* x86: early boot debugging via FireWire (ohci1394_dma=early)Bernhard Kaindl2008-01-303-0/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds a new configuration option, which adds support for a new early_param which gets checked in arch/x86/kernel/setup_{32,64}.c:setup_arch() to decide wether OHCI-1394 FireWire controllers should be initialized and enabled for physical DMA access to allow remote debugging of early problems like issues ACPI or other subsystems which are executed very early. If the config option is not enabled, no code is changed, and if the boot paramenter is not given, no new code is executed, and independent of that, all new code is freed after boot, so the config option can be even enabled in standard, non-debug kernels. With specialized tools, it is then possible to get debugging information from machines which have no serial ports (notebooks) such as the printk buffer contents, or any data which can be referenced from global pointers, if it is stored below the 4GB limit and even memory dumps of of the physical RAM region below the 4GB limit can be taken without any cooperation from the CPU of the host, so the machine can be crashed early, it does not matter. In the extreme, even kernel debuggers can be accessed in this way. I wrote a small kgdb module and an accompanying gdb stub for FireWire which allows to gdb to talk to kgdb using remote remory reads and writes over FireWire. An version of the gdb stub fore FireWire is able to read all global data from a system which is running a a normal kernel without any kernel debugger, without any interruption or support of the system's CPU. That way, e.g. the task struct and so on can be read and even manipulated when the physical DMA access is granted. A HOWTO is included in this patch, in Documentation/debugging-via-ohci1394.txt and I've put a copy online at ftp://ftp.suse.de/private/bk/firewire/docs/debugging-via-ohci1394.txt It also has links to all the tools which are available to make use of it another copy of it is online at: ftp://ftp.suse.de/private/bk/firewire/kernel/ohci1394_dma_early-v2.diff Signed-Off-By: Bernhard Kaindl <bk@suse.de> Tested-By: Thomas Renninger <trenn@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
* x86: don't special-case pmd allocations as muchJeremy Fitzhardinge2008-01-303-17/+47
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In x86 PAE mode, stop treating pmds as a special case. Previously they were always allocated and freed with the pgd. The modifies the code to be the same as 64-bit mode, where they are allocated on demand. This is a step on the way to unifying 32/64-bit pagetable allocation as much as possible. There is a complicating wart, however. When you install a new reference to a pmd in the pgd, the processor isn't guaranteed to see it unless you reload cr3. Since reloading cr3 also has the side-effect of flushing the tlb, this is an expense that we want to avoid whereever possible. This patch simply avoids reloading cr3 unless the update is to the current pagetable. Later patches will optimise this further.

* x86: make ioremap() UC by defaultIngo Molnar2008-01-301-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Yes! A mere 120 c_p_a() fixing and rewriting patches later, we are now confident that we can enable UC by default for ioremap(), on x86 too. Every other architectures was doing this already. Doing so makes Linux more robust against MTRR mixups (which might go unnoticed if BIOS writers test other OSs only - where PAT might override bad MTRRs defaults).

* x86: add testcases for RODATA and NX protections/attributesArjan van de Ven2008-01-302-0/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Latest update; I now have 4 NX tests, but 2 fail so they're #if 0'd. I also cleaned up the NX test code quite a bit, and got rid of the ugly exception table sorting stuff. From: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@linux.intel.com> This patch adds testcases for the CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA configuration option as well as the NX CPU feature/mappings. Both testcases can move to tests/ once that patch gets merged into mainline. (I'm half considering moving the rodata test into mm/init.c but I'll wait with that until init.c is unified) As part of this I had to fix a not-quite-right alignment in the vmlinux.lds.h for the RODATA sections, which lead to 1 page less being marked read only.

* x86: a new API for drivers/etc to control cache and other page attributesArjan van de Ven2008-01-301-0/+15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Right now, if drivers or other code want to change, say, a cache attribute of a page, the only API they have is change_page_attr(). c-p-a is a really bad API for this, because it forces the caller to know *ALL* the attributes he wants for the page, not just the 1 thing he wants to change. So code that wants to set a page uncachable, needs to be aware of the NX status as well etc etc etc. This patch introduces a set of new APIs for this, set_pages_<attr> and set_memory_<attr>, that offer a logical change to the user, and leave all attributes not implied by the requested logical change alone.

* x86: GEODE: update GPIO API to support setting multiple GPIOs at onceAndres Salomon2008-01-301-3/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The existing Geode GPIO API only allows for updating one GPIO at once. There are instances where users want to update multiple GPIOs at once. With the current API, they are given two choices; either ignore the GPIO API: outl(0xc000, gpio_base + GPIO_OUTPUT_VAL); outl(0xc000, gpio_base + GPIO_OUTPUT_ENABLE); Alternatively, call each GPIO update separately: geode_gpio_set(14, GPIO_OUTPUT_VAL); geode_gpio_set(15, GPIO_OUTPUT_VAL); geode_gpio_set(14, GPIO_OUTPUT_ENABLE); geode_gpio_set(15, GPIO_OUTPUT_ENABLE); Neither are desirable. This patch changes the GPIO API to allow for setting of multiple GPIOs at once; rather than being passed an integer, we pass a bitmask and provide a translation function. The above code would now look like this: geode_gpio_set(geode_gpio(14)|geode_gpio(15), GPIO_OUTPUT_VAL); geode_gpio_set(geode_gpio(14)|geode_gpio(15), GPIO_OUTPUT_ENABLE); Since there are no upstream users of the GPIO API yet (afaik), best to change this now. This also adds a bit of sanity checking; it is no longer possible to use a GPIO above 28. Note the semantics of geode_gpio_isset() have changed: geode_gpio_isset(geode_gpio(3)|geode_gpio(4), ...) will only return true iff both GPIOs are set.

* x86, rtc: make CONFIG_HPET_EMULATE_RTC usable from modulesBernhard Walle2008-01-301-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | enabled, then interrupts don't work for the rtc-cmos driver which results in RTC_AIE*, RTC_PIE* and RTC_ALM being unusable. This affects hwclock from util-linux-ng at least on i386 since that uses RTC_PIE_ON. (For x86-64, a polling method is used for unknown reasons.) This patch series now 1. export the functions from arch/x86/kernel/hpet.c that the old char/rtc driver uses to work around that problem, 2. makes it possible to compile the old rtc driver as module, while still having CONFIG_HPET_EMULATE_RTC enabled and 3. makes use of the exported functions in (1) in the new rtc-cmos driver. This patch: This patch makes the RTC emulation functions in arch/x86/kernel/hpet.c usable for kernel modules. It - exports the functions (EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL()), - adds an interface to register the interrupt callback function instead of using only a fixed callback function and - replaces the rtc_get_rtc_time() function which depends on CONFIG_RTC with a call to get_rtc_time() which is defined in include/asm-generic/rtc.h. The only dependency to CONFIG_RTC is the call to rtc_interrupt() which is removed by the next patch. After this, there's no (code) dependency of this functions to CONFIG_RTC=y any more.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Change the size of node ids for X86_64 from u8 to s16 to accomodate more than 32k nodes and allow for NUMA_NO_NODE (-1) to be sign extended to int.
