Introduce architecture dependent kretprobe blacklists to prohibit users
from inserting return probes on the function in which kprobes can be
inserted but kretprobes can not.
This patch also removes "__kprobes" mark from "__switch_to" on x86_64 and
registers "__switch_to" to the blacklist on x86-64, because that mark is to
prohibit user from inserting only kretprobe.

Now, arch dependent code around CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTREMOVE is a mess.
This patch cleans up them. This is against 2.6.23-rc6-mm1.
- fix compile failure on ia64/ CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG && !CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTREMOVE case.
- For !CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTREMOVE, add generic no-op remove_memory(),
which returns -EINVAL.
- removed remove_pages() only used in powerpc.
- removed no-op remove_memory() in i386, sh, sparc64, x86_64.
- only powerpc returns -ENOSYS at memory hot remove(no-op). changes it
to return -EINVAL.
Note:
Currently, only ia64 supports CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTREMOVE. I welcome other
archs if there are requirements and testers.

Enable virtual memmap support for SPARSEMEM on PPC64 systems. Slice a 16th

Now that all users of dcr_read()/dcr_write() add the dcr_host_t.base, we
can save them the trouble and do it in dcr_read()/dcr_write().
As some background to why we just went through all this jiggery-pokery,
benh sayeth:
Initially the goal of the dcr_read/dcr_write routines was to operate like
mfdcr/mtdcr which take absolute DCR numbers. The reason is that on 4xx
hardware, indirect DCR access is a pain (goes through a table of
instructions) and it's useful to have the compiler resolve an absolute DCR
inline.
We decided that wasn't worth the API bastardisation since most places
where absolute DCR values are used are low level 4xx-only code which may
as well continue using mfdcr/mtdcr, while the new API is designed for
device "instances" that can exist on 4xx and Axon type platforms and may
be located at variable DCR offsets.

This changes the uevent buffer functions to use a struct instead of a
long list of parameters. It does no longer require the caller to do the
proper buffer termination and size accounting, which is currently wrong
in some places. It fixes a known bug where parts of the uevent
environment are overwritten because of wrong index calculations.

Currently find_legacy_serial_ports() can find no serial ports on the
OPB with flattened device tree. Thus no legacy boot console can be
initialized. Just the early udbg console works, which is initialized
with udbg_init_44x_as1 on the UART's physical address specified in
kernel config. This happens because we look for ns16750 serial
devices only and expect opb node to have a device type property. This
patch makes it look for ns16550-compatible devices and use
of_device_is_compatible() for opb in case device type is not
specified.

This makes the kernel use 1TB segments for all kernel mappings and for
user addresses of 1TB and above, on machines which support them
(currently POWER5+, POWER6 and PA6T).
We detect that the machine supports 1TB segments by looking at the
ibm,processor-segment-sizes property in the device tree.
We don't currently use 1TB segments for user addresses < 1T, since
that would effectively prevent 32-bit processes from using huge pages
unless we also had a way to revert to using 256MB segments. That
would be possible but would involve extra complications (such as
keeping track of which segment size was used when HPTEs were inserted)
and is not addressed here.
Parts of this patch were originally written by Ben Herrenschmidt.

asm-powerpc/mpc85xx.h was really a hold over from arch/ppc. Now that
more decoupling has occurred we can remove <asm/mpc85xx.h> and some of

for 85xx platforms. This is a stop gap until drivers stop using

In testing the new clocksource and clockevent code on a PPC601
processor, I discovered that the clockevent multiplier value for the
decrementer clockevent was overflowing. Because the RTCL register in
the 601 effectively counts at 1GHz (it doesn't actually, but it
increases by 128 every 128ns), and the shift value was 32, that meant
the multiplier value had to be 2^32, which won't fit in an unsigned
long on 32-bit. The same problem would arise on any platform where
the timebase frequency was 1GHz or more (not that we actually have any
such machines today).
This fixes it by reducing the shift value to 16. Doing the
calculations with a resolution of 2^-16 nanoseconds (15 femtoseconds)
should be quite adequate. :)

On old powermacs, we sometimes set the decrementer to 1 in order to
trigger a decrementer interrupt, which we use to handle an interrupt
that was pending at the time when it was re-enabled. This was causing
the decrementer clock event device to call the event function for the
next event early, which was causing problems when high-res timers were
not enabled.
This fixes the problem by recording the timebase value at which the
next event should occur, and checking the current timebase against the
recorded value in timer_interrupt. If it isn't time for the next
event, it just reprograms the decrementer and returns.
This also subtracts 1 from the value stored into the decrementer,
which is appropriate because the decrementer interrupts on the
transition from 0 to -1, not when the decrementer reaches 0.

Some IBM machines supply a "logical" PVR (processor version register)
value in the device tree in the cpu nodes rather than the real PVR.
This is used for instance to indicate that the processors in a POWER6
partition have been configured by the hypervisor to run in POWER5+
mode rather than POWER6 mode. To cope with this, we call identify_cpu
a second time with the logical PVR value (the first call is with the
real PVR value in the very early setup code).
However, POWER5+ machines can also supply a logical PVR value, and use
the same value (the value that indicates a v2.04 architecture
compliant processor). This causes problems for code that uses the
performance monitor (such as oprofile), because the PMU registers are
different in POWER6 (even in POWER5+ mode) from the real POWER5+.
This change works around this problem by taking out the PMU
information from the cputable entries for the logical PVR values, and
changing identify_cpu so that the second call to it won't overwrite
the PMU information that was established by the first call (the one
with the real PVR), but does update the other fields. Specifically,
if the cputable entry for the logical PVR value has num_pmcs == 0,
none of the PMU-related fields get used.
So that we can create a mixed cputable entry, we now make cur_cpu_spec
point to a single static struct cpu_spec, and copy stuff from
cpu_specs[i] into it. This has the side-effect that we can now make
cpu_specs[] be initdata.
Ultimately it would be good to move the PMU-related fields out to a
separate structure, pointed to by the cputable entries, and change
identify_cpu so that it saves the PMU info pointer, copies the whole
structure, and restores the PMU info pointer, rather than identify_cpu
having to list all the fields that are *not* PMU-related.
