Sam Ravnborg b46da0567d kbuild: use relative path to -I
Using a relative path has the advantage that when the kernel source
tree is moved the relevant .o files will not be rebuild just because
the path to the kernel src has changed.
This also got rid of a user of TOPDIR - which has been deprecated for a long time now.

KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki b848e0a07d [PATCH] for_each_possible_cpu: ppc
for_each_cpu() actually iterates across all possible CPUs.  We've had mistakes
in the past where people were using for_each_cpu() where they should have been
iterating across only online or present CPUs.  This is inefficient and
possibly buggy.

We're renaming for_each_cpu() to for_each_possible_cpu() to avoid this in the
future.

This patch replaces for_each_cpu with for_each_possible_cpu.

Benjamin Herrenschmidt e8222502ee [PATCH] powerpc: Kill _machine and hard-coded platform numbers
This removes statically assigned platform numbers and reworks the
powerpc platform probe code to use a better mechanism.  With this,
board support files can simply declare a new machine type with a
macro, and implement a probe() function that uses the flattened
device-tree to detect if they apply for a given machine.

We now have a machine_is() macro that replaces the comparisons of
_machine with the various PLATFORM_* constants.  This commit also
changes various drivers to use the new macro instead of looking at
_machine.

Paul Mackerras 0a26b1364f ppc: Remove CHRP, POWER3 and POWER4 support from arch/ppc
32-bit CHRP machines are now supported only in arch/powerpc, as are
all 64-bit PowerPC processors.  This means that we don't use
Open Firmware on any platform in arch/ppc any more.

This makes PReP support a single-platform option like every other
platform support option in arch/ppc now, thus CONFIG_PPC_MULTIPLATFORM
is gone from arch/ppc.  CONFIG_PPC_PREP is the option that selects
PReP support and is generally what has replaced
CONFIG_PPC_MULTIPLATFORM within arch/ppc.

_machine is all but dead now, being #defined to 0.

Updated Makefiles, comments and Kconfig options generally to reflect
these changes.

Alan Stern e041c68341 [PATCH] Notifier chain update: API changes
The kernel's implementation of notifier chains is unsafe.  There is no
protection against entries being added to or removed from a chain while the
chain is in use.  The issues were discussed in this thread:

    http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=113018709002036&w=2

We noticed that notifier chains in the kernel fall into two basic usage
classes:

	"Blocking" chains are always called from a process context
	and the callout routines are allowed to sleep;

	"Atomic" chains can be called from an atomic context and
	the callout routines are not allowed to sleep.

We decided to codify this distinction and make it part of the API.  Therefore
this set of patches introduces three new, parallel APIs: one for blocking
notifiers, one for atomic notifiers, and one for "raw" notifiers (which is
really just the old API under a new name).  New kinds of data structures are
used for the heads of the chains, and new routines are defined for
registration, unregistration, and calling a chain.  The three APIs are
explained in include/linux/notifier.h and their implementation is in
kernel/sys.c.

With atomic and blocking chains, the implementation guarantees that the chain
links will not be corrupted and that chain callers will not get messed up by
entries being added or removed.  For raw chains the implementation provides no
guarantees at all; users of this API must provide their own protections.  (The
idea was that situations may come up where the assumptions of the atomic and
blocking APIs are not appropriate, so it should be possible for users to
handle these things in their own way.)

There are some limitations, which should not be too hard to live with.  For
atomic/blocking chains, registration and unregistration must always be done in
a process context since the chain is protected by a mutex/rwsem.  Also, a
callout routine for a non-raw chain must not try to register or unregister
entries on its own chain.  (This did happen in a couple of places and the code
had to be changed to avoid it.)

Since atomic chains may be called from within an NMI handler, they cannot use
spinlocks for synchronization.  Instead we use RCU.  The overhead falls almost
entirely in the unregister routine, which is okay since unregistration is much
less frequent that calling a chain.

Here is the list of chains that we adjusted and their classifications.  None
of them use the raw API, so for the moment it is only a placeholder.

