When lmo commit 4ef893e0515e8bf336dfbd200884f244869fbb43 was merged to kernel.org as e73ea273 patch happily applied the IP27 segment to IP22. f63f36c18b11e166d0f362ac04dbcd7e6ea23f9e did fix the effects partially - and with a wrong log message.

It turns out that the linker warnings on 64-bit powerpc about "section blah exceeds stub group size" were being triggered by conditional branches in head_64.S branching to global symbols, whether in head_64.S or in other files. This eliminates the warnings by making some global symbols in head_64.S no longer global, and by rearranging some branches. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> [ Yee-haa.

Since the "mask" bit is in the low word, when we write a new entry, we need to write the high word first, before we potentially unmask it. The exception is when we actually want to mask the interrupt, in which case we want to write the low word first to make sure that the high word doesn't change while the interrupt routing is still active.

This is preparation for fixing the ordering of the accesses that got broken by the commit cf4c6a2f when factoring out the "common" io apic routing entry accesses. Move the accessor function (that were only used by io_apic.c) out of a header file, and use proper memory-mapped accesses rather than making up our own "volatile" pointers.

ahci_softreset() used to use ahci_tf_read() which reads D2H_REG area to check for the Status register. However, this area is zeroed on initialization and not set by initial signature FIS. Replace it with ahci_check_status(). This bug prevented CLO code from being activated whenever BSY and/or DRQ is set prior to softreset. This fix makes AHCI_FLAG_RESET_NEEDS_CLO flag redundant.

The alignment exception used to only check the exception table for -EFAULT, not for other errors. That opens an oops window if we can coerce the kernel into getting an alignment exception for other reasons in what would normally be a user-protected accessor, which can be done via some of the futex ops. This fixes it by always checking the exception tables. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

On powerpc, probing on emulate_step function will crash 2.6.18.1 when it is triggered. When kprobe is triggered, emulate_step() is on its kernel path and will cause recursive kprobe fault. And branch_taken() is called in emulate_step(). This disallows kprobes on both of them. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

If mmiowb() is always used prior to releasing spinlock as Doc suggests, then it's safe against preemption; but I'm not convinced that's always the case. If preemption occurs between sync and get_paca()->io_sync = 0, I believe there's no problem. But in the unlikely event that gcc does the store relative to another register than r13 (as it did with current), then there's a small danger of setting another cpu's io_sync to 0, after it had just set it to 1. Rewrite ppc64 mmiowb to prevent that. The remaining io_sync assignments in io.h all get_paca()->io_sync = 1, which is harmless even if preempted to the wrong cpu (the context switch itself syncs); and those in spinlock.h are while preemption is disabled.

Checking source for other get_paca()->field preemption dangers found that open_high_hpage_areas does a structure copy into its paca while preemption is enabled: unsafe however gcc accomplishes it. Just remove that copy: it's done safely afterwards by on_each_cpu, as in open_low_hpage_areas.

Repeated -j20 kernel builds on a G5 Quad running an SMP PREEMPT kernel would often collapse within a day, some exec failing with "Bad address". In each case examined, load_elf_binary was doing a kernel_read, but generic_file_aio_read's access_ok saw current->thread.fs.seg as USER_DS instead of KERNEL_DS. objdump of filemap.o shows gcc 4.1.0 emitting "mr r5,r13 ... ld r9,416(r5)" here for get_paca()->__current, instead of the expected and much more usual "ld r9,416(r13)"; I've seen other gcc4s do the same, but perhaps not gcc3s. So, if the task is preempted and rescheduled on a different cpu in between the mr and the ld, r5 will be looking at a different paca_struct from the one it's now on, pick up the wrong __current, and perhaps the wrong seg. Presumably much worse could happen elsewhere, though that split is rare. Other architectures appear to be safe (x86_64's read_pda is more limiting than get_paca), but ppc64 needs to force "current" into one instruction.

The 10Gigabit ethernet device drivers appear to be able to chew up all 256MB of TCE mappings on pSeries systems, as evidenced by numerous error messages: iommu_alloc failed, tbl c0000000010d5c48 vaddr c0000000d875eff0 npages 1 Some experimentation indicates that this is essentially because one 1500 byte ethernet MTU gets mapped as a 64K DMA region when the large 64K pages are enabled. Thus, it doesn't take much to exhaust all of the available DMA mappings for a high-speed card. This patch changes the iommu allocator to work with its own unique, distinct page size. Although the patch is long, its actually quite simple: it just #defines a distinct IOMMU_PAGE_SIZE and then uses this in all the places that matter. As a side effect, it also dramatically improves network performance on platforms with H-calls on iommu translation inserts/removes (since we no longer call it 16 times for a 1500 bytes packet when the iommu HW is still 4k). In the future, we might want to make the IOMMU_PAGE_SIZE a variable in the iommu_table instance, thus allowing support for different HW page sizes in the iommu itself.
