Unlikely. The ADT7460 can run at I2C clock rates up to 400 kHz while
the Keywest I2C runs at 25, 50 or 100 kHz if I read the code properly.
I don't know what exact speed is used on Tim's system, apparently it is
read from the hardware in the device tree directly?

We could have low_i2c.c log the I2C clock frequency and/or try to force
the lowest speed (25 kHz) and see if it helps, but I very much doubt
it. And I'd rather wait for Tim to report the result with my last patch
first.

* kernel oops issue in localbus driver
From: Fathi Boudra @ 2009-10-15 13:36 UTC (permalink / raw)
  To: linuxppc-dev; +Cc: linuxppc-embedded

Hi,

I have a FPGA connected to a MPC8347 through localbus.

The following kernel oops occurs sometimes:

It seems there's an issue in the localbus driver (lbp_memcpy32_fromio
is a wrapper function for the localbus memory access):

ssize_t lbp_memcpy_fromio(void *dest, void *source, __u32 count32)
{
	/* attempt to acquire the semaphore */
	down(&sem_lb);
	/* critical region */
	mb();
	memcpy_fromio(dest, source, count32 * 4);
	mb();
	/* release the given semaphore */
	up(&sem_lb);
}

Aren't we supposed to use down_interruptible() instead ?
I didn't write the driver and would like to fix it.
Any hints will be appreciated.

cheers,

Fathi

Thanks for suggestion.

I have CONFIG_NO_HZ defined, but disabling it doesn't help.

I wonder which is more confusing for the user:

2. Having only one dts for his board, but Ethernet doesn't work.

Thank you Paul,

The kernel from the BSP on Freescale site is crashing on the CAN in my case=
 (might be a hardware bug).
I could not find the source for the kernel in the BSP or on the freescale s=
ite.

I am now in the progress of cloning the linux-mpc512x git from denx and bui=

Hopefully that will help me.

In my opinion the best place is the BSP available on the MPC5121e page 
on the Freescale site.

I actually use the kernel in the git repository here which is similar to 
the BSP:
http://git.denx.de/?p=linux-2.6-denx.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/ltib-mpc5121ads-20090602 
or here:

I have found both to be very stable, also with the CAN and USB.

No but maybe we are a bit on the "limit" of the device and some

There is a difference between console and tty, if the console call does not 
return, it might bring the full system to a stop. (if its the preferred console, 
init will stop)

Yep. I think it really depends on the backend if looping will result in any 
progress or not. My experience wth hvc_console is, that its quite hard to get 
changes tested on all backends. (e.g. XEN, pseries, iseries, virtio_console, 
s390_iucv...), so even if this change turns out to be correct, it should 
probably sit in linux-next for a while. In additon I really dont oversee, what 
backends wil break due to this patch.

The fact that struct console->write returns void indicates that the console 
layer is not interested in errors. We have two policies we can implement:

1. drop console messages if case of congestion but keep the system going
2. dont drop messages and wait, even if the system might come to a complete stop 

Looking at drivers/char/vt.c 
        /* console busy or not yet initialized */
        if (!printable)
                return;
        if (!spin_trylock(&printing_lock))
                return;
could mean that  Linux consoles should not block.

Maybe its time to ask some of the elder magicians (CCing Alan Cox and linux-
kernel) about blocking and error handling in console code.

Oh. Well, if that was the case, we would see errors all the time, not

* Instable kernel  (2.6.29 or 2.6.31) on MPC8548 with 2 GByte RAM
From: willy jacobs @ 2009-10-15 10:13 UTC (permalink / raw)
  To: Linuxppc-dev

On our MPC8548 (latest die revision) based boards with 2 GByte DDR2 RAM we see an stable kernel when

CONFIG_HIGHMEM is not set

In this case only the first 768 MB will be used (as reported by /proc/cpuinfo).
Tested with/without the RT-patches for 2.6.29.6(-rt23) and 2.6.31.2(-rt13) kernels.

With CONFIG_HIGHMEM=y (2048 MB reported) we see (under "heavy" load conditions) regulary page
errors like this (with/without RT patches):

Hi Felix,

do you have CONFIG_NO_HZ defined ?

I've seen similar problems with powerpc + CONFIG_NO_HZ. In my case the low-level
do_write_buffer (cfi_cmdset_0002.c) timed out too early. See
http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/9/3/84

Maybe in your case it's the do_erase_chip timing out too early.

* [PATCH 6/8] 8xx: Restore _PAGE_WRITETHRU
From: Joakim Tjernlund @ 2009-10-15  9:04 UTC (permalink / raw)
  To: Scott Wood, Rex Feany, Benjamin Herrenschmidt,
	linuxppc-dev@ozlabs.org
In-Reply-To: <1255597466-30976-6-git-send-email-Joakim.Tjernlund@transmode.se>

8xx has not had WRITETHRU due to lack of bits in the pte.
After the recent rewrite of the 8xx TLB code, there are
two bits left. Use one of them to WRITETHRU.

Perhaps use the last SW bit to PAGE_SPECIAL or PAGE_FILE?

