| * | powerpc/pseries: Reduce HVCS driver insanityBenjamin Herrenschmidt2011-03-021-31/+43
| |/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The HVCS driver, for those who don't know, is a driver for the "server" side of the IBM virtual terminal mechanism allowing Linux partitions to act as terminal servers under IBM PowerVM hypervisor. It's almost never used on the field at the moment. However, it's part of our configs, and in its current incarnation, will allocate the tty driver & major (with 64 minors) and create a kernel thread whether it's used or not, ie, whether the hypervisor did put a virtual terminal server device node in the partition or not (or whether running on a pseries machine or not even). This in turns causes modern distro's udev's to start trying to open all those 64 minors at boot, which, since they aren't linked to anything, causes the driver to spew errors in the kernel log for each of them. Not nice. This moves all that initialization to a function which is now only called the first time a terminal server virtual IO device is actually probed (that is almost never). There's still a _LOT_ of cleanup that can be done in this driver, some simple (almost all printk's statements in there shall either just be removed or in some case turned into better written & more informative messages, including using the dev_* variants etc...). This is left as an exercise for whoever actually cares about that driver. One could also try to be smart and dispose of all the tty related resources when the last instance of the VIO server device is removed (Hotplug anybody ?).

| * | | xen/hvc: Disable probe_irq_on/off from poking the hvc-console IRQ line.Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk2011-03-101-0/+2
| | |/ | |/| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This fixes a particular nasty racing problem found when using Xen hypervisor with the console (hvc) output being routed to the serial port and the serial port receiving data when probe_irq_off(probe_irq_on) is running. Specifically the bug manifests itself with: [ 4.470693] BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000008 [ 4.470693] IP: [<ffffffff810a8c65>] handle_IRQ_event+0xe/0xc9 ..snip..

The functions utilize the sleep functions so the minimum time they are run is 120 msec. B). Xen hypervisor receiving on the serial line any character and setting the bits in the event channel - during this 120 msec timeframe. C). The hvc API makes a call to 'request_irq' (and hence setting desc->action to a valid value), much much later - when user space opens /dev/console (hvc_open). To make the console usable during bootup, the Xen HVC implementation sets the IRQ chip (and correspondingly the event channel) much earlier. The IRQ chip handler that is used is the handle_percpu_irq (aaca49642b92c8a57d3ca5029a5a94019c7af69f) Back to the issue. When A) is being called it ends up calling the xen_percpu_chip's chip->startup twice and chip->shutdown once. Those are set to the default_startup and mask_irq (events.c) respectivly. If (and this seems to depend on what serial concentrator you use), B) gets data from the serial port it sets in the event channel a pending bit. When A) calls chip->startup(), the masking of the pending bit, and unmasking of the event channel mask, and also setting of the upcall_pending flag is done (since there is data present on the event channel). If before the 120 msec has elapsed, any IRQ handler (Xen IRQ has one IRQ handler, which checks the event channels bitmap to figure which one to call) is called we end up calling the handle_percpu_irq. The handle_percpu_irq calls desc->action (which is NULL) and we blow up. Caveats: I could only reproduce this on 2.6.32 pvops. I am not sure why this is not showing up on 2.6.38 kernel. The probe_irq_on/off has code to disable poking specific IRQ lines. This is done by using the set_irq_noprobe() and then we do not have to worry about the handle_percpu_irq being called before the IRQ action handler has been installed.

* | hvc_dcc: Simplify assembly for v6 and v7 ARMStephen Boyd2011-02-031-24/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The inline assembly differences for v6 vs. v7 in the hvc_dcc driver are purely optimizations. On a v7 processor, an mrc with the pc sets the condition codes to the 28-31 bits of the register being read. It just so happens that the TX/RX full bits the DCC driver is testing for are high enough in the register to be put into the condition codes. On a v6 processor, this "feature" isn't implemented and thus we have to do the usual read, mask, test operations to check for TX/RX full. Since we already test the RX/TX full bits before calling __dcc_getchar() and __dcc_putchar() we don't actually need to do anything special for v7 over v6. The only difference is in hvc_dcc_get_chars(). We would test RX full, poll RX full, and then read a character from the buffer, whereas now we will test RX full, read a character from the buffer, and then test RX full again for the second iteration of the loop. It doesn't seem possible for the buffer to go from full to empty between testing the RX full and reading a character. Therefore, replace the v7 versions with the v6 versions and everything works the same.

Mark all the inline assembly in this file as volatile since we don't want the compiler to optimize away these statements or move them around in any way.
