      [POWERPC] Add new interrupt mapping core and change platforms to use it · 0ebfff14
      Benjamin Herrenschmidt 提交于
      This adds the new irq remapper core and removes the old one.  Because
      there are some fundamental conflicts with the old code, like the value
      of NO_IRQ which I'm now setting to 0 (as per discussions with Linus),
      etc..., this commit also changes the relevant platform and driver code
      over to use the new remapper (so as not to cause difficulties later
      in bisecting).
      
      This patch removes the old pre-parsing of the open firmware interrupt
      tree along with all the bogus assumptions it made to try to renumber
      interrupts according to the platform. This is all to be handled by the
      new code now.
      
      For the pSeries XICS interrupt controller, a single remapper host is
      created for the whole machine regardless of how many interrupt
      presentation and source controllers are found, and it's set to match
      any device node that isn't a 8259.  That works fine on pSeries and
      avoids having to deal with some of the complexities of split source
      controllers vs. presentation controllers in the pSeries device trees.
      
      The powerpc i8259 PIC driver now always requests the legacy interrupt
      range. It also has the feature of being able to match any device node
      (including NULL) if passed no device node as an input. That will help
      porting over platforms with broken device-trees like Pegasos who don't
      have a proper interrupt tree.

      [PATCH] Notifier chain update: API changes · e041c683
      Alan Stern 提交于
      The kernel's implementation of notifier chains is unsafe.  There is no
      protection against entries being added to or removed from a chain while the
      chain is in use.  The issues were discussed in this thread:
      
          http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=113018709002036&w=2
      
      We noticed that notifier chains in the kernel fall into two basic usage
      classes:
      
      	"Blocking" chains are always called from a process context
      	and the callout routines are allowed to sleep;
      
      	"Atomic" chains can be called from an atomic context and
      	the callout routines are not allowed to sleep.
      
      We decided to codify this distinction and make it part of the API.  Therefore
      this set of patches introduces three new, parallel APIs: one for blocking
      notifiers, one for atomic notifiers, and one for "raw" notifiers (which is
      really just the old API under a new name).  New kinds of data structures are
      used for the heads of the chains, and new routines are defined for
      registration, unregistration, and calling a chain.  The three APIs are
      explained in include/linux/notifier.h and their implementation is in
      kernel/sys.c.
      
      With atomic and blocking chains, the implementation guarantees that the chain
      links will not be corrupted and that chain callers will not get messed up by
      entries being added or removed.  For raw chains the implementation provides no
      guarantees at all; users of this API must provide their own protections.  (The
      idea was that situations may come up where the assumptions of the atomic and
      blocking APIs are not appropriate, so it should be possible for users to
      handle these things in their own way.)
      
      There are some limitations, which should not be too hard to live with.  For
      atomic/blocking chains, registration and unregistration must always be done in
      a process context since the chain is protected by a mutex/rwsem.  Also, a
      callout routine for a non-raw chain must not try to register or unregister
      entries on its own chain.  (This did happen in a couple of places and the code
      had to be changed to avoid it.)
      
      Since atomic chains may be called from within an NMI handler, they cannot use
      spinlocks for synchronization.  Instead we use RCU.  The overhead falls almost
      entirely in the unregister routine, which is okay since unregistration is much
      less frequent that calling a chain.
      
      Here is the list of chains that we adjusted and their classifications.  None
      of them use the raw API, so for the moment it is only a placeholder.
      
        ATOMIC CHAINS
        -------------
      arch/i386/kernel/traps.c:		i386die_chain
      arch/ia64/kernel/traps.c:		ia64die_chain
      arch/powerpc/kernel/traps.c:		powerpc_die_chain

      kernel/profile.c:			task_free_notifier
      net/bluetooth/hci_core.c:		hci_notifier
      net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_conntrack_core.c:	ip_conntrack_chain
      net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_conntrack_core.c:	ip_conntrack_expect_chain
      net/ipv6/addrconf.c:			inet6addr_chain
      net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_core.c:	nf_conntrack_chain
      net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_core.c:	nf_conntrack_expect_chain
      net/netlink/af_netlink.c:		netlink_chain
      
        BLOCKING CHAINS
        ---------------
      arch/powerpc/platforms/pseries/reconfig.c:	pSeries_reconfig_chain
      arch/s390/kernel/process.c:		idle_chain
      arch/x86_64/kernel/process.c		idle_notifier
      drivers/base/memory.c:			memory_chain
      drivers/cpufreq/cpufreq.c		cpufreq_policy_notifier_list
      drivers/cpufreq/cpufreq.c		cpufreq_transition_notifier_list
      drivers/macintosh/adb.c:		adb_client_list
      drivers/macintosh/via-pmu.c		sleep_notifier_list
      drivers/macintosh/via-pmu68k.c		sleep_notifier_list
      drivers/macintosh/windfarm_core.c	wf_client_list
      drivers/usb/core/notify.c		usb_notifier_list
      drivers/video/fbmem.c			fb_notifier_list
      kernel/cpu.c				cpu_chain

      kernel/sys.c				reboot_notifier_list
      net/core/dev.c				netdev_chain
      net/decnet/dn_dev.c:			dnaddr_chain
      net/ipv4/devinet.c:			inetaddr_chain
      
      It's possible that some of these classifications are wrong.  If they are,
      please let us know or submit a patch to fix them.  Note that any chain that
      gets called very frequently should be atomic, because the rwsem read-locking
      used for blocking chains is very likely to incur cache misses on SMP systems.
      (However, if the chain's callout routines may sleep then the chain cannot be
      atomic.)
      
