2010-12-04ARM: 6522/1: kexec: Add call to non-crashing cores through IPIPer Fransson1-0/+30
When kexec is used to start a crash kernel the other cores are notified. These non-crashing cores will save their state in the crash notes and then do nothing. Signed-off-by: Per Fransson <per.xx.fransson@stericsson.com> Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
2010-10-26arm: Disable outer (L2) cache in kexecThomas Gleixner1-0/+3
kexec does not disable the outer cache before disabling the inner caches in cpu_proc_fin(). So L2 is enabled across the kexec jump. When the new kernel enables chaches again, it randomly crashes. Disabling L2 before calling cpu_proc_fin() cures the problem. Disabling L2 requires the following new functions: flush_all(), inv_all() and disable(). Add them to outer_cache_fns and call them from the kexec code.

2010-07-27ARM: call machine_shutdown() from machine_halt(), etcRussell King1-4/+0
x86 calls machine_shutdown() from the various machine_*() calls which take the machine down ready for halting, restarting, etc, and uses this to bring the system safely to a point where those actions can be performed. Such actions are stopping the secondary CPUs. So, change the ARM implementation of these to reflect what x86 does. This solves kexec problems on ARM SMP platforms, where the secondary CPUs were left running across the kexec call. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
2010-07-27ARM: Factor out common code from cpu_proc_fin()Russell King1-1/+5
All implementations of cpu_proc_fin() start by disabling interrupts and then flush caches. Rather than have every processors proc_fin() implementation do this, move it out into generic code - and move the cache flush past setup_mm_for_reboot() (so it can benefit from having caches still enabled.) This allows cpu_proc_fin() to become independent of the L1/L2 cache types, and eventually move the L2 cache flushing into the L2 support code.

2009-02-10[ARM] Storage class should be before const qualifierTobias Klauser1-2/+2
The C99 specification states in section 6.11.5: The placement of a storage-class specifier other than at the beginning of the declaration specifiers in a declaration is an obsolescent feature.

Rename KEXEC_CONTROL_CODE_SIZE to KEXEC_CONTROL_PAGE_SIZE, because control page is used for not only code on some platform. For example in kexec jump, it is used for data and stack too.

2008-02-04[ARM] 4736/1: Export atags to userspace and allow kexec to use customised atagsRichard Purdie1-0/+2
Currently, the atags used by kexec are fixed to the ones originally used to boot the kernel. This is less than ideal as changing the commandline, initrd and other options would be a useful feature. This patch exports the atags used for the current kernel to userspace through an "atags" file in procfs. The presence of the file is controlled by its own Kconfig option and cleans up several ifdef blocks into a separate file. The tags for the new kernel are assumed to be at a fixed location before the kernel image itself. The location of the tags used to boot the original kernel is unimportant and no longer saved.

2007-02-16[ARM] 4137/1: Add kexec supportRichard Purdie1-0/+78
Add kexec support to ARM. Improvements like commandline handling could be made but this patch gives basic functional support. It uses the next available syscall number, 347. Once the syscall number is known, userspace support will be finalised/submitted to kexec-tools, various patches already exist. Originally based on a patch by Maxim Syrchin but updated and forward ported by various people.
