2006-06-29[PATCH] solve config broken: undefined reference to `online_page'Yasunori Goto
Memory hotplug code of i386 adds memory to only highmem. So, if CONFIG_HIGHMEM is not set, CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG shouldn't be set. Otherwise, it causes compile error. In addition, many architecture can't use memory hotplug feature yet. So, I introduce CONFIG_ARCH_ENABLE_MEMORY_HOTPLUG.

2006-04-11[PATCH] Configurable NODES_SHIFTYasunori Goto
Current implementations define NODES_SHIFT in include/asm-xxx/numnodes.h for each arch. Its definition is sometimes configurable. Indeed, ia64 defines 5 NODES_SHIFT values in the current git tree. But it looks a bit messy. SGI-SN2(ia64) system requires 1024 nodes, and the number of nodes already has been changeable by config. Suitable node's number may be changed in the future even if it is other architecture. So, I wrote configurable node's number. This patch set defines just default value for each arch which needs multi nodes except ia64. But, it is easy to change to configurable if necessary. On ia64 the number of nodes can be already configured in generic ia64 and SN2 config. But, NODES_SHIFT is defined for DIG64 and HP'S machine too. So, I changed it so that all platforms can be configured via CONFIG_NODES_SHIFT. It would be simpler.

2006-03-26[PATCH] ia64: use i386 dmi_scan.cMatt Domsch
Enable DMI table parsing on ia64. Andi Kleen has a patch in his x86_64 tree which enables the use of i386 dmi_scan.c on x86_64. dmi_scan.c functions are being used by the drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_si_intf.c driver for autodetecting the ports or memory spaces where the IPMI controllers may be found. This patch adds equivalent changes for ia64 as to what is in the x86_64 tree. In addition, I reworked the DMI detection, such that on EFI-capable systems, it uses the efi.smbios pointer to find the table, rather than brute-force searching from 0xF0000. On non-EFI systems, it continues the brute-force search. My test system, an Intel S870BN4 'Tiger4', aka Dell PowerEdge 7250, with latest BIOS, does not list the IPMI controller in the ACPI namespace, nor does it have an ACPI SPMI table. Also note, currently shipping Dell x8xx EM64T servers don't have these either, so DMI is the only method for obtaining the address of the IPMI controller.

2005-09-07[PATCH] x86/x86_64: deferred handling of writes to /proc/irqxx/smp_affinityAshok Raj
When handling writes to /proc/irq, current code is re-programming rte entries directly. This is not recommended and could potentially cause chipset's to lockup, or cause missing interrupts. CONFIG_IRQ_BALANCE does this correctly, where it re-programs only when the interrupt is pending. The same needs to be done for /proc/irq handling as well. Otherwise user space irq balancers are really not doing the right thing. - Changed pending_irq_balance_cpumask to pending_irq_migrate_cpumask for lack of a generic name. - added move_irq out of IRQ_BALANCE, and added this same to X86_64 - Added new proc handler for write, so we can do deferred write at irq handling time. - Display of /proc/irq/XX/smp_affinity used to display CPU_MASKALL, instead it now shows only active cpu masks, or exactly what was set. - Provided a common move_irq implementation, instead of duplicating when using generic irq framework. Tested on i386/x86_64 and ia64 with CONFIG_PCI_MSI turned on and off. Tested UP builds as well. MSI testing: tbd: I have cards, need to look for a x-over cable, although I did test an earlier version of this patch. Will test in a couple days.

2005-06-21[PATCH] ia64 uncached allocJes Sorensen
This patch contains the ia64 uncached page allocator and the generic allocator (genalloc). The uncached allocator was formerly part of the SN2 mspec driver but there are several other users of it so it has been split off from the driver. The generic allocator can be used by device driver to manage special memory etc. The generic allocator is based on the allocator from the sym53c8xx_2 driver. Various users on ia64 needs uncached memory. The SGI SN architecture requires it for inter-partition communication between partitions within a large NUMA cluster. The specific user for this is the XPC code. Another application is large MPI style applications which use it for synchronization, on SN this can be done using special 'fetchop' operations but it also benefits non SN hardware which may use regular uncached memory for this purpose. Performance of doing this through uncached vs cached memory is pretty substantial. This is handled by the mspec driver which I will push out in a seperate patch. Rather than creating a specific allocator for just uncached memory I came up with genalloc which is a generic purpose allocator that can be used by device drivers and other subsystems as they please. For instance to handle onboard device memory. It was derived from the sym53c7xx_2 driver's allocator which is also an example of a potential user (I am refraining from modifying sym2 right now as it seems to have been under fairly heavy development recently). On ia64 memory has various properties within a granule, ie. it isn't safe to access memory as uncached within the same granule as currently has memory accessed in cached mode. The regular system therefore doesn't utilize memory in the lower granules which is mixed in with device PAL code etc. The uncached driver walks the EFI memmap and pulls out the spill uncached pages and sticks them into the uncached pool. Only after these chunks have been utilized, will it start converting regular cached memory into uncached memory. Hence the reason for the EFI related code additions.
