This patch fixes a few issues in offb:
- A test was inverted causing the palette hack to never work
(no device node was passed down to the init function)
- Some cards seem to have their assigned-addresses property in a random
order, thus we need to try using of_get_pci_address() first, which will
fail if it's not a PCI device, and fallback to of_get_address() in that
case. of_get_pci_address() properly parsees assigned-addresses to test
the BAR number and thus will get it right whatever the order is.
- Some cards (like GXT4500) provide a linebytes of 0xffffffff in the
device-tree which does no good. This patch handles that by using the
screen width when that happens. (Also fixes btext.c while at it).
- Add detection of the GXT4500 in addition to the GXT2000 for the
palette hacks (we use the same hack, palette is linear in register space
at offset 0x6000).

This patch adds a command to xmon for dumping information about
spu structs. The command is 'sf' for "spu fields" perhaps, and
takes the spu number as an argument. This is the same value as the
spu->number field, or the "phys-id" value of a context when it is
bound to a physical spu.
We try to catch memory errors as we dump each field, hopefully this
will make the command reasonably robust, but YMMV. If people see a
need we can easily add more fields to the dump in future.
Output looks something like this:
0:mon> sf 0

This patch adds support for stopping, and restarting, spus
from xmon. We use the spu master runcntl bit to stop execution,
this is apparently the "right" way to control spu execution and
spufs will be changed in the future to use this bit.
Testing has shown that to restart execution we have to turn the
master runcntl bit on and also rewrite the spu runcntl bit, even
if it is already set to 1 (running).
Stopping spus is triggered by the xmon command 'ss' - "spus stop"
perhaps. Restarting them is triggered via 'sr'. Restart doesn't
start execution on spus unless they were running prior to being
stopped by xmon.
Walking the spu->full_list in xmon after a panic, would mean
corruption of any spu struct would make all the others
inaccessible. To avoid this, and also to make the next patch
easier, we cache pointers to all spus during boot.
We attempt to catch and recover from errors while stopping and
restarting the spus, but as with most xmon functionality there are
no guarantees that performing these operations won't crash xmon
itself.

When in isolated mode, SPEs have access to an area of persistent
storage, which is per-SPE. In order for isolated-mode apps to
communicate arbitrary data through this storage, we need to ensure that
isolated physical SPEs can be reused for subsequent applications.
Add a file ("recycle") in a spethread dir to enable isolated-mode
recycling. By writing to this file, the kernel will reload the
isolated-mode loader kernel, allowing a new app to be run on the same
physical SPE.
This requires the spu_acquire_exclusive function to enforce exclusive
access to the SPE while the loader is initialised.

This patch adds general support for isolated mode SPE apps.
Isolated apps are started indirectly, by a dedicated loader "kernel".
This patch starts the loader when spe_create is invoked with the
ISOLATE flag. We do this at spe_create time to allow libspe to pass the
isolated app in before calling spe_run.
The loader is read from the device tree, at the location
"/spu-isolation/loader". If the loader is not present, an attempt to
start an isolated SPE binary will fail with -ENODEV.
Update: loader needs to be correctly aligned - copy to a kmalloced buf.
Update: remove workaround for systemsim/spurom 'L-bit' bug, which has
been fixed.
Update: don't write to runcntl on spu_run_init: SPU is already running.
Update: do spu_setup_isolated earlier

SPRN_SDR1 and the SPE's MFC SDR are hypervisor resources and
are not accessible from a logical partition. This change adds an
access wrapper.
When running on bare H/W, the spufs needs to only set the SPE's MFC SDR
to the value of the PPE's SPRN_SDR1 once at SPE initialization, so this
change renames mfc_sdr_set() to mfc_sdr_setup() and moves the
access of SPRN_SDR1 into the mmio wrapper. It also removes the now
unneeded member mfc_sdr_RW from struct spu_priv1_collapsed.

This causes ipic_set_irq_type to set the handler directly rather
than call set_irq_handler, which causes spinlock recursion because
the lock is already held when ipic_set_irq_type is called.
I'm also not convinced that ipic_set_irq_type should be changing the
handler at all. There seem to be several controllers that don't and
several that do. Those that do would break what appears to be a common
usage of calling set_irq_chip_and_handler followed by set_irq_type, if a
non-standard handler were to be used. OTOH, irq_create_of_mapping()
doesn't set the handler, but only calls set_irq_type().
This patch gets things working in the spinlock-debugging-enabled case,
but I'm curious as to where the handler setting is ideally supposed to be
done. I don't see any documentation on set_irq_type() that clarifies
what the semantics are supposed to be.

