2008-10-31Revert "powerpc: Sync RPA note in zImage with kernel's RPA note"Paul Mackerras
This reverts commit 91a00302959545a9ae423e99732b1e46eb19e877, plus commit 0dcd440120ef12879ff34fc78d7e4abf171c79e4 ("powerpc: Revert CHRP boot wrapper to real-base = 12MB on 32-bit") which depended on it. Commit 91a00302 was causing NVRAM corruption on some pSeries machines, for as-yet unknown reasons, so this reverts it until the cause is identified. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
2008-10-31powerpc: Update remaining dma_mapping_ops to use map/unmap_pageMark Nelson
After the merge of the 32 and 64bit DMA code, dma_direct_ops lost their map/unmap_single() functions but gained map/unmap_page(). This caused a problem for Cell because Cell's dma_iommu_fixed_ops called the dma_direct_ops if the fixed linear mapping was to be used or the iommu ops if the dynamic window was to be used. So in order to fix this problem we need to update the 64bit DMA code to use map/unmap_page. First, we update the generic IOMMU code so that iommu_map_single() becomes iommu_map_page() and iommu_unmap_single() becomes iommu_unmap_page(). Then we propagate these changes up through all the callers of these two functions and in the process update all the dma_mapping_ops so that they have map/unmap_page rahter than map/unmap_single. We can do this because on 64bit there is no HIGHMEM memory so map/unmap_page ends up performing exactly the same function as map/unmap_single, just taking different arguments. This has no affect on drivers because the dma_map_single_attrs() just ends up calling the map_page() function of the appropriate dma_mapping_ops and similarly the dma_unmap_single_attrs() calls unmap_page(). This fixes an oops on Cell blades, which oops on boot without this because they call dma_direct_ops.map_single, which is NULL.

2008-10-31powerpc/pci: Fix unmapping of IO space on 64-bitBenjamin Herrenschmidt
A typo/thinko made us pass the wrong argument to __flush_hash_table_range when unplugging bridges, thus not flushing all the translations for the IO space on unplug. The third parameter to __flush_hash_table_range is `end', not `size'. This causes the hypervisor to refuse unplugging slots.

2008-10-31powerpc/pci: Properly allocate bus resources for hotplug PHBsNathan Fontenot
Resources for PHB's that are dynamically added to a system are not properly allocated in the resource tree. Not having these resources allocated causes an oops when removing the PHB when we try to release them. The diff appears a bit messy, this is mainly due to moving everything one tab to the left in the pcibios_allocate_bus_resources routine. The functionality change in this routine is only that the list_for_each_entry() loop is pulled out and moved to the necessary calling routine.

2008-10-31OF-device: Don't overwrite numa_node in device registrationJeremy Kerr
Currently, the numa_node of OF-devices will be overwritten during device_register, which simply sets the node to -1. On cell machines, this means that devices can't find their IOMMU, which is referenced through the device's numa node. Set the numa node for OF devices with no parent, and use the lower-level device_initialize and device_add functions, so that the node is preserved. We can remove the call to set_dev_node in of_device_alloc, as it will be overwritten during register. Signed-off-by: Jeremy Kerr <jk@ozlabs.org> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
2008-10-31powerpc: Fix swapcontext system for VSX + old ucontext sizeMichael Neuling
Since VSX support was added, we now have two sizes of ucontext_t; the older, smaller size without the extra VSX state, and the new larger size with the extra VSX state. A program using the sys_swapcontext system call and supplying smaller ucontext_t structures will currently get an EINVAL error if the task has used VSX (e.g. because of calling library code that uses VSX) and the old_ctx argument is non-NULL (i.e. the program is asking for its current context to be saved). Thus the program will start getting EINVAL errors on calls that previously worked. This commit changes this behaviour so that we don't send an EINVAL in this case. It will now return the smaller context but the VSX MSR bit will always be cleared to indicate that the ucontext_t doesn't include the extra VSX state, even if the task has executed VSX instructions. Both 32 and 64 bit cases are updated. [paulus@samba.org - also fix some access_ok() and get_user() calls] Thanks to Ben Herrenschmidt for noticing this problem.

2008-10-31powerpc: Work around ld bug in older binutilsPaul Mackerras
Commit 549e8152de8039506f69c677a4546e5427aa6ae7 ("powerpc: Make the 64-bit kernel as a position-independent executable") added lines to vmlinux.lds.S to add the extra sections needed to implement a relocatable kernel. However, those lines seem to trigger a bug in older versions of GNU ld (such as 2.16.1) when building a non-relocatable kernel. Since ld 2.16.1 is still a popular choice for cross-toolchains, this adds an #ifdef to vmlinux.lds.S so the added lines are only included when building a relocatable kernel.

2008-10-31powerpc/ppc64/kdump: Better flag for running relocatableMilton Miller
The __kdump_flag ABI is overly constraining for future development. As of 2.6.27, the kernel entry point has 4 constraints: Offset 0 is the starting point for the master (boot) cpu (entered with r3 pointing to the device tree structure), offset 0x60 is code for the slave cpus (entered with r3 set to their device tree physical id), offset 0x20 is used by the iseries hypervisor, and secondary cpus must be well behaved when the first 256 bytes are copied to address 0. Placing the __kdump_flag at 0x18 is bad because: - It was taking the last 8 bytes before the iseries hypervisor data. - It was 8 bytes for a boolean flag - It had no way of identifying that the flag was present - It does leave any room for the master to add any additional code before branching, which hurts debug. - It will be unnecessarily hard for 32 bit code to be common (8 bytes) Now that we have eliminated the use of __kdump_flag in favor of the standard is_kdump_kernel(), this flag only controls run without relocating the kernel to PHYSICAL_START (0), so rename it __run_at_load. Move the flag to 0x5c, 1 word before the secondary cpu entry point at 0x60. Initialize it with "run0" to say it will run at 0 unless it is set to 1. It only exists if we are relocatable.

