2008-10-15powerpc: Fix 32-bit SMP boot on CHRPBenjamin Herrenschmidt
prom_init was changed to take a new argument, the address where the kernel is loaded, which is now used to copy the SMP spin loop down before use. However, only head_64.S was adapted to pass this new value, not head_32.S, thus breaking SMP boot on 32-bit SMP CHRP machines. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>
2008-10-15powerpc: Fix link errors on 32-bit machines using legacy DMABenjamin Herrenschmidt
The new merged DMA code will try to access isa_bridge_pcidev when trying to DMA to/from legacy devices. This is however only defined on 64-bit. Fixes this for now by adding the variable, even if it stays NULL. In the long run, we'll make isa-bridge.c common to 32 and 64-bit. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>
2008-10-15powerpc/pci: Improve detection of unassigned bridge resourcesBenjamin Herrenschmidt
When the powerpc PCI layer is not configured to re-assign everything, it currently fails to detect that a PCI to PCI bridge has been left unassigned by the firmware and tries to allocate resource for the default window values in the bridge (0...X) (with the notable exception of a hack we have in there that detects some Apple firmware unassigned bridge resources). This results in resource allocation failures, which are generally fixed up later on but it causes scary warnings in the logs and we have seen the fixup code fall over in some circumstances (a different issue to fix as well). This code improves that by providing a more complete & useful function to intuit that a bridge was left unassigned by the firmware, and thus force a full re-allocation by the PCI code without trying to allocate the existing useless resources first. The algorithm we use basically considers unassigned a window that starts at 0 (PCI address) if the corresponding address space enable bit is not set. In addition, for memory space, it considers such a resource unassigned also if the host bridge isn't configured to forward cycles to address 0 (ie, the resource basically overlaps main memory). This fixes a range of problems with things like Bare-Metal support on pSeries machines, or attempt to use partial firmware PCI setup. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

2008-10-13powerpc: fix fsl_upm nand driver modular buildAnton Vorontsov
The fsl_upm nand driver fails to build because fsl_lbc_lock isn't exported, the lock is needed by the inlined fsl_upm_run_pattern() function: ERROR: "fsl_lbc_lock" [drivers/mtd/nand/fsl_upm.ko] undefined! Dave Jones purposed to export the lock, but it is better to just uninline the fsl_upm_run_pattern(). When uninlined we also no longer need the exported fsl_lbc_regs, and both fsl_lbc_lock and fsl_lbc_regs could be marked static.

2008-10-13powerpc: reserve two DMA channels for audio in MPC8610 HPCD device treeTimur Tabi
The Freescale Elo DMA driver binds to all DMA channels in the device tree that are compatible with "fsl,eloplus-dma-channel". This conflicts with the sound drivers for the MPC8610 HPCD. On this board, the SSI uses two DMA channels and therefore those channels are not available for general purpose use. We change the compatible properties for these channels "fsl,ssi-dma-channel". This works because the sound drivers don't actually check the compatible property when it grabs channels.

2008-10-13powerpc/83xx: don't probe broken PCI on mpc837x_mds boardsAnton Vorontsov
In the standalone setup the board's CPLD disables the PCI internal arbiter, thus any access to the PCI bus will hang the board. The common way to disable particular devices in the device tree is to put the "status" property with any value other than "ok" or "okay" into the device node we want to disable. So, when there is no PCI arbiter on the bus the u-boot adds status = "broken (no arbiter)" property into the PCI controller's node, and so marks the PCI controller as unavailable.

EOI normally has the side effect of returning the cpu to the base priority to recieve the next interrupt. This is actually controlled by the top byte of the xirr register. When we are exiting the kernel in kexec we must eoi the ipi for the next kernel because we never return from the handler, but we want to leave interrupt delivery blocked until the next kernel takes action.

Currently the bits are set in smp.c and decoded in xics.c, with the data structure in a header file. Consolidate the code in xics.c similar to mpic and other interrupt controllers. Also, while making the the array static, the message word doesn't need to be volatile as set_bit and test_clear_bit take care of it for us, and put it under ifdef smp.

2008-10-13powerpc/xics: Update default_server during migrate_irqs_awayMilton Miller
Currently, every time we determine which irq server to use, we check if default_server, which is the id of the bootcpu, is still online. But default_server is a hardware cpu, not the logical cpu id needed to index cpu_online_map. Since the default server can only go offline during a cpu hotplug event, explicitly check the default server and choose the new one when we move irqs away from the cpu being offlined. This has the added benefit of only needing the boot_cpuid to be updated and not relying on the cpu being marked offline during migrate_irqs_away. Also, since xics_update_irq_servers only reads device tree information, we can call it before xics_init_host in xics_init_IRQ and then default_server will always be valid when we can reach get_irq_server via the host ops.

