* mtd: maps: bcm963xx-flash: make CFE partition parsing an mtd parserJonas Gorski2012-01-095-150/+202
| | | | | | | | | | | | Recent BCM63XX devices support a variety of flash types (parallel, SPI, NAND) and share the partition layout. To prevent code duplication make the CFE partition parsing code a stand alone mtd parser to allow SPI or NAND flash drivers to use it.

* mtd: docg3: add fast modeRobert Jarzmik2012-01-092-20/+75
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Docg3 chips can work in 3 modes : normal MLC mode, fast mode and reliable mode. Normally, as docg3 is a MLC chip, it should be configured to work in normal mode. In both normal mode, each page is distinct. This means that writing to page 12 of blocks 14,15 writes only to that page, and reading from page 12 of blocks 14,15 reads only from that page. In reliable and fast modes, pages are coupled by pairs, and are clones one of each other. This means that the available capacity of the chip is halved. Pages are coupled in each block, and page of index 2*n contains the same data as page 2*n+1 of the same block. In fast mode, the reads occur a bit faster, but are a bit less reliable that in normal mode. When reading from page 2*n, the chip reads bytes from both page 2*n and page 2*n+1, makes a logical and for each byte, and returns the result. As programming a page means "clearing bits", even if a bit was not cleared on one page because the flash is worn out, the other page has the bit cleared, and the result of the "AND" gives a correct result. When writing to page 2*n, the chip writes data to both page 2*n and page 2*n+1.

As docg3_read_oob() handles all the funny cases (no data buffer but oob buffer, data buffer but no oob buffer, ...), docg3_read() is just a special use of docg3_read_oob().

This meant that, while the error path was handled correctly on the first time through blktrans_open(), the device is erroneously considered already open on the second time through. This problem can be seen, for instance, when a UBI volume is simultaneously mounted as a UBIFS partition and read through its corresponding gluebi mtdblockX device. This results in blktrans_open() passing its error checks (with `dev->open > 0') without actually having a handle on the device.

Soft-lockups detected as a consequence of this race was reported earlier at https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/8/24/185. (Thanks to Cong Meng for finding out that the root-cause of this issue is the race condition between br_write_[un]lock() and CPU hotplug, which results in the lock states getting messed up). Fixing this race by just adding {get,put}_online_cpus() at appropriate places in *_global_[un]lock_online() is not a good option, because, then suddenly br_write_[un]lock() would become blocking, whereas they have been kept as non-blocking all this time, and we would want to keep them that way. So, overall, we want to ensure 3 things: 1. br_write_lock() and br_write_unlock() must remain as non-blocking. 2. The corresponding lock and unlock of the per-cpu spinlocks must not happen for different sets of CPUs. 3. Either prevent any new CPU online operation in between this lock-unlock, or ensure that the newly onlined CPU does not proceed with its corresponding per-cpu spinlock unlocked. To achieve all this: (a) We introduce a new spinlock that is taken by the *_global_lock_online() routine and released by the *_global_unlock_online() routine. (b) We register a callback for CPU hotplug notifications, and this callback takes the same spinlock as above. (c) We maintain a bitmap which is close to the cpu_online_mask, and once it is initialized in the lock_init() code, all future updates to it are done in the callback, under the above spinlock. (d) The above bitmap is used (instead of cpu_online_mask) while locking and unlocking the per-cpu locks. The callback takes the spinlock upon the CPU_UP_PREPARE event. So, if the br_write_lock-unlock sequence is in progress, the callback keeps spinning, thus preventing the CPU online operation till the lock-unlock sequence is complete. This takes care of requirement (3). The bitmap that we maintain remains unmodified throughout the lock-unlock sequence, since all updates to it are managed by the callback, which takes the same spinlock as the one taken by the lock code and released only by the unlock routine. Combining this with (d) above, satisfies requirement (2). Overall, since we use a spinlock (mentioned in (a)) to prevent CPU hotplug operations from racing with br_write_lock-unlock, requirement (1) is also taken care of. By the way, it is to be noted that a CPU offline operation can actually run in parallel with our lock-unlock sequence, because our callback doesn't react to notifications earlier than CPU_DEAD (in order to maintain our bitmap properly). And this means, since we use our own bitmap (which is stale, on purpose) during the lock-unlock sequence, we could end up unlocking the per-cpu lock of an offline CPU (because we had locked it earlier, when the CPU was online), in order to satisfy requirement (2). But this is harmless, though it looks a bit awkward. Debugged-by: Cong Meng <mc@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Srivatsa S.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 5c48b108 ("um: take arch/um/sys-x86 to arch/x86/um") broke the make target update-po-config, as its symlink trick (again) fails. (Previous breakage was fixed with commit bdc69ca4 ("kconfig: change update-po-config to reflect new layout of arch/um").) The new UML layout allows to drop the symlick trick entirely. And if, one day, another architecture supports UML too, that should now work without again breaking this make target.

We need to set the MSIQ to VALID before we can set it's state to IDLE. On Niagara-T3, setting the state to IDLE first was causing HV_EINVAL errors. The hypervisor documentation says, rather ambiguously, that the MSIQ must be "initialized" before one can set the state. I previously understood this to mean merely that a successful setconf() operation has been performed on the MSIQ, which we have done at this point. But it seems to also mean that it has been set VALID too. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
