This adds a kernel command line option "phyp_dump", which takes a 0/1 value for disabling/ enabling phyp_dump at boot time. Kdump can use this on cmdline (phyp_dump=0) to disable phyp-dump during boot when enabling itself. This will ensure only one dumping mechanism is active at any given time. Signed-off-by:

This tracks the size freed. For now it does a simple rudimentary calculation of the ranges freed. The idea is to keep it simple at the external shell script level and send in large chunks for now. Signed-off-by:

Check to see if there actually is data from a previously crashed kernel waiting. If so, allow user-space tools to grab the data (by reading /proc/kcore). When user-space finishes dumping a section, it must release that memory by writing to sysfs. For example, echo "0x40000000 0x10000000" > /sys/kernel/release_region will release 256MB starting at the 1GB. The released memory becomes free for general use. Signed-off-by:

The functions time_before, time_before_eq, time_after, and time_after_eq are more robust for comparing jiffies against other values. This implements usage of the time_after() macro, defined at linux/jiffies.h, which deals with wrapping correctly. Signed-off-by:

The hypervisor can look at the value in the wait_state_cycles field of the VPA for an estimate of how busy dedicated processors are. Currently, as the kernel never touches this field, we appear to be 100% busy. This records the duration the kernel is in powersave and passes that to the HV to provide a reasonable indication of utilisation. Signed-off-by:

Nathan Lynch authored
Prevailing practice for define_machine() in powerpc is to use the platform name when the platform has only one define_machine() statement, but maple uses "maple_md". This caused me some head-scratching when writing some new code that uses machine_is(maple). Use "maple" instead of "maple_md". There should not be any behavioral change -- fixup_maple_ide() calls machine_is(maple) but the body of the function is ifdef'd out. Signed-off-by:

My recent hack to allocate the hash table under 1GB on cell was poorly tested, *cough*. It turns out on blades with large amounts of memory we fail to allocate the hash table at all. This is because RTAS has been instantiated just below 768MB, and 0-x MB are used by the kernel, leaving no areas that are both large enough and also naturally-aligned. For the cell IOMMU hack the page tables must be under 2GB, so use that as the limit instead. This has been tested on real hardware and boots happily. Signed-off-by:

The iSeries viodasd drivers does some very strange things with scatterlists, one of these causing a BUG_ON to trigger when scatterlist debugging is enabled due to initializing the scatterlist with memset instead of sg_init_table(). This fixes it by using sg_init_table(). The rest of the stuff it does to that poor list is still pretty awful but it will work. I may look into fixing things in a nicer way some other time.

Currently, if drivers/macintosh/apm_emu is a module and the config doesn't have CONFIG_SUSPEND we get: ERROR: "pmu_batteries" [drivers/macintosh/apm_emu.ko] undefined! ERROR: "pmu_battery_count" [drivers/macintosh/apm_emu.ko] undefined! ERROR: "pmu_power_flags" [drivers/macintosh/apm_emu.ko] undefined! on PPC32. The variables aren't wrapped in '#if defined(CONFIG_SUSPEND)' so we probably shouldn't wrap the exports either. This removes the CONFIG_SUSPEND part of the export, which fixes compilation on ppc32.

The PMU backlight code would kick in during sleep/resume even on machines that use a different backlight method. This breaks sleep on some PowerBooks. This fixes it by adding a flag to indicate whether the backlight is controlled by the PMU, and testing that before trying to use the PMU to turn off the backlight during sleep. Signed-off-by:

A bogus test for unassigned resources that came from our 32-bit PCI code ended up being "merged" by my previous patch series, breaking some 64-bit setups where devices have legal resources ending at 0xffffffff. This fixes it by completely changing the test. We now test for res->start == 0, as the generic code expects, and we also only do so on platforms that don't have the PPC_PCI_PROBE_ONLY flag set, as there are cases of pSeries and iSeries where it could be a valid value and those can't reassign devices.

The pattern substitution rules were failing when used with zImage-dtb targets. If zImage-dtb.initrd was selected, the pattern substitution would generate "zImage.initrd-dtb" instead of "zImage-dtb.initrd" which caused the build to fail. This renames zImage-dtb to dtbImage to avoid the problem entirely. By not using the zImage prefix then is no potential for namespace collisions. Signed-off-by:

Some drivers (such as V4L2) have code that causes gcc to generate calls to __ucmpdi2 when compiling for 32-bit powerpc, which results in either a link-time error or a module that can't be loaded, as we don't currently have a __ucmpdi2. This adds one so these drivers can be used. Signed-off-by: -

Some BIOSes have PNP motherboard devices with resources that partially overlap PCI BARs. The PNP system driver claims these motherboard resources, which prevents the normal PCI driver from requesting them later. This patch disables the PNP resources that conflict with PCI BARs so they won't be claimed by the PNP system driver. Of course, this only works if PCI devices have already been enumerated. Currently this is the case because PCI devices are discovered before any PNP init via this path: acpi_pci_root_init() -> acpi_pci_root_add() -> pci_acpi_scan_root() -> pci_scan_bus_parented() -> pci_scan_child_bus() -> ... Avuton Olrich tested this and confirmed that it fixes his ALSA sound card (see http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/1/27/168).
