The gcc version requirements may vary depending on the type of CPU in your
computer. The next paragraph applies to users of x86 CPUs, but not
necessarily to users of other CPUs. Users of other CPUs should obtain
information about their gcc version requirements from another source.
The recommended compiler for the kernel is gcc 2.95.x (x >= 3), and it
should be used when you need absolute stability. You may use gcc 3.0.x
instead if you wish, although it may cause problems. Later versions of gcc
have not received much testing for Linux kernel compilation, and there are
almost certainly bugs (mainly, but not exclusively, in the kernel) that
will need to be fixed in order to use these compilers. In any case, using
pgcc instead of plain gcc is just asking for trouble.
The Red Hat gcc 2.96 compiler subtree can also be used to build this tree.
You should ensure you use gcc-2.96-74 or later. gcc-2.96-54 will not build
the kernel correctly.
In addition, please pay attention to compiler optimization. Anything
greater than -O2 may not be wise. Similarly, if you choose to use gcc-2.95.x
or derivatives, be sure not to use -fstrict-aliasing (which, depending on
your version of gcc 2.95.x, may necessitate using -fno-strict-aliasing).

Chapter 14: References
Chapter 14: The inline disease
There appears to be a common misperception that gcc has a magic "make me
faster" speedup option called "inline". While the use of inlines can be
appropriate (for example as a means of replacing macros, see Chapter 11), it
very often is not. Abundant use of the inline keyword leads to a much bigger
kernel, which in turn slows the system as a whole down, due to a bigger
icache footprint for the CPU and simply because there is less memory
available for the pagecache. Just think about it; a pagecache miss causes a
disk seek, which easily takes 5 miliseconds. There are a LOT of cpu cycles
that can go into these 5 miliseconds.
A reasonable rule of thumb is to not put inline at functions that have more
than 3 lines of code in them. An exception to this rule are the cases where
a parameter is known to be a compiletime constant, and as a result of this
constantness you *know* the compiler will be able to optimize most of your
function away at compile time. For a good example of this later case, see
the kmalloc() inline function.
Often people argue that adding inline to functions that are static and used
only once is always a win since there is no space tradeoff. While this is
technically correct, gcc is capable of inlining these automatically without
help, and the maintenance issue of removing the inline when a second user
appears outweighs the potential value of the hint that tells gcc to do
something it would have done anyway.

The second type is a mutex

If you can't lock a mutex, your task will suspend itself, and be woken

Refcounter framework for elements of lists/arrays protected by

in search_and_reference to rcu_read_lock(), the rcuref_get in

search_and_reference could potentially hold reference to an element which
has already been deleted from the list/array. rcuref_lf_get_rcu takes
has already been deleted from the list/array. atomic_inc_not_zero takes
care of this scenario. search_and_reference should look as;
1. 2.
add() search_and_reference()
{ {
alloc_object rcu_read_lock();
... search_for_element
atomic_set(&el->rc, 1); if (rcuref_inc_lf(&el->rc)) {

Sometimes, reference to the element need to be obtained in the
update (write) stream. In such cases, rcuref_inc_lf might be an overkill
since the spinlock serialising list updates are held. rcuref_inc
update (write) stream. In such cases, atomic_inc_not_zero might be an
overkill since the spinlock serialising list updates are held. atomic_inc
is to be used in such cases.
For arches which do not have cmpxchg rcuref_inc_lf
api uses a hashed spinlock implementation and the same hashed spinlock
is acquired in all rcuref_xxx primitives to preserve atomicity.
Note: Use rcuref_inc api only if you need to use rcuref_inc_lf on the
refcounter atleast at one place. Mixing rcuref_inc and atomic_xxx api
might lead to races. rcuref_inc_lf() must be used in lockfree
RCU critical sections only.

I/O Barriers
============
Tejun Heo <htejun@gmail.com>, July 22 2005
I/O barrier requests are used to guarantee ordering around the barrier
requests. Unless you're crazy enough to use disk drives for
implementing synchronization constructs (wow, sounds interesting...),
the ordering is meaningful only for write requests for things like
journal checkpoints. All requests queued before a barrier request
must be finished (made it to the physical medium) before the barrier
request is started, and all requests queued after the barrier request
must be started only after the barrier request is finished (again,
made it to the physical medium).
In other words, I/O barrier requests have the following two properties.
1. Request ordering
Requests cannot pass the barrier request. Preceding requests are
processed before the barrier and following requests after.
Depending on what features a drive supports, this can be done in one
of the following three ways.
i. For devices which have queue depth greater than 1 (TCQ devices) and
support ordered tags, block layer can just issue the barrier as an
ordered request and the lower level driver, controller and drive
itself are responsible for making sure that the ordering contraint is
met. Most modern SCSI controllers/drives should support this.
NOTE: SCSI ordered tag isn't currently used due to limitation in the
SCSI midlayer, see the following random notes section.
ii. For devices which have queue depth greater than 1 but don't
support ordered tags, block layer ensures that the requests preceding
a barrier request finishes before issuing the barrier request. Also,
it defers requests following the barrier until the barrier request is
finished. Older SCSI controllers/drives and SATA drives fall in this
category.
iii. Devices which have queue depth of 1. This is a degenerate case
of ii. Just keeping issue order suffices. Ancient SCSI
controllers/drives and IDE drives are in this category.
2. Forced flushing to physcial medium
Again, if you're not gonna do synchronization with disk drives (dang,
it sounds even more appealing now!), the reason you use I/O barriers
is mainly to protect filesystem integrity when power failure or some
other events abruptly stop the drive from operating and possibly make
the drive lose data in its cache. So, I/O barriers need to guarantee
that requests actually get written to non-volatile medium in order.
There are four cases,
i. No write-back cache. Keeping requests ordered is enough.
ii. Write-back cache but no flush operation. There's no way to
gurantee physical-medium commit order. This kind of devices can't to
I/O barriers.
iii. Write-back cache and flush operation but no FUA (forced unit
access). We need two cache flushes - before and after the barrier
request.
iv. Write-back cache, flush operation and FUA. We still need one
flush to make sure requests preceding a barrier are written to medium,
but post-barrier flush can be avoided by using FUA write on the
barrier itself.
How to support barrier requests in drivers
------------------------------------------
All barrier handling is done inside block layer proper. All low level
drivers have to are implementing its prepare_flush_fn and using one
the following two functions to indicate what barrier type it supports
and how to prepare flush requests. Note that the term 'ordered' is
used to indicate the whole sequence of performing barrier requests
including draining and flushing.
typedef void (prepare_flush_fn)(request_queue_t *q, struct request *rq);
int blk_queue_ordered(request_queue_t *q, unsigned ordered,
prepare_flush_fn *prepare_flush_fn,
unsigned gfp_mask);
int blk_queue_ordered_locked(request_queue_t *q, unsigned ordered,
prepare_flush_fn *prepare_flush_fn,
unsigned gfp_mask);
The only difference between the two functions is whether or not the
caller is holding q->queue_lock on entry. The latter expects the
caller is holding the lock.
@q : the queue in question
@ordered : the ordered mode the driver/device supports
@prepare_flush_fn : this function should prepare @rq such that it
flushes cache to physical medium when executed
@gfp_mask : gfp_mask used when allocating data structures
for ordered processing
For example, SCSI disk driver's prepare_flush_fn looks like the
following.
static void sd_prepare_flush(request_queue_t *q, struct request *rq)
{
memset(rq->cmd, 0, sizeof(rq->cmd));
rq->flags |= REQ_BLOCK_PC;
rq->timeout = SD_TIMEOUT;
rq->cmd[0] = SYNCHRONIZE_CACHE;
}
The following seven ordered modes are supported. The following table
shows which mode should be used depending on what features a
device/driver supports. In the leftmost column of table,
QUEUE_ORDERED_ prefix is omitted from the mode names to save space.
The table is followed by description of each mode. Note that in the
descriptions of QUEUE_ORDERED_DRAIN*, '=>' is used whereas '->' is
used for QUEUE_ORDERED_TAG* descriptions. '=>' indicates that the
preceding step must be complete before proceeding to the next step.
'->' indicates that the next step can start as soon as the previous
step is issued.

Random notes/caveats
--------------------
* SCSI layer currently can't use TAG ordering even if the drive,
controller and driver support it. The problem is that SCSI midlayer
request dispatch function is not atomic. It releases queue lock and
switch to SCSI host lock during issue and it's possible and likely to
happen in time that requests change their relative positions. Once
this problem is solved, TAG ordering can be enabled.
* Currently, no matter which ordered mode is used, there can be only
one barrier request in progress. All I/O barriers are held off by
block layer until the previous I/O barrier is complete. This doesn't
make any difference for DRAIN ordered devices, but, for TAG ordered
devices with very high command latency, passing multiple I/O barriers
to low level *might* be helpful if they are very frequent. Well, this
certainly is a non-issue. I'm writing this just to make clear that no
two I/O barrier is ever passed to low-level driver.
* Completion order. Requests in ordered sequence are issued in order
but not required to finish in order. Barrier implementation can
handle out-of-order completion of ordered sequence. IOW, the requests
MUST be processed in order but the hardware/software completion paths
are allowed to reorder completion notifications - eg. current SCSI
midlayer doesn't preserve completion order during error handling.
* Requeueing order. Low-level drivers are free to requeue any request
after they removed it from the request queue with
blkdev_dequeue_request(). As barrier sequence should be kept in order
when requeued, generic elevator code takes care of putting requests in
order around barrier. See blk_ordered_req_seq() and
ELEVATOR_INSERT_REQUEUE handling in __elv_add_request() for details.
Note that block drivers must not requeue preceding requests while
completing latter requests in an ordered sequence. Currently, no
error checking is done against this.
* Error handling. Currently, block layer will report error to upper
layer if any of requests in an ordered sequence fails. Unfortunately,
this doesn't seem to be enough. Look at the following request flow.
QUEUE_ORDERED_TAG_FLUSH is in use.
[0] [1] [2] [3] [pre] [barrier] [post] < [4] [5] [6] ... >
still in elevator
Let's say request [2], [3] are write requests to update file system
metadata (journal or whatever) and [barrier] is used to mark that
those updates are valid. Consider the following sequence.
i. Requests [0] ~ [post] leaves the request queue and enters
low-level driver.
ii. After a while, unfortunately, something goes wrong and the
drive fails [2]. Note that any of [0], [1] and [3] could have
completed by this time, but [pre] couldn't have been finished
as the drive must process it in order and it failed before
processing that command.
iii. Error handling kicks in and determines that the error is
unrecoverable and fails [2], and resumes operation.
iv. [pre] [barrier] [post] gets processed.
v. *BOOM* power fails
The problem here is that the barrier request is *supposed* to indicate
that filesystem update requests [2] and [3] made it safely to the
physical medium and, if the machine crashes after the barrier is
written, filesystem recovery code can depend on that. Sadly, that
isn't true in this case anymore. IOW, the success of a I/O barrier
should also be dependent on success of some of the preceding requests,
where only upper layer (filesystem) knows what 'some' is.
This can be solved by implementing a way to tell the block layer which
requests affect the success of the following barrier request and
making lower lever drivers to resume operation on error only after
block layer tells it to do so.
As the probability of this happening is very low and the drive should
be faulty, implementing the fix is probably an overkill. But, still,
it's there.
* In previous drafts of barrier implementation, there was fallback
mechanism such that, if FUA or ordered TAG fails, less fancy ordered
mode can be selected and the failed barrier request is retried
automatically. The rationale for this feature was that as FUA is
pretty new in ATA world and ordered tag was never used widely, there
could be devices which report to support those features but choke when
actually given such requests.
This was removed for two reasons 1. it's an overkill 2. it's
impossible to implement properly when TAG ordering is used as low
level drivers resume after an error automatically. If it's ever
needed adding it back and modifying low level drivers accordingly
shouldn't be difficult.

Block layer statistics in /sys/block/<dev>/stat
===============================================
This file documents the contents of the /sys/block/<dev>/stat file.
The stat file provides several statistics about the state of block
device <dev>.
Q. Why are there multiple statistics in a single file? Doesn't sysfs
normally contain a single value per file?
A. By having a single file, the kernel can guarantee that the statistics
represent a consistent snapshot of the state of the device. If the
statistics were exported as multiple files containing one statistic
each, it would be impossible to guarantee that a set of readings
represent a single point in time.
The stat file consists of a single line of text containing 11 decimal
values separated by whitespace. The fields are summarized in the
following table, and described in more detail below.

These values count the number of sectors read from or written to this

counters are incremented when the I/O completes.
read ticks, write ticks
=======================
These values count the number of milliseconds that I/O requests have
waited on this block device. If there are multiple I/O requests waiting,
these values will increase at a rate greater than 1000/second; for
example, if 60 read requests wait for an average of 30 ms, the read_ticks
field will increase by 60*30 = 1800.
in_flight
=========
This value counts the number of I/O requests that have been issued to
the device driver but have not yet completed. It does not include I/O
requests that are in the queue but not yet issued to the device driver.
io_ticks
========
This value counts the number of milliseconds during which the device has
had I/O requests queued.
time_in_queue
=============
This value counts the number of milliseconds that I/O requests have waited
on this block device. If there are multiple I/O requests waiting, this
value will increase as the product of the number of milliseconds times the
number of requests waiting (see "read ticks" above for an example).

