[POWERPC] Fix G5 DART (IOMMU) race causing occasional data corruption

2006-09-13T12:12:52+00:00

It seems that the occasional data corruption observed with the tg3
driver wasn't due to missing barriers after all, but rather seems to
be due to the DART (= IOMMU) in the U4 northbridge reading stale
IOMMU table entries from memory due to a race.  This fixes it by
making the CPU read the entry back from memory before using it.

[POWERPC] Support for "weird" MPICs and fixup mpc7448_hpc2

2006-08-30T04:29:42+00:00

This adds a new hardware information table for mpic. This enables
the mpic code to deal with mpic controllers with different register
layouts and hardware behaviours.

This introduces CONFIG_MPIC_WEIRD.  For boards with non standard mpic
controllers, select CONFIG_MPIC_WEIRD and add its hardware information
in the mpic_infos[] array.

TSI108/109 PIC takes the first index of weird hardware information
table.  :)  The table can be extended. The Tsi108/109 PIC looks like
standard OpenPIC but, in fact, is different in register mapping and
behavior.

The patch does not affect the behavior of standard mpic.  If
CONFIG_MPIC_WEIRD is not defined, the code is essentially identical to
the current code.

[benh@kernel.crashing.org:
This patch is a slightly cleaned up version of Zang Roy's support for
the TSI108 MPIC variant. It also fixes up MPC7448_hpc2 to use the new
version of the type macros and changes the way MPIC is selected in
Kconfig to better match what is done for other system devices.

[POWERPC] Adapt ipic driver to new host_ops interface, add set_irq_type to set IRQ sense

2006-08-30T00:34:33+00:00

This converts ipic code to Benh's IRQ mods.  For the IPIC, IRQ sense values in the device tree equal those in include/linux/irq.h; that's 8 for low assertion (most internal IRQs on mpc83xx), and 2 for high-to-low change.

spinlocks added to [un]mask, ack operations; default handler and type now set in host_map; and redundant condition check eliminated.

[POWERPC] Convert to mac-address for ethernet MAC address data.

2006-08-17T23:50:16+00:00

Also accept "local-mac-address".  However the old "address"

It should be removed after all device trees have been
converted to use "mac-address".

[PATCH] powerpc: fix MPIC OF tree parsing on Apple quad g5

2006-07-10T20:24:20+00:00

The quad g5 currently doesn't boot due to two problems.  This patch fixes the
first one: Apple new way of doing interrupt specifiers in OF for devices using
the HT APIC isn't properly parsed by the new MPIC driver code.

[PATCH] powerpc: fix trigger handling in the new irq code

2006-07-10T20:24:20+00:00

This patch slightly reworks the new irq code to fix a small design error.  I
removed the passing of the trigger to the map() calls entirely, it was not a
good idea to have one call do two different things.  It also fixes a couple of
corner cases.

Mapping a linux virtual irq to a physical irq now does only that.  Setting the
trigger is a different action which has a different call.

The main changes are:

- I no longer call host->ops->map() for an already mapped irq, I just return
  the virtual number that was already mapped.  It was called before to give an
  opportunity to change the trigger, but that was causing issues as that could
  happen while the interrupt was in use by a device, and because of the
  trigger change, map would potentially muck around with things in a racy way.
   That was causing much burden on a given's controller implementation of
  map() to get it right.  This is much simpler now.  map() is only called on
  the initial mapping of an irq, meaning that you know that this irq is _not_
  being used.  You can initialize the hardware if you want (though you don't
  have to).

- Controllers that can handle different type of triggers (level/edge/etc...)
  now implement the standard irq_chip->set_type() call as defined by the
  generic code.  That means that you can use the standard set_irq_type() to
  configure an irq line manually if you wish or (though I don't like that
  interface), pass explicit trigger flags to request_irq() as defined by the
  generic kernel interfaces.  Also, using those interfaces guarantees that
  your controller set_type callback is called with the descriptor lock held,
  thus providing locking against activity on the same interrupt (including
  mask/unmask/etc...) automatically.  A result is that, for example, MPIC's
  own map() implementation calls irq_set_type(NONE) to configure the hardware
  to the default triggers.

- To allow the above, the irq_map array entry for the new mapped interrupt
  is now set before map() callback is called for the controller.

- The irq_create_of_mapping() (also used by irq_of_parse_and_map()) function
  for mapping interrupts from the device-tree now also call the separate
  set_irq_type(), and only does so if there is a change in the trigger type.

- While I was at it, I changed pci_read_irq_line() (which is the helper I
  would expect most archs to use in their pcibios_fixup() to get the PCI
  interrupt routing from the device tree) to also handle a fallback when the
  DT mapping fails consisting of reading the PCI_INTERRUPT_PIN to know wether
  the device has an interrupt at all, and the the PCI_INTERRUPT_LINE to get an
  interrupt number from the device.  That number is then mapped using the
  default controller, and the trigger is set to level low.  That default
  behaviour works for several platforms that don't have a proper interrupt
  tree like Pegasos.  If it doesn't work for your platform, then either
  provide a proper interrupt tree from the firmware so that fallback isn't
  needed, or don't call pci_read_irq_line()

- Add back a bit that got dropped by my main rework patch for properly
  clearing pending IPIs on pSeries when using a kexec

[PATCH] powerpc: Fix loss of interrupts with MPIC

2006-07-05T16:29:43+00:00

With the new interrupt rework, an interrupt "host" map() callback can be
called after the interrupt is already active.

It's called again for an already mapped interrupt to allow changing the
trigger setup, and currently this is not guarded with a test of wether
the interrupt is requested or not.

I plan to change some of this logic to be a bit less lenient against
random reconfiguring of live interrupts but just not yet.

The ported MPIC driver has a bug where when that happens, it will mask
the interrupt.  This changes it to preserve the previous masking of the
interrupt instead.
