On ppc64, we independently define VMALLOCBASE and VMALLOC_START to be the same thing: the start of the vmalloc() area at 0xd000000000000000. VMALLOC_START is used much more widely, including in generic code, so this patch gets rid of the extraneous VMALLOCBASE. This does require moving the definitions of region IDs from page_64.h to pgtable.h, but they don't clearly belong in the former rather than the latter, anyway. While we're moving them, clean up the definitions of the REGION_IDs: - Abolish REGION_SIZE, it was only used once, to define REGION_MASK anyway - Define the specific region ids in terms of the REGION_ID() macro. - Define KERNEL_REGION_ID in terms of PAGE_OFFSET rather than KERNELBASE. It amounts to the same thing, but conceptually this is about the region of the linear mapping (which starts at PAGE_OFFSET) rather than of the kernel text itself (which is at KERNELBASE).

The patch enabling the new G5's with U4 broke initialization of the DART driver, causing it to trigger a BUG_ON for a case that is actually valid. This patch fixes it: Signed-off-by:

This adds some very basic support for the new machines, including the Quad G5 (tested), and other new dual core based machines and iMac G5 iSight (untested). This is still experimental ! There is no thermal control yet, there is no proper handing of MSIs, etc.. but it boots, I have all 4 cores up on my machine. Compared to the previous version of this patch, this one adds DART IOMMU support for the U4 chipset and thus should work fine on setups with more than 2Gb of RAM. Signed-off-by:

There is code in the RPAPHP directory that is identical to this routine; I'll be removing that code in an upcoming patch, but this patch is needed to expose the function to make it callable. Signed-off-by:

The pre-parsed addrs/n_addrs fields in struct device_node are finally gone. Remove the dodgy heuristics that did that parsing at boot and remove the fields themselves since we now have a good replacement with the new OF parsing code. This patch also fixes a bunch of drivers to use the new code instead, so that at least pmac32, pseries, iseries and g5 defconfigs build. Signed-off-by:

We used to print a NUMA cpu summary at boot before the hotplug cpu code was added. This has been useful for catching machine configuration as well as firmware bugs in the past. This patch restores that functionality. An example of the output is: Node 0 CPUs: 0-7 Node 1 CPUs: 8-15 Signed-off-by:

/dev/nvram uses the user-provided read/write size for kmalloc, which fails, if a large number is passed. This will always use a single page at most, which can be expected to succeed. Signed-off-by:

We currently crash in the fedora installer because the keyboard driver tries to access I/O space that is not there on our hardware. This uses the same solution as powermac by just marking all legacy i/o as invalid. Signed-off-by:

So far, the iommu code was hardwired to a linear mapping between 0x20000000 and 0x40000000, so it could only support 512MB of RAM. This patch still keeps the linear mapping, but looks for proper ibm,dma-window properties to set up larger windows, this makes the maximum supported RAM size 2GB. If there is anything unusual about the dma-window properties, we fall back to the old behavior. We also support switching off the iommu completely now with the regular iommu=off command line option.

I can't really get a conclusive answer from the firmware people what to check for, so I just try scanning for anything that starts with "IBM,CPB", which should be correct for all hardware produced so far and for systemsim. Signed-off-by:

Handling mailbox interrupts was broken in multiple respects, the combination of which was hiding the bugs most of the time. - The ibox interrupt mask was open initially even though there are no waiters on a newly created SPU. - Acknowledging the mailbox interrupt did not work because it is level triggered and the mailbox data is never retrieved from inside the interrupt handler. - The interrupt handler delivered interrupts with a disabled mask if another interrupt is triggered for the same class but a different mask. - The poll function did not enable the interrupt if it had not been enabled, so we might run into the poll timeout if none of the other bugs saved us and no signal was delivered. We probably still have a similar problem with blocking read/write on mailbox files, but that will result in extra wakeup in the worst case, not in incorrect behaviour. Signed-off-by:

This patch reduces lock complexity of SPU scheduler, particularly for involuntary preemptive switches. As a result the new code does a better job of mapping the highest priority tasks to SPUs. Lock complexity is reduced by using the system default workqueue to perform involuntary saves. In this way we avoid nasty lock ordering problems that the previous code had. A "minimum timeslice" for SPU contexts is also introduced. The intent here is to avoid thrashing. While the new scheduler does a better job at prioritization it still does nothing for fairness.

This patch makes it easier to preempt an SPU context by having the scheduler hold ctx->state_sema for much shorter periods of time. As part of this restructuring, the control logic for the "run" operation is moved from arch/ppc64/kernel/spu_base.c to fs/spufs/file.c. Of course the base retains "bottom half" handlers for class{0,1} irqs. The new run loop will re-acquire an SPU if preempted. From: Mark Nutter <mnutter@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: -

With the new rules for reserved pages, the spufs now needs working page reference counting. I should probably look into converting to vm_insert_page, but for now this patch makes spufs work again. Signed-off-by:

Milton has proposed that we should support a "linux,usable-memory" property on memory nodes which describes, in preference to "reg", the regions of memory Linux should use. This facility is required for kdump to inform the second kernel which memory it should use. Signed-off-by:

Implementing the machine_crash_shutdown which will be called by crash_kexec (called in case of a panic, sysrq etc.). Disable the interrupts, shootdown cpus using debugger IPI and collect regs for all CPUs. elfcorehdr= specifies the location of elf core header stored by the crashed kernel. This command line option will be passed by the kexec-tools to capture kernel. savemaxmem= specifies the actual memory size that the first kernel has and this value will be used for dumping in the capture kernel. This command line option will be passed by the kexec-tools to capture kernel. Signed-off-by:

There's a few places where we need to fix things up for the kernel to work if it's linked at 32MB: - platforms/powermac/smp.c To start secondary cpus on pmac we patch the reset vector, which is fine. Except if we're above 32MB we don't have enough bits for an absolute branch, it needs to relative. - kernel/head_64.s - A few branches in the cpu hold code need to load the full target address and do a bctr. - after_prom_start needs to load PHYSICAL_START as the dest address, not 0. - The exception prolog needs to load the low word of the target adddress, not just the low halfword. - Fixup handling of the initial stab address. - kernel/setup_64.c smp_release_cpus() needs to write 1 to the spinloop flag near 0, not 32 MB.

Regardless of where the kernel's linked we always get interrupts at low addresses. This patch creates a trampoline in the first 3 pages of memory, where interrupts land, and patches those addresses to jump into the real kernel code at PHYSICAL_START. We also need to reserve the trampoline code and a bit more in prom.c Signed-off-by:

The fwnmi vectors can be anywhere < 32 MB, so we need to use a trampoline for them. The kdump kernel will register the trampoline addresses, which will then jump up to the real code above 32 MB. Signed-off-by:

This patch adds a Kconfig variable, CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP, which configures the built kernel for use as a Kdump kernel. Currently "all" this involves is changing the value of KERNELBASE to 32 MB. Signed-off-by:
