of: remove early_init_dt_setup_initrd_arch

2013-10-09T16:39:01+00:00

All arches do essentially the same thing now for
early_init_dt_setup_initrd_arch, so it can now be removed.

c6x: use boot_command_line instead of private c6x_command_line

2013-10-09T16:37:27+00:00

Save some pointless copying of the kernel command line and just use
boot_command_line instead.

Also remove default_command_line as it is not referenced anywhere, and
the DT code already handles the default command line.

of: consolidate definition of early_init_dt_alloc_memory_arch()

2013-08-28T20:18:32+00:00

Most architectures use the same implementation. Collapse the common ones
into a single weak function that can be overridden.

of: Specify initrd location using 64-bit

2013-07-24T10:10:01+00:00

On some PAE architectures, the entire range of physical memory could reside
outside the 32-bit limit.  These systems need the ability to specify the
initrd location using 64-bit numbers.

This patch globally modifies the early_init_dt_setup_initrd_arch() function to
use 64-bit numbers instead of the current unsigned long.

There has been quite a bit of debate about whether to use u64 or phys_addr_t.
It was concluded to stick to u64 to be consistent with rest of the device
tree code. As summarized by Geert, "The address to load the initrd is decided
by the bootloader/user and set at that point later in time. The dtb should not
be tied to the kernel you are booting"

c6x: normalize global variables exported by vmlinux.lds

2013-07-03T23:07:34+00:00

Normalize global variables exported by vmlinux.lds to conform usage
guidelines from include/asm-generic/sections.h.

Use _text to mark the start of the kernel image including the head text,
and _stext to mark the start of the .text section.

This patch also fixes possible bugs due to current address layout that
[__init_begin, __init_end] is a sub-range of [_stext, _etext] and pages
within range [__init_begin, __init_end] will be freed by free_initmem().

dump_stack: unify debug information printed by show_regs()

2013-05-01T00:04:02+00:00

show_regs() is inherently arch-dependent but it does make sense to print
generic debug information and some archs already do albeit in slightly
different forms.  This patch introduces a generic function to print debug
information from show_regs() so that different archs print out the same
information and it's much easier to modify what's printed.

show_regs_print_info() prints out the same debug info as dump_stack()
does plus task and thread_info pointers.

* Archs which didn't print debug info now do.

  alpha, arc, blackfin, c6x, cris, frv, h8300, hexagon, ia64, m32r,
  metag, microblaze, mn10300, openrisc, parisc, score, sh64, sparc,
  um, xtensa

* Already prints debug info.  Replaced with show_regs_print_info().
  The printed information is superset of what used to be there.

  arm, arm64, avr32, mips, powerpc, sh32, tile, unicore32, x86

* s390 is special in that it used to print arch-specific information
  along with generic debug info.  Heiko and Martin think that the
  arch-specific extra isn't worth keeping s390 specfic implementation.
  Converted to use the generic version.

Note that now all archs print the debug info before actual register
dumps.

An example BUG() dump follows.

dump_stack: consolidate dump_stack() implementations and unify their behaviors

2013-05-01T00:04:02+00:00

Both dump_stack() and show_stack() are currently implemented by each
architecture.  show_stack(NULL, NULL) dumps the backtrace for the
current task as does dump_stack().  On some archs, dump_stack() prints
extra information - pid, utsname and so on - in addition to the
backtrace while the two are identical on other archs.

The usages in arch-independent code of the two functions indicate
show_stack(NULL, NULL) should print out bare backtrace while
dump_stack() is used for debugging purposes when something went wrong,
so it does make sense to print additional information on the task which
triggered dump_stack().

There's no reason to require archs to implement two separate but mostly
identical functions.  It leads to unnecessary subtle information.

This patch expands the dummy fallback dump_stack() implementation in
lib/dump_stack.c such that it prints out debug information (taken from
x86) and invokes show_stack(NULL, NULL) and drops arch-specific
dump_stack() implementations in all archs except blackfin.  Blackfin's
dump_stack() does something wonky that I don't understand.

Debug information can be printed separately by calling
dump_stack_print_info() so that arch-specific dump_stack()
implementation can still emit the same debug information.  This is used
in blackfin.

This patch brings the following behavior changes.

* On some archs, an extra level in backtrace for show_stack() could be
  printed.  This is because the top frame was determined in
  dump_stack() on those archs while generic dump_stack() can't do that
  reliably.  It can be compensated by inlining dump_stack() but not
  sure whether that'd be necessary.

* Most archs didn't use to print debug info on dump_stack().  They do
  now.

An example WARN dump follows.

v2: CPU number added to the generic debug info as requested by s390
    folks and dropped the s390 specific dump_stack().  This loses %ksp
    from the debug message which the maintainers think isn't important
    enough to keep the s390-specific dump_stack() implementation.

    dump_stack_print_info() is moved to kernel/printk.c from
    lib/dump_stack.c.  Because linkage is per objecct file,
    dump_stack_print_info() living in the same lib file as generic
    dump_stack() means that archs which implement custom dump_stack()
    - at this point, only blackfin - can't use dump_stack_print_info()
    as that will bring in the generic version of dump_stack() too.  v1
    The v1 patch broke build on blackfin due to this issue.  The build
    breakage was reported by Fengguang Wu.
