git://git.linaro.org/people/mszyprowski/linux-dma-mapping Pull DMA-mapping updates from Marek Szyprowski: "Those patches are continuation of my earlier work. They contains extensions to DMA-mapping framework to remove limitation of the current ARM implementation (like limited total size of DMA coherent/write combine buffers), improve performance of buffer sharing between devices (attributes to skip cpu cache operations or creation of additional kernel mapping for some specific use cases) as well as some unification of the common code for dma_mmap_attrs() and dma_mmap_coherent() functions. All extensions have been implemented and tested for ARM architecture." * 'for-linus-for-3.6-rc1' of git://git.linaro.org/people/mszyprowski/linux-dma-mapping: ARM: dma-mapping: add support for DMA_ATTR_SKIP_CPU_SYNC attribute common: DMA-mapping: add DMA_ATTR_SKIP_CPU_SYNC attribute ARM: dma-mapping: add support for dma_get_sgtable() common: dma-mapping: introduce dma_get_sgtable() function ARM: dma-mapping: add support for DMA_ATTR_NO_KERNEL_MAPPING attribute common: DMA-mapping: add DMA_ATTR_NO_KERNEL_MAPPING attribute common: dma-mapping: add support for generic dma_mmap_* calls ARM: dma-mapping: fix error path for memory allocation failure ARM: dma-mapping: add more sanity checks in arm_dma_mmap() ARM: dma-mapping: remove custom consistent dma region mm: vmalloc: use const void * for caller argument scatterlist: add sg_alloc_table_from_pages function
2012-07-30common: dma-mapping: add support for generic dma_mmap_* callsMarek Szyprowski4-17/+22
Commit 9adc5374 ('common: dma-mapping: introduce mmap method') added a generic method for implementing mmap user call to dma_map_ops structure. This patch converts ARM and PowerPC architectures (the only providers of dma_mmap_coherent/dma_mmap_writecombine calls) to use this generic dma_map_ops based call and adds a generic cross architecture definition for dma_mmap_attrs, dma_mmap_coherent, dma_mmap_writecombine functions. The generic mmap virt_to_page-based fallback implementation is provided for architectures which don't provide their own implementation for mmap method.

2012-07-27powerpc/ftrace: Trace function graph entry before updating indexSteven Rostedt1-6/+5
As Colin Cross ported my x86 change to ARM, he also pointed out that powerpc is also behind in this fix. The commit 722b3c746953 "ftrace/graph: Trace function entry before updating index" fixes an issue with function graph tracing for x86, where if the called entry function decides not to trace interrupts, it can fail the check if an interrupt comes in just after the curr_ret_stack is updated. The solution is to call the entry function first, then update the curr_ret_stack if the entry function wants to be traced.

I basically removed the test and always create the added stack frame whether coming from user or kernel since in any case we do need to save a bunch of volatile registers or bad things would happen (we can take page faults in the kernel for example).

2012-07-10powerpc: More fixes for lazy IRQ vs. idleBenjamin Herrenschmidt1-0/+46
Looks like we still have issues with pSeries and Cell idle code vs. the lazy irq state. In fact, the reset fixes that went upstream are exposing the problem more by causing BUG_ON() to trigger (which this patch turns into a WARN_ON instead). We need to be careful when using a variant of low power state that has the side effect of turning interrupts back on, to properly set all the SW & lazy state to look as if everything is enabled before we enter the low power state with MSR:EE off as we will return with MSR:EE on. If not, we have a discrepancy of state which can cause things to go very wrong later on. This patch moves the logic into a helper and uses it from the pseries and cell idle code. The power4/970 idle code already got things right (in assembly even !) so I'm not touching it. The power7 "bare metal" idle code is subtly different and correct. Remains PA6T and some hypervisor based Cell platforms which have questionable code in there, but they are mostly dead platforms so I'll fix them when I manage to get final answers from the respective maintainers about how the low power state actually works on them.

