Oh boy, that sounds bad. Where is a good place to read about this?

Putting the tlbil_va() in the top of set_pte_filter() doesn't work - it
hangs on boot before it even prints any messages to the console.

However, adding tlbil_va() to ptep_set_access_flags() as you suggested
makes everything happy. I need to test it some more, but it looks good
so far. Below is what I am testing now.

thanks!

It's a support file that needs to be linked against every module
(aka libgcc like) and thus needs to be built before any module.

Cheers,

Yes.

My point was that the next version of the changelog should
include this information - as well as kbuild.txt.

Agreed. Proposed interface is ugly.

* Market research for new PowerPC system
From: Konstantinos Margaritis @ 2009-09-26 11:38 UTC (permalink / raw)
  To: linuxppc-dev, debian-powerpc, opensuse-ppc; +Cc: Konstantinos Margaritis

(Sorry for the cross-posting, please ignore if you are not interested  
in this, CC me as I'm not subscribed)
Hi,

First some introductions. I'm Konstantinos Margaritis, a long time  
Amiga/BeOS/Linux user/developer and a PowerPC fan, former Debian  
Developer, also a SIMD/AltiVec fanatic and the author of libfreevec.  
I've posted this on the following sites:

http://amigaworld.net/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?mode=viewtopic&topic_id=29594&forum=33&start=0&viewmode=flat&order=0

http://www.amiga.org/forums/showthread.php?t=49424

http://aros-exec.org/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?viewmode=flat&topic_id=3768&forum=4

http://www.haiku-os.org/community/forum/market_research_new_powerpc_system#comment-12604

To anyone who is not a PowerPC user, it might seem like crazy, but  
here it goes:

I'm considering funding the design & production of a new PowerPC  
system (well, the motherboard, the rest are typical pc stuff and a  
case). No this is not a joke, I've been wanting to do this for a long  
time, and perhaps the chance will be given to me now. But before I  
spend any money on this, I want to do a little market research first.  
I know the market is literally "dying" for a new powerpc motherboard,  
but exactly how many are there that want to buy one?

Ok, let's give some rough specs first. I'm considering 3 choices -not  
in order of probability/importance:

1. MPC8640D-based. It will be dual core at 1Ghz -most likely, higher  
frequencies are much more expensive and the cost of the final board  
would be prohibitive.
2. MPC8610-based. Single core at 1Ghz, slightly less expensive, and  
includes a 2D DIU display unit -quite fast, but no 3D unfortunately.
3. QorIQ P1022-based. Again dual core at 1Ghz (1055Mhz to be precise).  
Apart from the much lower chip price, this one includes dual gigabit  
ethernet, dual SATA, USB 2.0 and a 2D DIU display unit (same as the  
MPC8610). So this one would lower the cost of the board quite much.  
Disadvantages: No AltiVec unit (it sucks I know), though it includes  
an SPE unit which is not that bad, and availability will be in Q3/Q4  
2010, so that's a long wait.

Now, the end motherboard will probably be MicroATX (in the 8640D/8610  
case) or PicoITX (in the P1022 case), and it will definitely include:

* SATA connectors
* USB (possibly 2 back and 2 front, but that's discussable)
* Dual gigabit (at least one will be there, in the case of the  
MPC8640D we might even have 4!!!)
* Sound (of course, SPDIF support will definitely be there)
* 1 PCI-e slot 1x
* 1 PCI-e slot (4x in the P1022 case, 8x in the MPC86xx cases)

Ok, what I want to know is if people would really really buy one of  
these. End price is estimated to be ~around~ 350EUR for the P1022  
board or ~500EUR (definitely more in the case of 8640D) in the case of  
the other boards. Besides being more expensive, the MPC86xx chips,  
don't include SATA, USB and only one of ethernet/sound (quad-gige in  
MPC8640D case, or sound in the case of MPC8610). I know this sounds a  
lot, but it's the reality, there is not enough funding to build  
enormous amounts of units and bring the prices down substantially, we  
have to start low and build up from there. In case you are wondering,  
yes, the boards will be designed/produced by bPlan and funded by my  
company (Codex).

Support for OSes: Linux definitely, Haiku most probably and there is a  
possibility of supporting AmigaOS/MorphOS, which will depend on the  
actual feedback I get from those users.

