Benjamin Herrenschmidt 0e6140a56f [POWERPC] 4xx: Improve support for 4xx indirect DCRs
Accessing indirect DCRs is done via a pair of address/data DCRs.

Such accesses are thus inherently racy, vs. interrupts, preemption
and possibly SMP if 4xx SMP cores are ever used.

This updates the mfdcri/mtdcri macros in dcr-native.h (which were
so far unused) to use a spinlock.

In addition, add some common definitions to a new dcr-regs.h file.

Benjamin Herrenschmidt 47c0bd1ae2 [POWERPC] Reworking machine check handling and Fix 440/440A
This adds a cputable function pointer for the CPU-side machine
check handling. The semantic is still the same as the old one,
the one in ppc_md. overrides the one in cputable, though
ultimately we'll want to change that so the CPU gets first.

This removes CONFIG_440A which was a problem for multiplatform
kernels and instead fixes up the IVOR at runtime from a setup_cpu
function. The "A" version of the machine check also tweaks the
regs->trap value to differenciate the 2 versions at the C level.

Stephen Rothwell 373a6da165 [POWERPC] Make non-PCI build work again
Maple and pasemi both require PCI as does CONFIG_OF_PLATFORM_PCI.
The default setting of CONFIG_ISA_DMA_API is set to match the protection
around the relevant routines in asm/dma.h.

I also had to remove the PMAC platform from the combined build.  The
precis is that to build a 64 bit kernel with no PCI, you can only include
pSeries and iSeries.

Scott Wood 7ac5dde99e [POWERPC] Implement arch disable/enable irq hooks.
These hooks ensure that a decrementer interrupt is not pending when
suspending; otherwise, problems may occur on 6xx/7xx/7xxx-based
systems (except for powermacs, which use a separate suspend path).
For example, with deep sleep on the 831x, a pending decrementer will
cause a system freeze because the SoC thinks the decrementer interrupt
would have woken the system, but the core must have interrupts
disabled due to the setup required for deep sleep.

Changed via-pmu.c to use the new ppc_md hooks, and made the arch_*
functions call the generic_* functions unconditionally.  -- paulus

Andre Detsch 18789fb1c3 [POWERPC] spufs: DMA Restart after SIGSEGV
This fixes the behavior of spufs when a spu tries a DMA operation
based on a wrong / unavailable address.

Instead of just generating a SIGBUS signal, spufs now
generates a SIGSEGV signal and restarts the problematic DMA operation
after the execution of the application's signal handler.  This allows
applications to employ user-level paging systems.

Although the restart_dma function is called before the application's
signal handler, the operation is not actually performed at this time,
since the spu context is already stopped.  The operation only takes
place when spu_run is restarted (which happens automatically).

Jeremy Kerr d6ad39bc53 [POWERPC] spufs: rework class 0 and 1 interrupt handling
Based on original patches from
 Arnd Bergmann <arnd.bergman@de.ibm.com>; and
 Luke Browning <lukebr@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

Currently, spu contexts need to be loaded to the SPU in order to take
class 0 and class 1 exceptions.

This change makes the actual interrupt-handlers much simpler (ie,
set the exception information in the context save area), and defers the
handling code to the spufs_handle_class[01] functions, called from
spufs_run_spu.

This should improve the concurrency of the spu scheduling leading to
greater SPU utilization when SPUs are overcommited.

This change moves these components of spufs into the kernel.

The lscsa and switch objects are fairly straightforward to move in.

For the fault.o module, we split the fault-handling code into two
parts: a/p/p/c/spu_fault.c and a/p/p/c/spufs/fault.c. The former is for
the in-kernel spu_handle_mm_fault function, and we move the rest of the

Masato Noguchi c25620d766 [POWERPC] cell: wrap master run control bit
Add platform specific SPU run control routines to the spufs.  The current
spufs implementation uses the SPU master run control bit (MFC_SR1[S]) to
control SPE execution, but the PS3 hypervisor does not support the use of
this feature.

This change adds the run control wrapper routies spu_enable_spu() and
spu_disable_spu().  The bare metal routines use the master run control
bit, and the PS3 specific routines use the priv2 run control register.

An outstanding enhancement for the PS3 would be to add a guard to check
for incorrect access to the spu problem state when the spu context is
disabled.  This check could be implemented with a flag added to the spu
context that would inhibit mapping problem state pages, and a routine
to unmap spu problem state pages.  When the spu is enabled with
ps3_enable_spu() the flag would be set allowing pages to be mapped,
and when the spu is disabled with ps3_disable_spu() the flag would be
cleared and mapped problem state pages would be unmapped.

