      KVM: PPC: Remove 440 support · b2677b8d
      Alexander Graf 提交于
      The 440 target hasn't been properly functioning for a few releases and
      before I was the only one who fixes a very serious bug that indicates to
      me that nobody used it before either.
      
      Furthermore KVM on 440 is slow to the extent of unusable.
      
      We don't have to carry along completely unused code. Remove 440 and give
      us one less thing to worry about.

      powerpc/powernv: Remove OPAL v1 takeover · e2500be2
      Michael Ellerman 提交于
      In commit 27f44888 "Add OPAL takeover from PowerVM" we added support
      for "takeover" on OPAL v1 machines.
      
      This was a mode of operation where we would boot under pHyp, and query
      for the presence of OPAL. If detected we would then do a special
      sequence to take over the machine, and the kernel would end up running
      in hypervisor mode.
      
      OPAL v1 was never a supported product, and was never shipped outside
      IBM. As far as we know no one is still using it.
      
      Newer versions of OPAL do not use the takeover mechanism. Although the
      query for OPAL should be harmless on machines with newer OPAL, we have
      seen a machine where it causes a crash in Open Firmware.
      
      The code in early_init_devtree() to copy boot_command_line into cmd_line
      was added in commit 817c21ad "Get kernel command line accross OPAL
      takeover", and AFAIK is only used by takeover, so should also be
      removed.

      powerpc: IOMMU fault injection · d6b9a81b
      Anton Blanchard 提交于
      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.
      
      An example:
      
      ...
      0003:01:00.1 Ethernet controller: Emulex Corporation OneConnect 10Gb NIC (be3) (rev 02)
      
      To inject one error to this device:
      
      echo 1 > /sys/bus/pci/devices/0003:01:00.1/fail_iommu
      echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/fail_iommu/probability
      echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/fail_iommu/times
      
      As feared, the first failure injected on the be3 results in an
      unrecoverable error, taking down both functions of the card
      permanently:

      powerpc/pseries: Re-implement HVSI as part of hvc_vio · 4d2bb3f5
      Benjamin Herrenschmidt 提交于
      On pseries machines, consoles are provided by the hypervisor using
      a low level get_chars/put_chars type interface. However, this is
      really just a transport to the service processor which implements
      them either as "raw" console (networked consoles, HMC, ...) or as
      "hvsi" serial ports.
      
      The later is a simple packet protocol on top of the raw character
      interface that is supposed to convey additional "serial port" style
      semantics. In practice however, all it does is provide a way to
      read the CD line and set/clear our DTR line, that's it.
      
      We currently implement the "raw" protocol as an hvc console backend
      (/dev/hvcN) and the "hvsi" protocol using a separate tty driver
      (/dev/hvsi0).
      
      However this is quite impractical. The arbitrary difference between
      the two type of devices has been a major source of user (and distro)
      confusion. Additionally, there's an additional mini -hvsi implementation
      in the pseries platform code for our low level debug console and early
      boot kernel messages, which means code duplication, though that low
      level variant is impractical as it's incapable of doing the initial
      protocol negociation to establish the link to the FSP.
      
      This essentially replaces the dedicated hvsi driver and the platform
      udbg code completely by extending the existing hvc_vio backend used
      in "raw" mode so that:
      
       - It now supports HVSI as well
       - We add support for hvc backend providing tiocm{get,set}
       - It also provides a udbg interface for early debug and boot console
      
      This is overall less code, though this will only be obvious once we
      remove the old "hvsi" driver, which is still available for now. When
      the old driver is enabled, the new code still kicks in for the low
      level udbg console, replacing the old mini implementation in the platform
      code, it just doesn't provide the higher level "hvc" interface.
      
      In addition to producing generally simler code, this has several benefits
      over our current situation:
      
       - The user/distro only has to deal with /dev/hvcN for the hypervisor
      console, avoiding all sort of confusion that has plagued us in the past
      
       - The tty, kernel and low level debug console all use the same code
      base which supports the full protocol establishment process, thus the
      console is now available much earlier than it used to be with the
      old HVSI driver. The kernel console works much earlier and udbg is
      available much earlier too. Hackers can enable a hard coded very-early
      debug console as well that works with HVSI (previously that was only
      supported for the "raw" mode).
      
