2009-08-14percpu, sparc64: fix sparse possible cpu map handlingTejun Heo1-2/+2
percpu code has been assuming num_possible_cpus() == nr_cpu_ids which is incorrect if cpu_possible_map contains holes. This causes percpu code to access beyond allocated memories and vmalloc areas. On a sparc64 machine with cpus 0 and 2 (u60), this triggers the following warning or fails boot.

2009-07-27mm: Pass virtual address to [__]p{te,ud,md}_free_tlb()Benjamin Herrenschmidt2-7/+7
mm: Pass virtual address to [__]p{te,ud,md}_free_tlb() Upcoming paches to support the new 64-bit "BookE" powerpc architecture will need to have the virtual address corresponding to PTE page when freeing it, due to the way the HW table walker works. Basically, the TLB can be loaded with "large" pages that cover the whole virtual space (well, sort-of, half of it actually) represented by a PTE page, and which contain an "indirect" bit indicating that this TLB entry RPN points to an array of PTEs from which the TLB can then create direct entries. Thus, in order to invalidate those when PTE pages are deleted, we need the virtual address to pass to tlbilx or tlbivax instructions. The old trick of sticking it somewhere in the PTE page struct page sucks too much, the address is almost readily available in all call sites and almost everybody implemets these as macros, so we may as well add the argument everywhere. I added it to the pmd and pud variants for consistency.

2009-07-22Driver Core: Add platform device arch data V3Magnus Damm1-0/+3
Allow architecture specific data in struct platform_device V3. With this patch struct pdev_archdata is added to struct platform_device, similar to struct dev_archdata in found in struct device. Useful for architecture code that needs to keep extra data associated with each platform device. Struct pdev_archdata is different from dev.platform_data, the convention is that dev.platform_data points to driver-specific data. It may or may not be required by the driver. The format of this depends on driver but is the same across architectures. The structure pdev_archdata is a place for architecture specific data. This data is handled by architecture specific code (for example runtime PM), and since it is architecture specific it should _never_ be touched by device driver code. Exactly like struct dev_archdata but for platform devices.

2009-06-16kmap_types: make most arches use generic header fileRandy Dunlap1-16/+1
Convert most arches to use asm-generic/kmap_types.h. Move the KM_FENCE_ macro additions into asm-generic/kmap_types.h, controlled by __WITH_KM_FENCE from each arch's kmap_types.h file. Would be nice to be able to add custom KM_types per arch, but I don't yet see a nice, clean way to do that. Built on x86_64, i386, mips, sparc, alpha(tonyb), powerpc(tonyb), and 68k(tonyb). Note: avr32 should be able to remove KM_PTE2 (since it's not used) and then just use the generic kmap_types.h file. Get avr32 maintainer approval.

CPU_MASK_ALL is the (deprecated) "all bits set" cpumask, defined as so: #define CPU_MASK_ALL (cpumask_t) { { ... } } Taking the address of such a temporary is questionable at best, unfortunately 321a8e9d (cpumask: add CPU_MASK_ALL_PTR macro) added CPU_MASK_ALL_PTR: #define CPU_MASK_ALL_PTR (&CPU_MASK_ALL) Which formalizes this practice. One day gcc could bite us over this usage (though we seem to have gotten away with it so far).

2009-06-16sparc64: fix and optimize irq distributionHong H. Pham5-25/+456
irq_choose_cpu() should compare the affinity mask against cpu_online_map rather than CPU_MASK_ALL, since irq_select_affinity() sets the interrupt's affinity mask to cpu_online_map "and" CPU_MASK_ALL (which ends up being just cpu_online_map). The mask comparison in irq_choose_cpu() will always fail since the two masks are not the same. So the CPU chosen is the first CPU in the intersection of cpu_online_map and CPU_MASK_ALL, which is always CPU0. That means all interrupts are reassigned to CPU0... Distributing interrupts to CPUs in a linearly increasing round robin fashion is not optimal for the UltraSPARC T1/T2. Also, the irq_rover in irq_choose_cpu() causes an interrupt to be assigned to a different processor each time the interrupt is allocated and released. This may lead to an unbalanced distribution over time. A static mapping of interrupts to processors is done to optimize and balance interrupt distribution. For the T1/T2, interrupts are spread to different cores first, and then to strands within a core. The following is some benchmarks showing the effects of interrupt distribution on a T2. The test was done with iperf using a pair of T5220 boxes, each with a 10GBe NIU (XAUI) connected back to back.

It's theoretically possible that there are exception table entries which point into the (freed) init text of modules. These could cause future problems if other modules get loaded into that memory and cause an exception as we'd see the wrong fixup. The only case I know of is kvm-intel.ko (when CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE=n). Amerigo fixed this long-standing FIXME in the x86 version, but this patch is more general. This implements trim_init_extable(); most archs are simple since they use the standard lib/extable.c sort code. Alpha and IA64 use relative addresses in their fixups, so thier trimming is a slight variation. Sparc32 is unique; it doesn't seem to define ARCH_HAS_SORT_EXTABLE, yet it defines its own sort_extable() which overrides the one in lib. It doesn't sort, so we have to mark deleted entries instead of actually trimming them.
