2013-06-25powerpc/eeh: Use interruptible sleep in keehdGavin Shan
To replace down() with down_interrutible() to avoid following warning: [c00000007ba7b710] [c000000000014410] .__switch_to+0x1b0/0x380 [c00000007ba7b7c0] [c0000000007b408c] .__schedule+0x3ec/0x970 [c00000007ba7ba50] [c0000000007b1f24] .schedule_timeout+0x1a4/0x2b0 [c00000007ba7bb30] [c0000000007b34a4] .__down+0xa4/0x104 [c00000007ba7bbf0] [c0000000000b9230] .down+0x60/0x70 [c00000007ba7bc80] [c0000000000336d0] .eeh_event_handler+0x70/0x190 [c00000007ba7bd30] [c0000000000b1a58] .kthread+0xe8/0xf0 [c00000007ba7be30] [c00000000000a05c] .ret_from_kernel_thread+0x5c/0x8 This also avoids keeping the load average up while doing nothing.

2013-06-20powerpc/eeh: Allow to purge EEH eventsGavin Shan
On PowerNV platform, we might run into the situation where subsequent events are duplicated events of former one, which is being processed. For the case, we need the function implemented by the patch to purge EEH events accordingly.

2013-06-20powerpc/eeh: Single kthread to handle eventsGavin Shan
We possiblly have multiple kthreads running for multiple EEH errors (events) and use one spinlock to make the process of handling those EEH events serialized. That's unnecessary and the patch creates only one kthread, which is started during EEH core initialization time in eeh_init(). A new semaphore introduced to count the number of existing EEH events in the queue and the kthread waiting on the semaphore.

2013-06-20powerpc/eeh: Move common part to kernel directoryGavin Shan
The patch moves the common part of EEH core into arch/powerpc/kernel directory so that we needn't PPC_PSERIES while compiling POWERNV platform: * Move the EEH common part into arch/powerpc/kernel * Move the functions for PCI hotplug from pSeries platform to arch/powerpc/kernel/pci-hotplug.c * Move CONFIG_EEH from arch/powerpc/platforms/pseries/Kconfig to arch/powerpc/platforms/Kconfig * Adjust makefile accordingly Signed-off-by: Gavin Shan <shangw@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>
