Commit ccbc60d3e19a1b6ae66ca0d89b3da02dde62088b requires CPU

C6X: fix timer64 initialization
Some SoCs have a timer block enable controlled through the DSCR registers.
There is a problem in the timer64 driver initialization where the code
accesses a timer register to get the divisor used to calculate timer clock
rate. If the timer block has not been enabled when this register read takes
place, an exception is generated. This patch makes sure that the timer block
is enabled before accessing the registers.

C6X: DSCR - Device State Configuration Registers
All SoCs provide an area of device configuration registers called the DSCR. The
location of specific registers as well as their use varies considerably from
implementation to implementation. Rather than having to rely on additional
SoC-specific DSCR code for each new supported SoC, this code generalize things
as much as possible using device tree properties. Initialization must take
place early on (setup_arch time) in case the event timer device needs to be
enable via the DSCR.

C6X: EMIF - External Memory Interface
Several SoC parts provide a simple bridge to support external memory mapped
devices. This code probes the device tree for an EMIF node and sets up the
bridge registers if such a node is found. Beyond initial set up, there is no
further need to access the bridge control registers. External devices on the
bus are accessed through their MMIO registers using suitable drivers. The
bridge hardware does provide for timeout and other error interrupts, but these
are not yet supported.

C6X: clocks
The C6X SoCs contain several PLL controllers each with up to 16 clock outputs
feeding into the cores or peripheral clock domains. The hardware is very similar
to arm/mach-davinci clocks. This is still a work in progress which needs to be
updated once device tree clock binding changes shake out.

The C6X architecture currently lacks an MMU so memory management is relatively

C6X: devicetree support
This is the basic devicetree support for C6X. Currently, four boards are
supported. Each one uses a different SoC part. Two of the four supported
SoCs are multicore. One with 3 cores and the other with 6 cores. There is
no coherency between the core-level caches, so SMP is not an option. It is
possible to run separate kernel instances on the various cores. There is
currently no C6X bootloader support for device trees so we build in the DTB
for now.
There are some interesting twists to the hardware which are of note for device
tree support. Each core has its own interrupt controller which is controlled
by special purpose core registers. This core controller provides 12 general
purpose prioritized interrupt sources. Each core is contained within a
hardware "module" which provides L1 and L2 caches, power control, and another
interrupt controller which cascades into the core interrupt controller. These
core module functions are controlled by memory mapped registers. The addresses
for these registers are the same for each core. That is, when coreN accesses
a module-level MMIO register at a given address, it accesses the register for
coreN even though other cores would use the same address to access the register
in the module containing those cores. Other hardware modules (timers, enet, etc)
which are memory mapped can be accessed by all cores.
The timers need some further explanation for multicore SoCs. Even though all
timer control registers are visible to all cores, interrupt routing or other
considerations may make a given timer more suitable for use by a core than
some other timer. Because of this and the desire to have the same image run
on more than one core, the timer nodes have a "ti,core-mask" property which
is used by the driver to scan for a suitable timer to use.

This patch provides the early boot code for C6X architecture. There is a
16 entry vector table which is used to direct reset and interrupt events. The
vector table entries contain a small amount of code (maximum of 8 opcodes)
which simply branches to the actual event handling code.
The head.S code simply clears BSS, setups up a few control registers, and calls
machine_init followed by start_kernel. The machine_init code in setup.c does
the early flat tree parsing (memory, commandline, etc). At setup_arch time, the
code does the usual memory setup and minimally scans the devicetree for any
needed information.

make PACKET_STATISTICS getsockopt report consistently between ring and non-ring
This is a minor change.
Up until kernel 2.6.32, getsockopt(fd, SOL_PACKET, PACKET_STATISTICS,
...) would return total and dropped packets since its last invocation. The
introduction of socket queue overflow reporting [1] changed drop
rate calculation in the normal packet socket path, but not when using a
packet ring. As a result, the getsockopt now returns different statistics
depending on the reception method used. With a ring, it still returns the
count since the last call, as counts are incremented in tpacket_rcv and
reset in getsockopt. Without a ring, it returns 0 if no drops occurred
since the last getsockopt and the total drops over the lifespan of
the socket otherwise. The culprit is this line in packet_rcv, executed
on a drop:
As it shows, the new drop number it taken from the socket drop counter,
which is not reset at getsockopt. I put together a small example
that demonstrates the issue [2]. It runs for 10 seconds and overflows
the queue/ring on every odd second. The reported drop rates are:
ring: 16, 0, 16, 0, 16, ...
non-ring: 0, 15, 0, 30, 0, 46, 0, 60, 0 , 74.
Note how the even ring counts monotonically increase. Because the
getsockopt adds tp_drops to tp_packets, total counts are similarly
reported cumulatively. Long story short, reinstating the original code, as
the below patch does, fixes the issue at the cost of additional per-packet
cycles. Another solution that does not introduce per-packet overhead
is be to keep the current data path, record the value of sk_drops at
getsockopt() at call N in a new field in struct packetsock and subtract
that when reporting at call N+1. I'll be happy to code that, instead,
it's just more messy.

