      ppc64: Set up PCI tree from Open Firmware device tree · 4267292b
      Paul Mackerras 提交于
      This adds code which gives us the option on ppc64 of instantiating the
      PCI tree (the tree of pci_bus and pci_dev structs) from the Open
      Firmware device tree rather than by probing PCI configuration space.
      The OF device tree has a node for each PCI device and bridge in the
      system, with properties that tell us what addresses the firmware has
      configured for them and other details.
      
      There are a couple of reasons why this is needed.  First, on systems
      with a hypervisor, there is a PCI-PCI bridge per slot under the PCI
      host bridges.  These PCI-PCI bridges have special isolation features
      for virtualization.  We can't write to their config space, and we are
      not supposed to be reading their config space either.  The firmware
      tells us about the address ranges that they pass in the OF device
      tree.
      
      Secondly, on powermacs, the interrupt controller is in a PCI device
      that may be behind a PCI-PCI bridge.  If we happened to take an
      interrupt just at the point when the device or a bridge on the path to
      it was disabled for probing, we would crash when we try to access the
      interrupt controller.
      
      I have implemented a platform-specific function which is called for
      each PCI bridge (host or PCI-PCI) to say whether the code should look
      in the device tree or use normal PCI probing for the devices under
      that bridge.  On pSeries machines we use the device tree if we're
      running under a hypervisor, otherwise we use normal probing.  On
      powermacs we use normal probing for the AGP bridge, since the device
      for the AGP bridge itself isn't shown in the device tree (at least on
      my G5), and the device tree for everything else.
      
      This has been tested on a dual G5 powermac, a partition on a POWER5
      machine (running under the hypervisor), and a legacy iSeries
      partition.

      [PATCH] ppc64: kexec support for ppc64 · fce0d574
      R Sharada 提交于
      This patch implements the kexec support for ppc64 platforms.
      
      A couple of notes:
      
      1)  We copy the pages in virtual mode, using the full base kernel
          and a statically allocated stack.   At kexec_prepare time we
          scan the pages and if any overlap our (0, _end[]) range we
          return -ETXTBSY.
      
          On PowerPC 64 systems running in LPAR (logical partitioning)
          mode, only a small region of memory, referred to as the RMO,
          can be accessed in real mode.  Since Linux runs with only one
          zone of memory in the memory allocator, and it can be orders of
          magnitude more memory than the RMO, looping until we allocate
          pages in the source region is not feasible.  Copying in virtual
          means we don't have to write a hash table generation and call
          hypervisor to insert translations, instead we rely on the pinned
          kernel linear mapping.  The kernel already has move to linked
          location built in, so there is no requirement to load it at 0.
      
          If we want to load something other than a kernel, then a stub
          can be written to copy a linear chunk in real mode.
      
      2)  The start entry point gets passed parameters from the kernel.
          Slaves are started at a fixed address after copying code from
          the entry point.
      
          All CPUs get passed their firmware assigned physical id in r3
          (most calling conventions use this register for the first
          argument).
      
          This is used to distinguish each CPU from all other CPUs.
          Since firmware is not around, there is no other way to obtain
          this information other than to pass it somewhere.
      
          A single CPU, referred to here as the master and the one executing
          the kexec call, branches to start with the address of start in r4.
          While this can be calculated, we have to load it through a gpr to
          branch to this point so defining the register this is contained
          in is free.  A stack of unspecified size is available at r1
          (also common calling convention).
      
          All remaining running CPUs are sent to start at absolute address
          0x60 after copying the first 0x100 bytes from start to address 0.
          This convention was chosen because it matches what the kernel
          has been doing itself.  (only gpr3 is defined).
      
          Note: This is not quite the convention of the kexec bootblock v2
          in the kernel.  A stub has been written to convert between them,
          and we may adjust the kernel in the future to allow this directly
          without any stub.
      
      3)  Destination pages can be placed anywhere, even where they
          would not be accessible in real mode.  This will allow us to
          place ram disks above the RMO if we choose.

      [PATCH] pSeries - read irqs dynamically · dad32bbf
      John Rose 提交于
      For I/O DLPAR to work properly, the kernel needs to allow for dynamic
      assignment of the irq field of the pci_dev structure upon dynamic bus
      addition.  This patch moves the assignment of that field from
      pSeries_final_fixup() to pcibios_fixup_bus(), which enables dynamic
      assignment for the children of a newly added bus.
      
      Currently, pci_devs receive their irq numbers in one of two ways.  The
      irq line is either read at boot for all pci_devs, or read by the rpaphp
      module at slot enable time.  The latter is no longer sufficient for
      DLPAR addition of slots that don't qualify as PCI-hotplug capable.
      This solution handles the cases of boot and dynamic add.

      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!
