The msi platform device driver was abusing dev.platform_data for its platform_driver_data. Use the correct pointer for storage. Platform_data is supposed to be for platforms to communicate to drivers parameters that are not otherwise discoverable. Its lifetime matches the platform_device not the platform device driver. It is generally not needed for drivers that only support systems with device trees.

It was never called because the host is always IRQ_HOST_MAP_LEGACY. And what it purported to do was mask the interrupt (which will already have happend if we shutdown the interrupt), then synchronise_irq and clear the chip pointer, both of which will have been be done by the caller were we to call unmap on a legacy irq.

If for some reason the code incrorectly calls the wrong function to manage the revmap, not only should we warn, we should take action. However, in the paths we expect to be taken every delivered interrupt change to WARN_ON_ONCE. Use the if (WARN_ON(x)) format to get the unlikely for free.

Since the generic irq code uses a radix tree for sparse interrupts, the initcall ordering has been changed to initialize radix trees before irqs. We no longer need to defer creating revmap radix trees to the arch_initcall irq_late_init. Also, the kmem caches are allocated so we don't need to use zalloc_maybe_bootmem.

Since we already have a special case in map to set the ipi handler, use the desired flow. If we don't find an ics to handle the interrupt complain instead of returning 0 without having set a chip or handler.

Since there are only 4 messages, we can replace the atomic bit set (which uses atomic load reserve and store conditional sequence) with a byte stores to seperate bytes. We still have to perform a load reserve and store conditional sequence to avoid loosing messages on reception but we can do that with a single call to xchg. The do {} while and __BIG_ENDIAN specific mask testing was chosen by looking at the generated asm code. On gcc-4.4, the bit masking becomes a simple bit mask and test of the register returned from xchg without storing and loading the value to the stack like attempts with a union of bytes and an int (or worse, loading single bit constants from the constant pool into non-voliatle registers that had to be preseved on the stack). The do {} while avoids an unconditional branch to the end of the loop to test the entry / repeat condition of a while loop and instead optimises for the expected single iteration of the loop. We have a full mb() at the beginning to cover ordering between send, ipi, and receive so we can use xchg_local and forgo the further acquire and release barriers of xchg.

Compile the new smp ipi mux and demux code only if a platform will make use of it. The new config is selected as required. The new cause_ipi smp op is only available conditionally to point out configs where the select is required; this makes setting the op an immediate fail instead of a deferred unresolved symbol at link. This also creates a new config for power surge powermac upgrade support that can be disabled in expert mode but is default on. I also removed the depends / default y on CONFIG_XICS since it is selected by PSERIES. Signed-off-by: Milton Miller <miltonm@bga.com> Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

Consolidate the mux and demux of ipi messages into smp.c and call a new smp_ops callback to actually trigger the ipi. The powerpc architecture code is optimised for having 4 distinct ipi triggers, which are mapped to 4 distinct messages (ipi many, ipi single, scheduler ipi, and enter debugger). However, several interrupt controllers only provide a single software triggered interrupt that can be delivered to each cpu. To resolve this limitation, each smp_ops implementation created a per-cpu variable that is manipulated with atomic bitops. Since these lines will be contended they are optimialy marked as shared_aligned and take a full cache line for each cpu. Distro kernels may have 2 or 3 of these in their config, each taking per-cpu space even though at most one will be in use. This consolidation removes smp_message_recv and replaces the single call actions cases with direct calls from the common message recognition loop. The complicated debugger ipi case with its muxed crash handling code is moved to debug_ipi_action which is now called from the demux code (instead of the multi-message action calling smp_message_recv). I put a call to reschedule_action to increase the likelyhood of correctly merging the anticipated scheduler_ipi() hook coming from the scheduler tree; that single required call can be inlined later. The actual message decode is a copy of the old pseries xics code with its memory barriers and cache line spacing, augmented with a per-cpu unsigned long based on the book-e doorbell code. The optional data is set via a callback from the implementation and is passed to the new cause-ipi hook along with the logical cpu number. While currently only the doorbell implemntation uses this data it should be almost zero cost to retrieve and pass it -- it adds a single register load for the argument from the same cache line to which we just completed a store and the register is dead on return from the call. I extended the data element from unsigned int to unsigned long in case some other code wanted to associate a pointer. The doorbell check_self is replaced by a call to smp_muxed_ipi_resend, conditioned on the CPU_DBELL feature. The ifdef guard could be relaxed to CONFIG_SMP but I left it with BOOKE for now. Also, the doorbell interrupt vector for book-e was not calling irq_enter and irq_exit, which throws off cpu accounting and causes code to not realize it is running in interrupt context. Add the missing calls. Signed-off-by: Milton Miller <miltonm@bga.com> Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

