      KVM: PPC: Added one_reg interface for timer registers · 78accda4
      Bharat Bhushan 提交于
      If userspace wants to change some specific bits of TSR
      (timer status register) then it uses GET/SET_SREGS ioctl interface.
      So the steps will be:
            i)   user-space will make get ioctl,
            ii)  change TSR in userspace
            iii) then make set ioctl.
      It can happen that TSR gets changed by kernel after step i) and
      before step iii).
      
      To avoid this we have added below one_reg ioctls for oring and clearing
      specific bits in TSR. This patch adds one registerface for:
           1) setting specific bit in TSR (timer status register)
           2) clearing specific bit in TSR (timer status register)
           3) setting/getting the TCR register. There are cases where we want to only
              change TCR and not TSR. Although we can uses SREGS without
              KVM_SREGS_E_UPDATE_TSR flag but I think one reg is better. I am open
              if someone feels we should use SREGS only here.
           4) getting/setting TSR register

      metag: Internal and external irqchips · 5698c50d
      James Hogan 提交于
      Meta core internal interrupts (from HWSTATMETA and friends) are vectored
      onto the TR1 core trigger for the current thread. This is demultiplexed
      in irq-metag.c to individual Linux IRQs for each internal interrupt.
      
      External SoC interrupts (from HWSTATEXT and friends) are vectored onto
      the TR2 core trigger for the current thread. This is demultiplexed in
      irq-metag-ext.c to individual Linux IRQs for each external SoC interrupt.
      The external irqchip has devicetree bindings for configuring the number
      of irq banks and the type of masking available.

      Don Morris reproduced on a HP z620 workstation, and bisected it to
      commit e8d19552 ("acpi, memory-hotplug: parse SRAT before memblock
      is ready")
      
      It turns out movable_map has some problems, and it breaks several things
      
      1. numa_init is called several times, NOT just for srat. so those
      	nodes_clear(numa_nodes_parsed)
      	memset(&numa_meminfo, 0, sizeof(numa_meminfo))
         can not be just removed.  Need to consider sequence is: numaq, srat, amd, dummy.
         and make fall back path working.
      
      2. simply split acpi_numa_init to early_parse_srat.
         a. that early_parse_srat is NOT called for ia64, so you break ia64.
         b.  for (i = 0; i < MAX_LOCAL_APIC; i++)
      	     set_apicid_to_node(i, NUMA_NO_NODE)
           still left in numa_init. So it will just clear result from early_parse_srat.
           it should be moved before that....
         c.  it breaks ACPI_TABLE_OVERIDE...as the acpi table scan is moved
             early before override from INITRD is settled.
      
      3. that patch TITLE is total misleading, there is NO x86 in the title,
         but it changes critical x86 code. It caused x86 guys did not
         pay attention to find the problem early. Those patches really should
         be routed via tip/x86/mm.
      
      4. after that commit, following range can not use movable ram:
        a. real_mode code.... well..funny, legacy Node0 [0,1M) could be hot-removed?
        b. initrd... it will be freed after booting, so it could be on movable...
        c. crashkernel for kdump...: looks like we can not put kdump kernel above 4G
      	anymore.
        d. init_mem_mapping: can not put page table high anymore.
        e. initmem_init: vmemmap can not be high local node anymore. That is
           not good.
      
      If node is hotplugable, the mem related range like page table and
      vmemmap could be on the that node without problem and should be on that
      node.
      
      We have workaround patch that could fix some problems, but some can not
      be fixed.
      
      So just remove that offending commit and related ones including:
      
       f7210e6c ("mm/memblock.c: use CONFIG_HAVE_MEMBLOCK_NODE_MAP to
          protect movablecore_map in memblock_overlaps_region().")
      
       01a178a9 ("acpi, memory-hotplug: support getting hotplug info from
          SRAT")
      
       27168d38 ("acpi, memory-hotplug: extend movablemem_map ranges to
          the end of node")
      
       e8d19552 ("acpi, memory-hotplug: parse SRAT before memblock is
          ready")
      
       fb06bc8e ("page_alloc: bootmem limit with movablecore_map")
      
       42f47e27 ("page_alloc: make movablemem_map have higher priority")
      
       6981ec31 ("page_alloc: introduce zone_movable_limit[] to keep
          movable limit for nodes")
      
       34b71f1e ("page_alloc: add movable_memmap kernel parameter")
      
       4d59a751 ("x86: get pg_data_t's memory from other node")
      
      Later we should have patches that will make sure kernel put page table
      and vmemmap on local node ram instead of push them down to node0.  Also
      need to find way to put other kernel used ram to local node ram.

      dma-buf: implement vmap refcounting in the interface logic · f00b4dad
      Daniel Vetter 提交于
      All drivers which implement this need to have some sort of refcount to
      allow concurrent vmap usage. Hence implement this in the dma-buf core.
      
      To protect against concurrent calls we need a lock, which potentially
      causes new funny locking inversions. But this shouldn't be a problem
      for exporters with statically allocated backing storage, and more
      dynamic drivers have decent issues already anyway.
      
      Inspired by some refactoring patches from Aaron Plattner, who
      implemented the same idea, but only for drm/prime drivers.
      
      v2: Check in dma_buf_release that no dangling vmaps are left.
      Suggested by Aaron Plattner. We might want to do similar checks for
      attachments, but that's for another patch. Also fix up ERR_PTR return
      for vmap.
      
      v3: Check whether the passed-in vmap address matches with the cached
      one for vunmap. Eventually we might want to remove that parameter -
      compared to the kmap functions there's no need for the vaddr for
      unmapping.  Suggested by Chris Wilson.
      
      v4: Fix a brown-paper-bag bug spotted by Aaron Plattner.
