2007-06-19[POWERPC] rheap - eliminates internal fragments caused by alignmentLi Yang
The patch adds fragments caused by rh_alloc_align() back to free list, instead of allocating the whole chunk of memory. This will greatly improve memory utilization managed by rheap. It solves MURAM not enough problem with 3 UCCs enabled on MPC8323.

2007-05-17[POWERPC] Fix alignment problem in rh_alloc_align() with exact-sized blocksTimur Tabi
When an rheap is created, the caller can specify the alignment to use. In rh_alloc_align(), if a free block is found that is the exact size needed (including extra space for alignment), that configured alignment value is not used to align the pointer. Instead, the default alignment is used. If the default alignment is smaller than the configured alignment, then the returned value will not be aligned correctly.

2007-05-09[POWERPC] Change rheap functions to use ulongs instead of pointersTimur Tabi
The rheap allocation functions return a pointer, but the actual value is based on how the heap was initialized, and so it can be anything, e.g. an offset into a buffer. A ulong is a better representation of the value returned by the allocation functions. This patch changes all of the relevant rheap functions to use a unsigned long integers instead of a pointer. In case of an error, the value returned is a negative error code that has been cast to an unsigned long. The caller can use the IS_ERR_VALUE() macro to check for this. All code which calls the rheap functions is updated accordingly. Macros IS_MURAM_ERR() and IS_DPERR(), have been deleted in favor of IS_ERR_VALUE(). Also added error checking to rh_attach_region().

2007-05-08[POWERPC] Remove use of 4level-fixup.h for ppc32David Gibson
For 32-bit systems, powerpc still relies on the 4level-fixup.h hack, to pretend that the generic pagetable handling stuff is 3-levels rather than 4. This patch removes this, instead using the newer pgtable-nopmd.h to handle the elision of both the pud and pmd pagetable levels (ppc32 pagetables are actually 2 levels). This removes a little extraneous code, and makes it more easily compared to the 64-bit pagetable code.

2007-02-07[POWERPC] Fix array indexing error in rheap grow()Timur Tabi
The grow() function in the rheap library allocates a larger array of blocks, copies the contents of the old blocks array to the newly allocated array and fixes the list_head pointers after the copy. At the end, the new blocks must be enqueued to the empty_list of the rh_info_t structure. This patch fixes a bug where the code was indexing past the end of the array when enqueueing blocks. The UCC ethernet driver, which uses the rheap allocator, experiences kernel panics because of this bug.

2006-01-13[PATCH] powerpc: Remove lppaca structure from the PACADavid Gibson
At present the lppaca - the structure shared with the iSeries hypervisor and phyp - is contained within the PACA, our own low-level per-cpu structure. This doesn't have to be so, the patch below removes it, making a separate array of lppaca structures. This saves approximately 500*NR_CPUS bytes of image size and kernel memory, because we don't need aligning gap between the Linux and hypervisor portions of every PACA. On the other hand it means an extra level of dereference in many accesses to the lppaca. The patch also gets rid of several places where we assign the paca address to a local variable for no particular reason.

2005-11-06[PATCH] ppc64: support 64k pagesBenjamin Herrenschmidt
Adds a new CONFIG_PPC_64K_PAGES which, when enabled, changes the kernel base page size to 64K. The resulting kernel still boots on any hardware. On current machines with 4K pages support only, the kernel will maintain 16 "subpages" for each 64K page transparently. Note that while real 64K capable HW has been tested, the current patch will not enable it yet as such hardware is not released yet, and I'm still verifying with the firmware architects the proper to get the information from the newer hypervisors.

2005-11-01[PATCH] powerpc: Merge bitops.hDavid Gibson
Here's a revised version. This re-introduces the set_bits() function from ppc64, which I removed because I thought it was unused (it exists on no other arch). In fact it is used in the powermac interrupt code (but not on pSeries). - We use LARXL/STCXL macros to generate the right (32 or 64 bit) instructions, similar to LDL/STL from ppc_asm.h, used in fpu.S - ppc32 previously used a full "sync" barrier at the end of test_and_*_bit(), whereas ppc64 used an "isync". The merged version uses "isync", since I believe that's sufficient. - The ppc64 versions of then minix_*() bitmap functions have changed semantics. Previously on ppc64, these functions were big-endian (that is bit 0 was the LSB in the first 64-bit, big-endian word). On ppc32 (and x86, for that matter, they were little-endian. As far as I can tell, the big-endian usage was simply wrong - I guess no-one ever tried to use minixfs on ppc64. - On ppc32 find_next_bit() and find_next_zero_bit() are no longer inline (they were already out-of-line on ppc64). - For ppc64, sched_find_first_bit() has moved from mmu_context.h to the merged bitops. What it was doing in mmu_context.h in the first place, I have no idea. - The fls() function is now implemented using the cntlzw instruction on ppc64, instead of generic_fls(), as it already was on ppc32. - For ARCH=ppc, this patch requires adding arch/powerpc/lib to the arch/ppc/Makefile. This in turn requires some changes to arch/powerpc/lib/Makefile which didn't correctly handle ARCH=ppc. Built and running on G5.

2005-10-28powerpc: Merge xmonPaul Mackerras
The merged version follows the ppc64 version pretty closely mostly, and in fact ARCH=ppc64 now uses the arch/powerpc/xmon version. The main difference for ppc64 is that the 'p' command to call show_state (which was always pretty dodgy) has been replaced by the ppc32 'p' command, which calls a given procedure (so in fact the old 'p' command behaviour can be achieved with 'p $show_state').
