David S. Miller 4be5c34dc4 [SPARC64]: Privatize sun4u_get_pte() and fix name.
__get_phys is only called from init.c as is prom_virt_to_phys(),
__get_iospace() is not called at all, and sun4u_get_pte() is largely
misnamed.

Privatize the implementation and helper functions of
sun4u_get_phys() to mm/init.c, and rename to
kvaddr_to_paddr().

The only used of this thing is flush_icache_range(), and thus
things can be considerably further simplified.  For example,
we should only see module or PAGE_OFFSET kernel addresses here,
so we don't need the OBP firmware range handling at all.

David S. Miller d78d0891d3 [SPARC64]: Use SPARSEMEM_STATIC
Decrease the SECTION_SIZE_BITS --> MAX_PHYSADDR_BITS
range a little bit.

The cost of going to SPARSEMEM_STATIC becomes 8K of BSS space, and in
return we save a pointer dereferences on every page struct lookup.
Even better we hit the main kernel image for the base address which is
in a hugepage locked TLB entry.

David S. Miller 28f57e774d [SPARC64]: Force dummy host controller onto bus zero.
This helps deal with the invisible bridge that sits between
the host controller and the top-most visisble PCI devices
on hypervisor systems.

For example, on T1000 the bus-range property says 2 --> 4
and so there is a PCI express bridge at bus 2, devfn 0, etc.

So if we don't force the dummy host controller to bus zero,
we'll try to create two devices with the same domain/bus/devfn
triplet.

Also, add some more log diagnostics to make debugging stuff like this
easyer.

David S. Miller 01f94c4a6c [SPARC64]: Fix sabre pci controllers with new probing scheme.
The SIMBA APB bridge is strange, it is a PCI bridge but it lacks
some standard OF properties, in particular it lacks a 'ranges'
property.

What you have to do is read the IO and MEM range registers in
the APB bridge to determine the ranges handled by each bridge.
So fill in the bus resources by doing that.

Since we now handle this quirk in the generic PCI and OF device
probing layers, we can flat out eliminate all of that code from
the sabre pci controller driver.

In fact we can thus eliminate completely another quirk of the sabre
driver.  It tried to make the two APB bridges look like PBMs but that
makes zero sense now (and it's questionable whether it ever made sense).
So now just use pbm_A and probe the whole PCI hierarchy using that as
the root.

This simplification allows many future cleanups to occur.

Also, I've found yet another quirk that needs to be worked around
while testing this.  You can't use the 'class-code' OF firmware
property, especially for IDE controllers.  We have to read the value
out of PCI config space or else we'll see the value the device was
showing before it was programmed into native mode.

I'm starting to think it might be wise to just read all of the values
out of PCI config space instead of using the OF properties. :-/

David S. Miller 112f48716d [SPARC64]: Add clocksource/clockevents support.
I'd like to thank John Stul and others for helping
me along the way.

A lot of cleanups fell out of this.  For example, the get_compare()
tick_op was totally unused, so was deleted.  And the most often used
tick_op members were grouped together for cache-friendlyness.

The sparc64 TSC is given to the kernel as a one-shot timer.

tick_ops->init_timer() simply turns off the privileged bit in
the tick register (when possible), and disables the interrupt
by setting bit 63 in the compare register.  The ->disable_irq()
op also sets this bit.

tick_ops->add_compare() is changed to:

1) Add the given delta to "tick" not to "compare"
2) Return a boolean which, if true, means that the tick
   value read after writing the compare value was found
   to have incremented past the initial tick value.  This
   mirrors logic used in the HPET driver's ->next_event()
   method.

Each tick_ops implementation also now provides a name string.
And we feed this into the clocksource and clockevents layers.

Roland McGrath 1d51c69fb6 [SPARC]: avoid CHILD_MAX and OPEN_MAX constants
I don't figure anyone really cares about SunOS syscall emulation, and I
certainly don't.  But I'm getting rid of uses of the OPEN_MAX and CHILD_MAX
compile-time constant, and these are almost the only ones.  OPEN_MAX is a
bogus constant with no meaning about anything.  The RLIMIT_NOFILE resource
limit is what sysconf (_SC_OPEN_MAX) actually wants to return.

The CHILD_MAX cases weren't actually using anything I want to get rid of,
but I noticed that they are there and are wrong too.  The CHILD_MAX value
is not really unlimited as a -1 return from sysconf indicates.  The
RLIMIT_NPROC resource limit is what sysconf (_SC_CHILD_MAX) wants to return.

