The patch below works around a minor bug found in the UART of the remote management card used in many HP ia64 and parisc servers (aka the Diva UARTs). The problem is that the UART does not reassert the THRE interrupt if it has been previously cleared and the IIR THRI bit is re-enabled. This can produce a very annoying failure mode when used as a serial console, allowing a boot/reboot to hang indefinitely until an RX interrupt kicks it into working again (ie. an unattended reboot could stall). To solve this problem, a backup timer is introduced that runs alongside the standard interrupt driven mechanism. This timer wakes up periodically, checks for a hang condition and gets characters moving again. This backup mechanism is only enabled if the UART is detected as having this problem, so systems without these UARTs will have no additional overhead. This version of the patch incorporates previous comments from Pavel and removes races in the bug detection code. The test is now done before the irq linking to prevent races with interrupt handler clearing the THRE interrupt. Short delays and syncs are also added to ensure the device is able to update register state before the result is tested. Aristeu says: this was tested on the following HP machines and solved the problem: rx2600, rx2620, rx1600 and rx1620s. hpa says: I have seen this same bug in soft UART IP from "a major vendor."

Fix a minor bug in mkcompile_h. As one can see, the current locale is used while getting the version of gcc. This produces problems when a locale other than C or en_US is used. As an example, my /proc/version contains Turkish characters in iso-8859-9 encoding. This patch fixes this issue by making sure that the C locale is used to get gcc's version.

On ia64, drivers/base/dma-mapping.c doesn't build because it calls dma_alloc_noncoherent() and dma_free_noncoherent(), which appear to be terminally broken; the calls end up generating errors like drivers/base/dma-mapping.c: In function 'dmam_noncoherent_release': drivers/base/dma-mapping.c:32: error: 'struct ia64_machine_vector' has no member named 'platform_dma_free_coherent' because the multiple levels of macro expansion in <asm/dma-mapping.h> and <asm/machvec.h> end up turning a call to dma_free_noncoherent() into ia64_mv.platform_dma_free_coherent (instead of the intended ia64_mv.dma_free_coherent). This patch fixes this by converting dma_{alloc,free}_noncoherent() into inline functions that call the corresponding coherent functions, instead of trying to do this with macros.

udbg_early_init() is a function used on 64 bit systems, which initializes whichever early udbg backend is configured. This function is not called on 32-bit, however if btext early debug is enabled it does have an explicit, inline, #ifdef-ed assignment performing analagous initialization. This patch makes things more uniform by folding the btext initialization as an option into udbg_early_init() and calling that from the 32-bit setup path.

This can be used for serial ports that are connected to an OF platform bus but are not autodetected by the lecacy serial support. It will automatically take over devices that come from the legacy serial detection, which usually is only one device. In some cases, rtas may be set up to use the serial port in the firmware, which allows easier debugging before probing the serial ports. In this case, the "used-by-rtas" property must be set by the firmware. This patch also adds code to the legacy serial driver to check for this.

Move all the pseries kexec code into one file, platforms/pseries/kexec.c Provide helpers for setting up ppc_md.kexec_cpu_down, so that we don't have to have #ifdef CONFIG_KEXEC in setup.c Move the initialisation of the ppc_md kexec callbacks into an init routine. This is well and truly early enough to cause no change in behaviour, we can't kexec until userspace has given us a kernel to kexec into.

Following the example of platforms/pasemi, consolidate a couple of tiny header files in platforms/pseries into pseries.h.

Somewhere in the rewrite of the work queues my cleanup of SAK handling got broken. Maybe I didn't retest it properly or possibly the API was changing so fast I missed something. Regardless currently triggering a SAK now generates an ugly BUG_ON and kills the kernel. Thanks to Alexey Dobriyan <adobriyan@openvz.org> for spotting this. This modifies the use of SAK_work to initialize it when the data structure it resides in is initialized, and to simply call schedule_work when we need to generate a SAK. I update both data structures that have a SAK_work member for consistency. All of the old PREPARE_WORK calls that are now gone. If we call schedule_work again before it has processed it has generated the first SAK it will simply ignore the duplicate schedule_work request. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

When I post a patch (commit f431baa5), I just tried to not change behavior of existing codes, but it seems dec/int-handler.S had been broken since its previous commit 937a8015. The caller of plat_irq_dispatch do setup/restore TI_REGS($28), so dec's plat_irq_dispatch should not do it, and there is no need to adjust RA.
