We weren't using the recommended sequence for putting the CPU into nap mode. When I changed the idle loop, for some reason 7447A cpus started hanging when we put them into nap mode. Changing to the recommended sequence fixes that. The complexity here is that the recommended sequence is a loop that keeps putting the cpu back into nap mode. Clearly we need some way to break out of the loop when an interrupt (external interrupt, decrementer, performance monitor) occurs. Here we use a bit in the thread_info struct to indicate that we need this, and the exception entry code notices this and arranges for the exception to return to the value in the link register, thus breaking out of the loop. We use a new `local_flags' field in the thread_info which we can alter without needing to use an atomic update sequence. The PPC970 has the same recommended sequence, so we do the same thing there too. This also fixes a bug in the kernel stack overflow handling code on 32-bit, since it was causing a value that we needed in a register to get trashed. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

We found that when the 'decrementer' is saved, the PPE saves the current time 'csa->suspend_time'. When restoring the 'decrementer', (Step 34) decrementer seems to be adjusted with the number of cycles th= at a spu thread has not been running. In that code it is missing a substract ('-') because 'delta_time' is assigned a not substracted(see bellow).

Compile the 32bit kernel with -mcpu=powerpc. This reduces the imagesize when a compiler is used that defaults to -mtune=power4. It inserts lots of nops to please the 64bit cpu instruction scheduling. But all these nops are not needed for 32bit kernels.

The iSeries Hypervisor only allows us to specify IRQ numbers up to 255 (it has a u8 field to pass it in). This patch allows platforms to specify a maximum to the virtual IRQ numbers we will use and has iSeries set that to 255. If not set, the maximum is NR_IRQS - 1 (as before).

Originally from Nick Piggin, just adapted to the newer branch. You can't check PageLRU without holding zone->lru_lock. The page release code can get away with it only because the page refcount is 0 at that point. Also, you can't reliably remove pages from the LRU unless the refcount is 0. Ever.

Thanks to Andrew for the good explanation of why this is so. akpm writes: If a page is under writeback and we remove it from pagecache, it's still going to get written to disk. But the VFS no longer knows about that page, nor that this page is about to modify disk blocks. So there might be scenarios in which those blocks-which-are-about-to-be-written-to get reused for something else. When writeback completes, it'll scribble on those blocks. This won't happen in ext2/ext3-style filesystems in normal mode because the page has buffers and try_to_release_page() will fail. But ext2 in nobh mode doesn't attach buffers at all - it just sticks the page in a BIO, finds some new blocks, points the BIO at those blocks and lets it rip. While that write IO's in flight, someone could truncate the file. Truncate won't block on the writeout because the page isn't in pagecache any more. So truncate will the free the blocks from the file under the page's feet. Then something else can reallocate those blocks. Then write data to them. Now, the original write completes, corrupting the filesystem. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@suse.de>

sbp2util_mark_command_completed takes a lock which was already taken by sbp2scsi_complete_all_commands. This is a regression in Linux 2.6.15. Reported by Kristian Harms at https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=187394 [ More complete commentary, as response to questions by Andrew: ] > This changes the call environment for all implementations of > ->Current_done(). Are they all safe to call under this lock? Short answer: Yes, trust me. ;-) Long answer: The done() callbacks are passed on to sbp2 from the SCSI stack along with each SCSI command via the queuecommand hook. The done() callback is safe to call in atomic context. So does Documentation/scsi/scsi_mid_low_api.txt say, and many if not all SCSI low-level handlers rely on this fact. So whatever this callback does, it is "self-contained" and it won't conflict with sbp2's internal ORB list handling. In particular, it won't race with the sbp2_command_orb_lock. Moreover, sbp2 already calls the done() handler with sbp2_command_orb_lock taken in sbp2scsi_complete_all_commands(). I admit this is ultimately no proof of correctness, especially since this portion of code introduced the spinlock recursion in the first place and we didn't realize it since this code's submission before 2.6.15 until now. (I have learned a lesson from this.) I stress-tested my patch on x86 uniprocessor with a preemptible SMP kernel (alas I have no SMP machine yet) and made sure that all code paths which involve the sbp2_command_orb_lock were gone through multiple times.

Patch from Pavel Pisa This patch adds support of i.MX/MX1 SD/MMC controller. It has been significantly redesigned from the original Sascha Hauer's version to support scatter-gather DMA, to conform to latest Pierre Ossman's and Russell King's MMC-SD Linux 2.6.x infrastructure. The handling of all events has been moved to the softirq context and is designed with no busy-looping in mind. Unfortunately some controller bugs has to be overcome by limited looping about 2-20 usec but these are observed only for initial card recognition phase. There are still some missing/missed IRQs problems under heavy load. Help of somebody with access to the full SDHC design information is probably necessary. Regenerated against 2.6.16-git-060402 to solve clash with other patches.
