[PATCH v14 0/4] Watchdog: introduce ARM SBSA watchdog driver

by fu.wei＠linaro.org

From: Fu Wei <fu.wei(a)linaro.org> This patchset: (1)Introduce Documentation/devicetree/bindings/watchdog/sbsa-gwdt.txt for FDT info of SBSA Generic Watchdog, and give two examples of adding SBSA Generic Watchdog device node into the dts files: foundation-v8.dts and amd-seattle-soc.dtsi. (2)Introduce ARM SBSA watchdog driver: a.Use linux kernel watchdog framework; b.Work with FDT on ARM64; c.Support getting timeout from parameter and FDT at the driver init stage. d.The driver works in two modes: (1) single stage timeout (ignore WS0 interrupt) (2) two stages timeout (register WS0 interrupt, do panic in routine) e.User can config working mode by module parameter "action". This patchset has been tested with watchdog daemon (ACPI/FDT, module/build-in) on the following platforms: (1)ARM Foundation v8 model (2)AMD Seattle platform This patchset has been tested with kdump successfully. Changelog: v14:Fix a bug of registering interrupt routine: do a ping before registering interrupt routine, in case where is a pending interrupt. Reorder the initialization code to postpone registering interrupt routine. Improve some code style: (1)add some macro of string (2)use watchdog_get_drvdata instead of to_sbsa_gwdt, delete to_sbsa_gwdt. v13:https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/2/16/713 Fix a dev_warn message typo"signle"-->"single" Add MODULE_ALIAS Add more *ed-by in commit message. v12:https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/2/16/154 Fix a dev_warn message typo"fall"--"falling" Remove unnecessary "status" in dts Add more *ed-by in commit message. v11:https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/2/9/577 Merge patch 4 and 5. Improve some comments. The driver works in two modes, it's configured by "action"(instead of panic_enabled). Improve the initialization of the timeout limits. Feeding dog by writing "0" to WRR. v10:https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/2/3/817 Delete pretimeout support. Separate the driver to two parts: (1) single stage timeout driver(ignore WS0 interrupt); (2) register WS0 interrupt for the half timeout panic. timeout == (enable --> WS1). v9: https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/11/9/57 Rebase to latest kernel version(4.3). Update the Documentation of sbsa-gwdt device node info of FDT: (1) move some introduction to pretimeout patch (2) delete WS1 value from "interrupts" of binding documentation, since WS1 won't be handled by Linux. v8: https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/10/27/466 Rebase to latest kernel version(4.3-rc7). Separate the patches of GTDT support and arm_arch_timer. This clocksource relevant patch will upstreamed in a individual patchset. Update all the default timeout and pretimeout to 30s and 60s. Improve documentation and inline comments. Fix a bug in pretimeout support which makes timeout and pretimeout parameters initialization fail. v7: https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/8/24/611 Rebase to latest kernel version(4.2-rc7). Improve FDT support: geting resource by order, instead of name. According to the FDT support, Update the example dts file, gtdt.c and sbsa_gwdt.c. Pass the sparse test, and fix the warning. Fix the max_pretimeout and max_timeout value overflow bug. Delete the WCV output value. v6: https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/6/23/359 Improve the dtb example files: reduce the register frame size to 4K. Improve pretimeout support: (1) improve watchdog_init_timeouts function (2) rename watchdog_check_min_max_timeouts back to the original name (1) improve watchdog_timeout_invalid/watchdog_pretimeout_invalid Add the new features in the sbsa_gwdt driver: (1) In the second stage, user can feed the dog without cleaning WS0. (2) In the second stage, user can trigger WS1 by setting pretimeout = 0. (3) expand the max value of pretimeout, in case 10 second is not enough for a kdump kernel reboot in panic. v5: https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/6/10/357 Improve pretimeout support: (1)fix typo in documentation and comments. (2)fix the timeout limits validation bug. Simplify sbsa_gwdt driver: (1)integrate all the registers access functions into caller. v4: https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/6/2/4 Refactor GTDT support code: remove it from arch/arm64/kernel/acpi.c, put it into drivers/acpi/gtdt.c file.