      I've tried to keep the same semantics as hvsi relative to how I react
      to things like CD changes, with some subtle differences though:
      
       - I clear DTR on close if HUPCL is set
      
       - Current hvsi triggers a hangup if it detects a up->down transition
         on CD (you can still open a console with CD down). My new implementation
         triggers a hangup if the link to the FSP is severed, and severs it upon
         detecting a up->down transition on CD.

      keep the overhead at a minimum.  Time taken for a null hcall:
      
      No tracepoint code:	135.79 cycles
      Disabled tracepoints:	137.95 cycles

      powerpc: Add configurable -Werror for arch/powerpc · ba55bd74
      Michael Ellerman 提交于
      Add the option to build the code under arch/powerpc with -Werror.
      
      The intention is to make it harder for people to inadvertantly introduce
      warnings in the arch/powerpc code. It needs to be configurable so that
      if a warning is introduced, people can easily work around it while it's
      being fixed.
      
      The option is a negative, ie. don't enable -Werror, so that it will be
      turned on for allyes and allmodconfig builds.
      
      The default is n, in the hope that developers will build with -Werror,
      that will probably lead to some build breaks, I am prepared to be flamed.
      
      It's not enabled for math-emu, which is a steaming pile of warnings.

      powerpc/kconfig: Kill PPC_MULTIPLATFORM · 28794d34
      Benjamin Herrenschmidt 提交于
      CONFIG_PPC_MULTIPLATFORM is a remain of the pre-powerpc days and isn't
      really meaningful anymore. It was basically equivalent to PPC64 || 6xx.
      
      This removes it along with the following changes:
      
       - 32-bit platforms that relied on PPC32 && PPC_MULTIPLATFORM now rely
         on 6xx which is what they want anyway.
      
       - A new symbol, PPC_BOOK3S, is defined that represent compliance with
         the "Server" variant of the architecture. This is set when either 6xx
         or PPC64 is set and open the door for future BOOK3E 64-bit.
      
       - 64-bit platforms that relied on PPC64 && PPC_MULTIPLATFORM now use
         PPC64 && PPC_BOOK3S
      
       - A separate and selectable CONFIG_PPC_OF_BOOT_TRAMPOLINE option is now
         used to control the use of prom_init.c

      powerpc: Split-out common MSI bitmap logic into msi_bitmap.c · 7e302869
      Michael Ellerman 提交于
      There are now two almost identical implementations of an MSI bitmap
      allocator, one in mpic_msi.c and the other in fsl_msi.c.
      
      Merge them together and put the result in msi_bitmap.c.  Some of the
      MPIC bits will remain to provide a nicer interface for the MPIC users.
      
      In the process we fix two buglets.  The first is that the allocation
      routines, now msi_bitmap_alloc_hwirqs(), returned an unsigned result,
      even though they use -1 to indicate allocation failure.  Although all
      the callers were checking correctly, it is much better for the routine
      to just return an int.  At least until someone wants > ~2 billion MSIs.
      
      The second buglet is that the device tree reservation logic only
      allowed power-of-two reservations.  AFAICT that didn't effect any
      existing code but it's nicer if we can reserve arbitrary irqs from MSI
      use.
      
      We also add some selftests, which exposed the two buglets and now test
      for them, as well as some basic sanity tests.  The tests are only built
      when CONFIG_DEBUG_KERNEL=y.

      It is possible to have xmon and kgdb in the same kernel, but you
      cannot use both at the same time because there is only one set of

      The arch specific kgdb implementation saves the previous state of the
      debug hooks and restores them if you unconfigure the kgdb I/O driver.

      * Implemented ppc32 versions of call_do_softirq() and call_handle_irq()
        to switch the stack pointers
      * Reworked how we do stack overflow detection.  We now keep around the
        limit of the stack in the thread_struct and compare against the limit
        to see if we've overflowed.  We can now use this on ppc64 if desired.