Introduction
Modern advances in system architectures have introduced advanced error
reporting and correction capabilities in processors. CPU architectures permit
partitioning support, where compute resources of a single CPU could be made
available to virtual machine environments. There are couple OEMS that
support NUMA hardware which are hot pluggable as well, where physical
node insertion and removal require support for CPU hotplug.
Such advances require CPUs available to a kernel to be removed either for
provisioning reasons, or for RAS purposes to keep an offending CPU off
system execution path. Hence the need for CPU hotplug support in the
Linux kernel.
A more novel use of CPU-hotplug support is its use today in suspend
resume support for SMP. Dual-core and HT support makes even
a laptop run SMP kernels which didn't support these methods. SMP support
for suspend/resume is a work in progress.
General Stuff about CPU Hotplug
--------------------------------
Command Line Switches
---------------------
maxcpus=n Restrict boot time cpus to n. Say if you have 4 cpus, using
maxcpus=2 will only boot 2. You can choose to bring the
other cpus later online, read FAQ's for more info.
additional_cpus=n [x86_64 only] use this to limit hotpluggable cpus.
This option sets
cpu_possible_map = cpu_present_map + additional_cpus
CPU maps and such
-----------------
[More on cpumaps and primitive to manipulate, please check
include/linux/cpumask.h that has more descriptive text.]
cpu_possible_map: Bitmap of possible CPUs that can ever be available in the
system. This is used to allocate some boot time memory for per_cpu variables
that aren't designed to grow/shrink as CPUs are made available or removed.
Once set during boot time discovery phase, the map is static, i.e no bits
are added or removed anytime. Trimming it accurately for your system needs
upfront can save some boot time memory. See below for how we use heuristics
in x86_64 case to keep this under check.
cpu_online_map: Bitmap of all CPUs currently online. Its set in __cpu_up()
after a cpu is available for kernel scheduling and ready to receive
interrupts from devices. Its cleared when a cpu is brought down using
__cpu_disable(), before which all OS services including interrupts are
migrated to another target CPU.
cpu_present_map: Bitmap of CPUs currently present in the system. Not all
of them may be online. When physical hotplug is processed by the relevant
subsystem (e.g ACPI) can change and new bit either be added or removed
from the map depending on the event is hot-add/hot-remove. There are currently
no locking rules as of now. Typical usage is to init topology during boot,
at which time hotplug is disabled.
You really dont need to manipulate any of the system cpu maps. They should
be read-only for most use. When setting up per-cpu resources almost always use
cpu_possible_map/for_each_cpu() to iterate.
Never use anything other than cpumask_t to represent bitmap of CPUs.
#include <linux/cpumask.h>
for_each_cpu - Iterate over cpu_possible_map
for_each_online_cpu - Iterate over cpu_online_map
for_each_present_cpu - Iterate over cpu_present_map
for_each_cpu_mask(x,mask) - Iterate over some random collection of cpu mask.
#include <linux/cpu.h>
lock_cpu_hotplug() and unlock_cpu_hotplug():
The above calls are used to inhibit cpu hotplug operations. While holding the
cpucontrol mutex, cpu_online_map will not change. If you merely need to avoid
cpus going away, you could also use preempt_disable() and preempt_enable()
for those sections. Just remember the critical section cannot call any
function that can sleep or schedule this process away. The preempt_disable()
will work as long as stop_machine_run() is used to take a cpu down.
CPU Hotplug - Frequently Asked Questions.
Q: How to i enable my kernel to support CPU hotplug?
A: When doing make defconfig, Enable CPU hotplug support
"Processor type and Features" -> Support for Hotpluggable CPUs
Make sure that you have CONFIG_HOTPLUG, and CONFIG_SMP turned on as well.
You would need to enable CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU for SMP suspend/resume support
as well.
Q: What architectures support CPU hotplug?
A: As of 2.6.14, the following architectures support CPU hotplug.
i386 (Intel), ppc, ppc64, parisc, s390, ia64 and x86_64
Q: How to test if hotplug is supported on the newly built kernel?
A: You should now notice an entry in sysfs.
Check if sysfs is mounted, using the "mount" command. You should notice
an entry as shown below in the output.
....
none on /sys type sysfs (rw)
....
if this is not mounted, do the following.
#mkdir /sysfs
#mount -t sysfs sys /sys
now you should see entries for all present cpu, the following is an example
in a 8-way system.
#pwd
#/sys/devices/system/cpu
#ls -l
total 0
drwxr-xr-x 10 root root 0 Sep 19 07:44 .
drwxr-xr-x 13 root root 0 Sep 19 07:45 ..
drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 0 Sep 19 07:44 cpu0
drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 0 Sep 19 07:44 cpu1
drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 0 Sep 19 07:44 cpu2
drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 0 Sep 19 07:44 cpu3
drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 0 Sep 19 07:44 cpu4
drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 0 Sep 19 07:44 cpu5
drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 0 Sep 19 07:44 cpu6
drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 0 Sep 19 07:48 cpu7
Under each directory you would find an "online" file which is the control
file to logically online/offline a processor.
Q: Does hot-add/hot-remove refer to physical add/remove of cpus?
A: The usage of hot-add/remove may not be very consistently used in the code.
CONFIG_CPU_HOTPLUG enables logical online/offline capability in the kernel.
To support physical addition/removal, one would need some BIOS hooks and
the platform should have something like an attention button in PCI hotplug.
CONFIG_ACPI_HOTPLUG_CPU enables ACPI support for physical add/remove of CPUs.
Q: How do i logically offline a CPU?
A: Do the following.
#echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/online
once the logical offline is successful, check
#cat /proc/interrupts
you should now not see the CPU that you removed. Also online file will report
the state as 0 when a cpu if offline and 1 when its online.
#To display the current cpu state.
#cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/online
Q: Why cant i remove CPU0 on some systems?
A: Some architectures may have some special dependency on a certain CPU.
For e.g in IA64 platforms we have ability to sent platform interrupts to the
OS. a.k.a Corrected Platform Error Interrupts (CPEI). In current ACPI
specifications, we didn't have a way to change the target CPU. Hence if the
current ACPI version doesn't support such re-direction, we disable that CPU
by making it not-removable.
In such cases you will also notice that the online file is missing under cpu0.
Q: How do i find out if a particular CPU is not removable?
A: Depending on the implementation, some architectures may show this by the
absence of the "online" file. This is done if it can be determined ahead of
time that this CPU cannot be removed.
In some situations, this can be a run time check, i.e if you try to remove the
last CPU, this will not be permitted. You can find such failures by
investigating the return value of the "echo" command.
Q: What happens when a CPU is being logically offlined?
A: The following happen, listed in no particular order :-)
- A notification is sent to in-kernel registered modules by sending an event
CPU_DOWN_PREPARE
- All process is migrated away from this outgoing CPU to a new CPU
- All interrupts targeted to this CPU is migrated to a new CPU
- timers/bottom half/task lets are also migrated to a new CPU
- Once all services are migrated, kernel calls an arch specific routine
__cpu_disable() to perform arch specific cleanup.
- Once this is successful, an event for successful cleanup is sent by an event
CPU_DEAD.
"It is expected that each service cleans up when the CPU_DOWN_PREPARE
notifier is called, when CPU_DEAD is called its expected there is nothing
running on behalf of this CPU that was offlined"
Q: If i have some kernel code that needs to be aware of CPU arrival and
departure, how to i arrange for proper notification?
A: This is what you would need in your kernel code to receive notifications.
#include <linux/cpu.h>
static int __cpuinit foobar_cpu_callback(struct notifier_block *nfb,
unsigned long action, void *hcpu)
{
unsigned int cpu = (unsigned long)hcpu;
switch (action) {
case CPU_ONLINE:
foobar_online_action(cpu);
break;
case CPU_DEAD:
foobar_dead_action(cpu);
break;
}
return NOTIFY_OK;
}
static struct notifier_block foobar_cpu_notifer =
{
.notifier_call = foobar_cpu_callback,
};
In your init function,
register_cpu_notifier(&foobar_cpu_notifier);
You can fail PREPARE notifiers if something doesn't work to prepare resources.
This will stop the activity and send a following CANCELED event back.
CPU_DEAD should not be failed, its just a goodness indication, but bad
things will happen if a notifier in path sent a BAD notify code.
Q: I don't see my action being called for all CPUs already up and running?
A: Yes, CPU notifiers are called only when new CPUs are on-lined or offlined.
If you need to perform some action for each cpu already in the system, then
for_each_online_cpu(i) {
foobar_cpu_callback(&foobar_cpu_notifier, CPU_UP_PREPARE, i);
foobar_cpu_callback(&foobar-cpu_notifier, CPU_ONLINE, i);
}
Q: If i would like to develop cpu hotplug support for a new architecture,
what do i need at a minimum?
A: The following are what is required for CPU hotplug infrastructure to work
correctly.
- Make sure you have an entry in Kconfig to enable CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU
- __cpu_up() - Arch interface to bring up a CPU
- __cpu_disable() - Arch interface to shutdown a CPU, no more interrupts
can be handled by the kernel after the routine
returns. Including local APIC timers etc are
shutdown.
- __cpu_die() - This actually supposed to ensure death of the CPU.
Actually look at some example code in other arch
that implement CPU hotplug. The processor is taken
down from the idle() loop for that specific
architecture. __cpu_die() typically waits for some
per_cpu state to be set, to ensure the processor
dead routine is called to be sure positively.
Q: I need to ensure that a particular cpu is not removed when there is some
work specific to this cpu is in progress.
A: First switch the current thread context to preferred cpu
int my_func_on_cpu(int cpu)
{
cpumask_t saved_mask, new_mask = CPU_MASK_NONE;
int curr_cpu, err = 0;
saved_mask = current->cpus_allowed;
cpu_set(cpu, new_mask);
err = set_cpus_allowed(current, new_mask);
if (err)
return err;
/*
* If we got scheduled out just after the return from
* set_cpus_allowed() before running the work, this ensures
* we stay locked.
*/
curr_cpu = get_cpu();
if (curr_cpu != cpu) {
err = -EAGAIN;
goto ret;
} else {
/*
* Do work : But cant sleep, since get_cpu() disables preempt
*/
}
ret:
put_cpu();
set_cpus_allowed(current, saved_mask);
return err;
}
Q: How do we determine how many CPUs are available for hotplug.
A: There is no clear spec defined way from ACPI that can give us that
information today. Based on some input from Natalie of Unisys,
that the ACPI MADT (Multiple APIC Description Tables) marks those possible
CPUs in a system with disabled status.
Andi implemented some simple heuristics that count the number of disabled
CPUs in MADT as hotpluggable CPUS. In the case there are no disabled CPUS
we assume 1/2 the number of CPUs currently present can be hotplugged.
Caveat: Today's ACPI MADT can only provide 256 entries since the apicid field
in MADT is only 8 bits.
User Space Notification
Hotplug support for devices is common in Linux today. Its being used today to
support automatic configuration of network, usb and pci devices. A hotplug
event can be used to invoke an agent script to perform the configuration task.
You can add /etc/hotplug/cpu.agent to handle hotplug notification user space
scripts.
#!/bin/bash

#ACTION=%s [online or offline]

1.4 How do I use cpusets ?
1.4 What are exclusive cpusets ?
--------------------------------
If a cpuset is cpu or mem exclusive, no other cpuset, other than
a direct ancestor or descendent, may share any of the same CPUs or
Memory Nodes.
A cpuset that is cpu_exclusive has a scheduler (sched) domain
associated with it. The sched domain consists of all CPUs in the
current cpuset that are not part of any exclusive child cpusets.
This ensures that the scheduler load balancing code only balances
against the CPUs that are in the sched domain as defined above and
not all of the CPUs in the system. This removes any overhead due to
load balancing code trying to pull tasks outside of the cpu_exclusive
cpuset only to be prevented by the tasks' cpus_allowed mask.
A cpuset that is mem_exclusive restricts kernel allocations for
page, buffer and other data commonly shared by the kernel across
multiple users. All cpusets, whether mem_exclusive or not, restrict
allocations of memory for user space. This enables configuring a
system so that several independent jobs can share common kernel data,
such as file system pages, while isolating each jobs user allocation in
its own cpuset. To do this, construct a large mem_exclusive cpuset to
hold all the jobs, and construct child, non-mem_exclusive cpusets for
each individual job. Only a small amount of typical kernel memory,
such as requests from interrupt handlers, is allowed to be taken
outside even a mem_exclusive cpuset.
1.5 What does notify_on_release do ?
------------------------------------
If the notify_on_release flag is enabled (1) in a cpuset, then whenever
the last task in the cpuset leaves (exits or attaches to some other
cpuset) and the last child cpuset of that cpuset is removed, then
the kernel runs the command /sbin/cpuset_release_agent, supplying the
pathname (relative to the mount point of the cpuset file system) of the
abandoned cpuset. This enables automatic removal of abandoned cpusets.
The default value of notify_on_release in the root cpuset at system
boot is disabled (0). The default value of other cpusets at creation
is the current value of their parents notify_on_release setting.
1.6 What is memory_pressure ?
-----------------------------
The memory_pressure of a cpuset provides a simple per-cpuset metric
of the rate that the tasks in a cpuset are attempting to free up in
use memory on the nodes of the cpuset to satisfy additional memory
requests.
This enables batch managers monitoring jobs running in dedicated
cpusets to efficiently detect what level of memory pressure that job
is causing.
This is useful both on tightly managed systems running a wide mix of
submitted jobs, which may choose to terminate or re-prioritize jobs that
are trying to use more memory than allowed on the nodes assigned them,
and with tightly coupled, long running, massively parallel scientific
computing jobs that will dramatically fail to meet required performance
goals if they start to use more memory than allowed to them.
This mechanism provides a very economical way for the batch manager
to monitor a cpuset for signs of memory pressure. It's up to the
batch manager or other user code to decide what to do about it and
take action.
==> Unless this feature is enabled by writing "1" to the special file
/dev/cpuset/memory_pressure_enabled, the hook in the rebalance
code of __alloc_pages() for this metric reduces to simply noticing
that the cpuset_memory_pressure_enabled flag is zero. So only
systems that enable this feature will compute the metric.
Why a per-cpuset, running average:
Because this meter is per-cpuset, rather than per-task or mm,
the system load imposed by a batch scheduler monitoring this
metric is sharply reduced on large systems, because a scan of
the tasklist can be avoided on each set of queries.
Because this meter is a running average, instead of an accumulating
counter, a batch scheduler can detect memory pressure with a
single read, instead of having to read and accumulate results
for a period of time.
Because this meter is per-cpuset rather than per-task or mm,
the batch scheduler can obtain the key information, memory
pressure in a cpuset, with a single read, rather than having to
query and accumulate results over all the (dynamically changing)
set of tasks in the cpuset.
A per-cpuset simple digital filter (requires a spinlock and 3 words
of data per-cpuset) is kept, and updated by any task attached to that
cpuset, if it enters the synchronous (direct) page reclaim code.
A per-cpuset file provides an integer number representing the recent
(half-life of 10 seconds) rate of direct page reclaims caused by
the tasks in the cpuset, in units of reclaims attempted per second,
times 1000.

