This patch removes the /spu_tag_mask file from spufs. The data provided by
this file is also available from the /dma_info file in the dma_info_mask
of the spu_dma_info struct.

This patch reworks the way IRQs are fixed up on PCI for arch powerpc.
It makes pci_read_irq_line() called by default in the PCI code for
devices that are probed, and add an optional per-device fixup in
ppc_md for platforms that really need to correct what they obtain
from pci_read_irq_line().
It also removes ppc_md.irq_bus_setup which was only used by pSeries
and should not be needed anymore.
I've also removed the pSeries s7a workaround as it can't work with
the current interrupt code anyway. I'm trying to get one of these

I also haven't updated the old-style fixup code from 85xx_cds.c

This patch adds support for stopping, and restarting, spus
from xmon. We use the spu master runcntl bit to stop execution,
this is apparently the "right" way to control spu execution and
spufs will be changed in the future to use this bit.
Testing has shown that to restart execution we have to turn the
master runcntl bit on and also rewrite the spu runcntl bit, even
if it is already set to 1 (running).
Stopping spus is triggered by the xmon command 'ss' - "spus stop"
perhaps. Restarting them is triggered via 'sr'. Restart doesn't
start execution on spus unless they were running prior to being
stopped by xmon.
Walking the spu->full_list in xmon after a panic, would mean
corruption of any spu struct would make all the others
inaccessible. To avoid this, and also to make the next patch
easier, we cache pointers to all spus during boot.
We attempt to catch and recover from errors while stopping and
restarting the spus, but as with most xmon functionality there are
no guarantees that performing these operations won't crash xmon
itself.

isolated physical SPEs can be reused for subsequent applications.
Add a file ("recycle") in a spethread dir to enable isolated-mode
recycling. By writing to this file, the kernel will reload the

Currently, spufs_mbox_read transfers more bytes than requested on a

Note: one nasty property of this file in spufs is that you can only
read multiples of four bytes in the first place, since there is no way
to atomically put back a few bytes into the hardware register. Thus,
reading less than four bytes returns -EINVAL. Asking for more than

Fix up some of the buildbreaks from the irq handler changes.

Maintain a per-CPU global "struct pt_regs *" variable which can be used instead
of passing regs around manually through all ~1800 interrupt handlers in the
Linux kernel.
The regs pointer is used in few places, but it potentially costs both stack
space and code to pass it around. On the FRV arch, removing the regs parameter
from all the genirq function results in a 20% speed up of the IRQ exit path
(ie: from leaving timer_interrupt() to leaving do_IRQ()).
Where appropriate, an arch may override the generic storage facility and do
something different with the variable. On FRV, for instance, the address is
maintained in GR28 at all times inside the kernel as part of general exception
handling.
Having looked over the code, it appears that the parameter may be handed down
through up to twenty or so layers of functions. Consider a USB character
device attached to a USB hub, attached to a USB controller that posts its
interrupts through a cascaded auxiliary interrupt controller. A character
device driver may want to pass regs to the sysrq handler through the input
layer which adds another few layers of parameter passing.
I've build this code with allyesconfig for x86_64 and i386. I've runtested the
main part of the code on FRV and i386, though I can't test most of the drivers.
I've also done partial conversion for powerpc and MIPS - these at least compile
with minimal configurations.
This will affect all archs. Mostly the changes should be relatively easy.
Take do_IRQ(), store the regs pointer at the beginning, saving the old one:
struct pt_regs *old_regs = set_irq_regs(regs);
And put the old one back at the end:
set_irq_regs(old_regs);
Don't pass regs through to generic_handle_irq() or __do_IRQ().
In timer_interrupt(), this sort of change will be necessary:
- update_process_times(user_mode(regs));
- profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING, regs);
+ update_process_times(user_mode(get_irq_regs()));
+ profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING);
I'd like to move update_process_times()'s use of get_irq_regs() into itself,
except that i386, alone of the archs, uses something other than user_mode().
Some notes on the interrupt handling in the drivers:
(*) input_dev() is now gone entirely. The regs pointer is no longer stored in
the input_dev struct.
(*) finish_unlinks() in drivers/usb/host/ohci-q.c needs checking. It does
something different depending on whether it's been supplied with a regs
pointer or not.
(*) Various IRQ handler function pointers have been moved to type
irq_handler_t.

