Without this patch, on an idle system I get: cpu-power-0:21.638 cpu-power-1:27.102 cpu-power-2:29.343 cpu-power-3:25.784 Total: 103.8W With this patch: cpu-power-0:11.730 cpu-power-1:17.185 cpu-power-2:18.547 cpu-power-3:17.528 Total: 65.0W If I lower HZ to 100, I can get it as low as: cpu-power-0:10.938 cpu-power-1:16.021 cpu-power-2:17.245 cpu-power-3:16.145 Total: 60.2W Another (older) Quad G5 went from 54W to 39W at HZ=250. Coming back out of Deep Nap takes 40-70 cycles longer than coming back from just Nap (which already takes quite a while). I don't think it'll be a performance issue (interrupt latency on an idle system), but in case someone does measurements feel free to report them.

Paul Mackerras authored
This implements a lazy strategy for disabling interrupts. This means that local_irq_disable() et al. just clear the 'interrupts are enabled' flag in the paca. If an interrupt comes along, the interrupt entry code notices that interrupts are supposed to be disabled, and clears the EE bit in SRR1, clears the 'interrupts are hard-enabled' flag in the paca, and returns. This means that interrupts only actually get disabled in the processor when an interrupt comes along. When interrupts are enabled by local_irq_enable() et al., the code sets the interrupts-enabled flag in the paca, and then checks whether interrupts got hard-disabled. If so, it also sets the EE bit in the MSR to hard-enable the interrupts. This has the potential to improve performance, and also makes it easier to make a kernel that can boot on iSeries and on other 64-bit machines, since this lazy-disable strategy is very similar to the soft-disable strategy that iSeries already uses. This version renames paca->proc_enabled to paca->soft_enabled, and changes a couple of soft-disables in the kexec code to hard-disables, which should fix the crash that Michael Ellerman saw. This doesn't yet use a reserved CR field for the soft_enabled and hard_enabled flags. This applies on top of Stephen Rothwell's patches to make it possible to build a combined iSeries/other kernel.

During boot we bring up all memory and cpu nodes. Normally a PCI device will be in one of these online nodes, however in some weird setups it may not. We have only seen this in the lab but we may as well check for the case and fallback to -1 (all nodes).

At the moment we rely on a cpu feature bit or a firmware property to detect altivec. If we dont have either of these and the cpu does in fact support altivec we can cause a panic from userspace. It seems safer to always send a signal if we manage to get an 0xf20 exception from userspace. Signed-off-by: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

The default configuration file for the MPC8349E-mITX reference board, mpc834x_itx_defconfig, did not include support for DOS partition table types. This support is necessary because the hard drive that comes with the ITX is formatted with this partition table type. Without this config option, no partitions on the drive can be mounted.

I need this patch to get a UML kernel to compile. This is with the kernel headers in FC6 which are automatically generated from the kernel tree. Some headers are missing but those files don't need them. At least it appears so since the resuling kernel works fine. Tested on x86-64.

It is silly to use non-static variable for writting zeroes to the file. And more seriously, foffset in core dump file dump function was incremented too much, so some parts of core dump were shifted by size of few phdrs and notes down, so although gdb was able to load that file, it did not make lot of sense - in my test case data pages were shifted down by about 900 bytes.

I could not get correct PCI Express bus number from the structure of acpi_object_extra. I always get zero as bus number regardless of bus location. I found that there is incorrect comparison with _HID (PNP0A08) in acpi/events/evrgnini.c and PCI Express _BBN method always fail. Therefore, we always get zero as PCI Express bus number. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7145Signed-off-by: Bob Moore <robert.moore@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Alexey Starikovskiy <alexey.y.starikovskiy@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>

The Linux group at Stratus Technologies has come across an issue with SCI routing under ACPI. We were bitten by this when we made an x86_64 platform whose BIOS provides an Interrupt Source Override for the SCI itself. Apparently the override has no effect for the System Control Interrupt, and this appears to be because of the way the SCI is setup in the ACPI code. It does not handle the case where busirq != gsi. The code that sets up the SCI routing assumes that bus irq == global irq. So there is simply no provision for telling it otherwise. The attached patch provides this mechanism. This patch provided by David Bulkow, was tested on an i386 platform, which does not use the SCI override, and also on an x86_64 platform which does use an override.
