18 years ago[PATCH] drivers/mtd/redboot.c: recognise a foreign byte sex partition table
John Bowler [Wed, 1 Mar 2006 00:59:08 +0000 (16:59 -0800)] 
[PATCH] drivers/mtd/redboot.c: recognise a foreign byte sex partition table

The RedBoot boot loader writes flash partition tables containing native
byte sex 32 bit values.  When booting an opposite byte sex kernel (e.g.  an
LE kernel from BE RedBoot) the current MTD driver fails to handle the
partition table and therefore is unable to generate the correct partition
map for the flash.

So far as I am aware this problem is ARM specific, because only ARM
supports software change of the CPU (memory system) byte sex, however the
partition table parsing is in generic MTD code.  The patch below has been
tested on NSLU2 (an IXP4XX based system) with a patch,
10-ixp4xx-copy-from.patch (submitted to linux-arm-kernel - it's ARM
specific) required to make the maps/ixp4xx.c driver work with an LE kernel.

Builds of the patched system are in the 'unstable' release of OpenSlug and
UcSlugC available from www.nslu2-linux.org.  These builds are BE, the
archives at www.nslu2-linux.org and www.handhelds.org (see
monotone.vanille.de) can be built LE (currently DISTRO targets
nslu-ltu.conf for LE thumb uclibc (32 bit kernel) and nslu2-lau.conf,
nslu2-lag.conf for LE arm uclibc/glibc) and this patch has been tested
extensively will both BE and LE systems on the NSLU2 (including swapping
between BE and LE by reflashing from both RedBoot and Linux).

The patch recognises that the FIS directory (the partition table) is
byte-reversed by examining the partition table size, which is known to be
one erase block (this is an assumption made elsewhere in redboot.c).  If
the size matches the erase block after byte swapping the value then
byte-reversal is assumed, if not no further action is taken.  The patched
code is fail safe; should redboot.c be changed to support a partition table
with a modified size field the test will fail and the partition table will
be assumed to have the host byte sex.

If byte-reversal is detected the patch byte swaps the remainder of the 32
bit fields in the copy of the table; this copy is then used to set up the
MTD partition map.

two bugs could be triggered:

[PATCH] powerpc/iseries: Fix double phys_to_abs bug in htab_bolt_mapping

Before the merge I updated create_pte_mapping() to work for iSeries, by
calling iSeries_hpte_bolt_or_insert. (4c55130b2aa93370f1bf52d2304394e91cf8ee39)

Later we changed iSeries_hpte_insert to cope with the bolting case, and called
that instead from create_pte_mapping() (which was renamed to htab_bolt_mapping)
(3c726f8dee6f55e96475574e9f645327e461884c).

Unfortunately that change introduced a subtle bug, where we pass an absolute
address to iSeries_hpte_insert() where it expects a physical address. This
leads to us calling phys_to_abs() twice on the physical address, which is
seriously bogus.

This only causes a problem if the absolute address from the first translation
can be looked up again in the chunk_map, which depends on the size and layout
of memory. I've seen it fail on one box, but not others.

The minimal fix is to pass the physical address to iSeries_hpte_insert(). For
2.6.17 we should make phys_to_abs() BUG if we try to double-translate an
address.

However, after thinking about it for a bit we can adjust the
checksums without using this post_input stuff at all.  The crucial
point is that only the inner-most NAT-T SA needs to be considered
when adjusting checksums.  What's more, the checksum adjustment
comes down to a single u32 due to the linearity of IP checksums.

We just happen to have a spare u32 lying around in our skb structure :)
When ip_summed is set to CHECKSUM_NONE on input, the value of skb->csum
is currently unused.  All we have to do is to make that the checksum

Andi Kleen [Sun, 26 Feb 2006 03:18:52 +0000 (04:18 +0100)] 
[PATCH] x86_64: Better ATI timer fix

The previous experiment for using apicmaintimer on ATI systems didn't
work out very well.  In particular laptops with C2/C3 support often
don't let it tick during idle, which makes it useless.  There were also
some other bugs that made the apicmaintimer often not used at all.

I tried some other experiments - running timer over RTC and some other
things but they didn't really work well neither.

I rechecked the specs now and it turns out this simple change is
actually enough to avoid the double ticks on the ATI systems.  We just
turn off IRQ 0 in the 8254 and only route it directly using the IO-APIC.

I tested it on a few ATI systems and it worked there.  In fact it worked
on all chipsets (NVidia, Intel, AMD, ATI) I tried it on.

According to the ACPI spec routing should always work through the
IO-APIC so I think it's the correct thing to do anyways (and most of the
old gunk in check_timer should be thrown away for x86-64).

But for 2.6.16 it's best to do a fairly minimal change:
 - Use the known to be working everywhere-but-ATI IRQ0 both over 8254
   and IO-APIC setup everywhere
 - Except on ATI disable IRQ0 in the 8254
 - Remove the code to select apicmaintimer on ATI chipsets
 - Add some boot options to allow to override this (just paranoia)

In 2.6.17 I hope to switch the default over to this for everybody.

[PATCH] x86_64: Move the SMP time selection earlier

timer or not.

This is not needed anymore because we know present CPUs early.

This fixes a couple of problems:
 - apicmaintimer didn't always work because it relied on state that was
   set up time_init_gtod too late.
 - The output for the used timer in early kernel log was misleading

ACPI is initialized very early on x86-64, before the DMI code is
initialized.  This means it would often discover a 0 year and then turn
off ACPI because it thought the BIOS was too old.  Some systems don't
boot without ACPI so this was a problem.

I have a full fix by adding new very early DMI detection, but it needs
more testing before it can be merged.  For 2.6.16 let's just turn the
check off.  It never made much sense anyways because there are no x86-64

behavior could be invoked.

Recent GDT changes broke the SMP boot sequence if the booting CPU is
numbered anything other than zero.  There's also a subtle source of error
in that the boot time CPU now uses cpu_gdt_table (which is actually the GDT
for booting CPUs in head.S).  This patch fixes both problems by making GDT
descriptors themselves allocated from a per_cpu area and switching to them
in cpu_init(), which now means that cpu_gdt_table is exclusively used for
booting CPUs again.

[PATCH] page migration: Fix MPOL_INTERLEAVE behavior for migration via mbind()

migrate_pages_to() allocates a list of new pages on the intended target
node or with the intended policy and then uses the list of new pages as
targets for the migration of a list of pages out of place.

When the pages are allocated it is not clear which of the out of place
pages will be moved to the new pages.  So we cannot specify an address as
needed by alloc_page_vma().  This causes problem for MPOL_INTERLEAVE which
will currently allocate the pages on the first node of the set.  If mbind
is used with vma that has the policy of MPOL_INTERLEAVE then the
interleaving of pages may be destroyed.

This patch fixes that by generating a fake address for each alloc_page_vma
which will result is a distribution of pages as prescribed by
MPOL_INTERLEAVE.

Lee also noted that the sequence of nodes for the new pages seems to be
inverted.  So we also invert the way the lists of pages for migration are
build.

[PATCH] vgacon: no vertical resizing on EGA

EGA boards suck: they mostly have write-only registers.  This is
particularly problematic for the overflow register: for being able to write
to it, we would have to handle vertical sync & such too, which (I'd say)
would potentially break a lot of configurations.  Instead, just disabling
vertical resize for EGA boards is just nice enough (horizontal resize still
works).
