This updates the OF address parsers to return the IO flags indicating the type of address obtained. It also adds a PCI call for converting physical addresses that hit IO space into into IO tokens, and add routines that return the translated addresses into struct resource Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

The udbg low level io layer has an issue with udbg_getc() returning a char (unsigned on ppc) instead of an int, thus the -1 if you had no available input device could end up turned into 0xff, filling your display with bogus characters. This fixes it, along with adding a little blob to xmon to do a delay before exiting when getting an EOF and fixing the detection of ADB keyboards in udbg_adb.c Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

23-rpaphp-migrate.patch (parts) This patch moves some pci device add & remove code from the PCI hotplug directory to the arch/powerpc/kernel directory, and cleans it up a tad. The primary reason for this is that the code performs some fairly generic operations that are shared with the PCI error recovery code (living in the arch/powerpc/kernel directory).

22-rpaphp-eliminate-dupe-code.patch (parts) The RPAPHP code contains two routines that appear to be gratuitous copies of very similar pci code. In particular, rpaphp_claim_resource ~~ pci_claim_resource rpadlpar_claim_one_bus == pcibios_claim_one_bus This makes pcibios_claim_one_bus from arch/powerpc/kernel/pci_64.c available to the RPAPHP code.

20-rpaphp-eeh-cleanup.patch This patch move some code from the rpaphp directory, to the powerpc directory, where it should have been all along (Among other things, I need it in the powerpc directory for the PCI error recovery.) Please note that patch affects TWO maintainers: Paul, after applying the powerpc part, please ask that GregKH appli the PCI part. It is safe to have the powerpc part go in first.

This makes ARCH=ppc build in your powerpc tree again, with the new syscall entry/exit path. Still doesn't actually boot on my Pegasos; the last thing I see is 'MMU:exit'. But at least it builds -- I'll look at why it doesn't boot later, so that I can see if the mv643xx_eth actually works with ARCH=ppc (it doesn't with ARCH=powerpc; two in every three packets I receive are offset by 4 bytes).

This updates m8xx_wdt as follows: 1) Remove now obsolete fpos check in the write() function. The driver is currently non functional due to this bug. 2) Use in/out macros for register access. 3) Allows m8xx_wdt to use a kernel timer instead of the builtin RTC/PIT for keep-alive trigger (which is responsible for servicing the watchdog until an userspace application takes over). For instance Cyclades PRxK boards (MPC 855T based) have a non-functional internal RTC/PIT unit. Behaviour for boards with RTC/PIT is unchaged. 4) The last change required moving the RTCSC register setting code to a weak function which can be overriden by board specific files. Otherwise the timer init code trashes the register making it impossible for m8xx_wdt to detect the situation.

This patch removes several unnecessary fields from the paca: - next_jiffy_update_tb was simply unused. Remove trivially. - The exdsi exception save area was not used. There were plans to use it, but they never seem to have gone anywhere. If they ever do, we can put it back. Remove from the paca, and from asm-offsets.c - The default_decr field was used from asm, but was only ever assigned the value of tb_ticks_per_jiffy. Just access tb_ticks_per_jiffy from asm directly instead. Built and booted on POWER5 LPAR and iSeries RS64.

On iSeries, the paca contains, amongst other things an ItLpRegSave structure used by the hypervisor to save registers. The hypervisor locates this area through a pointer at the beginning of the paca, so the structure itself can be located elsewhere. This patch moves the reg_save area out into its own array. This reduces the amount of iSeries specific gunk which is visible to general powerpc code via paca.h Built and booted on POWER5 LPAR and iSeries RS64.

Currently, the powerpc version of hugetlb_get_unmapped_area() entirely ignores the hint address. The only way to get a hugepage mapping at a specified address is with MAP_FIXED, in which case there's no way (short of parsing /proc/self/maps) for userspace to tell if it will clobber an existing mapping. This is inconvenient, so the patch below makes hugepage mappings use the given hint address if possible.

