A devtree compiler (dtc) generated devtree blob is "relocatable" and so does not contain a reserved_map entry for the blob itself. This means that if passed to Linux, Linux will not get lmb_reserve() the blob and it could be over. The following patch will explicitly reserve the "blob" as it was given to us and stops prom_init.c from creating a reserved mapping for the blob. NOTE: that the dtc/kexec should not generate the blob reservation entry. Although if they do, LMB reserver handles overlaps.

Change the pseries iommu init code to use the new of_parse_dma_window() to parse the ibm,dma-window and ibm,my-dma-window properties of pci and virtual device nodes. Also, clean up vio_build_iommu_table() a little. Tested on pseries, with both vio and pci devices.

This patch allows the compiler to catch any printf-like mismatches for udbg_printf(). After some brute force building I've only found issues with my own code and lparcfg.c It could break some developers, but IMHO that would be goodness.

We need to know the base address of the kdump kernel even when we're not a kdump kernel, so add a #define for it. Move the logic that sets the kdump kernelbase into kdump.h instead of page.h. Rename kdump_setup() to setup_kdump_trampoline() to make it clearer what it's doing, and add an empty definition for the !CRASH_DUMP case to avoid a Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <michael@ellerman.id.au> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

We currently do mem= handling in three seperate places. And as benh pointed out I wrote two of them. Now that we parse command line parameters earlier we can clean this mess up. Moving the parsing out of prom_init means the device tree might be allocated above the memory limit. If that happens we'd have to move it. As it happens we already have logic to do that for kdump, so just genericise it. This also means we might have reserved regions above the memory limit, if we do the bootmem allocator will blow up, so we have to modify lmb_enforce_memory_limit() to truncate the reserves as well. Tested on P5 LPAR, iSeries, F50, 44p. Tested moving device tree on P5 and 44p and F50. Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <michael@ellerman.id.au> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

Currently we have call parse_early_param() earliyish, but not really very early. In particular, it's not early enough to do things like mem=x or crashkernel=blah, which is annoying. So do it earlier. I've checked all the early param handlers, and none of them look like they should have any trouble with this. I haven't tested the booke_wdt ones though. On 32-bit we were doing the CONFIG_CMDLINE logic twice, so don't. Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <michael@ellerman.id.au> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

If you undefine all the early debugging options and then run make oldconfig, you don't get prompted to see if you want to enable any of them. This is annoying. AFAICT we can't do this just with a choice, because the choice is either optional, in which case we don't get prompted, or not in which case we _must_ select early debugging. So add a bool which controls whether we have early debugging at all, and then if that's enabled provide the choice. The extra bool will actually be useful in another patch I have lying around, so this is a win-win.

Linas Vepstas authored
When a PCI device driver does not support PCI error recovery, the powerpc/pseries code takes a walk through a branch of code that resets the failure counter. Because of this, if a broken PCI card is present, the kernel will attempt to reset it an infinite number of times. (This is annoying but mostly harmless: each reset takes about 10-20 seconds, and uses almost no CPU time). This patch preserves the failure count across resets.

Apple decided to copy some USB stupidity over to FireWire. The sector number returned by iPods from read_capacity is one too many. This may cause I/O errors, especially if the kernel is configured for EFI partition support. We use the same workaround as usb-storage but have to check for different model IDs. http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?t=114233262300001 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=187409 Acknowledgements: Diagnosis and therapy by Mathieu Chouquet-Stringer <ml2news@free.fr>, additional data about affected and unaffected Apple hardware from Vladimir Kotal, Sander De Graaf, Bryan Olmstead and Hugh Dixon.

Grand unification of the three types of workarounds we have so far. The "skip mode page 8" workaround is now limited to devices which pretend to be of TYPE_DISK instead of TYPE_RBC. This workaround is no longer enabled for Initio bridges. Patch update in anticipation of more workarounds: - Add module parameter "workarounds". - Deprecate parameter "force_inquiry_hack". - Compose the blacklist of a compound type for better readability and extensibility. - Remove a now unused #define.

From: "Angelo P. Castellani" <angelo.castellani+lkml@gmail.com> Using NewReno, if a sk_buff is timed out and is accounted as lost_out, it should also be removed from the sacked_out. This is necessary because recovery using NewReno fast retransmit could take up to a lot RTTs and the sk_buff RTO can expire without actually being really lost. left_out = sacked_out + lost_out in_flight = packets_out - left_out + retrans_out Using NewReno without this patch, on very large network losses, left_out becames bigger than packets_out + retrans_out (!!). For this reason unsigned integer in_flight overflows to 2^32 - something. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
