      parisc: blink all or loadavg LEDs on oops · 8a1def45
      Helge Deller authored
      - depending on machine type, blink all leds or just the loadavg
        leds twice a second on oops.
      - cancel_rearming_delayed_workqueue() is obsolete,
        use cancel_delayed_work_sync() instead

      parisc: add ftrace (function and graph tracer) functionality · d75f054a
      Helge Deller authored
      This patch adds the ftrace debugging functionality to the parisc kernel.
      It will currently only work with 64bit kernels, because the gcc options -pg
      and -ffunction-sections can't be enabled at the same time and -ffunction-sections
      is still needed to be able to link 32bit kernels.

      parisc: allow to build with 16k default kernel page size · afca2523
      Helge Deller authored
      Introduce new convert_for_tlb_insert20 macro and use it to replace assembler
      statements with hardcoded constants.
      This change allows the parisc64 kernel to boot with 16kb default kernel page size,
      aka CONFIG_PARISC_PAGE_SIZE_16KB=y.

      parisc: expose 32/64-bit capabilities in cpuinfo · 445c088f
      Colin Watson authored
      It'd be rather useful for debian-installer if we could get hold of
      accurate firmware information on whether only 32-bit kernels are
      supported, only 64-bit kernels, or both; this would allow us to present
      an accurate menu of kernel packages if more than one is available,
      rather than the user having to guess. This patch attempts to expose it
      in cpuinfo.
      
      I adjusted pdc_model_capabilities to cope with a potential
      PDC_INVALID_ARG return as the firmware manual instructs, by assuming
      32-bit only. This may be the wrong place for it.
      
      I made up user-visible capability names by total fiat and for the moment
      ignored the other bits that may appear in the capabilities word.
      
      I have no PA-RISC machine myself to test on, and no PA experience
      either, so I rather hope that somebody will kind-heartedly take this and
      fix it up if needed. I ran it past Dann Frazier on IRC and he said
      "looks good to me", but I think without testing.
      
      Also, this is against the Ubuntu 2.6.28 kernel tree since that's what I
      had handy and I was a bit tight on disk space to slurp down another
      tree. Sorry if it's skewed in any relevant way; I'll be happy to adjust
      if necessary.
      
      Thanks in advance!

      parisc: use constants instead of numbers in assembly · 1152a68c
      Helge Deller authored
      A few small fixups:
      * _PAGE_SIZE_ENCODING_DEFAULT is wrong here, as one might assume that
        it's possible to define the page size that way. This is wrong. Use 0 instead.
      * use constants instead of hardcoded numerical values in depi and extru
        while building the PFN out of the pte entry
      * use SHRREG instead of extru (iitlba expects the PFN at bits {7..26})
      
      Still wondering why we can use the same register (pte) as extru source
      and target register, but it seems to work on PA1.1 and PA2.0...

      parisc: fix usage of 32bit PTE page table entries on 32bit kernels · 48d27cb2
      Helge Deller authored
      This patch fixes a long outstanding bug on 32bit parisc linux kernels
      which prevented us from using 32bit PTE table entries (instead of 64bit
      entries of which 32bit were unused).
      
      The problem was caused by this assembler statement in the L2_ptep
      macro in arch/parisc/kernel/entry.S:447:
      	EXTR \va,31-ASM_PGDIR_SHIFT,ASM_BITS_PER_PGD,\index
      which expanded to
      	extrw,u r8,9,11,r1
      and which has undefined behavior since the length value (11) extends
      beyond the leftmost bit (11-1 > 9).
      Interestingly PA2.0 processors seem to don't care and just zero-extend
      the value, while PA1.1 processors don't.
      
      Fix this problem by detecting an address space overflow with ASM_BITS_PER_PGD
      and adjusting it accordingly. To prevent such problems in the future,
      some compile time sanity checks in arch/parisc/mm/init.c were added.
      
      Since the page table now only consumes half of it's old size, we can
      use the freed memory to harmonize 32- and 64bit kernels and let both
      map 16MB for the initial page table.