GLIBC. Just build it with "gcc -o test test.c -lpthread -lrt" or
similar.
Run it several times, and you will see cases where the main thread
will measure a process clock difference before and after the nanosleep
which is smaller than the cpu-burner thread's individual thread clock
difference. This doesn't make any sense since the cpu-burner thread
is part of the top-level process's thread group.
I've reproduced this on both x86-64 and sparc64 (using both 32-bit and
64-bit binaries).
The diff of 'process' should always be >= the diff of 'thread'.
I make sure to wrap the 'thread' clock measurements the most tightly
around the nanosleep() call, and that the 'process' clock measurements
are the outer-most ones.
This is due to us using p->se.sum_exec_runtime in
thread_group_cputime() where we iterate the thread group and sum all
data. This does not take time since the last schedule operation (tick
or otherwise) into account. We can cure this by using
task_sched_runtime() at the cost of having to take locks.
This also means we can (and must) do away with
thread_group_sched_runtime() since the modified thread_group_cputime()
is now more accurate and would deadlock when called from
thread_group_sched_runtime().
Aside of that it makes the function safe on 32 bit systems. The old
code added t->se.sum_exec_runtime unprotected. sum_exec_runtime is a
64bit value and could be changed on another cpu at the same time.

ALSA: hda - Fix a regression of the position-buffer check
The commit a810364a0424c297242c6c66071a42f7675a5568
ALSA: hda - Handle -1 as invalid position, too
caused a regression on some machines that require the position-buffer
instead of LPIB, e.g. resulting in noises with mic recording with
PulseAudio.
This patch fixes the detection by delaying the test at the timing as
same as 3.0, i.e. doing the position check only when requested in
azx_position_ok().

Resource: fix wrong resource window calculation
__find_resource() incorrectly returns a resource window which overlaps
an existing allocated window. This happens when the parent's
resource-window spans 0x00000000 to 0xffffffff and is entirely allocated
to all its children resource-windows.
__find_resource() looks for gaps in resource allocation among the
children resource windows. When it encounters the last child window it
blindly tries the range next to one allocated to the last child. Since
the last child's window ends at 0xffffffff the calculation overflows,
leading the algorithm to believe that any window in the range 0x0000000
to 0xfffffff is available for allocation. This leads to a conflicting
window allocation.
Michal Ludvig reported this issue seen on his platform. The following
patch fixes the problem and has been verified by Michal. I believe this
bug has been there for ages. It got exposed by git commit 2bbc6942273b

powerpc: Fix device-tree matching for Apple U4 bridge
Apple Quad G5 has some oddity in it's device-tree which causes the new
generic matching code to fail to relate nodes for PCI-E devices below U4
with their respective struct pci_dev. This breaks graphics on those
machines among others.
This fixes it using a quirk which copies the node pointer from the host
bridge for the root complex, which makes the generic code work for the
children afterward.

bootup: move 'usermodehelper_enable()' a little earlier
Commit d5767c53535a ("bootup: move 'usermodehelper_enable()' to the end
of do_basic_setup()") moved 'usermodehelper_enable()' to end of
do_basic_setup() to after the initcalls. But then I get failed to let
uvesafb work on my computer, and lose the splash boot.
So maybe we could start usermodehelper_enable a little early to make
some task work that need eary init with the help of user mode.
[ I would *really* prefer that initcalls not call into user space - even
the real 'init' hasn't been execve'd yet, after all! But for uvesafb
it really does look like we don't have much choice.
I considered doing this when we mount the root filesystem, but
depending on config options that is in multiple places. We could do
the usermode helper enable as a rootfs_initcall()..
So I'm just using wang yanqing's trivial patch. It's not wonderful,
but it's simple and should work. We should revisit this some day,
though. - Linus ]

perf tools: Fix raw sample reading
Wrong pointer is being passed for raw data sanity checking, when parsing
sample event.
This ends up with invalid event and perf record being stuck in
__perf_session__process_events function during processing build IDs
(process_buildids function).
Following command hangs up in my setup:
./perf record -e raw_syscalls:sys_enter ls
The fix is to use proper pointer to the raw data instead of the 'u'
union.

sparc64: Force the execute bit in OpenFirmware's translation entries.
In the OF 'translations' property, the template TTEs in the mappings
never specify the executable bit. This is the case even though some
of these mappings are for OF's code segment.
Therefore, we need to force the execute bit on in every mapping.
This problem can only really trigger on Niagara/sun4v machines and the
history behind this is a little complicated.
Previous to sun4v, the sun4u TTE entries lacked a hardware execute
permission bit. So OF didn't have to ever worry about setting
anything to handle executable pages. Any valid TTE loaded into the
I-TLB would be respected by the chip.
But sun4v Niagara chips have a real hardware enforced executable bit
in their TTEs. So it has to be set or else the I-TLB throws an
instruction access exception with type code 6 (protection violation).
We've been extremely fortunate to not get bitten by this in the past.
The best I can tell is that the OF's mappings for it's executable code
were mapped using permanent locked mappings on sun4v in the past.
Therefore, the fact that we didn't have the exec bit set in the OF
translations we would use did not matter in practice.
Thanks to Greg Onufer for helping me track this down.

In the rds_iw_mr_pool struct the free_pinned field keeps track of
memory pinned by free MRs. While this field is incremented properly
upon allocation, it is never decremented upon unmapping. This would
cause the rds_rdma module to crash the kernel upon unloading, by
triggering the BUG_ON in the rds_iw_destroy_mr_pool function.
This change keeps track of the MRs that become unpinned, so that
free_pinned can be decremented appropriately.
