      [POWERPC] Generic DCR infrastructure · 4c75a6f4
      Benjamin Herrenschmidt 提交于
      This patch adds new dcr_map/dcr_read/dcr_write accessors for DCRs that
      can be used by drivers to transparently address either native DCRs or
      memory mapped DCRs. The implementation for memory mapped DCRs is done
      after the binding being currently worked on for SLOF and the Axon
      chipset. This patch enables it for the cell native platform

      [POWERPC] Remove ppc_md.pci_map_irq & ppc_swizzle for ARCH=powerpc · 69108cf0
      Benjamin Herrenschmidt 提交于
      These were inherited from ARCH=ppc, but are not needed since parsing of interrupts
      should be done via the of_* functions (who can do swizzling). If we ever need to
      do non-standard swizzling on bridges without a device-node, then we might add
      back a slightly different version of ppc_md.pci_swizzle but for now, that is not
      the case.
      
      I removed the couple of calls for these in 83xx. If that breaks something, then
      there is a problem with the device-tree on these.

      [POWERPC] Make pci_read_irq_line the default · f90bb153
      Benjamin Herrenschmidt 提交于
      This patch reworks the way IRQs are fixed up on PCI for arch powerpc.
      
      It makes pci_read_irq_line() called by default in the PCI code for
      devices that are probed, and add an optional per-device fixup in
      ppc_md for platforms that really need to correct what they obtain
      from pci_read_irq_line().
      
      It also removes ppc_md.irq_bus_setup which was only used by pSeries
      and should not be needed anymore.
      
      I've also removed the pSeries s7a workaround as it can't work with
      the current interrupt code anyway. I'm trying to get one of these
      machines working so I can test a proper fix for that problem.
      
      I also haven't updated the old-style fixup code from 85xx_cds.c
      because it's actually buggy :) It assigns pci_dev->irq hard coded
      numbers which is no good with the new IRQ mapping code. It should
      at least use irq_create_mapping(NULL, hard_coded_number); and possibly
      also set_irq_type() to set them as level low.

      [POWERPC] Make mmiowb's io_sync preempt safe · 292f86f0
      Hugh Dickins 提交于
      If mmiowb() is always used prior to releasing spinlock as Doc suggests,
      then it's safe against preemption; but I'm not convinced that's always
      the case.  If preemption occurs between sync and get_paca()->io_sync = 0,
      I believe there's no problem.  But in the unlikely event that gcc does
      the store relative to another register than r13 (as it did with current),
      then there's a small danger of setting another cpu's io_sync to 0, after
      it had just set it to 1.  Rewrite ppc64 mmiowb to prevent that.
      
      The remaining io_sync assignments in io.h all get_paca()->io_sync = 1,
      which is harmless even if preempted to the wrong cpu (the context switch
      itself syncs); and those in spinlock.h are while preemption is disabled.

      [POWERPC] Make current preempt-safe · 5fe8e8b8
      Hugh Dickins 提交于
      Repeated -j20 kernel builds on a G5 Quad running an SMP PREEMPT kernel
      would often collapse within a day, some exec failing with "Bad address".
      In each case examined, load_elf_binary was doing a kernel_read, but
      generic_file_aio_read's access_ok saw current->thread.fs.seg as USER_DS
      instead of KERNEL_DS.
      
      objdump of filemap.o shows gcc 4.1.0 emitting "mr r5,r13 ... ld r9,416(r5)"
      here for get_paca()->__current, instead of the expected and much more usual
      "ld r9,416(r13)"; I've seen other gcc4s do the same, but perhaps not gcc3s.
      
      So, if the task is preempted and rescheduled on a different cpu in between
      the mr and the ld, r5 will be looking at a different paca_struct from the
      one it's now on, pick up the wrong __current, and perhaps the wrong seg.
      Presumably much worse could happen elsewhere, though that split is rare.
      
      Other architectures appear to be safe (x86_64's read_pda is more limiting
      than get_paca), but ppc64 needs to force "current" into one instruction.

