MIPS: MSPxxxx: define MIPS34K_MISSED_ITLB_WAR for other PMC-Sierra SoC

2009-08-03T16:52:43+00:00

Trying to build a PMC-Sierra MSP4200 VoIP gateway defconfig will not work
since MIPS34K_MISSED_ITLB_WAR is not defined for all boards supported
within pmc-serria/msp71xx. This patch defines MIPS34K_MISSED_ITLB_WAR to
prevent such build failures:

MIPS: Avoid clobbering struct pt_regs in kthreads

2009-08-03T16:52:41+00:00

The resume() implementation octeon_switch.S examines the saved cp0_status
register.  We were clobbering the entire pt_regs structure in kernel
threads leading to random crashes.

When switching away from a kernel thread, the saved cp0_status is examined
and if bit 30 is set it is cleared and the CP2 state saved into the pt_regs
structure.  Since the kernel thread stack overlaid the pt_regs structure
this resulted in a corrupt stack.  When the kthread with the corrupt stack
was resumed, it could crash if it used any of the data in the stack that was
clobbered.

We fix it by moving the kernel thread stack down so it doesn't overlay
pt_regs.

MIPS: Eleminate filenames from comments

2009-08-03T16:52:40+00:00

They tend to get not updated when files are moved around or copied and
lack any obvious use.  While at it zap some only too obvious comments and
as per Shinya's suggestion, add a copyright header to extable.c.

mm: Pass virtual address to [__]p{te,ud,md}_free_tlb()

mm: Pass virtual address to [__]p{te,ud,md}_free_tlb()

Upcoming paches to support the new 64-bit "BookE" powerpc architecture
will need to have the virtual address corresponding to PTE page when
freeing it, due to the way the HW table walker works.

Basically, the TLB can be loaded with "large" pages that cover the whole
virtual space (well, sort-of, half of it actually) represented by a PTE
page, and which contain an "indirect" bit indicating that this TLB entry
RPN points to an array of PTEs from which the TLB can then create direct
entries. Thus, in order to invalidate those when PTE pages are deleted,
we need the virtual address to pass to tlbilx or tlbivax instructions.

The old trick of sticking it somewhere in the PTE page struct page sucks
too much, the address is almost readily available in all call sites and
almost everybody implemets these as macros, so we may as well add the
argument everywhere. I added it to the pmd and pud variants for consistency.

sched: INIT_PREEMPT_COUNT

2009-07-10T21:24:05+00:00

Pull the initial preempt_count value into a single
definition site.

Maintainers for: alpha, ia64 and m68k, please have a look,
your arch code is funny.

The header magic is a bit odd, but similar to the KERNEL_DS
one, CPP waits with expanding these macros until the
INIT_THREAD_INFO macro itself is expanded, which is in
arch/*/kernel/init_task.c where we've already included
sched.h so we're good.
