* KVM: PPC: Remove 440 supportAlexander Graf2014-07-282-43/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | The 440 target hasn't been properly functioning for a few releases and before I was the only one who fixes a very serious bug that indicates to me that nobody used it before either. Furthermore KVM on 440 is slow to the extent of unusable. We don't have to carry along completely unused code. Remove 440 and give us one less thing to worry about.

It got a bit delayed in part because I wasn't paying attention, and in part because I discovered I had a core PCI change without a PCI maintainer ack in it. Bjorn eventually agreed it was ok to merge it though we'll probably improve it later and I didn't want to rebase to add his ack. There is going to be a bit more next week, essentially fixes that I still want to sort through and test. The biggest item this time is the support to build the ppc64 LE kernel with our new v2 ABI. We previously supported v2 userspace but the kernel itself was a tougher nut to crack. This is now sorted mostly thanks to Anton and Rusty. We also have a fairly big series from Cedric that add support for 64-bit LE zImage boot wrapper. This was made harder by the fact that traditionally our zImage wrapper was always 32-bit, but our new LE toolchains don't really support 32-bit anymore (it's somewhat there but not really "supported") so we didn't want to rely on it. This meant more churn that just endian fixes. This brings some more LE bits as well, such as the ability to run in LE mode without a hypervisor (ie. under OPAL firmware) by doing the right OPAL call to reinitialize the CPU to take HV interrupts in the right mode and the usual pile of endian fixes. There's another series from Gavin adding EEH improvements (one day we *will* have a release with less than 20 EEH patches, I promise!). Another highlight is the support for the "Split core" functionality on P8 by Michael. This allows a P8 core to be split into "sub cores" of 4 threads which allows the subcores to run different guests under KVM (the HW still doesn't support a partition per thread). And then the usual misc bits and fixes ..." [ Further delayed by gmail deciding that BenH is a dirty spammer.

* powerpc/perf: Core EBB support for 64-bit book3sMichael Ellerman2013-07-012-0/+139
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add support for EBB (Event Based Branches) on 64-bit book3s. See the included documentation for more details. EBBs are a feature which allows the hardware to branch directly to a specified user space address when a PMU event overflows. This can be used by programs for self-monitoring with no kernel involvement in the inner loop. Most of the logic is in the generic book3s code, primarily to avoid a proliferation of PMU callbacks.

* powerpc/tm: Fix userspace stack corruption on signal delivery for active ↵Michael Neuling2013-06-011-0/+19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | transactions When in an active transaction that takes a signal, we need to be careful with the stack. It's possible that the stack has moved back up after the tbegin. The obvious case here is when the tbegin is called inside a function that returns before a tend. In this case, the stack is part of the checkpointed transactional memory state. If we write over this non transactionally or in suspend, we are in trouble because if we get a tm abort, the program counter and stack pointer will be back at the tbegin but our in memory stack won't be valid anymore. To avoid this, when taking a signal in an active transaction, we need to use the stack pointer from the checkpointed state, rather than the speculated state. This ensures that the signal context (written tm suspended) will be written below the stack required for the rollback. The transaction is aborted becuase of the treclaim, so any memory written between the tbegin and the signal will be rolled back anyway. For signals taken in non-TM or suspended mode, we use the normal/non-checkpointed stack pointer.

* powerpc/tm: Abort on emulation and alignment faultsMichael Neuling2013-06-011-2/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If we are emulating an instruction inside an active user transaction that touches memory, the kernel can't emulate it as it operates in transactional suspend context. We need to abort these transactions and send them back to userspace for the hardware to rollback. We can service these if the user transaction is in suspend mode, since the kernel will operate in the same suspend context. This adds a check to all alignment faults and to specific instruction emulations (only string instructions for now). If the user process is in an active (non-suspended) transaction, we abort the transaction go back to userspace allowing the HW to roll back the transaction and tell the user of the failure. This also adds new tm abort cause codes to report the reason of the persistent error to the user.

* powerpc/ptrace: Add DAWR debug feature info for userspaceMichael Neuling2013-04-181-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This adds new debug feature information so that the DAWR can be identified by userspace tools like GDB. Unfortunately the DAWR doesn't sit nicely into the current description that ptrace provides to userspace via struct ppc_debug_info. It doesn't allow for specifying that only some ranges are possible or even the end alignment constraints (DAWR only allows 512 byte wide ranges which can't cross a 512 byte boundary). After talking to Edjunior Machado (GDB ppc developer), it was decided this was the best approach. Just mark it as debug feature DAWR and tools like GDB can internally decide the constraints.