I would like to make a list of everyone that is really interested in  
such a system, so it would really help me make a decision sooner  
rather than later if you would send me a few personal details to markos@codex.gr 
  with subject "PowerPC board":

* Name
* Country
* email (definitely, I'd have to reach you back!)
* Phone/Skype (optional, please include international prefix)
* Forum you saw this post (ok, Morphzone in this case)
* OS of preference
* board you would be most interested in (MPC8610/MPC8640D/P1022)
* preferred price (please have in mind the estimated price quotes I  
mentioned, it might be lower but that's not very probable)
* Other notes/comments

Also, I found out that I had to state my case on many forums to prove  
that this is not vapourware. Well, it will not be vapourware, if I get  
feedback. So far the feedback I got can be summarized here:

http://www.codex.gr/index.php?pageID=&blogItem=60

Thanks a lot for your time and I hope this system becomes a reality.

* Problem with futex call on 8xx
From: Frank Svendsbøe @ 2009-09-26 12:00 UTC (permalink / raw)
  To: linuxppc-dev

Hi
I'm having a problem with ~100% CPU load on MPC8xx when calling
pthread_cond_wait.
Running strace, I get:

futex(0x10040d5c, FUTEX_WAIT, 1, NULL)  = -1 ENOSYS (Function not implemented)

.. and this call is inifinitely repeating, which explains the high load.

I'm running Linux 2.6.26-rc2 (not newer due to the slowdown problem
introduced by commit
8d30c14cab30d405a05f2aaceda1e9ad57800f36, as pointed out by Rex Feany
this week), and
glibc v2.6 (part of ELDK 4.2).

Is this a problem due to an error in the futex implementation in
glibc, or a kernel problem?

Best regards,
Frank

Hello, here is a fixed version.

Compile and export arch/powerpc/lib/crtsavres.o in order to fix the
"arch/powerpc/lib/crtsavres.o not found" error when "O=" option
is employed for external module compilation.
crtsavres.o is a support file, containing save/restore code from gcc,
simplified down for powerpc architecture needs.
This file needs to be linked against every module and thus to be built
before any module.

* Re: Problem with futex call on 8xx
From: Frank Svendsbøe @ 2009-09-26 12:52 UTC (permalink / raw)
  To: linuxppc-dev; +Cc: Scott Wood, Detlev Zundel
In-Reply-To: <1ba63b520909260500k3b7a0ed1l2d75116053ae5522@mail.gmail.com>

I'll answer myself, since I just found the solution to the problem -
with help from 'kos_tom'
at #uclibc on freenode.

The problem is caused by a missing 'CONFIG_FUTEX=3Dy' in the defconfig
for our target.

The system we're developing is based on the Adder port by Scott Wood, which=
 is
also missing this, so a patch should be committed for this and
possible other 8xx targets
as well.

Best regards,
Frank

Ok, just a short comment. In principle I like diversity, competition, etc. 
And it was somewhat sad when Apple abandoned ppc. But honestly - why 
should I be buying a ppc desktop system? If we restrict our comparison to 
Linux, because that's what I'm using, what advantages would a ppc system 
give me over a comparable in price ix86 system? This is not meant 
negatively, I just have not followed recent ppc CPUs from the "desktop" 
range, so, this is a real honest question. Would such a system provide 
more MIPS per Watt at the same price? Or more periferals? Or some specific 
hardware blocks unavailable or unsupported om ix86?

Thanks

Go for QorIQ P1022, it's the ideal SoC for many applications.

Alternatively, it's predecessor MPC8536E available now, ~same specs,
but higher power.  But not the two you mention please.

Pico P1022 or Pico MPC8536E pls.

and throw PCI Express (x4) in the party!

(hint: I haven't seen an Intel board with Atom and PCI Express yet).

Will the board be open hardware? I.e. an open sourced design?

As you said, PCI Express, *actual* low power and probably higher speed  
-all cpus mention are faster than the Atom at least in relative terms.  
The SoC design means less components on the board, so smaller sizes  
might be achieved.

I know, I like the chip very much, the thing is that it won't be

Why not? I mean seriously, why would you dislike them?

definetely PCI Express for all CPUs anyway.

I don't know yet, to be frank, I haven't thought about it, though I've  
worked with open source software for years, I have no experience  
whatsoever with open source hardware, I don't know the dangers,  
pitfalls, advantages, etc.

Ok, I remember a few years back when we had Alpha, MIPS, x86, SPARC,
PowerPC, etc all viable platforms to use and work on. Now it's only  
x86. I'm sorry,
I just don't like it. I cannot answer your question, no more than I  
can answer why
a car lover buys an old Jaguar antique for the price he could buy a  
new Audi S8
for example. Well, ok the analogy is not exactly the same, but you get  
the point.
If not, well, the ppc board would just lessen the current gap between  
x86/ppc in
favour of the -admittedly very small- ppc desktop/hobbyist market.  
Nevertheless,
I'm pretty sure the system would find itself in many ppc developers'  
desks, just
because they can't really buy something *new* with those specs, at  
this price range.
Ok, perhaps I will fail and just add my name to the list of failed  
hardware projects.
Perhaps not. I really don't know if I can convince you if you don't  
want to be convinced.
Deliver a super ppc system that beats all x86 systems at the same or  
better price? No,
I'm sorry I cannot do that, and I never implied I could. Only IBM/ 
Freescale could do that
and even then the game would not be in their favour.

