There are some minor issues with support 64-bit PTEs on a 32-bit processor when dealing with SMP. * We need to order the stores in set_pte_at to make sure the flag word is set second. * Change pte_clear to use pte_update so only the flag word is cleared * Added a WARN_ON to set_pte_at to ensure the pte isn't present for the 64-bit pte/SMP case (to ensure our assumption of this fact).

Introduced a new set of low level tlb invalidate functions that do not broadcast invalidates on the bus: _tlbil_all - invalidate all _tlbil_pid - invalidate based on process id (or mm context) _tlbil_va - invalidate based on virtual address (ea + pid) On non-SMP configs _tlbil_all should be functionally equivalent to _tlbia and _tlbil_va should be functionally equivalent to _tlbie. The intent of this change is to handle SMP based invalidates via IPIs instead of broadcasts as the mechanism scales better for larger number of cores. On e500 (fsl-booke mmu) based cores move to using MMUCSR for invalidate alls and tlbsx/tlbwe for invalidate virtual address. Signed-off-by: Kumar Gala <galak@kernel.crashing.org>

Add the fsl,playback-dma and fsl,capture-dma properties to the Freescale MPC8610 HPCD device tree. These properties connect the SSI nodes to the DMA nodes for the DMA channels that the SSI should use. Also update the ssi.txt documentation. These properties will be needed when the ASoC V2 version of the Freescale MPC8610 device drivers are merged into the mainline.

Some architectures (like powerpc) provide status information on the exact type of invalid exception. This is pretty straight forward as we already report invalid exceptions via FP_SET_EXCEPTION. We add new flags (FP_EX_INVALID_*) the architecture code can define if it wants the exact invalid exception reported. We had to split out the INF/INF and 0/0 cases for divide to allow reporting the two invalid forms properly. Signed-off-by: Kumar Gala <galak@kernel.crashing.org> Acked-by: David S.

There is a small bug in the handling of 16G hugepages recently added to the kernel. This doesn't cause a crash or other user-visible problems, but it does mean that more levels of pagetable are allocated than makes sense for 16G pages. The hugepage pagetables for the 16G pages are allocated much lower in the pagetable tree than they should be, with the intervening levels allocated with full pmd and pud pages which will only ever have one entry filled in. This corrects this problem, at the same time cleaning up the handling of which level 64k versus 16M hugepage pagetables are allocated at. The new way of formatting the tests should be more robust against changes in pagetable structure, or any newly added hugepage sizes.

The radix trees used by interrupt controllers for their irq reverse mapping (currently only the XICS found on pSeries) have a complex locking scheme dating back to before the advent of the lockless radix tree. This takes advantage of the lockless radix tree and of the fact that the items of the tree are pointers to a static array (irq_map) elements which can never go under us to simplify the locking. Concurrency between readers and writers is handled by the intrinsic properties of the lockless radix tree. Concurrency between writers is handled with a global mutex.

irq_radix_revmap() currently serves 2 purposes, irq mapping lookup and insertion which happen in interrupt and process context respectively. Separate the function into its 2 components, one for lookup only and one for insertion only. Fix the only user of the revmap tree (XICS) to use the new functions. Also, move the insertion into the radix tree of those irqs that were requested before it was initialized at said tree initialization. Mutual exclusion between the tree initialization and readers/writers is handled via a state variable (revmap_trees_allocated) set to 1 when the tree has been initialized and set to 2 after the already requested irqs have been inserted in the tree by the init path. This state is checked before any reader or writer access just like we used to check for tree.gfp_mask != 0 before. Finally, now that we're not any longer inserting nodes into the radix-tree in interrupt context, turn the GFP_ATOMIC allocations into GFP_KERNEL ones.

This implements CONFIG_RELOCATABLE for 64-bit by making the kernel as a position-independent executable (PIE) when it is set. This involves processing the dynamic relocations in the image in the early stages of booting, even if the kernel is being run at the address it is linked at, since the linker does not necessarily fill in words in the image for which there are dynamic relocations. (In fact the linker does fill in such words for 64-bit executables, though not for 32-bit executables, so in principle we could avoid calling relocate() entirely when we're running a 64-bit kernel at the linked address.) The dynamic relocations are processed by a new function relocate(addr), where the addr parameter is the virtual address where the image will be run. In fact we call it twice; once before calling prom_init, and again when starting the main kernel. This means that reloc_offset() returns 0 in prom_init (since it has been relocated to the address it is running at), which necessitated a few adjustments. This also changes __va and __pa to use an equivalent definition that is simpler. With the relocatable kernel, PAGE_OFFSET and MEMORY_START are constants (for 64-bit) whereas PHYSICAL_START is a variable (and KERNELBASE ideally should be too, but isn't yet). With this, relocatable kernels still copy themselves down to physical address 0 and run there. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

Using LOAD_REG_IMMEDIATE to get the address of kernel symbols generates 5 instructions where LOAD_REG_ADDR can do it in one, and will generate R_PPC64_ADDR16_* relocations in the output when we get to making the kernel as a position-independent executable, which we'd rather not have to handle. This changes various bits of assembly code to use LOAD_REG_ADDR when we need to get the address of a symbol, or to use suitable position-independent code for cases where we can't access the TOC for various reasons, or if we're not running at the address we were linked at. It also cleans up a few minor things; there's no reason to save and restore SRR0/1 around RTAS calls, __mmu_off can get the return address from LR more conveniently than the caller can supply it in R4 (and we already assume elsewhere that EA == RA if the MMU is on in early boot), and enable_64b_mode was using 5 instructions where 2 would do.

