The issue I was pondering is whether to include "governor" in the name, for
we do not do this for the other governors. So here are my suggestions :)

* [1/3] powerpc: add _HEAD_GLOBAL to place functions in .text.head
From: Milton Miller @ 2008-07-10 21:14 UTC (permalink / raw)
To: Benjamin Herrenschmidt; +Cc: linuxppc-dev
In-Reply-To: <for-27-patch1-0@bga.com>
This is the first step to moving the interrupt vectors to .text.head.
Rather than creating more repetition, factor out creating a function
descriptor, from declaring it to be global in a section.
The order of .globl and the symbol definitions is changed but is
a don't care.

I left the section in the macros, and added a new macro. I didn't
want to hunt down other uses of _GLOBAL to audit the section, and _KPROBE
needs to set the section.

* mtd: remove __PPC__ hardcoded address from nand/diskonchip and devices/docprobe
From: Milton Miller @ 2008-07-10 21:14 UTC (permalink / raw)
To: David Woodhouse, linux-mtd; +Cc: linuxppc-dev, linux-kernel
In-Reply-To: <for-27-patch1-0@bga.com>
Such a hardcoded address can cause a checkstop or machine check if
the driver is in the kernel but the address is not acknowledged.
Both drivers allow an address to be specified as either a module
parameter or config option. Any future powerpc board should either
use one of these methods or find the address in the device tree.

* [RFC] (almost) booting allyesconfig -- please don't poke super-io without request_region
From: Milton Miller @ 2008-07-10 21:12 UTC (permalink / raw)
To: linux-kernel, lm-sensors; +Cc: linuxppc-dev, Samuel Ortiz
After the following patch to mark the isa region busy and applying a few
patches[1], I was able to kexec boot into an all-yes-config kernel from
linux-next, with the following KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG file:
# CONFIG_KALLSYMS_EXTRA_PASS is not set
# CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP is not set
CONFIG_PPC_EARLY_DEBUG_RTAS_CONSOLE=y
# CONFIG_NSC_FIR is not set
# CONFIG_SMC_IRCC_FIR is not set
# CONFIG_ALI_FIR is not set
# CONFIG_TCG_NSC is not set
# CONFIG_TCG_ATMEL is not set
# CONFIG_SENSORS_F71805F is not set
# CONFIG_SENSORS_F71882FG is not set
# CONFIG_SENSORS_F75375S is not set

# CONFIG_SENSORS_VT1211 is not set
# CONFIG_SENSORS_W83627HF is not set
# CONFIG_SENSORS_W83627EHF is not set
While the first two might not be required, and the third is just
selecting the right platform, it would be nice to get the drivers
to play as well as the rest of the kernel.
The drivers all are for super-io chips, either irda/FIR drivers or hwmon,
and poke at isa ports without checking request_region.
It would be great if these 17 super-io drivers would check for resource
availability before poking at io ports.

The "casual" user shouldn't need to make any changes, especially for the
kernel's own dts files to work with the kernel's own wrapper.
The decision on whether to put the chosen node in the device tree should
be based on which version of u-boot it's more important to maintain
compatibility with (for some platforms, no chosen-duplicating version of
u-boot supported device trees on the platform), and what the
consequences of each form of incompatibility are (e.g. no console output
during the bootwrapper, versus no boot arguments or initrd in the kernel).

Also note that nothing stops the causal kernel booter
from _starting_ with an arch/powerpc/boot/dts/ file,
adding a node to it, and using _that_.

Do you have a better suggestion for the name? I don't think there was a

No (except 86xx, which doesn't have cuboot, because it never existed in
arch/ppc and thus there's no compatibility to maintain), it just means
that chosen was never added to those dts files, and thus cuboot has no
console output.

The mpc7448hpc2 board doesn't have an alias block like
most of the other modern eval boards have. We need this
block in order to have u-boot be able to make use of the
CONFIG_OF_STDOUT_VIA_ALIAS (vs. having a hard coded node)
in the future.
Also remove the old, redundant chosen node. Of all the modern
Freescale eval boards (incl. 83xx, 85xx, 86xx) this is the only
one which still has it. Its presence also breaks with some older
versions of u-boot, like 1.3.1 -- which try and insert a
second chosen node.

