* [IA64] Convert ia64 to use int-ll64.hMatthew Wilcox2009-06-171-5/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It is generally agreed that it would be beneficial for u64 to be an unsigned long long on all architectures. ia64 (in common with several other 64-bit architectures) currently uses unsigned long. Migrating piecemeal is too painful; this giant patch fixes all compilation warnings and errors that come as a result of switching to use int-ll64.h. Note that userspace will still see __u64 defined as unsigned long. This is important as it affects C++ name mangling.

* [IA64] kexec fails on systems with blocks of uncached memoryJay Lan2008-09-221-2/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently a memory segment in memory map with attribute of EFI_MEMORY_UC is denoted as "System RAM" in /proc/iomem, while memory of attribute (EFI_MEMORY_WB|EFI_MEMORY_UC) is also labeled the same. The kexec utility then includes uncached memory as part of vmcore. The kdump kernel MCA'ed when it tries to save the vmcore to a disk. A normal "cached" access may cause MCAs. This patch would label memory with attribute of EFI_MEMORY_UC only as "Uncached RAM" so that kexec would know not to include it in the vmcore. I will submit a separate kexec-tools patch to the kexec list. Signed-off-by: Jay Lan <jlan@sgi.com> Acked-by: Simon Horman <horms@verge.net.au> Signed-off-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com>

* [IA64] Multiple outstanding ptc.g instruction supportFenghua Yu2008-04-041-0/+46
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | According to SDM2.2, Itanium supports multiple outstanding ptc.g instructions. But current kernel function ia64_global_tlb_purge() uses a spinlock to serialize ptc.g instructions issued by multiple processors. This serialization might have scalability issue on a big SMP machine where many processors could purge TLB in parallel. The patch fixes this problem by issuing multiple ptc.g instructions in ia64_global_tlb_purge(). It also adds support for the "PALO" table to get a platform view of the max number of outstanding ptc.g instructions (which may be different from the processor view found from PAL_VM_SUMMARY). PALO specification can be found at: http://www.dig64.org/home/DIG64_PALO_R1_0.pdf spinaphore implementation by Matthew Wilcox.

* [IA64] update efi region debugging to use MB, GB and TB as well as KBSimon Horman2008-03-061-4/+22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When EFI_DEBUG is defined to a non-zero value in arch/ia64/kernel/efi.c, the efi memory regions are displayed. This patch enhances the display code in a few ways: 1. Use TB, GB and MB as well as KB as units. Although this introduces rounding errors (KB doesn't as size is always a multiple of 4Kb), it does make things a lot more readable. Also as the range is also shown, it is possible to note the exact size if it is important. In my experience, the size field is mostly useful for getting a general idea of the size of a region. On the rx2620 that I use, there actually is an 8TB region (though not backed by physical memory, and 8TB really is a lot more readable than 8589934592KB. 2. pad the size field with leading spaces to further improve readability ... ...

* kexec: add BSS to resource treeBernhard Walle2007-10-221-1/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add the BSS to the resource tree just as kernel text and kernel data are in the resource tree. The main reason behind this is to avoid crashkernel reservation in that area. While it's not strictly necessary to have the BSS in the resource tree (the actual collision detection is done in the reserve_bootmem() function before), the usage of the BSS resource should be presented to the user in /proc/iomem just as Kernel data and Kernel code. Note: The patch currently is only implemented for x86 and ia64 (because efi_initialize_iomem_resources() has the same signature on i386 and ia64).

* Use extended crashkernel command line on ia64Bernhard Walle2007-10-191-1/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adapts IA64 to use the generic parse_crashkernel() function instead of its own parsing for the crashkernel command line. Because the total amount of System RAM must be known when calling this function, efi_memmap_init() is modified to return its accumulated total_memory variable. Also, the crashkernel handling is moved in an own function in arch/ia64/kernel/setup.c to make the code more readable.

With the example above, this mmap must fail because there's no memory attribute that's safe for the entire area. Prior to this patch, we performed the mmap with a UC mapping. When X accessed the WB memory at 0xC0000, it caused an MCA. The crash can happen when mapping 0xC0000 from either /dev/mem or a /sys/.../legacy_mem file.

* [IA64] kexec: Use EFI_LOADER_DATA for ELF core headerMagnus Damm2007-03-061-0/+30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The address where the ELF core header is stored is passed to the secondary kernel as a kernel command line option. The memory area for this header is also marked as a separate EFI memory descriptor on ia64. The separate EFI memory descriptor is at the moment of the type EFI_UNUSABLE_MEMORY. With such a type the secondary kernel skips over the entire memory granule (config option, 16M or 64M) when detecting memory. If we are lucky we will just lose some memory, but if we happen to have data in the same granule (such as an initramfs image), then this data will never get mapped and the kernel bombs out when trying to access it. So this is an attempt to fix this by changing the EFI memory descriptor type into EFI_LOADER_DATA. This type is the same type used for the kernel data and for initramfs. In the secondary kernel we then handle the ELF core header data the same way as we handle the initramfs image. This patch contains the kernel changes to make this happen. Pretty straightforward, we reserve the area in reserve_memory(). The address for the area comes from the kernel command line and the size comes from the specialized EFI parsing function vmcore_find_descriptor_size().

