      calgary iommu: use the first kernels TCE tables in kdump · 95b68dec
      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
      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
      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
      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
      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.
