The arch/powerpc/include/asm/linkage.h is being unintentionally exported in the kernel headers since commit e1b5bb6d (consolidate cond_syscall and SYSCALL_ALIAS declarations) when arch/powerpc/include/uapi/asm/linkage.h was deleted but the header-y not removed from the Kbuild file. This happens because Makefile.headersinst still checks the old asm/ directory if the specified header doesn't exist in the uapi directory. The asm/linkage.h shouldn't ever have been exported anyway. No other arch does and it doesn't contain anything useful to userland, so remove the header-y line from the Kbuild file which triggers the export.

This reverts commit b2b5efcf. This code was way too board specific, there are quirks as to how the PERST line is wired on different boards, we'll have to revisit this using/creating appropriate firmware interfaces. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

I am seeing an issue where a CPU running perf eventually hangs. Traces show timer interrupts happening every 4 seconds even when a userspace task is running on the CPU. /proc/timer_list also shows pending hrtimers have not run in over an hour, including the scheduler. Looking closer, decrementers_next_tb is getting set to 0xffffffffffffffff, and at that point we will never take a timer interrupt again. In __timer_interrupt() we set decrementers_next_tb to 0xffffffffffffffff and rely on ->event_handler to update it: *next_tb = ~(u64)0; if (evt->event_handler) evt->event_handler(evt); In this case ->event_handler is hrtimer_interrupt. This will eventually call back through the clockevents code with the next event to be programmed: static int decrementer_set_next_event(unsigned long evt, struct clock_event_device *dev) { /* Don't adjust the decrementer if some irq work is pending */ if (test_irq_work_pending()) return 0; __get_cpu_var(decrementers_next_tb) = get_tb_or_rtc() + evt; If irq work came in between these two points, we will return before updating decrementers_next_tb and we never process a timer interrupt again. This looks to have been introduced by 0215f7d8 (powerpc: Fix races with irq_work). Fix it by removing the early exit and relying on code later on in the function to force an early decrementer: /* We may have raced with new irq work */ if (test_irq_work_pending()) set_dec(1); Signed-off-by: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org> Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org # 3.14+ Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

Resetting root port has more stuff to do than that for PCIe switch ports and we should have resetting root port done in firmware instead of the kernel itself.

This series adds support for building the powerpc 64-bit LE kernel using the new ABI v2. We already supported running ABI v2 userspace programs but this adds support for building the kernel itself using the new ABI.

This patch adds an option to enable a work around for an icache bug on 476 that can cause execution of stale instructions when falling through pages (IBM errata #46). It requires a recent version of binutils which supports the --ppc476-workaround option. The work around enables the appropriate linker options and ensures that all module output sections are aligned to 4K page boundaries. The work around is only required when building modules.

The PPC476GTR SoC supports message signalled interrupts (MSI) by writing to special addresses within the High Speed Transfer Assist (HSTA) module. This patch adds support for PCI MSI with a new system device. The DMA window is also updated to allow access to the entire 42-bit address range to allow PCI devices write access to the HSTA module.

Unaligned stores take alignment exceptions on POWER7 running in little-endian. This is a dumb little-endian base memcpy that prevents unaligned stores. Once booted the feature fixup code switches over to the VMX copy loops (which are already endian safe). The question is what we do before that switch over. The base 64bit memcpy takes alignment exceptions on POWER7 so we can't use it as is. Fixing the causes of alignment exception would slow it down, because we'd need to ensure all loads and stores are aligned either through rotate tricks or bytewise loads and stores. Either would be bad for all other 64bit platforms.

If we do a treclaim and we are not in TM suspend mode, it results in a TM bad thing (ie. a 0x700 program check). Similarly if we do a trechkpt and we have an active transaction or TEXASR Failure Summary (FS) is not set, we also take a TM bad thing. This should never happen, but if it does (ie. a kernel bug), the cause is almost impossible to debug as the GPR state is mostly userspace and hence we don't get a call chain. This adds some checks in these cases case a BUG_ON() (in asm) in case we ever hit these cases. It moves the register saving around to preserve r1 till later also.

Implement a method named pnv_get_proc_freq(unsigned int cpu) which returns the current clock rate on the 'cpu' in Hz to be reported in /proc/cpuinfo. This method uses the value reported by cpufreq when such a value is sane. Otherwise it falls back to old way of reporting the clockrate, i.e. ppc_proc_freq. Set the ppc_md.get_proc_freq() hook to pnv_get_proc_freq() on the PowerNV platform. Signed-off-by: Gautham R.

Currently, the code in setup-common.c for powerpc assumes that all clock rates are same in a smp system. This value is cached in the variable named ppc_proc_freq and is the value that is reported in /proc/cpuinfo. However on the PowerNV platform, the clock rate is same only across the threads of the same core. Hence the value that is reported in /proc/cpuinfo is incorrect on PowerNV platforms. We need a better way to query and report the correct value of the processor clock in /proc/cpuinfo. The patch achieves this by creating a machdep_call named get_proc_freq() which is expected to returns the frequency in Hz. The code in show_cpuinfo() can invoke this method to display the correct clock rate on platforms that have implemented this method. On the other powerpc platforms it can use the value cached in ppc_proc_freq. Signed-off-by: Gautham R. Shenoy <ego@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

This patch adds support to legacy serial for UARTS with shifted registers. The MVME5100 Single Board Computer is a PowerPC platform that has 16550 style UARTS with register addresses that are 16 bytes apart (shifted by 4). Commit 30925748 "powerpc: Cleanup udbg_16550 and add support for LPC PIO-only UARTs" added support to udbg_16550 for shifted registers by adding a "stride" parameter to the initialisation operations for Programmed IO and Memory Mapped IO. As a consequence it is now possible to use the services of legacy serial to provide early serial console messages for the MVME5100. An added benefit of this is that the serial console will always be "ttyS0" irrespective of whether the computer is fitted with extra PCI 8250 interface boards or not. I have tested this patch using the four PowerPC platforms available to me: MVME5100 - shifted registers, SAM440EP - unshifted registers, MPC8349 - unshifted registers, MVME4100 - unshifted registers.

The code is only slightly modified : entry points now use the FIXUP_ENDIAN trampoline to switch endian order. The 32bit wrapper is kept for big endian kernels and 64bit is enforced for little endian kernels with a PPC64_BOOT_WRAPPER config option. The linker script is generated using the kernel preprocessor flags to make use of the CONFIG_* definitions and the wrapper script is modified to take into account the new elf64ppc format. Finally, the zImage file is compiled as a position independent executable (-pie) which makes it loadable at any address by the firmware.

This patch defines a 'prom' routine similar to 'enter_prom' in the kernel. The difference is in the MSR which is built before entering prom. Big endian order is enforced as in the kernel but 32bit mode is not. It prepares ground for the next patches which will introduce Little endian order.

This patch fixes warnings when the wrapper is compiled in 64bit and updates the boot wrapper code related to prom to converge with the kernel code in prom_init. This should make the review of changes easier. The kernel has a different number of possible arguments (10) when entering prom. There does not seem to be any good reason to have 12 in the wrapper, so the patch changes this value to args[10] in the prom_args struct.