  ATOMIC CHAINS
  -------------
arch/i386/kernel/traps.c:		i386die_chain
arch/ia64/kernel/traps.c:		ia64die_chain
arch/powerpc/kernel/traps.c:		powerpc_die_chain
arch/sparc64/kernel/traps.c:		sparc64die_chain
arch/x86_64/kernel/traps.c:		die_chain
drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_si_intf.c:	xaction_notifier_list
kernel/panic.c:				panic_notifier_list
kernel/profile.c:			task_free_notifier
net/bluetooth/hci_core.c:		hci_notifier
net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_conntrack_core.c:	ip_conntrack_chain
net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_conntrack_core.c:	ip_conntrack_expect_chain
net/ipv6/addrconf.c:			inet6addr_chain
net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_core.c:	nf_conntrack_chain
net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_core.c:	nf_conntrack_expect_chain
net/netlink/af_netlink.c:		netlink_chain

  BLOCKING CHAINS
  ---------------
arch/powerpc/platforms/pseries/reconfig.c:	pSeries_reconfig_chain
arch/s390/kernel/process.c:		idle_chain
arch/x86_64/kernel/process.c		idle_notifier
drivers/base/memory.c:			memory_chain
drivers/cpufreq/cpufreq.c		cpufreq_policy_notifier_list
drivers/cpufreq/cpufreq.c		cpufreq_transition_notifier_list
drivers/macintosh/adb.c:		adb_client_list
drivers/macintosh/via-pmu.c		sleep_notifier_list
drivers/macintosh/via-pmu68k.c		sleep_notifier_list
drivers/macintosh/windfarm_core.c	wf_client_list
drivers/usb/core/notify.c		usb_notifier_list
drivers/video/fbmem.c			fb_notifier_list
kernel/cpu.c				cpu_chain
kernel/module.c				module_notify_list
kernel/profile.c			munmap_notifier
kernel/profile.c			task_exit_notifier
kernel/sys.c				reboot_notifier_list
net/core/dev.c				netdev_chain
net/decnet/dn_dev.c:			dnaddr_chain
net/ipv4/devinet.c:			inetaddr_chain

It's possible that some of these classifications are wrong.  If they are,
please let us know or submit a patch to fix them.  Note that any chain that
gets called very frequently should be atomic, because the rwsem read-locking
used for blocking chains is very likely to incur cache misses on SMP systems.
(However, if the chain's callout routines may sleep then the chain cannot be
atomic.)

The patch set was written by Alan Stern and Chandra Seetharaman, incorporating
material written by Keith Owens and suggestions from Paul McKenney and Andrew
Morton.

Paul Mackerras e7e2d2da26 powerpc: Don't compile in arch/ppc/kernel for 32-bit ARCH=powerpc
All of the things needed for 32-bit ARCH=powerpc builds have now
moved to arch/powerpc/kernel, so we don't need to go down into
arch/ppc/kernel any more, and we can remove the CONFIG_PPC_MERGE
conditional from arch/ppc/kernel/Makefile.

There were two files still referenced in the merge section of
arch/ppc/kernel/Makefile: ppc-stub.o, depending on CONFIG_KGDB,
and dma-mapping.o, depending on CONFIG_NOT_COHERENT_CACHE.  None
of the platforms currently in ARCH=powerpc have caches that
aren't coherent with DMA, but when we do get one we'll move
dma-mapping.c over.  As for CONFIG_KGDB, none of the Kconfig
files in the tree define it, so I'll let it languish for now.

When we stop allocating percpu memory for not-possible CPUs we must not touch
the percpu data for not-possible CPUs at all.  The correct way of doing this
is to test cpu_possible() or to use for_each_cpu().

This patch is a kernel-wide sweep of all instances of NR_CPUS.  I found very
few instances of this bug, if any.  But the patch converts lots of open-coded
test to use the preferred helper macros.

Adrian Cox bbbe1212bd [PATCH] ppc: Fix platform_notify functions marked __init
While adding USB support to an MV64360 based board this week, I
discovered that all MV64x60 boards in the kernel have platform_notify
functions marked with __init. This causes an oops if a device is added
after boot.

The patch below removes the __init markers. I do not have all these
boards to test on, but the change seems very unlikely to break anything
else.

Paul Mackerras 1bd79336a4 powerpc: Fix various syscall/signal/swapcontext bugs
A careful reading of the recent changes to the system call entry/exit
paths revealed several problems, plus some things that could be
simplified and improved:

* 32-bit wasn't testing the _TIF_NOERROR bit in the syscall fast exit
  path, so it was only doing anything with it once it saw some other
  bit being set.  In other words, the noerror behaviour would apply to
  the next system call where we had to reschedule or deliver a signal,
  which is not necessarily the current system call.

