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.

2008-09-15powerpc: Make the 64-bit kernel as a position-independent executablePaul Mackerras
This implements CONFIG_RELOCATABLE for 64-bit by making the kernel as a position-independent executable (PIE) when it is set. This involves processing the dynamic relocations in the image in the early stages of booting, even if the kernel is being run at the address it is linked at, since the linker does not necessarily fill in words in the image for which there are dynamic relocations. (In fact the linker does fill in such words for 64-bit executables, though not for 32-bit executables, so in principle we could avoid calling relocate() entirely when we're running a 64-bit kernel at the linked address.) The dynamic relocations are processed by a new function relocate(addr), where the addr parameter is the virtual address where the image will be run. In fact we call it twice; once before calling prom_init, and again when starting the main kernel. This means that reloc_offset() returns 0 in prom_init (since it has been relocated to the address it is running at), which necessitated a few adjustments. This also changes __va and __pa to use an equivalent definition that is simpler. With the relocatable kernel, PAGE_OFFSET and MEMORY_START are constants (for 64-bit) whereas PHYSICAL_START is a variable (and KERNELBASE ideally should be too, but isn't yet). With this, relocatable kernels still copy themselves down to physical address 0 and run there. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
2008-09-15powerpc: Make it possible to move the interrupt handlers away from the kernelPaul Mackerras
This changes the way that the exception prologs transfer control to the handlers in 64-bit kernels with the aim of making it possible to have the prologs separate from the main body of the kernel. Now, instead of computing the address of the handler by taking the top 32 bits of the paca address (to get the 0xc0000000........ part) and ORing in something in the bottom 16 bits, we get the base address of the kernel by doing a load from the paca and add an offset. This also replaces an mfmsr and an ori to compute the MSR value for the handler with a load from the paca. That makes it unnecessary to have a separate version of EXCEPTION_PROLOG_PSERIES that forces 64-bit mode. We can no longer use a direct branches in the exception prolog code, which means that the SLB miss handlers can't branch directly to .slb_miss_realmode any more. Instead we have to compute the address and do an indirect branch. This is conditional on CONFIG_RELOCATABLE; for non-relocatable kernels we use a direct branch as before. (A later change will allow CONFIG_RELOCATABLE to be set on 64-bit powerpc.) Since the secondary CPUs on pSeries start execution in the first 0x100 bytes of real memory and then have to get to wherever the kernel is, we can't use a direct branch to get there. Instead this changes __secondary_hold_spinloop from a flag to a function pointer. When it is set to a non-NULL value, the secondary CPUs jump to the function pointed to by that value. Finally this eliminates one code difference between 32-bit and 64-bit by making __secondary_hold be the text address of the secondary CPU spinloop rather than a function descriptor for it.

2008-04-17[POWERPC] Efika: Really, don't pretend to be CHRPDavid Woodhouse
Fedora 9 works on Efika without the separate 'device-tree supplement', thanks to the kernel's own fixups. With one exception -- because 'CHRP' still appears on the 'machine:' line in /proc/cpuinfo, the installer misdetects the platform and misconfigures yaboot, putting it into a PReP boot partition instead of in the /boot filesystem where the Efika's firmware could find it. The kernel's fixups for Efika already correct one instance of 'chrp', in the 'device_type' property. This fixes it in the 'CODEGEN,description' property too, since that's what's exposed to userspace in /proc/cpuinfo.

2008-01-26[POWERPC] Efika: prune fixups and make them more carefullGrant Likely
Prune back Efika fixups to only include changes that are actually required to get a working system. Most of the drivers can accept the compatible properties, even if they don't match the what is recommented in the generic names recommended practice document. This patch also adds extra checks so that fixups are not performed blindly. Instead, the code first verifies that the device tree is faulty before making any changes. This way, if the Efika firmware is updated to fix these issues, then the fixups will no longer get applied. At this point; here is the list of fixups needed for the efika: 1. If the device_type property on the root node is 'chrp', then Linux won't boot. Change device_type to 'efika' to avoid this condition 2. Add full interrupt list to the bestcomm node. In actual fact, the bestcomm interrupts property is technically correct, it just doesn't expose the same granularity as the device driver expects. All other 5200 device trees provide a separate irq number for each bestcomm channel. Rather than hack the driver, it's simpler to fix it up 3. /builtin/sound node is missing an interrupts property 4. /builtin/ethernet node is missing a phy-handle property and the device driver doesn't know what to do without one.

2008-01-10[POWERPC] efika: add phy-handle property for fec_mpc52xxOlaf Hering

But only the phy stuff is required to get a working network. This should go into the kernel because its appearently impossible to boot the script via tftp and then load the real boot binary (yaboot or zimage).

2007-06-14[POWERPC] Donate idle CPU cycles on dedicated partitionsJake Moilanen
A Power6 can give up CPU cycles on a dedicated CPU (as opposed to a shared CPU) to other shared processors if the administrator asks for it (via the HMC). This enables that to work properly on P6. This just involves setting a bit in the CAS structure as well as the VPA. To donate cycles, a CPU has to have all SMT threads idle and have the donate bit set in the VPA. Then call H_CEDE. The reason why shared processors just aren't used is because dedicated CPUs are guaranteed an actual processor, yet the system is still able to increase the capacity of the shared CPU pool. Also rename the VPA's cpuctls_task_attrs field to a more accurate name. Signed-off-by: Jake Moilanen <moilanen@austin.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

2006-12-11[POWERPC] Support ibm,dynamic-reconfiguration-memory nodesPaul Mackerras
For PAPR partitions with large amounts of memory, the firmware has an alternative, more compact representation for the information about the memory in the partition and its NUMA associativity information. This adds the code to the kernel to parse this alternative representation. The other part of this patch is telling the firmware that we can handle the alternative representation. There is however a subtlety here, because the firmware will invoke a reboot if the memory representation we request is different from the representation that firmware is currently using. This is because firmware can't change the representation on the fly. Further, some firmware versions used on POWER5+ machines have a bug where this reboot leaves the machine with an altered value of load-base, which will prevent any kernel booting until it is reset to the normal value (0x4000). Because of this bug, we do NOT set fake_elf.rpanote.new_mem_def = 1, and thus we do not request the new representation on POWER5+ and earlier machines. We do request the new representation on POWER6, which uses the ibm,client-architecture-support call. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
2006-12-04[POWERPC] Tell firmware we can handle POWER6 compatible modePaul Mackerras

2006-12-04[POWERPC] Distinguish POWER6 partition modes and tell userspacePaul Mackerras
This adds code to look at the properties firmware puts in the device tree to determine what compatibility mode the partition is in on POWER6 machines, and set the ELF aux vector AT_HWCAP and AT_PLATFORM entries appropriately. Specifically, we look at the cpu-version property in the cpu node(s). If that contains a "logical" PVR value (of the form 0x0f00000x), we call identify_cpu again with this PVR value. A value of 0x0f000001 indicates the partition is in POWER5+ compatibility mode, and a value of 0x0f000002 indicates "POWER6 architected" mode, with various extensions disabled. We also look for various other properties: ibm,dfp, ibm,purr and ibm,spurr. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
