powerpc: Fix system calls on Cell entered with XER.SO=1

It turns out that on Cell, on a kernel with CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING
= y, if a program sets the SO (summary overflow) bit in the XER and
then does a system call, the SO bit in CR0 will be set on return
regardless of whether the system call detected an error.  Since CR0.SO
is used as the error indication from the system call, this means that
all system calls appear to fail.

The reason is that the workaround for the timebase bug on Cell uses a
compare instruction.  With CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING = y, the
ACCOUNT_CPU_USER_ENTRY macro reads the timebase, so we end up doing a
compare instruction, which copies XER.SO to CR0.SO.  Since we were
doing this in the system call entry patch after clearing CR0.SO but
before saving the CR, this meant that the saved CR image had CR0.SO
set if XER.SO was set on entry.

This fixes it by moving the clearing of CR0.SO to after the
ACCOUNT_CPU_USER_ENTRY call in the system call entry path.

powerpc/mpic: Don't reset affinity for secondary MPIC on boot

Kexec/kdump currently fails on the IBM QS2x blades when the kexec happens
on a CPU other than the initial boot CPU.  It turns out that this is the
result of mpic_init trying to set affinity of each interrupt vector to the
current boot CPU.

As far as I can tell,  the same problem is likely to exist on any
secondary MPIC, because they have to deliver interrupts to the first
output all the time. There are two potential solutions for this: either
not set up affinity at all for secondary MPICs, or assume that a single
CPU output is connected to the upstream interrupt controller and hardcode
affinity to that per architecture.

This patch implements the second approach, defaulting to the first output.
Currently, all known secondary MPICs are routed to their upstream port
using the first destination, so we hardcode that.

powerpc/cell/axon-msi: Retry on missing interrupt

The MSI capture logic for the axon bridge can sometimes
lose interrupts in case of high DMA and interrupt load,
when it signals an MSI interrupt to the MPIC interrupt
controller while we are already handling another MSI.

Each MSI vector gets written into a FIFO buffer in main
memory using DMA, and that DMA access is normally flushed
by the actual interrupt packet on the IOIF.  An MMIO
register in the MSIC holds the position of the last
entry in the FIFO buffer that was written.  However,
reading that position does not flush the DMA, so that
we can observe stale data in the buffer.

In a stress test, we have observed the DMA to arrive
up to 14 microseconds after reading the register.

This patch works around this problem by retrying the
access to the FIFO buffer.

We can reliably detect the conditioning by writing
an invalid MSI vector into the FIFO buffer after
reading from it, assuming that all MSIs we get
are valid.  After detecting an invalid MSI vector,
we udelay(1) in the interrupt cascade for up to
100 times before giving up.

I've reproduced this on 2.6.27.7.  It is caused by commit
8f64e1f2d1e09267ac926e15090fd505c1c0cbcb ("powerpc: Reserve in bootmem
lmb reserved regions that cross NUMA nodes").

The problem is that Jon took a loop which was (in pseudocode):

for_each_node(nid)
NODE_DATA(nid) = careful_alloc(nid);
setup_bootmem(nid);
reserve_node_bootmem(nid);

and broke it up into:

for_each_node(nid)
NODE_DATA(nid) = careful_alloc(nid);
setup_bootmem(nid);
for_each_node(nid)
reserve_node_bootmem(nid);

The issue comes in when the 'careful_alloc()' is called on a node with
no memory.  It falls back to using bootmem from a previously-initialized
node.  But, bootmem has not yet been reserved when Jon's patch is
applied.  It gives back bogus memory (0xc000000000000000) and pukes
later in boot.

The following patch collapses the loop back together.  It also breaks
the mark_reserved_regions_for_nid() code out into a function and adds
some comments.  I think a huge part of introducing this bug is because
for loop was too long and hard to read.

The actual bug fix here is the:

+ if (end_pfn <= node->node_start_pfn ||
+     start_pfn >= node_end_pfn)
+ continue;

b) HiSax_inithardware() can go __init

checkcard(i, id, NULL, hisax_d_if->owner, hisax_cs_setup_card);

* hisax_cs_setup_card() is __devinit
* hisax_register() is not
* hisax_cs_setup_card() is a switch from hell, calling a lot of
  setup_some_weirdcard() depending on card->typ.  _These_ are also
  __devinit.

   However, in hisax_register() we have card->typ equal to

Russell King [Thu, 27 Nov 2008 11:13:58 +0000 (11:13 +0000)]
Allow architectures to override copy_user_highpage()

With aliasing VIPT cache support, the ARM implementation of
clear_user_page() and copy_user_page() sets up a temporary kernel space
mapping such that we have the same cache colour as the userspace page.
This avoids having to consider any userspace aliases from this operation.

