      MIPS: Initialise MAARs on secondary CPUs · e060f6ed
      Paul Burton authored 
      

MAARs should be initialised on each CPU (or rather, core) in the system
in order to achieve consistent behaviour & performance. Previously they
have only been initialised on the boot CPU which leads to performance
problems if tasks are later scheduled on a secondary CPU, particularly
if those tasks make use of unaligned vector accesses where some CPUs
don't handle any cases in hardware for non-speculative memory regions.
Fix this by recording the MAAR configuration from the boot CPU and
applying it to secondary CPUs as part of their bringup.

      MIPS: print MAAR configuration during boot · 651ca7f4
      Paul Burton authored 
      

Verifying that the MAAR configuration is as expected is useful when
debugging the performance of a system. Print out the memory regions
configured via MAAR along with their attributes.

      MIPS: mm: compile maar_init unconditionally · def3ab5d
      Paul Burton authored 
      

maar_init was previously only compiled when CONFIG_NEED_MULTIPLE_NODES
was not set, which has been fine since it is only called from the
standard implementation of mem_init which has the same condition. In
preparation for calling it from the SMP startup code on secondary CPUs,
move maar_init outside of the #ifndef such that it is always compiled.

      MIPS: CM: Provide a function to map from CPU to VP ID. · 7573b94e
      Paul Burton authored 
      

The VP ID of a given CPU may not match up with the CPU number used by
Linux. For example, if the width of the VP part of the VP ID is wider
than log2(number of VPs per core) and the system has multiple cores then
this will be the case. Alternatively, if a pre-r6 system implements the
MT ASE with multiple VPEs per core and Linux is built without support
for the MT ASE then the numbers won't match up either. Provide a
function to convert from CPU number to VP ID.

      dma-mapping: consolidate dma_set_mask · 452e06af
      Christoph Hellwig authored 
      

Almost everyone implements dma_set_mask the same way, although some time
that's hidden in ->set_dma_mask methods.

This patch consolidates those into a common implementation that either
calls ->set_dma_mask if present or otherwise uses the default
implementation.  Some architectures used to only call ->set_dma_mask
after the initial checks, and those instance have been fixed to do the
full work.  h8300 implemented dma_set_mask bogusly as a no-ops and has
been fixed.

Unfortunately some architectures overload unrelated semantics like changing
the dma_ops into it so we still need to allow for an architecture override
for now.

      dma-mapping: consolidate dma_supported · ee196371
      Christoph Hellwig authored 
      

Most architectures just call into ->dma_supported, but some also return 1
if the method is not present, or 0 if no dma ops are present (although
that should never happeb). Consolidate this more broad version into
common code.

Also fix h8300 which inorrectly always returned 0, which would have been
a problem if it's dma_set_mask implementation wasn't a similarly buggy
noop.

As a few architectures have much more elaborate implementations, we
still allow for arch overrides.

      dma-mapping: cosolidate dma_mapping_error · efa21e43
      Christoph Hellwig authored 
      

Currently there are three valid implementations of dma_mapping_error:

 (1) call ->mapping_error
 (2) check for a hardcoded error code
 (3) always return 0

This patch provides a common implementation that calls ->mapping_error
if present, then checks for DMA_ERROR_CODE if defined or otherwise
returns 0.

      dma-mapping: consolidate dma_{alloc,free}_noncoherent · 1e893752
      Christoph Hellwig authored 
      

Most architectures do not support non-coherent allocations and either
define dma_{alloc,free}_noncoherent to their coherent versions or stub
them out.

Openrisc uses dma_{alloc,free}_attrs to implement them, and only Mips
implements them directly.

This patch moves the Openrisc version to common code, and handles the
DMA_ATTR_NON_CONSISTENT case in the mips dma_map_ops instance.

Note that actual non-coherent allocations require a dma_cache_sync
implementation, so if non-coherent allocations didn't work on
an architecture before this patch they still won't work after it.

      dma-mapping: consolidate dma_{alloc,free}_{attrs,coherent} · 6894258e
      Christoph Hellwig authored 
      

Since 2009 we have a nice asm-generic header implementing lots of DMA API
functions for architectures using struct dma_map_ops, but unfortunately
it's still missing a lot of APIs that all architectures still have to
duplicate.

This series consolidates the remaining functions, although we still need
arch opt outs for two of them as a few architectures have very
non-standard implementations.

This patch (of 5):

The coherent DMA allocator works the same over all architectures supporting
dma_map operations.

This patch consolidates them and converges the minor differences:

 - the debug_dma helpers are now called from all architectures, including
   those that were previously missing them
 - dma_alloc_from_coherent and dma_release_from_coherent are now always
   called from the generic alloc/free routines instead of the ops
   dma-mapping-common.h always includes dma-coherent.h to get the defintions
   for them, or the stubs if the architecture doesn't support this feature
 - checks for ->alloc / ->free presence are removed.  There is only one
   magic instead of dma_map_ops without them (mic_dma_ops) and that one
   is x86 only anyway.

Besides that only x86 needs special treatment to replace a default devices
if none is passed and tweak the gfp_flags.  An optional arch hook is provided
for that.

      lib/decompressors: use real out buf size for gunzip with kernel · 2d3862d2

When loading x86 64bit kernel above 4GiB with patched grub2, got kernel
gunzip error.

the new buffer is at 0x46fe000000ULL, decompressor_gzip is using
0xffffffb901ffffff as out_len.  gunzip in lib/zlib_inflate/inflate.c cap
that len to 0x01ffffff and decompress fails later.

We could hit this problem with crashkernel booting that uses kexec loading
kernel above 4GiB.

We have decompress_* support:
    1. inbuf[]/outbuf[] for kernel preboot.
    2. inbuf[]/flush() for initramfs
    3. fill()/flush() for initrd.
This bug only affect kernel preboot path that use outbuf[].

Add __decompress and take real out_buf_len for gunzip instead of guessing
wrong buf size.

      kexec: split kexec_load syscall from kexec core code · 2965faa5
      Dave Young authored 
      

There are two kexec load syscalls, kexec_load another and kexec_file_load.
 kexec_file_load has been splited as kernel/kexec_file.c.  In this patch I
split kexec_load syscall code to kernel/kexec.c.

And add a new kconfig option KEXEC_CORE, so we can disable kexec_load and
use kexec_file_load only, or vice verse.

The original requirement is from Ted Ts'o, he want kexec kernel signature
being checked with CONFIG_KEXEC_VERIFY_SIG enabled.  But kexec-tools use
kexec_load syscall can bypass the checking.

Vivek Goyal proposed to create a common kconfig option so user can compile
in only one syscall for loading kexec kernel.  KEXEC/KEXEC_FILE selects
KEXEC_CORE so that old config files still work.

Because there's general code need CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE, so I updated all the
architecture Kconfig with a new option KEXEC_CORE, and let KEXEC selects
KEXEC_CORE in arch Kconfig.  Also updated general kernel code with to
kexec_load syscall.
