2006-12-02Revert "ACPI: SCI interrupt source override"Len Brown1-5/+5
This reverts commit 281ea49b0c294649a6de47a6f8fbe5611137726b, which broke ACPI Interrupt source overrides that move the SCI from one IRQ in PIC mode to another in IOAPIC mode. If the SCI shared an interrupt line with another device, this would result in a "irq 18: nobody cared" type failure. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7601 Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>

2006-12-01PCI: quirks: fix the festering mess that claims to handle IDE quirksAlan Cox1-46/+0
The number of permutations of crap we do is amazing and almost all of it has the wrong effect in 2.6. At the heart of this is the PCI SFF magic which says that compatibility mode PCI IDE controllers use ISA IRQ routing and hard coded addresses not the BAR values. The old quirks variously clears them, sets them, adjusts them and then IDE ignores the result. In order to drive all this garbage out and to do it portably we need to handle the SFF rules directly and properly. Because we know the device BAR 0-3 are not used in compatibility mode we load them with the values that are implied (and indeed which many controllers actually thoughtfully put there in this mode anyway). This removes special cases in the IDE layer and libata which now knows that bar 0/1/2/3 always contain the correct address. It means our resource allocation map is accurate from boot, not "mostly accurate" after ide is loaded, and it shoots lots of code. There is also lots more code and magic constant knowledge to shoot once this is in and settled. Been in my test tree for a while both with drivers/ide and with libata. Wants some -mm shakedown in case I've missed something dumb or there are corner cases lurking. Signed-off-by: Alan Cox <alan@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
2006-11-17x86: be more careful when walking back the frame pointer chainLinus Torvalds1-3/+7
When showing the stack backtrace, make sure that we never accept not only an unchanging frame pointer, but also a frame pointer that moves back down the stack frame. It must always grow up (toward older stack frames). I doubt this has triggered, but a subtly corrupt stack with extremely unlucky contents could cause us to loop forever on a bogus endless frame pointer chain. This review was triggered by much worse problems happening in some of the other stack unwinding code. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2006-11-17[PATCH] i386/x86_64: ACPI cpu_idle_wait() fixIngo Molnar1-1/+3
The scheduler on Andreas Friedrich's hyperthreading system stopped working properly: the scheduler would never move tasks to another CPU! The lask known working kernel was 2.6.8. After a couple of attempts to corner the bug, the following smoking gun was found: BIOS reported wrong ACPI idfor the processor CPU#1: set_cpus_allowed(), swapper:1, 3 -> 2 [<c0103bbe>] show_trace_log_lvl+0x34/0x4a [<c0103ceb>] show_trace+0x2c/0x2e [<c01045f8>] dump_stack+0x2b/0x2d [<c0116a77>] set_cpus_allowed+0x52/0xec [<c0101d86>] cpu_idle_wait+0x2e/0x100 [<c0259c57>] acpi_processor_power_exit+0x45/0x58 [<c0259752>] acpi_processor_remove+0x46/0xea [<c025c6fb>] acpi_start_single_object+0x47/0x54 [<c025cee5>] acpi_bus_register_driver+0xa4/0xd3 [<c04ab2d7>] acpi_processor_init+0x57/0x77 [<c01004d7>] init+0x146/0x2fd [<c0103a87>] kernel_thread_helper+0x7/0x10 a quick look at cpu_idle_wait() shows how broken that code is on i386: it changes the init task's affinity map but never restores it ... and because all userspace tasks get forked by init, they all inherited that single-CPU affinity mask. x86_64 cloned this bug too.

2006-11-15[PATCH] Use delayed disable mode of ioapic edge triggered interruptsEric W. Biederman1-1/+3
Komuro reports that ISA interrupts do not work after a disable_irq(), causing some PCMCIA drivers to not work, with messages like eth0: Asix AX88190: io 0x300, irq 3, hw_addr xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx eth0: found link beat eth0: autonegotiation complete: 100baseT-FD selected eth0: interrupt(s) dropped! eth0: interrupt(s) dropped! eth0: interrupt(s) dropped! ... Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org> said: "Now, edge-triggered interrupts are a _lot_ harder to mask, because the Intel APIC is an unbelievable piece of sh*t, and has the edge-detect logic _before_ the mask logic, so if a edge happens _while_ the device is masked, you'll never ever see the edge ever again (unmasking will not cause a new edge, so you simply lost the interrupt). So when you "mask" an edge-triggered IRQ, you can't really mask it at all, because if you did that, you'd lose it forever if the IRQ comes in while you masked it. Instead, we're supposed to leave it active, and set a flag, and IF the IRQ comes in, we just remember it, and mask it at that point instead, and then on unmasking, we have to replay it by sending a self-IPI." This trivial patch solves the problem. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

