Yes, it is.  of_create_pci_dev() calls set_pcie_port_type()
http://lxr.linux.no/linux+v2.6.39/arch/powerpc/kernel/pci_of_scan.c#L144

That function sets pdev->pcie_cap
http://lxr.linux.no/linux+v2.6.39/drivers/pci/probe.c#L896

So, it should be set.  It looks like there is a bug in
of_create_pci_dev, as set_pcie_port_type is being called BEFORE the
BARs are setup.  If you move set_pcie_port_type prior to
pci_device_add (perhaps even after), then I bet the issue is resolved.

Hi Grant,
is this patch in your eyes ok to be scheduled for the next linux merge window or
is something missing? Or should it go through the powerpc tree and not through
your spi tree?

Please let me know your opinion.

So I took initiative and looked again into this issue.  Below you can
find a patch that is based on Ben's -EAGAIN idea.  The hvc console layer
takes care of retrying depending on the backend's return code.

However, the main issue is that from a backend perspective, there is no
difference between tty and console output.  Because consoles, especially
the preferred console, behave different than a simple tty.  Blocked write
to a preferred console can stop the system.

So with the patch below, the backend can now indirectly control the way
console output is handled for it.  I still have to think if this solution
is ok or if it is better to introduce a new callback to console output only
(and might provide a default implemenatation similar to the patch below).

NOTE: I did not yet test this patch but will do.. I just want to share it
      early to get feedback from you.

-->8---------------------------------------------------------------------

Currently, the hvc_console_print() function drops console output if the
hvc backend's put_chars() returns 0.  This patch changes this behavior
to allow a retry through returning -EAGAIN.

This change also affects the hvc_push() function.  Both functions are
changed to handle -EAGAIN and to retry the put_chars() operation.

If a hvc backend returns -EAGAIN, the retry handling differs:

  - hvc_console_print() spins to write the complete console output.
  - hvc_push() behaves the same way as for returning 0.

Now hvc backends can indirectly control the way how console output is
handled through the hvc console layer.

* Analysing a kernel panic
From: Guillaume Dargaud @ 2011-07-05 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Hello all,
one of my drivers is causing a kernel panic and I _think_ it happens in the 1st call to the interrupt routine.
What kind of information can I extract from the following ?
Is it like a core dump that I can load with the executable in the debugger to know exactly what happened (I doubt it) ?

* [RFC] virtio: expose for non-virtualization users too
From: Ohad Ben-Cohen @ 2011-07-05 14:06 UTC (permalink / raw)

virtio has been so far used only in the context of virtualization,
and the virtio Kconfig was sourced directly by the relevant arch
Kconfigs when VIRTUALIZATION was selected.

Now that we start using virtio for inter-processor communications,
we need to source the virtio Kconfig outside of the virtualization
scope too.

Moreover, some architectures might use virtio for both virtualization
and inter-processor communications, so directly sourcing virtio
might yield unexpected results due to conflicting selections.

The simple solution offered by this patch is to always source virtio's
Kconfig in drivers/Kconfig, and remove it from the appropriate arch
Kconfigs. Additionally, a virtio menu entry has been added so virtio
drivers don't show up in the general drivers menu.

This way anyone can use virtio, though it's arguably less accessible
(and neat!) for virtualization users now.

Note: some architectures (mips and sh) seem to have a VIRTUALIZATION
menu merely for sourcing virtio's Kconfig, so that menu is removed too.

Go read the original thread.  The problem is that tty writes and console=20
writes are treated the same by the hvc client driver.  If a client driver=20
detects that the hypervisor is busy, it has the choice of either spinning=20
or returning right away.  Spinning is not acceptable for tty output, so=20
all drivers return right away.  hvc then drops the unwritten characters.

According to Hendrik, this is still happening.

> We just need to fix HVC properly.

Where were you two years ago?  I complained about the problem, and even=20
posted a hackish "fix".  The response I got was tepid -- some=20
acknowledgement that the problem exists, but no real desire to fix it by=20
anyone.

So I had no choice but to abandon hvc.  And frankly, I still don't=20
understand why it exists.  Since then, I wrote a very nice console/tty=20
driver, and I have no plans to return to hvc even if the problem is fixed.

Nope I haven't anything like that. What I reported privately to you a
few ago was actually due to a mistake of mine. Otherwise I haven't seen
other problems.

-ENOSPC is likely related to the breakpoint slot reservation, in kernel/events/hw_breakpoint.c

Should really use voltage-ranges, not quirks.

The existing code it pretty ugly.  How about we clean it up even more
like this?

From: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org>

We check for timeout expiry in the outer loop, but we also need to
check it in the inner loop or we can lock up forever waiting for a
CPU to hit real mode.

That is a fun conclusion considering that hvc has been written for the
pseries hypervisor which ... can return BUSY on writes :-)

Sucktastic.

We just need to fix HVC properly.

I think the code assumes, the kernel is loaded in 256M aligned page. You may
want to mention that in the description here.

