Fixes a couple of warnings like this one: WARNING: arch/powerpc/kvm/kvm-440.o(.text+0x1e8c): Section mismatch in reference from the function kvmppc_44x_exit() to the function .exit.text:kvmppc_booke_exit() The function kvmppc_44x_exit() references a function in an exit section. Often the function kvmppc_booke_exit() has valid usage outside the exit section and the fix is to remove the __exit annotation of kvmppc_booke_exit.

2009-09-09PCI/powerpc: support PCIe fundamental resetMike Mason
By default, the EEH framework on powerpc does what's known as a "hot reset" during recovery of a PCI Express device. We've found a case where the device needs a "fundamental reset" to recover properly. The current PCI error recovery and EEH frameworks do not support this distinction. The attached patch makes changes to EEH to utilize the new bit field.

2009-09-02powerpc: Fix some late PowerMac G5 with PCIe ATI graphicsBenjamin Herrenschmidt
A misconfiguration by the firmware of the U4 PCIe bridge on PowerMac G5 with the U4 bridge (latest generations, may also affect the iMac G5 "iSight") is causing us to re-assign the PCI BARs of the video card, which can get it out of sync with the firmware, thus breaking offb. This works around it by fixing up the bridge configuration properly at boot time. It also fixes a bug where the firmware provides us with an incorrect set of accessible regions in the device-tree.

2009-09-02powerpc/pseries: Fix to handle slb resize across migrationBrian King
The SLB can change sizes across a live migration, which was not being handled, resulting in possible machine crashes during migration if migrating to a machine which has a smaller max SLB size than the source machine. Fix this by first reducing the SLB size to the minimum possible value, which is 32, prior to migration. Then during the device tree update which occurs after migration, we make the call to ensure the SLB gets updated. Also add the slb_size to the lparcfg output so that the migration tools can check to make sure the kernel has this capability before allowing migration in scenarios where the SLB size will change.

2009-08-28powerpc/pci: move pci_64.c device tree scanning code into pci-common.cGrant Likely
The PCI device tree scanning code in pci_64.c is some useful functionality. It allows PCI devices to be described in the device tree instead of being probed for, which in turn allows pci devices to use all of the device tree facilities to describe complex PCI bus architectures like GPIO and IRQ routing (perhaps not a common situation for desktop or server systems, but useful for embedded systems with on-board PCI devices). This patch moves the device tree scanning into pci-common.c so it is available for 32-bit powerpc machines too.

2009-08-27powerpc/pseries: Reduce the polling interval in __cpu_up()Gautham R Shenoy
Time time taken for a single cpu online operation on a pseries machine is as follows: Dedicated LPAR (POWER6): ~220ms. Shared LPAR (POWER5) : ~240ms. Of this time, approximately 200ms is taken up by __cpu_up(). This is because we poll every 200ms to check if the new cpu has notified it's presence through the cpu_callin_map. We repeat this operation until the new cpu sets the value in cpu_callin_map or 5 seconds elapse, whichever comes earlier. However, using completion_structs instead of polling loops, the time taken by the new processor to indicate it's presence has found to be less than 1ms on pseries. This method however may not work on all powerpc platforms due to the time-base synchronization code. Keeping this in mind, we could reduce msleep polling interval from 200ms to 1ms while retaining the 5 second timeout. With this, the time taken for a cpu online operation changes as follows: Dedicated LPAR (POWER6): 20-25ms. Shared LPAR (POWER5) : 60-80ms. In both these cases, it was found that the code polls through the loop only once indicating that 1ms is a reasonable value, atleast on pseries. The code needs testing on other powerpc platforms.

2009-08-27powerpc: Fix __flush_icache_range on 44xJosh Boyer
The ptrace POKETEXT interface allows a process to modify the text pages of a child process being ptraced, usually to insert breakpoints via trap instructions. The kernel eventually calls copy_to_user_page, which in turn calls __flush_icache_range to invalidate the icache lines for the child process. However, this function does not work on 44x due to the icache being virtually indexed. This was noticed by a breakpoint being triggered after it had been cleared by ltrace on a 440EPx board. The convenient solution is to do a flash invalidate of the icache in the __flush_icache_range function.

2009-08-27powerpc/mm: Cleanup handling of execute permissionBenjamin Herrenschmidt
This is an attempt at cleaning up a bit the way we handle execute permission on powerpc. _PAGE_HWEXEC is gone, _PAGE_EXEC is now only defined by CPUs that can do something with it, and the myriad of #ifdef's in the I$/D$ coherency code is reduced to 2 cases that hopefully should cover everything. The logic on BookE is a little bit different than what it was though not by much. Since now, _PAGE_EXEC will be set by the generic code for executable pages, we need to filter out if they are unclean and recover it. However, I don't expect the code to be more bloated than it already was in that area due to that change. I could boast that this brings proper enforcing of per-page execute permissions to all BookE and 40x but in fact, we've had that now for some time as a side effect of my previous rework in that area (and I didn't even know it :-) We would only enable execute permission if the page was cache clean and we would only cache clean it if we took and exec fault. Since we now enforce that the later only work if VM_EXEC is part of the VMA flags, we de-fact already enforce per-page execute permissions...
