2010-12-20ARM: mxs: Add timer supportShawn Guo
There are 2 versions of the timrot on Freescale MXS-based SoCs. The v1 on MX23 only gets 16 bits counter, while v2 on MX28 extends the counter to 32 bits. The implementation uses two timers, one for clock_event and another for clocksource. MX28 uses timrot 0 and 1, while MX23 uses 0 and 2.

The generic conversion eliminates the spurious no_ack and no_end routines, converts all the cascaded handlers to handle_simple_irq() and makes iosapic use a modified handle_percpu_irq() to become the same as the CPU irq's. This isn't an essential change, but it eliminates the mask/unmask overhead of handle_level_irq().

2010-12-04parisc: fix dino/gsc interruptsJames Bottomley
The essential problem we're currently having is that dino (and gsc) is a cascaded CPU interrupt. Under the old __do_IRQ() handler, our CPU interrupts basically did an ack followed by an end. In the new scheme, we replaced them with level handlers which do a mask, an ack and then an unmask (but no end). Instead, with the renaming of end to eoi, we actually want to call the percpu flow handlers, because they actually have all the characteristics we want. This patch does the conversion and gets my C360 booting again. Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Kyle McMartin <kyle@mcmartin.ca>

2010-12-02vmalloc: eagerly clear ptes on vunmapJeremy Fitzhardinge
On stock 2.6.37-rc4, running: # mount lilith:/export /mnt/lilith # find /mnt/lilith/ -type f -print0 | xargs -0 file crashes the machine fairly quickly under Xen. Often it results in oops messages, but the couple of times I tried just now, it just hung quietly and made Xen print some rude messages: (XEN) mm.c:2389:d80 Bad type (saw 7400000000000001 != exp 3000000000000000) for mfn 1d7058 (pfn 18fa7) (XEN) mm.c:964:d80 Attempt to create linear p.t. with write perms (XEN) mm.c:2389:d80 Bad type (saw 7400000000000010 != exp 1000000000000000) for mfn 1d2e04 (pfn 1d1fb) (XEN) mm.c:2965:d80 Error while pinning mfn 1d2e04 Which means the domain tried to map a pagetable page RW, which would allow it to map arbitrary memory, so Xen stopped it. This is because vm_unmap_ram() left some pages mapped in the vmalloc area after NFS had finished with them, and those pages got recycled as pagetable pages while still having these RW aliases. Removing those mappings immediately removes the Xen-visible aliases, and so it has no problem with those pages being reused as pagetable pages. Deferring the TLB flush doesn't upset Xen because it can flush the TLB itself as needed to maintain its invariants. When unmapping a region in the vmalloc space, clear the ptes immediately. There's no point in deferring this because there's no amortization benefit. The TLBs are left dirty, and they are flushed lazily to amortize the cost of the IPIs. This specific motivation for this patch is an oops-causing regression since 2.6.36 when using NFS under Xen, triggered by the NFS client's use of vm_map_ram() introduced in 56e4ebf877b60 ("NFS: readdir with vmapped pages") . XFS also uses vm_map_ram() and could cause similar problems.

2010-12-02xen: fix MSI setup and teardown for PV on HVM guestsStefano Stabellini
When remapping MSIs into pirqs for PV on HVM guests, qemu is responsible for doing the actual mapping and unmapping. We only give qemu the desired pirq number when we ask to do the mapping the first time, after that we should be reading back the pirq number from qemu every time we want to re-enable the MSI. This fixes a bug in xen_hvm_setup_msi_irqs that manifests itself when trying to enable the same MSI for the second time: the old MSI to pirq mapping is still valid at this point but xen_hvm_setup_msi_irqs would try to assign a new pirq anyway. A simple way to reproduce this bug is to assign an MSI capable network card to a PV on HVM guest, if the user brings down the corresponding ethernet interface and up again, Linux would fail to enable MSIs on the device.

