5611fe48c5 powerpc: Add support for CTS-1000 GPIO controlled system poweroff
CTS-1000 is based on P4080. GPIO 27 is used to signal the FPGA to
switch off power, and also associates IRQ 8 with front-panel button
press (which we use to call orderly_poweroff()).

The relevant device-tree looks like this:

	gpio0: gpio@130000 {
		compatible = "fsl,qoriq-gpio";
		reg = <0x130000 0x1000>;
		interrupts = <55 2 0 0>;
		#gpio-cells = <2>;
		gpio-controller;

		/* Allows powering off the system via GPIO signal. */
		gpio-halt@27 {
			compatible = "sgy,gpio-halt";
			gpios = <&gpio0 27 0>;
			interrupts = <8 1 0 0>;
		};
	};

Because the driver cannot match on sgy,gpio-halt (because the node is never
processed through of_platform), it matches on fsl,qoriq-gpio and then
checks child nodes for the matching sgy,gpio-halt. This also ensures that
the GPIO controller is detected prior to sgy_cts1000's probe callback,
since that node wont match via of_platform until the controller is
registered.

Also, because the GPIO handler for triggering system poweroff might sleep,
the IRQ uses a workqueue to call orderly_poweroff().

As a final note, this driver may be expanded for other features specific to
the CTS-1000.

72640d8803 powerpc/pasemi: Fix crash on reboot
commit f96972f2dc "kernel/sys.c: call disable_nonboot_cpus() in
kernel_restart()"

added a call to disable_nonboot_cpus() on kernel_restart(), which tries
to shutdown all the CPUs except the first one. The issue with the PA
Semi, is that it does not support CPU hotplug.

When the call is made to __cpu_down(), it calls the notifiers
CPU_DOWN_PREPARE, and then tries to take the CPU down.

One of the notifiers to the CPU hotplug code, is the cpufreq. The
DOWN_PREPARE will call __cpufreq_remove_dev() which calls
cpufreq_driver->exit. The PA Semi exit handler unmaps regions of I/O
that is used by an interrupt that goes off constantly
(system_reset_common, but it goes off during normal system operations
too). I'm not sure exactly what this interrupt does.

Running a simple function trace, you can see it goes off quite a bit:

# tracer: function
#
#           TASK-PID    CPU#    TIMESTAMP  FUNCTION
#              | |       |          |         |

          <idle>-0     [000]  1558.861437: .pasemi_system_reset_exception <-.system_reset_exception

When the region is unmapped, the system crashes with:

6a040ce725 powerpc/eeh: Fix crash when adding a device in a slot with DDW
The DDW code uses a eeh_dev struct from the pci_dev. However, this is
not set until eeh_add_device_late is called.

Since pci_bus_add_devices is called before eeh_add_device_late, the PCI
devices are added to the bus, making drivers' probe hooks to be called.
These will call set_dma_mask, which will call the DDW code, which will
require the eeh_dev struct from pci_dev. This would result in a crash,
due to a NULL dereference.

Calling eeh_add_device_late after pci_bus_add_devices would make the
system BUG, because device files shouldn't be added to devices there
were not added to the system. So, a new function is needed to add such
files only after pci_bus_add_devices have been called.

a413f474a0 powerpc: Disable relocation on exceptions whenever PR KVM is active
For PR KVM we allow userspace to map 0xc000000000000000. Because
transitioning from userspace to the guest kernel may use the relocated
exception vectors we have to disable relocation on exceptions whenever
PR KVM is active as we cannot trust that address.

This issue does not apply to HV KVM, since changing from a guest to the
hypervisor will never use the relocated exception vectors.

Currently the hypervisor interface only allows us to toggle relocation
on exceptions on a partition wide scope, so we need to globally disable
relocation on exceptions when the first PR KVM instance is started and
only re-enable them when all PR KVM instances have been destroyed.

It's a bit heavy handed, but until the hypervisor gives us a lightweight
way to toggle relocation on exceptions on a single thread it's only real
option.

1fbe9cf259 powerpc: Build kernel with -mcmodel=medium
Finally remove the two level TOC and build with -mcmodel=medium.

Unfortunately we can't build modules with -mcmodel=medium due to
the tricks the kernel module loader plays with percpu data:

# -mcmodel=medium breaks modules because it uses 32bit offsets from
# the TOC pointer to create pointers where possible. Pointers into the
# percpu data area are created by this method.
#
# The kernel module loader relocates the percpu data section from the
# original location (starting with 0xd...) to somewhere in the base
# kernel percpu data space (starting with 0xc...). We need a full
# 64bit relocation for this to work, hence -mcmodel=large.

On older kernels we fall back to the two level TOC (-mminimal-toc)

e5e84f0a66 powerpc: Hook up doorbells on server
This patch actually hooks up doorbell interrupts on POWER8:

- Select the PPC_DOORBELL Kconfig option from PPC_PSERIES

- Add the doorbell CPU feature bit to POWER8

- We define a new pSeries_cause_ipi_mux() function that issues a
  doorbell interrupt if the recipient is another thread within the same
  core as the sender. If the recipient is in a different core it falls
  back to using XICS to deliver the IPI as before.