* [PATCH 5/8] 8xx: Add missing Guarded setting in DTLB Error.

only DTLB Miss did set this bit, DTLB Error needs too otherwise
the setting is lost when the page becomes dirty.

* [PATCH 8/8] 8xx: Remove DIRTY pte handling in DTLB Error.

In-Reply-To: <1255597466-30976-8-git-send-email-Joakim.Tjernlund@transmode.se>

There is no need to do set the DIRTY bit directly in DTLB Error.
Trap to do_page_fault() and let the generic MM code do the work.

Now that 8xx can fixup dcbX instructions, start using them
where possible like every other PowerPc arch do.

* [PATCH 2/8] 8xx: Update TLB asm so it behaves as linux mm expects.
From: Joakim Tjernlund @ 2009-10-15  9:04 UTC (permalink / raw)
  To: Scott Wood, Rex Feany, Benjamin Herrenschmidt,
	linuxppc-dev@ozlabs.org
In-Reply-To: <1255597466-30976-2-git-send-email-Joakim.Tjernlund@transmode.se>

Update the TLB asm to make proper use of _PAGE_DIRY and _PAGE_ACCESSED.
Get rid of _PAGE_HWWRITE too.
Pros:
 - I/D TLB Miss never needs to write to the linux pte.
 - _PAGE_ACCESSED is only set on TLB Error fixing accounting
 - _PAGE_DIRTY is mapped to 0x100, the changed bit, and is set directly
    when a page has been made dirty.
 - Proper RO/RW mapping of user space.
 - Free up 2 SW TLB bits in the linux pte(add back _PAGE_WRITETHRU ?)
 - kernel RO/user NA support.
Cons:
 - A few more instructions in the TLB Miss routines.

* [PATCH 3/8] 8xx: Tag DAR with 0x00f0 to catch buggy instructions.
From: Joakim Tjernlund @ 2009-10-15  9:04 UTC (permalink / raw)
  To: Scott Wood, Rex Feany, Benjamin Herrenschmidt,
	linuxppc-dev@ozlabs.org
In-Reply-To: <1255597466-30976-3-git-send-email-Joakim.Tjernlund@transmode.se>

dcbz, dcbf, dcbi, dcbst and icbi do not set DAR when they
cause a DTLB Error. Dectect this by tagging DAR with 0x00f0
at every exception exit that modifies DAR.
Test for DAR=0x00f0 in DataTLBError and bail
to handle_page_fault().

* [PATCH 4/8] 8xx: Fixup DAR from buggy dcbX instructions.
From: Joakim Tjernlund @ 2009-10-15  9:04 UTC (permalink / raw)
  To: Scott Wood, Rex Feany, Benjamin Herrenschmidt,
	linuxppc-dev@ozlabs.org
In-Reply-To: <1255597466-30976-4-git-send-email-Joakim.Tjernlund@transmode.se>

This is an assembler version to fixup DAR not being set
by dcbX, icbi instructions. There are two versions, one
uses selfmodifing code, the other uses a
jump table but is much bigger(default).

* [PATCH 0/8]  Fix 8xx MMU/TLB
From: Joakim Tjernlund @ 2009-10-15  9:04 UTC (permalink / raw)
  To: Scott Wood, Rex Feany, Benjamin Herrenschmidt,
	linuxppc-dev@ozlabs.org

Now updated with Scott's remarks.
There is still(probably) a trivial conflict in pte-8xx.h

Joakim Tjernlund (8):
  8xx: invalidate non present TLBs
  8xx: Update TLB asm so it behaves as linux mm expects.
  8xx: Tag DAR with 0x00f0 to catch buggy instructions.
  8xx: Fixup DAR from buggy dcbX instructions.
  8xx: Add missing Guarded setting in DTLB Error.
  8xx: Restore _PAGE_WRITETHRU
  8xx: start using dcbX instructions in various copy routines
  8xx: Remove DIRTY pte handling in DTLB Error.

8xx sometimes need to load a invalid/non-present TLBs in
it DTLB asm handler.
These must be invalidated separaly as linux mm don't.

* [patch 2/3] powerpc: Check nvram_error_log_index in nvram_clear_error_log()
From: Thomas Gleixner @ 2009-10-15  8:54 UTC (permalink / raw)
  To: Benjamin Herrenschmidt; +Cc: linuxppc-dev
In-Reply-To: <20091015085253.295880694@linutronix.de>

nvram_clear_error_log() calls ppc_md.nvram_write() even when
nvram_error_log_index is -1 (invalid). The nvram_write() function does
not check for a negative offset. 

Check nvram_error_log_index as the other nvram log functions do.

* [patch 1/3] powerpc: Remove unused code
From: Thomas Gleixner @ 2009-10-15  8:54 UTC (permalink / raw)

In-Reply-To: <20091015085253.295880694@linutronix.de>

nvram_find_partition() has no user. The call site was removed in the
arch/powerpc move, but the function stayed. Remove it.

Ben,

while looking at the ioctl in nvram_64.c I noticed a couple of issues
which are addressed by the folling patch series.

Thanks,
