The Axon bridge chip used on new Cell/B.E. based blade servers comes with a DDR2 memory controller that can be used to attach cheap memory modules, as opposed to the high-speed XDR memory that is used by the CPU itself. Since the memory controller does not participate in the cache coherency protocol, we can not use the memory direcly for Linux applications, but by providing a block device it can be used for swap space, temporary file storage and through the use of the direct_access block device operation for mapping into user addresses, when it is mounted with an appropriate file system.

The platforms missing the "cpus" property in the "be" node are mono-Cell platforms such as CAB or Getaway. Therefore it is possible to assume that if there is no "cpus" properties under the "be" node then we can safely return the "device node" without more checking. This is a bit hacky but ... it allows it to work on these platforms.

This patch reorganizes the code of the driver into three files. Two cbe_cpufreq_pmi.c and cbe_cpufreq_pervasive.c care about hardware. cbe_cpufreq.c contains the logic. There is no changed behaviour, except that the PMI related function is now located in a seperate module cbe_cpufreq_pmi. This module will be required by cbe_cpufreq, if CONFIG_CBE_CPUFREQ_PMI has been set. Signed-off-by: NChristian Krafft <krafft@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: NArnd Bergmann <arnd.bergmann@de.ibm.com>

This patch fixes the initialization of the cbe_cpufreq driver. The code that initializes the PMI related functions was called per cpu: * registering cpufreq notifier block * registering a pmi handler This ends in a bug that the notifier block gets called in an endless loop. The initialization code is being put to the module init code path by this patch. This way it only gets called once.

The pmi driver got simplified by removing support for multiple devices. As there is no more than one pmi device per maschine, there is no need to specify the device for listening and sending messages. This way the caller (cbe_cpufreq) doesn't need to scan the device tree. When registering the handler on a board without a pmi interface, pmi.c will just return -ENODEV. The patch that fixed the breakage of cell_defconfig has been broken out of the earlier version of this patch. So this is the version that applies cleanly on top of it.

per cpu data section contains two types of data. One set which is exclusively accessed by the local cpu and the other set which is per cpu, but also shared by remote cpus. In the current kernel, these two sets are not clearely separated out. This can potentially cause the same data cacheline shared between the two sets of data, which will result in unnecessary bouncing of the cacheline between cpus. One way to fix the problem is to cacheline align the remotely accessed per cpu data, both at the beginning and at the end. Because of the padding at both ends, this will likely cause some memory wastage and also the interface to achieve this is not clean. This patch: Moves the remotely accessed per cpu data (which is currently marked as ____cacheline_aligned_in_smp) into a different section, where all the data elements are cacheline aligned. And as such, this differentiates the local only data and remotely accessed data cleanly.

I realise jprobes are a razor-blades-included type of interface, but that doesn't mean we can't try and make them safer to use. This guy I know once wrote code like this: struct jprobe jp = { .kp.symbol_name = "foo", .entry = "jprobe_foo" }; And then his kernel exploded. Oops. This patch adds an arch hook, arch_deref_entry_point() (I don't like it either) which takes the void * in a struct jprobe, and gives back the text address that it represents. We can then use that in register_jprobe() to check that the entry point we're passed is actually in the kernel text, rather than just some random value.

The TSEC/eTSEC can detect the interface to the PHY automatically, but it isn't able to detect whether the RGMII connection needs internal delay. So we need to detect that change in the device tree, propagate it to the platform data, and then check it if we're in RGMII. This fixes a bug on the 8641D HPCN board where the Vitesse PHY doesn't use the delay for RGMII. Signed-off-by: NAndy Fleming <afleming@freescale.com>

由 Amit Arora 提交于
fallocate() is a new system call being proposed here which will allow applications to preallocate space to any file(s) in a file system. Each file system implementation that wants to use this feature will need to support an inode operation called ->fallocate(). Applications can use this feature to avoid fragmentation to certain level and thus get faster access speed. With preallocation, applications also get a guarantee of space for particular file(s) - even if later the the system becomes full. Currently, glibc provides an interface called posix_fallocate() which can be used for similar cause. Though this has the advantage of working on all file systems, but it is quite slow (since it writes zeroes to each block that has to be preallocated). Without a doubt, file systems can do this more efficiently within the kernel, by implementing the proposed fallocate() system call. It is expected that posix_fallocate() will be modified to call this new system call first and incase the kernel/filesystem does not implement it, it should fall back to the current implementation of writing zeroes to the new blocks. ToDos: 1. Implementation on other architectures (other than i386, x86_64, and ppc). Patches for s390(x) and ia64 are already available from previous posts, but it was decided that they should be added later once fallocate is in the mainline. Hence not including those patches in this take. 2. Changes to glibc, a) to support fallocate() system call b) to make posix_fallocate() and posix_fallocate64() call fallocate() Signed-off-by: NAmit Arora <aarora@in.ibm.com>

The current generic bug implementation has a call to dump_stack() in case a WARN_ON(whatever) gets hit. Since report_bug(), which calls dump_stack(), gets called from an exception handler we can do better: just pass the pt_regs structure to report_bug() and pass it to show_regs() in case of a warning. This will give more debug informations like register contents, etc... In addition this avoids some pointless lines that dump_stack() emits, since it includes a stack backtrace of the exception handler which is of no interest in case of a warning. E.g. on s390 the following lines are currently always present in a stack backtrace if dump_stack() gets called from report_bug(): [<000000000001517a>] show_trace+0x92/0xe8) [<0000000000015270>] show_stack+0xa0/0xd0 [<00000000000152ce>] dump_stack+0x2e/0x3c [<0000000000195450>] report_bug+0x98/0xf8 [<0000000000016cc8>] illegal_op+0x1fc/0x21c [<00000000000227d6>] sysc_return+0x0/0x10 Acked-by: NJeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy@goop.org> Acked-by: NHaavard Skinnemoen <hskinnemoen@atmel.com> Cc: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Cc: Kyle McMartin <kyle@parisc-linux.org> Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Cc: Paul Mundt <lethal@linux-sh.org> Cc: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: NHeiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: NAndrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
