Based on an original patch from Roel Kluin <roel.kluin@gmail.com>. The write size calculated during regs and fpcr writes may currently go negative. Because size is unsigned, this will wrap, and our check for EFBIG will fail. Instead, do the check for EFBIG before subtracting from size.

Add macros for the GS (guest state) bit to the list of MSR bit definitions. On PowerPC cores that support embedded hypervisor mode, GS is cleared if the system is running in hypervisor state (and MSR[PR] is cleared), and set if it's running in guest state. See the Power ISA 2.06 specification for more information. Signed-off-by: Timur Tabi <timur@freescale.com> Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

When identify_cpu() is called a second time with a logical PVR, it only copies a subset of the cpu_spec fields so as to avoid overwriting the performance monitor fields that were initialized based on the real PVR. However some of the other, non performance monitor related fields are also not copied: * pvr_mask * pvr_value * mmu_features * machine_check The fact that pvr_mask is not copied can result in show_cpuinfo() showing the cpu as "unknown", if we override an unknown PVR with a logical one - as reported by Shaggy. So change the logic to copy all fields, and then put back the PMC related ones in the case that we're overwriting a real PVR with a logical one.

Setting G5's cpu frequency transition latency to CPUFREQ_ETERNAL stops ondemand governor from working. I measured the latency using sched_clock and haven't seen much higher than 11000ns, so I set this to 12000ns for my configuration. Possibly other configurations will be different? Ideally the generic code would be able to measure it in case the platform does not provide it. But this simple patch at least makes it throttle again.

CLONE_PARENT can fool the ->self_exec_id/parent_exec_id logic. If we re-use the old parent, we must also re-use ->parent_exec_id to make sure exit_notify() sees the right ->xxx_exec_id's when the CLONE_PARENT'ed task exits. Also, move down the "p->parent_exec_id = p->self_exec_id" thing, to place two different cases together.

This reverts commit e088e4c9. Removing the sysfs interface for p4-clockmod was flagged as a regression in bug 12826. Course of action: - Find out the remaining causes of overheating, and fix them if possible. ACPI should be doing the right thing automatically. If it isn't, we need to fix that. - mark p4-clockmod ui as deprecated - try again with the removal in six months. It's not really feasible to printk about the deprecation, because it needs to happen at all the sysfs entry points, which means adding a lot of strcmp("p4-clockmod".. calls to the core, which.. bleuch.

The Freescale Serial Synchronous Interface (SSI) is an audio device present on some Freescale SOCs. Various implementations of the SSI have a different transmit and receive FIFO depth, but are otherwise identical. To support these variations, add a new property fsl,fifo-depth to the SSI node that specifies the depth of the FIFOs. Also update the MPC8610 HPCD device tree with this property.

btrfs_tree_locked was being used to make sure a given extent_buffer was properly locked in a few places. But, it wasn't correct for UP compiled kernels. This switches it to using assert_spin_locked instead, and renames it to btrfs_assert_tree_locked to better reflect how it was really being used. Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>

So in acct_update_integrals we may end up with the following scenario: Between reading tsk->stime/tsk->utime and tsk->acct_timexpd an interrupt happens which updates accouting values. This causes acct_timexpd to be greater than the former stime + utime. The subsequent calculation of dtime = cputime_sub(time, tsk->acct_timexpd); will be negative and the division performed by cputime_to_jiffies(dtime) will generate an exception since the result won't fit into a 32 bit register. In order to fix this just always disable interrupts while accessing any of the accounting values.

On MPC837X CPUs Dual-Role USB isn't always available (for example DR USB pins can be muxed away to eSDHC). U-Boot adds status = "disabled" property into the DR USB nodes to indicate that we must not try to configure or probe Dual-Role USB, otherwise we'll break eSDHC support on targets with MPC837X CPUs.

The interrupt pending register is write 1 clear. If there are more than one external interrupts pending at the same time, acking the first interrupt by reading pending register then OR the corresponding bit and write back to pending register will also clear other interrupt pending bits. That will cause loss of interrupt. Signed-off-by: Da Yu <dayu@datangmobile.cn> Signed-off-by: Kumar Gala <galak@kernel.crashing.org>

The i2c_wait() function is using wait_event_interruptible_timeout() to wait for the I2C controller to signal that it has completed an I2C bus operation. If the process that causes the I2C operation terminated abruptly, the wait will be interrupted, returning an error. It is better to let the I2C operation finished before the process exits. It is safe to use wait_event_timeout() instead, because the timeout will allow the process to exit if the I2C bus hangs. It's also better to allow the I2C operation to finish, because unacknowledged I2C operations can cause the I2C bus to hang.

Impact: remove lots of lguest boot WARN_ON() when CONFIG_SPARSE_IRQ=y We now need to call irq_to_desc_alloc_cpu() before set_irq_chip_and_handler_name(), but we can't do that from init_IRQ (no kmalloc available). So do it as we use interrupts instead. Also means we only alloc for irqs we use, which was the intent of CONFIG_SPARSE_IRQ anyway.

Impact: fix lguest boot crash on modern Intel machines The code in early_init_intel does: if (c->x86 > 6 || (c->x86 == 6 && c->x86_model >= 0xd)) { u64 misc_enable; rdmsrl(MSR_IA32_MISC_ENABLE, misc_enable); And that rdmsr faults (not allowed from non-0 PL). We can get around this by mugging the family ID part of the cpuid. 5 seems like a good number. Of course, this is a hack (how very lguest!). We could just indicate that we don't support MSRs, or implement lguest_rdmst.
