| | | | | | | | | When taking recursive faults in do_exit, if the io_context is not null, exit_io_context() is being called. But it might decrement the refcount more than once.

* block: leave the request timeout timer running even on an empty listJens Axboe2008-12-292-4/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | For sync IO, we'll often do them serialized. This means we'll be touching the queue timer for every IO, as opposed to only occasionally like we do for queued IO. Instead of deleting the timer when the last request is removed, just let continue running. If a new request comes up soon we then don't have to readd the timer again. If no new requests arrive, the timer will expire without side effect later. This improves high iops sync IO by ~1%. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>

* xen-blkfront: set queue paravirt flagFernando Luis Vázquez Cao2008-12-291-7/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | Xen's blkfront sets noop as the default I/O scheduler at initialization time to avoid elevator overheads such as idling, but with the advent of basic disk profiling capabilities this is not necessary anymore.

| * powerpc/44x: Support 16K/64K base page sizes on 44xIlya Yanok2008-12-2910-48/+130
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This adds support for 16k and 64k page sizes on PowerPC 44x processors. The PGDIR table is much smaller than a page when using 16k or 64k pages (512 and 32 bytes respectively) so we allocate the PGDIR with kzalloc() instead of __get_free_pages(). One PTE table covers rather a large memory area when using 16k or 64k pages (32MB or 512MB respectively), so we can easily put FIXMAP and PKMAP in the area covered by one PTE table.

| * powerpc/32: Allow __ioremap on RAM addresses for kdump kernelAnton Vorontsov2008-12-231-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | While for debugging it is good to catch bogus users of ioremap, though for kdump support it is more convenient to use __ioremap for copy_oldmem_page() (exactly as we do for PPC64 currently). Note that copy_oldmem_page() calls __ioremap with flags set to '0', so it should be safe with the regard to the caches. The other option is to use kmap_atomic_pfn()[1], but it will not work for kernels compiled without HIGHMEM. That is, on a board with 256MB RAM and crashkernel=64M@32M case, the !HIGHMEM capturing kernel maps 0-96M range, which does not include all the memory needed to capture the dump. And, obviously, accessing anything upper than 96M will cause faults.

| * powerpc/pseries: Fix cpu hotplugSebastien Dugue2008-12-231-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, pseries_cpu_die() calls msleep() while polling RTAS for the status of the dying cpu. However, if the cpu that is going down also happens to be the one doing the tick then we're hosed as the tick_do_timer_cpu 'baton' is only passed later on in tick_shutdown() when _cpu_down() does the CPU_DEAD notification. Therefore jiffies won't be updated anymore. This replaces that msleep() with a cpu_relax() to make sure we're not going to schedule at that point. With this patch my test box survives a 100k iterations hotplug stress test on _all_ cpus, whereas without it, it quickly dies after ~50 iterations.

This causes problems because the various bcom_... functions dereference the buffer descriptor pointer by using the array operator which doesn't work when the buffer descriptors are a different size. This patch adds the bcom_get_bd() function which uses the value in bcom_task.bd_size to calculate the offset into the BD table. This patch also changes the definition of bcom_bd to specify a data size of 0 instead of 1 so that it will never work if anyone attempts to dereference the bd list as an array (as opposed to something that might work even though it is wrong). Finally, this patch moves the definition of bcom_bd up in the file to eliminate a forward declaration. Based on patch originally written by Tim Yamin.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | After discussing with chip designers, it appears that it's not necessary to set G everywhere on 440 cores. The various core errata related to prefetch should be sorted out by firmware by disabling icache prefetching in CCR0. We add the workaround to the kernel however just in case oooold firmwares don't do it. This is valid for -all- 4xx core variants. Later ones hard wire the absence of prefetch but it doesn't harm to clear the bits in CCR0 (they should already be cleared anyway). We still leave G=1 on the linear mapping for now, we need to stop over-mapping RAM to be able to remove it.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, we never set _PAGE_COHERENT in the PTEs, we just OR it in in the hash code based on some CPU feature bit. We also manipulate _PAGE_NO_CACHE and _PAGE_GUARDED by hand in all sorts of places. This changes the logic so that instead, the PTE now contains _PAGE_COHERENT for all normal RAM pages thay have I = 0 on platforms that need it. The hash code clears it if the feature bit is not set. It also adds some clean accessors to setup various valid combinations of access flags and change various bits of code to use them instead. This should help having the PTE actually containing the bit combinations that we really want. I also removed _PAGE_GUARDED from _PAGE_BASE on 44x and instead set it explicitely from the TLB miss. I will ultimately remove it completely as it appears that it might not be needed after all but in the meantime, having it in the TLB miss makes things a lot easier.

| * powerpc/mm: Runtime allocation of mmu context maps for nohash CPUsBenjamin Herrenschmidt2008-12-213-54/+116
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This makes the MMU context code used for CPUs with no hash table (except 603) dynamically allocate the various maps used to track the state of contexts. Only the main free map and CPU 0 stale map are allocated at boot time. Other CPU maps are allocated when those CPUs are brought up and freed if they are unplugged. This also moves the initialization of the MMU context management slightly later during the boot process, which should be fine as it's really only needed when userland if first started anyways.

| * powerpc/mm: Split low level tlb invalidate for nohash processorsBenjamin Herrenschmidt2008-12-217-249/+292
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, the various forms of low level TLB invalidations are all implemented in misc_32.S for 32-bit processors, in a fairly scary mess of #ifdef's and with interesting duplication such as a whole bunch of code for FSL _tlbie and _tlbia which are no longer used. This moves things around such that _tlbie is now defined in hash_low_32.S and is only used by the 32-bit hash code, and all nohash CPUs use the various _tlbil_* forms that are now moved to a new file, tlb_nohash_low.S. I moved all the definitions for that stuff out of include/asm/tlbflush.h as they are really internal mm stuff, into mm/mmu_decl.h The code should have no functional changes. I kept some variants inline for trivial forms on things like 40x and 8xx.

| * powerpc/mm: Add SMP support to no-hash TLB handlingBenjamin Herrenschmidt2008-12-2110-57/+281
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This commit moves the whole no-hash TLB handling out of line into a new tlb_nohash.c file, and implements some basic SMP support using IPIs and/or broadcast tlbivax instructions. Note that I'm using local invalidations for D->I cache coherency. At worst, if another processor is trying to execute the same and has the old entry in its TLB, it will just take a fault and re-do the TLB flush locally (it won't re-do the cache flush in any case).

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We're soon running out of CPU features and I need to add some new ones for various MMU related bits, so this patch separates the MMU features from the CPU features. I moved over the 32-bit MMU related ones, added base features for MMU type families, but didn't move over any 64-bit only feature yet.