Normally, once a page is allocated (given a physical page
of main memory) then that page stays on whatever node it
was allocated, so long as it remains allocated, even if the
cpusets memory placement policy 'mems' subsequently changes.
If the cpuset flag file 'memory_migrate' is set true, then when
tasks are attached to that cpuset, any pages that task had
allocated to it on nodes in its previous cpuset are migrated
to the tasks new cpuset. Depending on the implementation,
this migration may either be done by swapping the page out,
so that the next time the page is referenced, it will be paged
into the tasks new cpuset, usually on the node where it was
referenced, or this migration may be done by directly copying
the pages from the tasks previous cpuset to the new cpuset,
where possible to the same node, relative to the new cpuset,
as the node that held the page, relative to the old cpuset.
Also if 'memory_migrate' is set true, then if that cpusets
'mems' file is modified, pages allocated to tasks in that
cpuset, that were on nodes in the previous setting of 'mems',
will be moved to nodes in the new setting of 'mems.' Again,
depending on the implementation, this might be done by swapping,
or by direct copying. In either case, pages that were not in
the tasks prior cpuset, or in the cpusets prior 'mems' setting,
will not be moved.

EDAC - Error Detection And Correction
Written by Doug Thompson <norsk5@xmission.com>
7 Dec 2005
EDAC was written by:
Thayne Harbaugh,
modified by Dave Peterson, Doug Thompson, et al,
from the bluesmoke.sourceforge.net project.
============================================================================
EDAC PURPOSE
The 'edac' kernel module goal is to detect and report errors that occur
within the computer system. In the initial release, memory Correctable Errors
(CE) and Uncorrectable Errors (UE) are the primary errors being harvested.
Detecting CE events, then harvesting those events and reporting them,
CAN be a predictor of future UE events. With CE events, the system can
continue to operate, but with less safety. Preventive maintainence and
proactive part replacement of memory DIMMs exhibiting CEs can reduce
the likelihood of the dreaded UE events and system 'panics'.
In addition, PCI Bus Parity and SERR Errors are scanned for on PCI devices
in order to determine if errors are occurring on data transfers.
The presence of PCI Parity errors must be examined with a grain of salt.
There are several addin adapters that do NOT follow the PCI specification
with regards to Parity generation and reporting. The specification says
the vendor should tie the parity status bits to 0 if they do not intend
to generate parity. Some vendors do not do this, and thus the parity bit
can "float" giving false positives.
The PCI Parity EDAC device has the ability to "skip" known flakey
cards during the parity scan. These are set by the parity "blacklist"
interface in the sysfs for PCI Parity. (See the PCI section in the sysfs
section below.) There is also a parity "whitelist" which is used as
an explicit list of devices to scan, while the blacklist is a list
of devices to skip.
EDAC will have future error detectors that will be added or integrated
into EDAC in the following list:
MCE Machine Check Exception
MCA Machine Check Architecture
NMI NMI notification of ECC errors
MSRs Machine Specific Register error cases
and other mechanisms.
These errors are usually bus errors, ECC errors, thermal throttling
and the like.
============================================================================
EDAC VERSIONING
EDAC is composed of a "core" module (edac_mc.ko) and several Memory
Controller (MC) driver modules. On a given system, the CORE
is loaded and one MC driver will be loaded. Both the CORE and
the MC driver have individual versions that reflect current release
level of their respective modules. Thus, to "report" on what version
a system is running, one must report both the CORE's and the
MC driver's versions.
LOADING
If 'edac' was statically linked with the kernel then no loading is
necessary. If 'edac' was built as modules then simply modprobe the
'edac' pieces that you need. You should be able to modprobe
hardware-specific modules and have the dependencies load the necessary core
modules.
Example:
$> modprobe amd76x_edac
loads both the amd76x_edac.ko memory controller module and the edac_mc.ko
core module.
============================================================================
EDAC sysfs INTERFACE
EDAC presents a 'sysfs' interface for control, reporting and attribute
reporting purposes.
EDAC lives in the /sys/devices/system/edac directory. Within this directory
there currently reside 2 'edac' components:
mc memory controller(s) system
pci PCI status system
============================================================================
Memory Controller (mc) Model
First a background on the memory controller's model abstracted in EDAC.
Each mc device controls a set of DIMM memory modules. These modules are
layed out in a Chip-Select Row (csrowX) and Channel table (chX). There can
be multiple csrows and two channels.
Memory controllers allow for several csrows, with 8 csrows being a typical value.
Yet, the actual number of csrows depends on the electrical "loading"
of a given motherboard, memory controller and DIMM characteristics.
Dual channels allows for 128 bit data transfers to the CPU from memory.
Channel 0 Channel 1
===================================
csrow0 | DIMM_A0 | DIMM_B0 |
csrow1 | DIMM_A0 | DIMM_B0 |
===================================
===================================
csrow2 | DIMM_A1 | DIMM_B1 |
csrow3 | DIMM_A1 | DIMM_B1 |
===================================
In the above example table there are 4 physical slots on the motherboard
for memory DIMMs:
DIMM_A0
DIMM_B0
DIMM_A1
DIMM_B1
Labels for these slots are usually silk screened on the motherboard. Slots
labeled 'A' are channel 0 in this example. Slots labled 'B'
are channel 1. Notice that there are two csrows possible on a
physical DIMM. These csrows are allocated their csrow assignment
based on the slot into which the memory DIMM is placed. Thus, when 1 DIMM
is placed in each Channel, the csrows cross both DIMMs.
Memory DIMMs come single or dual "ranked". A rank is a populated csrow.
Thus, 2 single ranked DIMMs, placed in slots DIMM_A0 and DIMM_B0 above
will have 1 csrow, csrow0. csrow1 will be empty. On the other hand,
when 2 dual ranked DIMMs are similiaryly placed, then both csrow0 and
csrow1 will be populated. The pattern repeats itself for csrow2 and
csrow3.
The representation of the above is reflected in the directory tree
in EDAC's sysfs interface. Starting in directory
/sys/devices/system/edac/mc each memory controller will be represented
by its own 'mcX' directory, where 'X" is the index of the MC.
..../edac/mc/
|
|->mc0
|->mc1
|->mc2
....
Under each 'mcX' directory each 'csrowX' is again represented by a
'csrowX', where 'X" is the csrow index:
.../mc/mc0/
|
|->csrow0
|->csrow2
|->csrow3
....
Notice that there is no csrow1, which indicates that csrow0 is
composed of a single ranked DIMMs. This should also apply in both
Channels, in order to have dual-channel mode be operational. Since
both csrow2 and csrow3 are populated, this indicates a dual ranked
set of DIMMs for channels 0 and 1.
Within each of the 'mc','mcX' and 'csrowX' directories are several
EDAC control and attribute files.
============================================================================
DIRECTORY 'mc'
In directory 'mc' are EDAC system overall control and attribute files:
Panic on UE control file:
'panic_on_ue'
An uncorrectable error will cause a machine panic. This is usually
desirable. It is a bad idea to continue when an uncorrectable error
occurs - it is indeterminate what was uncorrected and the operating
system context might be so mangled that continuing will lead to further
corruption. If the kernel has MCE configured, then EDAC will never
notice the UE.
LOAD TIME: module/kernel parameter: panic_on_ue=[0|1]
RUN TIME: echo "1" >/sys/devices/system/edac/mc/panic_on_ue
Log UE control file:
'log_ue'
Generate kernel messages describing uncorrectable errors. These errors
are reported through the system message log system. UE statistics
will be accumulated even when UE logging is disabled.
LOAD TIME: module/kernel parameter: log_ue=[0|1]
RUN TIME: echo "1" >/sys/devices/system/edac/mc/log_ue
Log CE control file:
'log_ce'
Generate kernel messages describing correctable errors. These
errors are reported through the system message log system.
CE statistics will be accumulated even when CE logging is disabled.
LOAD TIME: module/kernel parameter: log_ce=[0|1]
RUN TIME: echo "1" >/sys/devices/system/edac/mc/log_ce
Polling period control file:
'poll_msec'
The time period, in milliseconds, for polling for error information.
Too small a value wastes resources. Too large a value might delay
necessary handling of errors and might loose valuable information for
locating the error. 1000 milliseconds (once each second) is about
right for most uses.
LOAD TIME: module/kernel parameter: poll_msec=[0|1]
RUN TIME: echo "1000" >/sys/devices/system/edac/mc/poll_msec
Module Version read-only attribute file:
'mc_version'
The EDAC CORE modules's version and compile date are shown here to
indicate what EDAC is running.
============================================================================
'mcX' DIRECTORIES
In 'mcX' directories are EDAC control and attribute files for
this 'X" instance of the memory controllers:
Counter reset control file:
'reset_counters'
This write-only control file will zero all the statistical counters
for UE and CE errors. Zeroing the counters will also reset the timer
indicating how long since the last counter zero. This is useful
for computing errors/time. Since the counters are always reset at
driver initialization time, no module/kernel parameter is available.
RUN TIME: echo "anything" >/sys/devices/system/edac/mc/mc0/counter_reset
This resets the counters on memory controller 0
Seconds since last counter reset control file:
'seconds_since_reset'
This attribute file displays how many seconds have elapsed since the
last counter reset. This can be used with the error counters to
measure error rates.
DIMM capability attribute file:
'edac_capability'
The EDAC (Error Detection and Correction) capabilities/modes of
the memory controller hardware.
DIMM Current Capability attribute file:
'edac_current_capability'
The EDAC capabilities available with the hardware
configuration. This may not be the same as "EDAC capability"
if the correct memory is not used. If a memory controller is
capable of EDAC, but DIMMs without check bits are in use, then
Parity, SECDED, S4ECD4ED capabilities will not be available
even though the memory controller might be capable of those
modes with the proper memory loaded.
Memory Type supported on this controller attribute file:
'supported_mem_type'
This attribute file displays the memory type, usually
buffered and unbuffered DIMMs.
Memory Controller name attribute file:
'mc_name'
This attribute file displays the type of memory controller
that is being utilized.
Memory Controller Module name attribute file:
'module_name'
This attribute file displays the memory controller module name,
version and date built. The name of the memory controller
hardware - some drivers work with multiple controllers and
this field shows which hardware is present.
Total memory managed by this memory controller attribute file:
'size_mb'
This attribute file displays, in count of megabytes, of memory
that this instance of memory controller manages.
Total Uncorrectable Errors count attribute file:
'ue_count'
This attribute file displays the total count of uncorrectable
errors that have occurred on this memory controller. If panic_on_ue
is set this counter will not have a chance to increment,
since EDAC will panic the system.
Total UE count that had no information attribute fileY:
'ue_noinfo_count'
This attribute file displays the number of UEs that
have occurred have occurred with no informations as to which DIMM
slot is having errors.
Total Correctable Errors count attribute file:
'ce_count'
This attribute file displays the total count of correctable
errors that have occurred on this memory controller. This
count is very important to examine. CEs provide early
indications that a DIMM is beginning to fail. This count
field should be monitored for non-zero values and report
such information to the system administrator.
Total Correctable Errors count attribute file:
'ce_noinfo_count'
This attribute file displays the number of CEs that
have occurred wherewith no informations as to which DIMM slot
is having errors. Memory is handicapped, but operational,
yet no information is available to indicate which slot
the failing memory is in. This count field should be also
be monitored for non-zero values.

============================================================================
'csrowX' DIRECTORIES
In the 'csrowX' directories are EDAC control and attribute files for
this 'X" instance of csrow:
Total Uncorrectable Errors count attribute file:
'ue_count'
This attribute file displays the total count of uncorrectable
errors that have occurred on this csrow. If panic_on_ue is set
this counter will not have a chance to increment, since EDAC
will panic the system.

errors that have occurred on this csrow. This
count is very important to examine. CEs provide early
indications that a DIMM is beginning to fail. This count
field should be monitored for non-zero values and report
such information to the system administrator.
Total memory managed by this csrow attribute file:
'size_mb'
This attribute file displays, in count of megabytes, of memory
that this csrow contatins.
Memory Type attribute file:
'mem_type'
This attribute file will display what type of memory is currently
on this csrow. Normally, either buffered or unbuffered memory.
EDAC Mode of operation attribute file:
'edac_mode'
This attribute file will display what type of Error detection
and correction is being utilized.
Device type attribute file:
'dev_type'
This attribute file will display what type of DIMM device is
being utilized. Example: x4
Channel 0 CE Count attribute file:
'ch0_ce_count'
This attribute file will display the count of CEs on this
DIMM located in channel 0.
Channel 0 UE Count attribute file:
'ch0_ue_count'
This attribute file will display the count of UEs on this
DIMM located in channel 0.
Channel 0 DIMM Label control file:
'ch0_dimm_label'
This control file allows this DIMM to have a label assigned
to it. With this label in the module, when errors occur
the output can provide the DIMM label in the system log.
This becomes vital for panic events to isolate the
cause of the UE event.
DIMM Labels must be assigned after booting, with information
that correctly identifies the physical slot with its
silk screen label. This information is currently very
motherboard specific and determination of this information
must occur in userland at this time.
Channel 1 CE Count attribute file:
'ch1_ce_count'
This attribute file will display the count of CEs on this
DIMM located in channel 1.
Channel 1 UE Count attribute file:
'ch1_ue_count'
This attribute file will display the count of UEs on this
DIMM located in channel 0.
Channel 1 DIMM Label control file:
'ch1_dimm_label'
This control file allows this DIMM to have a label assigned
to it. With this label in the module, when errors occur
the output can provide the DIMM label in the system log.
This becomes vital for panic events to isolate the

silk screen label. This information is currently very

============================================================================
SYSTEM LOGGING
If logging for UEs and CEs are enabled then system logs will have
error notices indicating errors that have been detected:
MC0: CE page 0x283, offset 0xce0, grain 8, syndrome 0x6ec3, row 0,
channel 1 "DIMM_B1": amd76x_edac
MC0: CE page 0x1e5, offset 0xfb0, grain 8, syndrome 0xb741, row 0,
channel 1 "DIMM_B1": amd76x_edac
The structure of the message is:
the memory controller (MC0)
Error type (CE)
memory page (0x283)
offset in the page (0xce0)
the byte granularity (grain 8)
or resolution of the error
the error syndrome (0xb741)
memory row (row 0)
memory channel (channel 1)
DIMM label, if set prior (DIMM B1
and then an optional, driver-specific message that may
have additional information.
Both UEs and CEs with no info will lack all but memory controller,
error type, a notice of "no info" and then an optional,
driver-specific error message.
============================================================================
PCI Bus Parity Detection
On Header Type 00 devices the primary status is looked at
for any parity error regardless of whether Parity is enabled on the
device. (The spec indicates parity is generated in some cases).
On Header Type 01 bridges, the secondary status register is also
looked at to see if parity ocurred on the bus on the other side of
the bridge.
SYSFS CONFIGURATION
Under /sys/devices/system/edac/pci are control and attribute files as follows:
Enable/Disable PCI Parity checking control file:
'check_pci_parity'
This control file enables or disables the PCI Bus Parity scanning
operation. Writing a 1 to this file enables the scanning. Writing
a 0 to this file disables the scanning.
Enable:
echo "1" >/sys/devices/system/edac/pci/check_pci_parity
Disable:
echo "0" >/sys/devices/system/edac/pci/check_pci_parity
Panic on PCI PARITY Error:
'panic_on_pci_parity'
This control files enables or disables panic'ing when a parity
error has been detected.

