e500 idle setup is a bit messy. e500_idle() is used for PPC32 while book3e_idle() is used for PPC64. As they are mutually exclusive, call them all e500_idle(). Use CONFIG_MPC_85xx instead of PPC32 + E500 in Makefile and rename idle_e500.c to idle_85xx.c . Rename idle_book3e.c to idle_64e.c and remove #ifdef PPC64 in as it's only built on PPC64.

PPC_85xx is PPC32 only. PPC_85xx always selects E500 and is the only PPC32 that selects E500. FSL_BOOKE is selected when E500 and PPC32 are selected. So FSL_BOOKE is redundant with PPC_85xx. Remove FSL_BOOKE. And rename four files accordingly. cpu_setup_fsl_booke.S is not renamed because it is linked to PPC_FSL_BOOK3E and not to FSL_BOOKE as suggested by its name.

Create cpu_specs_XXX.h that will each be dedicated on one of the following mutually exclusive families: - 40x - 44x - 47x - 8xx - e500 - book3s/32 - book3s/64 In book3s/32, the block for 603 has been moved in front in order to not have two 604 blocks.

The only 64-bit Book3E CPUs we support require the selection of CONFIG_PPC_E500MC. However our Kconfig allows configurating a kernel that has 64-bit Book3E support, but without CONFIG_PPC_E500MC enabled. Such a kernel would never boot, it doesn't know about any CPUs. To fix this, force CONFIG_PPC_E500MC to be selected whenever we are building a 64-bit Book3E kernel. And add a test to detect future situations where cpu_specs is empty.

Currently powerpc selects HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS in all cases but one. The exception is if the kernel is being built little endian and explicitly targeted for Power7. The combination of Power7 and little endian was never commercially supported, or widely used. It was only ever possible on bare metal machines, using unofficial firmware, or in qemu guests hosted on those machines. The bare metal firmware support for Power7 was removed in 2019, see skiboot commit 16b7ae64 ("Remove POWER7 and POWER7+ support"). Little endian kernel builds were switched to target Power8 or later in 2018, in commit a73657ea ("powerpc/64: Add GENERIC_CPU support for little endian"). Since then it's only been possible to boot a Power7/LE kernel by explicitly building for Power7. So drop the exception and always select HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS. If anyone does still have a Power7/LE machine it should hopefully continue to boot, just with some performance penality, and if not they can report a bug.

Because 64-bit Book3S uses pgtable-nop4d.h, the P4D is folded into the PGD. So P4D entries are actually PGD entries, or vice versa. The other way to think of it is that the P4D is a single entry page table below the PGD. Zero bits of the address are needed to index into the P4D, therefore a P4D entry maps the same size address space as a PGD entry. As explained in the previous commit, there are no huge page sizes supported directly at the PGD level on 64-bit Book3S, so there are also no huge page sizes supported at the P4D level. Therefore p4d_is_leaf() can never be true, so drop the definition and fallback to the default implementation that always returns false.

On powerpc there are two ways for huge pages to be represented in the top level page table, aka PGD (Page Global Directory). If the address space mapped by an individual PGD entry does not correspond to a given huge page size, then the PGD entry points to a non-standard page table, known as a "hugepd" (Huge Page Directory). The hugepd contains some number of huge page PTEs sufficient to map the address space with the given huge page size. On the other hand, if the address space mapped by an individual PGD entry does correspond exactly to a given huge page size, that PGD entry is used to directly encode the huge page PTE in place. In this case the pgd_huge() wrapper indicates to generic code that the PGD entry is actually a huge page PTE. This commit deals with the pgd_huge() case only, it does nothing with respect to the hugepd case. Over time the size of the virtual address space supported on powerpc has increased several times, which means the location at which huge pages can sit in the tree has also changed. There have also been new huge page sizes added, with the introduction of the Radix MMU. On Power9 and later with the Radix MMU, the largest huge page size in any implementation is 1GB. Since the introduction of Radix, 1GB entries have been supported at the PUD level, with both 4K and 64K base page size. Radix has never had a supported huge page size at the PGD level. On Power8 or earlier, which uses the Hash MMU, or Power9 or later with the Hash MMU enabled, the largest huge page size is 16GB. Using the Hash MMU and a base page size of 4K, 16GB has never been a supported huge page size at the PGD level, due to the geometry being incompatible. The two supported huge page sizes (16M & 16GB) both use the hugepd format. Using the Hash MMU and a base page size of 64K, 16GB pages were supported in the past at the PGD level. However in commit ba95b5d0 ("powerpc/mm/book3s/64: Rework page table geometry for lower memory usage") the page table layout was reworked to shrink the size of the PGD. As a result the 16GB page size now fits at the PUD level when using 64K base page size. Therefore there are no longer any supported configurations where pgd_huge() can be true, so drop the definitions for pgd_huge(), and fallback to the generic definition which is always false.

ELFv2 does not use function descriptors so .opd is not required. Signed-off-by: Nicholas Piggin <npiggin@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20220916040755.2398112-6-npiggin@gmail.com

.sdata2 is a readonly small data section for ppc32, and .data.rel.ro is data that needs relocating but is read-only after that so these can both be moved to the read only memory region.

This moves linker-related tables from .data to read-only area. Relocations are performed at early boot time before memory is protected, after which there should be no modifications required.

Following the example from the binutils default linker script, move .got1 and .got2 out of .text, to just after RO_DATA. Signed-off-by: Nicholas Piggin <npiggin@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20220916040755.2398112-3-npiggin@gmail.com

powerpc has a number of read-only sections and tables that are put after RO_DATA(). Move the __end_rodata symbol to cover these as well. Setting memory to read-only at boot is done using __init_begin, change that to use __end_rodata. This makes is_kernel_rodata() exactly cover the read-only region, as well as other things using __end_rodata (e.g., kernel/dma/debug.c). Boot dmesg also prints the rodata size more accurately.
