mm/debug_pagealloc: fix build failure on ppc and some other archs

2015-02-05T21:35:30+00:00

Kim Phillips reported following build failure.

  LD      init/built-in.o
  mm/built-in.o: In function `free_pages_prepare':
  mm/page_alloc.c:770: undefined reference to `.kernel_map_pages'
  mm/built-in.o: In function `prep_new_page':
  mm/page_alloc.c:933: undefined reference to `.kernel_map_pages'
  mm/built-in.o: In function `map_pages':
  mm/compaction.c:61: undefined reference to `.kernel_map_pages'
  make: *** [vmlinux] Error 1

Reason for this problem is that commit 031bc5743f15
("mm/debug-pagealloc: make debug-pagealloc boottime configurable")
forgot to remove the old declaration of kernel_map_pages() for some
architectures.  This patch removes them to fix build failure.

powerpc: Remove the symbol __flush_icache_range

2013-08-14T04:56:44+00:00

And now the function flush_icache_range() is just a wrapper which
only invoke the function __flush_icache_range() directly. So we
don't have reason to keep it anymore.

powerpc: Move the testing of CPU_FTR_COHERENT_ICACHE into __flush_icache_range

2013-08-14T04:56:06+00:00

In function flush_icache_range(), we use cpu_has_feature() to test
the feature bit of CPU_FTR_COHERENT_ICACHE. But this seems not optimal
for two reasons:
 a) For ppc32, the function __flush_icache_range() already do this
    check with the macro END_FTR_SECTION_IFSET.
 b) Compare with the cpu_has_feature(), the method of using macro
    END_FTR_SECTION_IFSET will not introduce any runtime overhead.

[And while at it, add the missing required isync] -- BenH

powerpc/85xx: add HOTPLUG_CPU support

2012-09-12T19:57:08+00:00

Add support to disable and re-enable individual cores at runtime on
MPC85xx/QorIQ SMP machines. Currently support e500v1/e500v2 core.

MPC85xx machines use ePAPR spin-table in boot page for CPU kick-off.  This
patch uses the boot page from bootloader to boot core at runtime.  It
supports 32-bit and 36-bit physical address.

block: add helpers to run flush_dcache_page() against a bio and a request's pages

2009-11-26T08:16:19+00:00

Mtdblock driver doesn't call flush_dcache_page for pages in request.  So,
this causes problems on architectures where the icache doesn't fill from
the dcache or with dcache aliases.  The patch fixes this.

The ARCH_IMPLEMENTS_FLUSH_DCACHE_PAGE symbol was introduced to avoid
pointless empty cache-thrashing loops on architectures for which
flush_dcache_page() is a no-op.  Every architecture was provided with this
flush pages on architectires where ARCH_IMPLEMENTS_FLUSH_DCACHE_PAGE is
equal 1 or do nothing otherwise.

See "fix mtd_blkdevs problem with caches on some architectures" discussion
on LKML for more information.

powerpc: Move include files to arch/powerpc/include/asm

2008-08-04T02:02:00+00:00

from include/asm-powerpc.  This is the result of a

mkdir arch/powerpc/include/asm
git mv include/asm-powerpc/* arch/powerpc/include/asm

Followed by a few documentation/comment fixups and a couple of places
where  was being used explicitly.  Of the latter only
one was outside the arch code and it is a driver only built for powerpc.