Ok, fair enough, as I said, that wasn't meant as a pun. I'd really love to 
see non-x86 desktops _successful_ on the market, and I don't mean just 
ARM-based netbooks, nettops, tablets, etc.:-) So, good luck to you, and I 
really mean it! Interestingly, ppc competes on embedded, competes on 
servers, but practically absent on desktops (apart from a couple of 
hackintosh manufacturers:-)), so, maybe indeed there's still something 
that ppc can offer us that x86 cannot - as a self-contained system, and 
not just a development platform for ppc professionals?

Thanks

I'm working on a self-designed, roughly Lite5200B based board, and  
first thought about buying this device.  However, I tried to contact  
their support several times (as to get a confirmation that it will work  
with our flash and board-specific design), but never got a reply.  So  
we ended up with the Abatron BDI3000, which is rather expensive, but  
works really flawlessly, and Abatron's (and their German distributor's)  
support is just *excellent* (fast and professional).

U-Boot 2009.03 together with ELDK 4.2 work flawlessly on both the  
Lite5200B and on our design.

I can only confirm that the stock (from kernel.org) kernels run  
flawlessly on our boards (the latest I tried was 2.6.30.3, though, but  
I don't expect any issues with 2.6.31.1).

Hope this helps,

8xx, is getting very hacky and I suspect that the only long term fix is
add code to trap the cache instructions in TLB error/miss and fixup the
exception in page fault handler. This will also have the added benefit on being able
to use the cache instructions in both kernel and user space like any other
ppc arch.

First I'd like to understand exactly what's happening today, since
it makes little sense :-) I suppose I'll have to get myself some
8xx doco and understand how the bloody MMU works.

Then, I saw your old patch and it's -very- invasive. If we can get away
with a one liner just adding tlbil_va in the right place, I think I'm
happy to stick with it until somebody comes up with a real good reason
to do more :-) 8xx is on life support and has been around for long
enough without people feeling the need overall to work around that
problem so I'm tempted to keep the status-quo here.

Cheers,
Ben

* [0/5] Assorted hugepage cleanups (v3)
From: David Gibson @ 2009-09-28  4:39 UTC (permalink / raw)
  To: linuxppc-dev, Benjamin Herrenschmidt

Currently, ordinary pages use one pagetable layout, and each different
hugepage size uses a slightly different variant layout.  A number of
places which need to walk the pagetable must first check the slice map
to see what the pagetable layout then handle the various different
forms.  New hardware, like Book3E is liable to introduce more possible
variants.

This patch series, therefore, is designed to simplify the matter by
limiting knowledge of the pagetable layout to only the allocation
path.  With this patch, ordinary pages are handled as ever, with a
fixed 4 (or 3) level tree.  All other variants branch off from some
layer of that with a specially marked PGD/PUD/PMD pointer which also
contains enough information to interpret the directories below that
point.  This means that things walking the pagetables (without
allocating) don't need to look up the slice map, they can just step
down the tree in the usual way, branching off to the "non-standard
layout" path for hugepages, which uses the embdded information to
interpret the tree from that point on.

This reduces the source size in a number of places, and means that
newer variants on the pagetable layout to handle new hardware and new
features will need to alter the existing code in less places.

In addition we split out the hash / classic MMU specific code into a
separate hugetlbpage-hash64.c file.  This will make adding support for
other MMUs (like 440 and/or Book3E) easier.

I've used the libhugetlbfs testsuite to test these patches on a
Power5+ machine, but they could certainly do with more testing. In
particular, I don't have any suitable hardware to test 16G pages.

V2: Made the tweaks that BenH suggested to patch 2 of the original
series.  Some corresponding tweaks in patch 3 to match.

V3: Fix several small bugs.
	* We had a BUILD_BUG_ON() which is broken by the recent
problems with BUILD_BUG_ON().  Since it's not a hot path, use a
runtime BUG_ON() instead.

	* The ifdef logic was inverted for the test against
CONFIG_SPU_FS_64K_LS.

	* That in turn masked a compile bug (using a non-existent
constant) in the CONFIG_SPU_FS_64K_LS path.

