  • 9b6e3e42a   firmware: only allow EDD on x86 ... Browse Code »

    Rather than have the EDD depend on !ia64 (and assuming that only ia64,
    x86, x86_64 will be including this Kconfig), have EDD depend on the only
    arches which can support this code. This should allow all other arches to
    cleanly include the firmware Kconfig.

    Also simplify the x86 string used by FIRMWARE_MEMMAP to match EDD.

  • 9ebfbd45f   firmware_class: make request_firmware_nowait more useful ... Browse Code »

    Unfortunately, one cannot hold on to the struct firmware
    that request_firmware_nowait() hands off, which is needed
    in some cases. Allow this by requiring the callback to
    free it (via release_firmware).

    Additionally, give it a gfp_t parameter -- all the current
    users call it from a GFP_KERNEL context so the GFP_ATOMIC
    isn't necessary. This also marks an API break which is
    useful in a sense, although that is obviously not the
    primary purpose of this change.

  • 75757507e   DMI: allow omitting ident strings in DMI tables ... Browse Code »

    The purpose of dmi->ident is twofold - it may be used by DMI callback
    functions when composing log messages; it is also used to determine
    end of DMI table in dmi_check_system() and dmi_first_match(). However,
    in case when callbacks are not interested in using ident at all it just
    wastes memory. Let's make entries with empty first match slot serve as
    end-of-table markers instead.

    In virtual environments (namely, Xen Dom0) virt phys and
    virt isa-bus translations cannot be freely interchanged (and
    even outside such environments it is not really correct to do so).
    When looking at memory below 1M, the latter translations should
    always be used.

  • 3c1596efe   mm: don't use alloc_bootmem_low() where not strictly needed ... Browse Code »

    Since alloc_bootmem() will never return inaccessible (via virtual
    addressing) memory anyway, using the ..._low() variant only makes sense
    when the physical address range of the allocated memory must fulfill
    further constraints, espacially since on 64-bits (or more generally in all
    cases where the pools the two variants allocate from are than the full
    available range.

    Probably the use in alloc_tce_table() could also be eliminated (based on
    code inspection of pci-calgary_64.c), but that seems too risky given I
    know nothing about that hardware and have no way to test it.

  • 3e5cd1f25   dmi: extend dmi_get_year() to dmi_get_date() ... Browse Code »

    There are cases where full date information is required instead of
    just the year. Add month and day parsing to dmi_get_year() and rename
    it to dmi_get_date().

    As the original function only required '/' followed by any number of
    parseable characters at the end of the string, keep that behavior to
    avoid upsetting existing users.

    The new function takes dates of format [mm[/dd]]/yy[yy]. Year, month
    and date are checked to be in the ranges of [1-9999], [1-12] and
    [1-31] respectively and any invalid or out-of-range component is
    returned as zero.

    The dummy implementation is updated accordingly but the return value
    is updated to indicate field not found which is consistent with how
    other dummy functions behave.

  • 02c24fa87   dmi: fix date handling in dmi_get_year() ... Browse Code »

    Year parsing in dmi_get_year() had the following two bugs.

    * "00" is treated as invalid instead of 2000 because zero return from
    simple_strtoul() is treated as error.

    * "0N" where N >= 8 is treated as invalid of 200N because the leading
    0 is considered to specify octal.

    Fix the above two bugs by using endptr to detect invalid number and
    forcing decimal.

    It is generally agreed that it would be beneficial for u64 to be an
    unsigned long long on all architectures. ia64 (in common with several
    other 64-bit architectures) currently uses unsigned long. Migrating
    piecemeal is too painful; this giant patch fixes all compilation warnings
    and errors that come as a result of switching to use int-ll64.h.

    Note that userspace will still see __u64 defined as unsigned long. This
    is important as it affects C++ name mangling.

    [Updated by Tony Luck to change efi.h:efi_freemem_callback_t to use
    u64 for start/end rather than unsigned long]

    | variable in 32bit OS, the BUG_ON() will be invoked to result in the Int 6
    | error. I try the latest 32bit Ubuntu and Fedora distributions, all hit this
    | bug.
    |======
    |static int firmware_map_add_entry(resource_size_t start, resource_size_t end,
    | const char *type,
    | struct firmware_map_entry *entry)

    and it only happen with CONFIG_PHYS_ADDR_T_64BIT is not set.

    it turns out we need to pass u64 instead of resource_size_t for that.

  • 58a09b38c   [libata] ahci: Restore SB600 SATA controller 64 bit DMA ... Browse Code »

    Community reported one SB600 SATA issue(BZ #9412), which led to 64 bit
    DMA disablement for all SB600 revisions by driver maintainers with
    commits c7a42156d99bcea7f8173ba7a6034bbaa2ecb77c and
    4cde32fc4b32e96a99063af3183acdfd54c563f0.

    But the root cause is ASUS M2A-VM system BIOS bug in old revisions
    like 0901, while forcing into 32bit DMA happens to work as workaround.
    Now it's time to withdraw 4cde32fc4b32e96a99063af3183acdfd54c563f0
    so as to restore the SB600 SATA 64bit DMA capability.
    This patch is also adding the workaround for M2A-VM old BIOS revisions,
    but users are suggested to upgrade their system BIOS to the latest one
    if they meet this issue.

    Fix the display of a few fields in the iBFT NIC attribute structure in
    sysfs.

    Ensure that, if the DHCP IP address and the subnet mask for the interface
    is present in the iBFT NIC structure, the corresponding entries are
    created in sysfs tree for the device. This would hence create the
    additional entries in the tree based on the iBFT table and would not
    delete any existing entries.

  • d7b1956fe   DMI: Introduce dmi_first_match to make the interface more flexible ... Browse Code »

    Some notebooks from HP have the problem that their BIOSes attempt to
    spin down hard drives before entering ACPI system states S4 and S5.
    This leads to a yo-yo effect during system power-off shutdown and the
    last phase of hibernation when the disk is first spun down by the
    kernel and then almost immediately turned on and off by the BIOS.
    This, in turn, may result in shortening the disk's life times.

    To prevent this from happening we can blacklist the affected systems
    using DMI information. However, only the on-board controlles should
    be blacklisted and their PCI slot numbers can be used for this
    purpose. Unfortunately the existing interface for checking DMI
    information of the system is not very convenient for this purpose,
    because to use it, we would have to define special callback functions
    or create a separate struct dmi_system_id table for each blacklisted
    system.

    To overcome this difficulty introduce a new function
    dmi_first_match() returning a pointer to the first entry in an array
    of struct dmi_system_id elements that matches the system DMI
    information. Then, we can use this pointer to access the entry's
    .driver_data field containing the additional information, such as
    the PCI slot number, allowing us to do the desired blacklisting.

    Impact: Should permit VMware detection on older platforms where the
    vendor is changed. Could theoretically cause a regression if some
    weird serial number scheme contains the string "VMware" by pure
    chance. Seems unlikely, especially with the mixed case.

    In some user configured cases, VMware may choose not to put a VMware specific
    DMI string, but the product serial key is always there and is VMware specific.
    Add a interface to check the serial key, when checking for VMware in the DMI
    information.