This patch unifies udbg for both ppc32 and ppc64 when building the merged achitecture. xmon now has a single "back end". The powermac udbg stuff gets enriched with some ADB capabilities and btext output. In addition, the early_init callback is now called on ppc32 as well, approx. in the same order as ppc64 regarding device-tree manipulations. The init sequences of ppc32 and ppc64 are getting closer, I'll unify them in a later patch. For now, you can force udbg to the scc using "sccdbg" or to btext using "btextdbg" on powermacs. I'll implement a cleaner way of forcing udbg output to something else than the autodetected OF output device in a later patch.

This moves the discovery of legacy serial ports to a separate file, makes it common to ppc32 and ppc64, and reworks it to use the new OF address translators to get to the ports early. This new version can also detect some PCI serial cards using legacy chips and will probably match those discovered port with the default console choice. Only ppc64 gets udbg still yet, unifying udbg isn't finished yet. It also adds some speed-probing code to udbg so that the default console can come up at the same speed it was set to by the firmware.

Parsing addresses extracted from Open Firmware isn't a simple matter. We have various bits of code that try to do it in various place, including some heuristics in prom.c that pre-parse addresses at boot and fill device-nodes "addrs", but those are dodgy at best and I want to deprecate them. So this patch introduces a new set of routines that should be capable of parsing most types of addresses and translating them into CPU physical addresses. It currently works for things on PCI busses and ISA busses and should work on "standard" busses like the root bus or the MacIO bus that don't put funky flags in addresses. If you have other bus types that do use funky flags, you'll have to add new bus type translators, which is fairly easy.

This adds a scheduler for SPUs to make it possible to use more logical SPUs than physical ones are present in the system. Currently, there is no support for preempting a running SPU thread, they have to leave the SPU by either triggering an event on the SPU that causes it to return to the owning thread or by sending a signal to it. This patch also adds operations that enable accessing an SPU in either runnable or saved state. We use an RW semaphore to protect the state of the SPU from changing underneath us, while we are holding it readable. In order to change the state, it is acquired writeable and a context save or restore is executed before downgrading the semaphore to read-only.

Add some infrastructure for saving and restoring the context of an SPE. This patch creates a new structure that can hold the whole state of a physical SPE in memory. It also contains code that avoids races during the context switch and the binary code that is loaded to the SPU in order to access its registers.

This is the current version of the spu file system, used for driving SPEs on the Cell Broadband Engine. This release is almost identical to the version for the 2.6.14 kernel posted earlier, which is available as part of the Cell BE Linux distribution from http://www.bsc.es/projects/deepcomputing/linuxoncell/. The first patch provides all the interfaces for running spu application, but does not have any support for debugging SPU tasks or for scheduling. Both these functionalities are added in the subsequent patches. See Documentation/filesystems/spufs.txt on how to use spufs.

This cleanup patch speeds up the null syscall path on ppc64 by about 3%, and brings the ppc32 and ppc64 code slightly closer together. The ppc64 code was checking current_thread_info()->flags twice in the syscall exit path; once for TIF_SYSCALL_T_OR_A before disabling interrupts, and then again for TIF_SIGPENDING|TIF_NEED_RESCHED etc after disabling interrupts. Now we do the same as ppc32 -- check the flags only once in the fast path, and re-enable interrupts if necessary in the ptrace case. The patch abolishes the 'syscall_noerror' member of struct thread_info and replaces it with a TIF_NOERROR bit in the flags, which is handled in the slow path. This shortens the syscall entry code, which no longer needs to clear syscall_noerror. The patch adds a TIF_SAVE_NVGPRS flag which causes the syscall exit slow path to save the non-volatile GPRs into a signal frame. This removes the need for the assembly wrappers around sys_sigsuspend(), sys_rt_sigsuspend(), et al which existed solely to save those registers in advance. It also means I don't have to add new wrappers for ppoll() and pselect(), which is what I was supposed to be doing when I got distracted into this... Finally, it unifies the ppc64 and ppc32 methods of handling syscall exit directly into a signal handler (as required by sigsuspend et al) by introducing a TIF_RESTOREALL flag which causes _all_ the registers to be reloaded from the pt_regs by taking the ret_from_exception path, instead of the normal syscall exit path which stomps on the callee-saved GPRs. It appears to pass an LTP test run on ppc64, and passes basic testing on ppc32 too. Brief tests of ptrace functionality with strace and gdb also appear OK. I wouldn't send it to Linus for 2.6.15 just yet though :) Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
