260de22faa [PATCH] powerpc: iseries: mf related cleanups
Some cleanups in the iSeries code.
 - Make mf_display_progress() check mf_initialized rather than the caller.
 - Set mf_initialized in mf_init() rather than in setup.c
 - Then move mf_initialized into mf.c, the only place it's used.
 - Move the mf related logic from iSeries_progress() to mf_display_progress()
 - Use a #define to size the pending_event_prealloc array
 - Use that define in the initialsation loop rather than sizeof jiggery pokery
 - Remove stupid comment(s)
 - Mark stuff static and/or __init

57cfb814f6 [PATCH] powerpc: Replace platform_is_lpar() with a firmware feature
It has been decreed that platform numbers are evil, so as a step in that
direction, replace platform_is_lpar() with a FW_FEATURE_LPAR bit.

Currently FW_FEATURE_LPAR really means i/pSeries LPAR, in the future we might
have to clean that up if we need to be more specific about what LPAR actually
means. But that's another patch ...

2ec5e3a867 [PATCH] fix kexec asm
While testing kexec and kdump we hit problems where the new kernel would
freeze or instantly reboot.  The easiest way to trigger it was to kexec a
kernel compiled for CONFIG_M586 on an athlon cpu.  Compiling for CONFIG_MK7
instead would work fine.

The patch fixes a few problems with the kexec inline asm.

1bd79336a4 powerpc: Fix various syscall/signal/swapcontext bugs
A careful reading of the recent changes to the system call entry/exit
paths revealed several problems, plus some things that could be
simplified and improved:

* 32-bit wasn't testing the _TIF_NOERROR bit in the syscall fast exit
  path, so it was only doing anything with it once it saw some other
  bit being set.  In other words, the noerror behaviour would apply to
  the next system call where we had to reschedule or deliver a signal,
  which is not necessarily the current system call.

* 32-bit wasn't doing the call to ptrace_notify in the syscall exit
  path when the _TIF_SINGLESTEP bit was set.

* _TIF_RESTOREALL was in both _TIF_USER_WORK_MASK and
  _TIF_PERSYSCALL_MASK, which is odd since _TIF_RESTOREALL is only set
  by system calls.  I took it out of _TIF_USER_WORK_MASK.

* On 64-bit, _TIF_RESTOREALL wasn't causing the non-volatile registers
  to be restored (unless perhaps a signal was delivered or the syscall
  was traced or single-stepped).  Thus the non-volatile registers
  weren't restored on exit from a signal handler.  We probably got
  away with it mostly because signal handlers written in C wouldn't
  alter the non-volatile registers.

* On 32-bit I simplified the code and made it more like 64-bit by
  making the syscall exit path jump to ret_from_except to handle
  preemption and signal delivery.

* 32-bit was calling do_signal unnecessarily when _TIF_RESTOREALL was
  set - but I think because of that 32-bit was actually restoring the
  non-volatile registers on exit from a signal handler.

* I changed the order of enabling interrupts and saving the
  non-volatile registers before calling do_syscall_trace_leave; now we
  enable interrupts first.

c6622f63db powerpc: Implement accurate task and CPU time accounting
This implements accurate task and cpu time accounting for 64-bit
powerpc kernels.  Instead of accounting a whole jiffy of time to a
task on a timer interrupt because that task happened to be running at
the time, we now account time in units of timebase ticks according to
the actual time spent by the task in user mode and kernel mode.  We
also count the time spent processing hardware and software interrupts
accurately.  This is conditional on CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING.  If
that is not set, we do tick-based approximate accounting as before.

To get this accurate information, we read either the PURR (processor
utilization of resources register) on POWER5 machines, or the timebase
on other machines on

* each entry to the kernel from usermode
* each exit to usermode
* transitions between process context, hard irq context and soft irq
  context in kernel mode
* context switches.

On POWER5 systems with shared-processor logical partitioning we also
read both the PURR and the timebase at each timer interrupt and
context switch in order to determine how much time has been taken by
the hypervisor to run other partitions ("steal" time).  Unfortunately,
since we need values of the PURR on both threads at the same time to
accurately calculate the steal time, and since we can only calculate
steal time on a per-core basis, the apportioning of the steal time
between idle time (time which we ceded to the hypervisor in the idle
loop) and actual stolen time is somewhat approximate at the moment.

This is all based quite heavily on what s390 does, and it uses the
generic interfaces that were added by the s390 developers,
i.e. account_system_time(), account_user_time(), etc.

This patch doesn't add any new interfaces between the kernel and
userspace, and doesn't change the units in which time is reported to
userspace by things such as /proc/stat, /proc/<pid>/stat, getrusage(),
times(), etc.  Internally the various task and cpu times are stored in
timebase units, but they are converted to USER_HZ units (1/100th of a
second) when reported to userspace.  Some precision is therefore lost
but there should not be any accumulating error, since the internal
accumulation is at full precision.

cb2c9b2741 [PATCH] powerpc: Fix runlatch performance issues
The runlatch SPR can take a lot of time to write. My original runlatch
code would set it on every exception entry even though most of the time
this was not required. It would also continually set it in the idle
loop, which is an issue on an SMT capable processor.

