[POWERPC] Fix xics set_affinity code

2007-10-02T01:48:14+00:00

On a POWER6 machine running 2.6.23-rc8 I sometimes see the following error:

xics_set_affinity: No online cpus in the mask 00000000,00000000,00000000,00000001 for irq 20

In a desperate attempt to get a changelog entry in 2.6.23, I took a look
into it.

It turns out we are passing a real and not a virtual irq into
get_irq_server.  This works for the case where hwirq < NR_IRQS and we
set virq = hwirq.  In my case however hwirq = 590082 and we try and
access irq_desc[590082], slightly past the end at 512 entries.

Lucky we ship lots of memory with our machines.

[POWERPC] mpc8349emitx.dts: Setup USB-DR for peripheral mode.

2007-09-28T15:26:48+00:00

Setup dr_mode for USB-DR to peripheral as the default (host mode) doesn't make
much sense for the mini-AB connector on the ITX board.

Peripheral mode is preferable to OTG as the fsl_usb2_udc.c driver doesn't yet
properly support it.

[POWERPC] Fix mpc834x USB-MPH configuration.

2007-09-28T15:26:35+00:00

mpc834x USB-MPH configuration got broken by commit
6f442560021aecf08658e26ed9a37e6928ef0fa1. The selection bits in SICRL
should be cleared rather than set to configure the USB MUXes for the MPH.

[POWERPC] Fix copy'n'paste typo in commproc.c

2007-09-28T15:25:16+00:00

The powerpc version of commproc.c exports cpm_dpram_addr twice
and cpm_dpram_phys not at all due to a typo. This patch fixes this
problem.

[POWERPC] spufs: fix mismerge, making context signal{1,2} files readable again

2007-09-26T09:47:07+00:00

The commit 8b6f50ef1d5cc86b278eb42bc91630fad455fb10 seems to have
been affected by a mismerge of a duplicate patch
(d054b36ffd302ec65aabec16a0c60ddd9e6b5a62) - both the
spufs_dir_contents and spufs_dir_nosched_contents have been given
write-only signal notification files.

This change reverts the spufs_dir_contents array to use the
readable signal notification file implementation.

[POWERPC] Ensure FULL_REGS on exec

2007-09-25T10:40:41+00:00

When PTRACE_O_TRACEEXEC is used, a ptrace call to fetch the registers at
the PTRACE_EVENT_EXEC stop (PTRACE_PEEKUSR) will oops in CHECK_FULL_REGS.
With recent versions, "gdb --args /bin/sh -c 'exec /bin/true'" and "run" at
the (gdb) prompt is sufficient to produce this.  I also have written an
isolated test case, see https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=301791#c15.

This change fixes the problem by clearing the low bit of pt_regs.trap in
start_thread so that FULL_REGS is true again.  This is correct since all of
the GPRs that "full" refers to are cleared in start_thread.

[POWERPC] Fix timekeeping on PowerPC 601

2007-09-19T05:26:34+00:00

Recent changes to the timekeeping code broke support for the PowerPC 601
processor which doesn't have the usual timebase facility but a slightly
different thing called (yuck) the RTC.

This fixes it, boot tested on an old 601 based PowerMac 7200.

[POWERPC] Don't expose clock vDSO functions when CPU has no timebase

2007-09-19T05:26:34+00:00

We forgot to remove the clock_gettime, clock_getres and get_tbfreq vDSO
calls on CPUs that have no timebase such as 601 or 403 (old CPUs that have
different mechanisms and for which the vDSO code will not work properly).
This fixes it.

[POWERPC] spusched: Fix null pointer dereference in find_victim

2007-09-19T05:26:29+00:00

find_victim can dereference a NULL pointer when iterating over the list
of victim spus because list_mutex only guarantees spu->ct to be stable,
but of course not to be non-NULL.

Also fix find_victim to not call spu_unbind_context without list_mutex
because that violates the above guarantee.
