      [POWERPC] Fix vDSO page count calculation · 7ac9a137
      Benjamin Herrenschmidt 提交于
      The recent vDSO consolidation patches broke powerpc due to a mistake
      in the definition of MAXPAGES constants. This fixes it by moving to
      a dynamically allocated array of pages instead as I don't like much
      hard coded size limits. Also move the vdso initialisation to an initcall
      since it doesn't really need to be done -that- early.
      
      Applogies for not catching the breakage earlier, Roland _did_ CC me on
      his patches a while ago, I got busy with other things and forgot to test
      them.

      [PATCH] mm: use symbolic names instead of indices for zone initialisation · 6391af17
      Mel Gorman 提交于
      Arch-independent zone-sizing is using indices instead of symbolic names to
      offset within an array related to zones (max_zone_pfns).  The unintended
      impact is that ZONE_DMA and ZONE_NORMAL is initialised on powerpc instead
      of ZONE_DMA and ZONE_HIGHMEM when CONFIG_HIGHMEM is set.  As a result, the
      the machine fails to boot but will boot with CONFIG_HIGHMEM turned off.
      
      The following patch properly initialises the max_zone_pfns[] array and uses
      symbolic names instead of indices in each architecture using
      arch-independent zone-sizing.  Two users have successfully booted their
      powerpcs with it (one an ibook G4).  It has also been boot tested on x86,
      x86_64, ppc64 and ia64.  Please merge for 2.6.19-rc2.
      
      Credit to Benjamin Herrenschmidt for identifying the bug and rolling the
      first fix.  Additional credit to Johannes Berg and Andreas Schwab for
      reporting the problem and testing on powerpc.

      [PATCH] powerpc: Always panic if lmb_alloc() fails · d7a5b2ff
      Michael Ellerman 提交于
      Currently most callers of lmb_alloc() don't check if it worked or not, if it
      ever does weird bad things will probably happen. The few callers who do check
      just panic or BUG_ON.
      
      So make lmb_alloc() panic internally, to catch bugs at the source. The few
      callers who did check the result no longer need to.
      
      The only caller that did anything interesting with the return result was
      careful_allocation(). For it we create __lmb_alloc_base() which _doesn't_ panic
      automatically, a little messy, but passable.

      [PATCH] powerpc: Cleanup, consolidating icache dirtying logic · 09f5dc44
      David Gibson 提交于
      The code to mark a page as icache dirty (so that it will later be
      icache-dcache flushed when we try to execute from it) is duplicated in
      three places: flush_dcache_page() does this marking and nothing else,
      but clear_user_page() and copy_user_page() duplicate it, since those
      functions make the page icache dirty themselves.
      
      This patch makes those other functions call flush_dcache_page()
      instead, so the logic's all in one place.  This will make life less
      confusing if we ever need to tweak the details of the the lazy icache
      flush mechanism.

      [PATCH] powerpc: Fix sparsemem with memory holes [was Re: ppc64 oops..] · fb6d73d3
      Paul Mackerras 提交于
      This patch should fix the crashes we have been seeing on 64-bit
      powerpc systems with a memory hole when sparsemem is enabled.
      I'd appreciate it if people who know more about NUMA and sparsemem
      than me could look over it.
      
      There were two bugs.  The first was that if NUMA was enabled but there
      was no NUMA information for the machine, the setup_nonnuma() function
      was adding a single region, assuming memory was contiguous.  The
      second was that the loops in mem_init() and show_mem() assumed that
      all pages within the span of a pgdat were valid (had a valid struct
      page).
      
      I also fixed the incorrect setting of num_physpages that Mike Kravetz
      pointed out.

      [PATCH] powerpc: Merge vdso's and add vdso support to 32 bits kernel · a7f290da
      Benjamin Herrenschmidt 提交于
      This patch moves the vdso's to arch/powerpc, adds support for the 32
      bits vdso to the 32 bits kernel, rename systemcfg (finally !), and adds
      some new (still untested) routines to both vdso's: clock_gettime() with
      support for CLOCK_REALTIME and CLOCK_MONOTONIC, clock_getres() (same
      clocks) and get_tbfreq() for glibc to retreive the timebase frequency.
      