Review comments were incorporated to improve the driver.
1. Some data was eliminated that was not needed.
2. Renaming of variables for clarity.
3. Removed unneeded type casting.
4. Changed to use dev_err rather than other I/O.
5. Merged together some functions.
6. Added kerneldoc format to functions.

Since I haven't heard back from Ben [1] on ide-pmac/media-bay IRQ issue
I took another look at ide-pmac patches and I think that it should be
possible to rework them in such way that consecutive ide patches (> 100)
won't depend on "ide-pmac: media-bay support fixes (take 4)" patch.
This would allow us to re-schedule it to 2.6.28 (which is probably what
we want because 2.6.26 is probably just around the corner and we will be
pretty busy with 2.6.27 merge window soon). Ben, what's your opinion?
[1] which doesn't surprise me given his new responsibilities ;)
Thanks,
Bart

You only use phys_addr / remap_size once - just use r_mem directly instead.

Actually, "cpufreq-set -g spu_governor" should be enough. (BTW, do we really

* Making __copy_tofrom_user more readable for powerpc (arch/powerpc/lib/copy_32.S)
From: prodyut hazarika @ 2008-07-10 18:06 UTC (permalink / raw)
To: linuxppc-dev
Hi all,
I am trying to optimize the __copy_tofrom_user function for PPC4xx,
and I would want to know why the exception handling code has been made
so complicated. All the fixup code should do is to store the number of
bytes that failed in copy in r3 and return back.
The current code tries to copy one byte at a time after read fault. I
don't understand why that is necessary. It then clears out the
destination. All these logic has made the code very unfriendly to
read.
I have a version which just keeps a count of bytes copied till any
fault happened. Then for any exception, I just substract this value
from the total number of bytes to be copied, and store in r3 and
return back. This is the common fixup code for all paths. It makes the
code much more readable like other architectures (eg. x86).
My questions are:
1) Why do we need to distinguish between load and store failure? If
either load or store fails, the copy did not go thru. But the code
sets r9 to 0 for load failure, and r9 to 1 for write failure. Why do
we need to care for that?
2) For read failure, why do we clear out the destination? Other
architecture don't do that.
I would appreciate any comments. I will submit my patch later.
Thanks,
Prodyut

It depends on what platform you want to look at, powerpc64, powerpc32 classic
and powerpc32 book E are very different, but you'll see that in the code.
arch/powerpc/mm/hash*
arch/powerpc/mm/pgtable*
arch/powerpc/mm/mem.c
arch/powerpc/mm/ppc_mmu_32.c
arch/powerpc/mm/slb*
arch/powerpc/mm/stab.c
arch/powerpc/mm/tlb*
include/asm-powerpc/mmu*
include/asm-powerpc/pgalloc*
include/asm-powerpc/pgtable*
That should cover all you need to know.

In addition to what John wrote, I would also investigate your ramdisk.
I would be sure to check that you have the permissions/owner set correctly
on bin/busybox. Also, I would double check that, if you compiled busybox
with shared libraries, the shared libraries are in the right place
on your ramdisk.

* [PATCH] powerpc: Xilinx: PS2: driver updates based on review
From: John Linn @ 2008-07-10 15:40 UTC (permalink / raw)
To: linuxppc-dev, linux-input; +Cc: dmitry.torokhov, Sadanand, John Linn
Review comments were incorporated to improve the driver.
1. Some data was eliminated that was not needed.
2. Renaming of variables for clarity.
3. Removed unneeded type casting.
4. Changed to use dev_err rather than other I/O.
5. Merged together some functions.
6. Added kerneldoc format to functions.

Are you *sure* you can see all 4GB? I thought we lost some of the 32-
bit PCI address space for PCI IO...... Disclaimer: I'm no expert on
PCI :)
FYI, I'm *very* close to having swiotlb fully functional on powerpc to
support larger RAM - I am able to boot with 6GB on 8641 right now.
There are some bugs that I'm still shaking out - I hope to push this
out in the next couple of weeks.
Cheers,

Thanks for the bug report. I'll take a look.

That doesn't really answer my question, why you need this.

Good, could someone please ack whether the powerpc changes are acceptable?

Why?