* powerpc/hw-breakpoint: Use generic hw-breakpoint interfaces for new PPC ↵K.Prasad2012-11-151-0/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ptrace flags PPC_PTRACE_GETHWDBGINFO, PPC_PTRACE_SETHWDEBUG and PPC_PTRACE_DELHWDEBUG are PowerPC specific ptrace flags that use the watchpoint register. While they are targeted primarily towards BookE users, user-space applications such as GDB have started using them for BookS too. This patch enables the use of generic hardware breakpoint interfaces for these new flags. Apart from the usual benefits of using generic hw-breakpoint interfaces, these changes allow debuggers (such as GDB) to use a common set of ptrace flags for their watchpoint needs and allow more precise breakpoint specification (length of the variable can be specified).

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Extends FSL EHCI platform driver glue layer to support MPC5121 USB controllers. MPC5121 Rev 2.0 silicon EHCI registers are in big endian format. The appropriate flags are set using the information in the platform data structure. MPC83xx system interface registers are not available on MPC512x, so the access to these registers is isolated in MPC512x case. Furthermore the USB controller clocks must be enabled before 512x register accesses which is done by providing platform specific init callback. The MPC512x internal USB PHY doesn't provide supply voltage. For boards using different power switches allow specifying DRVVBUS and PWR_FAULT signal polarity of the MPC5121 internal PHY using "fsl,invert-drvvbus" and "fsl,invert-pwr-fault" properties in the device tree USB nodes.

| * powerpc/5200/i2c: improve i2c bus error recoveryAlbrecht Dreß2010-08-011-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch improves the recovery of the MPC's I2C bus from errors like bus hangs resulting in timeouts: 1. make the bus timeout configurable, as it depends on the bus clock and the attached slave chip(s); default is still 1 second; 2. detect any of the cases indicated by the CF, BB and RXAK MSR flags if a timeout occurs, and add a missing (required) MAL reset; 3. use a more reliable method to fixup the bus if a hang has been detected. The sequence is sent 9 times which seems to be necessary if a slave "misses" more than one clock cycle. For 400 kHz bus speed, the fixup is also ~70us (81us vs. 150us) faster. Tested on a custom Lite5200b derived board, with a Dallas RTC, AD sensors and NXP IO expander chips attached to the i2c. Changes vs. v1: - use improved bus fixup sequence for all chips (not only the 5200) - calculate real clock from defaults if no clock is given in the device tree - better description (I hope) of the changes. I didn't split the changes in this file into three parts as recommended by Grant, as they actually belong together (i.e. they address one single problem, just in three places of one single source file).

* | Documentation: update broken web addresses.Justin P. Mattock2010-08-041-1/+1
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Below you will find an updated version from the original series bunching all patches into one big patch updating broken web addresses that are located in Documentation/* Some of the addresses date as far far back as 1995 etc... so searching became a bit difficult, the best way to deal with these is to use web.archive.org to locate these addresses that are outdated. Now there are also some addresses pointing to .spec files some are located, but some(after searching on the companies site)where still no where to be found. In this case I just changed the address to the company site this way the users can contact the company and they can locate them for the users. Signed-off-by: Justin P.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | By setting "reset_type" to one of the following values, the default software reset mechanism may be overidden.

| * fsldma: simplify IRQ probing and handlingIra Snyder2010-02-021-0/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The IRQ probing is needlessly complex. All off the 83xx device trees in arch/powerpc/boot/dts/ specify 5 interrupts per DMA controller: one for the controller, and one for each channel. These interrupts are all attached to the same IRQ line. This causes an interesting situation if two channels interrupt at the same time. The per-controller handler will handle the first channel, and the per-channel handler will handle the remaining channels. Instead of this mess, we fix the bug in the per-controller handler, and make it handle all channels that generated an interrupt. When a per-controller handler is specified in the device tree, we prefer to use the shared handler instead of the per-channel handler. The 85xx/86xx controllers do not have a per-controller interrupt, and instead use a per-channel interrupt. This behavior has not been changed. Signed-off-by: Ira W.