David S. Miller 2f3a2efd85 [SPARC64]: Fix SBUS IOMMU allocation code.
There are several IOMMU allocator bugs.  Instead of trying to fix this
overly complicated code, just mirror the PCI IOMMU arena allocator
which is very stable and well stress tested.

I tried to make the code as identical as possible so we can switch
sun4u PCI and SBUS over to a common piece of IOMMU code.  All that
will be need are two callbacks, one to do a full IOMMU flush and one
to do a streaming buffer flush.

This patch gets rid of a lot of hangs and mysterious crashes on SBUS
sparc64 systems, at least for me.

Cribbed compat_sys_sysinfo from x86_64's implementation, since I figured it
would be the best tested.

This patch incorporates Arnd's suggestion of not using set_fs/get_fs, but
instead extracting out the common code from sys_sysinfo.

Tilman Schmidt 4564f9e5fd [PATCH] consolidate line discipline number definitions
The line discipline numbers N_* are currently defined for each architecture
individually, but (except for a seeming mistake) identically, in
asm/termios.h.  There is no obvious reason why these numbers should be
architecture specific, nor any apparent relationship with the termios
structure.  The total number of these, NR_LDISCS, is defined in linux/tty.h
anyway.  So I propose the following patch which moves the definitions of
the individual line disciplines to linux/tty.h too.

Three of these numbers (N_MASC, N_PROFIBUS_FDL, and N_SMSBLOCK) are unused
in the current kernel, but the patch still keeps the complete set in case
there are plans to use them yet.

Christoph Lameter 5ac6da669e [PATCH] Set CONFIG_ZONE_DMA for arches with GENERIC_ISA_DMA
As Andi pointed out: CONFIG_GENERIC_ISA_DMA only disables the ISA DMA
channel management.  Other functionality may still expect GFP_DMA to
provide memory below 16M.  So we need to make sure that CONFIG_ZONE_DMA is
set independent of CONFIG_GENERIC_ISA_DMA.  Undo the modifications to
mm/Kconfig where we made ZONE_DMA dependent on GENERIC_ISA_DMA and set
theses explicitly in each arches Kconfig.

Reviews must occur for each arch in order to determine if ZONE_DMA can be
switched off.  It can only be switched off if we know that all devices
supported by a platform are capable of performing DMA transfers to all of
memory (Some arches already support this: uml, avr32, sh sh64, parisc and
IA64/Altix).

In order to switch ZONE_DMA off conditionally, one would have to establish
a scheme by which one can assure that no drivers are enabled that are only
capable of doing I/O to a part of memory, or one needs to provide an
alternate means of performing an allocation from a specific range of memory
(like provided by alloc_pages_range()) and insure that all drivers use that
call.  In that case the arches alloc_dma_coherent() may need to be modified
to call alloc_pages_range() instead of relying on GFP_DMA.

David S. Miller 35a17eb6a8 [SPARC64]: Add PCI MSI support on Niagara.
This is kind of hokey, we could use the hardware provided facilities
much better.

MSIs are assosciated with MSI Queues.  MSI Queues generate interrupts
when any MSI assosciated with it is signalled.  This suggests a
two-tiered IRQ dispatch scheme:

	MSI Queue interrupt --> queue interrupt handler
		MSI dispatch --> driver interrupt handler

But we just get one-level under Linux currently.  What I'd like to do
is possibly stick the IRQ actions into a per-MSI-Queue data structure,
and dispatch them form there, but the generic IRQ layer doesn't
provide a way to do that right now.

So, the current kludge is to "ACK" the interrupt by processing the
MSI Queue data structures and ACK'ing them, then we run the actual
handler like normal.

We are wasting a lot of useful information, for example the MSI data
and address are provided with ever MSI, as well as a system tick if
available.  If we could pass this into the IRQ handler it could help
with certain things, in particular for PCI-Express error messages.

The MSI entries on sparc64 also tell you exactly which bus/device/fn
sent the MSI, which would be great for error handling when no
registered IRQ handler can service the interrupt.

We override the disable/enable IRQ chip methods in sun4v_msi, so we
have to call {mask,unmask}_msi_irq() directly from there.  This is
another ugly wart.

David S. Miller 86d43258bc [SPARC64]: Set g4/g5 properly in sun4v dtlb-prot handling.
Mirror the logic in the sun4u handler, we have to update
both registers even when we branch out to window fault
fixup handling.

