2010-03-12sgi-gru: use for_each_set_bit()Akinobu Mita1-11/+4

2010-03-07driver core: Convert some drivers to CLASS_ATTR_STRINGAndi Kleen1-9/+4
Convert some drivers who export a single string as class attribute to the new class_attr_string functions. This removes redundant code all over. Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
2010-03-07driver-core: Add attribute argument to class_attribute show/storeAndi Kleen1-1/+1
Passing the attribute to the low level IO functions allows all kinds of cleanups, by sharing low level IO code without requiring an own function for every piece of data. Also drivers can extend the attributes with own data fields and use that in the low level function. This makes the class attributes the same as sysdev_class attributes and plain attributes. This will allow further cleanups in drivers. Full tree sweep converting all users. Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
2010-03-06lkdtm: add debugfs access and loosen KPROBE tiesSimon Kagstrom1-82/+390
Add adds a debugfs interface and additional failure modes to LKDTM to provide similar functionality to the provoke-crash driver submitted here: http://lwn.net/Articles/371208/ Crashes can now be induced either through module parameters (as before) or through the debugfs interface as in provoke-crash. The patch also provides a new "direct" interface, where KPROBES are not used, i.e., the crash is invoked directly upon write to the debugfs file. When built without KPROBES configured, only this mode is available. Signed-off-by: Simon Kagstrom <simon.kagstrom@netinsight.net> Cc: M.

2009-12-16gru: send cross partition interrupts using the gruJack Steiner2-15/+36
GRU Message queue instructions are used to deliver messages to other SSIs within the numalink domain. In most cases, a single GRU mesq instruction will deliver both the message AND an interrupt to notify the other SSI that a messsage is present. In some cases, however, the interrupt must be sent explicitly. To improve resilency, the GRU driver should send these explicit interrupts using the GRU to write the remote chipset register. Current code sends the interrupt using a cpu instruction to write the chipset register.

2009-12-16gru: fix istatus race in GRU tlb dropinJack Steiner1-29/+20
TLB dropins require updates to the CBR instruction istatus field. This is needed to resolve race conditions in the chip. The code currently uses the user address of the CBR. This works but opens up additional endcases related to stealing of contexts and accessing the CBR from tasks that do not have access to the user address space. (Some of this non-user task access is debug code that is not currently being pushed to the community). User CBRs are also directly accessible using the kernel mapping of the CBR. Change the TLB dropin code to use the the kernel mapping of the CBR.

2009-12-16x86: uv: XPC receive message reuse triggers invalid BUG_ON()Robin Holt1-3/+0
This was a difficult bug to trip. XPC was in the middle of sending an acknowledgement for a received message. In xpc_received_payload_uv(): . ret = xpc_send_gru_msg(ch->sn.uv.cached_notify_gru_mq_desc, msg, sizeof(struct xpc_notify_mq_msghdr_uv)); if (ret != xpSuccess) XPC_DEACTIVATE_PARTITION(&xpc_partitions[ch->partid], ret); msg->hdr.msg_slot_number += ch->remote_nentries; at the point in xpc_send_gru_msg() where the hardware has dispatched the acknowledgement, the remote side is able to reuse the message structure and send a message with a different slot number. This problem is made worse by interrupts. The adjustment of msg_slot_number and the BUG_ON in xpc_handle_notify_mq_msg_uv() which verifies the msg_slot_number is consistent are only used for debug purposes. Since a fix for this that preserves the debug functionality would either have to infringe upon the payload or allocate another structure just for debug, I decided to remove it entirely.

2009-12-16x86: uv: update XPC to handle updated BIOS interfaceRobin Holt3-16/+47
The UV BIOS has moved the location of some of their pointers to the "partition reserved page" from memory into a uv hub MMR. The GRU does not support bcopy operations from MMR space so we need to special case the MMR addresses using VLOAD operations. Additionally, the BIOS call for registering a message queue watchlist has removed the 'blade' value and eliminated the structure that was being passed in. This is also reflected in this patch.
