MIPS: PowerTV: Fix support for timer interrupts with > 64 external IRQs
MIPS: PowerTV: Streamline access to platform device registers
MIPS: Fix vmlinuz build for 32bit-only math shells
MIPS: Add support of LZO-compressed kernels
The MIPS processor is limited to 64 external interrupt sources. Using a
greater number without IRQ sharing requires reading platform-specific
registers. On such platforms, reading the IntCtl register to determine
which interrupt corresponds to a timer interrupt will not work.
On MIPSR2 systems there is a solution - the TI bit in the Cause register,
specifically indicates that a timer interrupt has occured. This patch uses
that bit to detect interrupts for MIPSR2 processors, which may be expected
to work regardless of how the timer interrupt may be routed in the hardware.

Pre-compute addresses for the basic ASIC registers. This speeds up access
and allows memory for unused configurations to be freed. In addition,
uninitialized register addresses will be returned as NULL to catch bad
usage quickly.

POSIX requires $((<expression>)) arithmetic in sh only to have long
arithmetic so on 32-bit sh binaries might do only 32-bit arithmetic but
the arithmetic done in arch/mips/boot/compressed/Makefile needs 64-bit.
I play with the AR7 platform, so VMLINUX_LOAD_ADDRESS is
0xffffffff94100000, and for an example 4MiB kernel
VMLINUZ_LOAD_ADDRESS is made out to be:
----
alex@berk:~$ bash -c 'printf "%x\n" $((0xffffffff94100000 + 0x400000))'
ffffffff94500000
alex@berk:~$ dash -c 'printf "%x\n" $((0xffffffff94100000 + 0x400000))'
80000000003fffff
----
The former is obviously correct whilst the later breaks things royally.
Fortunately working with only the lower 32bit's works for both bash and
dash:
----
$ bash -c 'printf "%x\n" $((0x94100000 + 0x400000))'
94500000
$ dash -c 'printf "%x\n" $((0x94100000 + 0x400000))'
94500000
----
So, we can split the original 64bit string to two parts, and only
calculate the low 32bit part, which is big enough (1GiB kernel sizes
anyone?) for a normal Linux kernel image file, now, we calculate the
VMLINUZ_LOAD_ADDRESS like this:
1. if present, append top 32bit of VMLINUX_LOAD_ADDRESS" as a prefix
2. get the sum of the low 32bit of VMLINUX_LOAD_ADDRESS + VMLINUX_SIZE
This patch fixes vmlinuz kernel builds on systems where only a
32bit-only math shell is available.
Patch Changelog:
Version 2
- simplified method by using 'expr' for 'substr' and making it work
with dash once again
Version 1
- Revert the removals of '-n "$(VMLINUX_SIZE)"' to avoid the error
of "make clean"
- Consider more cases of the VMLINUX_LOAD_ADDRESS
Version 0

Having missed the ENOMEM return via i915_gem_fault(), there are probably
other paths that I also missed. By not enabling NORETRY by default these
paths can run the shrinker and take memory from the system (but not from
our own inactive lists because our shrinker can not run whilst we hold
the struct mutex) and this may allow the system to survive a little longer
whilst our drivers consume all available memory.

Unsurprisingly, Texas Instruments TSB43AB23 exhibits the same behaviour
as TSB43AB22/A in dual buffer IR DMA mode: If descriptors are located
at physical addresses above the 31 bit address range (2 GB), the
controller will overwrite random memory. With luck, this merely
prevents video reception. With only a little less luck, the machine
crashes.
We use the same workaround here as with TSB43AB22/A: Switch off the
dual buffer capability flag and use packet-per-buffer IR DMA instead.
Another possible workaround would be to limit the coherent DMA mask to
31 bits.
In Linux 2.6.33, this change serves effectively only as documentation
since dual buffer mode is not used for any controller anymore. But
somebody might want to re-enable it in the future to make use of
features of dual buffer DMA that are not available in packet-per-buffer
mode.
In Linux 2.6.32 and older, this update is vital for anyone with this
controller, more than 2 GB RAM, a 64 bit kernel, and FireWire video or
audio applications.
We have at least four reports:

It's a simplified 'read_cache_page()' which takes a page allocation
flag, so that different paths can control how aggressive the memory
allocations are that populate a address space.
In particular, the intel GPU object mapping code wants to be able to do
a certain amount of own internal memory management by automatically
shrinking the address space when memory starts getting tight. This
allows it to dynamically use different memory allocation policies on a
per-allocation basis, rather than depend on the (static) address space
gfp policy.
The actual new function is a one-liner, but re-organizing the helper
functions to the point where you can do this with a single line of code
is what most of the patch is all about.

Commit db5d247a "firewire: fix use of multiple AV/C devices, allow
multiple FCP listeners" introduced a regression into 2.6.33-rc3:
The core freed payloads of incoming requests to FCP_Request or
FCP_Response before a userspace driver accessed them.
We need to copy such payloads for each registered userspace client
and free the copies according to the lifetime rules of non-FCP client
request resources.
(This could possibly be optimized by reference counts instead of
copies.)
The presently only kernelspace driver which listens for FCP requests,
firedtv, was not affected because it already copies FCP frames into an
own buffer before returning to firewire-core's FCP handler dispatcher.

struct fw_cdev_add_descriptor.length is in quadlets, not in bytes.
Also remove any doubts about the endianess of descriptor data.
Signed-off-by: Stefan Richter <stefanr@s5r6.in-berlin.de>
Presently, firewire-core only checks whether descriptors that are to be
added by userspace drivers to the local node's config ROM do not exceed
a size of 256 quadlets. However, the sum of the bare minimum ROM plus
all descriptors (from firewire-core, from firewire-net, from userspace)
must not exceed 256 quadlets.
Otherwise, the bounds of a statically allocated buffer will be
overwritten. If the kernel survives that, firewire-core will
subsequently be unable to parse the local node's config ROM.
(Note, userspace drivers can add descriptors only through device files
of local nodes. These are usually only accessible by root, unlike
device files of remote nodes which may be accessible to lesser
privileged users.)
Therefore add a test which takes the actual present and required ROM
size into account for all descriptors of kernelspace and userspace
drivers.

I have seen RX stalls on a machine that experienced a suspected
OOM. After the stall, the RX buffer is empty on the guest side
and there are exactly 16 entries available on the host side. As
the number of entries is less than that required by a maximal
skb, the host cannot proceed.
The guest did not have a refill job scheduled.
My diagnosis is that an OOM had occured, with the delayed refill
job scheduled. The job was able to allocate at least one skb, but
not enough to overcome the minimum required by the host to proceed.
As the refill job would only reschedule itself if it failed completely
to allocate any skbs, this would lead to an RX stall.
The following patch removes this stall possibility by always
rescheduling the refill job until the ring is totally refilled.
Testing has shown that the RX stall no longer occurs whereas
previously it would occur within a day.
