Defining CONFIG_SPARSE_IRQ enables generic code that gets rid of the static irq_desc array, and replaces it with an array of pointers to irq_descs. It also allows node local allocation of irq_descs, however we currently don't have the information available to do that, so we just allocate them on all on node 0.

Move the default case out of the if, ie. when we're just displaying an irq. And consolidate all the odd cases at the top, ie. printing the header and footer. And in the process cope with sparse irq_descs.

nvram_clear_error_log() calls ppc_md.nvram_write() even when nvram_error_log_index is -1 (invalid). The nvram_write() function does not check for a negative offset.

irqs_disabled_flags is #defined in linux/irqflags.h when CONFIG_TRACE_IRQFLAGS_SUPPORT is enabled. 64 and 32 bit always have CONFIG_TRACE_IRQFLAGS_SUPPORT enabled so just remove irqs_disabled_flags. This fixes the case when someone needs to include both linux/irqflags.h and asm/hw_irq.h.

The hugepage arch code provides a number of hook functions/macros which mirror the functionality of various normal page pte access functions. Various changes in the normal page accessors (in particular BenH's recent changes to the handling of lazy icache flushing and PAGE_EXEC) have caused the hugepage versions to get out of sync with the originals. In some cases, this is a bug, at least on some MMU types. One of the reasons that some hooks were not identical to the normal page versions, is that the fact we're dealing with a hugepage needed to be passed down do use the correct dcache-icache flush function. This patch makes the main flush_dcache_icache_page() function hugepage aware (by checking for the PageCompound flag). That in turn means we can make set_huge_pte_at() just a call to set_pte_at() bringing it back into sync. As a bonus, this lets us remove the hash_huge_page_do_lazy_icache() function, replacing it with a call to the hash_page_do_lazy_icache() function it was based on. Some other hugepage pte access hooks - huge_ptep_get_and_clear() and huge_ptep_clear_flush() - are not so easily unified, but this patch at least brings them back into sync with the current versions of the corresponding normal page functions.

This patch simplifies the logic used to initialize hugepages on powerpc. The somewhat oddly named set_huge_psize() is renamed to add_huge_page_size() and now does all necessary verification of whether it's given a valid hugepage sizes (instead of just some) and instantiates the generic hstate structure (but no more). hugetlbpage_init() now steps through the available pagesizes, checks if they're valid for hugepages by calling add_huge_page_size() and initializes the kmem_caches for the hugepage pagetables. This means we can now eliminate the mmu_huge_psizes array, since we no longer need to pass the sizing information for the pagetable caches from set_huge_psize() into hugetlbpage_init() Determination of the default huge page size is also moved from the hash code into the general hugepage code.

Currently each available hugepage size uses a slightly different pagetable layout: that is, the bottem level table of pointers to hugepages is a different size, and may branch off from the normal page tables at a different level. Every hugepage aware path that needs to walk the pagetables must therefore look up the hugepage size from the slice info first, and work out the correct way to walk the pagetables accordingly. Future hardware is likely to add more possible hugepage sizes, more layout options and more mess. This patch, therefore reworks the handling of hugepage pagetables to reduce this complexity. In the new scheme, instead of having to consult the slice mask, pagetable walking code can check a flag in the PGD/PUD/PMD entries to see where to branch off to hugepage pagetables, and the entry also contains the information (eseentially hugepage shift) necessary to then interpret that table without recourse to the slice mask. This scheme can be extended neatly to handle multiple levels of self-describing "special" hugepage pagetables, although for now we assume only one level exists. This approach means that only the pagetable allocation path needs to know how the pagetables should be set out. All other (hugepage) pagetable walking paths can just interpret the structure as they go. There already was a flag bit in PGD/PUD/PMD entries for hugepage directory pointers, but it was only used for debug. We alter that flag bit to instead be a 0 in the MSB to indicate a hugepage pagetable pointer (normally it would be 1 since the pointer lies in the linear mapping). This means that asm pagetable walking can test for (and punt on) hugepage pointers with the same test that checks for unpopulated page directory entries (beq becomes bge), since hugepage pointers will always be positive, and normal pointers always negative. While we're at it, we get rid of the confusing (and grep defeating) #defining of hugepte_shift to be the same thing as mmu_huge_psizes.

