This addresses two items, which are unlikely to be hit if we trust drivers. The first is moving a memory barrier below where the vmerged SG count is passed back, but before the list is set to end. If those instructions were reordered, there could be an issue in iommu_unmap_sg(). The second is making sure we terminate the list on the failure case of iommu_map_sg(). If a driver does not look at the failure return code, it could pass a ill-formed SG list to iommu_unmap_sg().

You can't boot a kdump kernel via OF, not reliably anyway, the kernel being at 32 MB conflicts with the zImage wrapper etc. and it blows up. It's trivial to check in prom_init though, and this is early enough that we can actually drop back to OF where a reset-all will get you going again, which is kinda nice. I think this should go in for 2.6.16. Signed-off-by: NMichael Ellerman <michael@ellerman.id.au> Signed-off-by: NPaul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

To prevent problems later in boot, make sure we don't create zero-size lmb regions. I've checked all the callers, and at the moment no one should ever hit this.

In prom.c we run finish_node() on allnodes twice. The first time we just calculate how much memory we'll need, the second time we do the actual work. If the calculation stage determines that we need 0 bytes, then we should skip the lmb allocation. Although an alloc of zero will work, it has been seen to lead to a BUG_ON() in reserve_bootmem() on at least one machine.

The last two 8MB TLB entries are being incorrectly set by initial_mmu on 8xx.

i386 CPU init code accesses freed init memory when booting a newly-started processor after CPU hotplug. The cpu_devs array is searched to find the vendor and it contains pointers to freed data. Fix that by: 1. Zeroing entries for freed vendor data after bootup. 2. Changing Transmeta, NSC and UMC to all __init[data]. 3. Printing a warning (once only) and setting this_cpu to a safe default when the vendor is not found. This does not change behavior for AMD systems. They were broken already but no error was reported.

percpu_data blindly allocates bootmem memory to store NR_CPUS instances of cpudata, instead of allocating memory only for possible cpus. As a preparation for changing that, we need to convert various 0 -> NR_CPUS loops to use for_each_cpu(). (The above only applies to users of asm-generic/percpu.h. powerpc has gone it alone and is presently only allocating memory for present CPUs, so it's currently corrupting memory).

It also constains a printk reorder in swiotlb to state swiotlb enablement prior to describing the location of the bounce buffers, and a printk reorder to state gart enablement prior to describing the aperature. Also constains a whitespace cleanup in arch/x86_64/kernel/setup.c Tested (along with patch 2/2) on dual opteron with gart enabled, iommu=soft, and iommu=off.

Hack for 2.6.16. In 2.6.17 all code that uses NR_CPUs should be audited and changed to only touch possible CPUs. Don't mark the reference per cpu data init data (so it stays around after boot) and point all impossible CPUs to it. This way they reference some valid - although shared memory. Usually this is only initialization like INIT_LIST_HEADs and there won't be races because these CPUs never run. Still somewhat hackish.

On some broken motherboards (at least one NForce3 based AMD64 laptop) the PIT timer runs at a incorrect frequency. This patch adds a new option "apicpmtimer" that allows to use the APIC timer and calibrate it using the PMTimer. It requires the earlier patch that allows to run the main timer from the APIC. Specifying apicpmtimer implies apicmaintimer. The option defaults to off for now. I tested it on a few systems and the resulting APIC timer frequencies were usually a bit off, but always <1%, which should be tolerable. TBD figure out heuristic to enable this automatically on the affected systems TBD perhaps do it on all NForce3s or using DMI?

由 Kevin VanMaren 提交于
[ AK: I redid Kevin's fix to be simpler, but the idea and original analysis of the problem is from Kevin] This avoid allocation failures on some SATA systems like Nvidia CK8 when the IOMMU gets fragmented. Modern SATA devices have quite large queues (128 entries) and the FS with ext2/3 is good enough now that it often passes whole 128 page sg lists down to the driver. These require 512K of continuous free space in the IOMMU aperture to map when merged. When the IOMMU is fragmented this could lead to spurious IO errors due to failing mappings. Short term fix is to just try to map the SG list again unmerged page by page - this way fragmentation doesn't matter anymore. The code for that was already there, but it just wasn't enabled for the merge case. According to Kevin at least the Nvidia device doesn't seem to benefit from merging much anyways, so the only slowdown is from trying to do an unnecessary merge attempt. Kevin plans to implement better fragmentation avoidance in the future, but that wouldn't be 2.6.16 material. TBD: should add some statistic counters to count how often that really happens.

Currently, x86_64 and ia64 arches do not clear the corresponding bits in the node's cpumask when a cpu goes down or cpu bring up is cancelled. This is buggy since there are pieces of common code where the cpumask is checked in the cpu down code path to decide on things (like in the slab down path). PPC does the right thing, but x86_64 and ia64 don't (This was the reason Sonny hit upon a slab bug during cpu offline on ppc and could not reproduce on other arches). This patch fixes it for x86_64. I won't attempt ia64 as I cannot test it. Credit for spotting this should go to Alok.

Another piece from the no-idle-tick patch. This can be enabled with the "apicmaintimer" option. This is mainly useful when the PIT/HPET interrupt is unreliable. Note there are some systems that are known to stop the APIC timer in C3. For those it will never work, but this case should be automatically detected. It also only works with PM timer right now. When HPET is used the way the main timer handler computes the delay doesn't work. It should be a bit more efficient because there is one less regular interrupt to process on the boot processor.
