[PATCH] serial/68360serial: replace schedule_timeout() with msleep_interruptible()

Use msleep_interruptible() instead of schedule_timeout() in send_break() to
guarantee the task delays as expected.  Change @duration's units to
milliseconds, and modify arguments in callers appropriately.

[PATCH] change the SOUND_PRIME handling

SOUND_PRIME (for OSS) is a tristate.

This doesn't make much sense if most users are checking for
SOUND_PRIME!=0.

This patch changes the semantics of SOUND_PRIME to being a limit for all
OSS modules, IOW: SOUND_PRIME=m does now say that all OSS drivers can
only be modular.

As a side effect, since SOUND_PRIME already depends on SOUND, there's no
longer a reason for drivers depending on SOUND_PRIME to additionally
depend on SOUND.

[PATCH] kernel/timer: fix msleep_interruptible() comment

The comment for msleep_interruptible() is wrong, as it will ignore

[PATCH] char/ds1620: use msleep() instead of schedule_timeout()

Not sure why any driver needs to sleep for *two* ticks, so let's fix it.

Use msleep() instead of schedule_timeout() to guarantee the task delays as
expected.  Signals are never checked for by the callers or in the function
itself, so use TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE instead of TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE.  The
delay is presumed to have been written when HZ==100, and thus has been
multiplied by 10 to pass to msleep().

die(): check the conditions under which we will panic when calling
do_exit and go there directly with the pt_regs that caused the fatal
fault.

die_nmi(): If we receive an NMI lockup while in the kernel use the
pt_regs and go directly to crash_kexec(). We're probably nested up badly
at this point so this might be the only chance to escape with proper

[PATCH] kdump: Documentation for Kdump

This patch contains the documentation for the kexec based crash dump tool.

Quick kdump-howto
================================================================

1) Download and build kexec-tools.

2) Download and build the latest kexec/kdump (-mm) kernel patchset.
   Two kernels need to be built in order to get this feature working.

  A) First kernel:
   a) Enable "kexec system call" feature:
CONFIG_KEXEC=y
   b) Physical load address (use default):
CONFIG_PHYSICAL_START=0x100000
   c) Enable "sysfs file system support":
CONFIG_SYSFS=y
   d) Boot into first kernel with the command line parameter "crashkernel=Y@X":
      For example: "crashkernel=64M@16M".

  B) Second kernel:
   a) Enable "kernel crash dumps" feature:
CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP=y
   b) Physical load addreess, use same load address as X in "crashkernel"
      kernel parameter in d) above, e.g., 16 MB or 0x1000000.
CONFIG_PHYSICAL_START=0x1000000
   c) Enable "/proc/vmcore support" (Optional, in Pseudo filesystems).
CONFIG_PROC_VMCORE=y

3) Boot into the first kernel.

4) Load the second kernel to be booted using:

   kexec -p <second-kernel> --crash-dump --args-linux --append="root=<root-dev>
   maxcpus=1 init 1"

5) System reboots into the second kernel when a panic occurs. A module can be
   written to force the panic, for testing purposes.

6) See Documentation/kdump.txt for how to read the first kernel's
   memory image and how to analyze it.

[PATCH] Kexec: Kexec on panic fix with nmi watchdog enabled

o Problem: Kexec on panic hangs if first kernel is booted with nmi_watchdog
  command line parameter. This problem occurs because kexec crash shutdown
  code replaces the NMI callback handler. This handler saves the cpu register
  states and halts the cpu. If system is booted with nmi_watchdog parameter,
  then crashing cpu also runs this nmi handler and halts itself.

[PATCH] ppc64: kexec support for ppc64

This patch implements the kexec support for ppc64 platforms.

A couple of notes:

1)  We copy the pages in virtual mode, using the full base kernel
    and a statically allocated stack.   At kexec_prepare time we
    scan the pages and if any overlap our (0, _end[]) range we
    return -ETXTBSY.

    On PowerPC 64 systems running in LPAR (logical partitioning)
    mode, only a small region of memory, referred to as the RMO,
    can be accessed in real mode.  Since Linux runs with only one
    zone of memory in the memory allocator, and it can be orders of
    magnitude more memory than the RMO, looping until we allocate
    pages in the source region is not feasible.  Copying in virtual
    means we don't have to write a hash table generation and call
    hypervisor to insert translations, instead we rely on the pinned
    kernel linear mapping.  The kernel already has move to linked
    location built in, so there is no requirement to load it at 0.

    If we want to load something other than a kernel, then a stub
    can be written to copy a linear chunk in real mode.

2)  The start entry point gets passed parameters from the kernel.
    Slaves are started at a fixed address after copying code from
    the entry point.

    All CPUs get passed their firmware assigned physical id in r3
    (most calling conventions use this register for the first
    argument).

    This is used to distinguish each CPU from all other CPUs.
    Since firmware is not around, there is no other way to obtain
    this information other than to pass it somewhere.

    A single CPU, referred to here as the master and the one executing
    the kexec call, branches to start with the address of start in r4.
    While this can be calculated, we have to load it through a gpr to
    branch to this point so defining the register this is contained
    in is free.  A stack of unspecified size is available at r1
    (also common calling convention).