Currently we have a fair bit of rather fiddly code to manage the various kmem_caches used to store page tables of various levels. We generally have two caches holding some combination of PGD, PUD and PMD tables, plus several more for the special hugepage pagetables. This patch cleans this all up by taking a different approach. Rather than the caches being designated as for PUDs or for hugeptes for 16M pages, the caches are simply allocated to be a specific size. Thus sharing of caches between different types/levels of pagetables happens naturally. The pagetable size, where needed, is passed around encoded in the same way as {PGD,PUD,PMD}_INDEX_SIZE; that is n where the pagetable contains 2^n pointers.

Currently, hpte_need_flush() only correctly flushes the given address for normal pages. Callers for hugepages are required to mask the address themselves. But hpte_need_flush() already looks up the page sizes for its own reasons, so this is a rather silly imposition on the callers. This patch alters it to mask based on the pagesize it has looked up itself, and removes the awkward masking code in the hugepage caller.

When running Active Memory Sharing, the Collaborative Memory Manager (CMM) may mark some pages as "loaned" with the hypervisor. Periodically, the CMM will query the hypervisor for a loan request, which is a single signed value. When kexec'ing into a kdump kernel, the CMM driver in the kdump kernel is not aware of the pages the previous kernel had marked as "loaned", so the hypervisor and the CMM driver are out of sync. Fix the CMM driver to handle this scenario by ignoring requests to decrease the number of loaned pages if we don't think we have any pages loaned. Pages that are marked as "loaned" which are not in the balloon will automatically get switched to "active" the next time we touch the page. This also fixes the case where totalram_pages is smaller than min_mem_mb, which can occur during kdump.

Rather than open-coding our own check, use irq_has_action() to check if an irq has an action - ie. is "in use". irq_has_action() doesn't take the descriptor lock, but it shouldn't matter - we're just using it as an indicator that the irq is in use. disable_irq_nosync() will take the descriptor lock before doing anything also.

The irq_desc array consumes quite a lot of space, and for systems that don't need or can't have 512 irqs it's just wasted space. The first 16 are reserved for ISA, so the minimum of 32 is really 16 - and no one has asked for more than 512 so leave that as the maximum.

The CHRP code has some fishy timer based code to scan the RTAS event log, which uses a 1KB stack buffer and doesn't even use the results. The pSeries code as a nicer daemon that allows userspace to read the event log and basically uses the same RTAS interface This patch moves rtasd.c out of platform/pseries and makes it usable by CHRP, after removing the old crufty event log mechanism in there. The nvram logging part of the daemon is still only available on 64-bit since the underlying nvram management routines aren't currently shared.

Just as with kexec, hibernation may fail even on well-tested platforms: some PCI device, a driver of which doesn't play well with hibernation, is enough to break resuming. Hibernation code is not much platform dependent, and hiding features only because these were not verified on a particular hardware is counterproductive: we just prevent the features from being widely tested. For example, with this patch I just tested hibernation on a MPC83xx board, and it works quite well, modulo a few drivers that need some fixing. So, let's make it possible to select hibernation support for all PowerPCs, then let's wait for any possible bug reports, and actually fix (or just collect ;-) the bugs instead of hiding them. If some platforms really can't stand hibernation, we can make a blacklist, with proper comments why exactly hibernation doesn't work, whether it is possible to fix, and what needs to be done to fix it. CONFIG_HIBERNATION is still =n by default, so the commit doesn't change anything apart from ability to set it to =y. I'm not sure if EXPERIMENTAL dependency is needed, I'd rather not add it for a few reasons: 1) It doesn't matter much, for distro kernels user has no clue that some feature is experimental. Majority of defconfigs enable EXPERIMENTAL anyway (90 vs. 4, which, btw, means that EXPERIMENTAL is overused in Kconfigs); 2) EXPERIMENTAL is a good thing for features that change default behaviour of a kernel, while for hibernation user has to explicitly issue 'echo disk > /sys/power/state' to trigger any hibernation bugs; 3) Per init/Kconfig, EXPERIMENTAL is a good thing to scare and discourage users from 'widespread use of a feature', while we want to encourage that use.
