2008-06-26powerpc/85xx: add DOZE/NAP support for e500 coreKumar Gala
The e500 core enter DOZE/NAP power-saving modes when the core go to cpu_idle routine. The power management default running mode is DOZE, If the user echo 1 > /proc/sys/kernel/powersave-nap the system will change to NAP running mode.

2006-04-18powerpc: Use correct sequence for putting CPU into nap modePaul Mackerras
We weren't using the recommended sequence for putting the CPU into nap mode. When I changed the idle loop, for some reason 7447A cpus started hanging when we put them into nap mode. Changing to the recommended sequence fixes that. The complexity here is that the recommended sequence is a loop that keeps putting the cpu back into nap mode. Clearly we need some way to break out of the loop when an interrupt (external interrupt, decrementer, performance monitor) occurs. Here we use a bit in the thread_info struct to indicate that we need this, and the exception entry code notices this and arranges for the exception to return to the value in the link register, thus breaking out of the loop. We use a new `local_flags' field in the thread_info which we can alter without needing to use an atomic update sequence. The PPC970 has the same recommended sequence, so we do the same thing there too. This also fixes a bug in the kernel stack overflow handling code on 32-bit, since it was causing a value that we needed in a register to get trashed. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
2006-03-28powerpc: Fix goof in 6xx and POWER4 idle power-save functionsPaul Mackerras
This fixes a mistake I made when editing these functions - when I took out the interrupt disabling code (because interrupts are now disabled by the caller) I left the register that is used for the MSR value to be used during doze/nap uninitialized. This fixes it. Also updated some of the comments in idle_power4.S and removed some code that was copied over from idle_6xx.S but is no longer relevant (we don't ever clear the CPU_FTR_CAN_NAP bit at runtime for POWER4).

2006-03-27powerpc: Unify the 32 and 64 bit idle loopsPaul Mackerras
This unifies the 32-bit (ARCH=ppc and ARCH=powerpc) and 64-bit idle loops. It brings over the concept of having a ppc_md.power_save function from 32-bit to ARCH=powerpc, which lets us get rid of native_idle(). With this we will also be able to simplify the idle handling for pSeries and cell. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
2005-10-10powerpc: Use reg.h instead of processor.h when we just want reg namesPaul Mackerras
Now that the register names and bit definitions are all in reg.h, use that instead of processor.h in assembly code in a few places. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
2005-09-26powerpc: Merge enough to start building in arch/powerpc.Paul Mackerras
This creates the directory structure under arch/powerpc and a bunch of Kconfig files. It does a first-cut merge of arch/powerpc/mm, arch/powerpc/lib and arch/powerpc/platforms/powermac. This is enough to build a 32-bit powermac kernel with ARCH=powerpc. For now we are getting some unmerged files from arch/ppc/kernel and arch/ppc/syslib, or arch/ppc64/kernel. This makes some minor changes to files in those directories and files outside arch/powerpc. The boot directory is still not merged. That's going to be interesting.
