      powerpc: Make it possible to move the interrupt handlers away from the kernel · 1f6a93e4
      由 Paul Mackerras 提交于 
      This changes the way that the exception prologs transfer control to
the handlers in 64-bit kernels with the aim of making it possible to
have the prologs separate from the main body of the kernel.  Now,
instead of computing the address of the handler by taking the top
32 bits of the paca address (to get the 0xc0000000........ part) and
ORing in something in the bottom 16 bits, we get the base address of
the kernel by doing a load from the paca and add an offset.

This also replaces an mfmsr and an ori to compute the MSR value for
the handler with a load from the paca.  That makes it unnecessary to
have a separate version of EXCEPTION_PROLOG_PSERIES that forces 64-bit
mode.

We can no longer use a direct branches in the exception prolog code,
which means that the SLB miss handlers can't branch directly to
.slb_miss_realmode any more.  Instead we have to compute the address
and do an indirect branch.  This is conditional on CONFIG_RELOCATABLE;
for non-relocatable kernels we use a direct branch as before.  (A later
change will allow CONFIG_RELOCATABLE to be set on 64-bit powerpc.)

Since the secondary CPUs on pSeries start execution in the first 0x100
bytes of real memory and then have to get to wherever the kernel is,
we can't use a direct branch to get there.  Instead this changes
__secondary_hold_spinloop from a flag to a function pointer.  When it
is set to a non-NULL value, the secondary CPUs jump to the function
pointed to by that value.

Finally this eliminates one code difference between 32-bit and 64-bit
by making __secondary_hold be the text address of the secondary CPU
spinloop rather than a function descriptor for it.

      powerpc: Rearrange head_64.S to move interrupt handler code to the beginning · 9a955167
      由 Paul Mackerras 提交于 
      This rearranges head_64.S so that we have all the first-level exception
prologs together starting at 0x100, followed by all the second-level
handlers that are invoked from the first-level prologs, followed by
other code.  This doesn't make any functional change but will make
following changes for relocatable kernel support easier.

      powerpc: Add support for dynamic reconfiguration memory in kexec/kdump kernels · cf00085d
      由 Chandru 提交于 
      Kdump kernel needs to use only those memory regions that it is allowed
to use (crashkernel, rtas, tce, etc.).  Each of these regions have
their own sizes and are currently added under 'linux,usable-memory'
property under each memory@xxx node of the device tree.

The ibm,dynamic-memory property of ibm,dynamic-reconfiguration-memory
node (on POWER6) now stores in it the representation for most of the
logical memory blocks with the size of each memory block being a
constant (lmb_size).  If one or more or part of the above mentioned
regions lie under one of the lmb from ibm,dynamic-memory property,
there is a need to identify those regions within the given lmb.

This makes the kernel recognize a new 'linux,drconf-usable-memory'
property added by kexec-tools.  Each entry in this property is of the
form of a count followed by that many (base, size) pairs for the above
mentioned regions.  The number of cells in the count value is given by
the #size-cells property of the root node.

      powerpc: Check rc of notifier chain for memory remove · 525c411d
      由 Nathan Fontenot 提交于 
      The return code from invocation of the notifier for
pSeries_reconfig_chain during update of the device tree is not
checked.  This causes writes to /proc/ppc64/ofdt to update memory
properties (i.e. ibm,dyamic-reconfiguration-memory) to always
return success, instead of the result of the notifier chain.

This happens specifically when we remove/add memory from the
device tree on machines using memory specified in the
ibm,dynamic-reconfiguration-memory property of the device tree.

      powerpc: New copy_4K_page() · 57dda6ef
      由 Mark Nelson 提交于 
      This new copy_4K_page() function was originally tuned for the best
performance on the Cell processor, but after testing on more 64bit
powerpc chips it was found that with a small modification it either
matched the performance offered by the current mainline version or
bettered it by a small amount.

It was found that on a Cell-based QS22 blade the amount of system
time measured when compiling a 2.6.26 pseries_defconfig decreased
by 4%. Using the same test, a 4-way 970MP machine saw a decrease of
2% in system time. No noticeable change was seen on Power4, Power5
or Power6.

The 4096 byte page is copied in thirty-two 128 byte strides. An
initial setup loop executes dcbt instructions for the whole source
page and dcbz instructions for the whole destination page. To do
this, the cache line size is retrieved from ppc64_caches.

A new CPU feature bit, CPU_FTR_CP_USE_DCBTZ, (introduced in the
previous patch) is used to make the modification to this new copy
routine - on Power4, 970 and Cell the feature bit is set so the
setup loop is executed, but on all other 64bit chips the setup
loop is nop'ed out.

      powerpc: Add new CPU feature: CPU_FTR_CP_USE_DCBTZ · 2a929436
      由 Mark Nelson 提交于 
      Add a new CPU feature bit, CPU_FTR_CP_USE_DCBTZ, to be added to the
64bit powerpc chips that benefit from having dcbt and dcbz
instructions used in their memory copy routines.

This will be used in a subsequent patch that updates copy_4K_page().
The new bit is added to Cell, PPC970 and Power4 because they show
better performance with the new copy_4K_page() when dcbt and dcbz
instructions are used.

      powerpc/spufs: Fix possible scheduling of a context to multiple SPEs · b2e601d1
      由 Andre Detsch 提交于 
      We currently have a race when scheduling a context to a SPE -
after we have found a runnable context in spusched_tick, the same
context may have been scheduled by spu_activate().

This may result in a panic if we try to unschedule a context that has
been freed in the meantime.

This change exits spu_schedule() if the context has already been
scheduled, so we don't end up scheduling it twice.

      powerpc/spufs: Fix race for a free SPU · b65fe035
      由 Jeremy Kerr 提交于 
      We currently have a race for a free SPE. With one thread doing a
spu_yield(), and another doing a spu_activate():

thread 1				thread 2
spu_yield(oldctx)			spu_activate(ctx)
  __spu_deactivate(oldctx)
  spu_unschedule(oldctx, spu)
  spu->alloc_state = SPU_FREE
					spu = spu_get_idle(ctx)
					    - searches for a SPE in
					      state SPU_FREE, gets
					      the context just
					      freed by thread 1
					spu_schedule(ctx, spu)
					  spu->alloc_state = SPU_USED
spu_schedule(newctx, spu)
  - assumes spu is still free
  - tries to schedule context on
    already-used spu

This change introduces a 'free_spu' flag to spu_unschedule, to indicate
whether or not the function should free the spu after descheduling the
context. We only set this flag if we're not going to re-schedule
another context on this SPU.

Add a comment to document this behaviour.

      Commit 8d5636fb introduced a reference

Change the reference to after we've found our victim context, so we
don't do the extra get_spu_context().
