* [PATCH] typo fix in last cpufreq powernow patchChris Wright2005-10-221-1/+1

* [PATCH] cpufreq: fix pending powernow timer stuck conditionDave Jones2005-10-211-11/+19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | AMD recently discovered that on some hardware, there is a race condition possible when a C-state change request goes onto the bus at the same time as a P-state change request. Both requests happen, but the southbridge hardware only acknowledges the C-state change. The PowerNow! driver is then stuck in a loop, waiting for the P-state change acknowledgement. The driver eventually times out, but can no longer perform P-state changes. It turns out the solution is to resend the P-state change, which the southbridge will acknowledge normally. Thanks to Johannes Winkelmann for reporting this and testing the fix.

* [PATCH] i386: Don't discard upper 32bits of HWCR on K8Andi Kleen2005-10-111-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | Need to use long long, not long when RMWing a MSR. I think it's harmless right now, but still should be better fixed if AMD adds any bits in the upper 32bit of HWCR.

* [PATCH] i386: fix stack alignment for signal handlersMarkus F.X.J. Oberhumer2005-10-101-1/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | This fixes the setup of the alignment of the signal frame, so that all signal handlers are run with a properly aligned stack frame. The current code "over-aligns" the stack pointer so that the stack frame is effectively always mis-aligned by 4 bytes. But what we really want is that on function entry ((sp + 4) & 15) == 0, which matches what would happen if the stack were aligned before a "call" instruction. Signed-off-by: Markus F.X.J.

* [PATCH] gfp flags annotations - part 1Al Viro2005-10-091-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | - added typedef unsigned int __nocast gfp_t; - replaced __nocast uses for gfp flags with gfp_t - it gives exactly the same warnings as far as sparse is concerned, doesn't change generated code (from gcc point of view we replaced unsigned int with typedef) and documents what's going on far better.

| | | | | | | | | | | | I need the following patch to compile -git8 here, otherwise these files fail to compile (asm/hw_irq.h needs definitions from linux/irq.h and that file provides the required include ordering).

* Partially revert "Fix time going twice as fast problem on ATI Xpress chipsets"Linus Torvalds2005-09-151-10/+0Star
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 66759a01adbfe8828dd063e32cf5ed3f46696181 introduced the fix for time ticking too fast on some boards by disabling one of the doubly connected timer pins on ATI boards. However, it ends up being _much_ too broad a brush, and that just makes some other ATI boards not work at all since they now have no timer source. So disable the automatic ATI southbridge detection, and just rely on people who see this problem disabling it by hand with the option "disable_timer_pin_1" on the kernel command line. Maybe somebody can figure out the proper tests at a later date. Acked-by: Peter Osterlund <petero2@telia.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Inside the linker script, insert the code for DWARF debug info sections. This may help GDB'ing a Uml binary. Actually, it seems that ld is able to guess what I added correctly, but normal linker scripts include this section so it should be correct anyway adding it. On request by Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org>, I've added it to asm-generic/vmlinux.lds.s. I've also moved there the stabs debug section, used the new macro in i386 linker script and added DWARF debug section to that. In the truth, I've not been able to verify the difference in GDB behaviour after this change (I've seen large improvements with another patch). This may depend on my binutils version, older one may have worse defaults. However, this section is present in normal linker script, so add it at least for the sake of cleanness.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Building asm-offsets.h has been moved to a seperate Kbuild file located in the top-level directory. This allow us to share the functionality across the architectures. The old rules in architecture specific Makefiles will die in subsequent patches. Furhtermore the usual kbuild dependency tracking is now used when deciding to rebuild asm-offsets.s. So we no longer risk to fail a rebuild caused by asm-offsets.c dependencies being touched. With this common rule-set we now force the same name across all architectures. Following patches will fix the rest. Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org>
* | [PATCH] Update PCI IOMEM allocation startDaniel Ritz2005-09-101-8/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This fixes the problem with "Averatec 6240 pcmcia_socket0: unable to apply power", which was due to the CardBus IOMEM register region being allocated at an address that was actually inside the RAM window that had been reserved for video frame-buffers in an UMA setup. The BIOS _should_ have marked that region reserved in the e820 memory descriptor tables, but did not. It is fixed by rounding up the default starting address of PCI memory allocations, so that we leave a bigger gap after the final known memory location. The amount of rounding depends on how big the unused memory gap is that we can allocate IOMEM from. Based on example code by Linus.

The change below moves the centrino-speedstep detection to be used only when table based P-state transition is done. For ACPI based P-state transition, we skip the centrino_cpu identification, and as a result we don't use the bus speed assumption in extract_clock. This change makes speedstep-centrino work on Pentium-M based systems, which have more than 100MHz bus speed.

On an SMP system, if one CPU unregisters a kprobe just after another CPU hits that probepoint, kprobe_handler() on the latter CPU sees that the kprobe has been unregistered, and attempts to let the CPU continue as if the probepoint hadn't been hit. The bug is that on i386 and x86_64, we were neglecting to set the IP back to the beginning of the probed instruction. This could cause an oops or crash. This bug doesn't exist on ppc64 and ia64, where a breakpoint instruction leaves the IP pointing to the beginning of the instruction. I don't know about sparc64. (Dave, could you please advise?) This fix has been tested on i386 and x86_64 SMP systems. To reproduce the problem, set one CPU to work registering and unregistering a kprobe repeatedly, and another CPU pounding the probepoint in a tight loop.

We could say this is intended, for some dumb reason, except that it means that a match on the first check returns zero--no matches--if the callback returns nonzero.