Parity Count:
'pci_parity_count'
This attribute file will display the number of parity errors that
have been detected.
PCI Device Whitelist:
'pci_parity_whitelist'
This control file allows for an explicit list of PCI devices to be
scanned for parity errors. Only devices found on this list will
be examined. The list is a line of hexadecimel VENDOR and DEVICE
ID tuples:
1022:7450,1434:16a6
One or more can be inserted, seperated by a comma.
To write the above list doing the following as one command line:
echo "1022:7450,1434:16a6"
> /sys/devices/system/edac/pci/pci_parity_whitelist
To display what the whitelist is, simply 'cat' the same file.
PCI Device Blacklist:
'pci_parity_blacklist'
This control file allows for a list of PCI devices to be
skipped for scanning.
The list is a line of hexadecimel VENDOR and DEVICE ID tuples:

simply 'cat' the same file.
=======================================================================
PCI Vendor and Devices IDs can be obtained with the lspci command. Using
the -n option lspci will display the vendor and device IDs. The system
adminstrator will have to determine which devices should be scanned or
skipped.
The two lists (white and black) are prioritized. blacklist is the lower
priority and will NOT be utilized when a whitelist has been set.
Turn OFF a whitelist by an empty echo command:
echo > /sys/devices/system/edac/pci/pci_parity_whitelist
and any previous blacklist will be utililzed.

The Journaling Block Device layer (JBD) isn't ext3 specific. It was
design to add journaling capabilities on a block device. The ext3
filesystem code will inform the JBD of modifications it is performing
(Call a transaction). the journal support the transactions start and

Data Mode
---------
There's 3 different data modes:
There are 3 different data modes:
* writeback mode
In data=writeback mode, ext3 does not journal data at all. This mode
provides a similar level of journaling as XFS, JFS, and ReiserFS in its
default mode - metadata journaling. A crash+recovery can cause
incorrect data to appear in files which were written shortly before the
crash. This mode will typically provide the best ext3 performance.

* ordered mode
In data=ordered mode, ext3 only officially journals metadata, but it
logically groups metadata and data blocks into a single unit called a
transaction. When it's time to write the new metadata out to disk, the
associated data blocks are written first. In general, this mode
perform slightly slower than writeback but significantly faster than
journal mode.
In data=ordered mode, ext3 only officially journals metadata, but it logically
groups metadata and data blocks into a single unit called a transaction. When
it's time to write the new metadata out to disk, the associated data blocks
are written first. In general, this mode performs slightly slower than
writeback but significantly faster than journal mode.
* journal mode
data=journal mode provides full data and metadata journaling. All new
data is written to the journal first, and then to its final location.
In the event of a crash, the journal can be replayed, bringing both
data and metadata into a consistent state. This mode is the slowest
except when data needs to be read from and written to disk at the same
time where it outperform all others mode.

