* powerpc: use device_online/offline() instead of cpu_up/down()Dan Streetman2014-11-021-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In powerpc pseries platform dlpar operations, use device_online() and device_offline() instead of cpu_up() and cpu_down(). Calling cpu_up/down() directly does not update the cpu device offline field, which is used to online/offline a cpu from sysfs. Calling device_online/offline() instead keeps the sysfs cpu online value correct. The hotplug lock, which is required to be held when calling device_online/offline(), is already held when dlpar_online/offline_cpu() are called, since they are called only from cpu_probe|release_store(). This patch fixes errors on phyp (PowerVM) systems that have cpu(s) added/removed using dlpar operations; without this patch, the /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuN/online nodes do not correctly show the online state of added/removed cpus.

* powerpc/pseries: dynamically added OF nodes need to call of_node_initTyrel Datwyler2014-07-221-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 75b57ecf9 refactored device tree nodes to use kobjects such that they can be exposed via /sysfs. A secondary commit 0829f6d1f furthered this rework by moving the kobect initialization logic out of of_node_add into its own of_node_init function. The inital commit removed the existing kref_init calls in the pseries dlpar code with the assumption kobject initialization would occur in of_node_add. The second commit had the side effect of triggering a BUG_ON during DLPAR, migration and suspend/resume operations as a result of dynamically added nodes being uninitialized. This patch fixes this by adding of_node_init calls in place of the previously removed kref_init calls.

* of: Make device nodes kobjects so they show up in sysfsGrant Likely2014-03-111-2/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Device tree nodes are already treated as objects, and we already want to expose them to userspace which is done using the /proc filesystem today. Right now the kernel has to do a lot of work to keep the /proc view in sync with the in-kernel representation. If device_nodes are switched to be kobjects then the device tree code can be a whole lot simpler. It also turns out that switching to using /sysfs from /proc results in smaller code and data size, and the userspace ABI won't change if /proc/device-tree symlinks to /sys/firmware/devicetree/base. v7: Add missing sysfs_bin_attr_init() v6: Add __of_add_property() early init fixes from Pantelis v5: Rename firmware/ofw to firmware/devicetree Fix updating property values in sysfs v4: Fixed build error on Powerpc Fixed handling of dynamic nodes on powerpc v3: Fixed handling of duplicate attribute and child node names v2: switch to using sysfs bin_attributes which solve the problem of reporting incorrect property size.

* hotplug, powerpc, x86: Remove cpu_hotplug_driver_lock()Toshi Kani2013-09-301-27/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | cpu_hotplug_driver_lock() serializes CPU online/offline operations when ARCH_CPU_PROBE_RELEASE is set. This lock interface is no longer necessary with the following reason: - lock_device_hotplug() now protects CPU online/offline operations, including the probe & release interfaces enabled by ARCH_CPU_PROBE_RELEASE. The use of cpu_hotplug_driver_lock() is redundant. - cpu_hotplug_driver_lock() is only valid when ARCH_CPU_PROBE_RELEASE is defined, which is misleading and is only enabled on powerpc. This patch removes the cpu_hotplug_driver_lock() interface. As a result, ARCH_CPU_PROBE_RELEASE only enables / disables the cpu probe & release interface as intended.

* powerpc/pseries: Do all node initialization in dlpar_parse_cc_nodeTyrel Datwyler2013-08-271-2/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently the OF_DYNAMIC and kref initialization for a node happens in dlpar_attach_node. However, a node passed to dlpar_attach_node may be a tree containing child nodes, and no initialization traversal is done on the tree. Since the children never get their kref initialized or the OF_DYNAMIC flag set these nodes are prevented from ever being released from memory should they become detached. This initialization step is better done at the time each node is allocated in dlpar_parse_cc_node.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch moves the notification chain for updates to the device tree from the powerpc/pseries code to the base OF code. This makes this functionality available to all architectures. Additionally the notification chain is updated to allow notifications for property add/remove/update. To make this work a pointer to a new struct (of_prop_reconfig) is passed to the routines in the notification chain. The of_prop_reconfig property contains a pointer to the node containing the property and a pointer to the property itself. In the case of property updates, the property pointer refers to the new property.

* powerpc/pseries: Correct rtas_data_buf locking in dlpar codeNathan Fontenot2010-09-021-13/+29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The dlpar code can cause a deadlock to occur when making the RTAS configure-connector call. This occurs because we make kmalloc calls, which can block, while parsing the rtas_data_buf and holding the rtas_data_buf_lock. This an cause issues if someone else attempts to grab the rtas_data_bug_lock. This patch alleviates this issue by copying the contents of the rtas_data_buf to a local buffer before parsing. This allows us to only hold the rtas_data_buf_lock around the RTAS configure-connector calls.

* powerpc: ONLINE to OFFLINE CPU state transition during removalRobert Jennings2010-07-311-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | If a CPU remove is attempted using the 'release' interface on hardware which supports extended cede, the CPU will be put in the INACTIVE state rather than the OFFLINE state due to the default preferred_offline_state in that situation. In the INACTIVE state it will fail to be removed. This patch changes the preferred offline state to OFFLINE when an CPU is in the ONLINE state. After cpu_down() is called in dlpar_offline_cpu() the CPU will be OFFLINE and CPU removal can continue.

* include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking ↵Tejun Heo2010-03-301-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies. percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is used as the basis of conversion. http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py The script does the followings. * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used, gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h. * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered - alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there doesn't seem to be any matching order. * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the file. The conversion was done in the following steps. 1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400 files. 2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion, some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added inclusions to around 150 files. 3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits from #2 to make sure no file was left behind. 4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed. e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually. 5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as necessary. 6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h. 7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq). * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config. * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig * ia64 SMP allmodconfig * s390 SMP allmodconfig * alpha SMP allmodconfig * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig 8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as a separate patch and serve as bisection point. Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step 6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch. If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of the specific arch.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | deallocate Currently the cpu-allocation/deallocation process comprises of two steps: - Set the indicators and to update the device tree with DLPAR node information. - Online/offline the allocated/deallocated CPU.

At the sametime, the userspace can independently online/offline the CPUs of the system using the sysfs tunable "online". It is quite possible that when a userspace tool offlines a CPU for the purpose of deallocation and is in the process of updating the device tree, some other userspace tool could bring the CPU back online by writing to the "online" sysfs tunable thereby causing the deallocate process to fail.

* powerpc/pseries: Kernel DLPAR InfrastructureNathan Fontenot2009-12-091-0/+344
The Dynamic Logical Partitioning capabilities of the powerpc pseries platform allows for the addition and removal of resources (i.e. CPU's, memory, and PCI devices) from a partition. The removal of a resource involves removing the resource's node from the device tree and then returning the resource to firmware via the rtas set-indicator call. To add a resource, it is first obtained from firmware via the rtas set-indicator call and then a new device tree node is created using the ibm,configure-coinnector rtas call and added to the device tree. This patch provides the kernel DLPAR infrastructure in a new filed named dlpar.c. The functionality provided is for acquiring and releasing a resource from firmware and the parsing of information returned from the ibm,configure-connector rtas call. Additionally this exports the pSeries reconfiguration notifier chain so that it can be invoked when device tree updates are made.