2006-11-08[PATCH] htirq: refactor so we only have one function that writes to the chipEric W. Biederman1-14/+12
This refactoring actually optimizes the code a little by caching the value that we think the device is programmed with instead of reading it back from the hardware. Which simplifies the code a little and should speed things up a bit. This patch introduces the concept of a ht_irq_msg and modifies the architecture read/write routines to update this code. There is a minor consistency fix here as well as x86_64 forgot to initialize the htirq as masked. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

2006-11-08[PATCH] Regression in 2.6.19-rc microcode driverArjan van de Ven1-1/+1
If the microcode driver is built in (rather than module) there are some, ehm, interesting effects happening due to the new "call out to userspace" behavior that is introduced.. and which runs too early. The result is a boot hang; which is really nasty. The patch below is a minimally safe patch to fix this regression for 2.6.19 by just not requesting actual microcode updates during early boot. (That is a good idea in general anyway) The "real" fix is a lot more complex given the entire cpu hotplug scenario (during cpu hotplug you normally need to load the microcode as well); but the interactions for that are just really messy at this point; this fix at least makes it work and avoids a full detangle of hotplug.

2006-10-18PCI: optionally sort device lists breadth-firstMatt Domsch2-2/+64
Problem: New Dell PowerEdge servers have 2 embedded ethernet ports, which are labeled NIC1 and NIC2 on the chassis, in the BIOS setup screens, and in the printed documentation. Assuming no other add-in ethernet ports in the system, Linux 2.4 kernels name these eth0 and eth1 respectively. Many people have come to expect this naming. Linux 2.6 kernels name these eth1 and eth0 respectively (backwards from expectations). I also have reports that various Sun and HP servers have similar behavior. Root cause: Linux 2.4 kernels walk the pci_devices list, which happens to be sorted in breadth-first order (or pcbios_find_device order on i386, which most often is breadth-first also). 2.6 kernels have both the pci_devices list and the pci_bus_type.klist_devices list, the latter is what is walked at driver load time to match the pci_id tables; this klist happens to be in depth-first order. On systems where, for physical routing reasons, NIC1 appears on a lower bus number than NIC2, but NIC2's bridge is discovered first in the depth-first ordering, NIC2 will be discovered before NIC1. If the list were sorted breadth-first, NIC1 would be discovered before NIC2. A PowerEdge 1955 system has the following topology which easily exhibits the difference between depth-first and breadth-first device lists. -[0000:00]-+-00.0 Intel Corporation 5000P Chipset Memory Controller Hub +-02.0-[0000:03-08]--+-00.0-[0000:04-07]--+-00.0-[0000:05-06]----00.0-[0000:06]----00.0 Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme II BCM5708S Gigabit Ethernet (labeled NIC2, 2.4 kernel name eth1, 2.6 kernel name eth0) +-1c.0-[0000:01-02]----00.0-[0000:02]----00.0 Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme II BCM5708S Gigabit Ethernet (labeled NIC1, 2.4 kernel name eth0, 2.6 kernel name eth1) Other factors, such as device driver load order and the presence of PCI slots at various points in the bus hierarchy further complicate this problem; I'm not trying to solve those here, just restore the device order, and thus basic behavior, that 2.4 kernels had. Solution: The solution can come in multiple steps. Suggested fix #1: kernel Patch below optionally sorts the two device lists into breadth-first ordering to maintain compatibility with 2.4 kernels. It adds two new command line options: pci=bfsort pci=nobfsort to force the sort order, or not, as you wish. It also adds DMI checks for the specific Dell systems which exhibit "backwards" ordering, to make them "right". Suggested fix #2: udev rules from userland Many people also have the expectation that embedded NICs are always discovered before add-in NICs (which this patch does not try to do). Using the PCI IRQ Routing Table provided by system BIOS, it's easy to determine which PCI devices are embedded, or if add-in, which PCI slot they're in. I'm working on a tool that would allow udev to name ethernet devices in ascending embedded, slot 1 .. slot N order, subsort by PCI bus/dev/fn breadth-first. It'll be possible to use it independent of udev as well for those distributions that don't use udev in their installers. Suggested fix #3: system board routing rules One can constrain the system board layout to put NIC1 ahead of NIC2 regardless of breadth-first or depth-first discovery order. This adds a significant level of complexity to board routing, and may not be possible in all instances (witness the above systems from several major manufacturers). I don't want to encourage this particular train of thought too far, at the expense of not doing #1 or #2 above. Feedback appreciated. Patch tested on a Dell PowerEdge 1955 blade with 2.6.18. You'll also note I took some liberty and temporarily break the klist abstraction to simplify and speed up the sort algorithm. I think that's both safe and appropriate in this instance.

