      [PATCH] kexec code cleanup · 72414d3f
      Maneesh Soni 提交于
      o Following patch provides purely cosmetic changes and corrects CodingStyle
        guide lines related certain issues like below in kexec related files
      
        o braces for one line "if" statements, "for" loops,
        o more than 80 column wide lines,
        o No space after "while", "for" and "switch" key words
      
      o Changes:
        o take-2: Removed the extra tab before "case" key words.
        o take-3: Put operator at the end of line and space before "*/"

      [PATCH] kdump: Use real pt_regs from exception · 6e274d14
      Alexander Nyberg 提交于
      Makes kexec_crashdump() take a pt_regs * as an argument.  This allows to
      get exact register state at the point of the crash.  If we come from direct
      panic assertion NULL will be passed and the current registers saved before
      crashdump.
      
      This hooks into two places:
      die(): check the conditions under which we will panic when calling
      do_exit and go there directly with the pt_regs that caused the fatal
      fault.
      
      die_nmi(): If we receive an NMI lockup while in the kernel use the
      pt_regs and go directly to crash_kexec(). We're probably nested up badly
      at this point so this might be the only chance to escape with proper
      information.

      [PATCH] ppc64: kexec support for ppc64 · fce0d574
      R Sharada 提交于
      This patch implements the kexec support for ppc64 platforms.
      
      A couple of notes:
      
      1)  We copy the pages in virtual mode, using the full base kernel
          and a statically allocated stack.   At kexec_prepare time we
          scan the pages and if any overlap our (0, _end[]) range we
          return -ETXTBSY.
      
          On PowerPC 64 systems running in LPAR (logical partitioning)
          mode, only a small region of memory, referred to as the RMO,
          can be accessed in real mode.  Since Linux runs with only one
          zone of memory in the memory allocator, and it can be orders of
          magnitude more memory than the RMO, looping until we allocate
          pages in the source region is not feasible.  Copying in virtual
          means we don't have to write a hash table generation and call
          hypervisor to insert translations, instead we rely on the pinned
          kernel linear mapping.  The kernel already has move to linked
          location built in, so there is no requirement to load it at 0.
      
          If we want to load something other than a kernel, then a stub
          can be written to copy a linear chunk in real mode.
      
      2)  The start entry point gets passed parameters from the kernel.
          Slaves are started at a fixed address after copying code from
          the entry point.
      
          All CPUs get passed their firmware assigned physical id in r3
          (most calling conventions use this register for the first
          argument).
      
          This is used to distinguish each CPU from all other CPUs.
          Since firmware is not around, there is no other way to obtain
          this information other than to pass it somewhere.
      
          A single CPU, referred to here as the master and the one executing
          the kexec call, branches to start with the address of start in r4.
          While this can be calculated, we have to load it through a gpr to
          branch to this point so defining the register this is contained
          in is free.  A stack of unspecified size is available at r1
          (also common calling convention).
      
          All remaining running CPUs are sent to start at absolute address
          0x60 after copying the first 0x100 bytes from start to address 0.
          This convention was chosen because it matches what the kernel
          has been doing itself.  (only gpr3 is defined).
      
          Note: This is not quite the convention of the kexec bootblock v2
          in the kernel.  A stub has been written to convert between them,
          and we may adjust the kernel in the future to allow this directly
          without any stub.
      
      3)  Destination pages can be placed anywhere, even where they
          would not be accessible in real mode.  This will allow us to
          place ram disks above the RMO if we choose.

      [PATCH] consolidate PREEMPT options into kernel/Kconfig.preempt · cc19ca86

      This patch consolidates the CONFIG_PREEMPT and CONFIG_PREEMPT_BKL
      preemption options into kernel/Kconfig.preempt.  This, besides reducing
      source-code, also enables more centralized tweaking of preemption related

      [PATCH] i386 CPU hotplug · f3705136
      Zwane Mwaikambo 提交于
      (The i386 CPU hotplug patch provides infrastructure for some work which Pavel
      is doing as well as for ACPI S3 (suspend-to-RAM) work which Li Shaohua
      <shaohua.li@intel.com> is doing)
      
      The following provides i386 architecture support for safely unregistering and
      registering processors during runtime, updated for the current -mm tree.  In
      order to avoid dumping cpu hotplug code into kernel/irq/* i dropped the
      cpu_online check in do_IRQ() by modifying fixup_irqs().  The difference being
      that on cpu offline, fixup_irqs() is called before we clear the cpu from
      cpu_online_map and a long delay in order to ensure that we never have any
      queued external interrupts on the APICs.  There are additional changes to s390
      and ppc64 to account for this change.
      
      1) Add CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU
      2) disable local APIC timer on dead cpus.
      3) Disable preempt around irq balancing to prevent CPUs going down.
      4) Print irq stats for all possible cpus.
      5) Debugging check for interrupts on offline cpus.
      6) Hacky fixup_irqs() to redirect irqs when cpus go off/online.
      7) play_dead() for offline cpus to spin inside.
      8) Handle offline cpus set in flush_tlb_others().
      9) Grab lock earlier in smp_call_function() to prevent CPUs going down.
      10) Implement __cpu_disable() and __cpu_die().
      11) Enable local interrupts in cpu_enable() after fixup_irqs()
      12) Don't fiddle with NMI on dead cpu, but leave intact on other cpus.
      13) Program IRQ affinity whilst cpu is still in cpu_online_map on offline.

      [PATCH] Maple powerdown patch · d7152fe1
      David Gibson 提交于
      Currently reset and powerdown are not implemented on the Maple board,
      and attempting to do so will (incorrectly return).  This implements
      the proper communication with the service processor, allowing correct
      reset and powerdown on the Maple board, by communicating with the
      service processor.  If somehow it's unable to communicate with the
      service processor it will loop forever instead.
      
      Note that powerdown on the Maple will power down the CPUs, but not the
      fans or other board components due to hardware and firmware
      limitations.