* 32-bit wasn't doing the call to ptrace_notify in the syscall exit
  path when the _TIF_SINGLESTEP bit was set.

* _TIF_RESTOREALL was in both _TIF_USER_WORK_MASK and
  _TIF_PERSYSCALL_MASK, which is odd since _TIF_RESTOREALL is only set
  by system calls.  I took it out of _TIF_USER_WORK_MASK.

* On 64-bit, _TIF_RESTOREALL wasn't causing the non-volatile registers
  to be restored (unless perhaps a signal was delivered or the syscall
  was traced or single-stepped).  Thus the non-volatile registers
  weren't restored on exit from a signal handler.  We probably got
  away with it mostly because signal handlers written in C wouldn't
  alter the non-volatile registers.

* On 32-bit I simplified the code and made it more like 64-bit by
  making the syscall exit path jump to ret_from_except to handle
  preemption and signal delivery.

* 32-bit was calling do_signal unnecessarily when _TIF_RESTOREALL was
  set - but I think because of that 32-bit was actually restoring the
  non-volatile registers on exit from a signal handler.

* I changed the order of enabling interrupts and saving the
  non-volatile registers before calling do_syscall_trace_leave; now we
  enable interrupts first.

Paul Smith 4f1933620f kbuild: change kbuild to not rely on incorrect GNU make behavior
The kbuild system takes advantage of an incorrect behavior in GNU make.
Once this behavior is fixed, all files in the kernel rebuild every time,
even if nothing has changed.  This patch ensures kbuild works with both
the incorrect and correct behaviors of GNU make.

For more details on the incorrect behavior, see:

http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-make/2006-03/msg00003.html

Changes in this patch:
  - Keep all targets that are to be marked .PHONY in a variable, PHONY.
  - Add .PHONY: $(PHONY) to mark them properly.
  - Remove any $(PHONY) files from the $? list when determining whether
    targets are up-to-date or not.

Implemented by  modification of the .name field of the platform device,
when PDs with the
same names are to be used within different drivers, as
<device_name> -> <device_name>:<function>
Corresponding drivers should change the .name in struct device_driver to
reflect upper of course.

Added ppc_sys_device_disable/enable function set, making it easier to
disable all the inexistent/not utilized platform device way pdevs. By the
check of the "disabled" bit in the config field of ppc_sys_specs, disabled
platform devices will be either added/removed from the bus, or simply not
registered on it, depending on the time when disable/enable call asserted.

The default behaviour when nothing is disabled/enabled will be "all devices
are enabled", which is the same as before.

Also helper platform_notify_map function added, making assignment of
board-specific platform_info more consistent and generic.

This patch only deals with the serial port definitions as there is no
support for any other xilinx IP cores in the kernel tree at the moment.

Board specific configuration moved out of virtex.[ch] and into the
xparameters.h wrapper.

This also prepares for the transition to the flattened device tree model.
When the bootloader provides a device tree generated from an xparameters.h
files, the kernel will no longer need xparameters/*.  The platform bus will
get populated with data from the device tree, and the device drivers will
be automatically connected to the devices.  Only the bootloader (or
ppcboot) will need xparameters directly.

The gianfar driver changed how it required MDIO bus and phy id's
to be passed to it.  Also, it no longer passes the physical address
of the MDIO bus.  Instead we have a proper platform device.

akpm@osdl.org 198e2f1811 [PATCH] scheduler cache-hot-autodetect
)

From: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

This is the latest version of the scheduler cache-hot-auto-tune patch.

The first problem was that detection time scaled with O(N^2), which is
unacceptable on larger SMP and NUMA systems. To solve this:

- I've added a 'domain distance' function, which is used to cache
  measurement results. Each distance is only measured once. This means
  that e.g. on NUMA distances of 0, 1 and 2 might be measured, on HT
  distances 0 and 1, and on SMP distance 0 is measured. The code walks
  the domain tree to determine the distance, so it automatically follows
  whatever hierarchy an architecture sets up. This cuts down on the boot
  time significantly and removes the O(N^2) limit. The only assumption
  is that migration costs can be expressed as a function of domain
  distance - this covers the overwhelming majority of existing systems,
  and is a good guess even for more assymetric systems.