2008-10-31powerpc: Use is_kdump_kernel()Milton Miller
linux/crash_dump.h defines is_kdump_kernel() to be used by code that needs to know if the previous kernel crashed instead of a (clean) boot or reboot. This updates the just added powerpc code to use it. This is needed for the next commit, which will remove __kdump_flag.

2008-10-31powerpc: Kexec exit should not use magic numbersMilton Miller
Commit 54622f10a6aabb8bb2bdacf3dd070046f03dc246 ("powerpc: Support for relocatable kdump kernel") added a magic flag value in a register to tell purgatory that it should be a panic kernel. This part is wrong and is reverted by this commit. The kernel gets a list of memory blocks and a entry point from user space. Its job is to copy the blocks into place and then branch to the designated entry point (after turning "off" the mmu). The user space tool inserts a trampoline, called purgatory, that runs before the user supplied code. Its job is to establish the entry environment for the new kernel or other application based on the contents of memory. The purgatory code is compiled and embedded in the tool, where it is later patched using the elf symbol table using elf symbols. Since the tool knows it is creating a purgatory that will run after a kernel crash, it should just patch purgatory (or the kernel directly) if something needs to happen.

2008-10-22powerpc: Support for relocatable kdump kernelMohan Kumar M
This adds relocatable kernel support for kdump. With this one can use the same regular kernel to capture the kdump. A signature (0xfeed1234) is passed in r6 from panic code to the next kernel through kexec_sequence and purgatory code. The signature is used to differentiate between kdump kernel and non-kdump kernels. The purgatory code compares the signature and sets the __kdump_flag in head_64.S. During the boot up, kernel code checks __kdump_flag and if it is set, the kernel will behave as relocatable kdump kernel. This kernel will boot at the address where it was loaded by kexec-tools ie. at the address reserved through crashkernel boot parameter. CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP depends on CONFIG_RELOCATABLE option to build kdump kernel as relocatable. So the same kernel can be used as production and kdump kernel. This patch incorporates the changes suggested by Paul Mackerras to avoid GOT use and to avoid two copies of the code.

2008-10-21powerpc: Find and destroy possible stale kernel added propertiesMilton Miller
64 bit powerpc requires the kexec user space tools avoid overwriting the static kernel image and translation hash table when choosing where to put memory image data because it copies the data into place using the kernels virtual memory system. Kexec userspace determines these and other areas blocked by reading properties the kernel adds, but does not filter these properties when creating the device tree for the next kernel. When the second kernel tries to add its values for these properties, the export via /proc/device-tree is hidden by the pre-existing but stale values from the flat tree. Kexec userspace reads the old property, allocates the new kernel at the old kernel's end, and gets rejected by the overlap check. Search and remove these stale properties before adding the new values. Signed-off-by: Milton Miller <miltonm@bga.com> Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

2008-10-20kdump: make elfcorehdr_addr independent of CONFIG_PROC_VMCOREVivek Goyal
o elfcorehdr_addr is used by not only the code under CONFIG_PROC_VMCORE but also by the code which is not inside CONFIG_PROC_VMCORE. For example, is_kdump_kernel() is used by powerpc code to determine if kernel is booting after a panic then use previous kernel's TCE table. So even if CONFIG_PROC_VMCORE is not set in second kernel, one should be able to correctly determine that we are booting after a panic and setup calgary iommu accordingly. o So remove the assumption that elfcorehdr_addr is under CONFIG_PROC_VMCORE. o Move definition of elfcorehdr_addr to arch dependent crash files. (Unfortunately crash dump does not have an arch independent file otherwise that would have been the best place). o kexec.c is not the right place as one can Have CRASH_DUMP enabled in second kernel without KEXEC being enabled. o I don't see sh setup code parsing the command line for elfcorehdr_addr. I am wondering how does vmcore interface work on sh. Anyway, I am atleast defining elfcoredhr_addr so that compilation is not broken on sh.

2008-10-15KVM: powerpc: Map guest userspace with TID=0 mappingsHollis Blanchard
When we use TID=N userspace mappings, we must ensure that kernel mappings have been destroyed when entering userspace. Using TID=1/TID=0 for kernel/user mappings and running userspace with PID=0 means that userspace can't access the kernel mappings, but the kernel can directly access userspace. The net is that we don't need to flush the TLB on privilege switches, but we do on guest context switches (which are far more infrequent). Guest boot time performance improvement: about 30%.

We're saving the host TLB state to memory on every exit, but never using it.

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>

2008-10-14powerpc: Fix DMA offset for non-coherent DMABenjamin Herrenschmidt
After Becky's work we can almost have different DMA offsets between on-chip devices and PCI. Almost because there's a problem with the non-coherent DMA code that basically ignores the programmed offset to use the global one for everything. This fixes 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.