The way it works is that if we are in etrap processing a
fault already, g4/g5 holds the original fault information.
If we take a window spill fault while doing etrap, then
we put the window spill fault info into g4/g5 and this is
what the top-level fault handler ends up processing first.

Then we retry the originally faulting instruction, and
process the original fault at that time.

This is all necessary because of how constrained the trap
registers are in these code paths.  These cases trigger
very rarely, so even if there is some performance implication
it's doesn't happen very often.  In fact the rarity is why
it took so long to trigger and find this particular bug.

Gautham R Shenoy b282b6f8a8 [PATCH] Change cpu_up and co from __devinit to __cpuinit
Compiling the kernel with CONFIG_HOTPLUG = y and CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU = n
with CONFIG_RELOCATABLE = y generates the following modpost warnings

WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.data: from

WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.data: from

WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.data: from

WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.data: from
.text between '_cpu_up' (at offset 0xc0141c37) and 'cpu_up'

This is because cpu_up, _cpu_up and __cpu_up (in some architectures) are
defined as __devinit
AND
__cpu_up calls some __cpuinit functions.

Since __cpuinit would map to __init with this kind of a configuration,
we get a .text refering .init.data warning.

This patch solves the problem by converting all of __cpu_up, _cpu_up
and cpu_up from __devinit to __cpuinit. The approach is justified since
the callers of cpu_up are either dependent on CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU or
are of __init type.

Thus when CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU=y, all these cpu up functions would land up
in .text section, and when CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU=n, all these functions would
land up in .init section.

Tested on a i386 SMP machine running linux-2.6.20-rc3-mm1.

David S. Miller f088258966 [SPARC64]: Fix several kprobes bugs.
- relbranch_fixup(), for non-branches, would end up setting
  regs->tnpc incorrectly, in fact it would set it equal to
  regs->tpc which would cause that instruction to execute twice

  Also, if this is not a PC-relative branch, we should just
  leave regs->tnpc as-is.  This covers cases like 'jmpl' which
  branch to absolute values.

- To be absolutely %100 safe, we need to flush the instruction
  cache for all assignments to kprobe->ainsn.insn[], including
  cases like add_aggr_kprobe()

- prev_kprobe's status field needs to be 'unsigned long' to match
  the type of the value it is saving

- jprobes were totally broken:
  = jprobe_return() can run in the stack frame of the jprobe handler,
    or in an even deeper stack frame, thus we'll be in the wrong
    register window than the one from the original probe state.

    So unwind using 'restore' instructions, if necessary, right
    before we do the jprobe_return() breakpoint trap.

  = There is no reason to save/restore the register window saved
    at %sp at jprobe trigger time.  Those registers cannot be
    modified by the jprobe handler.  Also, this code was saving
    and restoring "sizeof (struct sparc_stackf)" bytes.  Depending
    upon the caller, this could clobber unrelated stack frame
    pieces if there is only a basic 128-byte register window
    stored on the stack, without the argument save area.

    So just saving and restoring struct pt_regs is sufficient.

  = Kill the "jprobe_saved_esp", totally unused.

    Also, delete "jprobe_saved_regs_location", with the stack frame
    unwind now done explicitly by jprobe_return(), this check is
    superfluous.

David Howells f0d1b0b30d [PATCH] LOG2: Implement a general integer log2 facility in the kernel
This facility provides three entry points:

	ilog2()		Log base 2 of unsigned long
	ilog2_u32()	Log base 2 of u32
	ilog2_u64()	Log base 2 of u64

These facilities can either be used inside functions on dynamic data:

	int do_something(long q)
	{
		...;
		y = ilog2(x)
		...;
	}

Or can be used to statically initialise global variables with constant values:

	unsigned n = ilog2(27);

When performing static initialisation, the compiler will report "error:
initializer element is not constant" if asked to take a log of zero or of
something not reducible to a constant.  They treat negative numbers as
unsigned.

When not dealing with a constant, they fall back to using fls() which permits
them to use arch-specific log calculation instructions - such as BSR on
x86/x86_64 or SCAN on FRV - if available.

Peter Zijlstra 24ec839c43 [PATCH] tty: ->signal->tty locking
Fix the locking of signal->tty.