Sysfs
~~~~~
FUSE sets up the following hierarchy in sysfs:
/sys/fs/fuse/connections/N/
where N is an increasing number allocated to each new connection.
For each connection the following attributes are defined:
'waiting'
The number of requests which are waiting to be transfered to
userspace or being processed by the filesystem daemon. If there is
no filesystem activity and 'waiting' is non-zero, then the
filesystem is hung or deadlocked.
'abort'
Writing anything into this file will abort the filesystem
connection. This means that all waiting requests will be aborted an
error returned for all aborted and new requests.
Only a privileged user may read or write these attributes.
Aborting a filesystem connection
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It is possible to get into certain situations where the filesystem is
not responding. Reasons for this may be:
a) Broken userspace filesystem implementation
b) Network connection down
c) Accidental deadlock
d) Malicious deadlock
(For more on c) and d) see later sections)
In either of these cases it may be useful to abort the connection to
the filesystem. There are several ways to do this:
- Kill the filesystem daemon. Works in case of a) and b)
- Kill the filesystem daemon and all users of the filesystem. Works
in all cases except some malicious deadlocks
- Use forced umount (umount -f). Works in all cases but only if
filesystem is still attached (it hasn't been lazy unmounted)
- Abort filesystem through the sysfs interface. Most powerful
method, always works.

Why cpio rather than tar?
-------------------------
This decision was made back in December, 2001. The discussion started here:
http://www.uwsg.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0112.2/1538.html
And spawned a second thread (specifically on tar vs cpio), starting here:
http://www.uwsg.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0112.2/1587.html
The quick and dirty summary version (which is no substitute for reading
the above threads) is:
1) cpio is a standard. It's decades old (from the AT&T days), and already
widely used on Linux (inside RPM, Red Hat's device driver disks). Here's
a Linux Journal article about it from 1996:
http://www.linuxjournal.com/article/1213
It's not as popular as tar because the traditional cpio command line tools
require _truly_hideous_ command line arguments. But that says nothing
either way about the archive format, and there are alternative tools,
such as:
http://freshmeat.net/projects/afio/
2) The cpio archive format chosen by the kernel is simpler and cleaner (and
thus easier to create and parse) than any of the (literally dozens of)
various tar archive formats. The complete initramfs archive format is
explained in buffer-format.txt, created in usr/gen_init_cpio.c, and
extracted in init/initramfs.c. All three together come to less than 26k
total of human-readable text.
3) The GNU project standardizing on tar is approximately as relevant as
Windows standardizing on zip. Linux is not part of either, and is free
to make its own technical decisions.
4) Since this is a kernel internal format, it could easily have been
something brand new. The kernel provides its own tools to create and
extract this format anyway. Using an existing standard was preferable,
but not essential.
5) Al Viro made the decision (quote: "tar is ugly as hell and not going to be
supported on the kernel side"):
http://www.uwsg.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0112.2/1540.html
explained his reasoning:

================================
relayfs itself is ready to use, but to make things easier, two
additional systems are provided. klog is a simple wrapper to make
writing formatted text or raw data to a channel simpler, regardless of
whether a channel to write into exists or not, or whether relayfs is
compiled into the kernel or is configured as a module. relay-app is
the kernel counterpart of userspace librelay.c, combined these two
files provide glue to easily stream data to disk, without having to
bother with housekeeping. klog and relay-app can be used together,
with klog providing high-level logging functions to the kernel and
relay-app taking care of kernel-user control and disk-logging chores.
relayfs itself is ready to use, but to make things easier, a couple
simple utility functions and a set of examples are provided.
It is possible to use relayfs without relay-app & librelay, but you'll
have to implement communication between userspace and kernel, allowing
both to convey the state of buffers (full, empty, amount of padding).
The relay-apps example tarball, available on the relayfs sourceforge
site, contains a set of self-contained examples, each consisting of a
pair of .c files containing boilerplate code for each of the user and
kernel sides of a relayfs application; combined these two sets of
boilerplate code provide glue to easily stream data to disk, without
having to bother with mundane housekeeping chores.
The 'klog debugging functions' patch (klog.patch in the relay-apps
tarball) provides a couple of high-level logging functions to the
kernel which allow writing formatted text or raw data to a channel,
regardless of whether a channel to write into exists or not, or
whether relayfs is compiled into the kernel or is configured as a
module. These functions allow you to put unconditional 'trace'
statements anywhere in the kernel or kernel modules; only when there
is a 'klog handler' registered will data actually be logged (see the
klog and kleak examples for details).
It is of course possible to use relayfs from scratch i.e. without
using any of the relay-apps example code or klog, but you'll have to
implement communication between userspace and kernel, allowing both to
convey the state of buffers (full, empty, amount of padding).

Creating non-relay files
------------------------
relay_open() automatically creates files in the relayfs filesystem to
represent the per-cpu kernel buffers; it's often useful for
applications to be able to create their own files alongside the relay
files in the relayfs filesystem as well e.g. 'control' files much like
those created in /proc or debugfs for similar purposes, used to
communicate control information between the kernel and user sides of a
relayfs application. For this purpose the relayfs_create_file() and
relayfs_remove_file() API functions exist. For relayfs_create_file(),
the caller passes in a set of user-defined file operations to be used
for the file and an optional void * to a user-specified data item,
which will be accessible via inode->u.generic_ip (see the relay-apps
tarball for examples). The file_operations are a required parameter
to relayfs_create_file() and thus the semantics of these files are
completely defined by the caller.
See the relay-apps tarball at http://relayfs.sourceforge.net for
examples of how these non-relay files are meant to be used.
Creating relay files in other filesystems
-----------------------------------------
By default of course, relay_open() creates relay files in the relayfs
filesystem. Because relay_file_operations is exported, however, it's
also possible to create and use relay files in other pseudo-filesytems
such as debugfs.
For this purpose, two callback functions are provided,
create_buf_file() and remove_buf_file(). create_buf_file() is called
once for each per-cpu buffer from relay_open() to allow the client to
create a file to be used to represent the corresponding buffer; if
this callback is not defined, the default implementation will create
and return a file in the relayfs filesystem to represent the buffer.
The callback should return the dentry of the file created to represent
the relay buffer. Note that the parent directory passed to
relay_open() (and passed along to the callback), if specified, must
exist in the same filesystem the new relay file is created in. If
create_buf_file() is defined, remove_buf_file() must also be defined;
it's responsible for deleting the file(s) created in create_buf_file()
and is called during relay_close().
The create_buf_file() implementation can also be defined in such a way
as to allow the creation of a single 'global' buffer instead of the
default per-cpu set. This can be useful for applications interested
mainly in seeing the relative ordering of system-wide events without
the need to bother with saving explicit timestamps for the purpose of
merging/sorting per-cpu files in a postprocessing step.
To have relay_open() create a global buffer, the create_buf_file()
implementation should set the value of the is_global outparam to a
non-zero value in addition to creating the file that will be used to
represent the single buffer. In the case of a global buffer,
create_buf_file() and remove_buf_file() will be called only once. The
normal channel-writing functions e.g. relay_write() can still be used
- writes from any cpu will transparently end up in the global buffer -
but since it is a global buffer, callers should make sure they use the
proper locking for such a buffer, either by wrapping writes in a
spinlock, or by copying a write function from relayfs_fs.h and
creating a local version that internally does the proper locking.
See the 'exported-relayfile' examples in the relay-apps tarball for
examples of creating and using relay files in debugfs.

SPUFS(2) Linux Programmer's Manual SPUFS(2)
NAME
spufs - the SPU file system
DESCRIPTION
The SPU file system is used on PowerPC machines that implement the Cell
Broadband Engine Architecture in order to access Synergistic Processor
Units (SPUs).
The file system provides a name space similar to posix shared memory or
message queues. Users that have write permissions on the file system
can use spu_create(2) to establish SPU contexts in the spufs root.
Every SPU context is represented by a directory containing a predefined
set of files. These files can be used for manipulating the state of the
logical SPU. Users can change permissions on those files, but not actu-
ally add or remove files.
MOUNT OPTIONS
uid=<uid>
set the user owning the mount point, the default is 0 (root).
gid=<gid>
set the group owning the mount point, the default is 0 (root).
FILES
The files in spufs mostly follow the standard behavior for regular sys-
tem calls like read(2) or write(2), but often support only a subset of
the operations supported on regular file systems. This list details the
supported operations and the deviations from the behaviour in the
respective man pages.
All files that support the read(2) operation also support readv(2) and
all files that support the write(2) operation also support writev(2).
All files support the access(2) and stat(2) family of operations, but
only the st_mode, st_nlink, st_uid and st_gid fields of struct stat
contain reliable information.
All files support the chmod(2)/fchmod(2) and chown(2)/fchown(2) opera-
tions, but will not be able to grant permissions that contradict the
possible operations, e.g. read access on the wbox file.
The current set of files is:
/mem
the contents of the local storage memory of the SPU. This can be
accessed like a regular shared memory file and contains both code and
data in the address space of the SPU. The possible operations on an
open mem file are:
read(2), pread(2), write(2), pwrite(2), lseek(2)
These operate as documented, with the exception that seek(2),
write(2) and pwrite(2) are not supported beyond the end of the
file. The file size is the size of the local storage of the SPU,
which normally is 256 kilobytes.
mmap(2)
Mapping mem into the process address space gives access to the
SPU local storage within the process address space. Only
MAP_SHARED mappings are allowed.
/mbox
The first SPU to CPU communication mailbox. This file is read-only and
can be read in units of 32 bits. The file can only be used in non-
blocking mode and it even poll() will not block on it. The possible
operations on an open mbox file are:
read(2)
If a count smaller than four is requested, read returns -1 and
sets errno to EINVAL. If there is no data available in the mail
box, the return value is set to -1 and errno becomes EAGAIN.
When data has been read successfully, four bytes are placed in
the data buffer and the value four is returned.
/ibox
The second SPU to CPU communication mailbox. This file is similar to
the first mailbox file, but can be read in blocking I/O mode, and the
poll familiy of system calls can be used to wait for it. The possible
operations on an open ibox file are:
read(2)
If a count smaller than four is requested, read returns -1 and
sets errno to EINVAL. If there is no data available in the mail
box and the file descriptor has been opened with O_NONBLOCK, the
return value is set to -1 and errno becomes EAGAIN.
If there is no data available in the mail box and the file
descriptor has been opened without O_NONBLOCK, the call will
block until the SPU writes to its interrupt mailbox channel.
When data has been read successfully, four bytes are placed in
the data buffer and the value four is returned.
poll(2)
Poll on the ibox file returns (POLLIN | POLLRDNORM) whenever
data is available for reading.
/wbox
The CPU to SPU communation mailbox. It is write-only can can be written
in units of 32 bits. If the mailbox is full, write() will block and
poll can be used to wait for it becoming empty again. The possible
operations on an open wbox file are: write(2) If a count smaller than
four is requested, write returns -1 and sets errno to EINVAL. If there
is no space available in the mail box and the file descriptor has been
opened with O_NONBLOCK, the return value is set to -1 and errno becomes
EAGAIN.
If there is no space available in the mail box and the file descriptor
has been opened without O_NONBLOCK, the call will block until the SPU
reads from its PPE mailbox channel. When data has been read success-
fully, four bytes are placed in the data buffer and the value four is
returned.
poll(2)
Poll on the ibox file returns (POLLOUT | POLLWRNORM) whenever
space is available for writing.
/mbox_stat
/ibox_stat
/wbox_stat
Read-only files that contain the length of the current queue, i.e. how
many words can be read from mbox or ibox or how many words can be
written to wbox without blocking. The files can be read only in 4-byte
units and return a big-endian binary integer number. The possible
operations on an open *box_stat file are:
read(2)
If a count smaller than four is requested, read returns -1 and
sets errno to EINVAL. Otherwise, a four byte value is placed in
the data buffer, containing the number of elements that can be
read from (for mbox_stat and ibox_stat) or written to (for
wbox_stat) the respective mail box without blocking or resulting
in EAGAIN.
/npc
/decr
/decr_status
/spu_tag_mask
/event_mask
/srr0
Internal registers of the SPU. The representation is an ASCII string
with the numeric value of the next instruction to be executed. These
can be used in read/write mode for debugging, but normal operation of
programs should not rely on them because access to any of them except
npc requires an SPU context save and is therefore very inefficient.
The contents of these files are:
npc Next Program Counter
decr SPU Decrementer
decr_status Decrementer Status
spu_tag_mask MFC tag mask for SPU DMA
event_mask Event mask for SPU interrupts
srr0 Interrupt Return address register
The possible operations on an open npc, decr, decr_status,
spu_tag_mask, event_mask or srr0 file are:
read(2)
When the count supplied to the read call is shorter than the
required length for the pointer value plus a newline character,
subsequent reads from the same file descriptor will result in
completing the string, regardless of changes to the register by
a running SPU task. When a complete string has been read, all
subsequent read operations will return zero bytes and a new file
descriptor needs to be opened to read the value again.
write(2)
A write operation on the file results in setting the register to
the value given in the string. The string is parsed from the
beginning to the first non-numeric character or the end of the
buffer. Subsequent writes to the same file descriptor overwrite
the previous setting.
/fpcr
This file gives access to the Floating Point Status and Control Regis-
ter as a four byte long file. The operations on the fpcr file are:
read(2)
If a count smaller than four is requested, read returns -1 and
sets errno to EINVAL. Otherwise, a four byte value is placed in
the data buffer, containing the current value of the fpcr regis-
ter.
write(2)
If a count smaller than four is requested, write returns -1 and
sets errno to EINVAL. Otherwise, a four byte value is copied
from the data buffer, updating the value of the fpcr register.
/signal1
/signal2
The two signal notification channels of an SPU. These are read-write
files that operate on a 32 bit word. Writing to one of these files
triggers an interrupt on the SPU. The value writting to the signal
files can be read from the SPU through a channel read or from host user
space through the file. After the value has been read by the SPU, it
is reset to zero. The possible operations on an open signal1 or sig-
nal2 file are:
read(2)
If a count smaller than four is requested, read returns -1 and
sets errno to EINVAL. Otherwise, a four byte value is placed in
the data buffer, containing the current value of the specified
signal notification register.
write(2)
If a count smaller than four is requested, write returns -1 and
sets errno to EINVAL. Otherwise, a four byte value is copied
from the data buffer, updating the value of the specified signal
notification register. The signal notification register will
either be replaced with the input data or will be updated to the
bitwise OR or the old value and the input data, depending on the
contents of the signal1_type, or signal2_type respectively,
file.
/signal1_type
/signal2_type
These two files change the behavior of the signal1 and signal2 notifi-
cation files. The contain a numerical ASCII string which is read as
either "1" or "0". In mode 0 (overwrite), the hardware replaces the
contents of the signal channel with the data that is written to it. in
mode 1 (logical OR), the hardware accumulates the bits that are subse-
quently written to it. The possible operations on an open signal1_type
or signal2_type file are:
read(2)
When the count supplied to the read call is shorter than the
required length for the digit plus a newline character, subse-
quent reads from the same file descriptor will result in com-
pleting the string. When a complete string has been read, all
subsequent read operations will return zero bytes and a new file
descriptor needs to be opened to read the value again.
write(2)
A write operation on the file results in setting the register to
the value given in the string. The string is parsed from the
beginning to the first non-numeric character or the end of the
buffer. Subsequent writes to the same file descriptor overwrite
the previous setting.

SPU_RUN(2) Linux Programmer's Manual SPU_RUN(2)
NAME
spu_run - execute an spu context
SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/spu.h>
int spu_run(int fd, unsigned int *npc, unsigned int *event);
DESCRIPTION
The spu_run system call is used on PowerPC machines that implement the
Cell Broadband Engine Architecture in order to access Synergistic Pro-
cessor Units (SPUs). It uses the fd that was returned from spu_cre-
ate(2) to address a specific SPU context. When the context gets sched-
uled to a physical SPU, it starts execution at the instruction pointer
passed in npc.
Execution of SPU code happens synchronously, meaning that spu_run does
not return while the SPU is still running. If there is a need to exe-
