parisc: Export running_on_qemu symbol for modules

2019-05-25T16:26:45+00:00

parisc: Detect QEMU earlier in boot process

2019-04-17T06:36:46+00:00

commit d006e95b5561f708d0385e9677ffe2c46f2ae345 upstream.

While adding LASI support to QEMU, I noticed that the QEMU detection in
the kernel happens much too late. For example, when a LASI chip is found
by the kernel, it registers the LASI LED driver as well.  But when we
run on QEMU it makes sense to avoid spending unnecessary CPU cycles, so
we need to access the running_on_QEMU flag earlier than before.

This patch now makes the QEMU detection the fist task of the Linux
kernel by moving it to where the kernel enters the C-coding.

parisc: qemu idle sleep support

2018-01-10T08:29:54+00:00

commit 310d82784fb4d60c80569f5ca9f53a7f3bf1d477 upstream.

Add qemu idle sleep support when running under qemu with SeaBIOS PDC
firmware.

Like the power architecture we use the "or" assembler instructions,
which translate to nops on real hardware, to indicate that qemu shall
idle sleep.

parisc: Suspend lockup detectors before system halt

2017-08-07T01:59:40+00:00

commit 56188832a50f09998cb570ba3771a1d25c193c0e upstream.

Some machines can't power off the machine, so disable the lockup detectors to
avoid this watchdog BUG to show up every few seconds:
watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#0 stuck for 22s! [systemd-shutdow:1]

parisc: Avoid stalled CPU warnings after system shutdown

2017-04-08T07:30:34+00:00

commit 476e75a44b56038bee9207242d4bc718f6b4de06 upstream.

Commit 73580dac7618 ("parisc: Fix system shutdown halt") introduced an endless
loop for systems which don't provide a software power off function.  But the
soft lockup detector will detect this and report stalled CPUs after some time.
Avoid those unwanted warnings by disabling the soft lockup detector.

parisc: Fix system shutdown halt

2017-03-26T11:05:57+00:00

commit 73580dac7618e4bcd21679f553cf3c97323fec46 upstream.

On those parisc machines which don't provide a software power off
function, the system currently kills the init process at the end of a
shutdown and unexpectedly restarts insteads of halting.
Fix it by adding a loop which will not return.

exit_thread: remove empty bodies

2016-05-21T00:58:30+00:00

Define HAVE_EXIT_THREAD for archs which want to do something in
exit_thread. For others, let's define exit_thread as an empty inline.

This is a cleanup before we change the prototype of exit_thread to
accept a task parameter.

parisc: copy_thread(): rename 'arg' argument to 'kthread_arg'

2015-04-24T11:45:55+00:00

The 'arg' argument to copy_thread() is only ever used when forking a new
kernel thread. Hence, rename it to 'kthread_arg' for clarity (and
consistency with do_fork() and other arch-specific implementations of
copy_thread()).

parisc: add flexible mmap memory layout support

2014-02-02T20:00:13+00:00

Add support for the flexible mmap memory layout (as described in
http://lwn.net/Articles/91829). This is especially very interesting on
parisc since we currently only support 32bit userspace (even with a
64bit Linux kernel).
