2008-02-05[POWERPC] Made FSL Book-E PMC support more genericAndy Fleming
Some of the more recent e300 cores have the same performance monitor implementation as the e500. e300 isn't book-e, so the name isn't really appropriate. In preparation for e300 support, rename a bunch of fsl_booke things to say fsl_emb (Freescale Embedded Performance Monitors).

2007-12-23[POWERPC] Reworking machine check handling and Fix 440/440ABenjamin Herrenschmidt
This adds a cputable function pointer for the CPU-side machine check handling. The semantic is still the same as the old one, the one in ppc_md. overrides the one in cputable, though ultimately we'll want to change that so the CPU gets first. This removes CONFIG_440A which was a problem for multiplatform kernels and instead fixes up the IVOR at runtime from a setup_cpu function. The "A" version of the machine check also tweaks the regs->trap value to differenciate the 2 versions at the C level.

2007-11-13[POWERPC] Avoid unpaired stwcx. on some processorsBecky Bruce
The context switch code in the kernel issues a dummy stwcx. to clear the reservation, as recommended by the architecture. However, some processors can have issues if this stwcx to address A occurs while the reservation is already held to a different address B. To avoid this problem, the dummy stwcx. needs to be paired with a dummy lwarx to the same address. This adds the dummy lwarx, and creates a cpu feature bit to indicate which cpus are affected. Tested on mpc8641_hpcn_defconfig in arch/powerpc; build tested in arch/ppc. Signed-off-by: Becky Bruce <becky.bruce@freescale.com> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
2007-10-17[POWERPC] Add 1TB workaround for PA6TOlof Johansson
PA6T has a bug where the slbie instruction does not honor the large segment bit. As a result, we have to always use slbia when switching context. We don't have to worry about changing the slbie's during fault processing, since they should never be replacing one VSID with another using the same ESID. I.e. there's no risk for inserting duplicate entries due to a failed slbie of the old entry. So as long as we clear it out on context switch we should be fine.

2007-10-12[POWERPC] Use 1TB segmentsPaul Mackerras
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. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
2007-10-11[POWERPC] Fix performance monitor on machines with logical PVRPaul Mackerras
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.

2007-06-14[POWERPC] Merge CPU features pertaining to icache coherencyDavid Gibson
Currently the powerpc kernel has a 64-bit only feature, COHERENT_ICACHE used for those CPUS which maintain icache/dcache coherency in hardware (POWER5, essentially). It also has a feature, SPLIT_ID_CACHE, which is used on CPUs which have separate i and d-caches, which is to say everything except 601 and Freescale E200. In nearly all the places we check the SPLIT_ID_CACHE, what we actually care about is whether the i and d-caches are coherent (which they will be, trivially, if they're the same cache). This tries to clarify the situation a little. The COHERENT_ICACHE feature becomes availble on 32-bit and is set for all CPUs where i and d-cache are effectively coherent, whether this is due to special logic (POWER5) or because they're unified. We check this, instead of SPLIT_ID_CACHE nearly everywhere. The SPLIT_ID_CACHE feature itself is replaced by a UNIFIED_ID_CACHE feature with reversed sense, set only on 601 and Freescale E200. In the two places (one Freescale BookE specific) where we really care whether it's a unified cache, not whether they're coherent, we check this feature. The CPUs with unified cache are so few, we could consider replacing this feature bit with explicit checks against the PVR. This will make unifying the 32-bit and 64-bit cache flush code a little more straightforward. Signed-off-by: David Gibson <dwg@au1.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

2006-12-08[POWERPC] Add support for FP emulation for the e300c2 coreKim Phillips
The e300c2 has no FPU. Its MSR[FP] is grounded to zero. If an attempt is made to execute a floating point instruction (including floating-point load, store, or move instructions), the e300c2 takes a floating-point unavailable interrupt. This patch adds support for FP emulation on the e300c2 by declaring a new CPU_FTR_FP_TAKES_FPUNAVAIL, where FP unavail interrupts are intercepted and redirected to the ProgramCheck exception path for correct emulation handling. (If we run out of CPU_FTR bits we could look to reclaim this bit by adding support to test the cpu_user_features for PPC_FEATURE_HAS_FPU instead) It adds a nop to the exception path for 32-bit processors with a FPU.

2006-12-04[POWERPC] Distinguish POWER6 partition modes and tell userspacePaul Mackerras
This adds code to look at the properties firmware puts in the device tree to determine what compatibility mode the partition is in on POWER6 machines, and set the ELF aux vector AT_HWCAP and AT_PLATFORM entries appropriately. Specifically, we look at the cpu-version property in the cpu node(s). If that contains a "logical" PVR value (of the form 0x0f00000x), we call identify_cpu again with this PVR value. A value of 0x0f000001 indicates the partition is in POWER5+ compatibility mode, and a value of 0x0f000002 indicates "POWER6 architected" mode, with various extensions disabled. We also look for various other properties: ibm,dfp, ibm,purr and ibm,spurr. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
2006-12-04[POWERPC] cell: Add oprofile supportMaynard Johnson
Add PPU event-based and cycle-based profiling support to Oprofile for Cell. Oprofile is expected to collect data on all CPUs simultaneously. However, there is one set of performance counters per node. There are two hardware threads or virtual CPUs on each node. Hence, OProfile must multiplex in time the performance counter collection on the two virtual CPUs. The multiplexing of the performance counters is done by a virtual counter routine. Initially, the counters are configured to collect data on the even CPUs in the system, one CPU per node. In order to capture the PC for the virtual CPU when the performance counter interrupt occurs (the specified number of events between samples has occurred), the even processors are configured to handle the performance counter interrupts for their node. The virtual counter routine is called via a kernel timer after the virtual sample time. The routine stops the counters, saves the current counts, loads the last counts for the other virtual CPU on the node, sets interrupts to be handled by the other virtual CPU and restarts the counters, the virtual timer routine is scheduled to run again. The virtual sample time is kept relatively small to make sure sampling occurs on both CPUs on the node with a relatively small granularity. Whenever the counters overflow, the performance counter interrupt is called to collect the PC for the CPU where data is being collected. The oprofile driver relies on a firmware RTAS call to setup the debug bus to route the desired signals to the performance counter hardware to be counted. The RTAS call must set the routing registers appropriately in each of the islands to pass the signals down the debug bus as well as routing the signals from a particular island onto the bus. There is a second firmware RTAS call to reset the debug bus to the non pass thru state when the counters are not in use.