cute SPU code in parallel with other code on either the main CPU or
other SPUs, you need to create a new thread of execution first, e.g.
using the pthread_create(3) call.
When spu_run returns, the current value of the SPU instruction pointer
is written back to npc, so you can call spu_run again without updating
the pointers.
event can be a NULL pointer or point to an extended status code that
gets filled when spu_run returns. It can be one of the following con-
stants:
SPE_EVENT_DMA_ALIGNMENT
A DMA alignment error
SPE_EVENT_SPE_DATA_SEGMENT
A DMA segmentation error
SPE_EVENT_SPE_DATA_STORAGE
A DMA storage error

signal delivered to the calling process.
RETURN VALUE
spu_run returns the value of the spu_status register or -1 to indicate
an error and set errno to one of the error codes listed below. The
spu_status register value contains a bit mask of status codes and
optionally a 14 bit code returned from the stop-and-signal instruction
on the SPU. The bit masks for the status codes are:
0x02 SPU was stopped by stop-and-signal.
0x04 SPU was stopped by halt.
0x08 SPU is waiting for a channel.
0x10 SPU is in single-step mode.
0x20 SPU has tried to execute an invalid instruction.
0x40 SPU has tried to access an invalid channel.
0x3fff0000
The bits masked with this value contain the code returned from
stop-and-signal.
There are always one or more of the lower eight bits set or an error
code is returned from spu_run.
ERRORS
EAGAIN or EWOULDBLOCK
fd is in non-blocking mode and spu_run would block.
EBADF fd is not a valid file descriptor.
EFAULT npc is not a valid pointer or status is neither NULL nor a valid
pointer.
EINTR A signal occured while spu_run was in progress. The npc value
has been updated to the new program counter value if necessary.
EINVAL fd is not a file descriptor returned from spu_create(2).

SPU_CREATE(2) Linux Programmer's Manual SPU_CREATE(2)
NAME
spu_create - create a new spu context
SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/spu.h>
int spu_create(const char *pathname, int flags, mode_t mode);
DESCRIPTION
The spu_create system call is used on PowerPC machines that implement
the Cell Broadband Engine Architecture in order to access Synergistic
Processor Units (SPUs). It creates a new logical context for an SPU in
pathname and returns a handle to associated with it. pathname must
point to a non-existing directory in the mount point of the SPU file
system (spufs). When spu_create is successful, a directory gets cre-
ated on pathname and it is populated with files.
The returned file handle can only be passed to spu_run(2) or closed,
other operations are not defined on it. When it is closed, all associ-
ated directory entries in spufs are removed. When the last file handle
pointing either inside of the context directory or to this file
descriptor is closed, the logical SPU context is destroyed.
The parameter flags can be zero or any bitwise or'd combination of the
following constants:
SPU_RAWIO
Allow mapping of some of the hardware registers of the SPU into
user space. This flag requires the CAP_SYS_RAWIO capability, see
capabilities(7).
The mode parameter specifies the permissions used for creating the new
directory in spufs. mode is modified with the user's umask(2) value
and then used for both the directory and the files contained in it. The
file permissions mask out some more bits of mode because they typically
support only read or write access. See stat(2) for a full list of the
possible mode values.
RETURN VALUE
spu_create returns a new file descriptor. It may return -1 to indicate
an error condition and set errno to one of the error codes listed
below.
ERRORS
EACCESS
The current user does not have write access on the spufs mount
point.
EEXIST An SPU context already exists at the given path name.
EFAULT pathname is not a valid string pointer in the current address
space.
EINVAL pathname is not a directory in the spufs mount point.
ELOOP Too many symlinks were found while resolving pathname.
EMFILE The process has reached its maximum open file limit.
ENAMETOOLONG
pathname was too long.
ENFILE The system has reached the global open file limit.
ENOENT Part of pathname could not be resolved.
ENOMEM The kernel could not allocate all resources required.
ENOSPC There are not enough SPU resources available to create a new
context or the user specific limit for the number of SPU con-
texts has been reached.
ENOSYS the functionality is not provided by the current system, because
either the hardware does not provide SPUs or the spufs module is
not loaded.
ENOTDIR
A part of pathname is not a directory.
NOTES
spu_create is meant to be used from libraries that implement a more
abstract interface to SPUs, not to be used from regular applications.
See http://www.bsc.es/projects/deepcomputing/linuxoncell/ for the rec-
ommended libraries.
FILES
pathname must point to a location beneath the mount point of spufs. By
convention, it gets mounted in /spu.

hrtimers - subsystem for high-resolution kernel timers
----------------------------------------------------
This patch introduces a new subsystem for high-resolution kernel timers.
One might ask the question: we already have a timer subsystem
(kernel/timers.c), why do we need two timer subsystems? After a lot of
back and forth trying to integrate high-resolution and high-precision
features into the existing timer framework, and after testing various
such high-resolution timer implementations in practice, we came to the
conclusion that the timer wheel code is fundamentally not suitable for
such an approach. We initially didnt believe this ('there must be a way
to solve this'), and spent a considerable effort trying to integrate
things into the timer wheel, but we failed. In hindsight, there are
several reasons why such integration is hard/impossible:
- the forced handling of low-resolution and high-resolution timers in
the same way leads to a lot of compromises, macro magic and #ifdef
mess. The timers.c code is very "tightly coded" around jiffies and
32-bitness assumptions, and has been honed and micro-optimized for a
relatively narrow use case (jiffies in a relatively narrow HZ range)
for many years - and thus even small extensions to it easily break
the wheel concept, leading to even worse compromises. The timer wheel
code is very good and tight code, there's zero problems with it in its
current usage - but it is simply not suitable to be extended for
high-res timers.
- the unpredictable [O(N)] overhead of cascading leads to delays which
necessiate a more complex handling of high resolution timers, which
in turn decreases robustness. Such a design still led to rather large
timing inaccuracies. Cascading is a fundamental property of the timer
wheel concept, it cannot be 'designed out' without unevitably
degrading other portions of the timers.c code in an unacceptable way.
- the implementation of the current posix-timer subsystem on top of
the timer wheel has already introduced a quite complex handling of
the required readjusting of absolute CLOCK_REALTIME timers at
settimeofday or NTP time - further underlying our experience by
example: that the timer wheel data structure is too rigid for high-res
timers.
- the timer wheel code is most optimal for use cases which can be
identified as "timeouts". Such timeouts are usually set up to cover
error conditions in various I/O paths, such as networking and block
I/O. The vast majority of those timers never expire and are rarely
recascaded because the expected correct event arrives in time so they
can be removed from the timer wheel before any further processing of
them becomes necessary. Thus the users of these timeouts can accept
the granularity and precision tradeoffs of the timer wheel, and
largely expect the timer subsystem to have near-zero overhead.
Accurate timing for them is not a core purpose - in fact most of the
timeout values used are ad-hoc. For them it is at most a necessary
evil to guarantee the processing of actual timeout completions
(because most of the timeouts are deleted before completion), which
should thus be as cheap and unintrusive as possible.
The primary users of precision timers are user-space applications that
utilize nanosleep, posix-timers and itimer interfaces. Also, in-kernel
users like drivers and subsystems which require precise timed events
(e.g. multimedia) can benefit from the availability of a seperate
high-resolution timer subsystem as well.
While this subsystem does not offer high-resolution clock sources just
yet, the hrtimer subsystem can be easily extended with high-resolution
clock capabilities, and patches for that exist and are maturing quickly.
The increasing demand for realtime and multimedia applications along
with other potential users for precise timers gives another reason to
separate the "timeout" and "precise timer" subsystems.
Another potential benefit is that such a seperation allows even more
special-purpose optimization of the existing timer wheel for the low
resolution and low precision use cases - once the precision-sensitive
APIs are separated from the timer wheel and are migrated over to
hrtimers. E.g. we could decrease the frequency of the timeout subsystem
from 250 Hz to 100 HZ (or even smaller).
hrtimer subsystem implementation details
----------------------------------------
the basic design considerations were:
- simplicity
- data structure not bound to jiffies or any other granularity. All the
kernel logic works at 64-bit nanoseconds resolution - no compromises.
- simplification of existing, timing related kernel code
another basic requirement was the immediate enqueueing and ordering of
timers at activation time. After looking at several possible solutions
such as radix trees and hashes, we chose the red black tree as the basic
data structure. Rbtrees are available as a library in the kernel and are
used in various performance-critical areas of e.g. memory management and
file systems. The rbtree is solely used for time sorted ordering, while
a separate list is used to give the expiry code fast access to the
queued timers, without having to walk the rbtree.
(This seperate list is also useful for later when we'll introduce
high-resolution clocks, where we need seperate pending and expired
queues while keeping the time-order intact.)
Time-ordered enqueueing is not purely for the purposes of
high-resolution clocks though, it also simplifies the handling of
absolute timers based on a low-resolution CLOCK_REALTIME. The existing
implementation needed to keep an extra list of all armed absolute
CLOCK_REALTIME timers along with complex locking. In case of
settimeofday and NTP, all the timers (!) had to be dequeued, the
time-changing code had to fix them up one by one, and all of them had to
be enqueued again. The time-ordered enqueueing and the storage of the
expiry time in absolute time units removes all this complex and poorly
scaling code from the posix-timer implementation - the clock can simply
be set without having to touch the rbtree. This also makes the handling
of posix-timers simpler in general.
The locking and per-CPU behavior of hrtimers was mostly taken from the
existing timer wheel code, as it is mature and well suited. Sharing code
was not really a win, due to the different data structures. Also, the
hrtimer functions now have clearer behavior and clearer names - such as
hrtimer_try_to_cancel() and hrtimer_cancel() [which are roughly
equivalent to del_timer() and del_timer_sync()] - so there's no direct
1:1 mapping between them on the algorithmical level, and thus no real
potential for code sharing either.
Basic data types: every time value, absolute or relative, is in a
special nanosecond-resolution type: ktime_t. The kernel-internal
representation of ktime_t values and operations is implemented via
macros and inline functions, and can be switched between a "hybrid
union" type and a plain "scalar" 64bit nanoseconds representation (at
compile time). The hybrid union type optimizes time conversions on 32bit
CPUs. This build-time-selectable ktime_t storage format was implemented
to avoid the performance impact of 64-bit multiplications and divisions
on 32bit CPUs. Such operations are frequently necessary to convert
between the storage formats provided by kernel and userspace interfaces
and the internal time format. (See include/linux/ktime.h for further
details.)
hrtimers - rounding of timer values
-----------------------------------
the hrtimer code will round timer events to lower-resolution clocks
because it has to. Otherwise it will do no artificial rounding at all.
one question is, what resolution value should be returned to the user by
the clock_getres() interface. This will return whatever real resolution
a given clock has - be it low-res, high-res, or artificially-low-res.
hrtimers - testing and verification
----------------------------------
We used the high-resolution clock subsystem ontop of hrtimers to verify
the hrtimer implementation details in praxis, and we also ran the posix
timer tests in order to ensure specification compliance. We also ran
tests on low-resolution clocks.
The hrtimer patch converts the following kernel functionality to use
hrtimers:
- nanosleep
- itimers
- posix-timers
The conversion of nanosleep and posix-timers enabled the unification of
nanosleep and clock_nanosleep.
The code was successfully compiled for the following platforms:
i386, x86_64, ARM, PPC, PPC64, IA64
The code was run-tested on the following platforms:
i386(UP/SMP), x86_64(UP/SMP), ARM, PPC
hrtimers were also integrated into the -rt tree, along with a
hrtimers-based high-resolution clock implementation, so the hrtimers
code got a healthy amount of testing and use in practice.

reserved memory section starts. For example: "crashkernel=64M@16M".
B) Second kernel:
a) Enable "kernel crash dumps" feature (in Processor type and features).
CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP=y
b) Specify a suitable value for "Physical address where the kernel is
loaded" (in Processor type and features). Typically this value
should be same as X (See option d) above, e.g., 16 MB or 0x1000000.
CONFIG_PHYSICAL_START=0x1000000
c) Enable "/proc/vmcore support" (Optional, in Pseudo filesystems).
CONFIG_PROC_VMCORE=y
d) Disable SMP support and build a UP kernel (Until it is fixed).

iii) Both option a) and b) are under "Processor type and features".
B) Second kernel or dump capture kernel:
---------------------------------------
a) For i386 architecture enable Highmem support

b) Enable "kernel crash dumps" feature (under "Processor type and features")
CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP=y

3) Boot into the first kernel. You are now ready to try out kexec-based crash
dumps.
4) Load the second kernel to be booted using:
3) After booting to regular kernel or first kernel, load the second kernel
using the following command:
kexec -p <second-kernel> --args-linux --elf32-core-headers

--append="root=<root-dev> init 1 irqpoll maxcpus=1"
Note: i) <second-kernel> has to be a vmlinux image. bzImage will not work,
as of now.
ii) By default ELF headers are stored in ELF64 format. Option
--elf32-core-headers forces generation of ELF32 headers. gdb can
not open ELF64 headers on 32 bit systems. So creating ELF32
headers can come handy for users who have got non-PAE systems and
hence have memory less than 4GB.
iii) Specify "irqpoll" as command line parameter. This reduces driver
initialization failures in second kernel due to shared interrupts.
iv) <root-dev> needs to be specified in a format corresponding to
the root device name in the output of mount command.
v) If you have built the drivers required to mount root file
system as modules in <second-kernel>, then, specify
--initrd=<initrd-for-second-kernel>.
Notes:
======
i) <second-kernel> has to be a vmlinux image ie uncompressed elf image.
bzImage will not work, as of now.
ii) --args-linux has to be speicfied as if kexec it loading an elf image,
it needs to know that the arguments supplied are of linux type.
iii) By default ELF headers are stored in ELF64 format to support systems
with more than 4GB memory. Option --elf32-core-headers forces generation
of ELF32 headers. The reason for this option being, as of now gdb can
not open vmcore file with ELF64 headers on a 32 bit systems. So ELF32
headers can be used if one has non-PAE systems and hence memory less
than 4GB.
iv) Specify "irqpoll" as command line parameter. This reduces driver
initialization failures in second kernel due to shared interrupts.
v) <root-dev> needs to be specified in a format corresponding to the root
device name in the output of mount command.
vi) If you have built the drivers required to mount root file system as
modules in <second-kernel>, then, specify
--initrd=<initrd-for-second-kernel>.
vii) Specify maxcpus=1 as, if during first kernel run, if panic happens on
non-boot cpus, second kernel doesn't seem to be boot up all the cpus.
The other option is to always built the second kernel without SMP
support ie CONFIG_SMP=n
5) System reboots into the second kernel when a panic occurs. A module can be

Generic Mutex Subsystem
started by Ingo Molnar <mingo@redhat.com>
"Why on earth do we need a new mutex subsystem, and what's wrong
with semaphores?"
firstly, there's nothing wrong with semaphores. But if the simpler
mutex semantics are sufficient for your code, then there are a couple
of advantages of mutexes:
- 'struct mutex' is smaller on most architectures: .e.g on x86,
'struct semaphore' is 20 bytes, 'struct mutex' is 16 bytes.
A smaller structure size means less RAM footprint, and better
CPU-cache utilization.
- tighter code. On x86 i get the following .text sizes when
switching all mutex-alike semaphores in the kernel to the mutex
subsystem:
text data bss dec hex filename
3280380 868188 396860 4545428 455b94 vmlinux-semaphore
3255329 865296 396732 4517357 44eded vmlinux-mutex
that's 25051 bytes of code saved, or a 0.76% win - off the hottest
codepaths of the kernel. (The .data savings are 2892 bytes, or 0.33%)
Smaller code means better icache footprint, which is one of the
major optimization goals in the Linux kernel currently.
- the mutex subsystem is slightly faster and has better scalability for
contended workloads. On an 8-way x86 system, running a mutex-based
kernel and testing creat+unlink+close (of separate, per-task files)
in /tmp with 16 parallel tasks, the average number of ops/sec is:
Semaphores: Mutexes:
$ ./test-mutex V 16 10 $ ./test-mutex V 16 10
8 CPUs, running 16 tasks. 8 CPUs, running 16 tasks.
checking VFS performance. checking VFS performance.
avg loops/sec: 34713 avg loops/sec: 84153
CPU utilization: 63% CPU utilization: 22%
i.e. in this workload, the mutex based kernel was 2.4 times faster
than the semaphore based kernel, _and_ it also had 2.8 times less CPU
utilization. (In terms of 'ops per CPU cycle', the semaphore kernel
performed 551 ops/sec per 1% of CPU time used, while the mutex kernel
performed 3825 ops/sec per 1% of CPU time used - it was 6.9 times
more efficient.)
the scalability difference is visible even on a 2-way P4 HT box:
Semaphores: Mutexes:
$ ./test-mutex V 16 10 $ ./test-mutex V 16 10
4 CPUs, running 16 tasks. 8 CPUs, running 16 tasks.
checking VFS performance. checking VFS performance.
avg loops/sec: 127659 avg loops/sec: 181082
CPU utilization: 100% CPU utilization: 34%
(the straight performance advantage of mutexes is 41%, the per-cycle
efficiency of mutexes is 4.1 times better.)
- there are no fastpath tradeoffs, the mutex fastpath is just as tight
as the semaphore fastpath. On x86, the locking fastpath is 2
instructions:
c0377ccb <mutex_lock>:
c0377ccb: f0 ff 08 lock decl (%eax)
