The wbox channel count of an spu is now initialized
to four for the saved context. This makes it possible
to write to the mailbox right away without waiting
for the SPE to become scheduled first.

For performance analysis, it is often interesting to know
which physical SPE a thread is currently running on, and,
more importantly, if it is running at all.
This patch adds a simple attribute to each SPU directory
with that information.
The attribute is read-only and called 'phys-id'. It contains
an ascii string with the number of the physical SPU (e.g.
"0x5"), or alternatively the string "0xffffffff" (32 bit -1)
when it is not running at all at the time that the file
is read.

The spu_base module is rather deeply intermixed with the

SPUs are registered as system devices, exposing attributes through
sysfs. Since the sysdev includes a kref, we can remove the one in
struct spu (it isn't used at the moment anyway).

This is a first version of support for the Cell BE "Reliability,
Availability and Serviceability" features.
It doesn't yet handle some of the RAS interrupts (the ones described in
iic_is/iic_irr), I'm still working on a proper way to expose these. They
are essentially a cascaded controller by themselves (sic !) though I may
just handle them locally to the iic driver. I need also to sync with
David Erb on the way he hooked in the performance monitor interrupt.
So that's all for 2.6.17 and I'll do more work on that with my rework of
the powerpc interrupt layer that I'm hacking on at the moment.

Currently the kernel blindly halts all the processors and calls the
ibm,suspend-me rtas call. If the firmware is not in the correct
state, we then re-start all the processors and return. It is much
smarter to first check the firmware state, and only if it is waiting,
call the ibm,suspend-me call.

Apple 970 xserves and IBM JS20 blades with SLOF. The firmware of these
machines returns -1 and 1 respectively when getprop is called for the
bootargs property of /chosen, causing Linux to ignore its builtin

builtin command line if getprop returns an error or a null string.

Some updates to the pmac32_defconfig to make it more useful:
- Enable LSF (large single files) since we enable LBD (large block devices)
- Enable IPSEC related options
- Enable remaining raid/dm options as modules
- Disable eth1394, I doubt any has that hardware and it has a nasty habit of
auto loading first and skewing network device numbering
- Enable dummy and tun as modules, always useful to have them around
- Enable EHCI, no wonder my usb2 disk was so slow
- Enable USB storage
- Enable ext3 acls
- Disable autofs and enable autofsv4 instead
- Enable nfs v3/v4 client and server. Dont want to be left in the dark ages
of pre v3
- Enable all crypto as modules, things like cryptsetup want some of them
I havent enabled the BCM43xx, perhaps we should now?

of_node_to_nid returns -1 if the associativity cannot be found. This

Instead of trying to make PPC64 MSI fit in a Intel-centric MSI layer, a
simple short-term solution is to hook the pci_{en/dis}able_msi() calls
and make a machdep call.
The rest of the MSI functions are superfluous for what is needed at this
time. Many of which can have machdep calls added as needed.
Ben and Michael Ellerman are looking into rewrite the MSI layer to be
more generic. However, in the meantime this works as a interim
solution.

The push_end macro in arch/powerpc/kernel/pci_32.c uses integer
division and multiplication to achieve the effect of rounding a
resource end address up and then advancing it to the end of a
power-of-2 sized region. This changes it to an equivalent computation
that only needs an integer add and OR. This is partly based on an
earlier patch by Mel Gorman.

Some POWER5+ machines can do 64k hardware pages for normal memory but
not for cache-inhibited pages. This patch lets us use 64k hardware
pages for most user processes on such machines (assuming the kernel
has been configured with CONFIG_PPC_64K_PAGES=y). User processes
start out using 64k pages and get switched to 4k pages if they use any
non-cacheable mappings.
With this, we use 64k pages for the vmalloc region and 4k pages for
the imalloc region. If anything creates a non-cacheable mapping in
the vmalloc region, the vmalloc region will get switched to 4k pages.
I don't know of any driver other than the DRM that would do this,
though, and these machines don't have AGP.
When a region gets switched from 64k pages to 4k pages, we do not have
to clear out all the 64k HPTEs from the hash table immediately. We
use the _PAGE_COMBO bit in the Linux PTE to indicate whether the page
was hashed in as a 64k page or a set of 4k pages. If hash_page is
trying to insert a 4k page for a Linux PTE and it sees that it has
already been inserted as a 64k page, it first invalidates the 64k HPTE
before inserting the 4k HPTE. The hash invalidation routines also use
the _PAGE_COMBO bit, to determine whether to look for a 64k HPTE or a
set of 4k HPTEs to remove. With those two changes, we can tolerate a
mix of 4k and 64k HPTEs in the hash table, and they will all get
removed when the address space is torn down.

This gives the ability to control whether alignment exceptions get

This adds the PowerPC part of the code to allow processes to change
their endian mode via prctl.
This also extends the alignment exception handler to be able to fix up
alignment exceptions that occur in little-endian mode, both for
"PowerPC" little-endian and true little-endian.
We always enter signal handlers in big-endian mode -- the support for
little-endian mode does not amount to the creation of a little-endian
user/kernel ABI. If the signal handler returns, the endian mode is
restored to what it was when the signal was delivered.
We have two new kernel CPU feature bits, one for PPC little-endian and
one for true little-endian. Most of the classic 32-bit processors
support PPC little-endian, and this is reflected in the CPU feature
table. There are two corresponding feature bits reported to userland
in the AT_HWCAP aux vector entry.
This is based on an earlier patch by Anton Blanchard.

This patch attempts to handle RTAS "busy" return codes in a more simple

Our MMU hash management code would not set the "C" bit (changed bit) in
the hardware PTE when updating a RO PTE into a RW PTE. That would cause
the hardware to possibly to a write back to the hash table to set it on
the first store access, which in addition to being a performance issue,
might also hit a bug when running with native hash management (non-HV)
as our code is specifically optimized for the case where no write back
happens.
Thus there is a very small therocial window were a hash PTE can become
corrupted if that HPTE has just been upgraded to read write, a store
access happens on it, and that races with another processor evicting
that same slot. Since eviction (caused by an almost full hash) is
extremely rare, the bug is very unlikely to happen fortunately.
This fixes by allowing the updating of the protection bits in the native
hash handling to also set (but not clear) the "C" bit, and, in order to
also improve performances in the general case, by always setting that
bit on newly inserted hash PTE so that writeback really never happens.
