cmpxchg() is widely used by lockless code, including NMI-safe lockless code. But on some architectures, the cmpxchg() implementation is not NMI-safe, on these architectures the lockless code may need a spin_trylock_irqsave() based implementation. This patch adds a Kconfig option: ARCH_HAVE_NMI_SAFE_CMPXCHG, so that NMI-safe lockless code can depend on it or provide different implementation according to it. On many architectures, cmpxchg is only NMI-safe for several specific operand sizes. So, ARCH_HAVE_NMI_SAFE_CMPXCHG define in this patch only guarantees cmpxchg is NMI-safe for sizeof(unsigned long).

An implementation of a code generator for BPF programs to speed up packet filtering on PPC64, inspired by Eric Dumazet's x86-64 version. Filter code is generated as an ABI-compliant function in module_alloc()'d mem with stackframe & prologue/epilogue generated if required (simple filters don't need anything more than an li/blr). The filter's local variables, M[], live in registers. Supports all BPF opcodes, although "complicated" loads from negative packet offsets (e.g. SKF_LL_OFF) are not yet supported. There are a couple of further optimisations left for future work; many-pass assembly with branch-reach reduction and a register allocator to push M[] variables into volatile registers would improve the code quality further. This currently supports big-endian 64-bit PowerPC only (but is fairly simple to port to PPC32 or LE!). Enabled in the same way as x86-64: echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/core/bpf_jit_enable Or, enabled with extra debug output: echo 2 > /proc/sys/net/core/bpf_jit_enable Signed-off-by: NMatt Evans <matt@ozlabs.org> Acked-by: NEric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

This patch adds support for the new "jump label" feature. Unlike x86 and sparc we just merrily patch the code with no locks etc, as far as I know this is safe, but I'm not really sure what the x86/sparc code is protecting against so maybe it's not. I also don't see any reason for us to implement the poke_early() routine, even though sparc does.

This patch implements the raw syscall tracepoints on PowerPC and exports them for ftrace syscalls to use. To minimise reworking existing code, I slightly re-ordered the thread info flags such that the new TIF_SYSCALL_TRACEPOINT bit would still fit within the 16 bits of the andi. instruction's UI field. The instructions in question are in /arch/powerpc/kernel/entry_{32,64}.S to and the _TIF_SYSCALL_T_OR_A with the thread flags to see if system call tracing is enabled. In the case of 64bit PowerPC, arch_syscall_addr and arch_syscall_match_sym_name are overridden to allow ftrace syscalls to work given the unusual system call table structure and symbol names that start with a period.

This is a first cut at making bootwrapper code which will produce a zImage compliant with the requirements set down by ePAPR. This is a very simple bootwrapper, taking the device tree blob supplied by the ePAPR boot program and passing it on to the kernel. It builds on the earlier patch to build a relocatable ET_DYN zImage to meet the other ePAPR image requirements. For good measure we have some paranoid checks which will generate warnings if some of the ePAPR entry condition guarantees are not met.

The device tree code is now in two pieces: some which can be used generically on any platform which selects CONFIG_OF_FLATTREE, and some early which is used at boot time on only a few architectures. This patch segregates the early code so that only those architectures which care about it need compile it. This also means that some of the requirements in the early code (such as a cmd_line variable) that most architectures (e.g. X86) don't provide can be ignored.

Provide a mechanism that allows running code in IRQ context. It is most useful for NMI code that needs to interact with the rest of the system -- like wakeup a task to drain buffers. Perf currently has such a mechanism, so extract that and provide it as a generic feature, independent of perf so that others may also benefit. The IRQ context callback is generated through self-IPIs where possible, or on architectures like powerpc the decrementer (the built-in timer facility) is set to generate an interrupt immediately. Architectures that don't have anything like this get to do with a callback from the timer tick. These architectures can call irq_work_run() at the tail of any IRQ handlers that might enqueue such work (like the perf IRQ handler) to avoid undue latencies in processing the work.

This is done using the DABR (data breakpoint register), which can also be used for process debugging via ptrace. When perf_event hw_breakpoint support is configured in, the perf_event subsystem manages the DABR and arbitrates access to it, and ptrace then creates a perf_event when it is requested to set a data breakpoint.

This adds support kexec on FSL-BookE where the MMU can not be simply switched off. The code borrows the initial MMU-setup code to create the identical mapping mapping. The only difference to the original boot code is the size of the mapping(s) and the executeable address. The kexec code maps the first 2 GiB of memory in 256 MiB steps.

The description says: Cause IO segments sent to a device for DMA to be merged virtually by the IOMMU when they happen to have been allocated contiguously. This doesn't add pressure to the IOMMU allocator. However, some drivers don't support getting large merged segments coming back from *_map_sg(). Most drivers don't have this problem; it is safe to say Y here. It's out of date. Long ago, drivers didn't have a way to tell IOMMUs about their segment length limit (that is, the maximum segment length that they can handle). So IOMMUs merged as many segments as possible and gave too large segments to drivers. dma_get_max_seg_size() was introduced to solve the above problem. Device drives can use the API to tell IOMMU about the maximum segment length that they can handle. In addition, the default limit (64K) should be safe for everyone. So this config option seems to be unnecessary. Note that this config option just enables users to disable the virtual merging by default. Users can still disable the virtual merging by the boot parameter. Signed-off-by: NFUJITA Tomonori <fujita.tomonori@lab.ntt.co.jp> Signed-off-by: NBenjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>
