Freescale PowerPC SoCs share a number of IP blocks with Freescale ARM/IMX SoCs, FlexCAN, SSI, FEC, eSDHC, USB, etc. There are some effort consolidating those drivers to make them work for both architectures. One outstanding difference between two architectures is ARM/IMX will turn off module clocks during platform initialization for power saving and expects drivers manage clocks using clk API, while PowerPC mostly does not do that, and thus does not always build in clk API. Listing all those driver Kconfig options in "select PPC_CLOCK if" seems not scalable for long term maintenance, and could easily introduce Kconfig recursive dependency. This patch chooses to select PPC_CLOCK unconditionally for FSL_SOC to always build clk API for PowerPC in.

Sigh, I missed to check which architecture Kconfig files actually include the core Kconfig file. There are a few which did not. So we broke them. Instead of adding the includes to those, we are better off to move the include to init/Kconfig like we did already with irqs and others. This does not change anything for the architectures using the old style periodic timer mode. It just solves the build wreckage there. For those architectures which use the clock events infrastructure it moves the include of the core Kconfig file to "General setup" which is a way more logical place than having it at random locations specified by the architecture specific Kconfigs.

There is no point having the NET dependency on the select target, as it forces all users to depend on NET to tell they support BPF_JIT. Move the config option to the bottom of the file - this could be a nice place also for future "selectable" config symbols.

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: NSuzuki K.

When using the "compat" APIs, architectures will generally want to be able to make direct syscalls to msgsnd(), shmctl(), etc., and in the kernel we would want them to be handled directly by compat_sys_xxx() functions, as is true for other compat syscalls. However, for historical reasons, several of the existing compat IPC syscalls do not do this. semctl() expects a pointer to the fourth argument, instead of the fourth argument itself. msgsnd(), msgrcv() and shmat() expect arguments in different order. This change adds an ARCH_WANT_OLD_COMPAT_IPC config option that can be set to preserve this behavior for ports that use it (x86, sparc, powerpc, s390, and mips). No actual semantics are changed for those architectures, and there is only a minimal amount of code refactoring in ipc/compat.c. Newer architectures like tile (and perhaps future architectures such as arm64 and unicore64) should not select this option, and thus can avoid having any IPC-specific code at all in their architecture-specific compat layer. In the same vein, if this option is not selected, IPC_64 mode is assumed, since that's what the <asm-generic> headers expect. The workaround code in "tile" for msgsnd() and msgrcv() is removed with this change; it also fixes the bug that shmat() and semctl() were not being properly handled.

This patch makes powerpc always use SPARSE_IRQ.

Reserve the memory during early boot to preserve CPU state data, HPTE region and RMA (real mode area) region data in case of kernel crash. At the time of crash, powerpc firmware will store CPU state data, HPTE region data and move RMA region data to the reserved memory area. If the firmware-assisted dump fails to reserve the memory, then fallback to existing kexec-based kdump. Most of the code implementation to reserve memory has been adapted from phyp assisted dump implementation written by Linas Vepstas and Manish Ahuja This patch also introduces a config option CONFIG_FA_DUMP for firmware assisted dump feature on Powerpc (ppc64) architecture.

However this should work fine for PPC_47x also, as we only depend on the runtime address and the current TLB XLAT entry for the startup code, which is available in r25.

The following patch implements the dynamic relocation processing for PPC32 kernel. relocate() accepts the target virtual address and relocates the kernel image to the same. Currently the following relocation types are handled : R_PPC_RELATIVE R_PPC_ADDR16_LO R_PPC_ADDR16_HI R_PPC_ADDR16_HA The last 3 relocations in the above list depends on value of Symbol indexed whose index is encoded in the Relocation entry. Hence we need the Symbol Table for processing such relocations. Note: The GNU ld for ppc32 produces buggy relocations for relocation types that depend on symbols. The value of the symbols with STB_LOCAL scope should be assumed to be zero. - Alan Modra Signed-off-by: NSuzuki K.

The current implementation of CONFIG_RELOCATABLE in BookE is based on mapping the page aligned kernel load address to KERNELBASE. This approach however is not enough for platforms, where the TLB page size is large (e.g, 256M on 44x). So we are renaming the RELOCATABLE used currently in BookE to DYNAMIC_MEMSTART to reflect the actual method. The CONFIG_RELOCATABLE for PPC32(BookE) based on processing of the dynamic relocations will be introduced in the later in the patch series. This change would allow the use of the old method of RELOCATABLE for platforms which can afford to enforce the page alignment (platforms with smaller TLB size).

Also, relocate for_each_mem_pfn_range() and helper from mm.h to memblock.h as page_alloc.c would no longer host an alternative implementation. This change is ultimately one to one mapping and shouldn't cause any observable difference; however, after the recent changes, there are some functions which now would fit memblock.c better than page_alloc.c and dependency on HAVE_MEMBLOCK_NODE_MAP instead of HAVE_MEMBLOCK doesn't make much sense on some of them.

Enable hugepages on Freescale BookE processors. This allows the kernel to use huge TLB entries to map pages, which can greatly reduce the number of TLB misses and the amount of TLB thrashing experienced by applications with large memory footprints. Care should be taken when using this on FSL processors, as the number of large TLB entries supported by the core is low (16-64) on current processors. The supported set of hugepage sizes include 4m, 16m, 64m, 256m, and 1g. Page sizes larger than the max zone size are called "gigantic" pages and must be allocated on the command line (and cannot be deallocated). This is currently only fully implemented for Freescale 32-bit BookE processors, but there is some infrastructure in the code for 64-bit BooKE.

cmpxchg() is widely used by lockless code, including NMI-safe lockless code. But on some architectures, the cmpxchg() implementation is not NMI-safe, on these architectures the lockless code may need a spin_trylock_irqsave() based implementation. This patch adds a Kconfig option: ARCH_HAVE_NMI_SAFE_CMPXCHG, so that NMI-safe lockless code can depend on it or provide different implementation according to it. On many architectures, cmpxchg is only NMI-safe for several specific operand sizes. So, ARCH_HAVE_NMI_SAFE_CMPXCHG define in this patch only guarantees cmpxchg is NMI-safe for sizeof(unsigned long).

An implementation of a code generator for BPF programs to speed up packet filtering on PPC64, inspired by Eric Dumazet's x86-64 version. Filter code is generated as an ABI-compliant function in module_alloc()'d mem with stackframe & prologue/epilogue generated if required (simple filters don't need anything more than an li/blr). The filter's local variables, M[], live in registers. Supports all BPF opcodes, although "complicated" loads from negative packet offsets (e.g. SKF_LL_OFF) are not yet supported. There are a couple of further optimisations left for future work; many-pass assembly with branch-reach reduction and a register allocator to push M[] variables into volatile registers would improve the code quality further. This currently supports big-endian 64-bit PowerPC only (but is fairly simple to port to PPC32 or LE!). Enabled in the same way as x86-64: echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/core/bpf_jit_enable Or, enabled with extra debug output: echo 2 > /proc/sys/net/core/bpf_jit_enable Signed-off-by: NMatt Evans <matt@ozlabs.org> Acked-by: NEric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

The 44x code (which is shared by 47x) assumes the available physical memory begins at 0x00000000. This is not necessarily the case in an AMP environment. Support CONFIG_RELOCATABLE for 476 in order to allow the kernel to be loaded into a higher memory range.

This patch adds support for the new "jump label" feature. Unlike x86 and sparc we just merrily patch the code with no locks etc, as far as I know this is safe, but I'm not really sure what the x86/sparc code is protecting against so maybe it's not. I also don't see any reason for us to implement the poke_early() routine, even though sparc does.
