2009-03-23powerpc/mm: Fix Respect _PAGE_COHERENT on classic ppc32 SW TLB load machinesKumar Gala
Grant picked up the wrong version of "Respect _PAGE_COHERENT on classic ppc32 SW" (commit a4bd6a93c3f14691c8a29e53eb04dc734b27f0db) It was missing the code to actually deal with the fixup of _PAGE_COHERENT based on the CPU feature. Signed-off-by: Kumar Gala <galak@kernel.crashing.org>
2009-03-17powerpc/mm: Respect _PAGE_COHERENT on classic ppc32 SWKumar Gala
Since we now set _PAGE_COHERENT in the Linux PTE we shouldn't be clearing it out before we setup the SW TLB. Today all the SW TLB machines (603/e300) that we support are non-SMP, however there are some errata on some devices that cause us to set _PAGE_COHERENT via CPU_FTR_NEED_COHERENT.

2009-03-11powerpc/kconfig: Kill PPC_MULTIPLATFORMBenjamin Herrenschmidt
CONFIG_PPC_MULTIPLATFORM is a remain of the pre-powerpc days and isn't really meaningful anymore. It was basically equivalent to PPC64 || 6xx. This removes it along with the following changes: - 32-bit platforms that relied on PPC32 && PPC_MULTIPLATFORM now rely on 6xx which is what they want anyway. - A new symbol, PPC_BOOK3S, is defined that represent compliance with the "Server" variant of the architecture. This is set when either 6xx or PPC64 is set and open the door for future BOOK3E 64-bit. - 64-bit platforms that relied on PPC64 && PPC_MULTIPLATFORM now use PPC64 && PPC_BOOK3S - A separate and selectable CONFIG_PPC_OF_BOOT_TRAMPOLINE option is now used to control the use of prom_init.c Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

2009-03-11powerpc/udbg: Fix lost byte during console handover; change LFCR to CRLFAndrew Klossner
When the console is on a serial port to be driven by serial8250, a character can be lost from the end of the first line in the two-line sequence serial8250.0: ttyS0 at MMIO 0xe0004500 (irq = 42) is a 16550A console handover: boot [udbg0] -> real [ttyS0] This happens because udbg_puts or udbg_write stuff the last byte of the line into the Tx FIFO and return, whereupon the serial8250 initialization code immediately empties that FIFO. The fix: udbg_puts and udbg_write now wait for the Tx FIFO to clear before returning. This delays the system by one additional serial frame time for each line written by udbg, but the effect is not noticeable, a cumulative 17 milliseconds for 200 lines of early printk output at 115200 baud. Also, the routines in udbg_16550.c now emit CRLF instead of LFCR. Linux makes a point of emitting CRLF because, when serial output is captured to a file, LFCR sequences can confuse text editors.

2009-03-11powerpc: Make sure we copy all cpu_spec features except PMC related onesMichael Ellerman
When identify_cpu() is called a second time with a logical PVR, it only copies a subset of the cpu_spec fields so as to avoid overwriting the performance monitor fields that were initialized based on the real PVR. However some of the other, non performance monitor related fields are also not copied: * pvr_mask * pvr_value * mmu_features * machine_check The fact that pvr_mask is not copied can result in show_cpuinfo() showing the cpu as "unknown", if we override an unknown PVR with a logical one - as reported by Shaggy. So change the logic to copy all fields, and then put back the PMC related ones in the case that we're overwriting a real PVR with a logical one.

2009-02-23powerpc/pseries: Fix partition migration hang under loadBrian King
While testing partition migration with heavy CPU load using shared processors, it was observed that sometimes the migration would never complete and would appear to hang. Currently, the migration code assumes that if H_SUCCESS is returned from the H_JOIN then the migration is complete and the processor is waking up on the target system. If there was an outstanding PROD to the processor when the H_JOIN is called, however, it will return H_SUCCESS on the source system, causing the migration to hang, or in some scenarios cause the kernel to crash on the complete call waking the caller of rtas_percpu_suspend_me. Fix this by calling H_JOIN multiple times if necessary during the migration. Signed-off-by: Brian King <brking@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

