2015-10-05	powerpc/msi: Free the bitmap if it was slab allocated	Denis Kirjanov	1	-0/+1
	During the MSI bitmap test on boot kmemleak spews the following trace: unreferenced object 0xc00000016e86c900 (size 64): comm "swapper/0", pid 1, jiffies 4294893173 (age 518.024s) hex dump (first 32 bytes): 00 00 01 ff 7f ff 7f 37 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 .......7........ ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff 01 ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ................ backtrace: [<c00000000003eebc>] .zalloc_maybe_bootmem+0x3c/0x380 [<c000000000042d6c>] .msi_bitmap_alloc+0x3c/0xb0 [<c000000000a9aff8>] .msi_bitmap_selftest+0x30/0x2b4 [<c0000000000090f4>] .do_one_initcall+0xd4/0x270 [<c000000000a8e250>] .kernel_init_freeable+0x1a0/0x280 [<c000000000009b5c>] .kernel_init+0x1c/0x120 [<c000000000007fbc>] .ret_from_kernel_thread+0x58/0x9c Add a flag to msi_bitmap for tracking allocations from slab and memblock so we can properly free/handle memory in msi_bitmap_free().

2008-08-20	powerpc: Split-out common MSI bitmap logic into msi_bitmap.c	Michael Ellerman	1	-0/+35
	There are now two almost identical implementations of an MSI bitmap allocator, one in mpic_msi.c and the other in fsl_msi.c. Merge them together and put the result in msi_bitmap.c. Some of the MPIC bits will remain to provide a nicer interface for the MPIC users. In the process we fix two buglets. The first is that the allocation routines, now msi_bitmap_alloc_hwirqs(), returned an unsigned result, even though they use -1 to indicate allocation failure. Although all the callers were checking correctly, it is much better for the routine to just return an int. At least until someone wants > ~2 billion MSIs. The second buglet is that the device tree reservation logic only allowed power-of-two reservations. AFAICT that didn't effect any existing code but it's nicer if we can reserve arbitrary irqs from MSI use. We also add some selftests, which exposed the two buglets and now test for them, as well as some basic sanity tests. The tests are only built when CONFIG_DEBUG_KERNEL=y.