    All remaining running CPUs are sent to start at absolute address
    0x60 after copying the first 0x100 bytes from start to address 0.
    This convention was chosen because it matches what the kernel
    has been doing itself.  (only gpr3 is defined).

    Note: This is not quite the convention of the kexec bootblock v2
    in the kernel.  A stub has been written to convert between them,
    and we may adjust the kernel in the future to allow this directly
    without any stub.

3)  Destination pages can be placed anywhere, even where they
    would not be accessible in real mode.  This will allow us to
    place ram disks above the RMO if we choose.

[PATCH] kexec: kexec ppc support

I have tweaked this patch slightly to handle an empty list
of pages to relocate passed to relocate_new_kernel.  And
I have added ppc_md.machine_crash_shutdown.  To keep up with
the changes in the generic kexec infrastructure.

From: Albert Herranz <albert_herranz@yahoo.es>

The following patch adds support for kexec on the ppc32 platform.

Non-OpenFirmware based platforms are likely to work directly without
additional changes on the kernel side.  The kexec-tools userland package
may need to be slightly updated, though.

For OpenFirmware based machines, additional work is still needed on the
kernel side before kexec support is ready.  Benjamin Herrenschmidt is
kindly working on that part.

In order for a ppc platform to use the kexec kernel services it must
implement some ppc_md hooks.  Otherwise, kexec will be explicitly disabled,
as suggested by benh.

There are 3+1 new ppc_md hooks that a platform supporting kexec may
implement.  Two of them are mandatory for kexec to work.  See
include/asm-ppc/machdep.h for details.

- machine_kexec_prepare(image)

  This function is called to make any arrangements to the image before it
  is loaded.

  This hook _MUST_ be provided by a platform in order to activate kexec
  support for that platform.  Otherwise, the platform is considered to not
  support kexec and the kexec_load system call will fail (that makes all
  existing platforms by default non-kexec'able).

- machine_kexec_cleanup(image)

  This function is called to make any cleanups on image after the loaded
  image data it is freed.  This hook is optional.  A platform may or may
  not provide this hook.

- machine_kexec(image)

  This function is called to perform the _actual_ kexec.  This hook
  _MUST_ be provided by a platform in order to activate kexec support for
  that platform.

  If a platform provides machine_kexec_prepare but forgets to provide
  machine_kexec, a kexec will fall back to a reboot.

  A ready-to-use machine_kexec_simple() generic function is provided to,
  hopefully, simplify kexec adoption for embedded platforms.  A platform
  may call this function from its specific machine_kexec hook, like this:

void myplatform_kexec(struct kimage *image)
{
        machine_kexec_simple(image);
}

- machine_shutdown()

  This function is called to perform any machine specific shutdowns, not
  already done by drivers.  This hook is optional.  A platform may or may
  not provide this hook.

An example (trimmed) platform specific module for a platform supporting
kexec through the existing machine_kexec_simple follows:

/* ... */

#ifdef CONFIG_KEXEC
int myplatform_kexec_prepare(struct kimage *image)
{
        /* here, we can place additional preparations
*/
        return 0; /* yes, we support kexec */
}

void myplatform_kexec(struct kimage *image)
{
        machine_kexec_simple(image);
}
#endif /* CONFIG_KEXEC */

/* ... */

void __init
platform_init(unsigned long r3, unsigned long r4,
unsigned long r5,
              unsigned long r6, unsigned long r7)
{

/* ... */

#ifdef CONFIG_KEXEC
        ppc_md.machine_kexec_prepare =
myplatform_kexec_prepare;
        ppc_md.machine_kexec         =
myplatform_kexec;
#endif /* CONFIG_KEXEC */

/* ... */

}

The kexec ppc kernel support has been heavily tested on the GameCube Linux
port, and, as reported in the fastboot mailing list, it has been tested too
on a Moto 82xx ppc by Rick Richardson.

[PATCH] kexec: x86 shutdown APICs during crash_shutdown

In the case of a crash/panic an architecture specific function
machine_crash_shutdown is called.  This patch adds to the x86 machine_crash
function the standard kernel code for shutting down apics.

Every line of code added to that function increases the risk that we will call
code after a kernel panic that is not safe.

This patch should not make it to the stable kernel without a being reviewed a
lot more.  It is unclear how much a hardned kernel can take when it comes to
misconfigured apics.  So since a normal kernel has problems this patch does a
clean shutdown.

It is my expectation this patch will be dropped from future generations of the
kexec work.  But for the moment it is a crutch to keep from breaking
everything.

[PATCH] crashdump: x86: add NMI handler to capture other CPUs

One of the dangers when switching from one kernel to another is what happens
to all of the other cpus that were running in the crashed kernel.  In an
attempt to avoid that problem this patch adds a nmi handler and attempts to
shoot down the other cpus by sending them non maskable interrupts.

The code then waits for 1 second or until all known cpus have stopped running
and then jumps from the running kernel that has crashed to the kernel in
reserved memory.

The kernel spin loop is used for the delay as that should behave continue to
be safe even in after a crash.