2006-10-18PCI: Turn pci_fixup_video into generic for embedded VGAeiichiro.oiwa.nm@hitachi.com1-45/+0
pci_fixup_video turns into generic code because there are many platforms need this fixup for embedded VGA as well as x86. The Video BIOS integrates into System BIOS on a machine has embedded VGA although embedded VGA generally don't have PCI ROM. As a result, embedded VGA need the way that the sysfs rom points to the Video BIOS of System RAM (0xC0000). PCI-to-PCI Bridge Architecture specification describes the condition whether or not PCI ROM forwards VGA compatible memory address. fixup_video suits this specification. Although the Video ROM generally implements in x86 code regardless of platform, some application such as X Window System can run this code by dosemu86. Therefore, pci_fixup_video should turn into generic code.

2006-10-17[PATCH] i386 Time: Avoid PIT SMP lockupsjohn stultz2-4/+4
Avoid possible PIT livelock issues seen on SMP systems (and reported by Andi), by not allowing it as a clocksource on SMP boxes. However, since the PIT may no longer be present, we have to properly handle the cases where SMP systems have TSC skew and fall back from the TSC. Since the PIT isn't there, it would "fall back" to the TSC again. So this changes the jiffies rating to 1, and the TSC-bad rating value to 0. Thus you will get the following behavior priority on i386 systems: tsc [if present & stable] hpet [if present] cyclone [if present] acpi_pm [if present] pit [if UP] jiffies Rather then the current more complicated: tsc [if present & stable] hpet [if present] cyclone [if present] acpi_pm [if present] pit [if cpus < 4] tsc [if present & unstable] jiffies Signed-off-by: John Stultz <johnstul@us.ibm.com> Cc: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

2006-10-14ACPI: SCI interrupt source overrideKimball Murray1-5/+5
The Linux group at Stratus Technologies has come across an issue with SCI routing under ACPI. We were bitten by this when we made an x86_64 platform whose BIOS provides an Interrupt Source Override for the SCI itself. Apparently the override has no effect for the System Control Interrupt, and this appears to be because of the way the SCI is setup in the ACPI code. It does not handle the case where busirq != gsi. The code that sets up the SCI routing assumes that bus irq == global irq. So there is simply no provision for telling it otherwise. The attached patch provides this mechanism. This patch provided by David Bulkow, was tested on an i386 platform, which does not use the SCI override, and also on an x86_64 platform which does use an override.

2006-10-14ACPI: Processor native C-states using MWAITVenkatesh Pallipadi2-8/+136
Intel processors starting with the Core Duo support support processor native C-state using the MWAIT instruction. Refer: Intel Architecture Software Developer's Manual http://www.intel.com/design/Pentium4/manuals/253668.htm Platform firmware exports the support for Native C-state to OS using ACPI _PDC and _CST methods. Refer: Intel Processor Vendor-Specific ACPI: Interface Specification http://www.intel.com/technology/iapc/acpi/downloads/302223.htm With Processor Native C-state, we use 'MWAIT' instruction on the processor to enter different C-states (C1, C2, C3). We won't use the special IO ports to enter C-state and no SMM mode etc required to enter C-state. Overall this will mean better C-state support. One major advantage of using MWAIT for all C-states is, with this and "treat interrupt as break event" feature of MWAIT, we can now get accurate timing for the time spent in C1, C2, .. states.
