2006-06-15[POWERPC] check firmware state before suspendingDave C Boutcher
Currently the kernel blindly halts all the processors and calls the ibm,suspend-me rtas call. If the firmware is not in the correct state, we then re-start all the processors and return. It is much smarter to first check the firmware state, and only if it is waiting, call the ibm,suspend-me call. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
2006-06-15[POWERPC] Fix builtin command line interaction with firmwareAmos Waterland
It seems that prom_init's early_cmdline_parse is broken on at least Apple 970 xserves and IBM JS20 blades with SLOF. The firmware of these machines returns -1 and 1 respectively when getprop is called for the bootargs property of /chosen, causing Linux to ignore its builtin command line in favor of a null string. This patch makes Linux use its builtin command line if getprop returns an error or a null string.

2006-06-15[POWERPC] pcibus_to_node fixesAnton Blanchard
of_node_to_nid returns -1 if the associativity cannot be found. This means pcibus_to_cpumask has to be careful not to pass a negative index into node_to_cpumask. Since pcibus_to_node could be used a lot, and of_node_to_nid is slow (it walks a list doing strcmps), lets also cache the node in the pci_controller struct.

2006-06-15[POWERPC] 64bit FPSCR supportAnton Blanchard
Forthcoming machines will extend the FPSCR to 64 bits. We already had a 64-bit save area for the FPSCR, but we need to use a new form of the mtfsf instruction. Fortunately this new form is decoded as an ordinary mtfsf by existing 64-bit processors. Signed-off-by: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
2006-06-15[POWERPC] MSI abstractionJake Moilanen
Instead of trying to make PPC64 MSI fit in a Intel-centric MSI layer, a simple short-term solution is to hook the pci_{en/dis}able_msi() calls and make a machdep call. The rest of the MSI functions are superfluous for what is needed at this time. Many of which can have machdep calls added as needed. Ben and Michael Ellerman are looking into rewrite the MSI layer to be more generic. However, in the meantime this works as a interim solution.

2006-06-15powerpc: Simplify push_end definition in pci_32.cPaul Mackerras
The push_end macro in arch/powerpc/kernel/pci_32.c uses integer division and multiplication to achieve the effect of rounding a resource end address up and then advancing it to the end of a power-of-2 sized region. This changes it to an equivalent computation that only needs an integer add and OR. This is partly based on an earlier patch by Mel Gorman. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
2006-06-15powerpc: Use 64k pages without needing cache-inhibited large pagesPaul Mackerras
Some POWER5+ machines can do 64k hardware pages for normal memory but not for cache-inhibited pages. This patch lets us use 64k hardware pages for most user processes on such machines (assuming the kernel has been configured with CONFIG_PPC_64K_PAGES=y). User processes start out using 64k pages and get switched to 4k pages if they use any non-cacheable mappings. With this, we use 64k pages for the vmalloc region and 4k pages for the imalloc region. If anything creates a non-cacheable mapping in the vmalloc region, the vmalloc region will get switched to 4k pages. I don't know of any driver other than the DRM that would do this, though, and these machines don't have AGP. When a region gets switched from 64k pages to 4k pages, we do not have to clear out all the 64k HPTEs from the hash table immediately. We use the _PAGE_COMBO bit in the Linux PTE to indicate whether the page was hashed in as a 64k page or a set of 4k pages. If hash_page is trying to insert a 4k page for a Linux PTE and it sees that it has already been inserted as a 64k page, it first invalidates the 64k HPTE before inserting the 4k HPTE. The hash invalidation routines also use the _PAGE_COMBO bit, to determine whether to look for a 64k HPTE or a set of 4k HPTEs to remove. With those two changes, we can tolerate a mix of 4k and 64k HPTEs in the hash table, and they will all get removed when the address space is torn down.

2006-06-09[PATCH] powerpc: Implement PR_[GS]ET_UNALIGN prctls for powerpcPaul Mackerras
This gives the ability to control whether alignment exceptions get fixed up or reported to the process as a SIGBUS, using the existing PR_SET_UNALIGN and PR_GET_UNALIGN prctls. We do not implement the option of logging a message on alignment exceptions. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
2006-06-09[PATCH] powerpc: Implement support for setting little-endian mode via prctlPaul Mackerras
This adds the PowerPC part of the code to allow processes to change their endian mode via prctl. This also extends the alignment exception handler to be able to fix up alignment exceptions that occur in little-endian mode, both for "PowerPC" little-endian and true little-endian. We always enter signal handlers in big-endian mode -- the support for little-endian mode does not amount to the creation of a little-endian user/kernel ABI. If the signal handler returns, the endian mode is restored to what it was when the signal was delivered. We have two new kernel CPU feature bits, one for PPC little-endian and one for true little-endian. Most of the classic 32-bit processors support PPC little-endian, and this is reflected in the CPU feature table. There are two corresponding feature bits reported to userland in the AT_HWCAP aux vector entry. This is based on an earlier patch by Anton Blanchard. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
2006-06-09[PATCH] powerpc: Add udbg-immortal kernel optionBenjamin Herrenschmidt
When debugging early kernel crashes that happen after console_init() and before a proper console driver takes over, we often have to go hack into udbg.c to prevent it from unregistering so we can "see" what is happening.

2006-06-09[PATCH] powerpc: reorg RTAS delay codeJohn Rose
This patch attempts to handle RTAS "busy" return codes in a more simple and consistent manner. Typical callers of RTAS shouldn't have to manage wait times and delay calls. This patch also changes the kernel to use msleep() rather than udelay() when a runtime delay is necessary. This will avoid CPU soft lockups for extended delay conditions.

I do not understand why historically these tags has been defined as PPC_PTRACE_GETREGS and PPC_PTRACE_SETREGS instead of simply PTRACE_[GS]ETREGS.

2006-05-19[PATCH] powerpc: Auto reserve of device tree blobJimi Xenidis
A devtree compiler (dtc) generated devtree blob is "relocatable" and so does not contain a reserved_map entry for the blob itself. This means that if passed to Linux, Linux will not get lmb_reserve() the blob and it could be over. The following patch will explicitly reserve the "blob" as it was given to us and stops prom_init.c from creating a reserved mapping for the blob. NOTE: that the dtc/kexec should not generate the blob reservation entry. Although if they do, LMB reserver handles overlaps.

2006-05-19[PATCH] powerpc: Unify mem= handlingMichael Ellerman
We currently do mem= handling in three seperate places. And as benh pointed out I wrote two of them. Now that we parse command line parameters earlier we can clean this mess up. Moving the parsing out of prom_init means the device tree might be allocated above the memory limit. If that happens we'd have to move it. As it happens we already have logic to do that for kdump, so just genericise it. This also means we might have reserved regions above the memory limit, if we do the bootmem allocator will blow up, so we have to modify lmb_enforce_memory_limit() to truncate the reserves as well.

2006-05-16[PATCH] Fix pSeries identification in prom_init.cBenjamin Herrenschmidt
The OF trampoline code prom_init.c still needs to identify IBM pSeries (PAPR) machines in order to run some platform specific code on them like instanciating the TCE tables. The code doing that detection was changed recently in 2.6.17 early stages but was done slightly incorrectly. It should be testing for an exact match of "chrp" and it currently tests for anything that begins with "chrp". That means it will incorrectly match with platforms using Maple-like device-trees and have open firmware. This fixes it by using strcmp instead of strncmp to match what the actual platform detection code does.