I have no idea if the beat hypervisor supports multiple cpus in a partition, but the code has not been touched since these stubs were added in February of 2007 except to move them in April of 2008.

Replace all remaining callers of alloc_maybe_bootmem with zalloc_maybe_bootmem. The callsite in pci_dn is followed with a memset to clear the memory, and not zeroing at the other callsites in the celleb fake pci code could lead to following uninitialized memory as pointers or even freeing said pointers on error paths.

The only user of MSG_ALL_BUT_SELF in the whole kernel tree is powerpc, and it only uses it to start the debugger. Both debuggers always call smp_send_debugger_break with MSG_ALL_BUT_SELF, and only mpic can do anything more optimal than a loop over all online cpus, but all message passing implementations have to code for this special delivery target. Convert smp_send_debugger_break to take void and loop calling the smp_ops message_pass function for each of the other cpus in the online cpumask. Use raw_smp_processor_id() because we are either entering the debugger or trying to start kdump and the additional warning it not useful were it to trigger.

mpic_physmask was looping NR_CPUS times over a mask that was passed as a u32.

We should not set cpus above nr_cpu_ids to possible. While we will trigger a warning with CONFIG_CPUMASK_DEBUG, even then the mask initializers will set the bits beyond what the iterators check and cause nr_cpu_ids to increase. Respecting nr_cpu_ids during setup will allow us to use it in our initial paca allocation. It can be reduced from NR_CPUS by the existing early param nr_cpus=, which was added in 2b633e3f (smp: Use nr_cpus= to set nr_cpu_ids early). We already call parse_early_parms between finding the command line and allocating the pacas.

9cb82f2f (Make iSeries spin on __secondary_hold_spinloop, like pSeries) added a load of current_set but this load was repeated later and we don't even have the paca yet. It also checked __secondary_hold_spinloop with a 32 bit compare instead of a 64 bit compare. b6f6b98a (Don't spin on sync instruction at boot time) missed the copy of the startup code in iseries. 1426d5a3 (Dynamically allocate pacas) doesn't allow for pacas to be less than lppacas and recalculated the paca location from the cpu id in r0 every time through the secondary loop. Various revisions over time made the comments on conditional branches confusing with respect to being a hold loop or forward progress Mostly in-order description of the changes: Replicate the few lines of code saved by the ugly scoped ifdef CONFIG_SMP in the secondary loop between yielding on UP and marking time with the hypervisor on SMP. Always compile the iseries_secondary_yield loop and use it if the cpu id is above nr_cpu_ids. Change all forward progress paths to be forward branches to the next numerical label. Assign a label to all loops. Move all sync instructions from the loops to the forward progress path. Wait to load current_set until paca is set to go. Move the iseries_secondary_smp_loop label to cover the whole spin loop. Add HMT_MEDIUM when we make forward progress.