* [PATCH] powerpc/kdump: Fix timeout in crash_kexec_wait_realmode
From: Anton Blanchard @ 2011-07-05  6:12 UTC (permalink / raw)
  To: benh, mikey, linuxppc-dev


We check for timeout expiry in the outer loop, but we also need to
check it in the inner loop or we can lock up forever waiting for a
CPU to hit real mode.

* [PATCH] mm: Fix output of total_ram.
From: Tony Breeds @ 2011-07-05  4:44 UTC (permalink / raw)
  To: LinuxPPC-dev, Benjamin Herrenschmidt

On 32bit platforms that support >= 4GB memory total_ram was truncated.
This creates a confusing printk:
	Top of RAM: 0x100000000, Total RAM: 0x0
Fix that:
	Top of RAM: 0x100000000, Total RAM: 0x100000000

For AMP, different kernel instances load into separate memory regions.
Read the start of memory from the device tree and limit the memory to what's
specified in the device tree.

* [PATCH 1/3] powerpc/47x: allow kernel to be loaded in higher physical memory
From: Tony Breeds @ 2011-07-05  4:36 UTC (permalink / raw)
  To: LinuxPPC-dev, Josh Boyer, Benjamin Herrenschmidt

From: Dave Kleikamp <shaggy@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

The 44x code (which is shared by 47x) assumes the available physical memory
begins at 0x00000000.  This is not necessarily the case in an AMP
environment.

Support CONFIG_RELOCATABLE for 476 in order to allow the kernel to be
loaded into a higher memory range.

I started that thread.  After much soul searching, we came to the
conclusion that HVC is not compatible with hypervisors that return
BUSY on writes.  So I threw out my HVC driver and rewrote it as a
standard console and TTY driver.  That driver is waiting to be
included in the 3.1 kernel.

* [PATCH 2/3] eSDHC: Fix errors when booting kernel with fsl esdhc
From: Roy Zang @ 2011-07-05  4:19 UTC (permalink / raw)
  To: linux-mmc; +Cc: Xu lei, linuxppc-dev, akpm
In-Reply-To: <1309839543-6031-1-git-send-email-tie-fei.zang@freescale.com>

From: Xu lei <B33228@freescale.com>

When esdhc module was enabled in p5020, there were following errors:

mmc0: Timeout waiting for hardware interrupt.
mmc0: error -110 whilst initialising SD card
mmc0: Unexpected interrupt 0x02000000.
mmc0: Timeout waiting for hardware interrupt.
mmc0: error -110 whilst initialising SD card
mmc0: Unexpected interrupt 0x02000000.

It is because ESDHC controller has different bit setting for PROCTL
register, when kernel sets Power Control Register by method for standard
SD Host Specification, it would overwritten FSL ESDHC PROCTL[DMAS];
when it set Host Control Registers[DMAS], it sets PROCTL[EMODE] and
PROCTL[D3CD]. These operations will set bad bits for PROCTL Register
on FSL ESDHC Controller and cause errors, so this patch will make esdhc
driver access FSL PROCTL Register according to block guide instead of
standard SD Host Specification.

For some FSL chips, such as MPC8536/P2020, PROCTL[VOLT_SEL] and PROCTL[DMAS]
bits are reserved and even if they are set to wrong bits there is no error.
But considering that all FSL ESDHC Controller register map is not fully
compliant to standard SD Host Specification, we put the patch to all of
FSL ESDHC Controllers.

* [PATCH 3/3] eSDHC: fix incorrect default value of the capabilities register on P4080
From: Roy Zang @ 2011-07-05  4:19 UTC (permalink / raw)
  To: linux-mmc; +Cc: akpm, linuxppc-dev
In-Reply-To: <1309839543-6031-2-git-send-email-tie-fei.zang@freescale.com>

P4080 eSDHC errata 12 describes incorrect default value of the
the host controller capabilities register.

The default value of the VS18 and VS30 fields in the host controller
capabilities register (HOSTCAPBLT) are incorrect. The default of these bits
should be zero instead of one in the eSDHC logic.

This patch adds the workaround for these errata.

Meanwhile, I was testing hardware breakpoints through perf and found
that monitoring a given address fails when using 'perf record' (returns
-ENOSPC) while 'perf stat' and watchpoint through gdb works fine (see
logs below).

Has this behaviour been reported for other perf counters?

I will check this again for my hvc_iucv back-end.  Meanwhile a found
an old thread discussing the same issue.  It covers some differences
between console and ttys which actually does not matter for hvc-backend
because of the shared put_chars() routine.

You can read the thread on lkml.org: http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/10/15/149

For kernel console, I don't see why not wait forever ... If the
underlying backend really lost the connection it can always return a
negative error no ?

Or we could have "well defined" return codes for "wait forever" vs.
"drop this" ... maybe return -EAGAIN.

But then how kconfig knows if the allows that? You need to know if the
arch has the ability to support breakpoints.

This is a commin pattern in Linux Kconfig. Things are often seperated between
ability (some constant value provided by the arch) and the user choice that
depends on that ability.
The advantage of doing this is that you can centralize the generic dependencies,
help menu, etc... into a single place.
