The current PCI error recovery system keeps track of the number of PCI card resets, and refuses to bring a card back up if this number is too large. The goal of doing this was to avoid an infinite loop of resets if a card is obviously dead. However, if the failures are rare, but the machine has a high uptime, this mechanism might still be triggered; this is too harsh. This patch will avoids this problem by decrementing the fail count after an hour. Thus, as long as a pci card BSOD's less than 6 times an hour, it will continue to be reset indefinitely. If it's failure rate is greater than that, it will be taken off-line permanently. This patch is larger than it might otherwise be because it changes indentation by removing a pointless while-loop. The while loop is not needed, as the handler is invoked once fo each event (by schedule_work()); the loop is leftover cruft from an earlier implementation.

由 Haren Myneni 提交于
In some crash scenarios, the kexec CPU is not responding to an IPI sent by secondary CPU after init thread is forked, causing the system to drop into xmon during kdump boot. This problem can be reproduced each time when the debugger is enabled and soft-reset is used to invoke kdump boot. The first CPU sends an IPI - setting the IPI priority for all secondary cpus (xics_cause_ipi()). But some CPUs will enter into the xmon via soft-reset, i.e, not executing xics_ipi_action(). Hence, IPI is not cleared. When exited from the debugger, one of these CPUs could become the primary kexec CPU. Since the IPI is not cleared, causing this issue in kdump boot. This patch clears and EOI IPI for kexec CPU as well before the kdump boot started. Signed-off-by: NHaren Myneni <haren@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: NPaul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

We've seen several bugs caused by interrupt weirdness in the kdump kernel. Panicking from an interrupt handler means we fail to EOI the interrupt, and so the second kernel never gets that interrupt ever again. We also see hangs on JS20 where we take interrupts in the second kernel early during boot. This patch fixes both those problems, and although it adds more code to the crash path I think it is the best solution.

The new i2c implementation for PowerMac has a regression that causes the hardware to go out of state when probing non-existent devices. While fixing that, I also found & fixed a couple of other corner cases. This fixes booting with a pbbuttons version that scans the i2c bus for an LMU controller among others. Tested on a dual G5 with thermal control (which has heavy i2c activity) with no problem so far.

Turn on the DART already at 1GB. This is needed because of crippled devices in some systems, i.e. Airport Extreme cards, only supporting 30-bit DMA addresses. Otherwise, users with between 1 and 2GB of memory will need to manually enable it with iommu=force, and that's no good. Some simple performance tests show that there's a slight impact of enabling DART, but it's in the 1-3% range (kernel build with disk I/O as well as over NFS). iommu=off can still be used for those who don't want to deal with the overhead (and don't need it for any devices).

Andrew Morton pointed out that compiler might not inline the functions marked for inline in kprobes. There-by allowing the insertion of probes on these kprobes routines, which might cause recursion. This patch removes all such inline and adds them to kprobes section there by disallowing probes on all such routines. Some of the routines can even still be inlined, since these routines gets executed after the kprobes had done necessay setup for reentrancy.

We weren't using the recommended sequence for putting the CPU into nap mode. When I changed the idle loop, for some reason 7447A cpus started hanging when we put them into nap mode. Changing to the recommended sequence fixes that. The complexity here is that the recommended sequence is a loop that keeps putting the cpu back into nap mode. Clearly we need some way to break out of the loop when an interrupt (external interrupt, decrementer, performance monitor) occurs. Here we use a bit in the thread_info struct to indicate that we need this, and the exception entry code notices this and arranges for the exception to return to the value in the link register, thus breaking out of the loop. We use a new `local_flags' field in the thread_info which we can alter without needing to use an atomic update sequence. The PPC970 has the same recommended sequence, so we do the same thing there too. This also fixes a bug in the kernel stack overflow handling code on 32-bit, since it was causing a value that we needed in a register to get trashed. Signed-off-by: NPaul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

When restoring the 'decrementer', (Step 34) decrementer seems to be adjusted with the number of cycles th= at a spu thread has not been running.

Compile the 32bit kernel with -mcpu=powerpc. This reduces the imagesize when a compiler is used that defaults to -mtune=power4. It inserts lots of nops to please the 64bit cpu instruction scheduling.

Basically an in-kernel implementation of tee, which uses splice and the pipe buffers as an intelligent way to pass data around by reference. Where the user space tee consumes the input and produces a stdout and file output, this syscall merely duplicates the data inside a pipe to another pipe. No data is copied, the output just grabs a reference to the input pipe data. Signed-off-by: NJens Axboe <axboe@suse.de>

Current implementations define NODES_SHIFT in include/asm-xxx/numnodes.h for each arch. Its definition is sometimes configurable. Indeed, ia64 defines 5 NODES_SHIFT values in the current git tree. But it looks a bit messy. SGI-SN2(ia64) system requires 1024 nodes, and the number of nodes already has been changeable by config. Suitable node's number may be changed in the future even if it is other architecture. So, I wrote configurable node's number. This patch set defines just default value for each arch which needs multi nodes except ia64. But, it is easy to change to configurable if necessary. On ia64 the number of nodes can be already configured in generic ia64 and SN2 config. But, NODES_SHIFT is defined for DIG64 and HP'S machine too. So, I changed it so that all platforms can be configured via CONFIG_NODES_SHIFT. It would be simpler.

Since the powerpc 64k pages patch went in, systems that have SLBs (like Power4 iSeries) needed to have slb_initialize called to set up some variables for the SLB miss handler. This was not being called on the boot processor on iSeries, so on single cpu iSeries machines, we would get apparent memory curruption as soon as we entered user mode.

This fixes several problems with the lparcfg code. In case someone gets a sense of deja-vu, part of this was submitted last Sep, I thought the changes went in, but either got backed out, or just got lost. First, change the local_buffer declaration to be unsigned char *. We had a bad-math problem in a 2.4 tree which was built with a "-fsigned-char" parm. I dont believe we ever build with that parm now-a-days, but to be safe, I'd prefer the declaration be explicit. Second, fix a bad math calculation for splpar_strlen. Third, on the rtas_call for get-system-parameter, pass in RTAS_DATA_BUF_SIZE for the rtas_data_buf size, instead of letting random data determine the size. Until recently, we've had a sufficiently large 'random data' value get passed in, so the function just happens to have worked OK. Now it's getting passed a '0', which causes the rtas_call to return success, but no data shows up in the buffer. (oops!). This was found by the LTC test org. This is in a branch of code that only gets run on SPLPAR systems. Tested on power5 Lpar. Signed-off-by: NWill Schmidt <willschm@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: NPaul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
