      calgary iommu: use the first kernels TCE tables in kdump · 95b68dec
      由 Chandru 提交于 
      kdump kernel fails to boot with calgary iommu and aacraid driver on a x366
box.  The ongoing dma's of aacraid from the first kernel continue to exist
until the driver is loaded in the kdump kernel.  Calgary is initialized
prior to aacraid and creation of new tce tables causes wrong dma's to
occur.  Here we try to get the tce tables of the first kernel in kdump
kernel and use them.  While in the kdump kernel we do not allocate new tce
tables but instead read the base address register contents of calgary
iommu and use the tables that the registers point to.  With these changes
the kdump kernel and hence aacraid now boots normally.

      gpiolib: allow user-selection · 7444a72e
      由 Michael Buesch 提交于 
      This patch adds functionality to the gpio-lib subsystem to make it
possible to enable the gpio-lib code even if the architecture code didn't
request to get it built in.

The archtitecture code does still need to implement the gpiolib accessor
functions in its asm/gpio.h file.  This patch adds the implementations for
x86 and PPC.

With these changes it is possible to run generic GPIO expansion cards on
every architecture that implements the trivial wrapper functions.  Support
for more architectures can easily be added.

      gpio: sysfs interface · d8f388d8
      由 David Brownell 提交于 
      This adds a simple sysfs interface for GPIOs.

    /sys/class/gpio
    	/export ... asks the kernel to export a GPIO to userspace
    	/unexport ... to return a GPIO to the kernel
        /gpioN ... for each exported GPIO #N
	    /value ... always readable, writes fail for input GPIOs
	    /direction ... r/w as: in, out (default low); write high, low
	/gpiochipN ... for each gpiochip; #N is its first GPIO
	    /base ... (r/o) same as N
	    /label ... (r/o) descriptive, not necessarily unique
	    /ngpio ... (r/o) number of GPIOs; numbered N .. N+(ngpio - 1)

GPIOs claimed by kernel code may be exported by its owner using a new
gpio_export() call, which should be most useful for driver debugging.
Such exports may optionally be done without a "direction" attribute.

Userspace may ask to take over a GPIO by writing to a sysfs control file,
helping to cope with incomplete board support or other "one-off"
requirements that don't merit full kernel support:

  echo 23 > /sys/class/gpio/export
	... will gpio_request(23, "sysfs") and gpio_export(23);
	use /sys/class/gpio/gpio-23/direction to (re)configure it,
	when that GPIO can be used as both input and output.
  echo 23 > /sys/class/gpio/unexport
	... will gpio_free(23), when it was exported as above

The extra D-space footprint is a few hundred bytes, except for the sysfs
resources associated with each exported GPIO.  The additional I-space
footprint is about two thirds of the current size of gpiolib (!).  Since
no /dev node creation is involved, no "udev" support is needed.

Related changes:

  * This adds a device pointer to "struct gpio_chip".  When GPIO
    providers initialize that, sysfs gpio class devices become children of
    that device instead of being "virtual" devices.

  * The (few) gpio_chip providers which have such a device node have
    been updated.

  * Some gpio_chip drivers also needed to update their module "owner"
    field ...  for which missing kerneldoc was added.

  * Some gpio_chips don't support input GPIOs.  Those GPIOs are now
    flagged appropriately when the chip is registered.

Based on previous patches, and discussion both on and off LKML.

A Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-gpio update is ready to submit once this
merges to mainline.

      kprobes: improve kretprobe scalability with hashed locking · ef53d9c5
      由 Srinivasa D S 提交于 
      Currently list of kretprobe instances are stored in kretprobe object (as
used_instances,free_instances) and in kretprobe hash table.  We have one
global kretprobe lock to serialise the access to these lists.  This causes
only one kretprobe handler to execute at a time.  Hence affects system
performance, particularly on SMP systems and when return probe is set on
lot of functions (like on all systemcalls).

Solution proposed here gives fine-grain locks that performs better on SMP
system compared to present kretprobe implementation.

Solution:

 1) Instead of having one global lock to protect kretprobe instances
    present in kretprobe object and kretprobe hash table.  We will have
    two locks, one lock for protecting kretprobe hash table and another
    lock for kretporbe object.

 2) We hold lock present in kretprobe object while we modify kretprobe
    instance in kretprobe object and we hold per-hash-list lock while
    modifying kretprobe instances present in that hash list.  To prevent
    deadlock, we never grab a per-hash-list lock while holding a kretprobe
    lock.

 3) We can remove used_instances from struct kretprobe, as we can
    track used instances of kretprobe instances using kretprobe hash
    table.

Time duration for kernel compilation ("make -j 8") on a 8-way ppc64 system
with return probes set on all systemcalls looks like this.

      inflate: refactor inflate malloc code · 2d6ffcca
      由 Thomas Petazzoni 提交于 
      Inflate requires some dynamic memory allocation very early in the boot
process and this is provided with a set of four functions:
malloc/free/gzip_mark/gzip_release.

The old inflate code used a mark/release strategy rather than implement
free.  This new version instead keeps a count on the number of outstanding
allocations and when it hits zero, it resets the malloc arena.

This allows removing all the mark and release implementations and unifying
all the malloc/free implementations.