      Tom,Steve: The implementation of get_tbfreq() I've done for 32 bits
      returns a long long (r3, r4) not a long. This is such that if we ever
      add support for >4Ghz timebases on ppc32, the userland interface won't
      have to change.
      
      I have tested gettimeofday() using some glibc patches in both ppc32 and
      ppc64 kernels using 32 bits userland (I haven't had a chance to test a
      64 bits userland yet, but the implementation didn't change and was
      tested earlier). I haven't tested yet the new functions.

      [PATCH] ppc64: support 64k pages · 3c726f8d
      Benjamin Herrenschmidt 提交于
      Adds a new CONFIG_PPC_64K_PAGES which, when enabled, changes the kernel
      base page size to 64K.  The resulting kernel still boots on any
      hardware.  On current machines with 4K pages support only, the kernel
      will maintain 16 "subpages" for each 64K page transparently.
      
      Note that while real 64K capable HW has been tested, the current patch
      will not enable it yet as such hardware is not released yet, and I'm
      still verifying with the firmware architects the proper to get the
      information from the newer hypervisors.

      [PATCH] ppc: make phys_mem_access_prot() work with pfns instead of addresses · 8b150478
      Roland Dreier 提交于
      Change the phys_mem_access_prot() function to take a pfn instead of an
      address.  This allows mmap64() to work on /dev/mem for addresses above 4G
      on 32-bit architectures.  We start with a pfn in mmap_mem(), so there's no
      need to convert to an address; in fact, it's actively bad, since the
      conversion can overflow when the address is above 4G.
      
      Similarly fix the ppc32 page_is_ram() function to avoid a conversion to an
      address by directly comparing to max_pfn.  Working with max_pfn instead of
      high_memory fixes page_is_ram() to give the right answer for highmem pages.

      [PATCH] powerpc: Purge bootinfo.h · e37bc5df
      David Gibson 提交于
      With ARCH=powerpc we assume the presence of a device tree, so we don't
      require any support for the old bi_recs method of passing boot
      parameters.  Likewise, we've never needed it for ppc64, but we still
      had an include/asm-ppc64/bootinfo.h from which nothing was used.  This
      patch removes that file, and all references to it in arch/ppc64 and
      arch/powerpc.  A related, unused variable 'boot_mem_size' is also
      removed from setup_32.c.  The bootinfo stuff remains in ARCH=ppc for
      the time being.
      
      Built and booted on Power5 (ARCH=ppc64 and ARCH=powerpc), built for
      32-bit powermac (ARCH=powerpc and ARCH=ppc).

      powerpc: Merge lmb.c and make MM initialization use it. · 7c8c6b97

      This also creates merged versions of do_init_bootmem, paging_init
      and mem_init and moves them to arch/powerpc/mm/mem.c.  It gets rid
      of the mem_pieces stuff.
      
      I made memory_limit a parameter to lmb_enforce_memory_limit rather
      than a global referenced by that function.  This will require some
      small changes to ppc64 if we want to continue building ARCH=ppc64
      using the merged lmb.c.

      powerpc: Merge enough to start building in arch/powerpc. · 14cf11af
      Paul Mackerras 提交于
      This creates the directory structure under arch/powerpc and a bunch
      of Kconfig files.  It does a first-cut merge of arch/powerpc/mm,
      arch/powerpc/lib and arch/powerpc/platforms/powermac.  This is enough
      to build a 32-bit powermac kernel with ARCH=powerpc.
      
      For now we are getting some unmerged files from arch/ppc/kernel and
      arch/ppc/syslib, or arch/ppc64/kernel.  This makes some minor changes
      to files in those directories and files outside arch/powerpc.
      
      The boot directory is still not merged.  That's going to be interesting.