2009-02-23powerpc, ftrace: use create_branch lib functionSteven Rostedt
Impact: clean up, remove duplicate code When ftrace was first ported to PowerPC, there existed a create_function_call that would create the instruction to make a call to a given address. Unfortunately, this call expected to write to the address it was given, and since it used the address to calculate the offset, it could not be faked. ftrace needed a way to create the instruction without actually writing that instruction to the text section. So ftrace had to implement its own code. Now we have create_branch in the code patching library, which does exactly what ftrace needs. This patch replaces ftrace's implementation with the library function. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>
2009-02-23powerpc, ftrace: use unsigned int for instruction manipulationSteven Rostedt
The original port of ftrace to PowerPC kept a lot of the code used by x86. Some of this code was to handle x86's 5 byte instruction. This was handled by using character arrays to manipulate the code. PowerPC has a consistent 4 byte instruction. Using unsigned ints makes the code more efficient as well as more readable. By converting to use unsigned ints to represent instructions, I was able to remove the side effects that were needed for manipulating character strings. i.e. memcpy and memcmp Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

2009-02-23powerpc64, ftrace: save toc only on modules for function graphSteven Rostedt
The TOCS used by modules are different than the one used by the core kernel code. The function graph tracer must save and restore the TOC whenever it traces a module call. But this is an added overhead to burden the majority of core kernel code being traced. Benjamin Herrenschmidt suggested in testing the entry of the call to tell if it is a core kernel function or a module. He recommended using the REGION_ID() macro to perform this test. This patch implements Benjamin's idea, and uses a different return_to_handler routine dependent on if the entry is a core kernel function or not. The module version saves the TOC, where as the core kernel version does not. Geoff Lavand tested on PS3.

2009-02-14powerpc/44x: Support for 256KB PAGE_SIZEYuri Tikhonov
This patch adds support for 256KB pages on ppc44x-based boards. For simplification of implementation with 256KB pages we still assume 2-level paging. As a side effect this leads to wasting extra memory space reserved for PTE tables: only 1/4 of pages allocated for PTEs are actually used. But this may be an acceptable trade-off to achieve the high performance we have with big PAGE_SIZEs in some applications (e.g. RAID). Also with 256KB PAGE_SIZE we increase THREAD_SIZE up to 32KB to minimize the risk of stack overflows in the cases of on-stack arrays, which size depends on the page size (e.g. multipage BIOs, NTFS, etc.). With 256KB PAGE_SIZE we need to decrease the PKMAP_ORDER at least down to 9, otherwise all high memory (2 ^ 10 * PAGE_SIZE == 256MB) we'll be occupied by PKMAP addresses leaving no place for vmalloc. We do not separate PKMAP_ORDER for 256K from 16K/64K PAGE_SIZE here; actually that value of 10 in support for 16K/64K had been selected rather intuitively. Thus now for all cases of PAGE_SIZE on ppc44x (including the default, 4KB, one) we have 512 pages for PKMAP. Because ELF standard supports only page sizes up to 64K, then you should use binutils later than 2.17.50.0.3 with '-zmax-page-size' set to 256K for building applications, which are to be run with the 256KB-page sized kernel. If using the older binutils, then you should patch them like follows: --- binutils/bfd/elf32-ppc.c.orig +++ binutils/bfd/elf32-ppc.c -#define ELF_MAXPAGESIZE 0x10000 +#define ELF_MAXPAGESIZE 0x40000 One more restriction we currently have with 256KB page sizes is inability to use shmem safely, so, for now, the 256KB is available only if you turn the CONFIG_SHMEM option off (another variant is to use BROKEN). Though, if you need shmem with 256KB pages, you can always remove the !SHMEM dependency in 'config PPC_256K_PAGES', and use the workaround available here: http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/12/19/20 Signed-off-by: Yuri Tikhonov <yur@emcraft.com> Signed-off-by: Ilya Yanok <yanok@emcraft.com> Signed-off-by: Josh Boyer <jwboyer@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

2009-02-10powerpc/pci: mmap anonymous memory when legacy_mem doesn't existBenjamin Herrenschmidt
The new legacy_mem file in sysfs is causing problems with X on machines that don't support legacy memory access. The way I initially implemented it, we would fail with -ENXIO when trying to mmap it, thus exposing to X that we do support the API but there is no legacy memory. Unfortunately, X poor error handling is causing it to fail to start when it gets this error. This implements a workaround hack that instead maps anonymous memory instead (using shmem if VM_SHARED is set, just like /dev/zero does).

To move towards having this support the following changes have been made: * PID1, PID2 only exist on e500v1 & e500v2 and should not be accessed on e500mc or e200. We use MMUCFG[NPIDS] to determine which case we are since we only touch PID1/2 in extremely early init code. * Not all IVORs exist on all the processors so introduce cpu_setup functions for each variant to setup the proper IVORs that are either unique or exist but have some variations between the processors Signed-off-by: Kumar Gala <galak@kernel.crashing.org>
