2008-03-03[POWERPC] Convert the cell IOMMU fixed mapping to 16M IOMMU pagesMichael Ellerman
The only tricky part is we need to adjust the PTE insertion loop to cater for holes in the page table. The PTEs for each segment start on a 4K boundary, so with 16M pages we have 16 PTEs per segment and then a gap to the next 4K page boundary. It might be possible to allocate the PTEs for each segment separately, saving the memory currently filling the gaps. However we'd need to check that's OK with the hardware, and that it actually saves memory. Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <michael@ellerman.id.au> Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>
2008-03-03[POWERPC] Allow for different IOMMU page sizes in cell IOMMU codeMichael Ellerman
Make some preliminary changes to cell_iommu_alloc_ptab() to allow it to take the page size as a parameter rather than assuming IOMMU_PAGE_SIZE. Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <michael@ellerman.id.au> Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>
2008-03-03[POWERPC] Cell IOMMU: n_pte_pages is in 4K page units, not IOMMU_PAGE_SIZEMichael Ellerman
We use n_pte_pages to calculate the stride through the page tables, but we also use it to set the NPPT value in the segment table entry. That is defined as the number of 4K pages per segment, so we should calculate it as such regardless of the IOMMU page size.

2008-03-03[POWERPC] Split setup of IOMMU stab and ptab, allocate dynamic/fixed ptabs ↵Michael Ellerman
separately Currently the cell IOMMU code allocates the entire IOMMU page table in a contiguous chunk. This is nice and tidy, but for machines with larger amounts of RAM the page table allocation can fail due to it simply being too large. So split the segment table and page table setup routine, and arrange to have the dynamic and fixed page tables allocated separately.

2008-03-03[POWERPC] Use it_offset not pte_offset in cell IOMMU codeMichael Ellerman
The cell IOMMU tce build and free routines use pte_offset to convert the index passed from the generic IOMMU code into a page table offset. This takes into account the SPIDER_DMA_OFFSET which sets the top bit of every DMA address. However it doesn't cater for the IOMMU window starting at a non-zero address, as the base of the window is not incorporated into pte_offset at all. As it turns out tbl->it_offset already contains the value we need, it takes into account the base of the window and also pte_offset. So use it instead!

2008-02-29x86: CPA: avoid split of alias mappingsThomas Gleixner
avoid over-eager large page splitup. When the target area needs to be split or is split already (ioremap) then the current code enforces the split of large mappings in the alias regions even if we could avoid it. Use a separate variable processed in the cpa_data structure to carry the number of pages which have been processed instead of reusing the numpages variable. This keeps numpages intact and gives the alias code a chance to keep large mappings intact. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

But that solution too is locale-dependent and may not always match the identifiers it needs to. The better fix is just to run sed et al with a fixed locale setting in all builds.

2008-02-29[POWERPC] spufs: serialize SLB invalidation against SLB loadingArnd Bergmann
There is a potential race between flushes of the entire SLB in the MFC and the point where new entries are being established. The problem is that we might put a ESID entry into the MFC SLB when the VSID entry has just been cleared by the global flush. This can be circumvented by holding the register_lock throughout both the flushing and the creation of SLB entries.

2008-02-29[POWERPC] spufs: invalidate SLB translation before adding a new entryArnd Bergmann
When we replace an SLB entry in the MFC after using up all the available entries, there is a short window in which an incorrect entry is marked as valid. The problem is that the 'valid' bit is stored in the ESID, which is always written after the VSID. Overwriting the VSID first will make the original ESID entry point to the new VSID, which means that any concurrent DMA accessing the old ESID ends up being redirected to the new virtual address. A few cycles later, we write the new ESID and everything is fine again. That race can be closed by writing a zero entry to the ESID first, which makes sure that the VSID is not accessed until we write the new ESID. Note that we don't actually need to invalidate the SLB entry using the invalidation register, which would also flush any ERAT entries for that segment, because the segment translation does not become invalid but is only removed from the SLB cache.

2008-02-29[POWERPC] spufs: synchronize IRQ when disablingArnd Bergmann
There is a small race between the context save procedure and the SPU interrupt handling, where we expect all interrupt processing to have finished after disabling them, while an interrupt is still being processed on another CPU. The obvious fix is to call synchronize_irq() after disabling the interrupts at the start of the context save procedure to make sure we never access the SPU any more during an ongoing save or even after that.

2008-02-27avr32: Fix OCD refcounting bugHaavard Skinnemoen
Iff the parent has TIF_DEBUG set, _and_ clone_flags includes CLONE_PTRACE we should set the TIF_DEBUG flag for the child and increment the ocd refcount. Otherwise, the TIF_DEBUG flag must be unset. Currently, the child inherits TIF_DEBUG from the parent before copy_thread is called, so TIF_DEBUG may be already be set before we determine whether the child is supposed to inherit debugging capabilities from the parent or not. This means that ocd_enable() won't increment the refcount, because TIF_DEBUG is already set, and that TIF_DEBUG will be set for processes that aren't being debugged. This leads to a refcounting asymmetry, which may show up as ------------[ cut here ]------------ Badness at arch/avr32/kernel/ocd.c:73 PC is at ocd_disable+0x34/0x60 LR is at put_lock_stats+0xa/0x20 as reported by David Brownell.

2008-02-27[POWERPC] spufs: fix context destruction during psmap faultJeremy Kerr
We have a small window where a spu context may be destroyed while we're servicing a page fault (from another thread) to the context's problem state mapping. After we up_read() the mmap_sem, it's possible that the context is destroyed by its owning thread, and so the later references to ctx are invalid. This can maifest as a deadlock on the (now free()-ed) context state mutex. This change adds a reference to the context before we release the mmap_sem, so that the context cannot be destroyed.