- During pSeries_smp_probe() at boot, we check if doorbell interrupts
  are supported. If they are we set the cause_ipi function pointer to
  the above mentioned function, otherwise we leave it as whichever XICS
  cause_ipi function was determined by xics_smp_probe().

  space interface is now complete.

  This set of changes adds support for unprivileged users to create user
  namespaces and as a user namespace root to create other namespaces.
  The tyranny of supporting suid root preventing unprivileged users from
  using cool new kernel features is broken.

  This set of changes completes the work on setns, adding support for
  the pid, user, mount namespaces.

  This set of changes includes a bunch of basic pid namespace
  cleanups/simplifications.  Of particular significance is the rework of
  the pid namespace cleanup so it no longer requires sending out
  tendrils into all kinds of unexpected cleanup paths for operation.  At
  least one case of broken error handling is fixed by this cleanup.

  The files under /proc/<pid>/ns/ have been converted from regular files
  to magic symlinks which prevents incorrect caching by the VFS,
  ensuring the files always refer to the namespace the process is
  currently using and ensuring that the ptrace_mayaccess permission
  checks are always applied.

  The files under /proc/<pid>/ns/ have been given stable inode numbers
  so it is now possible to see if different processes share the same
  namespaces.

  Through the David Miller's net tree are changes to relax many of the
  permission checks in the networking stack to allowing the user
  namespace root to usefully use the networking stack.  Similar changes
  for the mount namespace and the pid namespace are coming through my
  tree.

  Two small changes to add user namespace support were commited here adn
  in David Miller's -net tree so that I could complete the work on the
  /proc/<pid>/ns/ files in this tree.

  Work remains to make it safe to build user namespaces and 9p, afs,
  ceph, cifs, coda, gfs2, ncpfs, nfs, nfsd, ocfs2, and xfs so the
  Kconfig guard remains in place preventing that user namespaces from
  being built when any of those filesystems are enabled.

  Future design work remains to allow root users outside of the initial
  user namespace to mount more than just /proc and /sys."

6baf11906e powerpc/512x: don't compile any platform DIU code if the DIU is not enabled
If the DIU framebuffer driver is not enabled, then there's no point in
compiling any platform DIU code, because it will never be used.  Most of
the platform code was protected in the appropriate #ifdef, but not all.
This caused a break in some randconfig builds.

This is only a problem on the 512x platforms.  The P1022DS and MPC8610HPCD
platforms are already correct.

This patch reverts commit 12e36309f8 ("powerpc:

a474a51549 cpuidle: Measure idle state durations with monotonic clock
Many cpuidle drivers measure their time spent in an idle state by
reading the wallclock time before and after idling and calculating the
difference. This leads to erroneous results when the wallclock time gets
updated by another processor in the meantime, adding that clock
adjustment to the idle state's time counter.

If the clock adjustment was negative, the result is even worse due to an
erroneous cast from int to unsigned long long of the last_residency
variable. The negative 32 bit integer will zero-extend and result in a
forward time jump of roughly four billion milliseconds or 1.3 hours on
the idle state residency counter.

This patch changes all affected cpuidle drivers to either use the
monotonic clock for their measurements or make use of the generic time
measurement wrapper in cpuidle.c, which was already working correctly.
Some superfluous CLIs/STIs in the ACPI code are removed (interrupts
should always already be disabled before entering the idle function, and
not get reenabled until the generic wrapper has performed its second
measurement). It also removes the erroneous cast, making sure that
negative residency values are applied correctly even though they should
not appear anymore.

While the EEH does recovery on the specific PE that has PCI errors,
the PCI devices belonging to the PE will be removed and the PE will
be marked as invalid since we still need the information stored in

EEH devices and valid child PEs. However, the code used to check
that is wrong. The patch fixes that.

Furthermore by using task_active_pid_ns it becomes trivial
to write an unshare implementation for the the pid namespace.

So I have used task_active_pid_ns everywhere I can.

In fork since the pid has not yet been attached to the
process I use ns_of_pid, to achieve the same effect.

c22618a11d drivers/of: Constify device_node->name and ->path_component_name
Neither of these should ever be changed once set. Make them const and
fix up the users that try to modify it in-place. In one case
kmalloc+memcpy is replaced with kstrdup() to avoid modifying the string.

Build tested with defconfigs on ARM, PowerPC, Sparc, MIPS, x86 among
others.

cedddd812a powerpc: Disable relocation on exceptions when kexecing
Since we don't know if they new kernel we are kexecing into has been
built to support relocation on exceptions, we disable them before we
kexec.

We do NOT disable them if we are execing a kdump kernel, because we
want to change as little state as possible and it is likely that we are
execing ourselves and will be able to handle them anyway.

fc8effa4e4 powerpc: Enable relocation on during exceptions at boot
We currently do this synchronously at boot from setup_arch. On a large
system this could hypothetically take a little while to complete, so
currently we will give up if we are asked to wait for more than a second
in total.

If we actually start hitting that timeout in practice we can always move
this code into a kernel thread to take care of it in the background.

798042da4e powerpc: Add wrappers to enable/disable relocation on exceptions
These wrappers hide the parameters that have to be passed to H_SET_MODE
to enable/disable relocation on during exceptions.

As noted in the comments, since these have partition wide scope, they
may take some time to complete and must be periodically retried until
H_SUCCESS is returned.