* [2/5] Cleanup management of kmem_caches for pagetables
From: David Gibson @ 2009-09-28  4:41 UTC (permalink / raw)
  To: Benjamin Herrenschmidt, linuxppc-dev
In-Reply-To: <20090928043902.GA6302@yookeroo.seuss>

Currently we have a fair bit of rather fiddly code to manage the
various kmem_caches used to store page tables of various levels.  We
generally have two caches holding some combination of PGD, PUD and PMD
tables, plus several more for the special hugepage pagetables.

This patch cleans this all up by taking a different approach.  Rather
than the caches being designated as for PUDs or for hugeptes for 16M
pages, the caches are simply allocated to be a specific size.  Thus
sharing of caches between different types/levels of pagetables happens
naturally.  The pagetable size, where needed, is passed around encoded
in the same way as {PGD,PUD,PMD}_INDEX_SIZE; that is n where the
pagetable contains 2^n pointers.

* [1/5] Make hpte_need_flush() correctly mask for multiple page sizes
From: David Gibson @ 2009-09-28  4:41 UTC (permalink / raw)
  To: Benjamin Herrenschmidt, linuxppc-dev
In-Reply-To: <20090928043902.GA6302@yookeroo.seuss>

Currently, hpte_need_flush() only correctly flushes the given address
for normal pages.  Callers for hugepages are required to mask the
address themselves.

But hpte_need_flush() already looks up the page sizes for its own
reasons, so this is a rather silly imposition on the callers.  This
patch alters it to mask based on the pagesize it has looked up itself,
and removes the awkward masking code in the hugepage caller.

* [3/5] Allow more flexible layouts for hugepage pagetables
From: David Gibson @ 2009-09-28  4:41 UTC (permalink / raw)
  To: Benjamin Herrenschmidt, linuxppc-dev
In-Reply-To: <20090928043902.GA6302@yookeroo.seuss>

Currently each available hugepage size uses a slightly different
pagetable layout: that is, the bottem level table of pointers to
hugepages is a different size, and may branch off from the normal page
tables at a different level.  Every hugepage aware path that needs to
walk the pagetables must therefore look up the hugepage size from the
slice info first, and work out the correct way to walk the pagetables
accordingly.  Future hardware is likely to add more possible hugepage
sizes, more layout options and more mess.

This patch, therefore reworks the handling of hugepage pagetables to
reduce this complexity.  In the new scheme, instead of having to
consult the slice mask, pagetable walking code can check a flag in the
PGD/PUD/PMD entries to see where to branch off to hugepage pagetables,
and the entry also contains the information (eseentially hugepage
shift) necessary to then interpret that table without recourse to the
slice mask.  This scheme can be extended neatly to handle multiple
levels of self-describing "special" hugepage pagetables, although for
now we assume only one level exists.

This approach means that only the pagetable allocation path needs to
know how the pagetables should be set out.  All other (hugepage)
pagetable walking paths can just interpret the structure as they go.

There already was a flag bit in PGD/PUD/PMD entries for hugepage
directory pointers, but it was only used for debug.  We alter that
flag bit to instead be a 0 in the MSB to indicate a hugepage pagetable
pointer (normally it would be 1 since the pointer lies in the linear
mapping).  This means that asm pagetable walking can test for (and
punt on) hugepage pointers with the same test that checks for
unpopulated page directory entries (beq becomes bge), since hugepage
pointers will always be positive, and normal pointers always negative.

While we're at it, we get rid of the confusing (and grep defeating)
#defining of hugepte_shift to be the same thing as mmu_huge_psizes.

* [4/5] Cleanup initialization of hugepages on powerpc
From: David Gibson @ 2009-09-28  4:41 UTC (permalink / raw)
  To: Benjamin Herrenschmidt, linuxppc-dev
In-Reply-To: <20090928043902.GA6302@yookeroo.seuss>

This patch simplifies the logic used to initialize hugepages on
powerpc.  The somewhat oddly named set_huge_psize() is renamed to
add_huge_page_size() and now does all necessary verification of
whether it's given a valid hugepage sizes (instead of just some) and
instantiates the generic hstate structure (but no more).  

hugetlbpage_init() now steps through the available pagesizes, checks
if they're valid for hugepages by calling add_huge_page_size() and
initializes the kmem_caches for the hugepage pagetables.  This means
we can now eliminate the mmu_huge_psizes array, since we no longer
need to pass the sizing information for the pagetable caches from
set_huge_psize() into hugetlbpage_init()

* [5/5] Split hash MMU specific hugepage code into a new file
From: David Gibson @ 2009-09-28  4:41 UTC (permalink / raw)
  To: Benjamin Herrenschmidt, linuxppc-dev
In-Reply-To: <20090928043902.GA6302@yookeroo.seuss>

This patch separates the parts of hugetlbpage.c which are inherently
specific to the hash MMU into a new hugelbpage-hash64.c file.