2006-10-25[POWERPC] Cell timebase bug workaroundBenjamin Herrenschmidt
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.

2006-10-25[POWERPC] Support feature fixups in vdso'sBenjamin Herrenschmidt
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).

It's actually a somewhat misleading feature, but I'll leave that be for now: The presence of the register is not what the feature bit is used for, but instead it's used to determine if it contains the runlatch bit for idle reporting of the performance monitor.

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. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

2006-02-24powerpc: Implement accurate task and CPU time accountingPaul Mackerras
This implements accurate task and cpu time accounting for 64-bit powerpc kernels. Instead of accounting a whole jiffy of time to a task on a timer interrupt because that task happened to be running at the time, we now account time in units of timebase ticks according to the actual time spent by the task in user mode and kernel mode. We also count the time spent processing hardware and software interrupts accurately. This is conditional on CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING. If that is not set, we do tick-based approximate accounting as before. To get this accurate information, we read either the PURR (processor utilization of resources register) on POWER5 machines, or the timebase on other machines on * each entry to the kernel from usermode * each exit to usermode * transitions between process context, hard irq context and soft irq context in kernel mode * context switches. On POWER5 systems with shared-processor logical partitioning we also read both the PURR and the timebase at each timer interrupt and context switch in order to determine how much time has been taken by the hypervisor to run other partitions ("steal" time). Unfortunately, since we need values of the PURR on both threads at the same time to accurately calculate the steal time, and since we can only calculate steal time on a per-core basis, the apportioning of the steal time between idle time (time which we ceded to the hypervisor in the idle loop) and actual stolen time is somewhat approximate at the moment. This is all based quite heavily on what s390 does, and it uses the generic interfaces that were added by the s390 developers, i.e. account_system_time(), account_user_time(), etc. This patch doesn't add any new interfaces between the kernel and userspace, and doesn't change the units in which time is reported to userspace by things such as /proc/stat, /proc/<pid>/stat, getrusage(), times(), etc. Internally the various task and cpu times are stored in timebase units, but they are converted to USER_HZ units (1/100th of a second) when reported to userspace. Some precision is therefore lost but there should not be any accumulating error, since the internal accumulation is at full precision. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

CC [M] drivers/usb/input/wacom.o drivers/usb/input/wacom.c:98: error: conflicting types for `G4' include/asm/cputable.h:37: error: previous declaration of `G4' CC [M] drivers/usb/mon/mon_text.o make[3]: *** [drivers/usb/input/wacom.o] Error 1 make[2]: *** [drivers/usb/input] Error 2 The elements of an enum declared in global scope are effectivly global identifiers themselves. As such we need to ensure the names are unique. This patch updates the later oprofile support to use unique names.

2006-01-14powerpc: Provide a suitable AT_PLATFORM valuePaul Mackerras
The glibc folks want to use AT_PLATFORM to select between possible alternative versions of shared libraries. This commit makes the kernel supply an AT_PLATFORM string that indicates what class of processor we are running on. Processors with the same set of user-level instructions and roughly the same instruction scheduling characteristics are given the same AT_PLATFORM value; for example, 821, 823 and 860 are all reported as "ppc823", and 7447, 7447A, 7448, 7450, 7451, 7455 are all called "ppc7450". The intention is that the AT_PLATFORM values match the values that gcc accepts for the -mcpu= option. For values which are numeric (e.g. -mcpu=750), "ppc" has been prepended. This also adds a PPC_FEATURE_BOOKE bit to the AT_HWCAP value and sets it for the 440 family and the Freescale 85xx family. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
2006-01-09[PATCH] ppc64: Fix oprofile when compiled as a moduleAnton Blanchard
My recent changes to oprofile broke it when built as a module. Fix it by using an enum instead of a function pointer. This way we still retain the oprofile configuration in the cputable. Signed-off-by: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
2006-01-09[PATCH] cell: enable pause(0) in cpu_idleArnd Bergmann
This patch enables support for pause(0) power management state for the Cell Broadband Processor, which is import for power efficient operation. The pervasive infrastructure will in the future enable us to introduce more functionality specific to the Cell's pervasive unit.

2006-01-09[PATCH] powerpc: sanitize header files for user space includesArnd Bergmann
include/asm-ppc/ had #ifdef __KERNEL__ in all header files that are not meant for use by user space, include/asm-powerpc does not have this yet. This patch gets us a lot closer there. There are a few cases where I was not sure, so I left them out. I have verified that no CONFIG_* symbols are used outside of __KERNEL__ any more and that there are no obvious compile errors when including any of the headers in user space libraries.

2005-11-18[PATCH] powerpc: merge align.cBenjamin Herrenschmidt
This patch merges align.c, the result isn't quite what was in ppc64 nor what was in ppc32 :) It should implement all the functionalities of both though. Kumar, since you played with that in the past, I suppose you have some test cases for verifying that it works properly before I dig out the 601 machine ? :) Since it's likely that I won't be able to test all scenario, code inspection is much welcome.
