powerpc: Keep thread.dscr and thread.dscr_inherit in sync

2012-09-19T14:04:41+00:00

commit 00ca0de02f80924dfff6b4f630e1dff3db005e35 upstream.

When we update the DSCR either via emulation of mtspr(DSCR) or via
a change to dscr_default in sysfs we don't update thread.dscr.
We will eventually update it at context switch time but there is
a period where thread.dscr is incorrect.

If we fork at this point we will copy the old value of thread.dscr
into the child. To avoid this, always keep thread.dscr in sync with
reality.

This issue was found with the following testcase:

powerpc: Remove extraneous CONFIG_PPC_ADV_DEBUG_REGS define

2011-11-17T05:26:07+00:00

All of DebugException is already protected by CONFIG_PPC_ADV_DEBUG_REGS
there is no need to have another such ifdef inside the function.

powerpc/fsl-booke: Handle L1 D-cache parity error correctly on e500mc

2011-10-07T04:36:55+00:00

If the L1 D-Cache is in write shadow mode the HW will auto-recover the
error.  However we might still log the error and cause a machine check
(if L1CSR0[CPE] - Cache error checking enable).  We should only treat
the non-write shadow case as non-recoverable.

powerpc/e500: Save SPEFCSR in flush_spe_to_thread()

2011-07-12T10:16:30+00:00

giveup_spe() saves the SPE state which is protected by MSR[SPE].
However, modifying SPEFSCR does not trap when MSR[SPE]=0.
And since SPEFSCR is already saved/restored in _switch(),
not all the callers want to save SPEFSCR again.
Thus, saving SPEFSCR should not belong to giveup_spe().

This patch moves SPEFSCR saving to flush_spe_to_thread(),
and cleans up the caller that needs to save SPEFSCR accordingly.

arch/powerpc: use printk_ratelimited instead of printk_ratelimit

2011-06-29T05:31:01+00:00

Since printk_ratelimit() shouldn't be used anymore (see comment in
include/linux/printk.h), replace it with printk_ratelimited.

powerpc/e500: fix breakage with fsl_rio_mcheck_exception

2011-06-22T11:15:16+00:00

The wrong MCSR bit was being used on e500mc.  MCSR_BUS_RBERR only exists
on e500v1/v2.  Use MCSR_LD on e500mc, and remove all MCSR checking
in fsl_rio_mcheck_exception as we now no longer call that function
if the appropriate bit in MCSR is not set.

If RIO support was enabled at compile-time, but was never probed, just
return from fsl_rio_mcheck_exception rather than dereference a NULL
pointer.

TODO: There is still a remaining, though comparitively minor, issue in
that this recovery mechanism will falsely engage if there's an unrelated
MCSR_LD event at the same time as a RIO error.

sysfs: remove "last sysfs file:" line from the oops messages

2011-05-13T23:05:51+00:00

On some arches (x86, sh, arm, unicore, powerpc) the oops message would
print out the last sysfs file accessed.

This was very useful in finding a number of sysfs and driver core bugs
in the 2.5 and early 2.6 development days, but it has been a number of
years since this file has actually helped in debugging anything that
couldn't also be trivially determined from the stack traceback.

So it's time to delete the line.  This is good as we need all the space
we can get for oops messages at times on consoles.

powerpc: Convert old cpumask API into new one

2011-05-04T05:22:59+00:00

Adapt new API.

Almost change is trivial. Most important change is the below line
because we plan to change task->cpus_allowed implementation.

-       ctx->cpus_allowed = current->cpus_allowed;