The architecture-dependent code must define two addresses:
 - free_mem_ptr, the address of the beginning of the area in which
   allocations should be made
 - free_mem_end_ptr, the address of the end of the area in which
   allocations should be made. If set to 0, then no check is made on
   the number of allocations, it just grows as much as needed

The architecture-dependent code can also provide an arch_decomp_wdog()
function call.  This function will be called several times during the
decompression process, and allow to notify the watchdog that the system is
still running.  If an architecture provides such a call, then it must
define ARCH_HAS_DECOMP_WDOG so that the generic inflate code calls
arch_decomp_wdog().

Work initially done by Matt Mackall, updated to a recent version of the
kernel and improved by me.

      powerpc/pseries: vio bus support for CMO · a90ab95a
      由 Robert Jennings 提交于 
      This is a large patch but the normal code path is not affected.  For
non-pSeries platforms the code is ifdef'ed out and for non-CMO enabled
pSeries systems this does not affect the normal code path.  Devices that
do not perform DMA operations do not need modification with this patch.
The function get_desired_dma was renamed from get_io_entitlement for
clarity.

Overview

Cooperative Memory Overcommitment (CMO) allows for a set of OS partitions
to be run with less RAM than the aggregate needs of the group of
partitions.  The firmware will balance memory between the partitions
and page in/out memory as needed.  Based on the number and type of IO
adpaters preset each partition is allocated an amount of memory for
DMA operations and this allocation will be guaranteed to the partition;
this is referred to as the partition's 'entitlement'.

Partitions running in a CMO environment can only have virtual IO devices
present.  The VIO bus layer will manage the IO entitlement for the system.
Accounting, at a system and per-device level, is tracked in the VIO bus
code and exposed via sysfs.  A set of dma_ops functions are added to
the bus to allow for this accounting.

Bus initialization

At initialization, the bus will calculate the minimum needs of the system
based on providing each device present with a standard minimum entitlement
along with a spare allocation for the bus to handle hotplug events.
If the minimum needs can not be met the system boot will be halted.

Device changes

The significant changes for devices while running under CMO are that the
devices must specify how much dedicated IO entitlement they desire and
must also handle DMA mapping errors that can occur due to constrained
IO memory.  The virtual IO drivers are modified to silence errors when
DMA mappings fail for CMO and handle these failures gracefully.

Each devices will be guaranteed a minimum entitlement that can always
be mapped.  Devices will specify how much entitlement they desire and
the VIO bus will attempt to provide for this.  Devices can change their
desired entitlement level at any point in time to address particular needs
(via vio_cmo_set_dev_desired()), not just at device probe time.

VIO bus changes

The system will have a particular entitlement level available from which
it can provide memory to the devices.  The bus defines two pools of memory
within this entitlement, the reserved and excess pools.  Each device is
provided with it's own entitlement no less than a system defined minimum
entitlement and no greater than what the device has specified as it's
desired entitlement.  The entitlement provided to devices comes from the
reserve pool.  The reserve pool can also contain a spare allocation as
large as the system defined minimum entitlement which is used for device
hotplug events.  Any entitlement not needed to fulfill the needs of a
reserve pool is placed in the excess pool.  Each device is guaranteed
that it can map up to it's entitled level; additional mapping are possible
as long as there is unmapped memory in the excess pool.

Bus probe

As the system starts, each device is given an entitlement equal only
to the system defined minimum entitlement.  The reserve pool is equal
to the sum of these entitlements, plus a spare allocation.  The VIO bus
also tracks the aggregate desired entitlement of all the devices.  If the
system desired entitlement is greater than the size of the reserve pool,
when devices unmap IO memory it will be reserved and a balance operation
will be scheduled for some time in the future.

Entitlement balancing

The balance function tries to fairly distribute entitlement between the
devices in the system with the goal of providing each device with it's
desired amount of entitlement.  Devices using more than what would be
ideal will have their entitled set-point adjusted; this will effectively
set a goal for lower IO memory usage as future mappings can fail and
deallocations will trigger a balance operation to distribute the newly
unmapped memory.  A fair distribution of entitlement can take several
balance operations to achieve.  Entitlement changes and device DLPAR
events will alter the state of CMO and will trigger balance operations.

Hotplug events

The VIO bus allows for changes in system entitlement at run-time via
'vio_cmo_entitlement_update()'.  When devices are added the hotplug
device event will be preceded by a system entitlement increase and this
is reversed when devices are removed.

The following changes are made that the VIO bus layer for CMO:
 * add IO memory accounting per device structure.
 * add IO memory entitlement query function to driver structure.
 * during vio bus probe, if CMO is enabled, check that driver has
   memory entitlement query function defined.  Fail if function not defined.
 * fail to register driver if io entitlement function not defined.
 * create set of dma_ops at vio level for CMO that will track allocations
   and return DMA failures once entitlement is reached.  Entitlement will
   limited by overall system entitlement.  Devices will have a reserved
   quantity of memory that is guaranteed, the rest can be used as available.
 * expose entitlement, current allocation, desired allocation, and the
   allocation error counter for devices to the user through sysfs
 * provide mechanism for changing a device's desired entitlement at run time
   for devices as an exported function and sysfs tunable
 * track any DMA failures for entitled IO memory for each vio device.
 * check entitlement against available system entitlement on device add
 * track entitlement metrics (high water mark, current usage)
 * provide function to reset high water mark
 * provide minimum and desired entitlement numbers at a bus level
 * provide drivers with a minimum guaranteed entitlement
 * balance available entitlement between devices to satisfy their needs
 * handle system entitlement changes and device hotplug
