Do not select HOTPLUG_CPU from SUN_LDOMS, that causes HOTPLUG_CPU to be selected even on non-SMP which is illegal. Only build hvtramp.o when SMP, just like trampoline.o Protect dr-cpu code in ds.c with HOTPLUG_CPU. Likewise move ldom_startcpu_cpuid() to smp.c and protect it and the call site with SUN_LDOMS && HOTPLUG_CPU. Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Only adding cpus is supports at the moment, removal will come next. When new cpus are configured, the machine description is updated. When we get the configure request we pass in a cpu mask of to-be-added cpus to the mdesc CPU node parser so it only fetches information for those cpus. That code also proceeds to update the SMT/multi-core scheduling bitmaps. cpu_up() does all the work and we return the status back over the DS channel. CPUs via dr-cpu need to be booted straight out of the hypervisor, and this requires: 1) A new trampoline mechanism. CPUs are booted straight out of the hypervisor with MMU disabled and running in physical addresses with no mappings installed in the TLB. The new hvtramp.S code sets up the critical cpu state, installs the locked TLB mappings for the kernel, and turns the MMU on. It then proceeds to follow the logic of the existing trampoline.S SMP cpu bringup code. 2) All calls into OBP have to be disallowed when domaining is enabled. Since cpus boot straight into the kernel from the hypervisor, OBP has no state about that cpu and therefore cannot handle being invoked on that cpu. Luckily it's only a handful of interfaces which can be called after the OBP device tree is obtained. For example, rebooting, halting, powering-off, and setting options node variables. CPU removal support will require some infrastructure changes here. Namely we'll have to process the requests via a true kernel thread instead of in a workqueue. workqueues run on a per-cpu thread, but when unconfiguring we might need to force the thread to execute on another cpu if the current cpu is the one being removed. Removal of a cpu also causes the kernel to destroy that cpu's workqueue running thread. Another issue on removal is that we may have interrupts still pointing to the cpu-to-be-removed. So new code will be needed to walk the active INO list and retarget those cpus as-needed. Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Virtual devices on Sun Logical Domains are built on top of a virtual channel framework. This, with help of hypervisor interfaces, provides a link layer protocol with basic handshaking over which virtual device clients and servers communicate. Built on top of this is a VIO device protocol which has it's own handshaking and message types. At this layer attributes are exchanged (disk size, network device addresses, etc.) descriptor rings are registered, and data transfers are triggers and replied to. Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

Hypervisor interfaces need to be negotiated in order to use some API calls reliably. So add a small set of interfaces to request API versions and query current settings. This allows us to fix some bugs in the hypervisor console: 1) If we can negotiate API group CORE of at least major 1 minor 1 we can use con_read and con_write which can improve console performance quite a bit. 2) When we do a console write request, we should hold the spinlock around the whole request, not a byte at a time. What would happen is that it's easy for output from different cpus to get mixed with each other. 3) Use consistent udelay() based polling, udelay(1) each loop with a limit of 1000 polls to handle stuck hypervisor console.

Some minor refactoring in the generic code was necessary for this: 1) This controller requires 8-byte access to the interrupt map and clear register. They are 64-bits on all the other SBUS and PCI controllers anyways, so this was easy to cure. 2) The IMAP register has a different layout and some bits that we need to preserve, so use a read/modify/write when making changes to the IMAP register in generic code. 3) Flushing the entire IOMMU TLB is best done with a single write to a register on this PCI controller, add a iommu->iommu_flushinv for this. Still lacks MSI support, that will come later. Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

... that should do it for all targets; the only remaining issues are mips (currently treated as non-biarch) and handling of other OS emulations (OSF/SunOS/Solaris/???). The latter would need to be assigned new AUDIT_ARCH_... ABI numbers anyway... Signed-off-by: NAl Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

We now use the TSB hardware assist features of the UltraSPARC MMUs. SMP is currently knowingly broken, we need to find another place to store the per-cpu base pointers. We hid them away in the TSB base register, and that obviously will not work any more :-) Another known broken case is non-8KB base page size. Also noticed that flush_tlb_all() is not referenced anywhere, only the internal __flush_tlb_all() (local cpu only) is used by the sparc64 port, so we can get rid of flush_tlb_all(). The kernel gets it's own 8KB TSB (swapper_tsb) and each address space gets it's own private 8K TSB. Later we can add code to dynamically increase the size of per-process TSB as the RSS grows. An 8KB TSB is good enough for up to about a 4MB RSS, after which the TSB starts to incur many capacity and conflict misses. We even accumulate OBP translations into the kernel TSB. Another area for refinement is large page size support. We could use a secondary address space TSB to handle those. Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Now that all these entries in the arch ioctl32.c files are gone [1], we can build fs/compat_ioctl.c as a normal object and kill tons of cruft. We need a special do_ioctl32_pointer handler for s390 so the compat_ptr call is done. This is not needed but harmless on all other architectures. Also remove some superflous includes in fs/compat_ioctl.c Tested on ppc64. [1] parisc still had it's PPP handler left, which is not fully correct for ppp and besides that ppp uses the generic SIOCPRIV ioctl so it'd kick in for all netdevice users. We can introduce a proper handler in one of the next patch series by adding a compat_ioctl method to struct net_device but for now let's just kill it - parisc doesn't compile in mainline anyway and I don't want this to block this patchset.

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!