Currently, spufs_mbox_read transfers more bytes than requested on a
read. If you ask for four bytes, you get eight. This fixes it to
transfer the largest multiple of four bytes that is less than or equal
to the number you asked for.
Note: one nasty property of this file in spufs is that you can only
read multiples of four bytes in the first place, since there is no way
to atomically put back a few bytes into the hardware register. Thus,
reading less than four bytes returns -EINVAL. Asking for more than
four returns the largest possible multiple of four.

The Cell CPU timebase has an erratum. When reading the entire 64 bits
of the timebase with one mftb instruction, there is a handful of cycles
window during which one might read a value with the low order 32 bits
already reset to 0x00000000 but the high order bits not yet incremeted
by one. This fixes it by reading the timebase again until the low order
32 bits is no longer 0. That might introduce occasional latencies if
hitting mftb just at the wrong time, but no more than 70ns on a cell
blade, and that was considered acceptable.

This patch reworks the feature fixup mecanism so vdso's can be fixed up.
The main issue was that the construct:
.long label (or .llong on 64 bits)
will not work in the case of a shared library like the vdso. It will
generate an empty placeholder in the fixup table along with a reloc,
which is not something we can deal with in the vdso.
The idea here (thanks Alan Modra !) is to instead use something like:
1:
.long label - 1b
That is, the feature fixup tables no longer contain addresses of bits of
code to patch, but offsets of such code from the fixup table entry
itself. That is properly resolved by ld when building the .so's. I've
modified the fixup mecanism generically to use that method for the rest
of the kernel as well.
Another trick is that the 32 bits vDSO included in the 64 bits kernel
need to have a table in the 64 bits format. However, gas does not
support 32 bits code with a statement of the form:
.llong label - 1b (Or even just .llong label)
That is, it cannot emit the right fixup/relocation for the linker to use
to assign a 32 bits address to an .llong field. Thus, in the specific
case of the 32 bits vdso built as part of the 64 bits kernel, we are
using a modified macro that generates:
.long 0xffffffff
.llong label - 1b
Note that is assumes that the value is negative which is enforced by
the .lds (those offsets are always negative as the .text is always
before the fixup table and gas doesn't support emiting the reloc the
other way around).

There are currently two versions of the functions for applying the
feature fixups, one for CPU features and one for firmware features. In
addition, they are both in assembly and with separate implementations
for 32 and 64 bits. identify_cpu() is also implemented in assembly and
separately for 32 and 64 bits.
This patch replaces them with a pair of C functions. The call sites are
slightly moved on ppc64 as well to be called from C instead of from
assembly, though it's a very small change, and thus shouldn't cause any
problem.

Remove the iSeries initrd logic, instead just store the initrd location and

The iSeries code had a "feature" which the generic code lacks, ie. if the
compressed initrd is bigger than the configured ram disk size, we make
the ram disk size bigger. That's bogus, as the compressed size of the initrd
tells us nothing about how big the ram disk needs to be. If the ram disk

In calculating stolen time, we were trying to actually account for time
spent in the hypervisor. We don't really have enough information to do
that accurately, so don't try. Instead, we now calculate stolen time as
time that the current cpu thread is not actually dispatching instructions.
On chips without a PURR, we cannot do this, so stolen time will always
be zero. On chips with a PURR, this is merely the difference between
the elapsed PURR values and the elapsed TB values.
This gives us much more sane vaules from tools such as mpstat, even if
they are still a bit strange e.g. 2 busy threads on one cpu will both
appear to have 50% user time and 50% stolen time while 1 busy thread on
a cpu will look like 100% user on one of them and 100% idle on the other.

The lazy IRQ disable patch missed a couple of places where the

weren't restoring the paca->hard_enabled flag on interrupt exit.
Instead of saving it on entry, we compute it from the MSR_EE bit
in the MSR we are restoring at exit. Secondly, the MMU hash miss
code was clearing both paca->soft_enabled and paca->hard_enabled
but not restoring them in the case where hash_page was able to

Without this patch, on an idle system I get:
cpu-power-0:21.638
cpu-power-1:27.102
cpu-power-2:29.343
cpu-power-3:25.784
Total: 103.8W
With this patch:
cpu-power-0:11.730
cpu-power-1:17.185
cpu-power-2:18.547
cpu-power-3:17.528
Total: 65.0W
If I lower HZ to 100, I can get it as low as:
cpu-power-0:10.938
cpu-power-1:16.021
cpu-power-2:17.245
cpu-power-3:16.145
Total: 60.2W
Another (older) Quad G5 went from 54W to 39W at HZ=250.
Coming back out of Deep Nap takes 40-70 cycles longer than coming back
from just Nap (which already takes quite a while). I don't think it'll
be a performance issue (interrupt latency on an idle system), but in
case someone does measurements feel free to report them.
