Impact: fix for PowerPC 32 code
There were some early init code that was not safe for static
ftrace to boot on my PowerBook. This code must only use relative
addressing, and static mcount performs a compare of the
ftrace_trace_function pointer, and gets that with an absolute address.
In the early init boot up code, this will cause a fault.
This patch removes tracing from the files containing the offending
functions.

Impact: clean up
Paul Mackerras pointed out that the code to determine if the branch
can reach the destination is incorrect. Michael Ellerman suggested
to pull out the code from create_branch and use that.
Simply using create_branch is probably the best.

Impact: clean up and robustness addition
This patch addresses the comments made by Paul Mackerras.
It removes the type casting between unsigned int and unsigned char
pointers, and replaces them with a use of all unsigned int.
Verification that the jump is indeed made to a trampoline has also
been added.

Impact: quicken mcount calls that are not replaced by dyn ftrace
Dynamic ftrace no longer does on the fly recording of mcount locations.
The mcount locations are now found at compile time. The mcount
function no longer needs to store registers and call a stub function.
It can now just simply return.
Since there are some functions that do not get converted to a nop
(.init sections and other code that may disappear), this patch should
help speed up that code.
Also, the stub for mcount on PowerPC 32 can not be a simple branch
link register like it is on PowerPC 64. According to the ABI specification:
"The _mcount routine is required to restore the link register from
the stack so that the profiling code can be inserted transparently,
whether or not the profiled function saves the link register itself."
This means that we must restore the link register that was used
to make the call to mcount. The minimal mcount function for PPC32
ends up being:
mcount:
mflr r0
mtctr r0
lwz r0, 4(r1)
mtlr r0
bctr
Where we move the link register used to call mcount into the
ctr register, and then restore the link register from the stack.
Then we use the ctr register to jump back to the mcount caller.
The r0 register is free for us to use.

Impact: fix for irq off latency tracer
When idle is called, interrupts are disabled, but the idle function

A patch has already been submitted to dtc/libfdt mainline. We don't

The size of the pm_signal_local array should be equal to the

array is of size 4 (NR_PHYS_CTRS) but being indexed by a for
loop from 0 to 7 (NUM_SPUS_PER_NODE). This could potentially
cause an oops or random memory corruption since the pm_signal_local
array is on the stack. This fixes it.

The Freescale implementation of MPIC only allows a single CPU destination
for non-IPI interrupts. We add a flag to the mpic_init to distinquish
these variants of MPIC. We pull in the irq_choose_cpu from sparc64 to
select a single CPU as the destination of the interrupt.
This is to deal with the fact that the default smp affinity was
changed by commit 18404756765c713a0be4eb1082920c04822ce588 ("genirq:

After the merge of the 32 and 64bit DMA code, dma_direct_ops lost
their map/unmap_single() functions but gained map/unmap_page(). This
caused a problem for Cell because Cell's dma_iommu_fixed_ops called
the dma_direct_ops if the fixed linear mapping was to be used or the
iommu ops if the dynamic window was to be used. So in order to fix
this problem we need to update the 64bit DMA code to use
map/unmap_page.
First, we update the generic IOMMU code so that iommu_map_single()
becomes iommu_map_page() and iommu_unmap_single() becomes
iommu_unmap_page(). Then we propagate these changes up through all
the callers of these two functions and in the process update all the
dma_mapping_ops so that they have map/unmap_page rahter than
map/unmap_single. We can do this because on 64bit there is no HIGHMEM
memory so map/unmap_page ends up performing exactly the same function
as map/unmap_single, just taking different arguments.
This has no affect on drivers because the dma_map_single_attrs() just
ends up calling the map_page() function of the appropriate
dma_mapping_ops and similarly the dma_unmap_single_attrs() calls
unmap_page().
This fixes an oops on Cell blades, which oops on boot without this
because they call dma_direct_ops.map_single, which is NULL.

Not having these resources allocated causes an oops when removing

The diff appears a bit messy, this is mainly due to moving everything
one tab to the left in the pcibios_allocate_bus_resources routine.
The functionality change in this routine is only that the

Currently, the numa_node of OF-devices will be overwritten during
device_register, which simply sets the node to -1. On cell machines,
this means that devices can't find their IOMMU, which is referenced
through the device's numa node.
Set the numa node for OF devices with no parent, and use the
lower-level device_initialize and device_add functions, so that the
node is preserved.
We can remove the call to set_dev_node in of_device_alloc, as it
will be overwritten during register.

Since VSX support was added, we now have two sizes of ucontext_t;
the older, smaller size without the extra VSX state, and the new
larger size with the extra VSX state. A program using the
sys_swapcontext system call and supplying smaller ucontext_t
structures will currently get an EINVAL error if the task has
used VSX (e.g. because of calling library code that uses VSX) and
the old_ctx argument is non-NULL (i.e. the program is asking for
its current context to be saved). Thus the program will start
getting EINVAL errors on calls that previously worked.
This commit changes this behaviour so that we don't send an EINVAL in
this case. It will now return the smaller context but the VSX MSR bit
will always be cleared to indicate that the ucontext_t doesn't include
the extra VSX state, even if the task has executed VSX instructions.
Both 32 and 64 bit cases are updated.

