8xx has not had WRITETHRU due to lack of bits in the pte. After the recent rewrite of the 8xx TLB code, there are two bits left. Use one of them to WRITETHRU. Perhaps use the last SW bit to PAGE_SPECIAL or PAGE_FILE? Signed-off-by: Joakim Tjernlund <Joakim.Tjernlund@transmode.se> Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

dcbz, dcbf, dcbi, dcbst and icbi do not set DAR when they cause a DTLB Error. Dectect this by tagging DAR with 0x00f0 at every exception exit that modifies DAR. Test for DAR=0x00f0 in DataTLBError and bail to handle_page_fault(). Signed-off-by: Joakim Tjernlund <Joakim.Tjernlund@transmode.se> Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

Update the TLB asm to make proper use of _PAGE_DIRY and _PAGE_ACCESSED. Get rid of _PAGE_HWWRITE too. Pros: - I/D TLB Miss never needs to write to the linux pte. - _PAGE_ACCESSED is only set on TLB Error fixing accounting - _PAGE_DIRTY is mapped to 0x100, the changed bit, and is set directly when a page has been made dirty. - Proper RO/RW mapping of user space. - Free up 2 SW TLB bits in the linux pte(add back _PAGE_WRITETHRU ?) - kernel RO/user NA support. Cons: - A few more instructions in the TLB Miss routines. Signed-off-by: Joakim Tjernlund <Joakim.Tjernlund@transmode.se> Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

Currently the cpu-allocation/deallocation process comprises of two steps: - Set the indicators and to update the device tree with DLPAR node information. - Online/offline the allocated/deallocated CPU. This is achieved by writing to the sysfs tunables "probe" during allocation and "release" during deallocation. At the sametime, the userspace can independently online/offline the CPUs of the system using the sysfs tunable "online". It is quite possible that when a userspace tool offlines a CPU for the purpose of deallocation and is in the process of updating the device tree, some other userspace tool could bring the CPU back online by writing to the "online" sysfs tunable thereby causing the deallocate process to fail. The solution to this is to serialize writes to the "probe/release" sysfs tunable with the writes to the "online" sysfs tunable. This patch employs a mutex to provide this serialization, which is a no-op on all architectures except PPC_PSERIES Signed-off-by: Gautham R Shenoy <ego@in.ibm.com> Acked-by: Vaidyanathan Srinivasan <svaidy@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

Currently the cpu-allocation/deallocation on pSeries is a two step process from the Userspace. - Set the indicators and update the device tree by writing to the sysfs tunable "probe" during allocation and "release" during deallocation. - Online / Offline the CPUs of the allocated/would_be_deallocated node by writing to the sysfs tunable "online". This patch adds kernel code to online/offline the CPUs soon_after/just_before they have been allocated/would_be_deallocated. This way, the userspace tool that performs DLPAR operations would only have to deal with one set of sysfs tunables namely "probe" and release".

Version 3 of this patch is updated with documentation added to Documentation/ABI. There are no changes to any of the C code from v2 of the patch. In order to support kernel DLPAR of CPU resources we need to provide an interface to add (probe) and remove (release) the resource from the system. This patch Creates new generic probe and release sysfs files to facilitate cpu probe/release. The probe/release interface provides for allowing each arch to supply their own routines for implementing the backend of adding and removing cpus to/from the system. This also creates the powerpc specific stubs to handle the arch callouts from writes to the sysfs files. The creation and use of these files is regulated by the CONFIG_ARCH_CPU_PROBE_RELEASE option so that only architectures that need the capability will have the files created.

The Dynamic Logical Partitioning capabilities of the powerpc pseries platform allows for the addition and removal of resources (i.e. CPU's, memory, and PCI devices) from a partition. The removal of a resource involves removing the resource's node from the device tree and then returning the resource to firmware via the rtas set-indicator call. To add a resource, it is first obtained from firmware via the rtas set-indicator call and then a new device tree node is created using the ibm,configure-coinnector rtas call and added to the device tree. This patch provides the kernel DLPAR infrastructure in a new filed named dlpar.c. The functionality provided is for acquiring and releasing a resource from firmware and the parsing of information returned from the ibm,configure-connector rtas call. Additionally this exports the pSeries reconfiguration notifier chain so that it can be invoked when device tree updates are made.

