[PATCH 5/5] perf: Create a sysfs entry for Power event format
Create a sysfs entry, '/sys/bus/event_source/devices/cpu/format/event' which describes the format of a POWER cpu. The format of the event is the same for all POWER cpus at least in (Power6, Power7), so bulk of this change is common in the code common to POWER cpus. This code is based on corresponding code in x86. Changelog[v2]: [Jiri Osla] Use PMU_FORMAT_ATTR() rather than duplicating it.

Tiejun, I'm a little confused by these patches, because the actual critical exception handlers are still commented out: /* Critical Input Interrupt */ START_EXCEPTION(critical_input); CRIT_EXCEPTION_PROLOG(0x100, BOOKE_INTERRUPT_CRITICAL, PROLOG_ADDITION_NONE) // EXCEPTION_COMMON(0x100, PACA_EXCRIT, INTS_DISABLE) // bl special_reg_save_crit // CHECK_NAPPING(); // addir3,r1,STACK_FRAME_OVERHEAD // bl .critical_exception // b ret_from_crit_except b .

This shows that the "server" operand ordering is enabled for POWER4 and later cpus while the "embedded" operand ordering is enabled for pre POWER4 cpus (yes, not exactly a server versus embedded trigger, but that's we agreed on to mitigate breaking any old asm code out there). {"dcbtst", X(31,246), X_MASK, POWER4,PPCNONE,{RA0, RB, CT}}, {"dcbtst", X(31,246), X_MASK, PPC|PPCVLE, POWER4,{CT, RA0, RB}}, GAS doesn't look at how the operands are written to try and guess what operand ordering you are attempting to use. Rather, it knows what ordering it expects and the values had better match that ordering.

Or maybe see the 'r' prefix. I know they tend to be absent making ppc asm even more unreadable. It isn't as though the mnemonics were designed at a time when the source file size or difference in decode time (or code space) would be significant. Otherwise it is a complete recipe for disaster.

I was under the impression that the assembler made no instruction decisions based on CPU. So your only hint would be that '0b' prefix. Does AS even see that? If not, then without a _normalizing_ macro, I think will need that obj-$(CONFIG_PPC_BOOK3S_64) and .S files with the two can never be shared. -jx > > Peter > > ___ Linuxppc-dev mailing list Linuxppc-dev@lists.ozlabs.org https://lists.ozlabs.org/listinfo/linuxppc-dev

I think it is the right idea since it is unclear that your optimizations would actually help an embedded system where most of these cache prefetches are NOPs and only wait decode/dispatch cycles. > It's a bit strange your assembler is > complaining about the dcbtst instructions since we wrap them with > power4: Not really, the binutils is a little old (RHEL 6.2), unfortunately it _is_ the toolchain most people are using at the moment. It will take me a while to get everyone using newer ones since most are scientists using the packages they get.

The difference was, the fixed-link tag in the section ethernet@3000 { ... };. I added "fixed-link = <1 1 100 0 0>;" to my tqm5200.dtb and now it works. I am new to powerpc development and I hope it is ok to ask what this fixed-link with the numbers "1 1 100 0 0" does?

If is a switch you need to configure a fixed link to the switch. This can be done via dts file. Note the the DSA also supports this chip.

tqm5200s phy link toggles between up and down
Hello, I hope someone could help me with my problem. Currently I am porting a new kernel (3.3.8) for a tqm5200s based board. The previous kernel was 2.6.23. The new kernel version is needed because of support for a wireless card. The new kernel has problems with my ethernet PHY. The problem occurs only with our hardware. Not with the TQ eval board. The eval board uses a Intel PHY. Our board uses a Marvel 88E6085 PHY. I have tested the new kernel on the eval board and everything runs fine. But After booting the kernel on our hardware, the ethernet connection is going up and down and loops between these two states. This is the log output: [ 38.608305] PHY: f0003000:00 - Link is Down [ 41.708310] PHY: f0003000:00 - Link is Up - 10/Half [ 43.744304] PHY: f0003000:00 - Link is Down [ 46.844309] PHY: f0003000:00 - Link is Up - 10/Half I also had a look inside the driver in Drivers/net/ethernet/freescale/fec_mpc52xx.c and made a printk output to the link adjust method, which is called everytime before the link is going down. /* based on generic_adjust_link from fs_enet-main.c */ static void mpc52xx_fec_adjust_link(struct net_device *dev) { struct mpc52xx_fec_priv *priv = netdev_priv(dev); struct phy_device *phydev = priv->phydev; int new_state = 0; printk( KERN_INFO "%s->%s: entering...", __FILE__, __func__ ); if (phydev->link != PHY_DOWN) { if (phydev->duplex != priv->duplex) { struct mpc52xx_fec __iomem *fec = priv->fec; u32 rcntrl; u32 tcntrl; ... ... This is the output with the above printk: [ 35.589485] PHY: f0003000:00 - Link is Down [ 40.752753] drivers/net/ethernet/freescale/fec_mpc52xx.c ->mpc52xx_fec_adjust_link: entering... [ 40.761494] PHY: f0003000:00 - Link is Up - 10/Half [ 42.796746] drivers/net/ethernet/freescale/fec_mpc52xx.c ->mpc52xx_fec_adjust_link: entering...

[ 49.009497] PHY: f0003000:00 - Link is Up - 10/Half As I noticed the problem occurs also with a 2.6.24 kernel. Seems that the driver was rewritten and moved from drivers/net/fec_mpc52xx/ to drivers/net/ethernet/freescale/fec_mpc52xx.c. I am note shure where to search for the problem. The PHY link seems to be in some kind of auto-negotiating loop of going up and down? Has anyone had this problem before, or does someone has a tip to fix this problem?