[RESEND PATCH v2] ARM64: ACPI: Update documentation for latest specification version

by Al Stone

The ACPI 6.1 specification was recently released at the end of January 2016, but the arm64 kernel documentation for the use of ACPI was written for the 5.1 version of the spec. There were significant additions to the spec that had not yet been mentioned -- for example, the 6.0 mechanisms added to make it easier to define processors and low power idle states, as well as the 6.1 addition allowing regular interrupts (not just from GPIO) be used to signal ACPI general purpose events. This patch reflects going back through and examining the specs in detail and updating content appropriately. Whilst there, a few odds and ends of typos were caught as well. This brings the documentation up to date with ACPI 6.1 for arm64. RESEND: -- Corrected From: header and added missing Cc's Changes for v2: -- Clean up white space (Harb Abdulhahmid) -- Clarification on _CCA usage (Harb Abdulhamid) -- IORT moved to required from recommended (Hanjun Guo) -- Clarify IORT description (Hanjun Guo) Signed-off-by: Al Stone <al.stone(a)linaro.org> Cc: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas(a)arm.com> Cc: Will Deacon <will.deacon(a)arm.com> Cc: Jonathan Corbet <corbet(a)lwn.net> --- Documentation/arm64/acpi_object_usage.txt | 445 ++++++++++++++++++++++-------- Documentation/arm64/arm-acpi.txt | 28 +- 2 files changed, 356 insertions(+), 117 deletions(-) diff --git a/Documentation/arm64/acpi_object_usage.txt b/Documentation/arm64/acpi_object_usage.txt index a6e1a18..29bc1a1 100644 --- a/Documentation/arm64/acpi_object_usage.txt +++ b/Documentation/arm64/acpi_object_usage.txt @@ -11,15 +11,16 @@ outside of the UEFI Forum (see Section 5.2.6 of the specification).

[PATCH V4 00/23] MMCONFIG refactoring and support for ARM64 PCI hostbridge init based on ACPI

by Tomasz Nowicki

>From the functionality point of view this series might be split into the following logic parts: 1. Make MMCONFIG code arch-agnostic which allows all architectures to collect PCI config regions and used when necessary. 2. Move non-arch specific bits to the core code. 3. Use MMCONFIG code and implement generic ACPI based PCI host controller driver. 4. Enable above driver on ARM64 Patches has been built on top of 4.5-rc1 and can be found here: git@github.com:semihalf-nowicki-tomasz/linux.git (pci-acpi-v4) NOTE, this patch set depends on Lorenzo's fixes: https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/576450/ which can be found in pci-acpi-v4 branch. This has been tested on Cavium ThunderX server, JunoR2, HP RX2660 IA64, x86, Hip05, X-Gene and QEMU-aarch64. Any help in reviewing and testing is very appreciated. v3 -> v4 - dropped Jiang's fix http://lkml.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/1601.1/04318.html - added Lorenzo's fix patch 19/24 - ACPI PCI bus domain number assigning cleanup - changed resource management, we now claim and reassign resources - improvements for applying quirks - dropped Matthew's http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-pci/msg45950.html dependency - rebased to 4.5-rc1 v2 -> v3 - fix legacy IRQ assigning and IO ports registration - remove reference to arch specific companion device for ia64 - move ACPI PCI host controller driver to pci_root.c - drop generic domain assignment for x86 and ia64 as I am not able to run all necessary test variants - drop patch which cleaned legacy IRQ assignment since it belongs to Mathew's series: https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/557504/ - extend MCFG quirk code - rebased to 4.4 v1 -> v2 - moved non-arch specific piece of code to dirver/acpi/ directory - fixed IO resource handling - introduced PCI config accessors quirks matching - moved ACPI_COMPANION_SET to generic code v1 - https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/10/27/504 v2 - https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/12/16/246 v3 - http://lkml.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/1601.1/04308.html Lorenzo Pieralisi (1): drivers: pci: add generic code to claim bus resources Tomasz Nowicki (22): x86, pci: Reorder logic of pci_mmconfig_insert() function x86, pci, acpi: Move arch-agnostic MMCONFIG (aka ECAM) and ACPI code out of arch/x86/ directory pci, acpi, mcfg: Provide generic implementation of MCFG code initialization. x86, pci: mmconfig_{32,64}.c code refactoring - remove code duplication. x86, pci, ecam: mmconfig_64.c becomes default implementation for ECAM driver.

[PATCH v2] ARM64: ACPI: Update documentation for latest specification version

by Al Stone

From: Al Stone <ahs3(a)redhat.com> The ACPI 6.1 specification was recently released at the end of January 2016, but the arm64 kernel documentation for the use of ACPI was written for the 5.1 version of the spec. There were significant additions to the spec that had not yet been mentioned -- for example, the 6.0 mechanisms added to make it easier to define processors and low power idle states, as well as the 6.1 addition allowing regular interrupts (not just from GPIO) be used to signal ACPI general purpose events. This patch reflects going back through and examining the specs in detail and updating content appropriately. Whilst there, a few odds and ends of typos were caught as well. This brings the documentation up to date with ACPI 6.1 for arm64. Changes for v2: -- Clean up white space (Harb Abdulhahmid) -- Clarification on _CCA usage (Harb Abdulhamid) -- IORT moved to required from recommended (Hanjun Guo) -- Clarify IORT description (Hanjun Guo) Signed-off-by: Al Stone <al.stone(a)linaro.org> --- Documentation/arm64/acpi_object_usage.txt | 445 ++++++++++++++++++++++-------- Documentation/arm64/arm-acpi.txt | 28 +- 2 files changed, 356 insertions(+), 117 deletions(-) diff --git a/Documentation/arm64/acpi_object_usage.txt b/Documentation/arm64/acpi_object_usage.txt index a6e1a18..29bc1a1 100644 --- a/Documentation/arm64/acpi_object_usage.txt +++ b/Documentation/arm64/acpi_object_usage.txt @@ -11,15 +11,16 @@ outside of the UEFI Forum (see Section 5.2.6 of the specification).

