      [POWERPC] Fix boot failure on POWER6 · dfbe0d3b
      Paul Mackerras 提交于
      Commit 473980a9 added a call to clear
      the SLB shadow buffer before registering it.  Unfortunately this means
      that we clear out the entries that slb_initialize has previously set in
      there.  On POWER6, the hypervisor uses the SLB shadow buffer when doing
      partition switches, and that means that after the next partition switch,
      each non-boot CPU has no SLB entries to map the kernel text and data,
      which causes it to crash.
      
      This fixes it by reverting most of 473980a9 and instead clearing the
      3rd entry explicitly in slb_initialize.  This fixes the problem that
      473980a9 was trying to solve, but without breaking POWER6.

      [POWERPC] Use 1TB segments · 1189be65
      Paul Mackerras 提交于
      This makes the kernel use 1TB segments for all kernel mappings and for
      user addresses of 1TB and above, on machines which support them
      (currently POWER5+, POWER6 and PA6T).
      
      We detect that the machine supports 1TB segments by looking at the
      ibm,processor-segment-sizes property in the device tree.
      
      We don't currently use 1TB segments for user addresses < 1T, since
      that would effectively prevent 32-bit processes from using huge pages
      unless we also had a way to revert to using 256MB segments.  That
      would be possible but would involve extra complications (such as
      keeping track of which segment size was used when HPTEs were inserted)
      and is not addressed here.
      
      Parts of this patch were originally written by Ben Herrenschmidt.

      [POWERPC] clean up pseries hcall interfaces · b9377ffc
      Anton Blanchard 提交于
      Our pseries hcall interfaces are out of control:
      
      	plpar_hcall_norets
      	plpar_hcall
      	plpar_hcall_8arg_2ret
      	plpar_hcall_4out
      	plpar_hcall_7arg_7ret
      	plpar_hcall_9arg_9ret
      
      Create 3 interfaces to cover all cases:
      
      	plpar_hcall_norets:	7 arguments no returns
      	plpar_hcall:		6 arguments 4 returns
      	plpar_hcall9:		9 arguments 9 returns
      
      There are only 2 cases in the kernel that need plpar_hcall9, hopefully
      we can keep it that way.
      
      Pass in a buffer to stash return parameters so we avoid the &dummy1,
      &dummy2 madness.

      [PATCH] powerpc: Remove lppaca structure from the PACA · 3356bb9f
      David Gibson 提交于
      At present the lppaca - the structure shared with the iSeries
      hypervisor and phyp - is contained within the PACA, our own low-level
      per-cpu structure.  This doesn't have to be so, the patch below
      removes it, making a separate array of lppaca structures.
      
      This saves approximately 500*NR_CPUS bytes of image size and kernel
      memory, because we don't need aligning gap between the Linux and
      hypervisor portions of every PACA.  On the other hand it means an
      extra level of dereference in many accesses to the lppaca.
      
      The patch also gets rid of several places where we assign the paca
      address to a local variable for no particular reason.

      [PATCH] powerpc: udbg updates · bb6b9b28
      Benjamin Herrenschmidt 提交于
      The udbg low level io layer has an issue with udbg_getc() returning a
      char (unsigned on ppc) instead of an int, thus the -1 if you had no
      available input device could end up turned into 0xff, filling your
      display with bogus characters. This fixes it, along with adding a little
      blob to xmon to do a delay before exiting when getting an EOF and fixing
      the detection of ADB keyboards in udbg_adb.c

      [PATCH] powerpc: Unify udbg (#2) · 51d3082f
      Benjamin Herrenschmidt 提交于
      This patch unifies udbg for both ppc32 and ppc64 when building the
      merged achitecture. xmon now has a single "back end". The powermac udbg
      stuff gets enriched with some ADB capabilities and btext output. In
      addition, the early_init callback is now called on ppc32 as well,
      approx. in the same order as ppc64 regarding device-tree manipulations.
      The init sequences of ppc32 and ppc64 are getting closer, I'll unify
      them in a later patch.
      
      For now, you can force udbg to the scc using "sccdbg" or to btext using
      "btextdbg" on powermacs. I'll implement a cleaner way of forcing udbg
      output to something else than the autodetected OF output device in a
      later patch.

      [PATCH] powerpc: serial port discovery (#2) · 463ce0e1
      Benjamin Herrenschmidt 提交于
      This moves the discovery of legacy serial ports to a separate file,
      makes it common to ppc32 and ppc64, and reworks it to use the new OF
      address translators to get to the ports early. This new version can also
      detect some PCI serial cards using legacy chips and will probably match
      those discovered port with the default console choice.
      
      Only ppc64 gets udbg still yet, unifying udbg isn't finished yet.
      
      It also adds some speed-probing code to udbg so that the default console
      can come up at the same speed it was set to by the firmware.

      [PATCH] powerpc: Kill ppcdebug · dcad47fc
      David Gibson 提交于
      The ancient ppcdebug/PPCDBG mechanism is now only used in two places.
      First, in the hash setup code, one of the bits allows the size of the
      hash table to be reduced by a factor of 8 - which would be better
      accomplished with a command line option for that purpose.  The other
      was a bunch of bus walking related messages in the iSeries code, which
      would seem to be insufficient reason to keep the mechanism.
      
      This patch removes the last traces of this mechanism.
      
      Built and booted on iSeries and pSeries POWER5 LPAR (ARCH=powerpc).

      [PATCH] ppc64: support 64k pages · 3c726f8d
      Benjamin Herrenschmidt 提交于
      Adds a new CONFIG_PPC_64K_PAGES which, when enabled, changes the kernel
      base page size to 64K.  The resulting kernel still boots on any
      hardware.  On current machines with 4K pages support only, the kernel
      will maintain 16 "subpages" for each 64K page transparently.
      
      Note that while real 64K capable HW has been tested, the current patch
      will not enable it yet as such hardware is not released yet, and I'm
      still verifying with the firmware architects the proper to get the
      information from the newer hypervisors.

      Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,

      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.