      [POWERPC] Use 4kB iommu pages even on 64kB-page systems · 5d2efba6
      Linas Vepstas 提交于
      The 10Gigabit ethernet device drivers appear to be able to chew
      up all 256MB of TCE mappings on pSeries systems, as evidenced by
      numerous error messages:
      
       iommu_alloc failed, tbl c0000000010d5c48 vaddr c0000000d875eff0 npages 1
      
      Some experimentation indicates that this is essentially because
      one 1500 byte ethernet MTU gets mapped as a 64K DMA region when
      the large 64K pages are enabled. Thus, it doesn't take much to
      exhaust all of the available DMA mappings for a high-speed card.
      
      This patch changes the iommu allocator to work with its own
      unique, distinct page size. Although the patch is long, its
      actually quite simple: it just #defines a distinct IOMMU_PAGE_SIZE
      and then uses this in all the places that matter.
      
      As a side effect, it also dramatically improves network performance
      on platforms with H-calls on iommu translation inserts/removes (since
      we no longer call it 16 times for a 1500 bytes packet when the iommu HW
      is still 4k).
      
      In the future, we might want to make the IOMMU_PAGE_SIZE a variable
      in the iommu_table instance, thus allowing support for different HW
      page sizes in the iommu itself.

      [POWERPC] Fix oprofile support for e500 in arch/powerpc · dd6c89f6
      Andy Fleming 提交于
      Fixed a compile error in building the 85xx support with oprofile, and in
      the process cleaned up some issues with the fsl_booke performance monitor
      code.
      
      * Reorganized FSL Book-E performance monitoring code so that the 7450
        wouldn't be built if the e500 was, and cleaned it up so it was more
        self-contained.
      
      * Added a cpu_setup function for FSL Book-E.  The original
        cpu_setup function prototype had no arguments, assuming that
        the reg_setup function would copy the required information into
        variables which represented the registers.  This was silly for
        e500, since it has 1 register per counter (rather than 3 for
        all counters), so the code has been restructured to have
        cpu_setup take the current counter config array as an argument,
        with op_powerpc_setup() invoking op_powerpc_cpu_setup() through
        on_each_cpu(), and op_powerpc_cpu_setup() invoking the
        model-specific cpu_setup function with an argument.  The
        argument is ignored on all other platforms at present.
      
      * Fixed a confusing line where a trinary operator only had two

      [POWERPC] Remove todc code from ARCH=powerpc · 0f03a43b

      [POWERPC] Lazy interrupt disabling for 64-bit machines · d04c56f7
      Paul Mackerras 提交于
      This implements a lazy strategy for disabling interrupts.  This means
      that local_irq_disable() et al. just clear the 'interrupts are
      enabled' flag in the paca.  If an interrupt comes along, the interrupt
      entry code notices that interrupts are supposed to be disabled, and
      clears the EE bit in SRR1, clears the 'interrupts are hard-enabled'
      flag in the paca, and returns.  This means that interrupts only
      actually get disabled in the processor when an interrupt comes along.
      
      When interrupts are enabled by local_irq_enable() et al., the code
      sets the interrupts-enabled flag in the paca, and then checks whether
      interrupts got hard-disabled.  If so, it also sets the EE bit in the
      MSR to hard-enable the interrupts.
      
      This has the potential to improve performance, and also makes it
      easier to make a kernel that can boot on iSeries and on other 64-bit
      machines, since this lazy-disable strategy is very similar to the
      soft-disable strategy that iSeries already uses.
      
      This version renames paca->proc_enabled to paca->soft_enabled, and
      changes a couple of soft-disables in the kexec code to hard-disables,
      which should fix the crash that Michael Ellerman saw.  This doesn't
      yet use a reserved CR field for the soft_enabled and hard_enabled
      flags.  This applies on top of Stephen Rothwell's patches to make it
      possible to build a combined iSeries/other kernel.