      The patch set was written by Alan Stern and Chandra Seetharaman, incorporating
      material written by Keith Owens and suggestions from Paul McKenney and Andrew
      Morton.

      [PATCH] 3/5 powerpc: Add platform functions interpreter · 5b9ca526
      Benjamin Herrenschmidt 提交于
      This is the platform function interpreter itself along with the backends
      for UniN/U3/U4, mac-io, GPIOs and i2c. It adds the ability to execute
      those do-platform-* scripts in the device-tree (at least for most
      devices for which a backend is provided). This should replace the clock
      spreading hacks properly. It might also have an impact on all sort of
      machines since some of the scripts marked "at init" will now be executed
      on boot (or some other on sleep/wakeup), those will possibly do things
      that the kernel didn't do at all, like setting some values into some i2c
      devices (changing thermal sensor calibration or conversion rate) etc...
      Thus regression testing is MUCH welcome. Also loook for errors in dmesg.
      That's also why I've left rather verbose debugging enabled in this
      version of the patch.
      
      (I do expect some Windtunnel G4s to show some errors as they have an i2c
      clock chip on the PMU bus that uses some primitives that the i2c backend
      doesn't implement yet. I really need users that have one of those
      machine to come back to me so we can get that done right, though the
      errors themselves should be harmless, I suspect the machine might not
      run at full speed).

      [PATCH] 1/5 powerpc: Rework PowerMac i2c part 1 · 730745a5
      Benjamin Herrenschmidt 提交于
      This is the first part of a rework of the PowerMac i2c code. It
      completely reworks the "low_i2c" layer. It is now more flexible,
      supports KeyWest, SMU and PMU i2c busses, and provides functions to
      match device nodes to i2c busses and adapters.
      
      This patch also extends & fix some bugs in the SMU driver related to i2c
      support and removes the clock spreading hacks from the pmac feature code
      rather than adapting them to the new API since they'll be replaced by
      the platform function code completely in patch 3/5

      The udbg low level io layer has an issue with udbg_getc() returning a

      available input device could end up turned into 0xff, filling your
      display with bogus characters. This fixes it, along with adding a little

      [PATCH] powerpc: Unify udbg (#2) · 51d3082f
      Benjamin Herrenschmidt 提交于
      This patch unifies udbg for both ppc32 and ppc64 when building the
      merged achitecture. xmon now has a single "back end". The powermac udbg
      stuff gets enriched with some ADB capabilities and btext output. In
      addition, the early_init callback is now called on ppc32 as well,
      approx. in the same order as ppc64 regarding device-tree manipulations.
      The init sequences of ppc32 and ppc64 are getting closer, I'll unify
      them in a later patch.
      
      For now, you can force udbg to the scc using "sccdbg" or to btext using
      "btextdbg" on powermacs. I'll implement a cleaner way of forcing udbg
      output to something else than the autodetected OF output device in a
      later patch.

      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.

      [PATCH] ppc32: Fix nasty sleep/wakeup problem · 0086b5ec
      Benjamin Herrenschmidt 提交于
      Despite all the care lately in making the powermac sleep/wakeup as
      robust as possible, there is still a nasty related to the use of cpufreq
      on PMU based machines.  Unfortunately, it affects paulus old powerbook
      so I have to fix it :)
      
      We didn't manage to understand what is precisely going on, it leads to
      memory corruption and might have to do with RAM not beeing properly
      refreshed when a cpufreq transition is done right before the sleep.
      
      The best workaround (and less intrusive at this point) we could come up
      with is included in this patch.  We basically do _not_ force a switch to
      high speed on suspend anymore (that is what is causing the problem) on
      those machines.  We still force a speed switch on wakeup (since we don't
      know what speed we are coming back from sleep at, and that seems to work
      fine).
      
      Since, during this short interval, the actual CPU speed might be
      incorrect, we also hack around by multiplying loops_per_jiffy by 2 (max
      speed factor on those machines) during early wakeup stage to make sure
      udelay's during that time aren't too short.
      
      For after 2.6.12, we'll change udelay implementation to use the CPU
      timebase (which is always constant) instead like we do on ppc64 and thus
      get rid of all those problems.

      [PATCH] ppc32: Fix cpufreq vs. sleep issue · b16eeb47
      Benjamin Herrenschmidt 提交于
      Recent kernels occasionally trigger a PMU timeout on some mac laptops,
      typically on wakeup from sleep.  This seem to be caused by either a too big
      latency caused by the cpufreq switch on wakeup from sleep or by an
      interrupt beeing lost due to the reset of the interrupt controller done
      during wakeup.
      
      This patch makes that code more robust by stopping PMU auto poll activity
      around cpufreq changes on machines that use the PMU for such changes (long
      latency switching involving a CPU hard reset and flush of all caches) and
      by removing the reset of the open pic interrupt controller on wakeup (that
      can cause the loss of an interrupt and Darwin doesn't do it, so it must not
      be necessary).
