2007-01-24[POWERPC] Move ELF_ET_DYN_BASE up to 512MB pointAnton Blanchard
I often test new versions of glibc by doing: LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/XXX/lib /XXX/lib/ld.so.1 <binary> One test case ended up SEGV'ing. Upon closer inspection ld.so was loaded at 0x8000000 (128MB) with the heap right after it. Since we normally link binaries at 0x10000000 (256MB) we only had about 128MB of space for the heap: 00100000-00103000 r-xp 00100000 00:00 0 [vdso] 08000000-0801e000 r-xp 00000000 00:01 33079 /lib/ld-2.5.so 0802d000-0802f000 rwxp 0001d000 00:01 33079 /lib/ld-2.5.so 0802f000-08050000 rwxp 0802f000 00:00 0 [heap] 0fe91000-0ffd9000 r-xp 00000000 00:01 33082 /lib/libc-2.5.so 0ffd9000-0ffe8000 ---p 00148000 00:01 33082 /lib/libc-2.5.so 0ffe8000-0ffea000 r--p 00147000 00:01 33082 /lib/libc-2.5.so 0ffea000-0ffed000 rwxp 00149000 00:01 33082 /lib/libc-2.5.so 10000000-10004000 r-xp 00000000 00:01 76 /bin/sleep 10013000-10014000 rwxp 00003000 00:01 76 /bin/sleep ffb41000-ffb56000 rw-p ffb41000 00:00 0 [stack] One way to fix this is move ELF_ET_DYN_BASE from 0x08000000 to 0x20000000. This allows 128MB for the binary (hopefully enough for even the most crazy c++ apps), and with our current layout we will grow the heap up and the stack down, allowing potentially gigabytes of heap: 00100000-00103000 r-xp 00100000 00:00 0 [vdso] 0fe8a000-0ffd3000 r-xp 00000000 00:01 3350 /lib/tls/libc-2.3.6.so 0ffd3000-0ffe3000 ---p 00149000 00:01 3350 /lib/tls/libc-2.3.6.so 0ffe3000-0ffea000 r--p 00149000 00:01 3350 /lib/tls/libc-2.3.6.so 0ffea000-0ffee000 rwxp 00150000 00:01 3350 /lib/tls/libc-2.3.6.so 10000000-10004000 r-xp 00000000 00:01 76 /bin/sleep 10013000-10014000 rwxp 00003000 00:01 76 /bin/sleep 20000000-20018000 r-xp 00000000 00:01 3478 /lib/ld-2.3.6.so 20028000-20029000 r--p 00018000 00:01 3478 /lib/ld-2.3.6.so 20029000-2002a000 rwxp 00019000 00:01 3478 /lib/ld-2.3.6.so 2002a000-2004b000 rwxp 2002a000 00:00 0 [heap] ffd67000-ffd7c000 rw-p ffd67000 00:00 0 [stack] Signed-off-by: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

2006-12-04[POWERPC] cell: fix building without spufsArnd Bergmann
It may be desireable to build a kernel for cell without spufs, e.g. as the initial kboot kernel. This requires that the SPU specific parts of the core dump and the xmon code depend on CONFIG_SPU_BASE instead of CONFIG_PPC_CELL. Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd.bergmann@de.ibm.com>
2006-12-04[POWERPC] coredump: Add SPU elf notes to coredump.Dwayne Grant McConnell
This patch adds SPU elf notes to the coredump. It creates a separate note for each of /regs, /fpcr, /lslr, /decr, /decr_status, /mem, /signal1, /signal1_type, /signal2, /signal2_type, /event_mask, /event_status, /mbox_info, /ibox_info, /wbox_info, /dma_info, /proxydma_info, /object-id. A new macro, ARCH_HAVE_EXTRA_NOTES, was created for architectures to specify they have extra elf core notes. A new macro, ELF_CORE_EXTRA_NOTES_SIZE, was created so the size of the additional notes could be calculated and added to the notes phdr entry. A new macro, ELF_CORE_WRITE_EXTRA_NOTES, was created so the new notes would be written after the existing notes. The SPU coredump code resides in spufs. Stub functions are provided in the kernel which are hooked into the spufs code which does the actual work via register_arch_coredump_calls(). A new set of __spufs_<file>_read/get() functions was provided to allow the coredump code to read from the spufs files without having to lock the SPU context for each file read from.

2006-06-09[PATCH] powerpc vdso updatesBenjamin Herrenschmidt
This patch cleans up some locking & error handling in the ppc vdso and moves the vdso base pointer from the thread struct to the mm context where it more logically belongs. It brings the powerpc implementation closer to Ingo's new x86 one and also adds an arch_vma_name() function allowing to print [vsdo] in /proc/<pid>/maps if Ingo's x86 vdso patch is also applied.

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] 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.

2005-11-11[PATCH] powerpc: Merge vdso's and add vdso support to 32 bits kernelBenjamin Herrenschmidt
This patch moves the vdso's to arch/powerpc, adds support for the 32 bits vdso to the 32 bits kernel, rename systemcfg (finally !), and adds some new (still untested) routines to both vdso's: clock_gettime() with support for CLOCK_REALTIME and CLOCK_MONOTONIC, clock_getres() (same clocks) and get_tbfreq() for glibc to retreive the timebase frequency. Tom,Steve: The implementation of get_tbfreq() I've done for 32 bits returns a long long (r3, r4) not a long. This is such that if we ever add support for >4Ghz timebases on ppc32, the userland interface won't have to change. I have tested gettimeofday() using some glibc patches in both ppc32 and ppc64 kernels using 32 bits userland (I haven't had a chance to test a 64 bits userland yet, but the implementation didn't change and was tested earlier). I haven't tested yet the new functions. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

2005-11-04powerpc: Fix random memory corruption in merged elf.hMichael Ellerman
The merged verison of ELF_CORE_COPY_REGS is basically the PPC64 version, with a memset that came from PPC and a few types abstracted out into #defines. But it's not _quite_ right. The first problem is we calculate the number of registers with: nregs = sizeof(struct pt_regs) / sizeof(ELF_GREG_TYPE) For a 32-bit process on a 64-bit kernel that's bogus because the registers are 64 bits, but ELF_GREG_TYPE is u32, so nregs == 88 which is wrong. The other problem is the memset, which assumes a struct pt_regs is smaller than a struct elf_regs. For a 32-bit process on a 64-bit kernel that's false. The fix is to calculate the number of regs using sizeof(unsigned long), which should always be right, and just memset the whole damn thing _before_ copying the registers in.

2005-09-28[PATCH] ppc32: make cur_cpu_spec a single pointer instead of an arrayKumar Gala
Changed ppc32 so that cur_cpu_spec is just a single pointer for all CPUs. Additionally, made call_setup_cpu check to see if the cpu_setup pointer is NULL or not before calling the function.
