The architecture specification says (for 64-bit systems): PDC is a per processor resource, and operating system software must be prepared to manage separate pointers to PDCE_PROC for each processor. The address of PDCE_PROC for the monarch processor is stored in the Page Zero location MEM_PDC. The address of PDCE_PROC for each non-monarch processor is passed in gr26 when PDCE_RESET invokes OS_RENDEZ. Currently we still use one PDC for all CPUs, but in case we face a machine which is following the specification let's warn about it. Signed-off-by: NHelge Deller <deller@gmx.de>

Fix the FTRACE function tracer for 32- and 64-bit kernel. The former code was horribly broken. Reimplement most coding in assembly and utilize optimizations, e.g. put mcount() and ftrace_stub() into one L1 cacheline. Signed-off-by: NHelge Deller <deller@gmx.de>

For the 64bit kernel the initially 16 MB kernel memory might become too small if you build a kernel with many modules built-in and with kernel text and data areas mapped on huge pages. This patch increases the initial mapping to 32MB for 64bit kernels and keeps 16MB for 32bit kernels. Signed-off-by: NHelge Deller <deller@gmx.de>

When building a 64bit kernel sometimes functions in the .init section were not able to reach the standard kernel function. Main reason for this problem is, that the linkage tables (.plt, .opd, .dlt) tend to become pretty huge and thus the distance gets too big for short calls. One option to avoid this is to use the -mlong-calls compiler option, but this increases the binary size and introduces a performance penalty. Instead, with this patch we just lay out the binary differently. Init code is stored first, followed by text, R/O and finally R/W data. This means, that init and text code is now much closer to each other, which is sufficient to reach each other by short calls. Signed-off-by: NHelge Deller <deller@gmx.de>

Since the beginning of the parisc-linux port, sometimes 64bit SMP kernels were not able to bring up other CPUs than the monarch CPU and instead crashed the kernel. The reason was unclear, esp. since it involved various machines (e.g. J5600, J6750 and SuperDome). Testing showed, that those crashes didn't happened when less than 4GB were installed, or if a 32bit Linux kernel was booted. In the end, the fix for those SMP problems is trivial: During the early phase of the initialization of the CPUs, including the monarch CPU, the PDC_PSW firmware function to enable WIDE (=64bit) mode is called. It's documented that this firmware function may clobber various registers, and one one of those possibly clobbered registers is %cr30 which holds the task thread info pointer. Now, if %cr30 would always have been clobbered, then this bug would have been detected much earlier. But lots of testing finally showed, that - at least for %cr30 - on some machines only the upper 32bits of the 64bit register suddenly turned zero after the firmware call. So, after finding the root cause, the explanation for the various crashes became clear: - On 32bit SMP Linux kernels all upper 32bit were zero, so we didn't faced this problem. - Monarch CPUs in 64bit mode always booted sucessfully, because the inital task thread info pointer was below 4GB. - Secondary CPUs booted sucessfully on machines with less than 4GB RAM because the upper 32bit were zero anyay. - Secondary CPus failed to boot if we had more than 4GB RAM and the task thread info pointer was located above the 4GB boundary. Finally, the patch to fix this problem is trivial by saving the %cr30 register before the firmware call and restoring it afterwards.

Currently parisc has the whole kernel marked as RWX, meaning any kernel page at all is eligible to be executed. This can cause a theoretical problem on systems with combined I/D TLB because the act of referencing a page causes a TLB insertion with an executable bit. This TLB entry may be used by the CPU as the basis for speculating the page into the I-Cache. If this speculated page is subsequently used for a user process, there is the possibility we will get a stale I-cache line picked up as the binary executes. As a point of good practise, only mark actual kernel text pages as executable. The same has to be done for init_text pages, but they're converted to data pages (and the I-Cache flushed) when the init memory is released. Signed-off-by: NJames Bottomley <James.Bottomley@suse.de>

Bang in our own start_parisc call, which initializes the PDC width, and turns on the FPU. Previously, if CONFIG_PRINTK_TIME was on, we'd attempt to use the FPU before we had enabled it, resulting in a difficult to diagnose panic. This patch causes init_per_cpu to redundantly set these for cpu0, but this is harmless.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