In commit 0512a9a8, we unilaterally zero the "pwm invert" bit in the fan behavior configuration register. On my PowerBook G4, this results in the fans going to full speed at low temperature and shutting off at high temperature because the pwm invert bit is supposed to be set. Therefore, record the pwm invert bit at driver load time, and write the bit into the fan behavior control register. This restores correct behavior on my PBG4 and should work around the bit being set to the wrong value after suspend/resume (which is what the original patch was trying to fix). It also fixes a minor omission where the pwm invert bit correction is NOT performed when switching into automatic mode. Signed-off-by: Darrick J.

This is a libata driver for the "macio" IDE controller used on most Apple PowerMac and PowerBooks. It's a libata equivalent of drivers/ide/ppc/pmac.c It supports all the features of its predecessor, including mediabay hotplug and suspend/resume. It should also support module load/unload. The timing calculations have been simplified to use pre-calculated tables compared to drivers/ide/pmac.c and it uses the new mediabay interface provided by a previous patch.

In libata-sff, ata_sff_post_internal_cmd() directly calls ata_bmdma_stop() instead of ap->ops->bmdma_stop().

The hotplug mediabay has tendrils deep into drivers/ide code which makes a libata port reather difficult. In addition it's ugly and could be done better. This reworks the interface between the mediabay and the rest of the world so that: - Any macio_driver can now have a mediabay_event callback which will be called when that driver sits on a mediabay and it's been either plugged or unplugged. The device type is passed as an argument. We can now move all the IDE cruft into the IDE driver itself - A check_media_bay() function can be used to take a peek at the type of device currently in the bay if any, a cleaner variant of the previous function with the same name. - A pair of lock/unlock functions are exposed to allow the IDE driver to block the hotplug callbacks during the initial setup and probing of the bay in order to avoid nasty race conditions. - The mediabay code no longer needs to spin on the status register of the IDE interface when it detects an IDE device, this is done just fine by the IDE code itself Overall, less code, simpler, and allows for another driver than our old drivers/ide based one.

Currently userspace has no chance to find out which virtual address space we're in and resolve addresses. While that is a big problem for migration, it's also unpleasent when debugging, as gdb and the monitor don't work on virtual addresses. This patch exports enough of the MMU segment state to userspace to make debugging work and thus also includes the groundwork for migration.

Commit a0668cdc cleans up the handling of kmem_caches for allocating various levels of pagetables. Unfortunately, it conflicts badly with CONFIG_PPC_SUBPAGE_PROT, due to the latter's cleverly hidden technique of adding some extra allocation space to the top level page directory to store the extra information it needs. Since that extra allocation really doesn't fit into the cleaned up page directory allocating scheme, this patch alters CONFIG_PPC_SUBPAGE_PROT to instead allocate its struct subpage_prot_table as part of the mm_context_t.

Many boards have a bug-free ns16550 compatible serial port, which we should register as PORT_16550A. This introduces a new value "ns16550a" for the compatible property of of_serial to let a firmware choose that model instead of using the crippled PORT_16550 mode.

Commit a4fe3ce7 introduced a new get_user_pages() path for hugepages on powerpc. Unfortunately, there is a bug in it's loop logic, which can cause it to overrun the end of the intended region. This came about by copying the logic from the normal page path, which assumes the address and end parameters have been pagesize aligned at the top-level. Since they're not *hugepage* size aligned, the simplistic logic could step over the end of the gup region without triggering the loop end condition. This patch fixes the bug by using the technique that the normal page path uses in levels above the lowest to truncate the ending address to something we know we'll match with.

Commit 87ec0e98 in kumar's next branch broke one of my test configs since it looks like Anton forgot about that mpc832x_rdb platform which still uses the old style probing for the SPI stuff. I'll let them do a cleaner fix that probably involves changing the probing method and getting rid of the platform device but for now this will do to fix it.
