This splits off several pieces of code that parse the ibm,dynamic-reconfiguration-memory node of the device tree into separate helper routines. This is in preparation for the next commit that will use these helper routines. There are no functional changes in this patch.

This updates the device tree manipulation routines so that memory add/remove of lmbs represented under the ibm,dynamic-reconfiguration-memory node of the device tree invokes the hotplug notifier chain. This change is needed because of the change in the way memory is represented under the ibm,dynamic-reconfiguration-memory node. All lmbs are described in the ibm,dynamic-memory property instead of having a separate node for each lmb as in previous device tree layouts. This requires the update_node() routine to check for updates to the ibm,dynamic-memory property and invoke the hotplug notifier chain. This also updates the pseries hotplug notifier to be able to gather information for lmbs represented under the ibm,dynamic-reconfiguration-memory node and have the lmbs added/removed.

Use the base address of the lmb to derive the starting page frame number instead of trying to extract it from the drc index of the lmb. The drc index should not be used for this as it will, and did, break. Until this point, systems that have had memory represented in the device tree with a node for each lmb the drc index would (luckily) closely track the base address of the lmb. For example a lmb with a drc index of 8000000a would have a base address of a0000000. This correlation allowed the current code to derive the starting page frame number from the drc inddex Device tree layouts where lmbs are represented under the ibm,dynamic-reconfiguration-memory node in the ibm,dynamic-memory property do not have this correlation between the drc index and base address of the lmb.

Allow the phandle passed to the /proc/ppc64/ofdt file to be specified in formats other than decimal. This allows us to easily specify phandle values in hex that would otherwise appear as negative integers. This is an issue on systems where the value of /proc/device-tree/ibm,dynamic-reconfiguration-memory.ibm,phandle is fffffff9. Having to pass this to the ofdt file as a string results in a large negative number, and simple_strtoul() does not handle negative numbers.

To allow for a single kernel image on e500 v1/v2/mc we need to fixup lwsync at runtime. On e500v1/v2 lwsync causes an illop so we need to patch up the code. We default to 'sync' since that is always safe and if the cpu is capable we will replace 'sync' with 'lwsync'. We introduce CPU_FTR_LWSYNC as a way to determine at runtime if this is needed. This flag could be moved elsewhere since we dont really use it for the normal CPU_FTR purpose. Finally we only store the relative offset in the fixup section to keep it as small as possible rather than using a full fixup_entry.

Currently when a 32 bit process is exec'd on a powerpc 64 bit host the value in the top three bytes of the personality is clobbered. patch adds a check in the SET_PERSONALITY macro that will carry all the values in the top three bytes across the exec. These three bytes currently carry flags to disable address randomisation, limit the address space, force zeroing of an mmapped page, etc. Should an application set any of these bits they will be maintained and honoured on homogeneous environment but discarded and ignored on a heterogeneous environment. So if an application requires all mmapped pages to be initialised to zero and a wrapper is used to setup the personality and exec the target, these flags will remain set on an all 32 or all 64 bit envrionment, but they will be lost in the exec on a mixed 32/64 bit environment. Losing these bits means that the same application would behave differently in different environments. Tested on a POWER5+ machine with 64bit kernel and a mixed 64/32 bit user space.

The implementation of huge_ptep_set_wrprotect() directly calls ptep_set_wrprotect() to mark a hugepte write protected. However this call is not appropriate on ppc64 kernels as this is a small page only implementation. This can lead to the hash not being flushed correctly when a mapping is being converted to COW, allowing processes to continue using the original copy. Currently huge_ptep_set_wrprotect() unconditionally calls ptep_set_wrprotect(). This is fine on ppc32 kernels as this call is generic. On 64 bit this is implemented as: pte_update(mm, addr, ptep, _PAGE_RW, 0); On ppc64 this last parameter is the page size and is passed directly on to hpte_need_flush(): hpte_need_flush(mm, addr, ptep, old, huge); And this directly affects the page size we pass to flush_hash_page(): flush_hash_page(vaddr, rpte, psize, ssize, 0); As this changes the way the hash is calculated we will flush the wrong pages, potentially leaving live hashes to the original page. Move the definition of huge_ptep_set_wrprotect() to the 32/64 bit specific headers.

