Title:
830 TI on Tuleta during IPL of Linux - bad xisr passed to PHYP
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Status in linux source package in Vivid:
Fix Committed
Status in linux source package in Wily:
Fix Released
Bug description:
I looked at the dump and the assert is due to a bad xisr. From the
VIO trace the xisr was 0000000001000A00.

I then dumped the device tree for interrupts that PFW communicates to Linux
via the device as follows:

3) Here are all the 'interrupts' properties found:
0 > showprops -i interrupts
/event-sources/epow-events 00090001 00000000
/vdevice/vty@30000000 000a0000 00000000
/vdevice/vty@30000001 000a0001 00000000
/vdevice/ibm,vmc@30000002 000a0002 00000000
----------------------------------
PFW did not provide interrupt 01000A00 to the OS, so I don't think either PFW or
PHYP (who provides PFW with the int values) is at fault here. This needs to go
to Linux to determine where the 01000A00 comes from.
My guess is the interrupt 000A0001 provided for virtual console device /vdevice/vty@30000001
may be the source of the issue. Perhaps Linux is passing RTAS the little endian version of
the /vdevice/vty@30000001 interrupt since BE value 01000A00 is LE value 000A0001.
I think there is an endianess issue in hvsi_console_init where irq, as
well as vtermno, are not byte swapped when fetched from the DT.
However, I tried to get it fixed on my LPAR but I can't reach that code since there is no such a device configured.
How could I get this device (serial hvterm-protocol) set up ?
I confirm that hvsi_console_init() assumes big endian, which is wrong.
That explains the swapped irq value.
This patch is fixing all the endianness issues I found by reading the
HVSI driver's code.
When booting the system, there is no more error messages displayed and
the tty driver sounds configured correctly. However, I can't tell that
the driver is fully functional since I don't know how to access the
other side of the configured TTY.
The patch has been accpeted upstream in the powerpc/next branch:
https://git.kernel.org/powerpc/c/480798044eb268a31f6b
Hi,
This patch should be applied to Ubuntu 15.04 and 15.10.
Thanks,
Laurent.