c0377cce: 78 0e js c0377cde <.text.lock.mutex>
c0377cd0: c3 ret
the unlocking fastpath is equally tight:
c0377cd1 <mutex_unlock>:
c0377cd1: f0 ff 00 lock incl (%eax)
c0377cd4: 7e 0f jle c0377ce5 <.text.lock.mutex+0x7>
c0377cd6: c3 ret
- 'struct mutex' semantics are well-defined and are enforced if
CONFIG_DEBUG_MUTEXES is turned on. Semaphores on the other hand have
virtually no debugging code or instrumentation. The mutex subsystem
checks and enforces the following rules:
* - only one task can hold the mutex at a time
* - only the owner can unlock the mutex
* - multiple unlocks are not permitted
* - recursive locking is not permitted
* - a mutex object must be initialized via the API
* - a mutex object must not be initialized via memset or copying
* - task may not exit with mutex held
* - memory areas where held locks reside must not be freed
* - held mutexes must not be reinitialized
* - mutexes may not be used in irq contexts
furthermore, there are also convenience features in the debugging
code:
* - uses symbolic names of mutexes, whenever they are printed in debug output
* - point-of-acquire tracking, symbolic lookup of function names
* - list of all locks held in the system, printout of them
* - owner tracking
* - detects self-recursing locks and prints out all relevant info
* - detects multi-task circular deadlocks and prints out all affected
* locks and tasks (and only those tasks)
Disadvantages
-------------
The stricter mutex API means you cannot use mutexes the same way you
can use semaphores: e.g. they cannot be used from an interrupt context,
nor can they be unlocked from a different context that which acquired
it. [ I'm not aware of any other (e.g. performance) disadvantages from
using mutexes at the moment, please let me know if you find any. ]
Implementation of mutexes
-------------------------
'struct mutex' is the new mutex type, defined in include/linux/mutex.h
and implemented in kernel/mutex.c. It is a counter-based mutex with a
spinlock and a wait-list. The counter has 3 states: 1 for "unlocked",
0 for "locked" and negative numbers (usually -1) for "locked, potential
waiters queued".
the APIs of 'struct mutex' have been streamlined:
DEFINE_MUTEX(name);
mutex_init(mutex);
void mutex_lock(struct mutex *lock);
int mutex_lock_interruptible(struct mutex *lock);
int mutex_trylock(struct mutex *lock);
void mutex_unlock(struct mutex *lock);
int mutex_is_locked(struct mutex *lock);

PCI Error Recovery
------------------
May 31, 2005
Current document maintainer:
Linas Vepstas <linas@austin.ibm.com>
Some PCI bus controllers are able to detect certain "hard" PCI errors
on the bus, such as parity errors on the data and address busses, as
well as SERR and PERR errors. These chipsets are then able to disable
I/O to/from the affected device, so that, for example, a bad DMA
address doesn't end up corrupting system memory. These same chipsets
are also able to reset the affected PCI device, and return it to
working condition. This document describes a generic API form
performing error recovery.
The core idea is that after a PCI error has been detected, there must
be a way for the kernel to coordinate with all affected device drivers
so that the pci card can be made operational again, possibly after
performing a full electrical #RST of the PCI card. The API below
provides a generic API for device drivers to be notified of PCI
errors, and to be notified of, and respond to, a reset sequence.
Preliminary sketch of API, cut-n-pasted-n-modified email from
Ben Herrenschmidt, circa 5 april 2005
The error recovery API support is exposed to the driver in the form of
a structure of function pointers pointed to by a new field in struct
pci_driver. The absence of this pointer in pci_driver denotes an
"non-aware" driver, behaviour on these is platform dependant.
Platforms like ppc64 can try to simulate pci hotplug remove/add.
The definition of "pci_error_token" is not covered here. It is based on
Seto's work on the synchronous error detection. We still need to define
functions for extracting infos out of an opaque error token. This is
separate from this API.
This structure has the form:
struct pci_error_handlers
{
int (*error_detected)(struct pci_dev *dev, pci_error_token error);
int (*mmio_enabled)(struct pci_dev *dev);
int (*resume)(struct pci_dev *dev);
int (*link_reset)(struct pci_dev *dev);
int (*slot_reset)(struct pci_dev *dev);
};
A driver doesn't have to implement all of these callbacks. The
only mandatory one is error_detected(). If a callback is not
implemented, the corresponding feature is considered unsupported.
For example, if mmio_enabled() and resume() aren't there, then the
driver is assumed as not doing any direct recovery and requires
a reset. If link_reset() is not implemented, the card is assumed as
not caring about link resets, in which case, if recover is supported,
the core can try recover (but not slot_reset() unless it really did
reset the slot). If slot_reset() is not supported, link_reset() can
be called instead on a slot reset.
At first, the call will always be :
1) error_detected()
Error detected. This is sent once after an error has been detected. At
this point, the device might not be accessible anymore depending on the
platform (the slot will be isolated on ppc64). The driver may already
have "noticed" the error because of a failing IO, but this is the proper
"synchronisation point", that is, it gives a chance to the driver to
cleanup, waiting for pending stuff (timers, whatever, etc...) to
complete; it can take semaphores, schedule, etc... everything but touch
the device. Within this function and after it returns, the driver
shouldn't do any new IOs. Called in task context. This is sort of a
"quiesce" point. See note about interrupts at the end of this doc.
Result codes:
- PCIERR_RESULT_CAN_RECOVER:
Driever returns this if it thinks it might be able to recover
the HW by just banging IOs or if it wants to be given
a chance to extract some diagnostic informations (see
below).
- PCIERR_RESULT_NEED_RESET:
Driver returns this if it thinks it can't recover unless the
slot is reset.
- PCIERR_RESULT_DISCONNECT:
Return this if driver thinks it won't recover at all,
(this will detach the driver ? or just leave it
dangling ? to be decided)
So at this point, we have called error_detected() for all drivers
on the segment that had the error. On ppc64, the slot is isolated. What
happens now typically depends on the result from the drivers. If all
drivers on the segment/slot return PCIERR_RESULT_CAN_RECOVER, we would
re-enable IOs on the slot (or do nothing special if the platform doesn't
isolate slots) and call 2). If not and we can reset slots, we go to 4),
if neither, we have a dead slot. If it's an hotplug slot, we might
"simulate" reset by triggering HW unplug/replug though.

>>> assume that the device driver has gone into an infinite loop, and
>>> it will panic the the kernel.
2) mmio_enabled()
This is the "early recovery" call. IOs are allowed again, but DMA is
not (hrm... to be discussed, I prefer not), with some restrictions. This
is NOT a callback for the driver to start operations again, only to
peek/poke at the device, extract diagnostic information, if any, and
eventually do things like trigger a device local reset or some such,
but not restart operations. This is sent if all drivers on a segment
agree that they can try to recover and no automatic link reset was
performed by the HW. If the platform can't just re-enable IOs without
a slot reset or a link reset, it doesn't call this callback and goes
directly to 3) or 4). All IOs should be done _synchronously_ from
within this callback, errors triggered by them will be returned via
the normal pci_check_whatever() api, no new error_detected() callback
will be issued due to an error happening here. However, such an error
might cause IOs to be re-blocked for the whole segment, and thus
invalidate the recovery that other devices on the same segment might
have done, forcing the whole segment into one of the next states,
that is link reset or slot reset.
Result codes:
- PCIERR_RESULT_RECOVERED
Driver returns this if it thinks the device is fully
functionnal and thinks it is ready to start
normal driver operations again. There is no
guarantee that the driver will actually be
allowed to proceed, as another driver on the
same segment might have failed and thus triggered a
slot reset on platforms that support it.
- PCIERR_RESULT_NEED_RESET
Driver returns this if it thinks the device is not
recoverable in it's current state and it needs a slot
reset to proceed.
- PCIERR_RESULT_DISCONNECT
Same as above. Total failure, no recovery even after
reset driver dead. (To be defined more precisely)
>>> The current ppc64 implementation does not implement this callback.
3) link_reset()
This is called after the link has been reset. This is typically
a PCI Express specific state at this point and is done whenever a
non-fatal error has been detected that can be "solved" by resetting
the link. This call informs the driver of the reset and the driver
should check if the device appears to be in working condition.
This function acts a bit like 2) mmio_enabled(), in that the driver
is not supposed to restart normal driver I/O operations right away.
Instead, it should just "probe" the device to check it's recoverability
status. If all is right, then the core will call resume() once all
drivers have ack'd link_reset().
Result codes:
(identical to mmio_enabled)
>>> The current ppc64 implementation does not implement this callback.
4) slot_reset()
This is called after the slot has been soft or hard reset by the
platform. A soft reset consists of asserting the adapter #RST line
and then restoring the PCI BARs and PCI configuration header. If the
platform supports PCI hotplug, then it might instead perform a hard
reset by toggling power on the slot off/on. This call gives drivers
the chance to re-initialize the hardware (re-download firmware, etc.),
but drivers shouldn't restart normal I/O processing operations at
this point. (See note about interrupts; interrupts aren't guaranteed
to be delivered until the resume() callback has been called). If all
device drivers report success on this callback, the patform will call
resume() to complete the error handling and let the driver restart
normal I/O processing.
A driver can still return a critical failure for this function if
it can't get the device operational after reset. If the platform
previously tried a soft reset, it migh now try a hard reset (power
cycle) and then call slot_reset() again. It the device still can't
be recovered, there is nothing more that can be done; the platform
will typically report a "permanent failure" in such a case. The
device will be considered "dead" in this case.
Result codes:
- PCIERR_RESULT_DISCONNECT
Same as above.
>>> The current ppc64 implementation does not try a power-cycle reset
>>> if the driver returned PCIERR_RESULT_DISCONNECT. However, it should.
5) resume()
This is called if all drivers on the segment have returned
PCIERR_RESULT_RECOVERED from one of the 3 prevous callbacks.
That basically tells the driver to restart activity, tht everything
is back and running. No result code is taken into account here. If
a new error happens, it will restart a new error handling process.
That's it. I think this covers all the possibilities. The way those
callbacks are called is platform policy. A platform with no slot reset
capability for example may want to just "ignore" drivers that can't
recover (disconnect them) and try to let other cards on the same segment
recover. Keep in mind that in most real life cases, though, there will
be only one driver per segment.
Now, there is a note about interrupts. If you get an interrupt and your
device is dead or has been isolated, there is a problem :)
After much thinking, I decided to leave that to the platform. That is,
the recovery API only precies that:
- There is no guarantee that interrupt delivery can proceed from any
device on the segment starting from the error detection and until the
restart callback is sent, at which point interrupts are expected to be
fully operational.
- There is no guarantee that interrupt delivery is stopped, that is, ad
river that gets an interrupts after detecting an error, or that detects
and error within the interrupt handler such that it prevents proper
ack'ing of the interrupt (and thus removal of the source) should just
return IRQ_NOTHANDLED. It's up to the platform to deal with taht
condition, typically by masking the irq source during the duration of
the error handling. It is expected that the platform "knows" which
interrupts are routed to error-management capable slots and can deal
with temporarily disabling that irq number during error processing (this
isn't terribly complex). That means some IRQ latency for other devices
sharing the interrupt, but there is simply no other way. High end
platforms aren't supposed to share interrupts between many devices
anyway :)

AACRAID Driver for Linux (take two)
Introduction
-------------------------
The aacraid driver adds support for Adaptec (http://www.adaptec.com)
RAID controllers. This is a major rewrite from the original
Adaptec supplied driver. It has signficantly cleaned up both the code
and the running binary size (the module is less than half the size of
the original).

spi_butterfly - parport-to-butterfly adapter driver
===================================================
This is a hardware and software project that includes building and using
a parallel port adapter cable, together with an "AVR Butterfly" to run
firmware for user interfacing and/or sensors. A Butterfly is a $US20
battery powered card with an AVR microcontroller and lots of goodies:
sensors, LCD, flash, toggle stick, and more. You can use AVR-GCC to
develop firmware for this, and flash it using this adapter cable.
You can make this adapter from an old printer cable and solder things
directly to the Butterfly. Or (if you have the parts and skills) you
can come up with something fancier, providing ciruit protection to the
Butterfly and the printer port, or with a better power supply than two
signal pins from the printer port.
The first cable connections will hook Linux up to one SPI bus, with the
AVR and a DataFlash chip; and to the AVR reset line. This is all you
need to reflash the firmware, and the pins are the standard Atmel "ISP"
connector pins (used also on non-Butterfly AVR boards).
Signal Butterfly Parport (DB-25)
------ --------- ---------------
SCK = J403.PB1/SCK = pin 2/D0
RESET = J403.nRST = pin 3/D1
VCC = J403.VCC_EXT = pin 8/D6
MOSI = J403.PB2/MOSI = pin 9/D7
MISO = J403.PB3/MISO = pin 11/S7,nBUSY
GND = J403.GND = pin 23/GND
Then to let Linux master that bus to talk to the DataFlash chip, you must
(a) flash new firmware that disables SPI (set PRR.2, and disable pullups
by clearing PORTB.[0-3]); (b) configure the mtd_dataflash driver; and
(c) cable in the chipselect.
Signal Butterfly Parport (DB-25)
------ --------- ---------------
VCC = J400.VCC_EXT = pin 7/D5
SELECT = J400.PB0/nSS = pin 17/C3,nSELECT
GND = J400.GND = pin 24/GND
The "USI" controller, using J405, can be used for a second SPI bus. That
would let you talk to the AVR over SPI, running firmware that makes it act
as an SPI slave, while letting either Linux or the AVR use the DataFlash.
There are plenty of spare parport pins to wire this one up, such as:

Overview of Linux kernel SPI support
====================================
02-Dec-2005
What is SPI?
------------
The "Serial Peripheral Interface" (SPI) is a synchronous four wire serial
link used to connect microcontrollers to sensors, memory, and peripherals.
The three signal wires hold a clock (SCLK, often on the order of 10 MHz),
and parallel data lines with "Master Out, Slave In" (MOSI) or "Master In,
Slave Out" (MISO) signals. (Other names are also used.) There are four
clocking modes through which data is exchanged; mode-0 and mode-3 are most
commonly used. Each clock cycle shifts data out and data in; the clock
doesn't cycle except when there is data to shift.
SPI masters may use a "chip select" line to activate a given SPI slave
device, so those three signal wires may be connected to several chips
in parallel. All SPI slaves support chipselects. Some devices have
other signals, often including an interrupt to the master.
Unlike serial busses like USB or SMBUS, even low level protocols for
SPI slave functions are usually not interoperable between vendors
(except for cases like SPI memory chips).
- SPI may be used for request/response style device protocols, as with
touchscreen sensors and memory chips.
- It may also be used to stream data in either direction (half duplex),
or both of them at the same time (full duplex).
- Some devices may use eight bit words. Others may different word
lengths, such as streams of 12-bit or 20-bit digital samples.
In the same way, SPI slaves will only rarely support any kind of automatic
discovery/enumeration protocol. The tree of slave devices accessible from
a given SPI master will normally be set up manually, with configuration
tables.
SPI is only one of the names used by such four-wire protocols, and
most controllers have no problem handling "MicroWire" (think of it as
half-duplex SPI, for request/response protocols), SSP ("Synchronous
Serial Protocol"), PSP ("Programmable Serial Protocol"), and other
related protocols.
Microcontrollers often support both master and slave sides of the SPI
protocol. This document (and Linux) currently only supports the master
side of SPI interactions.
Who uses it? On what kinds of systems?
---------------------------------------
Linux developers using SPI are probably writing device drivers for embedded
systems boards. SPI is used to control external chips, and it is also a
protocol supported by every MMC or SD memory card. (The older "DataFlash"
cards, predating MMC cards but using the same connectors and card shape,
support only SPI.) Some PC hardware uses SPI flash for BIOS code.
SPI slave chips range from digital/analog converters used for analog
sensors and codecs, to memory, to peripherals like USB controllers
or Ethernet adapters; and more.
Most systems using SPI will integrate a few devices on a mainboard.
Some provide SPI links on expansion connectors; in cases where no
dedicated SPI controller exists, GPIO pins can be used to create a
low speed "bitbanging" adapter. Very few systems will "hotplug" an SPI
controller; the reasons to use SPI focus on low cost and simple operation,
and if dynamic reconfiguration is important, USB will often be a more
appropriate low-pincount peripheral bus.
Many microcontrollers that can run Linux integrate one or more I/O
interfaces with SPI modes. Given SPI support, they could use MMC or SD
cards without needing a special purpose MMC/SD/SDIO controller.
How do these driver programming interfaces work?
------------------------------------------------
The <linux/spi/spi.h> header file includes kerneldoc, as does the
main source code, and you should certainly read that. This is just
an overview, so you get the big picture before the details.
SPI requests always go into I/O queues. Requests for a given SPI device
are always executed in FIFO order, and complete asynchronously through
completion callbacks. There are also some simple synchronous wrappers
for those calls, including ones for common transaction types like writing
a command and then reading its response.
There are two types of SPI driver, here called:
Controller drivers ... these are often built in to System-On-Chip
processors, and often support both Master and Slave roles.
These drivers touch hardware registers and may use DMA.