Starting with 1426d5a3 (powerpc: Dynamically allocate pacas) we free the memory for pacas beyond cpu_possible, but we failed to update the loop the secondary cpus use to find their paca. If the system has running cpu threads for which the kernel did not allocate a paca for they will search the memory that was freed. For instance this could happen when the device tree for a kdump kernel was not updated after a cpu hotplug, or the kernel is running with more cpus than the kernel was configured. Since c1854e00 (powerpc: Set nr_cpu_ids early and use it to free PACAs) we set nr_cpu_ids before telling the cpus to advance, so use that to limit the search. We can't reference nr_cpu_ids without CONFIG_SMP because it is defined as 1 instead of a memory location, but any extra threads should be sent to kexec_wait in that case anyways, so make that explicit and remove the search loop for UP. Note to stable: The fix also requires c1854e00 (powerpc: Set nr_cpu_ids early and use it to free PACAs) to function. Also 9d07bc84 (Properly handshake CPUs going out of boot spin loop) affects the second chunk, specifically the branch target was 3b before and is 4b after that patch, and there was a blank line before the #ifdef CONFIG_SMP that was removed Cc: <stable@kernel.org> # .34.x: c1854e00 powerpc: Set nr_cpu_ids early Cc: <stable@kernel.org> # .34.x Signed-off-by: Milton Miller <miltonm@bga.com> Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

Commit 1fc711f7 (powerpc/kexec: Fix race in kexec shutdown) moved the write to signal the cpu had exited the kernel from before the transition to real mode in kexec_smp_wait to kexec_wait. Unfornately it missed that kexec_wait is used both by cpus leaving the kernel and by secondary slave cpus that were not allocated a paca for what ever reason -- they could be beyond nr_cpus or not described in the current device tree for whatever reason (for example, kexec-load was not refreshed after a cpu hotplug operation). Cpus coming through that path they will write to paca[NR_CPUS] which is beyond the space allocated for the paca data and overwrite memory not allocated to pacas but very likely still real mode accessable). Move the write back to kexec_smp_wait, which is used only by cpus that found their paca, but after the transition to real mode.

When we swtich to direct dma ops, we set the dma data union to have the dma offset. When we switch back to iommu table ops because of a later dma_set_mask, we need to restore the iommu table pointer. Without this change, crashes have been observed on kexec where (for reasons still being investigated) we fall back to a 32-bit dma mask on a particular device and then panic because the table pointer is not valid. The easiset way to find this value is to call pci_dma_dev_setup_pSeriesLP which will search up the pci tree until it finds the node with the table.

After looking at our system call path, Mary Brown suggested that we should put all mfspr SRR* instructions before any mtspr SRR*. To test this I used a very simple null syscall (actually getppid) testcase at http://ozlabs.org/~anton/junkcode/null_syscall.c I tested with the following changes against the pseries_defconfig: CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING=n CONFIG_AUDIT=n to remove the overhead of virtual CPU accounting and syscall auditing. POWER6: baseline: mean = 757.2 cycles sd = 2.108 modified: mean = 759.1 cycles sd = 2.020 POWER7: baseline: mean = 411.4 cycles sd = 0.138 modified: mean = 404.1 cycles sd = 0.109 So we have 1.77% improvement on POWER7 which looks significant. The POWER6 suggest a 0.25% slowdown, but the results are within 1 standard deviation and may be in the noise.

Future releases of fimrware will enforce a requirement that DTL buffers do not cross a 4k boundary. Commit 127493d5 satisfies this requirement for CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING=y kernels, but if !CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING && CONFIG_DTL=y, the current code will fail at dtl registration time. Fix this by making the kmem cache from 127493d5 visible outside of setup.c and using the same cache in both dtl.c and setup.c. This requires a bit of reorganization to ensure ordering of the kmem cache and buffer allocations. Note: Since firmware now limits the size of the buffer, I made dtl_buf_entries read-only in debugfs. Tested with upcoming firmware with the 4 combinations of CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING and CONFIG_DTL.

When we kexec we look for a particular property added by the first kernel, "linux,direct64-ddr-window-info", per-device where we already have set up dynamic dma windows. The current code, though, wasn't initializing the size of this property and thus when we kexec'd, we would find the property but read uninitialized memory resulting in garbage ddw values for the kexec'd kernel and panics. Fix this by setting the size at enable_ddw() time and ensuring that the size of the found property is valid at dupe_ddw_if_kexec() time.