However, when highmem is enabled, kmap_atomic() have to setup mappings.
The copy_user_highpage() and clear_user_highpage() call these functions
before delegating the copies to copy_user_page() and clear_user_page().

The effect of this is that each of the *_user_highpage() functions setup
their own kmap mapping, followed by the *_user_page() functions setting
up another mapping.  This is rather wasteful.

Thankfully, copy_user_highpage() can be overriden by architectures by
defining __HAVE_ARCH_COPY_USER_HIGHPAGE.  However, replacement of
clear_user_highpage() is more difficult because its inline definition
is not conditional.  It seems that you're expected to define
__HAVE_ARCH_ALLOC_ZEROED_USER_HIGHPAGE and provide a replacement
__alloc_zeroed_user_highpage() implementation instead.

The allocation itself is fine, so we don't want to override that.  What
we really want to do is to override clear_user_highpage() with our own
version which doesn't kmap_atomic() unnecessarily.

Other VIPT architectures (PARISC and SH) would also like to override
this function as well.

jiffies_timer_cc is a local variable in arch/s390/kernel/time.c and only used
for sched_clock and monotonic clock. For historical reasons there is an offset
on that value. With todays code this offset is unnecessary. By removing that
offset we can get a sched_clock which returns the nanoseconds after time_init.
This improves CONFIG_PRINTK_TIME.

Since sched_clock is the only user, I have also renamed jiffies_timer_cc to
sched_clock_base_cc. In addition, the local variable init_timer_cc is redundant
and can be romved as well.

16 years ago[S390] fix system call parameter functions.

[S390] fix system call parameter functions.

syscall_get_nr() currently returns a valid result only if the call
chain of the traced process includes do_syscall_trace_enter(). But
collect_syscall() can be called for any sleeping task, the result of
syscall_get_nr() in general is completely bogus.

To make syscall_get_nr() work for any sleeping task the traps field
in pt_regs is replace with svcnr - the system call number the process
is executing. If svcnr == 0 the process is not on a system call path.

The syscall_get_arguments and syscall_set_arguments use regs->gprs[2]
for the first system call parameter. This is incorrect since gprs[2]
may have been overwritten with the system call number if the call

5814f737e1cd2cfa2893badd62189acae3e1e1fd, "ACPI: thinkpad-acpi:
attempt to preserve fan state on resume".

It is possible for fan_suspend() to fail to properly initialize
fan_control_desired_level as required by fan_resume(), resulting on
the fan always being set to level 7 on resume if the user didn't
touch the fan controller.

In order to get fan sleep/resume handling to work right:

1. Fix the fan_suspend handling of the T43 firmware quirk. If it is
still undefined, we didn't touch the fan yet and that means we have no
business doing it on resume.

2. Store the fan level on its own variable to avoid any possible
issues with hijacking fan_control_desired_level (which isn't supposed
to have anything other than 0-7 in it, anyway).

3. Change the fan_resume code to me more straightforward to understand
(although we DO optimize the boolean logic there, otherwise it looks
disgusting).

4. Add comments to help understand what the code is supposed to be
doing.

5. Change fan_set_level to be less strict about how auto and
full-speed modes are requested.

This patch is part of a larger patch series which will remove
the "char bus_id[20]" name string from struct device. The device

must be used. If your code uses static kobjects, which it shouldn't
do, "const char *init_name" can be used to statically provide the
name the registered device should have. At registration time, the
init_name field is cleared, to enforce the use of dev_name(dev) to
access the device name at a later time.

We need to get rid of all occurrences of bus_id in the entire tree
to be able to enable the new interface. Please apply this patch,
and possibly convert any remaining remaining occurrences of bus_id.

We want to submit a patch to -next, which will remove bus_id from
"struct device", to find the remaining pieces to convert, and finally
switch over to the new api, which will remove the 20 bytes array
and does no longer have a size limitation.

parisc: fix kernel crash when unwinding a userspace process

Any user on existing parisc 32- and 64bit-kernels can easily crash
the kernel and as such enforce a DSO.
A simple testcase is available here:
        http://gsyprf10.external.hp.com/~deller/crash.tgz

The problem is introduced by the fact, that the handle_interruption()
crash handler calls the show_regs() function, which in turn tries to
unwind the stack by calling parisc_show_stack().  Since the stack contains
userspace addresses, a try to unwind the stack is dangerous and useless
and leads to the crash.

The fix is trivial: For userspace processes
a) avoid to unwind the stack, and
b) avoid to resolve userspace addresses to kernel symbol names.

While touching this code, I converted print_symbol() to %pS
printk formats and made parisc_show_stack() static.

An initial patch for this was written by Kyle McMartin back in August:
