      powerpc/xics: Update default_server during migrate_irqs_away · 302905a3
      Milton Miller authored 
      Currently, every time we determine which irq server to use, we check if
default_server, which is the id of the bootcpu, is still online.  But
default_server is a hardware cpu, not the logical cpu id needed to index
cpu_online_map.

Since the default server can only go offline during a cpu hotplug event,
explicitly check the default server and choose the new one when we move
irqs away from the cpu being offlined.

This has the added benefit of only needing the boot_cpuid to be updated
and not relying on the cpu being marked offline during migrate_irqs_away.

Also, since xics_update_irq_servers only reads device tree information, we
can call it before xics_init_host in xics_init_IRQ and then default_server
will always be valid when we can reach get_irq_server via the host ops.

      powerpc/xics: EOI unmapped irqs after disabling them · 8767e9ba
      Milton Miller authored 
      When reciving an irq vector that does not have a linux mapping, the kernel
prints a message and calls RTAS to disable the irq source.   Previously
the kernel did not EOI the interrupt, causing the source to think it is
still being processed by software.  While this does add an additional
layer of protection against interrupt storms had RTAS failed to disable
the source, it also prevents the interrupt from working when a driver
later enables it.  (We could alternatively send an EOI on startup, but
that strategy would likely fail on an emulated xics.)

All interrupts should be disabled when the kernel starts, but this can
be observed if a driver does not shutdown an interrupt in its reboot
hook before starting a new kernel with kexec.

Michael reports this can be reproduced trivially by banging the keyboard
while kexec'ing on a P5 LPAR: even though the hvc_console driver request's
the console irq later in boot, the console is non-functional because
we're receiving no console interrupts.

      powerpc: Reserve in bootmem lmb reserved regions that cross NUMA nodes · 8f64e1f2
      Jon Tollefson authored 
      If there are multiple reserved memory blocks via lmb_reserve() that are
contiguous addresses and on different NUMA nodes we are losing track of which
address ranges to reserve in bootmem on which node.  I discovered this
when I recently got to try 16GB huge pages on a system with more then 2 nodes.

When scanning the device tree in early boot we call lmb_reserve() with
the addresses of the 16G pages that we find so that the memory doesn't
get used for something else.  For example the addresses for the pages
could be 4000000000, 4400000000, 4800000000, 4C00000000, etc - 8 pages,
one on each of eight nodes.  In the lmb after all the pages have been
reserved it will look something like the following:

lmb_dump_all:
    memory.cnt            = 0x2
    memory.size           = 0x3e80000000
    memory.region[0x0].base       = 0x0
                      .size     = 0x1e80000000
    memory.region[0x1].base       = 0x4000000000
                      .size     = 0x2000000000
    reserved.cnt          = 0x5
    reserved.size         = 0x3e80000000
    reserved.region[0x0].base       = 0x0
                      .size     = 0x7b5000
    reserved.region[0x1].base       = 0x2a00000
                      .size     = 0x78c000
    reserved.region[0x2].base       = 0x328c000
                      .size     = 0x43000
    reserved.region[0x3].base       = 0xf4e8000
                      .size     = 0xb18000
    reserved.region[0x4].base       = 0x4000000000
                      .size     = 0x2000000000

The reserved.region[0x4] contains the 16G pages.  In
arch/powerpc/mm/num.c: do_init_bootmem() we loop through each of the
node numbers looking for the reserved regions that belong to the
particular node.  It is not able to identify region 0x4 as being a part
of each of the 8 nodes.  It is assuming that a reserved region is only
on a single node.

This patch takes out the reserved region loop from inside
the loop that goes over each node.  It looks up the active region containing
the start of the reserved region.  If it extends past that active region then
it adjusts the size and gets the next active region containing it.

      powerpc: Sync RPA note in zImage with kernel's RPA note · 91a00302
      Paul Mackerras authored 
      Commit 9b09c6d9 ("powerpc: Change the
default link address for pSeries zImage kernels") changed the
real-base value in the CHRP note added by the addnote program from
12MB to 32MB to give more space for Open Firmware to load the zImage.
(The real-base value says where we want OF to position itself in
memory.)  However, this change was ineffective on most pSeries
machines, because the RPA note added by addnote has the "ignore me"
flag set to 1.  This was intended to tell OF to ignore just the RPA
note, but has the side effect of also making OF ignore the CHRP note
(at least on most pSeries machines).