2010-12-01[S390] nohz/s390: fix arch_needs_cpu() return value on offline cpusHeiko Carstens
This fixes the same problem as described in the patch "nohz: fix printk_needs_cpu() return value on offline cpus" for the arch_needs_cpu() primitive: arch_needs_cpu() may return 1 if called on offline cpus. When a cpu gets offlined it schedules the idle process which, before killing its own cpu, will call tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick(). That function in turn will call arch_needs_cpu() in order to check if the local tick can be disabled. On offline cpus this function should naturally return 0 since regardless if the tick gets disabled or not the cpu will be dead short after. That is besides the fact that __cpu_disable() should already have made sure that no interrupts on the offlined cpu will be delivered anyway. In this case it prevents tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() to call select_nohz_load_balancer(). No idea if that really is a problem. However what made me debug this is that on 2.6.32 the function get_nohz_load_balancer() is used within __mod_timer() to select a cpu on which a timer gets enqueued. If arch_needs_cpu() returns 1 then the nohz_load_balancer cpu doesn't get updated when a cpu gets offlined. It may contain the cpu number of an offline cpu. In turn timers get enqueued on an offline cpu and not very surprisingly they never expire and cause system hangs. This has been observed 2.6.32 kernels. On current kernels __mod_timer() uses get_nohz_timer_target() which doesn't have that problem. However there might be other problems because of the too early exit tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() in case a cpu goes offline. This specific bug was indrocuded with 3c5d92a0 "nohz: Introduce arch_needs_cpu". In this case a cpu hotplug notifier is used to fix the issue in order to keep the normal/fast path small. All we need to do is to clear the condition that makes arch_needs_cpu() return 1 since it is just a performance improvement which is supposed to keep the local tick running for a short period if a cpu goes idle. Nothing special needs to be done except for clearing the condition.

2010-12-01sh: Assume new page cache pages have dirty dcache lines.Paul Mundt
This follows the ARM change c01778001a4f5ad9c62d882776235f3f31922fdd ("ARM: 6379/1: Assume new page cache pages have dirty D-cache") for the same rationale: There are places in Linux where writes to newly allocated page cache pages happen without a subsequent call to flush_dcache_page() (several PIO drivers including USB HCD). This patch changes the meaning of PG_arch_1 to be PG_dcache_clean and always flush the D-cache for a newly mapped page in update_mmu_cache(). This addresses issues seen with executing binaries from MMC, in addition to some of the other HCDs that don't explicitly do cache management for their pipe-in buffers.

Thumb-2. The 32-bit conditional branches in Thumb-2 have a shorter range (+/-512K) than their ARM counterparts (+/-32MB). The linker does not currently generate trampolines to extend the range of these Thumb-2 conditional branches, resulting in link errors when vmlinux is sufficiently large, e.g.: head.o:(.text+0x464): relocation truncated to fit: R_ARM_THM_JUMP19 This patch forces the longer-range, unconditional branch encoding by use of an explicit IT instruction.

2010-11-30ARM: 6503/1: Thumb-2: Restore sensible zImage header layout for ↵Dave Martin
CONFIG_THUMB2_KERNEL The code which makes up the zImage header intends to leave a 32-byte gap followed by a branch to the real entry point, a magic number, and a word containing the absolute entry point address. This gets messed up with with CONFIG_THUMB2_KERNEL, because the size of the initial padding NOPs changes. Instead, the header can be made fully compatible by restoring it to ARM. In the Thumb-2 case, we can replace the initial NOPs with a sequence which switches to Thumb and jumps to the real entry point. As a consequence, the zImage entry point is now always ARM, so no special magic is needed any more for the uImage rules in the Thumb-2 case.

In this specific case, we can achieve the desired alignment by forcing a 32-bit branch instruction using the W() macro, since the assembler location counter is already 32-bit aligned in this case.

2010-11-30ARM: 6500/1: Thumb-2: Correct data alignment for CONFIG_THUMB2_KERNEL in ↵Dave Martin
kernel/head.S Directives such as .long and .word do not magically cause the assembler location counter to become aligned in gas. As a result, using these directives in code sections can result in misaligned data words when building a Thumb-2 kernel (CONFIG_THUMB2_KERNEL). This is a Bad Thing, since the ABI permits the compiler to assume that fundamental types of word size or above are word- aligned when accessing them from C. If the data is not really word-aligned, this can cause impaired performance and stray alignment faults in some circumstances.
