      [POWERPC] Support feature fixups in vdso's · 0909c8c2
      Benjamin Herrenschmidt 提交于
      This patch reworks the feature fixup mecanism so vdso's can be fixed up.
      The main issue was that the construct:
      
              .long   label  (or .llong on 64 bits)
      
      will not work in the case of a shared library like the vdso. It will
      generate an empty placeholder in the fixup table along with a reloc,
      which is not something we can deal with in the vdso.
      
      The idea here (thanks Alan Modra !) is to instead use something like:
      
      1:
              .long   label - 1b
      
      That is, the feature fixup tables no longer contain addresses of bits of
      code to patch, but offsets of such code from the fixup table entry
      itself. That is properly resolved by ld when building the .so's. I've
      modified the fixup mecanism generically to use that method for the rest
      of the kernel as well.
      
      Another trick is that the 32 bits vDSO included in the 64 bits kernel
      need to have a table in the 64 bits format. However, gas does not
      support 32 bits code with a statement of the form:
      
              .llong  label - 1b  (Or even just .llong label)
      
      That is, it cannot emit the right fixup/relocation for the linker to use
      to assign a 32 bits address to an .llong field. Thus, in the specific
      case of the 32 bits vdso built as part of the 64 bits kernel, we are
      using a modified macro that generates:
      
              .long   0xffffffff
              .llong  label - 1b
      
      Note that is assumes that the value is negative which is enforced by
      the .lds (those offsets are always negative as the .text is always
      before the fixup table and gas doesn't support emiting the reloc the
      other way around).

      [POWERPC] Consolidate feature fixup code · 42c4aaad
      Benjamin Herrenschmidt 提交于
      There are currently two versions of the functions for applying the
      feature fixups, one for CPU features and one for firmware features. In
      addition, they are both in assembly and with separate implementations
      for 32 and 64 bits. identify_cpu() is also implemented in assembly and
      separately for 32 and 64 bits.
      
      This patch replaces them with a pair of C functions. The call sites are
      slightly moved on ppc64 as well to be called from C instead of from
      assembly, though it's a very small change, and thus shouldn't cause any
      problem.

      [POWERPC] Add new interrupt mapping core and change platforms to use it · 0ebfff14
      Benjamin Herrenschmidt 提交于
      This adds the new irq remapper core and removes the old one.  Because
      there are some fundamental conflicts with the old code, like the value
      of NO_IRQ which I'm now setting to 0 (as per discussions with Linus),
      etc..., this commit also changes the relevant platform and driver code
      over to use the new remapper (so as not to cause difficulties later
      in bisecting).
      
      This patch removes the old pre-parsing of the open firmware interrupt
      tree along with all the bogus assumptions it made to try to renumber
      interrupts according to the platform. This is all to be handled by the
      new code now.
      
      For the pSeries XICS interrupt controller, a single remapper host is
      created for the whole machine regardless of how many interrupt
      presentation and source controllers are found, and it's set to match
      any device node that isn't a 8259.  That works fine on pSeries and
      avoids having to deal with some of the complexities of split source
      controllers vs. presentation controllers in the pSeries device trees.
      
      The powerpc i8259 PIC driver now always requests the legacy interrupt
      range. It also has the feature of being able to match any device node
      (including NULL) if passed no device node as an input. That will help
      porting over platforms with broken device-trees like Pegasos who don't
      have a proper interrupt tree.

      [PATCH] node hotplug: register cpu: remove node struct · 76b67ed9
      KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki 提交于
      With Goto-san's patch, we can add new pgdat/node at runtime.  I'm now
      considering node-hot-add with cpu + memory on ACPI.
      
      I found acpi container, which describes node, could evaluate cpu before
      memory. This means cpu-hot-add occurs before memory hot add.
      
      In most part, cpu-hot-add doesn't depend on node hot add.  But register_cpu(),
      which creates symbolic link from node to cpu, requires that node should be
      onlined before register_cpu().  When a node is onlined, its pgdat should be
      there.
      
      This patch-set holds off creating symbolic link from node to cpu
      until node is onlined.
      
      This removes node arguments from register_cpu().
      
      Now, register_cpu() requires 'struct node' as its argument.  But the array of
      struct node is now unified in driver/base/node.c now (By Goto's node hotplug
      patch).  We can get struct node in generic way.  So, this argument is not
      necessary now.
      
      This patch also guarantees add cpu under node only when node is onlined.  It
      is necessary for node-hot-add vs.  cpu-hot-add patch following this.
      
      Moreover, register_cpu calculates cpu->node_id by cpu_to_node() without regard
      to its 'struct node *root' argument.  This patch removes it.
      
      Also modify callers of register_cpu()/unregister_cpu, whose args are changed
      by register-cpu-remove-node-struct patch.

      [PATCH] more for_each_cpu() conversions · 394e3902
      Andrew Morton 提交于
      When we stop allocating percpu memory for not-possible CPUs we must not touch
      the percpu data for not-possible CPUs at all.  The correct way of doing this
      is to test cpu_possible() or to use for_each_cpu().
      
      This patch is a kernel-wide sweep of all instances of NR_CPUS.  I found very
      few instances of this bug, if any.  But the patch converts lots of open-coded
      test to use the preferred helper macros.

      The merged version follows the ppc64 version pretty closely mostly,
      and in fact ARCH=ppc64 now uses the arch/powerpc/xmon version.
      The main difference for ppc64 is that the 'p' command to call
      show_state (which was always pretty dodgy) has been replaced by
      the ppc32 'p' command, which calls a given procedure (so in fact
      the old 'p' command behaviour can be achieved with 'p $show_state').
