      Tejun Heo 提交于
      include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
      
      percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
      included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
      in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
      universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.
      
      percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
      this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
      headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
      needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
      used as the basis of conversion.
      
        http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
      
      The script does the followings.
      
      * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
        only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
        gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.
      
      * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
        blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
        to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
        core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
        alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
        doesn't seem to be any matching order.
      
      * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
        because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
        an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
        file.
      
      The conversion was done in the following steps.
      
      1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
         over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
         and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
         files.
      
      2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
         some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
         embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
         inclusions to around 150 files.
      
      3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
         from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.
      
      4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
         e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
         APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.
      
      5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
         editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
         files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
         inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
         wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
         slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
         necessary.
      
      6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
      
      7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
         were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
         distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
         more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
         build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).
      
         * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
         * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
         * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
         * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
         * s390 SMP allmodconfig
         * alpha SMP allmodconfig
         * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig
      
      8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
         a separate patch and serve as bisection point.
      
      Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
      6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
      If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
      headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
      the specific arch.

      powerpc/pseries: iommu enablement for CMO · 6490c490
      Robert Jennings 提交于
      To support Cooperative Memory Overcommitment (CMO), we need to check
      for failure from some of the tce hcalls.
      
      These changes for the pseries platform affect the powerpc architecture;
      patches for the other affected platforms are included in this patch.
      
      pSeries platform IOMMU code changes:
       * platform TCE functions must handle H_NOT_ENOUGH_RESOURCES errors and
         return an error.
      
      Architecture IOMMU code changes:
       * Calls to ppc_md.tce_build need to check return values and return
         DMA_MAPPING_ERROR for transient errors.
      
      Architecture changes:
       * struct machdep_calls for tce_build*_pSeriesLP functions need to change
         to indicate failure.
       * all other platforms will need updates to iommu functions to match the new
         calling semantics; they will return 0 on success.  The other platforms
         default configs have been built, but no further testing was performed.

      [POWERPC] Use 4kB iommu pages even on 64kB-page systems · 5d2efba6
      Linas Vepstas 提交于
      The 10Gigabit ethernet device drivers appear to be able to chew
      up all 256MB of TCE mappings on pSeries systems, as evidenced by
      numerous error messages:
      
       iommu_alloc failed, tbl c0000000010d5c48 vaddr c0000000d875eff0 npages 1
      
      Some experimentation indicates that this is essentially because
      one 1500 byte ethernet MTU gets mapped as a 64K DMA region when
      the large 64K pages are enabled. Thus, it doesn't take much to
      exhaust all of the available DMA mappings for a high-speed card.
      
      This patch changes the iommu allocator to work with its own
      unique, distinct page size. Although the patch is long, its
      actually quite simple: it just #defines a distinct IOMMU_PAGE_SIZE
      and then uses this in all the places that matter.
      
      As a side effect, it also dramatically improves network performance
      on platforms with H-calls on iommu translation inserts/removes (since
      we no longer call it 16 times for a 1500 bytes packet when the iommu HW
      is still 4k).
      
      In the future, we might want to make the IOMMU_PAGE_SIZE a variable
      in the iommu_table instance, thus allowing support for different HW
      page sizes in the iommu itself.

      [PATCH] powerpc: Lower threshold for DART enablement to 1GB · 28897731
      Olof Johansson 提交于
      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).

      [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: Kill ppcdebug · dcad47fc
      David Gibson 提交于
      The ancient ppcdebug/PPCDBG mechanism is now only used in two places.
      First, in the hash setup code, one of the bits allows the size of the
      hash table to be reduced by a factor of 8 - which would be better
      accomplished with a command line option for that purpose.  The other
      was a bunch of bus walking related messages in the iSeries code, which
      would seem to be insufficient reason to keep the mechanism.
      
      This patch removes the last traces of this mechanism.
      
      Built and booted on iSeries and pSeries POWER5 LPAR (ARCH=powerpc).

      [PATCH] Separate pci bits out of struct device_node · 1635317f
      Paul Mackerras 提交于
      This patch pulls the PCI-related junk out of struct device_node and
      puts it in a separate structure, struct pci_dn.  The device_node now
      just has a void * pointer in it, which points to a struct pci_dn for
      nodes that represent PCI devices.  It could potentially be used in
      future for device-specific data for other sorts of devices, such as
      virtual I/O devices.

      Linus Torvalds 提交于
      Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
      even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
      archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
      3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
      git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
      infrastructure for it.
