cpu_purr_data is a per-cpu array used to account for stolen time on partitioned systems. It used to be the case that cpus accessed each others' cpu_purr_data, so each entry was protected by a spinlock. However, the code was reworked ("Simplify stolen time calculation") with the result that each cpu accesses its own cpu_purr_data and not those of other cpus. This means we can get rid of the spinlock as long as we're careful to disable interrupts when accessing cpu_purr_data in process context. Signed-off-by:Nathan Lynch <ntl@pobox.com> Signed-off-by:

With both generic rtc and powerpc timer suspend / resume code now in the (powerpc.git) tree, powerpc platforms using the generic timer and enabling power management will have timer.o linked in the kernel, which they don't need. Moreover, it will likely WARN_ON(!ppc_md.get_rtc_time), save zero-time and return no error on suspend... As a possible solution we can choose not to build timer.o when RTC_CLASS is enabled. However, I can imagine systems with 2 rtc's, one served by the ppc-rtc, another one generic built as a module, in which case using the ppc-rtc for suspend / resume will be impossible. Not to say, that such a configuration would be ugly... Signed-off-by:

Glue code to hook up the pata_platform on the PA Semi Electra eval board. CFE sets up device tree entries for the IDE interface, with device type 'ide' and compatible field 'electra-ide'. We unfortunately need to modify the resources before calling the generic platform driver, since the device tree only has one register window in it and the driver expects two. Adding this as an of_platform driver instead doesn't give us any benefit, it just adds one more layer of register/probe functions. Since CONFIG_PATA_PLATFORM depends on CONFIG_EMBEDDED, add that as a default for PPC_PASEMI. Signed-off-by:

This makes the timer sysdev use mktime instead of rtc_tm_to_time, since rtc_tm_to_time just calls mktime anyway, and this means we don't have a dependency on rtc-lib. Signed-off-by:

With this, when kexec-ing, we copy the code and start the slaves on their journey to the next kernel's spin loop as soon as we copy the kexec image into place. The kernel doesn't know exactly which slaves are spinning in kexec_wait. This allows us to pass more than max-cpus to the next kernel. But it also means that we might leave some behind. Moving the code here means they have the time it takes us to clear the hash table to wake up and move on. Moving the code any earlier would reuqire walking the image description to search for the code, which could span multiple pages. Signed-off-by:

This fixes some problems with the way the some things represented in the device tree for the Holly and Taiga boards. This means changes both to the dts files, and to the code which instantiates the tsi108 ethernet platform devices based on the device tree. - First, and most importantly, the ethernet PHYs are given with an identical 'reg' property. This reg currently encodes the accessible register used to initiate mdio interaction with the PHYs, rather than a meaningful address on the parent bus (mdio in this case), which is incorrect. Instead we give the address of these registers as 'reg' in the mdio node itself, and encode the ID of each phy in their 'reg' propertyies. - Currently the platform device constructor enables a workaround in the tsi108 ethernet driver based on the compatible property of the PHY. This is incorrect, because the workaround in question is necessary due to the board's wiring of the PHY, not the model of PHY itself. This patch alters the constructor to instead enable the workaround based on a new special property in the PHY node. - The compatible properties on a number of nodes in the device tree are insufficiently precise. In particular the PHYs give only "bcm54xx", which is broken, since there are many bcm54xx PHY models, and they have differences which matter. The mdio had a compatible property of "tsi-ethernet" identical to the ethernet MAC nodes, which doesn't make sense. The ethernet, i2c, bridge and PCI nodes were given only as "tsi-*" which is somewhat inprecise, we replace with "tsi108-*" in the case of Taiga (which has a TSI108 bridge), and "tsi109-*", "tsi108-*" in the case of Holly (which has a TSI109 bridge). - We remove some "model" properties from the ethernets on Taiga board which were neither useful nor adequately precise. - On Holly we change to using a dtc label instead of a full path to reference the MPIC node, which makes the dts a little more readable.

Currently, the Holly device tree includes a bootargs property in /chosen, which gives a commandline. This is somewhat inconvenient, because it means an alternative default command line can't be given in the kernel config - the value obtained from the dts via the bootwrapper will always override CONFIG_CMDLINE. This removes the command line from the dts, and instead puts the same command line as a default in holly_defconfig. Signed-off-by:

The various cuboot platforms (i.e. pre-device tree aware u-boot for 83xx, 85xx and Ebony) share a certain amount of code for parsing the boot parameters. To a certain extent that's inevitable, since they platforms have different definitions of the bd_t structure. However, with some macro work and a helper function, this patch improves the situation a bit. In the process, this fixes a bug on Ebony, which was incorrectly handling the parameters passed form u-boot for the command line (the bug was copied from 83xx and 85xx which have subsequently been fixed).

