2010-02-23drm/nv50: fix instmem binding on IGPs to point at stolen system memoryBen Skeggs
This also modifies the unused PRAMIN PT entries to be all zeroes, can't really recall why I used 9/0 initially, just that it didn't work for some reason. It was likely masking a bug elsewhere that's since been fixed. Signed-off-by: Ben Skeggs <bskeggs@redhat.com>
2010-02-23drm/nv50: improve vram page table constructionBen Skeggs
This commit changes nouveau to construct PTEs which look very much like the ones the binary driver creates. I presume that filling multiple PTEs identically with length flags and the physical address of the start of a block of VRAM is a hint to the memory controller that it need not perform additional page table lookups for that range of addresses.

checking. Allocation of single large block of memory may fail under memory presure. drm_buffer object can hold one large block of data in multiple independ pages which preents alloation failures. This patch converts all access to command stream to use drm_buffer interface. All direct access to array has to go tough drm_buffer functions to get correct pointer. Outputting the command stream to ring buffer needs to be awear of the split nature of drm_buffer. The output operation requires the new OUT_RING_DRM_BUFFER.

2010-02-22drm: Add generic multipart buffer.Pauli Nieminen
Allocating multiple pages of memory for data that is coming from user space may fail. To fix memory allocation failures the buffer object should be split to multiple independ pages. drm buffer provides generic interface to copy and process large data arrays from user space. Interface includes allocation and free functions to allocate the buffer object and data storage pages. All access operations are performed relative to a internal pointer which is advanced with drm_buffer_advance function. The buffer can be accessed using drm_buffer_pointer_to_XXX functions if it is known that requested object doesn't split over a page boundary. These functions don't do any error checking to maximize performance. If there is large object which could be split there is special drm_buffer_read_object function. drm_buffer_read_object takes a pointer as argument which is used as temporary store for data if it is split over boundary in the buffer.

2010-02-22ACPI: Be in TS_POLLING state during mwait based C-state entryPallipadi, Venkatesh
ACPI deep C-state entry had a long standing bug/missing feature, wherein we were sending resched IPIs when an idle CPU is in mwait based deep C-state. Only mwait based C1 was using the write to the monitored address to wake up mwait'ing CPU. This patch changes the code to retain TS_POLLING bit if we are entering an mwait based deep C-state. The patch has been verified to reduce the number of resched IPIs in general and also improves the performance/power on workloads with low system utilization (i.e., when mwait based deep C-states are being used).

2010-02-22drm/i915: Record batch buffer following GPU errorChris Wilson
In order to improve our diagnostic capabilities following a GPU hang and subsequent reset, we need to record the batch buffer that triggered the error. We assume that the current batch buffer, plus a few details about what else is on the active list, will be sufficient -- at the very least an improvement over nothing. The extra information is stored in /debug/dri/.../i915_error_state following an error, and may be decoded using intel_gpu_tools/tools/intel_error_decode. v2: Avoid excessive work under spinlocks. v3: Include ringbuffer for later analysis. v4: Use kunmap correctly and record more buffer state. v5: Search ringbuffer for current batch buffer v6: Use a work fn for the impossible IRQ error case. v7: Avoid non-atomic paths whilst in IRQ context.

2010-02-22i915 / PM: Fix hibernate regression caused by suspend/resume splittingRafael J. Wysocki
Commit 84b79f8d2882b0a84330c04839ed4d3cefd2ff77 (drm/i915: Fix crash while aborting hibernation) attempted to fix a regression introduced by commit cbda12d77ea590082edb6d30bd342a67ebc459e0 (drm/i915: implement new pm ops for i915), but it went too far trying to split the freeze/suspend and resume/thaw parts of the code. As a result, it introduced another regression, which only is visible on some systems. Fix the problem by merging i915_drm_suspend() with i915_drm_freeze() and moving some code from i915_resume() into i915_drm_thaw(), so that intel_opregion_free() and intel_opregion_init() are also executed in the freeze and thaw code paths, respectively.

2010-02-22drm/i915: enable memory self refresh on 9xxLi Peng
Enabling memory self refresh (SR) on 9xx needs to set additional register bits. On 945, we need bit 31 of FW_BLC_SELF to enable the write to self refresh bit and bit 16 to enable the write of self refresh watermark. On 915, bit 12 of INSTPM is used to enable SR. SR will take effect when CPU enters C3+ state and its entry/exit should be automatically controlled by H/W, driver only needs to set SR enable bits in wm update. But this isn't safe in my test on 945 because GPU is hung. So this patch explicitly enables SR when GPU is idle, and disables SR when it is busy. In my test on a netbook of 945GSE chipset, it saves about 0.8W idle power.

2010-02-20ARM: allow alignment fault mode to be configured at kernel bootRussell King
Some glibc versions intentionally create lots of alignment faults in their gconv code, which if not fixed up, results in segfaults during boot. This can prevent systems booting properly. There is no clear hard-configurable default for this; the desired default depends on the nature of the userspace which is going to be booted. So, provide a way for the alignment fault handler to be configured via the kernel command line. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
