* | | | [PATCH] re-disable TSC on NUMAQDave Hansen2005-07-281-0/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Somewhere recently, the TSC got re-enabled for timekeeping on NUMAQ machines. However, the hardware makes these get unsynchronized quite badly. So badly, in fact, that the code to fix up the skew can just hang on boot. This patch re-disables them. It's nicely confined to the numaq.c file. It would be great if this could make it into 2.6.13, I think it counts as a bugfix. Tested on a 16-proc 4-node NUMAQ.

* | | | [PATCH] uml: fix TT mode by reverting "use fork instead of clone"Jeff Dike2005-07-281-19/+29

Anyone using this feature currently is either using some older kernel (some reports even used 2.6.12-rc4-mm2) or using this patch, as included in my -bs patchset. For now there's not yet a fix for this patch, so for now the best thing is to drop it (which was widely reported to give a working kernel, and as such was even merged in -stable tree). "Convert the boot-time host ptrace testing from clone to fork. They were essentially doing fork anyway. This cleans up the code a bit, and makes valgrind a bit happier about grinding it."

Using sw->ar_unat risks picking up the 4 bits that were overwritten when r4-7 were saved. Also this line is wrong unw.sw_off[unw.preg_index[UNW_REG_PFS]] = SW(AR_UNAT); and should be unw.sw_off[unw.preg_index[UNW_REG_PFS]] = SW(AR_PFS); Signed-off-by: Keith Owens <kaos@sgi.com> Signed-off-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com>

* | | | | [PATCH] ppc32: 8xx avoid icbi misbehaviour in __flush_dcache_icache_physAnton Wöllert2005-07-271-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On 8xx, in the case where a pagefault happens for a process who's not the owner of the vma in question (ptrace for instance), the flush operation is performed via the physical address. Unfortunately, that results in a strange, unexplainable "icbi" instruction fault, most likely due to a CPU bug (see oops below). Avoid that by flushing the page via its kernel virtual address.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The kernel uses the SIGP external call order code to signal other CPUs. When running with dedicated CPUs external calls don't get delivered immediately but within a fixed polling invervall. This can lead to delays where the system appears to do nothing. Replace the SIGP external call order with the SIGP emergency call order since this one gets delivered immediately.