Use ->sighand->siglock to protect ->signal->tty; this lock is already used
by most other members of ->signal/->sighand.  And unless we are 'current'
or the tasklist_lock is held we need ->siglock to access ->signal anyway.

(NOTE: sys_unshare() is broken wrt ->sighand locking rules)

Note that tty_mutex is held over tty destruction, so while holding
tty_mutex any tty pointer remains valid.  Otherwise the lifetime of ttys
are governed by their open file handles.  This leaves some holes for tty
access from signal->tty (or any other non file related tty access).

It solves the tty SLAB scribbles we were seeing.

(NOTE: the change from group_send_sig_info to __group_send_sig_info needs to
       be examined by someone familiar with the security framework, I think
       it is safe given the SEND_SIG_PRIV from other __group_send_sig_info
       invocations)

Magnus Damm 386d9a7edd [PATCH] elf: Always define elf_addr_t in linux/elf.h
Define elf_addr_t in linux/elf.h.  The size of the type is determined using
ELF_CLASS.  This allows us to remove the defines that today are spread all

Christoph Lameter e18b890bb0 [PATCH] slab: remove kmem_cache_t
Replace all uses of kmem_cache_t with struct kmem_cache.

The patch was generated using the following script:

	#!/bin/sh
	#
	# Replace one string by another in all the kernel sources.
	#

	set -e

	for file in `find * -name "*.c" -o -name "*.h"|xargs grep -l $1`; do
		quilt add $file
		sed -e "1,\$s/$1/$2/g" $file >/tmp/$$
		mv /tmp/$$ $file
		quilt refresh
	done

The script was run like this

	sh replace kmem_cache_t "struct kmem_cache"

Chen, Kenneth W 39dde65c99 [PATCH] shared page table for hugetlb page
Following up with the work on shared page table done by Dave McCracken.  This
set of patch target shared page table for hugetlb memory only.

The shared page table is particular useful in the situation of large number of
independent processes sharing large shared memory segments.  In the normal
page case, the amount of memory saved from process' page table is quite
significant.  For hugetlb, the saving on page table memory is not the primary
objective (as hugetlb itself already cuts down page table overhead
significantly), instead, the purpose of using shared page table on hugetlb is
to allow faster TLB refill and smaller cache pollution upon TLB miss.

With PT sharing, pte entries are shared among hundreds of processes, the cache
consumption used by all the page table is smaller and in return, application
gets much higher cache hit ratio.  One other effect is that cache hit ratio
with hardware page walker hitting on pte in cache will be higher and this
helps to reduce tlb miss latency.  These two effects contribute to higher
application performance.

Eric W. Biederman fd593d1277 [PATCH] relocatable kernel: Kallsyms generate relocatable symbols
Print the addresses of non-absolute symbols relative to _text
so that ld will generate relocations.  Allowing a relocatable
kernel to relocate them.  We can't actually use the symbol names
because kallsyms includes static symbols that are not exported
from their object files.

Add the _text symbol definitions to the architectures which don't
define it otherwise linker will fail.

Matthew Wilcox ebf5a24829 PCI: Use pci_generic_prep_mwi on sparc64
The setting of the CACHE_LINE_SIZE register in sparc64's pci
initialisation code isn't quite adequate as the device may have
incompatible requirements.  The generic code tests for this, so switch
sparc64 over to using it.

Since sparc64 has different L1 cache line size and PCI cache line size,
it would need to override the generic code like i386 and ia64 do.  We
know what the cache line size is at compile time though, so introduce a
new optional constant PCI_CACHE_LINE_BYTES.

David S. Miller 59359ff877 [SPARC]: Fix robust futex syscalls and wire up migrate_pages.
When I added the entries for the robust futex syscall entries, I
forgot to bump NR_SYSCALLS.  The current situation is error-prone
because NR_SYSCALLS lives in entry.S where the system call limit
checks are enforced.  Move the definition to asm/unistd.h in order to
make this mistake much more difficult to make.

And wire up sys_migrate_pages since the powerpc folks implemented the
compat wrapper for us.

David S. Miller 9001f2850f [SPARC64]: Fix Tomatillo/Schizo IRQ handling.
The code in schizo_irq_trans_init() should set irq_data->sync_reg
to the location of the SYNC register if this is Tomatillo, and set
it to zero otherwise.  But that is not what it is doing.

As a result, non-Tomatillo systems were trying to access a
non-existent register resulting in bus errors at the first
PCI interrupt.

Thanks to Roland Stigge for the bug report.