In the device tree for Ebony, the 'ranges' property in the node for the EBC bridge shows the mappings from the chip select / address lines actually used for the EBC peripherals into the address space of the OPB. At present, these mappings are hardcoded in ebony.dts for the mappings set up by the OpenBIOS firmware when it configures the EBC bridge. This replaces the hardcoded mappings with code in the zImage to read the EBC configuration registers and create an appropriate ranges property based on them. This should make the zImage and kernel more robust to changes in firmware configuration. In particular, some of the Ebony's DIP switches can change the effective address of the Flash and other peripherals in OPB space. With this patch, the kernel will be able to cope with at least some of the possible variations. Signed-off-by:

Currently the powerpc kernel has a 64-bit only feature, COHERENT_ICACHE used for those CPUS which maintain icache/dcache coherency in hardware (POWER5, essentially). It also has a feature, SPLIT_ID_CACHE, which is used on CPUs which have separate i and d-caches, which is to say everything except 601 and Freescale E200. In nearly all the places we check the SPLIT_ID_CACHE, what we actually care about is whether the i and d-caches are coherent (which they will be, trivially, if they're the same cache). This tries to clarify the situation a little. The COHERENT_ICACHE feature becomes availble on 32-bit and is set for all CPUs where i and d-cache are effectively coherent, whether this is due to special logic (POWER5) or because they're unified. We check this, instead of SPLIT_ID_CACHE nearly everywhere. The SPLIT_ID_CACHE feature itself is replaced by a UNIFIED_ID_CACHE feature with reversed sense, set only on 601 and Freescale E200. In the two places (one Freescale BookE specific) where we really care whether it's a unified cache, not whether they're coherent, we check this feature. The CPUs with unified cache are so few, we could consider replacing this feature bit with explicit checks against the PVR. This will make unifying the 32-bit and 64-bit cache flush code a little more straightforward. Signed-off-by:

Using typedefs to rename structure types if frowned on by CodingStyle. However, we do so for the hash PTE structure on both ppc32 (where it's called "PTE") and ppc64 (where it's called "hpte_t"). On ppc32 we also have such a typedef for the BATs ("BAT"). This removes this unhelpful use of typedefs, in the process bringing ppc32 and ppc64 closer together, by using the name "struct hash_pte" in both cases. Signed-off-by: -

This factors some things defined in both pgtable-ppc32.h and pgtable-ppc64.h into the common part of asm-powerpc/pgtable.h.

arch/powerpc still relies on asm-ppc/mmu.h for most 32-bit MMU types. This is another step towards fixing this. It takes the portions of asm-ppc/mmu.h related to the "classic" 32-bit hash page table MMU which are still relevant in arch/powerpc and puts them in a new asm-powerpc/mmu-hash32.h, included when appropriate from asm-powerpc/mmu.h.

Currently, all OF-related code in the bootloader is contained in of.c. of.c also provides the platform specific things necessary to boot on an OF platform. However, there are platforms (such as PReP) which can include an OF implementation, but are not bootable as pure OF systems. For use by such platforms, this patch splits out the low-level parts of the OF code (call_prom() and various wrappers thereof) into a new oflib.c file. In addition, the code related to bootwrapper console output via OF are moved to a new ofconsole.c file. Both these files are included in the wrapper.a library where they can be used by both full-OF and partial OF platforms. Signed-off-by:

We have had complaints where a threaded application is left in a bad state after one of it's threads is killed when we hit a VM: out_of_memory condition. Killing just one of the process threads can leave the application in a bad state, whereas killing the entire process group would allow for the application to restart, or be otherwise handled, and makes it very obvious that something has gone wrong. This change allows the entire process group to be taken down, rather than just the one thread. lightly tested on powerpc Signed-off-by:

A Power6 can give up CPU cycles on a dedicated CPU (as opposed to a shared CPU) to other shared processors if the administrator asks for it (via the HMC). This enables that to work properly on P6. This just involves setting a bit in the CAS structure as well as the VPA. To donate cycles, a CPU has to have all SMT threads idle and have the donate bit set in the VPA. Then call H_CEDE. The reason why shared processors just aren't used is because dedicated CPUs are guaranteed an actual processor, yet the system is still able to increase the capacity of the shared CPU pool. Also rename the VPA's cpuctls_task_attrs field to a more accurate name. Signed-off-by:

The code for creating signal frames was still duplicated and split in strange ways between 32 and 64 bits, including the SA_ONSTACK handling being in do_signal on 32 bits but inside handle_rt_signal on 64 bits etc... This moves the 64 bits get_sigframe() to the generic signal.c, cleans it a bit, moves the access_ok() call done by all callers to it as well, and adapts/cleanups the 3 different signal handling cases to use that common function.

