2006-10-25[POWERPC] spufs: Add isolated-mode SPE recycling supportJeremy Kerr
When in isolated mode, SPEs have access to an area of persistent storage, which is per-SPE. In order for isolated-mode apps to communicate arbitrary data through this storage, we need to ensure that isolated physical SPEs can be reused for subsequent applications. Add a file ("recycle") in a spethread dir to enable isolated-mode recycling. By writing to this file, the kernel will reload the isolated-mode loader kernel, allowing a new app to be run on the same physical SPE. This requires the spu_acquire_exclusive function to enforce exclusive access to the SPE while the loader is initialised.

2006-10-25[POWERPC] spufs: allow isolated mode apps by starting the SPE loaderarnd@arndb.de
This patch adds general support for isolated mode SPE apps. Isolated apps are started indirectly, by a dedicated loader "kernel". This patch starts the loader when spe_create is invoked with the ISOLATE flag. We do this at spe_create time to allow libspe to pass the isolated app in before calling spe_run. The loader is read from the device tree, at the location "/spu-isolation/loader". If the loader is not present, an attempt to start an isolated SPE binary will fail with -ENODEV. Update: loader needs to be correctly aligned - copy to a kmalloced buf. Update: remove workaround for systemsim/spurom 'L-bit' bug, which has been fixed. Update: don't write to runcntl on spu_run_init: SPU is already running. Update: do spu_setup_isolated earlier Tested on systemsim.

2006-10-25[POWERPC] spufs: add support for nonschedulable contextsMark Nutter
This adds two new flags to spu_create: SPU_CREATE_NONSCHED: create a context that is never moved away from an SPE once it has started running. This flag can only be used by tasks with the CAP_SYS_NICE capability. SPU_CREATE_ISOLATED: create a nonschedulable context that enters isolation mode upon first run.

2006-10-25[POWERPC] spufs: wrap mfc sdr accessMasato Noguchi
SPRN_SDR1 and the SPE's MFC SDR are hypervisor resources and are not accessible from a logical partition. This change adds an access wrapper. When running on bare H/W, the spufs needs to only set the SPE's MFC SDR to the value of the PPE's SPRN_SDR1 once at SPE initialization, so this change renames mfc_sdr_set() to mfc_sdr_setup() and moves the access of SPRN_SDR1 into the mmio wrapper. It also removes the now unneeded member mfc_sdr_RW from struct spu_priv1_collapsed.

2006-10-24[POWERPC] Move iSeries initrd logic into device treeMichael Ellerman
Remove the iSeries initrd logic, instead just store the initrd location and size in the device tree so generic code can do the rest for us. The iSeries code had a "feature" which the generic code lacks, ie. if the compressed initrd is bigger than the configured ram disk size, we make the ram disk size bigger. That's bogus, as the compressed size of the initrd tells us nothing about how big the ram disk needs to be. If the ram disk isn't big enough you just need to make CONFIG_BLK_DEV_RAM_SIZE larger.

2006-10-24[POWERPC] Fix up the OF functions to only do PCI stuff if PCI is actually ↵Andy Fleming
configured The original problem that inspired this patch was solved quite some time ago (Turning off PCI didn't work), but this patch neatens things up a little (I think), by putting all the PCI stuff inside a single CONFIG_PCI block. It also removes the OF PCI bus matching entries if CONFIG_PCI is off. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

2006-10-23[POWERPC] Add flatdevtree sourceMark A. Greer
Add the latest version of the flatdevtree code and corresponding glue. A phandle table now tracks values returned by ft_find_device(). The value returned by ft_find_device() is a phandle which is really an index into the phandle table. The phandle table contains the address of the corresponding node.

2006-10-18[POWERPC] Make sure interrupt enable gets restored properlyPaul Mackerras
The lazy IRQ disable patch missed a couple of places where the interrupt enable flags need to be restored correctly. First, we weren't restoring the paca->hard_enabled flag on interrupt exit. Instead of saving it on entry, we compute it from the MSR_EE bit in the MSR we are restoring at exit. Secondly, the MMU hash miss code was clearing both paca->soft_enabled and paca->hard_enabled but not restoring them in the case where hash_page was able to resolve the miss from the Linux page tables.

2006-10-16[POWERPC] Lazy interrupt disabling for 64-bit machinesPaul Mackerras
This implements a lazy strategy for disabling interrupts. This means that local_irq_disable() et al. just clear the 'interrupts are enabled' flag in the paca. If an interrupt comes along, the interrupt entry code notices that interrupts are supposed to be disabled, and clears the EE bit in SRR1, clears the 'interrupts are hard-enabled' flag in the paca, and returns. This means that interrupts only actually get disabled in the processor when an interrupt comes along. When interrupts are enabled by local_irq_enable() et al., the code sets the interrupts-enabled flag in the paca, and then checks whether interrupts got hard-disabled. If so, it also sets the EE bit in the MSR to hard-enable the interrupts. This has the potential to improve performance, and also makes it easier to make a kernel that can boot on iSeries and on other 64-bit machines, since this lazy-disable strategy is very similar to the soft-disable strategy that iSeries already uses. This version renames paca->proc_enabled to paca->soft_enabled, and changes a couple of soft-disables in the kexec code to hard-disables, which should fix the crash that Michael Ellerman saw. This doesn't yet use a reserved CR field for the soft_enabled and hard_enabled flags. This applies on top of Stephen Rothwell's patches to make it possible to build a combined iSeries/other kernel.

2006-10-16[POWERPC] Never panic when taking altivec exceptions from userspaceAnton Blanchard
At the moment we rely on a cpu feature bit or a firmware property to detect altivec. If we dont have either of these and the cpu does in fact support altivec we can cause a panic from userspace.
