the only non-obvious part is that current_pt_regs() is really needed here - task_pt_regs() is NULL for kernel threads; it's OK for ptrace uses (the thing task_pt_regs() is intended for), but not for us. Signed-off-by: NAl Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

The CPU hotplug code for the powernv platform currently only puts offline CPUs into nap mode if the powersave_nap variable is set. However, HV-style KVM on this platform requires secondary CPU threads to be offline and in nap mode. Since we know nap mode works just fine on all POWER7 machines, and the only machines that support the powernv platform are POWER7 machines, this changes the code to always put offline CPUs into nap mode, regardless of powersave_nap. Powersave_nap still controls whether or not CPUs go into nap mode when idle, as before.

Commit 9adc5374 ('common: dma-mapping: introduce mmap method') added a generic method for implementing mmap user call to dma_map_ops structure. This patch converts ARM and PowerPC architectures (the only providers of dma_mmap_coherent/dma_mmap_writecombine calls) to use this generic dma_map_ops based call and adds a generic cross architecture definition for dma_mmap_attrs, dma_mmap_coherent, dma_mmap_writecombine functions. The generic mmap virt_to_page-based fallback implementation is provided for architectures which don't provide their own implementation for mmap method.

We have a request for a fast method of getting CPU and NUMA node IDs from userspace. This patch implements a getcpu VDSO function, similar to x86. Ben suggested we use SPRG3 which is userspace readable. SPRG3 can be modified by a KVM guest, so we save the SPRG3 value in the paca and restore it when transitioning from the guest to the host. I have a glibc patch that implements sched_getcpu on top of this.

Add the ability to inject IOMMU faults. We enable this per device via a fail_iommu sysfs property, similar to fault injection on other subsystems.

Now have ___PPC_RA/B/S/T we can use it in some places. These are places where we can't use the existing defines which will soon enforce R0-R31 usage. The macros being changed here are being used in inline asm, which can't convert to enforce the R0-R31 usage. bpf_jit uses a mix of both generated and non-generated with the same code, so just convert all these to use the ___PPC_R versions which won't enforce R usage later.

Looks like we still have issues with pSeries and Cell idle code vs. the lazy irq state. In fact, the reset fixes that went upstream are exposing the problem more by causing BUG_ON() to trigger (which this patch turns into a WARN_ON instead). We need to be careful when using a variant of low power state that has the side effect of turning interrupts back on, to properly set all the SW & lazy state to look as if everything is enabled before we enter the low power state with MSR:EE off as we will return with MSR:EE on. If not, we have a discrepancy of state which can cause things to go very wrong later on. This patch moves the logic into a helper and uses it from the pseries and cell idle code. The power4/970 idle code already got things right (in assembly even !) so I'm not touching it. The power7 "bare metal" idle code is subtly different and correct. Remains PA6T and some hypervisor based Cell platforms which have questionable code in there, but they are mostly dead platforms so I'll fix them when I manage to get final answers from the respective maintainers about how the low power state actually works on them.

At the moment all queues in a multiqueue adapter will serialise against the IOMMU table lock. This is proving to be a big issue, especially with 10Gbit ethernet. This patch creates 4 pools and tries to spread the load across them. If the table is under 1GB in size we revert back to the original behaviour of 1 pool and 1 largealloc pool. We create a hash to map CPUs to pools. Since we prefer interrupts to be affinitised to primary CPUs, without some form of hashing we are very likely to end up using the same pool. As an example, POWER7 has 4 way SMT and with 4 pools all primary threads will map to the same pool. The largealloc pool is reduced from 1/2 to 1/4 of the space to partially offset the overhead of breaking the table up into pools. Some performance numbers were obtained with a Chelsio T3 adapter on two POWER7 boxes, running a 100 session TCP round robin test. Performance improved 69% with this patch applied.

For ftrace to use the patch_instruction code, it needs to check for faults on write. Ftrace updates code all over the kernel, and we need to know if code is updated or not due to protections that are placed on some portions of the kernel. If ftrace does not detect a fault, it will error later on, and it will be much more difficult to find the problem. By changing patch_instruction() to detect faults, then ftrace will be able to make use of it too.
