vger-2.3.15 on pmac

vger-2.3.15 on pmac

[Martin Costabel]

Thanks to the efforts of Paul M. and Cort, the 2.3.15 kernel from
cvs.on.openprojects is now compiling on a Pmac (first time after 2.3.6,
2 months ago).

I propose 2 patches: The first one is an obvious correction in the
valkyriefb driver, and the second one allows to configure support for
Apple partition maps without going to the section of exotic partitions.
It is obvious, too.

In a second post, I'll have some questions about things that don't yet
work. I hope this is the right forum for this. I didn't see many
discussions on kernel development for the PPC like on the linux-kernel
list.

I just checked in the first one (+ a similar fix to chipsfb) at vger, and sent
a patch to Linus.

You'll probably talking about the problems with adbmouse. I have a patch 
for this one. I have also a fixed version of my Xpmac-style 3-mousebutton 
emulation with the "buttons locked before 1st use" problem. I'll forward 
this stuff to Paul later today when I'm home.

What's still NOT fixed in 2.3.15 and really annoying for a lot of users is 
"FB. overflow" aka "macserial: flipbuffer overflow". This was introduced 
somewhere late 2.1 or early 2.2. I think this one is responsible for some 
of the hard crashes reported on linuxppc-users under the "Communicator 
crashes X" thread.

Another problem probably worth a look is the near to zero serial/PPP 
performance during heavy disk activity. One could argue this is a problem 
with my slow 7200/75, but I don't have similar problems under MacOS...

Franz.

Yes, this problem is fixed now.

For Paul, this patch does:
- fixes 2.3.15 compilation issues vs. CONFIG_MOUSE/CONFIG_BUSMOUSE
- convert adb_mouse_setup to new style (compiles, but not tested yet)
- added 2nd Xpmac style mouse button emulation mode:
	adb_buttons=1,x,y: exactly like the old version, one key == one button
	adb_buttons=2,x,y: Xpmac style, one key + mouse click == one button

BTW, Paul, is there any chance we can go back to USB keycodes before 2.4? This
seems a lot more logical in the longterm.

Franz.

Thanks, Franz!

Everything is working. I am writing this now from 2.3.15 on my Performa
6400.

For drivers/macintosh/mac_keyb.c, I applied also BenH's patches that are
in the 2.2 branch on vger, but not yet in the main branch. For me, this
has the effect that the keyboard gets put on handler 3 instead of 5, so
that in raw mode it produces different keycodes for the right modifier
keys, and I can therefore use adb_buttons=2,58,124 to get
button2=Opt_L+click, button3=Opt_R+click, like in Xpmac.

What is still not working are the LEDs and the ScrollLock and NumLock
keys. But this is a different story that started way back before 2.3.x
and is not very important.

Little postscriptum: When I hit the "Send" button for my previous
message, everything froze. Couldn't kill X, nothing. After a while, the
system rebooted on its own. And the message got sent, it seems. Now I'll
press this "Send" button again...

I'm not sure my patches are still needed. The last time I synced with
Paul's tree, the handler ID bug was fixed, but I didn't check vger yet.

I don't know if it is related, but I had several other hard freezes in
the
meantime. One reproducible method is to run xdir (or gftp, works too),
connect to a remote site, wait until the connection is established,
choose "quit" from the menu, confirm, and boom! hard freeze. If I don't
connect to a remote site, there is no freeze. I don't know how to debug
this, because I don't see any error messages.

The other kernel panics arrived at the end of the boot process or during
login. The message was "kernel stack overflow, in swapper task, not
syncing", many lines of "page fault in interrupt handler, addr=c". The
kernel addresses given were all init_task_union + offset.

Another strange thing, or maybe it is related, are error messages in my
/var/log/dhcpd.log file:

Aug 27 12:04:42 rennes-28 dhcpcd[185]: corrupted UDP msg with
uh_ulen=312 in_cksum=-2 discarded 
Aug 27 12:05:37 rennes-28 last message repeated 16 times
Aug 27 12:06:28 rennes-28 last message repeated 3 times

Such messages appear irregularly, about every 10 minutes. There is no
clear relation with the dialog with my dhcp server. Otherwise the net
traffic over ethrnet/adsl/dhcp seems to work correctly.
 
This happens only with 2.3.15, not with 2.2.12. In the log file I find
that I had such messages also between June 3 and June 13. I think these
were the times when I tried 2.3.x kernels.

I saw the `page fault in interrupt handler, addr=c' too (first call `addr=0'),
until I found out that strcmp() was passed a NULL pointer in
fs/proc/proc_devtree.c. I have no idea why it didn't happen before.

vger-2.3.15 and ADB_MOUSE

[Martin Costabel]

Trying to make the vger kernel 2.3.15 work on my Pmac 6400, I found how
to make my screen work and how to make the kernel read the partition map
on my HDs (see my previous post). So now it boots.

It does not, however, start a driver for my adb-mouse. Therefore gpm and
also X don't work. Does anyone know if this is a configuration problem
or is it known that the adbmouse driver is still broken in 2.3.15?

I had to patch drivers/char/Makefile in order to compile
drivers/char/busmouse. otherwise there were undefined symbols (see patch
below).

The other thing I can see is seriously broken is hfs. But there I guess
we'll have to wait until Adrian Sun finishes his thesis :-) Anyway, I
was pleasantly surprised to see that hfsutils work without hfs support
compiled into the kernel. So I was able to hcopy -r vmlinux to my MacOS
system folder and reboot with BootX without first passing by an older
kernel.