[PATCH] ARM64: ACPI: Update documentation for latest specification version

by al.stone＠linaro.org

From: Al Stone <al.stone(a)linaro.org> The ACPI 6.1 specification was recently released at the end of January 2016, but the arm64 kernel documentation for the use of ACPI was written for the 5.1 version of the spec. There were significant additions to the spec that had not yet been mentioned -- for example, the 6.0 mechanisms added to make it easier to define processors and low power idle states, as well as the 6.1 addition allowing regular interrupts (not just from GPIO) be used to signal ACPI general purpose events. This patch reflects going back through and examining the specs in detail and updating content appropriately. Whilst there, a few odds and ends of typos were caught as well. This brings the documentation up to date with ACPI 6.1 for arm64.

[PATCH v2 00/23] Full ACPI compliance testing for the FADT

by Al Stone

This constitutes a major rewrite and restructuring of the FADT tests for ACPI. There is now a compliance test for every field that we can test. Some we cannot test since any possible value in the field is also an allowed value. In some cases, the tests are an extension of existing tests -- for the PM blocks, SMI_CMD and the GPE blocks, for example. In the rest, these are new tests, and all of these are part of what used to be a much smaller test1. The original test2 and test3 are almost entirely intact since they did some solid testing of semantics across several related fields. The largest structural change is around reduced hardware mode. There is now a test specific to that mode verifying that all of the fields in the FADT that are to be ignored are set to zero.

[PATCH 00/21] Full ACPI compliance testing for the FADT

by Al Stone

This constitutes a major rewrite and restructuring of the FADT tests for ACPI. There is now a compliance test for every field that we can test. Some we cannot test since any possible value in the field is also an allowed value. In some cases, the tests are an extension of existing tests -- for the PM blocks, SMI_CMD and the GPE blocks, for example. In the rest, these are new tests, and all of these are part of what used to be a much smaller test1. The original test2 and test3 are almost entirely intact since they did some solid testing of semantics across several related fields. The largest structural change is around reduced hardware mode. There is now a test specific to that mode verifying that all of the fields in the FADT that are to be ignored are set to zero. Further, tests that are irrelevant to reduced hardware mode are skipped when we have tables in that mode. Some of the patches are simply to enable compiling the FADT tests on non-x86 architectures; they were completely disabled previously. I did attempt to break up the patches into reasonable chunks but some of them still may have ended up fairly large. This has been tested on arm64 and x86-64, using arm64 and x86 ACPI tables. I am sure the testing has not been exhaustive; there are a *lot* of fields in the FADT.

[PATCH v2 0/5] Update ACPI RSDP tests to be specification compliant

by Al Stone

Add in several tests that extend the testing done on the RSDP. If these tests are all passed, the RSDP being examined should be compliant with the ACPI 6.0 spec. As part of that, when creating a dummy RSDP to substitute for one that cannot be read or found, use either RsdtAddress or XsdtAddress as described in the spec. For non-arm64, either can be used, but for arm64, only the XsdtAddress is to be used. Finally, update the regression tests for RSDP. Changes for v2: -- Clean up failure messages to be more like expected messages (per Alex Hung) -- Bodge up both RSDT and XSDT pointers on x86 (Alex Hung) Al Stone (5): RSDP: minor cleanups to rsdp.c for checkpatch issues utilities: add a helper function for printing out architecture names ACPI tables: when bodging up an RSDP, do the right thing for the arch ACPI RSDP: flesh out the tests to check for full spec compliance.

[RFC PATCH] ARM64: ACPI: Update documentation for latest specification version

by Al Stone

NB: I'm only sending this to a small audience for now to get some initial feedback. If I've missed someone you think might be useful, feel free to pass this on. The ACPI 6.1 specification was recently released at the end of January 2016, but the arm64 kernel documentation for the use of ACPI was written for the 5.1 version of the spec. There were significant additions to the spec that had not yet been mentioned -- for example, the 6.0 mechanisms added to make it easier to define processors and low power idle states, as well as the 6.1 addition allowing regular interrupts (not just from GPIO) be used to signal ACPI general purpose events. This patch reflects going back through and examining the specs in detail and updating content appropriately. Whilst there, a few odds and ends of typos were caught as well. This brings the documentation up to date with ACPI 6.1 for arm64.