* [PATCH] make valid_mmap_phys_addr_range() take a pfnLennert Buytenhek2006-07-101-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Newer ARMs have a 40 bit physical address space, but mapping physical memory above 4G needs a special page table format which we (currently?) do not use for userspace mappings, so what happens instead is that mapping an address >= 4G will happily discard the upper bits and wrap. There is a valid_mmap_phys_addr_range() arch hook where we could check for >= 4G addresses and deny the mapping, but this hook takes an unsigned long address: static inline int valid_mmap_phys_addr_range(unsigned long addr, size_t size); And drivers/char/mem.c:mmap_mem() calls it like this: static int mmap_mem(struct file * file, struct vm_area_struct * vma) { size_t size = vma->vm_end - vma->vm_start; if (!valid_mmap_phys_addr_range(vma->vm_pgoff << PAGE_SHIFT, size)) So that's not much help either.

* [IA64] rework memory attribute aliasingBjorn Helgaas2006-05-081-54/+102
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This closes a couple holes in our attribute aliasing avoidance scheme: - The current kernel fails mmaps of some /dev/mem MMIO regions because they don't appear in the EFI memory map. This keeps X from working on the Intel Tiger box. - The current kernel allows UC mmap of the 0-1MB region of /sys/.../legacy_mem even when the chipset doesn't support UC access. This causes an MCA when starting X on HP rx7620 and rx8620 boxes in the default configuration. There's more detail in the Documentation/ia64/aliasing.txt file this adds, but the general idea is that if a region might be covered by a granule-sized kernel identity mapping, any access via /dev/mem or mmap must use the same attribute as the identity mapping. Otherwise, we fall back to using an attribute that is supported according to the EFI memory map, or to using UC if the EFI memory map doesn't mention the region.

* [PATCH] EFI: keep physical table addresses in efi structureBjorn Helgaas2006-03-261-6/+15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Almost all users of the table addresses from the EFI system table want physical addresses. So rather than doing the pa->va->pa conversion, just keep physical addresses in struct efi. This fixes a DMI bug: the efi structure contained the physical SMBIOS address on x86 but the virtual address on ia64, so dmi_scan_machine() used ioremap() on a virtual address on ia64. This is essentially the same as an earlier patch by Matt Tolentino: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=112130292316281&w=2 except that this changes all table addresses, not just ACPI addresses. Matt's original patch was backed out because it caused MCAs on HP sx1000 systems. That problem is resolved by the ioremap() attribute checking added for ia64.

* [PATCH] EFI, /dev/mem: simplify efi_mem_attribute_range()Bjorn Helgaas2006-03-261-21/+20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Pass the size, not a pointer to the size, to efi_mem_attribute_range(). This function validates memory regions for the /dev/mem read/write/mmap paths. The pointer allows arches to reduce the size of the range, but I think that's unnecessary complexity. Simplifying it will let me use efi_mem_attribute_range() to improve the ia64 ioremap() implementation.

* [PATCH] /dev/mem: validate mmap requestsBjorn Helgaas2006-01-081-49/+111
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add a hook so architectures can validate /dev/mem mmap requests. This is analogous to validation we already perform in the read/write paths. The identity mapping scheme used on ia64 requires that each 16MB or 64MB granule be accessed with exactly one attribute (write-back or uncacheable). This avoids "attribute aliasing", which can cause a machine check. Sample problem scenario: - Machine supports VGA, so it has uncacheable (UC) MMIO at 640K-768K - efi_memmap_init() discards any write-back (WB) memory in the first granule - Application (e.g., "hwinfo") mmaps /dev/mem, offset 0 - hwinfo receives UC mapping (the default, since memmap says "no WB here") - Machine check abort (on chipsets that don't support UC access to WB memory, e.g., sx1000) In the scenario above, the only choices are - Use WB for hwinfo mmap. Can't do this because it causes attribute aliasing with the UC mapping for the VGA MMIO space. - Use UC for hwinfo mmap. Can't do this because the chipset may not support UC for that region. - Disallow the hwinfo mmap with -EINVAL. That's what this patch does.

* [PATCH] ia64 uncached allocJes Sorensen2005-06-211-0/+32
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch contains the ia64 uncached page allocator and the generic allocator (genalloc). The uncached allocator was formerly part of the SN2 mspec driver but there are several other users of it so it has been split off from the driver. The generic allocator can be used by device driver to manage special memory etc. The generic allocator is based on the allocator from the sym53c8xx_2 driver. Various users on ia64 needs uncached memory. The SGI SN architecture requires it for inter-partition communication between partitions within a large NUMA cluster. The specific user for this is the XPC code. Another application is large MPI style applications which use it for synchronization, on SN this can be done using special 'fetchop' operations but it also benefits non SN hardware which may use regular uncached memory for this purpose. Performance of doing this through uncached vs cached memory is pretty substantial. This is handled by the mspec driver which I will push out in a seperate patch. Rather than creating a specific allocator for just uncached memory I came up with genalloc which is a generic purpose allocator that can be used by device drivers and other subsystems as they please. For instance to handle onboard device memory. It was derived from the sym53c7xx_2 driver's allocator which is also an example of a potential user (I am refraining from modifying sym2 right now as it seems to have been under fairly heavy development recently). On ia64 memory has various properties within a granule, ie. it isn't safe to access memory as uncached within the same granule as currently has memory accessed in cached mode. The regular system therefore doesn't utilize memory in the lower granules which is mixed in with device PAL code etc. The uncached driver walks the EFI memmap and pulls out the spill uncached pages and sticks them into the uncached pool. Only after these chunks have been utilized, will it start converting regular cached memory into uncached memory. Hence the reason for the EFI related code additions.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