2012-07-03powerpc/iommu: Implement IOMMU pools to improve multiqueue adapter performanceAnton Blanchard1-34/+114
At the moment all queues in a multiqueue adapter will serialise against the IOMMU table lock. This is proving to be a big issue, especially with 10Gbit ethernet. This patch creates 4 pools and tries to spread the load across them. If the table is under 1GB in size we revert back to the original behaviour of 1 pool and 1 largealloc pool. We create a hash to map CPUs to pools. Since we prefer interrupts to be affinitised to primary CPUs, without some form of hashing we are very likely to end up using the same pool. As an example, POWER7 has 4 way SMT and with 4 pools all primary threads will map to the same pool. The largealloc pool is reduced from 1/2 to 1/4 of the space to partially offset the overhead of breaking the table up into pools. Some performance numbers were obtained with a Chelsio T3 adapter on two POWER7 boxes, running a 100 session TCP round robin test. Performance improved 69% with this patch applied.

2012-06-29powerpc/ftrace: Do not trace restore_interrupts()Steven Rostedt1-1/+1
As I was adding code that affects all archs, I started testing function tracer against PPC64 and found that it currently locks up with 3.4 kernel. I figured it was due to tracing a function that shouldn't be, so I went through the following process to bisect to find the culprit: cat /debug/tracing/available_filter_functions > t num=`wc -l t` sed -ne "1,${num}p" t > t1 let num=num+1 sed -ne "${num},$p" t > t2 cat t1 > /debug/tracing/set_ftrace_filter echo function /debug/tracing/current_tracer <failed? bisect t1, if not bisect t2> It finally came down to this function: restore_interrupts() I'm not sure why this locks up the system. It just seems to prevent scheduling from occurring. Interrupts seem to still work, as I can ping the box. But all user processes freeze. When restore_interrupts() is not traced, function tracing works fine.

2012-06-29powerpc: Fix Section mismatch warnings in prom_init.cLi Zhong1-2/+2
This patches tries to fix a couple of Section mismatch warnings like following one: WARNING: arch/powerpc/kernel/built-in.o(.text+0x2923c): Section mismatch in reference from the function .prom_query_opal() to the function .init.text:.call_prom() The function .prom_query_opal() references the function __init .call_prom(). This is often because .prom_query_opal lacks a __init annotation or the annotation of .call_prom is wrong.

2012-06-29ppc64: fix missing to check all bits of _TIF_USER_WORK_MASK in preemptTiejun Chen1-57/+40
In entry_64.S version of ret_from_except_lite, you'll notice that in the !preempt case, after we've checked MSR_PR we test for any TIF flag in _TIF_USER_WORK_MASK to decide whether to go to do_work or not. However, in the preempt case, we do a convoluted trick to test SIGPENDING only if PR was set and always test NEED_RESCHED ... but we forget to test any other bit of _TIF_USER_WORK_MASK !!! So that means that with preempt, we completely fail to test for things like single step, syscall tracing, etc... This should be fixed as the following path: - Test PR. If not set, go to resume_kernel, else continue. - If go resume_kernel, to do that original do_work. - If else, then always test for _TIF_USER_WORK_MASK to decide to do that original user_work, else restore directly.

2012-06-13powerpc/PCI: register busn_res for root busesYinghai Lu2-7/+12
Add the host bridge bus number aperture to the resource list. Like the MMIO and I/O port apertures, this is used when assigning resources to hot-added devices or in the case of conflicts.

2012-06-08powerpc: Fix kernel panic during kernel module loadSteffen Rumler1-6/+5
This fixes a problem which can causes kernel oopses while loading a kernel module. According to the PowerPC EABI specification, GPR r11 is assigned the dedicated function to point to the previous stack frame. In the powerpc-specific kernel module loader, do_plt_call() (in arch/powerpc/kernel/module_32.c), GPR r11 is also used to generate trampoline code. This combination crashes the kernel, in the case where the compiler chooses to use a helper function for saving GPRs on entry, and the module loader has placed the .init.text section far away from the .text section, meaning that it has to generate a trampoline for functions in the .init.text section to call the GPR save helper. Because the trampoline trashes r11, references to the stack frame using r11 can cause an oops. The fix just uses GPR r12 instead of GPR r11 for generating the trampoline code. According to the statements from Freescale, this is safe from an EABI perspective. I've tested the fix for kernel 2.6.33 on MPC8541.