由 Andrew Lewis 提交于
On PowerPC processors with non-coherent cache architectures the DMA subsystem calls invalidate_dcache_range() before performing a DMA read operation. If the address and length of the DMA buffer are not aligned to a cache-line boundary this can result in memory outside of the DMA buffer being invalidated in the cache. If this memory has an uncommitted store then the data will be lost and a subsequent read of that address will result in an old value being returned from main memory. Only when the DMA buffer starts on a cache-line boundary and is an exact mutiple of the cache-line size can invalidate_dcache_range() be called, otherwise flush_dcache_range() must be called. flush_dcache_range() will first flush uncommitted writes, and then invalidate the cache.

This patch extends the floating point save and restore code to use the VSX load/stores when VSX is available. This will make FP context save/restore marginally slower on FP only code, when VSX is available, as it has to load/store 128bits rather than just 64bits. Mixing FP, VMX and VSX code will get constant architected state. The signals interface is extended to enable access to VSR 0-31 doubleword 1 after discussions with tool chain maintainers. Backward compatibility is maintained. The ptrace interface is also extended to allow access to VSR 0-31 full registers.

The layout of the new VSR registers and how they overlap on top of the legacy FPR and VR registers is: VSR doubleword 0 VSR doubleword 1 ---------------------------------------------------------------- VSR[0] | FPR[0] | | ---------------------------------------------------------------- VSR[1] | FPR[1] | | ---------------------------------------------------------------- | ... | | | ... | | ---------------------------------------------------------------- VSR[30] | FPR[30] | | ---------------------------------------------------------------- VSR[31] | FPR[31] | | ---------------------------------------------------------------- VSR[32] | VR[0] | ---------------------------------------------------------------- VSR[33] | VR[1] | ---------------------------------------------------------------- | ... | | ... | ---------------------------------------------------------------- VSR[62] | VR[30] | ---------------------------------------------------------------- VSR[63] | VR[31] | ---------------------------------------------------------------- VSX has 64 128bit registers. The first 32 regs overlap with the FP registers and hence extend them with and additional 64 bits. The second 32 regs overlap with the VMX registers. This commit introduces the thread_struct changes required to reflect this register layout. Ptrace and signals code is updated so that the floating point registers are correctly accessed from the thread_struct when CONFIG_VSX is enabled.

The current feature section logic only supports nop'ing out code, this means if you want to choose at runtime between instruction sequences, one or both cases will have to execute the nop'ed out contents of the other section, eg: BEGIN_FTR_SECTION or 1,1,1 END_FTR_SECTION_IFSET(FOO) BEGIN_FTR_SECTION or 2,2,2 END_FTR_SECTION_IFCLR(FOO) and the resulting code will be either, or 1,1,1 nop or, nop or 2,2,2 For small code segments this is fine, but for larger code blocks and in performance criticial code segments, it would be nice to avoid the nops. This commit starts to implement logic to allow the following: BEGIN_FTR_SECTION or 1,1,1 FTR_SECTION_ELSE or 2,2,2 ALT_FTR_SECTION_END_IFSET(FOO) and the resulting code will be: or 1,1,1 or, or 2,2,2 We achieve this by extending the existing FTR macros. The current feature section semantic just becomes a special case, ie. if the else case is empty we nop out the default case. The key limitation is that the size of the else case must be less than or equal to the size of the default case. If the else case is smaller the remainder of the section is nop'ed. We let the linker put the else case code in with the rest of the text, so that relative branches from the else case are more likley to link, this has the disadvantage that we can't free the unused else cases. This commit introduces the required macro and linker script changes, but does not enable the patching of the alternative sections.
