* ppc: Remove duplicate exports of __down, __up etc.Paul Mackerras2006-03-271-4/+0
| | | | | | | | __down, __down_interruptible and __up are defined and exported in arch/powerpc/kernel/semaphore.c, and used from there for ARCH=ppc, so there is no need to export them in arch/ppc/kernel/ppc_ksyms.c. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
* powerpc: Don't compile in arch/ppc/kernel for 32-bit ARCH=powerpcPaul Mackerras2006-03-271-9/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | All of the things needed for 32-bit ARCH=powerpc builds have now moved to arch/powerpc/kernel, so we don't need to go down into arch/ppc/kernel any more, and we can remove the CONFIG_PPC_MERGE conditional from arch/ppc/kernel/Makefile. There were two files still referenced in the merge section of arch/ppc/kernel/Makefile: ppc-stub.o, depending on CONFIG_KGDB, and dma-mapping.o, depending on CONFIG_NOT_COHERENT_CACHE. None of the platforms currently in ARCH=powerpc have caches that aren't coherent with DMA, but when we do get one we'll move dma-mapping.c over. As for CONFIG_KGDB, none of the Kconfig files in the tree define it, so I'll let it languish for now. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

* powerpc: Unify the 32 and 64 bit idle loopsPaul Mackerras2006-03-275-441/+7
| | | | | | | | | | This unifies the 32-bit (ARCH=ppc and ARCH=powerpc) and 64-bit idle loops. It brings over the concept of having a ppc_md.power_save function from 32-bit to ARCH=powerpc, which lets us get rid of native_idle(). With this we will also be able to simplify the idle handling for pSeries and cell. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
* [PATCH] more for_each_cpu() conversionsAndrew Morton2006-03-231-6/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When we stop allocating percpu memory for not-possible CPUs we must not touch the percpu data for not-possible CPUs at all. The correct way of doing this is to test cpu_possible() or to use for_each_cpu(). This patch is a kernel-wide sweep of all instances of NR_CPUS. I found very few instances of this bug, if any. But the patch converts lots of open-coded test to use the preferred helper macros.

In other words, the noerror behaviour would apply to the next system call where we had to reschedule or deliver a signal, which is not necessarily the current system call. * 32-bit wasn't doing the call to ptrace_notify in the syscall exit path when the _TIF_SINGLESTEP bit was set. * _TIF_RESTOREALL was in both _TIF_USER_WORK_MASK and _TIF_PERSYSCALL_MASK, which is odd since _TIF_RESTOREALL is only set by system calls. I took it out of _TIF_USER_WORK_MASK. * On 64-bit, _TIF_RESTOREALL wasn't causing the non-volatile registers to be restored (unless perhaps a signal was delivered or the syscall was traced or single-stepped). Thus the non-volatile registers weren't restored on exit from a signal handler. We probably got away with it mostly because signal handlers written in C wouldn't alter the non-volatile registers. * On 32-bit I simplified the code and made it more like 64-bit by making the syscall exit path jump to ret_from_except to handle preemption and signal delivery. * 32-bit was calling do_signal unnecessarily when _TIF_RESTOREALL was set - but I think because of that 32-bit was actually restoring the non-volatile registers on exit from a signal handler. * I changed the order of enabling interrupts and saving the non-volatile registers before calling do_syscall_trace_leave; now we enable interrupts first.

* [PATCH] kdump: dynamic per cpu allocation of memory for saving cpu registersVivek Goyal2006-01-101-6/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | - In case of system crash, current state of cpu registers is saved in memory in elf note format. So far memory for storing elf notes was being allocated statically for NR_CPUS. - This patch introduces dynamic allocation of memory for storing elf notes. It uses alloc_percpu() interface. This should lead to better memory usage. - Introduced based on Andi Kleen's and Eric W. Biederman's suggestions. - This patch also moves memory allocation for elf notes from architecture dependent portion to architecture independent portion. Now crash_notes is architecture independent. The whole idea is that size of memory to be allocated per cpu (MAX_NOTE_BYTES) can be architecture dependent and allocation of this memory can be architecture independent.

* [PATCH] powerpc: Unify udbg (#2)Benjamin Herrenschmidt2006-01-091-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch unifies udbg for both ppc32 and ppc64 when building the merged achitecture. xmon now has a single "back end". The powermac udbg stuff gets enriched with some ADB capabilities and btext output. In addition, the early_init callback is now called on ppc32 as well, approx. in the same order as ppc64 regarding device-tree manipulations. The init sequences of ppc32 and ppc64 are getting closer, I'll unify them in a later patch. For now, you can force udbg to the scc using "sccdbg" or to btext using "btextdbg" on powermacs. I'll implement a cleaner way of forcing udbg output to something else than the autodetected OF output device in a later patch.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This moves the discovery of legacy serial ports to a separate file, makes it common to ppc32 and ppc64, and reworks it to use the new OF address translators to get to the ports early. This new version can also detect some PCI serial cards using legacy chips and will probably match those discovered port with the default console choice. Only ppc64 gets udbg still yet, unifying udbg isn't finished yet. It also adds some speed-probing code to udbg so that the default console can come up at the same speed it was set to by the firmware.

* [PATCH] powerpc: Merge kexecMichael Ellerman2006-01-091-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch merges, to some extent, the PPC32 and PPC64 kexec implementations. We adopt the PPC32 approach of having ppc_md callbacks for the kexec functions. The current PPC64 implementation becomes the "default" implementation for PPC64 which platforms can select if they need no special treatment. I've added these default callbacks to pseries/maple/cell/powermac, this means iSeries no longer supports kexec - but it never worked anyway. I've renamed PPC32's machine_kexec_simple to default_machine_kexec, inline with PPC64. Judging by the comments it might be better named machine_kexec_non_of, or something, but at the moment it's the only implementation for PPC32 so it's the "default". Kexec requires machine_shutdown(), which is in machine_kexec.c on PPC32, but we already have in setup-common.c on powerpc. All this does is call ppc_md.nvram_sync, which only powermac implements, so instead make machine_shutdown a ppc_md member and have it call core99_nvram_sync directly on powermac. I've also stuck relocate_kernel.S into misc_32.S for powerpc. Built for ARCH=ppc, and 32 & 64 bit ARCH=powerpc, with KEXEC=y/n. Booted on P5 LPAR and successfully kexec'ed.

* [PATCH] ppc32: set smp_tb_synchronized on UP with SMP kernelJohannes Berg2005-12-121-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | ppc32 kernel, when built with CONFIG_SMP and booted on a single CPU machine, will not properly set smp_tb_synchronized, thus causing gettimeofday() to not use the HW timebase and to be limited to jiffy resolution. This, among others, causes unacceptable pauses when launching X.org.

* [PATCH] ppc: fix floating point register corruptionPaolo Galtieri2005-11-291-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I recently discovered a bug on PPC which causes the floating point registers to get corrupted when CONFIG_PREEMPT=y. The problem occurred while running a multi threaded Java application that does floating point. The problem could be reproduced in anywhere from 2 to 6 hours. With the patch I have included below it ran for over a week without failure.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch merges align.c, the result isn't quite what was in ppc64 nor what was in ppc32 :) It should implement all the functionalities of both though. Kumar, since you played with that in the past, I suppose you have some test cases for verifying that it works properly before I dig out the 601 machine ? :) Since it's likely that I won't be able to test all scenario, code inspection is much welcome.