Commit 549e8152de8039506f69c677a4546e5427aa6ae7 ("powerpc: Make the
64-bit kernel as a position-independent executable") added lines to
vmlinux.lds.S to add the extra sections needed to implement a
relocatable kernel. However, those lines seem to trigger a bug in
older versions of GNU ld (such as 2.16.1) when building a
non-relocatable kernel. Since ld 2.16.1 is still a popular choice for
cross-toolchains, this adds an #ifdef to vmlinux.lds.S so the added
lines are only included when building a relocatable kernel.

The __kdump_flag ABI is overly constraining for future development.
As of 2.6.27, the kernel entry point has 4 constraints: Offset 0 is
the starting point for the master (boot) cpu (entered with r3 pointing
to the device tree structure), offset 0x60 is code for the slave cpus
(entered with r3 set to their device tree physical id), offset 0x20 is
used by the iseries hypervisor, and secondary cpus must be well behaved
when the first 256 bytes are copied to address 0.
Placing the __kdump_flag at 0x18 is bad because:
- It was taking the last 8 bytes before the iseries hypervisor data.
- It was 8 bytes for a boolean flag
- It had no way of identifying that the flag was present
- It does leave any room for the master to add any additional code
before branching, which hurts debug.
- It will be unnecessarily hard for 32 bit code to be common (8 bytes)
Now that we have eliminated the use of __kdump_flag in favor of
the standard is_kdump_kernel(), this flag only controls run without
relocating the kernel to PHYSICAL_START (0), so rename it __run_at_load.
Move the flag to 0x5c, 1 word before the secondary cpu entry point at
0x60. Initialize it with "run0" to say it will run at 0 unless it is
set to 1. It only exists if we are relocatable.

Commit 54622f10a6aabb8bb2bdacf3dd070046f03dc246 ("powerpc: Support for
relocatable kdump kernel") added a magic flag value in a register to
tell purgatory that it should be a panic kernel. This part is wrong
and is reverted by this commit.
The kernel gets a list of memory blocks and a entry point from user space.
Its job is to copy the blocks into place and then branch to the designated
entry point (after turning "off" the mmu).
The user space tool inserts a trampoline, called purgatory, that runs
before the user supplied code. Its job is to establish the entry
environment for the new kernel or other application based on the contents
of memory. The purgatory code is compiled and embedded in the tool,
where it is later patched using the elf symbol table using elf symbols.
Since the tool knows it is creating a purgatory that will run after a

The init_phy() function attaches to the PHY, then configures the
SerDes<->TBI link (in SGMII mode). The TBI is on the MDIO bus with the PHY
(sort of) and is accessed via the gianfar's MDIO registers, using the
functions gfar_local_mdio_read/write(), which don't do any locking.
The previously attached PHY will start a work-queue on a timer, and
probably an irq handler as well, which will talk to the PHY and thus use
the MDIO bus. This uses phy_read/write(), which have locking, but not
against the gfar_local_mdio versions.
The result is that PHY code will try to use the MDIO bus at the same time
as the SerDes setup code, corrupting the transfers.
Setting up the SerDes before attaching to the PHY will insure that there is
no race between the SerDes code and *our* PHY, but doesn't fix everything.
Typically the PHYs for all gianfar devices are on the same MDIO bus, which
is associated with the first gianfar device. This means that the first
gianfar's SerDes code could corrupt the MDIO transfers for a different
gianfar's PHY.
The lock used by phy_read/write() is contained in the mii_bus structure,
which is pointed to by the PHY. This is difficult to access from the
gianfar drivers, as there is no link between a gianfar device and the
mii_bus which shares the same MDIO registers. As far as the device layer
and drivers are concerned they are two unrelated devices (which happen to
share registers).
Generally all gianfar devices' PHYs will be on the bus associated with the
first gianfar. But this might not be the case, so simply locking the
gianfar's PHY's mii bus might not lock the mii bus that the SerDes setup
code is going to use.
We solve this by having the code that creates the gianfar platform device
look in the device tree for an mdio device that shares the gianfar's
registers. If one is found the ID of its platform device is saved in the
gianfar's platform data.
A new function in the gianfar mii code, gfar_get_miibus(), can use the bus
ID to search through the platform devices for a gianfar_mdio device with
the right ID. The platform device's driver data is the mii_bus structure,
which the SerDes setup code can use to lock the current bus.

The current defconfig for Linkstation/Kuroboxes has the "Disable Heap
Randomization" option enabled.
Since some of these machines are facing the internet, it helps to have
heap randomization enabled. This patch enables it.

Since Linkstations and Kuroboxes often have *very* little memory (as
they are embedded systems), it is desirable to get their kernels
compiled optimized for size.

The i2c bus defn is broken on linkstation / kurobox machines since at
least 2.6.27. Fix it. Also remove CONFIG_SERIAL_OF_PLATFORM, which, if
enabled, breaks the serial console after the
"console handover: boot [udbg0] -> real [ttyS1]" message.
