powerpc/eeh: Fix crash on converting OF node to edev

2012-10-12T20:46:55+00:00

commit 1e38b7140185e384da216aff66a711df09b5afc9 upstream.

The kernel crash was reported by Alexy. He was testing some feature
with private kernel, in which Alexy added some code in pci_pm_reset()
to read the CSR after writting it. The bug could be reproduced on
Fiber Channel card (Fibre Channel: Emulex Corporation Saturn-X:
LightPulse Fibre Channel Host Adapter (rev 03)) by the following
commands.

	# echo 1 > /sys/devices/pci0004:01/0004:01:00.0/reset
	# rmmod lpfc
	# modprobe lpfc

The history behind the test case is that those additional config
space reading operations in pci_pm_reset() would cause EEH error,
but we didn't detect EEH error until "modprobe lpfc". For the case,
all the PCI devices on PCI bus (0004:01) were removed and added after
PE reset. Then the EEH devices would be figured out again based on
the OF nodes. Unfortunately, there were some child OF nodes under
PCI device (0004:01:00.0), but they didn't have attached PCI_DN since
they're invisible from PCI domain. However, we were still trying to
convert OF node to EEH device without checking on the attached PCI_DN.
Eventually, it caused the kernel crash as follows:

The patch changes of_node_to_eeh_dev() and just returns NULL if the
passed OF node doesn't have attached PCI_DN.

powerpc: Fix build of some debug irq code

2012-07-10T09:16:20+00:00

There was a typo, checking for CONFIG_TRACE_IRQFLAG instead of
CONFIG_TRACE_IRQFLAGS causing some useful debug code to not be
built

This in turns causes a build error on BookE 64-bit due to incorrect
semicolons at the end of a couple of macros, so let's fix that too

powerpc: More fixes for lazy IRQ vs. idle

2012-07-10T09:16:07+00:00

Looks like we still have issues with pSeries and Cell idle code
vs. the lazy irq state. In fact, the reset fixes that went upstream
are exposing the problem more by causing BUG_ON() to trigger (which
this patch turns into a WARN_ON instead).

We need to be careful when using a variant of low power state that
has the side effect of turning interrupts back on, to properly set
all the SW & lazy state to look as if everything is enabled before
we enter the low power state with MSR:EE off as we will return with
MSR:EE on. If not, we have a discrepancy of state which can cause
things to go very wrong later on.

This patch moves the logic into a helper and uses it from the
pseries and cell idle code. The power4/970 idle code already got
things right (in assembly even !) so I'm not touching it. The power7
"bare metal" idle code is subtly different and correct. Remains PA6T
and some hypervisor based Cell platforms which have questionable
code in there, but they are mostly dead platforms so I'll fix them
when I manage to get final answers from the respective maintainers
about how the low power state actually works on them.

powerpc: check_and_cede_processor() never cedes

2012-06-29T04:35:37+00:00

Commit f948501b36c6 ("Make hard_irq_disable() actually hard-disable
interrupts") caused check_and_cede_processor to stop working.
->irq_happened will never be zero right after a hard_irq_disable
so the compiler removes the call to cede_processor completely.

The bug was introduced back in the lazy interrupt handling rework
of 3.4 but was hidden until recently because hard_irq_disable did
nothing.

This issue will eventually appear in 3.4 stable since the
hard_irq_disable fix is marked stable, so mark this one for stable
too.

Make hard_irq_disable() actually hard-disable interrupts

2012-06-15T05:27:41+00:00

At present, hard_irq_disable() does nothing on powerpc because of
this code in include/linux/interrupt.h:

    #ifndef hard_irq_disable
    #define hard_irq_disable()      do { } while(0)
    #endif

So we need to make our hard_irq_disable be a macro.  It was previously
a macro until commit 7230c56441 ("powerpc: Rework lazy-interrupt
handling") changed it to a static inline function.
