In 2.6.14, we had the following definition of _GLOBAL() in include/asm-ppc/processor.h: #define _GLOBAL(n)\ .stabs __stringify(n:F-1),N_FUN,0,0,n;\ .globl n;\ n: In 2.6.15, as part of the great powerpc merge, we moved this definition to include/asm-powerpc/ppc_asm.h, where it appears (to 32-bit code) as: #define _GLOBAL(n) \ .text; \ .stabs __stringify(n:F-1),N_FUN,0,0,n;\ .globl n; \ n: Mostly, this is fine. However, we also have the following, in arch/ppc/boot/common/util.S: .section ".relocate_code","xa" [...] _GLOBAL(flush_instruction_cache) [...] _GLOBAL(flush_data_cache) [...] The addition of the .text section definition in the definition of _GLOBAL overrides the .relocate_code section definition. As a result, these two functions don't end up in .relocate_code, so they don't get relocated correctly, and the boot fails. There's another suspicious-looking usage at kernel/swsusp.S:37 that someone should look into. I did not exhaustively search the source tree, though. The following is the minimal patch that fixes the immediate problem. I could easily be convinced that the _GLOBAL definition should be modified to remove the ".text;" line either instead of, or in addition to, this fix.

For far, all SPU triggered interrupts always end up on the first SMT thread, which is a bad solution. This patch implements setting the affinity to the CPU that was running last when entering execution on an SPU. This should result in a significant reduction in IPI calls and better cache locality for SPE thread specific data.

The size of the local store is architecture defined and independent from the page size, so it should not be defined in terms of pages in the first place.

In a hypervisor based setup, direct access to the first priviledged register space can typically not be allowed to the kernel and has to be implemented through hypervisor calls. As suggested by Masato Noguchi, let's abstract the register access trough a number of function calls. Since there is currently no public specification of actual hypervisor calls to implement this, I only provide a place that makes it easier to hook into.

Only checking for SPUFS_MAGIC is not reliable, because it might not be unique in theory.

include/asm-ppc/ had #ifdef __KERNEL__ in all header files that are not meant for use by user space, include/asm-powerpc does not have this yet. This patch gets us a lot closer there. There are a few cases where I was not sure, so I left them out. I have verified that no CONFIG_* symbols are used outside of __KERNEL__ any more and that there are no obvious compile errors when including any of the headers in user space libraries.

On ppc64, we independently define VMALLOCBASE and VMALLOC_START to be the same thing: the start of the vmalloc() area at 0xd000000000000000. VMALLOC_START is used much more widely, including in generic code, so this patch gets rid of the extraneous VMALLOCBASE. This does require moving the definitions of region IDs from page_64.h to pgtable.h, but they don't clearly belong in the former rather than the latter, anyway. While we're moving them, clean up the definitions of the REGION_IDs: - Abolish REGION_SIZE, it was only used once, to define REGION_MASK anyway - Define the specific region ids in terms of the REGION_ID() macro. - Define KERNEL_REGION_ID in terms of PAGE_OFFSET rather than KERNELBASE. It amounts to the same thing, but conceptually this is about the region of the linear mapping (which starts at PAGE_OFFSET) rather than of the kernel text itself (which is at KERNELBASE).

This adds some very basic support for the new machines, including the Quad G5 (tested), and other new dual core based machines and iMac G5 iSight (untested). This is still experimental ! There is no thermal control yet, there is no proper handing of MSIs, etc.. but it boots, I have all 4 cores up on my machine. Compared to the previous version of this patch, this one adds DART IOMMU support for the U4 chipset and thus should work fine on setups with more than 2Gb of RAM.

The pre-parsed addrs/n_addrs fields in struct device_node are finally gone. Remove the dodgy heuristics that did that parsing at boot and remove the fields themselves since we now have a good replacement with the new OF parsing code.
