      powerpc/cell/axon-msi: Retry on missing interrupt · d015fe99
      由 Arnd Bergmann 提交于 
      The MSI capture logic for the axon bridge can sometimes
lose interrupts in case of high DMA and interrupt load,
when it signals an MSI interrupt to the MPIC interrupt
controller while we are already handling another MSI.

Each MSI vector gets written into a FIFO buffer in main
memory using DMA, and that DMA access is normally flushed
by the actual interrupt packet on the IOIF.  An MMIO
register in the MSIC holds the position of the last
entry in the FIFO buffer that was written.  However,
reading that position does not flush the DMA, so that
we can observe stale data in the buffer.

In a stress test, we have observed the DMA to arrive
up to 14 microseconds after reading the register.

This patch works around this problem by retrying the
access to the FIFO buffer.

We can reliably detect the conditioning by writing
an invalid MSI vector into the FIFO buffer after
reading from it, assuming that all MSIs we get
are valid.  After detecting an invalid MSI vector,
we udelay(1) in the interrupt cascade for up to
100 times before giving up.

      powerpc: Fix boot freeze on machine with empty memory node · 4a618669
      由 Dave Hansen 提交于 
      I got a bug report about a distro kernel not booting on a particular
machine.  It would freeze during boot:

> ...
> Could not find start_pfn for node 1
> [boot]0015 Setup Done
> Built 2 zonelists in Node order, mobility grouping on.  Total pages: 123783
> Policy zone: DMA
> Kernel command line:
> [boot]0020 XICS Init
> [boot]0021 XICS Done
> PID hash table entries: 4096 (order: 12, 32768 bytes)
> clocksource: timebase mult[7d0000] shift[22] registered
> Console: colour dummy device 80x25

> Inode-cache hash table entries: 524288 (order: 6, 4194304 bytes)
> freeing bootmem node 0

I've reproduced this on 2.6.27.7.  It is caused by commit
8f64e1f2 ("powerpc: Reserve in bootmem
lmb reserved regions that cross NUMA nodes").

The problem is that Jon took a loop which was (in pseudocode):

	for_each_node(nid)
		NODE_DATA(nid) = careful_alloc(nid);
		setup_bootmem(nid);
		reserve_node_bootmem(nid);

and broke it up into:

	for_each_node(nid)
		NODE_DATA(nid) = careful_alloc(nid);
		setup_bootmem(nid);
	for_each_node(nid)
		reserve_node_bootmem(nid);

The issue comes in when the 'careful_alloc()' is called on a node with
no memory.  It falls back to using bootmem from a previously-initialized
node.  But, bootmem has not yet been reserved when Jon's patch is
applied.  It gives back bogus memory (0xc000000000000000) and pukes
later in boot.

The following patch collapses the loop back together.  It also breaks
the mark_reserved_regions_for_nid() code out into a function and adds
some comments.  I think a huge part of introducing this bug is because
for loop was too long and hard to read.

The actual bug fix here is the:

+		if (end_pfn <= node->node_start_pfn ||
+		    start_pfn >= node_end_pfn)
+			continue;

      powerpc: Fix IRQ assignment for some PCIe devices · 4b824de9
      由 Adhemerval Zanella 提交于 
      Currently, some PCIe devices on POWER6 machines do not get interrupts
assigned correctly.  The problem is that OF doesn't create an
"interrupt" property for them.  The fix is for of_irq_map_pci to fall
back to using the value in the PCI interrupt-pin register in config
space, as we do when there is no OF device-tree node for the device.

I have verified that this works fine with a pair of Squib-E SAS
adapter on a P6-570.

      powerpc/spufs: Fix spinning in spufs_ps_fault on signal · 60657263
      由 Jeremy Kerr 提交于 
      Currently, we can end up in an infinite loop if we get a signal
while the kernel has faulted in spufs_ps_fault. Eg:

 alarm(1);

 write(fd, some_spu_psmap_register_address, 4);

- the write's copy_from_user will fault on the ps mapping, and
signal_pending will be non-zero. Because returning from the fault
handler will never clear TIF_SIGPENDING, so we'll just keep faulting,
resulting in an unkillable process using 100% of CPU.

This change returns VM_FAULT_SIGBUS if there's a fatal signal pending,
letting us escape the loop.
