This patch adds support for creating 1:1 mapping for the PPC_47x during a KEXEC. The implementation is similar to that of the PPC440x which is described here : http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/104323/ PPC_47x MMU : The 47x uses Unified TLB 1024 entries, with 4-way associative mapping (4 x 256 entries). The index to be used is calculated by the MMU by hashing the PID, EPN and TS. The software can choose to specify the way by setting bit 0(enable way select) and the way in bits 1-2 in the TLB Word 0. Implementation: The patch erases all the UTLB entries which includes the tlb covering the mapping for our code. The shadow TLB caches the mapping for the running code which helps us to continue the execution until we do isync/rfi. We then create a tmp mapping for the current code in the other address space (TS) and switch to it. Then we create a 1:1 mapping(EPN=RPN) for 0-2GiB in the original address space and switch to the new mapping. TODO: Add SMP support. Signed-off-by: Suzuki K.

Initialize the PID register with kernel pid (0) before we start setting the TLB mapping for KEXEC. Also set the MMUCR[TID] to kernel PID. This was spotted while testing the kexec on ISS for 47x. ISS doesn't return a successful tlbsx for a kernel address with PID set to a user PID. Though the hardware/qemu/simics work fine. This patch is harmless and initializes the PID to 0 (kernel PID) which is usually the case during a normal kernel boot. This would fix the kexec on ISS for 440. I have tested this patch on sequoia board. Signed-off-by: Suzuki K Poulose <suzuki@in.ibm.com> Cc: Josh Boyer <jwboyer@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Josh Boyer <jwboyer@gmail.com>

PowerPC has non standard getregs calls that only dump the GPRs or FPRs and have their arguments reversed. commit e17666ba (ptrace updates & new, better requests) in 2.6.3 deprecated them and introduced more standard versions. It's been about 5 years and I know of no users of the old calls so lets remove them. Signed-off-by: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org> Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

When we get an EEH error we just print a backtrace with dump_stack which is rather cryptic. We really should print something before spewing out the backtrace. Also switch from dump_stack to WARN so we get more information about the fail - what modules were loaded, what process was running etc. This was useful information when debugging a recent EEH subsystem bug. The standard WARN output should also get picked up by monitoring tools like kerneloops. The register dump is of questionable value here but I figured it was better to use something standard and not roll my own.

Older versions of gcc had issues with using -maltivec together with -mcpu of a non altivec capable CPU. We work around it by specifying -mcpu=970, but the logic is complicated. In preparation for adding more -mcpu targets, remove the workaround and just require gcc 4.0 for 64-bit builds.

Remove CONFIG_POWER4_ONLY, the option is badly named and only does two things: - It wraps the MMU segment table code. With feature fixups there is little downside to compiling this in. - It uses the newer mtocrf instruction in various assembly functions. Instead of making this a compile option just do it at runtime via a feature fixup. Signed-off-by: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org> Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

This replaces the old therm_pm72 using the same windfarm infrastructure that was used for other PowerMac G5 models. The fan speeds and sensors should now be visible in the same location in sysfs. The driver is split into separate core modules for PowerMac7,2 (and 7,3) and RackMac3,1, with a lot of the shared code now in the separate sensor and control modules.

This allows those modules to load on PowerMac7,2 PowerMac7,3 and RackMac3,1 and add the sensor name conversion for those machines. This will be used by the corresponding new windfarm modules for those machines. Note that since therm_pm72 is linked first, it will still take priority on those i2c devices if built-in. If using modules it will depend which is loaded first, but you should avoid building therm_pm72 if you are using the new windfarm drivers Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

This causes i2c-powermac to register i2c devices exposed in the device-tree, enabling new-style probing of devices. Note that we prefix the IDs with "MAC," in order to prevent the generic drivers from matching. This is done on purpose as we only want drivers specifically tested/designed to operate on powermacs to match. This removes the special case we had for the AMS driver, and updates the driver's match table instead. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

Add two optimisations to enable_kernel_altivec: - enable_kernel_altivec has already determined if we need to save the previous task's state but we call giveup_altivec in both cases, requiring an extra branch in giveup_altivec. Create giveup_altivec_notask which only turns on the VMX bit in the MSR. - We write the VMX MSR bit each time we call enable_kernel_altivec even it was already set. Check the bit and branch out if we have already set it. The classic case for this is vectored IO where we have to copy multiple buffers to or from userspace. The following testcase was used to confirm this patch improves performance: http://ozlabs.org/~anton/junkcode/copy_to_user.c Since the current breakpoint for using VMX in copy_tofrom_user is 4096 bytes, I'm using buffers of 4096 + 1 cacheline (4224) bytes. A benchmark of 16 entry readvs (-s 16): time copy_to_user -l 4224 -s 16 -i 1000000 completes 5.2% faster on a POWER7 PS700.

At the moment system call entry looks like: crclr so ... mfcr r9 ... std r9,_CCR(r1) commit bd19c899 ([POWERPC] system call micro optimisation) put some space between the crclr and mfcr in order to avoid a stall. There is still a stall seen between the mfcr and std. We can avoid the crclr by doing it in a GPR with rlwinm which gives us more room to better schedule the sequence.

The autofs packet size has had a very unfortunate size problem on x86: because the alignment of 'u64' differs in 32-bit and 64-bit modes, and because the packet data was not 8-byte aligned, the size of the autofsv5 packet structure differed between 32-bit and 64-bit modes despite looking otherwise identical (300 vs 304 bytes respectively). We first fixed that up by making the 64-bit compat mode know about this problem in commit a32744d4 ("autofs: work around unhappy compat problem on x86-64"), and that made a 32-bit 'systemd' work happily on a 64-bit kernel because everything then worked the same way as on a 32-bit kernel. But it turned out that 'automount' had actually known and worked around this problem in user space, so fixing the kernel to do the proper 32-bit compatibility handling actually *broke* 32-bit automount on a 64-bit kernel, because it knew that the packet sizes were wrong and expected those incorrect sizes. As a result, we ended up reverting that compatibility mode fix, and thus breaking systemd again, in commit fcbf94b9. With both automount and systemd doing a single read() system call, and verifying that they get *exactly* the size they expect but using different sizes, it seemed that fixing one of them inevitably seemed to break the other. At one point, a patch I seriously considered applying from Michael Tokarev did a "strcmp()" to see if it was automount that was doing the operation. Ugly, ugly. However, a prettier solution exists now thanks to the packetized pipe mode. By marking the communication pipe as being packetized (by simply setting the O_DIRECT flag), we can always just write the bigger packet size, and if user-space does a smaller read, it will just get that partial end result and the extra alignment padding will simply be thrown away. This makes both automount and systemd happy, since they now get the size they asked for, and the kernel side of autofs simply no longer needs to care - it could pad out the packet arbitrarily. Of course, if there is some *other* user of autofs (please, please, please tell me it ain't so - and we haven't heard of any) that tries to read the packets with multiple writes, that other user will now be broken - the whole point of the packetized mode is that one system call gets exactly one packet, and you cannot read a packet in pieces.