To solve this we have to set the "ignore me" flag to 0 in the RPA
note.  (We can't just omit the RPA note because that is equivalent to
having an RPA note with default values, and the default values are not
what we want.)  However, then we have to make sure the values in the
zImage's RPA note match up with the values that the kernel supplies
later in prom_init.c with either the ibm,client-architecture-support
call or the process-elf-header call in prom_send_capabilities().

So this sets the "ignore me" flag in the RPA note in addnote to 0, and
adjusts the RPA note values in addnote.c and in prom_init.c to be
consistent with each other and with the values in ibm_architecture_vec.

However, since the wrapper is independent of the kernel, this doesn't
ensure that the notes will stay consistent.  To ensure that, this adds
code to addnote.c so that it can extract the kernel's RPA note from
the kernel binary and put that in the zImage.  To that end, we put the
kernel's fake ELF header (which contains the kernel's RPA note) into
its own section, and arrange for wrapper to pull out that section with
objcopy and pass it to addnote, which then extracts the RPA note from
it and transfers it to the zImage.

      Grant Likely authored 
      Compatible property values in the form linux,<modalias> is not documented
anywhere and using it leaks Linux implementation details into the device
tree data (which is bad).  Remove support for compatible values of this
form.

If any platforms exist which depended on this code (and I don't know of
any), then they can be fixed up by adding legacy translations to the
lookup table in this file.

      powerpc: Fix error path in kernel_thread function · 41c2e949
      Josh Poimboeuf authored 
      The powerpc 32-bit and 64-bit kernel_thread functions don't properly
propagate errors being returned by the clone syscall.  (In the case of
error, the syscall exit code returns a positive errno in r3 and sets
the CR0[SO] bit.)

This patch fixes that by negating r3 if CR0[SO] is set after the syscall.

      powerpc/cell/oprofile: Fix test on overlay_tbl_offset in vma_map · 99c84066
      Roel Kluin authored 
      Offset is unsigned and when an address isn't found in the vma map
vma_map_lookup() returns the vma physical address + 0x10000000.

vma_map_lookup used to return 0xffffffff on a failed lookup, but
a change was made to return the vma physical address + 0x10000000
There are two callers of vam_map_lookup: one of them correctly
deals with this new return value, but the other (below) did not.

      powerpc: Fix no interrupt handling in pata_of_platform · 4538d0ca
      Anton Vorontsov authored 
      When no interrupt is specified the pata_of_platform fills the irq_res
resource with -1, which is wrong to do for two reasons:

1. By definition, 'no irq' should be IRQ 0, not some negative integer;
2. pata_platform checks for irq_res.start > 0, but since irq_res.start
   is unsigned type, the check will be true for `-1'.

      Testing hotplug memory remove has revealed that we can oops in
pseries_lmb_remove().  The incorrect shift causes a NULL pointer
dereference in the page_zone() inline routine.

I have only been able to reproduce the oops on kernels with large pages
enabled.

Tested on Power5 and Power6 with and without large pages enabled.

      powerpc/math-emu: Use kernel generic math-emu code · d2b194ed
      Kumar Gala authored 
      The math emulation code is centered around a set of generic macros that
provide the core of the emulation that are shared by the various
architectures and other projects (like glibc).  Each arch implements its
own sfp-machine.h to specific various arch specific details.

For historic reasons that are now lost the powerpc math-emu code had
its own version of the common headers.  This moves us to using the
kernel generic version and thus getting fixes when those are updated.

Also cleaned up exception/error reporting from the FP emulation functions.

      POWERPC: Allow 32-bit hashed pgtable code to support 36-bit physical · 4ee7084e
      Becky Bruce authored 
      This rearranges a bit of code, and adds support for
36-bit physical addressing for configs that use a
hashed page table.  The 36b physical support is not
enabled by default on any config - it must be
explicitly enabled via the config system.

This patch *only* expands the page table code to accomodate
large physical addresses on 32-bit systems and enables the
PHYS_64BIT config option for 86xx.  It does *not*
allow you to boot a board with more than about 3.5GB of
RAM - for that, SWIOTLB support is also required (and
coming soon).