Or they can be PIO bitbangers, needing just GPIO pins.
Protocol drivers ... these pass messages through the controller
driver to communicate with a Slave or Master device on the
other side of an SPI link.
So for example one protocol driver might talk to the MTD layer to export
data to filesystems stored on SPI flash like DataFlash; and others might
control audio interfaces, present touchscreen sensors as input interfaces,
or monitor temperature and voltage levels during industrial processing.
And those might all be sharing the same controller driver.
A "struct spi_device" encapsulates the master-side interface between
those two types of driver. At this writing, Linux has no slave side
programming interface.
There is a minimal core of SPI programming interfaces, focussing on
using driver model to connect controller and protocol drivers using
device tables provided by board specific initialization code. SPI
shows up in sysfs in several locations:
/sys/devices/.../CTLR/spiB.C ... spi_device for on bus "B",
chipselect C, accessed through CTLR.
/sys/devices/.../CTLR/spiB.C/modalias ... identifies the driver
that should be used with this device (for hotplug/coldplug)
/sys/bus/spi/devices/spiB.C ... symlink to the physical
spiB-C device
/sys/bus/spi/drivers/D ... driver for one or more spi*.* devices
/sys/class/spi_master/spiB ... class device for the controller
managing bus "B". All the spiB.* devices share the same
physical SPI bus segment, with SCLK, MOSI, and MISO.
How does board-specific init code declare SPI devices?
------------------------------------------------------
Linux needs several kinds of information to properly configure SPI devices.
That information is normally provided by board-specific code, even for
chips that do support some of automated discovery/enumeration.
DECLARE CONTROLLERS
The first kind of information is a list of what SPI controllers exist.
For System-on-Chip (SOC) based boards, these will usually be platform
devices, and the controller may need some platform_data in order to
operate properly. The "struct platform_device" will include resources
like the physical address of the controller's first register and its IRQ.
Platforms will often abstract the "register SPI controller" operation,
maybe coupling it with code to initialize pin configurations, so that
the arch/.../mach-*/board-*.c files for several boards can all share the
same basic controller setup code. This is because most SOCs have several
SPI-capable controllers, and only the ones actually usable on a given
board should normally be set up and registered.
So for example arch/.../mach-*/board-*.c files might have code like:
#include <asm/arch/spi.h> /* for mysoc_spi_data */
/* if your mach-* infrastructure doesn't support kernels that can
* run on multiple boards, pdata wouldn't benefit from "__init".
*/
static struct mysoc_spi_data __init pdata = { ... };
static __init board_init(void)
{
...
/* this board only uses SPI controller #2 */
mysoc_register_spi(2, &pdata);
...
}
And SOC-specific utility code might look something like:
#include <asm/arch/spi.h>
static struct platform_device spi2 = { ... };
void mysoc_register_spi(unsigned n, struct mysoc_spi_data *pdata)
{
struct mysoc_spi_data *pdata2;
pdata2 = kmalloc(sizeof *pdata2, GFP_KERNEL);
*pdata2 = pdata;
...
if (n == 2) {
spi2->dev.platform_data = pdata2;
register_platform_device(&spi2);
/* also: set up pin modes so the spi2 signals are
* visible on the relevant pins ... bootloaders on
* production boards may already have done this, but
* developer boards will often need Linux to do it.
*/
}
...
}
Notice how the platform_data for boards may be different, even if the
same SOC controller is used. For example, on one board SPI might use
an external clock, where another derives the SPI clock from current
settings of some master clock.
DECLARE SLAVE DEVICES
The second kind of information is a list of what SPI slave devices exist
on the target board, often with some board-specific data needed for the
driver to work correctly.
Normally your arch/.../mach-*/board-*.c files would provide a small table
listing the SPI devices on each board. (This would typically be only a
small handful.) That might look like:
static struct ads7846_platform_data ads_info = {
.vref_delay_usecs = 100,
.x_plate_ohms = 580,
.y_plate_ohms = 410,
};
static struct spi_board_info spi_board_info[] __initdata = {
{
.modalias = "ads7846",
.platform_data = &ads_info,
.mode = SPI_MODE_0,
.irq = GPIO_IRQ(31),
.max_speed_hz = 120000 /* max sample rate at 3V */ * 16,
.bus_num = 1,
.chip_select = 0,
},
};
Again, notice how board-specific information is provided; each chip may need
several types. This example shows generic constraints like the fastest SPI
clock to allow (a function of board voltage in this case) or how an IRQ pin
is wired, plus chip-specific constraints like an important delay that's
changed by the capacitance at one pin.
(There's also "controller_data", information that may be useful to the
controller driver. An example would be peripheral-specific DMA tuning
data or chipselect callbacks. This is stored in spi_device later.)
The board_info should provide enough information to let the system work
without the chip's driver being loaded. The most troublesome aspect of
that is likely the SPI_CS_HIGH bit in the spi_device.mode field, since
sharing a bus with a device that interprets chipselect "backwards" is
not possible.
Then your board initialization code would register that table with the SPI
infrastructure, so that it's available later when the SPI master controller
driver is registered:
spi_register_board_info(spi_board_info, ARRAY_SIZE(spi_board_info));
Like with other static board-specific setup, you won't unregister those.
The widely used "card" style computers bundle memory, cpu, and little else
onto a card that's maybe just thirty square centimeters. On such systems,
your arch/.../mach-.../board-*.c file would primarily provide information
about the devices on the mainboard into which such a card is plugged. That
certainly includes SPI devices hooked up through the card connectors!

Developer boards often play by different rules than product boards, and one
example is the potential need to hotplug SPI devices and/or controllers.
For those cases you might need to use use spi_busnum_to_master() to look
up the spi bus master, and will likely need spi_new_device() to provide the
board info based on the board that was hotplugged. Of course, you'd later
call at least spi_unregister_device() when that board is removed.
When Linux includes support for MMC/SD/SDIO/DataFlash cards through SPI, those
configurations will also be dynamic. Fortunately, those devices all support
basic device identification probes, so that support should hotplug normally.
How do I write an "SPI Protocol Driver"?
----------------------------------------
All SPI drivers are currently kernel drivers. A userspace driver API
would just be another kernel driver, probably offering some lowlevel
access through aio_read(), aio_write(), and ioctl() calls and using the
standard userspace sysfs mechanisms to bind to a given SPI device.
SPI protocol drivers somewhat resemble platform device drivers:
static struct spi_driver CHIP_driver = {
.driver = {
.name = "CHIP",
.bus = &spi_bus_type,
.owner = THIS_MODULE,
},
.probe = CHIP_probe,
.remove = __devexit_p(CHIP_remove),
.suspend = CHIP_suspend,
.resume = CHIP_resume,
};
The driver core will autmatically attempt to bind this driver to any SPI
device whose board_info gave a modalias of "CHIP". Your probe() code
might look like this unless you're creating a class_device:
static int __devinit CHIP_probe(struct spi_device *spi)
{
struct CHIP *chip;
struct CHIP_platform_data *pdata;
/* assuming the driver requires board-specific data: */
pdata = &spi->dev.platform_data;
if (!pdata)
return -ENODEV;
/* get memory for driver's per-chip state */
chip = kzalloc(sizeof *chip, GFP_KERNEL);
if (!chip)
return -ENOMEM;
dev_set_drvdata(&spi->dev, chip);
... etc
return 0;
}
As soon as it enters probe(), the driver may issue I/O requests to
the SPI device using "struct spi_message". When remove() returns,
the driver guarantees that it won't submit any more such messages.
- An spi_message is a sequence of of protocol operations, executed
as one atomic sequence. SPI driver controls include:
+ when bidirectional reads and writes start ... by how its
sequence of spi_transfer requests is arranged;
+ optionally defining short delays after transfers ... using
the spi_transfer.delay_usecs setting;
+ whether the chipselect becomes inactive after a transfer and
any delay ... by using the spi_transfer.cs_change flag;
+ hinting whether the next message is likely to go to this same
device ... using the spi_transfer.cs_change flag on the last
transfer in that atomic group, and potentially saving costs
for chip deselect and select operations.
- Follow standard kernel rules, and provide DMA-safe buffers in
your messages. That way controller drivers using DMA aren't forced
to make extra copies unless the hardware requires it (e.g. working
around hardware errata that force the use of bounce buffering).
If standard dma_map_single() handling of these buffers is inappropriate,
you can use spi_message.is_dma_mapped to tell the controller driver
that you've already provided the relevant DMA addresses.
- The basic I/O primitive is spi_async(). Async requests may be
issued in any context (irq handler, task, etc) and completion
is reported using a callback provided with the message.
After any detected error, the chip is deselected and processing
of that spi_message is aborted.
- There are also synchronous wrappers like spi_sync(), and wrappers
like spi_read(), spi_write(), and spi_write_then_read(). These
may be issued only in contexts that may sleep, and they're all
clean (and small, and "optional") layers over spi_async().
- The spi_write_then_read() call, and convenience wrappers around
it, should only be used with small amounts of data where the
cost of an extra copy may be ignored. It's designed to support
common RPC-style requests, such as writing an eight bit command
and reading a sixteen bit response -- spi_w8r16() being one its
wrappers, doing exactly that.
Some drivers may need to modify spi_device characteristics like the
transfer mode, wordsize, or clock rate. This is done with spi_setup(),
which would normally be called from probe() before the first I/O is
done to the device.
While "spi_device" would be the bottom boundary of the driver, the
upper boundaries might include sysfs (especially for sensor readings),
the input layer, ALSA, networking, MTD, the character device framework,
or other Linux subsystems.
Note that there are two types of memory your driver must manage as part
of interacting with SPI devices.
- I/O buffers use the usual Linux rules, and must be DMA-safe.
You'd normally allocate them from the heap or free page pool.
Don't use the stack, or anything that's declared "static".
- The spi_message and spi_transfer metadata used to glue those
I/O buffers into a group of protocol transactions. These can
be allocated anywhere it's convenient, including as part of
other allocate-once driver data structures. Zero-init these.
If you like, spi_message_alloc() and spi_message_free() convenience
routines are available to allocate and zero-initialize an spi_message
with several transfers.
How do I write an "SPI Master Controller Driver"?
-------------------------------------------------
An SPI controller will probably be registered on the platform_bus; write
a driver to bind to the device, whichever bus is involved.
The main task of this type of driver is to provide an "spi_master".
Use spi_alloc_master() to allocate the master, and class_get_devdata()
to get the driver-private data allocated for that device.
struct spi_master *master;
struct CONTROLLER *c;
master = spi_alloc_master(dev, sizeof *c);
if (!master)
return -ENODEV;
c = class_get_devdata(&master->cdev);
The driver will initialize the fields of that spi_master, including the
bus number (maybe the same as the platform device ID) and three methods
used to interact with the SPI core and SPI protocol drivers. It will
also initialize its own internal state.
master->setup(struct spi_device *spi)
This sets up the device clock rate, SPI mode, and word sizes.
Drivers may change the defaults provided by board_info, and then
call spi_setup(spi) to invoke this routine. It may sleep.
master->transfer(struct spi_device *spi, struct spi_message *message)
This must not sleep. Its responsibility is arrange that the
transfer happens and its complete() callback is issued; the two
will normally happen later, after other transfers complete.
master->cleanup(struct spi_device *spi)
Your controller driver may use spi_device.controller_state to hold
state it dynamically associates with that device. If you do that,
be sure to provide the cleanup() method to free that state.
The bulk of the driver will be managing the I/O queue fed by transfer().
That queue could be purely conceptual. For example, a driver used only
for low-frequency sensor acess might be fine using synchronous PIO.
But the queue will probably be very real, using message->queue, PIO,
often DMA (especially if the root filesystem is in SPI flash), and
execution contexts like IRQ handlers, tasklets, or workqueues (such
as keventd). Your driver can be as fancy, or as simple, as you need.

a number of reserved free pages based proportionally on its size.
==============================================================
percpu_pagelist_fraction
This is the fraction of pages at most (high mark pcp->high) in each zone that
are allocated for each per cpu page list. The min value for this is 8. It
means that we don't allow more than 1/8th of pages in each zone to be
allocated in any single per_cpu_pagelist. This entry only changes the value
of hot per cpu pagelists. User can specify a number like 100 to allocate
1/100th of each zone to each per cpu page list.
The batch value of each per cpu pagelist is also updated as a result. It is
set to pcp->high/4. The upper limit of batch is (PAGE_SHIFT * 8)
The initial value is zero. Kernel does not use this value at boot time to set
the high water marks for each per cpu page list.
===============================================================
zone_reclaim_mode:
This is set during bootup to 1 if it is determined that pages from
remote zones will cause a significant performance reduction. The
page allocator will then reclaim easily reusable pages (those page
cache pages that are currently not used) before going off node.
The user can override this setting. It may be beneficial to switch
off zone reclaim if the system is used for a file server and all
of memory should be used for caching files from disk.
It may be beneficial to switch this on if one wants to do zone
reclaim regardless of the numa distances in the system.

Firmware support for CPU hotplug under Linux/x86-64
---------------------------------------------------
Linux/x86-64 supports CPU hotplug now. For various reasons Linux wants to
know in advance boot time the maximum number of CPUs that could be plugged
into the system. ACPI 3.0 currently has no official way to supply
this information from the firmware to the operating system.
In ACPI each CPU needs an LAPIC object in the MADT table (5.2.11.5 in the
ACPI 3.0 specification). ACPI already has the concept of disabled LAPIC
objects by setting the Enabled bit in the LAPIC object to zero.
For CPU hotplug Linux/x86-64 expects now that any possible future hotpluggable
CPU is already available in the MADT. If the CPU is not available yet
it should have its LAPIC Enabled bit set to 0. Linux will use the number
of disabled LAPICs to compute the maximum number of future CPUs.
In the worst case the user can overwrite this choice using a command line
option (additional_cpus=...), but it is recommended to supply the correct
number (or a reasonable approximation of it, with erring towards more not less)
in the MADT to avoid manual configuration.

WHAT IS LINUX?

assistance from a loosely-knit team of hackers across the Net.
It aims towards POSIX compliance.
Linux is a clone of the operating system Unix, written from scratch by
Linus Torvalds with assistance from a loosely-knit team of hackers across
the Net. It aims towards POSIX and Single UNIX Specification compliance.
It has all the features you would expect in a modern fully-fledged
Unix, including true multitasking, virtual memory, shared libraries,
demand loading, shared copy-on-write executables, proper memory
management and TCP/IP networking.
It has all the features you would expect in a modern fully-fledged Unix,
including true multitasking, virtual memory, shared libraries, demand
loading, shared copy-on-write executables, proper memory management,
and multistack networking including IPv4 and IPv6.
It is distributed under the GNU General Public License - see the
accompanying COPYING file for more details.
ON WHAT HARDWARE DOES IT RUN?
Linux was first developed for 386/486-based PCs. These days it also
runs on ARMs, DEC Alphas, SUN Sparcs, M68000 machines (like Atari and
Amiga), MIPS and PowerPC, and others.
Although originally developed first for 32-bit x86-based PCs (386 or higher),
today Linux also runs on (at least) the Compaq Alpha AXP, Sun SPARC and
UltraSPARC, Motorola 68000, PowerPC, PowerPC64, ARM, Hitachi SuperH,
IBM S/390, MIPS, HP PA-RISC, Intel IA-64, DEC VAX, AMD x86-64, AXIS CRIS,
and Renesas M32R architectures.
Linux is easily portable to most general-purpose 32- or 64-bit architectures
as long as they have a paged memory management unit (PMMU) and a port of the
GNU C compiler (gcc) (part of The GNU Compiler Collection, GCC). Linux has
also been ported to a number of architectures without a PMMU, although
functionality is then obviously somewhat limited.

COMPILING the kernel:
- Make sure you have gcc 2.95.3 available.
gcc 2.91.66 (egcs-1.1.2), and gcc 2.7.2.3 are known to miscompile
some parts of the kernel, and are *no longer supported*.
Also remember to upgrade your binutils package (for as/ld/nm and company)
if necessary. For more information, refer to Documentation/Changes.
- Make sure you have at least gcc 3.2 available.
For more information, refer to Documentation/Changes.
Please note that you can still run a.out user programs with this kernel.

config AEABI
bool "Use the ARM EABI to compile the kernel"
help
This option allows for the kernel to be compiled using the latest
ARM ABI (aka EABI). This is only useful if you are using a user
space environment that is also compiled with EABI.
Since there are major incompatibilities between the legacy ABI and
EABI, especially with regard to structure member alignment, this
option also changes the kernel syscall calling convention to
disambiguate both ABIs and allow for backward compatibility support
(selected with CONFIG_OABI_COMPAT).
To use this you need GCC version 4.0.0 or later.
config OABI_COMPAT
bool "Allow old ABI binaries to run with this kernel"
depends on AEABI
default y
help
This option preserves the old syscall interface along with the
new (ARM EABI) one. It also provides a compatibility layer to
intercept syscalls that have structure arguments which layout
in memory differs between the legacy ABI and the new ARM EABI
(only for non "thumb" binaries). This option adds a tiny
overhead to all syscalls and produces a slightly larger kernel.
If you know you'll be using only pure EABI user space then you
can say N here. If this option is not selected and you attempt
to execute a legacy ABI binary then the result will be
UNPREDICTABLE (in fact it can be predicted that it won't work
at all). If in doubt say Y.