Now we cache the runlatch value in a threadinfo bit, and only check for
it in decrementer and hardware interrupt exceptions as well as the idle
loop. Boot on POWER3, POWER5 and iseries, and compile tested on pmac32.

337a7128db [PATCH] powerpc: Only calculate htab_size in one place for kexec
For kexec we need to know the size of the MMU hash table.

Currently we calculate the size once in the htab code, and then twice more in
the kexec code, once using htab_hash_mask and once using ppc64_pft_size.
On some machines the ppc64_pft_size calculation is broken because
ppc64_pft_size is not set.

So we need to fix the second calculation, but better still we should just
calculate the size once and use it everywhere else.

f822566165 [PATCH] madvise MADV_DONTFORK/MADV_DOFORK
Currently, copy-on-write may change the physical address of a page even if the
user requested that the page is pinned in memory (either by mlock or by
get_user_pages).  This happens if the process forks meanwhile, and the parent
writes to that page.  As a result, the page is orphaned: in case of
get_user_pages, the application will never see any data hardware DMA's into
this page after the COW.  In case of mlock'd memory, the parent is not getting
the realtime/security benefits of mlock.

In particular, this affects the Infiniband modules which do DMA from and into
user pages all the time.

This patch adds madvise options to control whether memory range is inherited
across fork.  Useful e.g.  for when hardware is doing DMA from/into these
pages.  Could also be useful to an application wanting to speed up its forks
by cutting large areas out of consideration.

just panic or BUG_ON.

So make lmb_alloc() panic internally, to catch bugs at the source. The few
callers who did check the result no longer need to.

The only caller that did anything interesting with the return result was
careful_allocation(). For it we create __lmb_alloc_base() which _doesn't_ panic
automatically, a little messy, but passable.

150256d8aa [PATCH] Generic sys_rt_sigsuspend()
The TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK flag allows us to have a generic implementation of
sys_rt_sigsuspend() instead of duplicating it for each architecture.  This
provides such an implementation and makes arch/powerpc use it.

It also tidies up the ppc32 sys_sigsuspend() to use TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK.

c6b3feaf57 [PATCH] Fix sparse parse error in lppaca.h
sparse can't parse a struct definition in include/asm-powerpc/lppaca.h,
even though gcc can accept it.  The form looks like this:

        struct __attribute__((whatever)) foo { };

An equivalent that both gcc and sparse can handle is

        struct foo { } __attribute__((whatever));

This is the only definition of this type in the tree, and fixing it is
easier than fixing sparse.

[ Side note: fixing sparse wouldn't be hard, but the "attribute at the
  end" version is the canonical one, and the one that makes sense. So
  let's just fix the kernel instead. Luc Van Oostenryck already sent
  out a sparse patch to the sparse mailing list in case anybody cares.

8385a6a3ac [PATCH] powerpc: Fix kdump copy regs and dynamic allocate per-cpu crash notes
- This contains the arch specific changes for the following the
kdump generic fixes which were already accepted in the upstream.
       .   Capturing CPU registers (for the case of 'panic' and invoking
the dump using 'sysrq-trigger') from a function (stack frame) which will
be not be available during the kdump boot. Hence, might result in
invalid stack trace.
       .   Dynamically allocating per cpu ELF notes section instead of
statically for NR_CPUS.

- Fix the compiler warning in prom_init.c.

7a45fb19ce [PATCH] powerpc: oprofile cpu type names clash with other code
In 2.6.15-git6 a change was commited in the oprofile support in
the powerpc architecture.  It introduced the powerpc_oprofile_type
which contains the define G4.  This causes a name clash with the
existing wacom usb tablet driver.

      CC [M]  drivers/usb/input/wacom.o
    drivers/usb/input/wacom.c:98: error: conflicting types for `G4'
    include/asm/cputable.h:37: error: previous declaration of `G4'
      CC [M]  drivers/usb/mon/mon_text.o
    make[3]: *** [drivers/usb/input/wacom.o] Error 1
    make[2]: *** [drivers/usb/input] Error 2

The elements of an enum declared in global scope are effectivly
global identifiers themselves.  As such we need to ensure the names
are unique.  This patch updates the later oprofile support to use
unique names.

80f15dc703 powerpc: Provide a suitable AT_PLATFORM value
The glibc folks want to use AT_PLATFORM to select between possible
alternative versions of shared libraries.  This commit makes the kernel
supply an AT_PLATFORM string that indicates what class of processor
we are running on.  Processors with the same set of user-level
instructions and roughly the same instruction scheduling characteristics
are given the same AT_PLATFORM value; for example, 821, 823 and 860
are all reported as "ppc823", and 7447, 7447A, 7448, 7450, 7451, 7455
are all called "ppc7450".

The intention is that the AT_PLATFORM values match the values that
gcc accepts for the -mcpu= option.  For values which are numeric
(e.g. -mcpu=750), "ppc" has been prepended.

This also adds a PPC_FEATURE_BOOKE bit to the AT_HWCAP value and sets
it for the 440 family and the Freescale 85xx family.