Emil Medve eda09fbdcd [POWERPC] Optimize counting distinct entries in the relocation sections
When a module has relocation sections with tens of thousands of
entries, counting the distinct/unique entries only (i.e. no
duplicates) at load time can take tens of seconds and up to minutes.
The sore point is the count_relocs() function which is called as part
of the architecture specific module loading processing path:

	-> load_module()			generic
	   -> module_frob_arch_sections()	arch specific
	      -> get_plt_size()		32-bit
	      -> get_stubs_size()	64-bit
		 -> count_relocs()

Here count_relocs is being called to find out how many distinct
targets of R_PPC_REL24 relocations there are, since each distinct
target needs a PLT entry or a stub created for it.

The previous counting algorithm has O(n^2) complexity.  Basically two
solutions were proposed on the e-mail list: a hash based approach and
a sort based approach.

The hash based approach is the fastest (O(n)) but the has it needs
additional memory and for certain corner cases it could take lots of
memory due to the degeneration of the hash.  One such proposal was
submitted here:

http://ozlabs.org/pipermail/linuxppc-dev/2007-June/037641.html

The sort based approach is slower (O(n * log n + n)) but if the
sorting is done "in place" it doesn't need additional memory.
This has O(n + n * log n) complexity with no additional memory
requirements.

This commit implements the in-place sort option.

Ingo Molnar c0a698b744 x86: fix die() to not be preemptible
Andrew "Eagle Eye" Morton noticed that we use raw_local_save_flags()
instead of raw_local_irq_save(flags) in die(). This allows the
preemption of oopsing contexts - which is highly undesirable. It also
causes CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT to complain, as reported by Miles Lane.

this bug was introduced via:

  commit 39743c9ef7
  Author: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de>
  Date:   Fri Oct 19 20:35:03 2007 +0200

      x86: use raw locks during oopses

-               spin_lock_irqsave(&die.lock, flags);
+               __raw_spin_lock(&die.lock);
+               raw_local_save_flags(flags);

that is not a correct open-coding of spin_lock_irqsave(): both the
ordering is wrong (irqs should be disabled _first_), and the wrong
flags-saving API was used.

Milan Broz 91e1062592 dm crypt: use bio_add_page
Fix possible max_phys_segments violation in cloned dm-crypt bio.

In write operation dm-crypt needs to allocate new bio request
and run crypto operation on this clone. Cloned request has always
the same size, but number of physical segments can be increased
and violate max_phys_segments restriction.

This can lead to data corruption and serious hardware malfunction.
This was observed when using XFS over dm-crypt and at least
two HBA controller drivers (arcmsr, cciss) recently.

Fix it by using bio_add_page() call (which tests for other
restrictions too) instead of constructing own biovec.

All versions of dm-crypt are affected by this bug.

Jun'ichi Nomura 512875bd96 dm: table detect io beyond device
This patch fixes a panic on shrinking a DM device if there is
outstanding I/O to the part of the device that is being removed.
(Normally this doesn't happen - a filesystem would be resized first,
for example.)

The bug is that __clone_and_map() assumes dm_table_find_target()
always returns a valid pointer.  It may fail if a bio arrives from the
block layer but its target sector is no longer included in the DM
btree.

This patch appends an empty entry to table->targets[] which will
be returned by a lookup beyond the end of the device.

After calling dm_table_find_target(), __clone_and_map() and target_message()
check for this condition using
dm_target_is_valid().

Sample test script to trigger oops:

Ivan Kokshaysky 3c378158d4 mm: fix exit_mmap BUG() on a.out binary exit
The problem was introduced by commit "mm: variable length argument
support" (b6a2fea393)
as it didn't update fs/binfmt_aout.c like other binfmt's.

I noticed that on alpha when accidentally launched old OSF/1
Acrobat Reader binary. Obviously, other architectures are affected
as well.

Arjan van de Ven 2c3b20e91f debug: add end-of-oops marker
Right now it's nearly impossible for parsers that collect kernel crashes
from logs or emails (such as www.kerneloops.org) to detect the
end-of-oops condition. In addition, it's not currently possible to
detect whether or not 2 oopses that look alike are actually the same
oops reported twice, or are truly two unique oopses.

This patch adds an end-of-oops marker, and makes the end marker include
a very simple 64-bit random ID to be able to detect duplicate reports.

Normally, this ID is calculated as a late_initcall() (in the hope that
at that time there is enough entropy to get a unique enough ID); however
for early oopses the oops_exit() function needs to generate the ID on
the fly.

We do this all at the _end_ of an oops printout, so this does not impact
our ability to get the most important portions of a crash out to the
console first.

[ Sidenote: the already existing oopses-since-bootup counter we print
  during crashes serves as the differentiator between multiple oopses
  that trigger during the same bootup. ]

Tested on 32-bit and 64-bit x86. Artificially injected very early
crashes as well, as expected they result in this constant ID after
multiple bootups:

  ---[ end trace ca143223eefdc828 ]---
  ---[ end trace ca143223eefdc828 ]---

because the random pools are still all zero. But it all still works
fine and causes no additional problems (which is the main goal of
instrumentation code).

Realtime tasks would not account their runtime during ticks. Which would lead
to:
