* Merge branch 'kconfig-diet' from Dave HansenLinus Torvalds2013-07-0424-605/+573
|\ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Merge Kconfig menu diet patches from Dave Hansen: "I think the "Kernel Hacking" menu has gotten a bit out of hand. It is over 120 lines long on my system with everything enabled and options are scattered around it haphazardly. http://sr71.net/~dave/linux/kconfig-horror.png Let's try to introduce some sanity. This set takes that 120 lines down to 55 and makes it vastly easier to find some things. It's a start. This set stands on its own, but there is plenty of room for follow-up patches. The arch-specific debug options still end up getting stuck in the top-level "kernel hacking" menu. OPTIMIZE_INLINING, for instance, could obviously go in to the "compiler options" menu, but the fact that it is defined in arch/ in a separate Kconfig file keeps it on its own for the moment. The Signed-off-by's in here look funky.

There are quite a few options to tweak compilation in some way, or perform extra compile-time checks. Give them their own menu.

| * order memory debugging Kconfig optionsDave Hansen2013-07-041-272/+277
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Original posting: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20121214184203.37E6C724@kernel.stglabs.ibm.com There are a *LOT* of memory debugging options. They are just scattered all over the "Kernel Hacking" menu. Sure, "memory debugging" is a very vague term and it's going to be hard to make absolute rules about what goes in here, but this has to be better than what we had before. This does, however, leave out the architecture-specific memory debugging options (like x86's DEBUG_SET_MODULE_RONX). There would need to be some substantial changes to move those in here. Kconfig can not easily mix arch-specific and generic options together: it really requires a file per-architecture, and I think having an arch/foo/Kconfig.debug-memory might be taking things a bit too far Signed-off-by: Dave Hansen <dave@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

They all pretty much do the same thing, some with slightly differing help text. This patch changes the architectures to instead enable a Kconfig boolean, and then use that boolean in the generic Kconfig.debug to present the actual menu option. This removes a bunch of duplication and adds consistency across arches. Signed-off-by: Dave Hansen <dave@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Reviewed-by: H.

In addition to the usual bug fixes and small updates, the main highlights are: - Support for transparent huge pages by Aneesh Kumar for 64-bit server processors. This allows the use of 16M pages as transparent huge pages on kernels compiled with a 64K base page size. - Base VFIO support for KVM on power by Alexey Kardashevskiy - Wiring up of our nvram to the pstore infrastructure, including putting compressed oopses in there by Aruna Balakrishnaiah - Move, rework and improve our "EEH" (basically PCI error handling and recovery) infrastructure. It is no longer specific to pseries but is now usable by the new "powernv" platform as well (no hypervisor) by Gavin Shan. - I fixed some bugs in our math-emu instruction decoding and made it usable to emulate some optional FP instructions on processors with hard FP that lack them (such as fsqrt on Freescale embedded processors). - Support for Power8 "Event Based Branch" facility by Michael Ellerman. This facility allows what is basically "userspace interrupts" for performance monitor events. - A bunch of Transactional Memory vs. Signals bug fixes and HW breakpoint/watchpoint fixes by Michael Neuling.

When the specified interval times out, the hardware timer generates an interrupt. The driver currently is only tested on fsl chip, but it can potentially support other global timers complying to OpenPIC standard. The two independent groups of global timer on fsl chip, group A and group B, are identical in their functionality, except that they appear at different locations within the PIC register map. The hardware timer can be cascaded to create timers larger than the default 31-bit global timers. Timer cascade fields allow configuration of up to two 63-bit timers. But These two groups of timers cannot be cascaded together. It can be used as a wakeup source for low power modes. It also could be used as periodical timer for protocols, drivers and etc. Signed-off-by: Wang Dongsheng <dongsheng.wang@freescale.com> Signed-off-by: Li Yang <leoli@freescale.com> Signed-off-by: Scott Wood <scottwood@freescale.com>

The Interlaken LA controller connects internal platform to Interlaken serial interface. It accepts LA command through software portals, which are system memory mapped 4KB spaces. The LA commands are then translated into the Interlaken control words and data words, which are sent on TX side to TCAM through SerDes lanes.

I hit problems with variants of kexec that didn't put the initrd in the new style map either. While these could/will be fixed, I believe we should be safe here and rather reserve more than not enough. We could have a firmware passing stuff via the new style map, and in the middle, a kexec that knows nothing about it and adding other things to the old style map. I don't see a big issue with processing both and reserving everything that needs to be. memblock_reserve() supports overlaps fine these days.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The patch set supports compression of oops messages while writing to NVRAM, this helps in capturing more of oops data to lnx,oops-log. The pstore file for oops messages will be in decompressed format making it readable. In case compression fails, the patch takes care of copying the header added by pstore and last oops_data_sz bytes of big_oops_buf to NVRAM so that we have recent oops messages in lnx,oops-log. In case decompression fails, it will result in absence of oops file but still have files (in /dev/pstore) for other partitions.

In 7846de406 we moved back the iommu initialization earlier, essentially undoing 37f02195b which was causing us endless trouble... except that in the meantime we had merged 959c9bdd58 (to workaround the original breakage) which is now ... broken :-) This fixes it by doing a partial revert of the latter (we keep the ppc_md. path which will be needed in the hotplug case, which happens also during some EEH error recovery situations).

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On LPAR systems we need to inform the hypervisor that we are using the EBB registers. We do this by setting a bit in the Virtual Processor Area (VPA) - formerly known as the lppaca. For now we do this always, ie. we do not dynamically enable/disable.

Future processors would also be expected to implement similar constraints. At that time we could possibly factor these out into common code. Finally mark the power8 PMU as supporting EBB, which is the actual enable switch which allows EBBs to be configured.

See the included documentation for more details. EBBs are a feature which allows the hardware to branch directly to a specified user space address when a PMU event overflows. This can be used by programs for self-monitoring with no kernel involvement in the inner loop. Most of the logic is in the generic book3s code, primarily to avoid a proliferation of PMU callbacks.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In commit 59affcd "Context switch more PMU related SPRs" I added more PMU SPRs to thread_struct, later modified in commit b11ae95. To add insult to injury it turns out we don't need to switch MMCRA as it's only user readable, and the value is recomputed by the PMU code.

In order to do this we have to read/modify/write MMCR0. It's possible that we read a value from MMCR0 which has PMAO (PMU Alert Occurred) set. When we write that value back it will cause an interrupt to occur. We will then end up in the PMU interrupt handler even though we are supposed to have just disabled the PMU. We can avoid this by making sure we never write PMAO back. We should not lose interrupts because when the PMU is re-enabled the overflowed values will cause another interrupt. We also reorder the clearing of SAMPLE_ENABLE so that is done after the PMU is frozen. Otherwise there is a small window between the clearing of SAMPLE_ENABLE and the setting of FC where we could take an interrupt and incorrectly see SAMPLE_ENABLE not set. This would for example change the logic in perf_read_regs().

This means that we can't ever assign meaning to those unknown bits in future. Although we have once again failed to do this at release, it is still early days for Power8 so I think we can still slip this in and get away with it.
