2009-12-18hw-breakpoints: Fix hardware breakpoints -> perf events dependencyFrederic Weisbecker2-3/+3
The kbuild's select command doesn't propagate through the config dependencies. Hence the current rules of hardware breakpoint's config can't ensure perf can never be disabled under us. We have: config X86 selects HAVE_HW_BREAKPOINTS config HAVE_HW_BREAKPOINTS select PERF_EVENTS config PERF_EVENTS [...] x86 will select the breakpoints but that won't propagate to perf events. The user can still disable the latter, but it is necessary for the breakpoints. What we need is: - x86 selects HAVE_HW_BREAKPOINTS and PERF_EVENTS - HAVE_HW_BREAKPOINTS depends on PERF_EVENTS so that we ensure PERF_EVENTS is enabled and frozen for x86. This fixes the following kind of build errors: In file included from arch/x86/kernel/hw_breakpoint.c:31: include/linux/hw_breakpoint.h: In function 'hw_breakpoint_addr': include/linux/hw_breakpoint.h:39: error: 'struct perf_event' has no member named 'attr' v2: Select also ANON_INODES from x86, required for perf Reported-by: Cyrill Gorcunov <gorcunov@gmail.com> Reported-by: Michal Marek <mmarek@suse.cz> Reported-by: Andrew Randrianasulu <randrik_a@yahoo.com> Signed-off-by: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Cc: Randy Dunlap <randy.dunlap@oracle.com> Cc: K.Prasad <prasad@linux.vnet.ibm.com> LKML-Reference: <1261010034-7786-1-git-send-regression-fweisbec@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

So there is no need for the apic op cpu_mask_to_apicid_and() to check again and return BAD_APICID. Remove the BAD_APICID return value from cpu_mask_to_apicid_and() and also fix set_desc_affinity() to return -1 instead of using BAD_APICID to represent error conditions (as cpu_mask_to_apicid_and() can return logical or physical apicid values and BAD_APICID is really to represent bad physical apic id).

Also, a counter with a value of 0 means that the TX fifo got ready in the last try and the transfer should be attempted.

2009-12-18powerpc: Fix MSI support on U4 bridge PCIe slotBenjamin Herrenschmidt2-8/+49
On machines using the Apple U4 bridge (AKA IBM CPC945) PCIe interface such as the latest generation G5 machines x16 slot or the x16 slot of the PowerStation, MSIs are currently broken (and will oops when enabling). This fixes the oops and implements proper support for those. Instead of using the PCIe <-> HT bridge conversion, on such slots we need to use a bunch of magic registers in the bridge as the MSI target, encoding the interrupt number in the low bits of the address itself Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

2009-12-18powerpc/defconfigs: Set HZ=100 on pseries and ppc64 defconfigsAnton Blanchard2-6/+6
Now we have high res timers there is less of a reason for a high HZ value. Furthermore I think there a few reasons we should reduce HZ to 100: - Timer interrupt overhead. While this overhead is small, there are applications that are very sensitive to jitter (eg some HPC apps). - Issues with the timer wheel code. When coming out of NO_HZ idle we work our way through the timer code one tick at a time. If we have been idle a long time, this adds up - I sometimes see milliseconds of time spent in that loop. Long term we should fix the timer wheel algorithm, but for now if we reduce HZ then we reduce the amount of work the timer code has to do when coming out of idle.

2009-12-18powerpc: Make the CMM memory hotplug awareRobert Jennings1-6/+248
The Collaborative Memory Manager (CMM) module allocates individual pages over time that are not migratable. On a long running system this can severely impact the ability to find enough pages to support a hotplug memory remove operation. This patch adds a memory isolation notifier and a memory hotplug notifier. The memory isolation notifier will return the number of pages found in the range specified. This is used to determine if all of the used pages in a pageblock are owned by the balloon (or other entities in the notifier chain). The hotplug notifier will free pages in the range which is to be removed. The priority of this hotplug notifier is low so that it will be called near last, this helps avoids removing loaned pages in operations that fail due to other handlers. CMM activity will be halted when hotplug remove operations are active and resume activity after a delay period to allow the hypervisor time to adjust.

2009-12-17x86: Reenable TSC sync check at boot, even with NONSTOP_TSCPallipadi, Venkatesh2-1/+1
Commit 83ce4009 did the following change If the TSC is constant and non-stop, also set it reliable. But, there seems to be few systems that will end up with TSC warp across sockets, depending on how the cpus come out of reset. Skipping TSC sync test on such systems may result in time inconsistency later. So, reenable TSC sync test even on constant and non-stop TSC systems. Set, sched_clock_stable to 1 by default and reset it in mark_tsc_unstable, if TSC sync fails. This change still gives perf benefit mentioned in 83ce4009 for systems where TSC is reliable.

2009-12-17spi_s3c24xx: add FIQ pseudo-DMA supportBen Dooks1-0/+2
Add pseudo-DMA by FIQ to the S3C24XX SPI driver. This allows the driver to get DMA-like performance where there are either no free DMA channels or when doing transfers that required both TX and RX data paths. Since this patch requires the addition of an assembly file to hold the FIQ code, we rename the module (instead of adding a rename of the .c file to this patch). We expect most users are loading this via udev and thus there should be no change to the userland configuration.