2008-10-13powerpc/xics: EOI unmapped irqs after disabling themMilton Miller
When reciving an irq vector that does not have a linux mapping, the kernel prints a message and calls RTAS to disable the irq source. Previously the kernel did not EOI the interrupt, causing the source to think it is still being processed by software. While this does add an additional layer of protection against interrupt storms had RTAS failed to disable the source, it also prevents the interrupt from working when a driver later enables it. (We could alternatively send an EOI on startup, but that strategy would likely fail on an emulated xics.) All interrupts should be disabled when the kernel starts, but this can be observed if a driver does not shutdown an interrupt in its reboot hook before starting a new kernel with kexec. Michael reports this can be reproduced trivially by banging the keyboard while kexec'ing on a P5 LPAR: even though the hvc_console driver request's the console irq later in boot, the console is non-functional because we're receiving no console interrupts.

2008-10-10powerpc: Reserve in bootmem lmb reserved regions that cross NUMA nodesJon Tollefson
If there are multiple reserved memory blocks via lmb_reserve() that are contiguous addresses and on different NUMA nodes we are losing track of which address ranges to reserve in bootmem on which node. I discovered this when I recently got to try 16GB huge pages on a system with more then 2 nodes. When scanning the device tree in early boot we call lmb_reserve() with the addresses of the 16G pages that we find so that the memory doesn't get used for something else. For example the addresses for the pages could be 4000000000, 4400000000, 4800000000, 4C00000000, etc - 8 pages, one on each of eight nodes. In the lmb after all the pages have been reserved it will look something like the following: lmb_dump_all: memory.cnt = 0x2 memory.size = 0x3e80000000 memory.region[0x0].base = 0x0 .size = 0x1e80000000 memory.region[0x1].base = 0x4000000000 .size = 0x2000000000 reserved.cnt = 0x5 reserved.size = 0x3e80000000 reserved.region[0x0].base = 0x0 .size = 0x7b5000 reserved.region[0x1].base = 0x2a00000 .size = 0x78c000 reserved.region[0x2].base = 0x328c000 .size = 0x43000 reserved.region[0x3].base = 0xf4e8000 .size = 0xb18000 reserved.region[0x4].base = 0x4000000000 .size = 0x2000000000 The reserved.region[0x4] contains the 16G pages. In arch/powerpc/mm/num.c: do_init_bootmem() we loop through each of the node numbers looking for the reserved regions that belong to the particular node. It is not able to identify region 0x4 as being a part of each of the 8 nodes. It is assuming that a reserved region is only on a single node. This patch takes out the reserved region loop from inside the loop that goes over each node. It looks up the active region containing the start of the reserved region. If it extends past that active region then it adjusts the size and gets the next active region containing it.

2008-10-10powerpc: Sync RPA note in zImage with kernel's RPA notePaul Mackerras
Commit 9b09c6d909dfd8de96b99b9b9c808b94b0a71614 ("powerpc: Change the default link address for pSeries zImage kernels") changed the real-base value in the CHRP note added by the addnote program from 12MB to 32MB to give more space for Open Firmware to load the zImage. (The real-base value says where we want OF to position itself in memory.) However, this change was ineffective on most pSeries machines, because the RPA note added by addnote has the "ignore me" flag set to 1. This was intended to tell OF to ignore just the RPA note, but has the side effect of also making OF ignore the CHRP note (at least on most pSeries machines). To solve this we have to set the "ignore me" flag to 0 in the RPA note. (We can't just omit the RPA note because that is equivalent to having an RPA note with default values, and the default values are not what we want.) However, then we have to make sure the values in the zImage's RPA note match up with the values that the kernel supplies later in prom_init.c with either the ibm,client-architecture-support call or the process-elf-header call in prom_send_capabilities(). So this sets the "ignore me" flag in the RPA note in addnote to 0, and adjusts the RPA note values in addnote.c and in prom_init.c to be consistent with each other and with the values in ibm_architecture_vec. However, since the wrapper is independent of the kernel, this doesn't ensure that the notes will stay consistent. To ensure that, this adds code to addnote.c so that it can extract the kernel's RPA note from the kernel binary and put that in the zImage. To that end, we put the kernel's fake ELF header (which contains the kernel's RPA note) into its own section, and arrange for wrapper to pull out that section with objcopy and pass it to addnote, which then extracts the RPA note from it and transfers it to the zImage.

(In the case of error, the syscall exit code returns a positive errno in r3 and sets the CR0[SO] bit.) This patch fixes that by negating r3 if CR0[SO] is set after the syscall.

2008-10-10powerpc/cell/oprofile: Fix test on overlay_tbl_offset in vma_mapRoel Kluin
Offset is unsigned and when an address isn't found in the vma map vma_map_lookup() returns the vma physical address + 0x10000000. vma_map_lookup used to return 0xffffffff on a failed lookup, but a change was made to return the vma physical address + 0x10000000 There are two callers of vam_map_lookup: one of them correctly deals with this new return value, but the other (below) did not.
