Implement show_unhandled_signals sysctl + support to print when a process is killed due to unhandled signals just as i386 and x86_64 does. Default to having it off, unlike x86 that defaults on. Signed-off-by: Olof Johansson <olof@lixom.net> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

Currently find_legacy_serial_ports() can find no serial ports on the OPB with flattened device tree. Thus no legacy boot console can be initialized. Just the early udbg console works, which is initialized with udbg_init_44x_as1 on the UART's physical address specified in kernel config. This happens because we look for ns16750 serial devices only and expect opb node to have a device type property. This patch makes it look for ns16550-compatible devices and use of_device_is_compatible() for opb in case device type is not specified.

This makes the kernel use 1TB segments for all kernel mappings and for user addresses of 1TB and above, on machines which support them (currently POWER5+, POWER6 and PA6T). We detect that the machine supports 1TB segments by looking at the ibm,processor-segment-sizes property in the device tree. We don't currently use 1TB segments for user addresses < 1T, since that would effectively prevent 32-bit processes from using huge pages unless we also had a way to revert to using 256MB segments. That would be possible but would involve extra complications (such as keeping track of which segment size was used when HPTEs were inserted) and is not addressed here. Parts of this patch were originally written by Ben Herrenschmidt. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

The call to xilinxfb_assign is getting unwieldy when adding features to the Xilinx framebuffer driver. Change xilinxfb_assign() to accept a pointer to a xilinxfb_platform_data structure to prepare for adding additition configuration options.

All ppc32 systems except PReP and 8xx are capable of handling 3G of user address space. Old legacy had set this to 2GB and no one has bothered to fix it. 8xx could be bumped up to 3GB if its SW TLB miss handlers were fixed up to properly determine kernel/user addresses.

Move to using PAGE_OFFSET instead of TASK_SIZE or KERNELBASE value on 6xx/40x/44x/fsl-booke to determine if the faulting address is a kernel or user space address. This mimics how the macro is_kernel_addr() works. Signed-off-by: Kumar Gala <galak@kernel.crashing.org>

asm-powerpc/mpc85xx.h was really a hold over from arch/ppc. Now that more decoupling has occurred we can remove <asm/mpc85xx.h> and some of its legacy. As part of this we moved the definition of CPM_MAP_ADDR into cpm2.h for 85xx platforms. This is a stop gap until drivers stop using CPM_MAP_ADDR. Signed-off-by: Kumar Gala <galak@kernel.crashing.org>

In testing the new clocksource and clockevent code on a PPC601 processor, I discovered that the clockevent multiplier value for the decrementer clockevent was overflowing. Because the RTCL register in the 601 effectively counts at 1GHz (it doesn't actually, but it increases by 128 every 128ns), and the shift value was 32, that meant the multiplier value had to be 2^32, which won't fit in an unsigned long on 32-bit. The same problem would arise on any platform where the timebase frequency was 1GHz or more (not that we actually have any such machines today). This fixes it by reducing the shift value to 16. Doing the calculations with a resolution of 2^-16 nanoseconds (15 femtoseconds) should be quite adequate. :) Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

On old powermacs, we sometimes set the decrementer to 1 in order to trigger a decrementer interrupt, which we use to handle an interrupt that was pending at the time when it was re-enabled. This was causing the decrementer clock event device to call the event function for the next event early, which was causing problems when high-res timers were not enabled. This fixes the problem by recording the timebase value at which the next event should occur, and checking the current timebase against the recorded value in timer_interrupt. If it isn't time for the next event, it just reprograms the decrementer and returns. This also subtracts 1 from the value stored into the decrementer, which is appropriate because the decrementer interrupts on the transition from 0 to -1, not when the decrementer reaches 0.

Some IBM machines supply a "logical" PVR (processor version register) value in the device tree in the cpu nodes rather than the real PVR. This is used for instance to indicate that the processors in a POWER6 partition have been configured by the hypervisor to run in POWER5+ mode rather than POWER6 mode. To cope with this, we call identify_cpu a second time with the logical PVR value (the first call is with the real PVR value in the very early setup code). However, POWER5+ machines can also supply a logical PVR value, and use the same value (the value that indicates a v2.04 architecture compliant processor). This causes problems for code that uses the performance monitor (such as oprofile), because the PMU registers are different in POWER6 (even in POWER5+ mode) from the real POWER5+. This change works around this problem by taking out the PMU information from the cputable entries for the logical PVR values, and changing identify_cpu so that the second call to it won't overwrite the PMU information that was established by the first call (the one with the real PVR), but does update the other fields. Specifically, if the cputable entry for the logical PVR value has num_pmcs == 0, none of the PMU-related fields get used. So that we can create a mixed cputable entry, we now make cur_cpu_spec point to a single static struct cpu_spec, and copy stuff from cpu_specs[i] into it. This has the side-effect that we can now make cpu_specs[] be initdata. Ultimately it would be good to move the PMU-related fields out to a separate structure, pointed to by the cputable entries, and change identify_cpu so that it saves the PMU info pointer, copies the whole structure, and restores the PMU info pointer, rather than identify_cpu having to list all the fields that are *not* PMU-related.

Don't allow cpu hotplug on systems lacking XICS interrupt controller (i.e. with an MPIC interrupt controller), since the current pSeries platform code is hardcoded for XICS. This works around the bug reported by Paul Mackerras where the disable_nonboot_cpus() call recently added to the shutdown path will cause an oops on older pSeries machines.

Our _GLOBAL macro does a ".align 2" so the alignment is fine for 32 bit, but on 64 bit it is possible for it to end up only 4 byte aligned. I don't know if it matters, but it can't hurt to 8 byte align it. It also means that when we build with --emit_relocs, none of our 64 bit relocations are to misaligned places.