This changes the way that the exception prologs transfer control to the handlers in 64-bit kernels with the aim of making it possible to have the prologs separate from the main body of the kernel. Now, instead of computing the address of the handler by taking the top 32 bits of the paca address (to get the 0xc0000000........ part) and ORing in something in the bottom 16 bits, we get the base address of the kernel by doing a load from the paca and add an offset. This also replaces an mfmsr and an ori to compute the MSR value for the handler with a load from the paca. That makes it unnecessary to have a separate version of EXCEPTION_PROLOG_PSERIES that forces 64-bit mode. We can no longer use a direct branches in the exception prolog code, which means that the SLB miss handlers can't branch directly to .slb_miss_realmode any more. Instead we have to compute the address and do an indirect branch. This is conditional on CONFIG_RELOCATABLE; for non-relocatable kernels we use a direct branch as before. (A later change will allow CONFIG_RELOCATABLE to be set on 64-bit powerpc.) Since the secondary CPUs on pSeries start execution in the first 0x100 bytes of real memory and then have to get to wherever the kernel is, we can't use a direct branch to get there. Instead this changes __secondary_hold_spinloop from a flag to a function pointer. When it is set to a non-NULL value, the secondary CPUs jump to the function pointed to by that value. Finally this eliminates one code difference between 32-bit and 64-bit by making __secondary_hold be the text address of the secondary CPU spinloop rather than a function descriptor for it.

This rearranges head_64.S so that we have all the first-level exception prologs together starting at 0x100, followed by all the second-level handlers that are invoked from the first-level prologs, followed by other code. This doesn't make any functional change but will make following changes for relocatable kernel support easier. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

Kdump kernel needs to use only those memory regions that it is allowed to use (crashkernel, rtas, tce, etc.). Each of these regions have their own sizes and are currently added under 'linux,usable-memory' property under each memory@xxx node of the device tree. The ibm,dynamic-memory property of ibm,dynamic-reconfiguration-memory node (on POWER6) now stores in it the representation for most of the logical memory blocks with the size of each memory block being a constant (lmb_size). If one or more or part of the above mentioned regions lie under one of the lmb from ibm,dynamic-memory property, there is a need to identify those regions within the given lmb. This makes the kernel recognize a new 'linux,drconf-usable-memory' property added by kexec-tools. Each entry in this property is of the form of a count followed by that many (base, size) pairs for the above mentioned regions. The number of cells in the count value is given by the #size-cells property of the root node.

The return code from invocation of the notifier for pSeries_reconfig_chain during update of the device tree is not checked. This causes writes to /proc/ppc64/ofdt to update memory properties (i.e. ibm,dyamic-reconfiguration-memory) to always return success, instead of the result of the notifier chain. This happens specifically when we remove/add memory from the device tree on machines using memory specified in the ibm,dynamic-reconfiguration-memory property of the device tree.

This new copy_4K_page() function was originally tuned for the best performance on the Cell processor, but after testing on more 64bit powerpc chips it was found that with a small modification it either matched the performance offered by the current mainline version or bettered it by a small amount. It was found that on a Cell-based QS22 blade the amount of system time measured when compiling a 2.6.26 pseries_defconfig decreased by 4%. Using the same test, a 4-way 970MP machine saw a decrease of 2% in system time. No noticeable change was seen on Power4, Power5 or Power6. The 4096 byte page is copied in thirty-two 128 byte strides. An initial setup loop executes dcbt instructions for the whole source page and dcbz instructions for the whole destination page. To do this, the cache line size is retrieved from ppc64_caches. A new CPU feature bit, CPU_FTR_CP_USE_DCBTZ, (introduced in the previous patch) is used to make the modification to this new copy routine - on Power4, 970 and Cell the feature bit is set so the setup loop is executed, but on all other 64bit chips the setup loop is nop'ed out.

Add a new CPU feature bit, CPU_FTR_CP_USE_DCBTZ, to be added to the 64bit powerpc chips that benefit from having dcbt and dcbz instructions used in their memory copy routines. This will be used in a subsequent patch that updates copy_4K_page(). The new bit is added to Cell, PPC970 and Power4 because they show better performance with the new copy_4K_page() when dcbt and dcbz instructions are used.
