Commit d015fe995 'powerpc/cell/axon-msi: Retry on missing interrupt'
has turned a rare failure to kexec on QS22 into a reproducible
error, which we have now analysed.The problem is that after a kexec, the MSIC hardware still points
into the middle of the old ring buffer. We set up the ring buffer
during reboot, but not the offset into it. On older kernels, this
would cause a storm of thousands of spurious interrupts after a
kexec, which would most of the time get dropped silently.With the new code, we time out on each interrupt, waiting for
it to become valid. If more interrupts come in that we time
out on, this goes on indefinitely, which eventually leads to
a hard crash.The solution in this commit is to read the current offset from
the MSIC when reinitializing it. This now works correctly, as
expected.Reported-by: Dirk Herrendoerfer

careful_allocation() was calling into the bootmem allocator for
nodes which had not been fully initialized and caused a previous
bug: http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/10528/ So, I merged a
few broken out loops in do_init_bootmem() to fix it. That changed
the code ordering.I think this bug is triggered by having reserved areas for a node
which are spanned by another node's contents. In the
mark_reserved_regions_for_nid() code, we attempt to reserve the
area for a node before we have allocated the NODE_DATA() for that
nid. We do this since I reordered that loop. I suck.This is causing crashes at bootup on some systems, as reported
by Jon Tollefson.This may only present on some systems that have 16GB pages
reserved. But, it can probably happen on any system that is
trying to reserve large swaths of memory that happen to span other
nodes' contents.This commit ensures that we do not touch bootmem for any node which
has not been initialized, and also removes a compile warning about
an unused variable.Signed-off-by: Dave Hansen

It looks like most of the hugetlb code is doing the correct thing if
hugepages are not supported, but the mmap code is not. If we get into
the mmap code when hugepages are not supported, such as in an LPAR
which is running Active Memory Sharing, we can oops the kernel. This
fixes the oops being seen in this path.oops: Kernel access of bad area, sig: 11 [#1]

powerpc/fsl-booke: Fix problem with _tlbil_va being interrupted -
VMI initialiation can relocate the fixmap, causing early_ioremap to
malfunction if it is initialized before the relocation. To fix this,
VMI activation is split into two phases; the detection, which must
happen before setting up ioremap, and the activation, which must happen
after parsing early boot parameters.This fixes a crash on boot when VMI is enabled under VMware.

An example calling sequence which we did see:
copy_user_highpage -> kmap_atomic -> flush_tlb_page -> _tlbil_va
We got interrupted after setting up the MAS registers before the
tlbwe and the interrupt handler that caused the interrupt also did
a kmap_atomic (ide code) and thus on returning from the interrupt
the MAS registers no longer contained the proper values.Since we dont save/restore MAS registers for normal interrupts we
need to disable interrupts in _tlbil_va to ensure atomicity.Signed-off-by: Kumar Gala

Discard low-prioriy Tx interrupts when closing an MN10300 on-chip serial port.
The MN10300 on-chip serial port uses three interrupts to manage its serial
ports:(1) A very high priority interrupt that drives virtual DMA for Rx.
(2) A very high priority interrupt that drives virtual DMA for Tx.
(3) A normal priority virtual interrupt that does the normal UART interrupt
stuff and is shared between Rx and Tx.mn10300_serial_stop_tx() only disables the high priority Tx interrupt. It
doesn't also disable the normal priority one because it is shared with Rx.However, the high priority interrupt may interrupt local_irq_disabled()
sections, and so may have queued up a low priority virtual interrupt whilst the
UART driver is asking for the Tx interrupt to be disabled.The result of this can be an oops when we try to process the interrupt in
mn10300_serial_transmit_interrupt() as port->uart.info and port->uart.info->tty
may have gone away.To deal with this, if either of those pointers is NULL, we make sure the
high-priority Tx interrupt is disabled and discard the interrupt. The low
priority interrupt is disabled by the mn10300_serial_pic irq_chip table.Signed-off-by: Akira Takeuchi
