The DSCR (aka Data Stream Control Register) is supported on some server PowerPC chips and allow some control over the prefetch of data streams. This patch allows the value to be specified per thread by emulating the corresponding mfspr and mtspr instructions. Children of such threads inherit the value. Other threads use a default value that can be specified in sysfs - /sys/devices/system/cpu/dscr_default. If a thread starts with non default value in the sysfs entry, all children threads inherit this non default value even if the sysfs value is changed later.

When we set up the TLB for ourselves on Book3E, we need to flush out any old mappings established by the firmware or bootloader. At present we attempt this with a tlbilx to flush everything, but this will leave behind any entries with the IPROT bit set. There are several good reason firmware might establish mappings with IPROT, and in fact ePAPR compliant firmwares are required to establish their initial mapped area with IPROT. This patch, therefore adds more complex code to scan through the TLB upon entry and flush away any entries that are not our own.

In exc_lvl_ctx_init() we index into the crit/dbg/mcheck stacks using the hard cpu id, but that assumes the hard cpu id is zero based and contiguous. That is not the case on A2. The root of the problem is that the 32bit code has no equivalent of the paca to allow it to do the hard->soft mapping in assembler. Until the 32bit code is updated to handle that, index the stacks using the soft cpu ids on 64bit and hard on 32 bit.

As well as searching for nodes with type = "nvram", search for nodes that have compatible = "nvram". This can't be converted into a single call to of_find_compatible_node() with a non-NULL type, because that searches for a node that has _both_ type & compatible = "nvram".

Currently we allocate the stale_map for a cpu when it comes online, this leaves open a small window where a process can be scheduled on the cpu before the stale_map is allocated. Instead allocate the stale_map at CPU_UP_PREPARE time, that way it will be always available before tasks start running. It is possible the cpu fails to come up, in which case we should free the stale_map, so add a CPU_UP_CANCELED case to do that.

When we start a cpu we use smp_ops->kick_cpu(), which currently returns void, it should be able to fail. Convert it to return int, and update all uses.

This is a first cut at making bootwrapper code which will produce a zImage compliant with the requirements set down by ePAPR. This is a very simple bootwrapper, taking the device tree blob supplied by the ePAPR boot program and passing it on to the kernel. It builds on the earlier patch to build a relocatable ET_DYN zImage to meet the other ePAPR image requirements. For good measure we have some paranoid checks which will generate warnings if some of the ePAPR entry condition guarantees are not met.

This patch adds code, linker script and makefile support to allow building the zImage wrapper around the kernel as a position independent executable. This results in an ET_DYN instead of an ET_EXEC ELF output file, which can be loaded at any location by the firmware and will process its own relocations to work correctly at the loaded address. This is of interest particularly since the standard ePAPR image format must be an ET_DYN (although this patch alone is not sufficient to produce a fully ePAPR compliant boot image). Note for now we don't enable building with -pie for anything.

On Book3E, MMU_NO_CONTEXT != 0, but the slice_mm_new_context() macro assumes that it is. This means that the map of the page sizes for each slice is always initialized to zeroes (which happens to be 4k pages), rather than to the correct default base page size value - which might be 64k.

We do it before we loop on the PACA start flag. This way, we get a chance to set critical SPRs on all CPUs before Linux tries to start them up, which avoids problems when changing some bits such as LPCR bits that need to be identical on all threads of a core or similar things like that. Ideally, some of that should also be done before the MMU is enabled, but that's a separate issue which would require moving some of the SMP startup code earlier, let's not get there for now, it works with that change alone.

This uses feature sections to arrange that we always use HSPRG1 as the scratch register in the interrupt entry code rather than SPRG2 when we're running in hypervisor mode on POWER7. This will ensure that we don't trash the guest's SPRG2 when we are running KVM guests. To simplify the code, we define GET_SCRATCH0() and SET_SCRATCH0() macros like the GET_PACA/SET_PACA macros.

When running in Hypervisor mode (arch 2.06 or later), we store the PACA in HSPRG0 instead of SPRG1. The architecture specifies that SPRGs may be lost during a "nap" power management operation (though they aren't currently on POWER7) and this enables use of SPRG1 by KVM guests.

This bit indicates that we are operating in hypervisor mode on a CPU compliant to architecture 2.06 or later (currently server only).

This is a significant rework of the XICS driver, too significant to conveniently break it up into a series of smaller patches to be honest. The driver is moved to a more generic location to allow new platforms to use it, and is broken up into separate ICP and ICS "backends". For now we have the native and "hypervisor" ICP backends and one common RTAS ICS backend. The driver supports one ICP backend instanciation, and many ICS ones, in order to accomodate future platforms with multiple possibly different interrupt "sources" mechanisms.

Because of speculative event roll back, it is possible for some event coutners to decrease between reads on POWER7. This causes a problem with the way that counters are updated. Delta calues are calculated in a 64 bit value and the top 32 bits are masked. If the register value has decreased, this leaves us with a very large positive value added to the kernel counters. This patch protects against this by skipping the update if the delta would be negative. This can lead to a lack of precision in the coutner values, but from my testing the value is typcially fewer than 10 samples at a time.

PAPR specifies that DTL buffers can not cross AMS environments (aka CMO in the PAPR) and can not cross a memory entitlement granule boundary (4k). This is found in section 14.11.3.2 H_REGISTER_VPA of the PAPR. kmalloc does not guarantee an alignment of the allocation, though, beyond 8 bytes (at least in my understanding).