do_signal has exactly the same behaviour on 32bit and 64bit and 32bit compat on 64bit for handling 32bit signals. Consolidate all these into one common function in signal.c. The only odd left over is the try_to_free in the 32bit version that no other architecture has in mainline (only in i386 for some odd SuSE release). We should probably get rid of it in a separate patch. Signed-off-by:

sys_sigaltstack is the same on 32bit and 64 and we can consolidate it to signal.c. The only difference is that the 32bit code uses ints for the unused register paramaters and 64bit unsigned long. I've changed it to unsigned long because it's the same width on 32bit. (I also wonder who came up with this awkward calling convention.. :)) Signed-off-by:

This patch moves the code in signal_32.c and signal_64.c for handling syscall restart into a common signal.c file and converge around a single implementation that is based on the 32 bits one, using trap, ccr and r3 rather than the special "result" field for deciding what to do. The "result" field is now pretty much deprecated. We still set it for the sake of whatever might rely on it in userland but we no longer use it's content. This, along with a previous patch that enables ptracers to write to "trap" and "orig_r3" should allow gdb to properly handle syscall restarting. Signed-off-by:

This patch removes the #ifdef CONFIG_PPC64 around setting the DABR. The actual setting of the SPR inside of the set_dabr() function is dependent on CONFIG_PPC64 || CONFIG_6xx but you can always provide a ppc_md hook to override that. We should improve support for different HW breakpoints facilities but this is a first step. Signed-off-by:

One of the gratuitous difference between 32 and 64-bit ptrace is whether you can whack the MSR:FE0 and FE1 bits from ptrace. This patch forbids it unconditionally. In addition, the 64-bit kernels used to return the exception mode in the MSR on reads, but 32-bit kernels didn't. This patch makes it return those bits on both. Finally, since ptrace-ppc32.h and ptrace-ppc64.h are mostly empty now, and since the previous patch made ptrace32.c no longer need the MSR_DEBUGCHANGE definition, we just remove those 2 files and move back the remaining bits to ptrace.c (they were short lived heh ?).

This patch allows a ptracer to write to the "trap" and "orig_r3" words of the pt_regs. This, along with a subsequent patch to the signal restart code, should enable gdb to properly handle syscall restarting after executing a separate function (at least when there's no restart block). This patch also removes ptrace32.c code toying directly with the registers and makes it use the ptrace_get/put_reg() accessors for everything so that the logic for checking what is permitted is in only one place.

The powerpc ptrace interface is dodgy at best. We have defined our "own" versions of GETREGS/SETREGS/GETFPREGS/SETFPREGS that strangely take arguments in reverse order from other archs (in addition to having different request numbers) and have subtle issue, like not accessing all of the registers in their respective categories. This patch moves the implementation of those to a separate function in order to facilitate their deprecation in the future, and provides new ptrace requests that mirror the x86 and sparc ones and use the same numbers: PTRACE_GETREGS : returns an entire pt_regs (the whole thing, not only the 32 GPRs, though that doesn't include the FPRs etc... There's a compat version for 32 bits that returns a 32 bits compatible pt_regs (44 uints) PTRACE_SETREGS : sets an entire pt_regs (the whole thing, not only the 32 GPRs, though that doesn't include the FPRs etc... Some registers cannot be written to and will just be dropped, this is the same as with POKEUSR, that is anything above MQ on 32 bits and CCR on 64 bits. There is a compat version as well. PTRACE_GETFPREGS : returns all the FP registers -including- the FPSCR that is 33 doubles (regardless of 32/64 bits) PTRACE_SETFPREGS : sets all the FP registers -including- the FPSCR that is 33 doubles (regardless of 32/64 bits) And two that only exist on 64 bits kernels: PTRACE_GETREGS64 : Same as PTRACE_GETREGS, except there is no compat function, a 32 bits process will obtain the full 64 bits registers PTRACE_SETREGS64 : Same as PTRACE_SETREGS, except there is no compat function, a 32 bits process will set the full 64 bits registers The two later ones makes things easier to have a 32 bits debugger on a 64 bits program (or on a 32 bits program that uses the full 64 bits of the GPRs, which is possible though has issues that will be fixed in a later patch). Finally, while at it, the patch removes a whole bunch of code duplication between ptrace32.c and ptrace.c, in large part by having the former call into the later for all requests that don't need any special "compat" treatment.

The powerpc ptrace code has some weirdness, like a ptrace-common.h file that is actually ppc64 only and some of the 32 bits code ifdef'ed inside ptrace.c. There are also separate implementations for things like get/set_vrregs for 32 and 64 bits which is totally unnecessary. This patch cleans that up a bit by having a ptrace-common.h which contains really common code (and makes a lot more code common), and ptrace-ppc32.h and ptrace-ppc64.h files that contain the few remaining different bits.