In order for oprofile to find the location in an spu-elf

Unfortunately, that binary itself can be embedded in a

the effective address space of the running process,
have that one write the pointer value into a new spufs

Since libspe2 will provide a function that can read/write

read/write on the three mailbox files can now access the

If the spu application keeps writing to its outbound

Unfortunately, if the user passes an invalid pointer,
we may lose a mailbox element on read, since we can't

This hopefully fixes a long-standing bug in the spu file system.
An spu context comes with local memory that can be either saved
in kernel pages or point directly to a physical SPE.
When mapping the physical SPE, that mapping needs to be cache-inhibited.
For simplicity, we used to map the kernel backing memory that way
too, but unfortunately that was not only inefficient, but also incorrect
because the same page could then be accessed simultaneously through
a cacheable and a cache-inhibited mapping, which is not allowed
by the powerpc specification and in our case caused data inconsistency
for which we did a really ugly workaround in user space.

Add the concept of a gang to spufs as a new type of object.
So far, this has no impact whatsover on scheduling, but makes
it possible to add that later.
A new type of object in spufs is now a spu_gang. It is created
with the spu_create system call with the flags argument set
to SPU_CREATE_GANG (0x2). Inside of a spu_gang, it
is then possible to create spu_context objects, which until
now was only possible at the root of spufs.
There is a new member in struct spu_context pointing to
the spu_gang it belongs to, if any. The spu_gang maintains
a list of spu_context structures that are its children.
This information can then be used in the scheduler in the
future.
There is still a bug that needs to be resolved in this
basic infrastructure regarding the order in which objects
are removed. When the spu_gang file descriptor is closed
before the spu_context descriptors, we leak the dentry
and inode for the gang. Any ideas how to cleanly solve
this are appreciated.

For better explanation, I break down the page fault handling into steps:
1) There is a page fault caused by DMA operation initiated by SPU and
DMA is suspended.
2) The interrupt handler 'spu_irq_class_1()/__spu_trap_data_map()' is
called and it just wakes up the sleeping spe-manager thread.
3) by PPE scheduler, the corresponding bottom half,
spu_irq_class_1_bottom() is called in process context and DMA is
restarted.
There can be a quite large time gap between 2) and 3) and I found
the following problem:
Between 2) and 3) If the context becomes unbound, 3) is not executed
because when the spe-manager thread is awaken, the context is already
saved. (This situation can happen, for example, when a high priority spe
thread newly started in that time gap)
But the actual problem is that the corresponding SPU context does not
work even if it is bound again to a SPU.
Besides I can see the following warning in mambo simulator when the
context becomes
unbound(in save_mfc_cmd()), i.e. when unbind() is called for the
context after step 2) before 3) :
'WARNING: 61392752237: SPE2: MFC_CMD_QUEUE channel count of 15 is
inconsistent with number of available DMA queue entries of 16'
After I go through available documents, I found that the problem is
because the suspended DMA is not restarted when it is bound again.

This patch adds NUMA support to the the spufs scheduler.
The new arch/powerpc/platforms/cell/spufs/sched.c is greatly
simplified, in an attempt to reduce complexity while adding
support for NUMA scheduler domains. SPUs are allocated starting
from the calling thread's node, moving to others as supported by
current->cpus_allowed. Preemption is gone as it was buggy, but
should be re-enabled in another patch when stable.
The new arch/powerpc/platforms/cell/spu_base.c maintains idle
lists on a per-node basis, and allows caller to specify which
node(s) an SPU should be allocated from, while passing -1 tells
spu_alloc() that any node is allowed.
Since the patch removes the currently implemented preemptive
scheduling, it is technically a regression, but practically
all users have since migrated to this version, as it is
part of the IBM SDK and the yellowdog distribution, so there
is not much point holding it back while the new preemptive