  [ People hacking systems that have assymetries that break this
    assumption (e.g. different CPU speeds) should experiment a bit with
    the cpu_distance() function. Adding a ->migration_distance factor to
    the domain structure would be one possible solution - but lets first
    see the problem systems, if they exist at all. Lets not overdesign. ]

Another problem was that only a single cache-size was used for measuring
the cost of migration, and most architectures didnt set that variable
up. Furthermore, a single cache-size does not fit NUMA hierarchies with
L3 caches and does not fit HT setups, where different CPUs will often
have different 'effective cache sizes'. To solve this problem:

- Instead of relying on a single cache-size provided by the platform and
  sticking to it, the code now auto-detects the 'effective migration
  cost' between two measured CPUs, via iterating through a wide range of
  cachesizes. The code searches for the maximum migration cost, which
  occurs when the working set of the test-workload falls just below the
  'effective cache size'. I.e. real-life optimized search is done for
  the maximum migration cost, between two real CPUs.

  This, amongst other things, has the positive effect hat if e.g. two
  CPUs share a L2/L3 cache, a different (and accurate) migration cost
  will be found than between two CPUs on the same system that dont share
  any caches.

(The reliable measurement of migration costs is tricky - see the source
for details.)

Furthermore i've added various boot-time options to override/tune
migration behavior.

Firstly, there's a blanket override for autodetection:

	migration_cost=1000,2000,3000

will override the depth 0/1/2 values with 1msec/2msec/3msec values.

Secondly, there's a global factor that can be used to increase (or
decrease) the autodetected values:

	migration_factor=120

will increase the autodetected values by 20%. This option is useful to
tune things in a workload-dependent way - e.g. if a workload is
cache-insensitive then CPU utilization can be maximized by specifying
migration_factor=0.

I've tested the autodetection code quite extensively on x86, on 3
P3/Xeon/2MB, and the autodetected values look pretty good:

Dual Celeron (128K L2 cache):

 ---------------------
 migration cost matrix (max_cache_size: 131072, cpu: 467 MHz):
 ---------------------
           [00]    [01]
 [00]:     -     1.7(1)
 [01]:   1.7(1)    -
 ---------------------
 cacheflush times [2]: 0.0 (0) 1.7 (1784008)
 ---------------------

Here the slow memory subsystem dominates system performance, and even
though caches are small, the migration cost is 1.7 msecs.

Dual HT P4 (512K L2 cache):

 ---------------------
 migration cost matrix (max_cache_size: 524288, cpu: 2379 MHz):
 ---------------------
           [00]    [01]    [02]    [03]
 [00]:     -     0.4(1)  0.0(0)  0.4(1)
 [01]:   0.4(1)    -     0.4(1)  0.0(0)
 [02]:   0.0(0)  0.4(1)    -     0.4(1)
 [03]:   0.4(1)  0.0(0)  0.4(1)    -
 ---------------------
 cacheflush times [2]: 0.0 (33900) 0.4 (448514)
 ---------------------

Here it can be seen that there is no migration cost between two HT
siblings (CPU#0/2 and CPU#1/3 are separate physical CPUs). A fast memory
system makes inter-physical-CPU migration pretty cheap: 0.4 msecs.

8-way P3/Xeon [2MB L2 cache]:

 ---------------------
 migration cost matrix (max_cache_size: 2097152, cpu: 700 MHz):
 ---------------------
           [00]    [01]    [02]    [03]    [04]    [05]    [06]    [07]
 [00]:     -    19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1)
 [01]:  19.2(1)    -    19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1)
 [02]:  19.2(1) 19.2(1)    -    19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1)
 [03]:  19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1)    -    19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1)
 [04]:  19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1)    -    19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1)
 [05]:  19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1)    -    19.2(1) 19.2(1)
 [06]:  19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1)    -    19.2(1)
 [07]:  19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1)    -
 ---------------------
 cacheflush times [2]: 0.0 (0) 19.2 (19281756)
 ---------------------

This one has huge caches and a relatively slow memory subsystem - so the
migration cost is 19 msecs.

Paul Mackerras 624cee31bc powerpc: make ARCH=ppc use arch/powerpc/kernel/process.c
Commit 5388fb1025 made signal_32.c
use discard_lazy_cpu_state, which broke ARCH=ppc because that
uses the common signal_32.c but has its own process.c.  Make ARCH=ppc
use the common process.c to fix this and to reduce the amount
of duplicated code.
