      powerpc: Work around gcc's -fno-omit-frame-pointer bug · 7563dc64
      Tony Breeds 提交于
      This bug is causing random crashes
      (http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11414).
      
      -fno-omit-frame-pointer is only needed on powerpc when -pg is also
      supplied, and there is a gcc bug that causes incorrect code generation
      on 32-bit powerpc when -fno-omit-frame-pointer is used---it uses stack
      locations below the stack pointer, which is not allowed by the ABI
      because those locations can and sometimes do get corrupted by an
      interrupt.
      
      This ensures that CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER is only selected by ftrace.
      When CONFIG_FTRACE is enabled we also pass -mno-sched-epilog to work
      around the gcc codegen bug.

      We fix it by moving the actual freeing to outside the lock (the lock
      now only protects the list).
      
      The pool lock is also promoted to irq-safe (suggested by Dan). It's
      necessary because free_pool is now called outside the irq disabled
      region. So we need to protect against an interrupt handler which calls
      debug_object_init().

      Roland McGrath 提交于
      This adds the new function task_current_syscall() on machines where the
      asm/syscall.h interface is supported (CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_TRACEHOOK).  It's
      exported for modules to use in the future.  This function safely samples
      the state of a blocked thread to collect what system call it is blocked
      in, and the six system call argument registers.

      SL*B: drop kmem cache argument from constructor · 51cc5068

      Kmem cache passed to constructor is only needed for constructors that are
      themselves multiplexeres.  Nobody uses this "feature", nor does anybody uses
      passed kmem cache in non-trivial way, so pass only pointer to object.
      
      Non-trivial places are:
      	arch/powerpc/mm/init_64.c

      dma-mapping: add the device argument to dma_mapping_error() · 8d8bb39b
      FUJITA Tomonori 提交于
      Add per-device dma_mapping_ops support for CONFIG_X86_64 as POWER
      architecture does:
      
      This enables us to cleanly fix the Calgary IOMMU issue that some devices
      are not behind the IOMMU (http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/5/8/423).
      
      I think that per-device dma_mapping_ops support would be also helpful for
      KVM people to support PCI passthrough but Andi thinks that this makes it
      difficult to support the PCI passthrough (see the above thread).  So I
      CC'ed this to KVM camp.  Comments are appreciated.
      
      A pointer to dma_mapping_ops to struct dev_archdata is added.  If the
      pointer is non NULL, DMA operations in asm/dma-mapping.h use it.  If it's
      NULL, the system-wide dma_ops pointer is used as before.
      
      If it's useful for KVM people, I plan to implement a mechanism to register
      a hook called when a new pci (or dma capable) device is created (it works
      with hot plugging).  It enables IOMMUs to set up an appropriate
      dma_mapping_ops per device.
      
      The major obstacle is that dma_mapping_error doesn't take a pointer to the
      device unlike other DMA operations.  So x86 can't have dma_mapping_ops per
      device.  Note all the POWER IOMMUs use the same dma_mapping_error function
      so this is not a problem for POWER but x86 IOMMUs use different
      dma_mapping_error functions.
      
      The first patch adds the device argument to dma_mapping_error.  The patch
      is trivial but large since it touches lots of drivers and dma-mapping.h in
      all the architecture.
      
      This patch:
      
      dma_mapping_error() doesn't take a pointer to the device unlike other DMA
      operations.  So we can't have dma_mapping_ops per device.
      
      Note that POWER already has dma_mapping_ops per device but all the POWER
      IOMMUs use the same dma_mapping_error function.  x86 IOMMUs use device
      argument.
