Provide hooks for PPC64 to allow memory models to be informed of installed memory areas. This allows SPARSEMEM to instantiate mem_map for the populated areas.

The part of the sparsemem patch which modifies memmap_init_zone() has recently become a problem. It changes behavior so that there is a call to pfn_to_page() for each individual page inside of a node's range: node_start_pfn through node_end_pfn. It used to simply do this once, at the beginning of the node, but having sparsemem's non-contiguous mem_map[]s inside of a node made it necessary to change. Mike Kravetz recently wrote a patch which made the NUMA code accept some new kinds of layouts. The system's memory was laid out like this, with node 0's memory in two pieces: one before and one after node 1's memory: Node 0: +++++ +++++ Node 1: +++++ Previous behavior before Mike's patch was to assign nodes like this: Node 0: 00000 XXXXX Node 1: 11111 Where the 'X' areas were simply thrown away. The new behavior was to make the pg_data_t span node 0 across all of its areas, including areas that are really node 1's: Node 0: 000000000000000 Node 1: 11111 This wastes a little bit of mem_map space, but ends up being OK, and more fully utilizes the system's memory. memmap_init_zone() initializes all of the "struct page"s for node 0, even for the "hole", but those never get used, because there is no pfn_to_page() that resolves to those pages. However, only calling pfn_to_page() once, memmap_init_zone() always uses the pages that were allocated for node0->node_mem_map because: struct page *start = pfn_to_page(start_pfn); // effectively start = &node->node_mem_map[0] for (page = start; page < (start + size); page++) { init_page_here();... page++; } Slow, and wasteful, but generally harmless. But, modify that to call pfn_to_page() for each loop iteration (like sparsemem does): for (pfn = start_pfn; pfn < < (start_pfn + size); pfn++++) { page = pfn_to_page(pfn); } And you end up trying to initialize node 1's pages too early, along with bogus data from node 0. This patch checks for those weird layouts and declines to touch the pages, making the more frequent pfn_to_page() calls OK to do.

This patch changes some of the default behavior in the ppc64 Kconfig file that was recently changed/added to 2.6.12-rc2-mm1 by Dave Hansen in preparation for SPARSEMEM. Patch allows the display of both FLAT and DISCONTIG models on pseries. As before, default is DISCONTIG for SMP and PSERIES and FLAT for others.

For all architectures, this just means that you'll see a "Memory Model" choice in your architecture menu. For those that implement DISCONTIGMEM, you may eventually want to make your ARCH_DISCONTIGMEM_ENABLE a "def_bool y" and make your users select DISCONTIGMEM right out of the new choice menu. The only disadvantage might be if you have some specific things that you need in your help option to explain something about DISCONTIGMEM.

While looking at code generated by gcc4.0 I noticed some functions still had frame pointers, even after we stopped ppc64 from defining CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER. It turns out kernel/Makefile hardwires -fno-omit-frame-pointer on when compiling schedule.c. Create CONFIG_SCHED_NO_NO_OMIT_FRAME_POINTER and define it on architectures that dont require frame pointers in sched.c code.

A bunch of drivers use ISA DMA helpers or their equivalents for platforms that have ISA with different DMA controller (a lot of ARM boxen). Currently there is no way to put such dependency in Kconfig - CONFIG_ISA is not it (e.g. it is not set on platforms that have no ISA slots, but have on-board devices that pretend to be ISA ones). New symbol added - ISA_DMA_API. Set when we have functional enable_dma()/set_dma_mode()/etc. set of helpers. Next patches in the series will add missing dependencies for drivers that need them. I'm very carefully staying the hell out of the recurring flamefest on what exactly CONFIG_ISA would mean in ideal world - added symbol has a well-defined meaning and for now I really want to treat it as completely independent from the mess around CONFIG_ISA.

During some code inspection using gcc 4.0 I noticed a stack frame was being created for a number of functions that didnt require it. For example: c0000000000df944 <._spin_unlock>: c0000000000df944: fb e1 ff f0 std r31,-16(r1) c0000000000df948: f8 21 ff c1 stdu r1,-64(r1) c0000000000df94c: 7c 3f 0b 78 mr r31,r1 c0000000000df950: 7c 20 04 ac lwsync c0000000000df954: e8 21 00 00 ld r1,0(r1) c0000000000df958: 38 00 00 00 li r0,0 c0000000000df95c: 90 03 00 00 stw r0,0(r3) c0000000000df960: eb e1 ff f0 ld r31,-16(r1) c0000000000df964: 4e 80 00 20 blr It turns out we are adding -fno-omit-frame-pointer to ppc64 which is causing the above behaviour. Removing that flag results in much better code: c0000000000d5b30 <._spin_unlock>: c0000000000d5b30: 7c 20 04 ac lwsync c0000000000d5b34: 38 00 00 00 li r0,0 c0000000000d5b38: 90 03 00 00 stw r0,0(r3) c0000000000d5b3c: 4e 80 00 20 blr We dont require a frame pointer to debug on ppc64, so remove it.

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. Let it rip!
