      powerpc: Merge enough to start building in arch/powerpc. · 14cf11af
      Paul Mackerras 提交于
      This creates the directory structure under arch/powerpc and a bunch
      of Kconfig files.  It does a first-cut merge of arch/powerpc/mm,
      arch/powerpc/lib and arch/powerpc/platforms/powermac.  This is enough
      to build a 32-bit powermac kernel with ARCH=powerpc.
      
      For now we are getting some unmerged files from arch/ppc/kernel and
      arch/ppc/syslib, or arch/ppc64/kernel.  This makes some minor changes
      to files in those directories and files outside arch/powerpc.
      
      The boot directory is still not merged.  That's going to be interesting.

      [PATCH] ppc64: kexec support for ppc64 · fce0d574
      R Sharada 提交于
      This patch implements the kexec support for ppc64 platforms.
      
      A couple of notes:
      
      1)  We copy the pages in virtual mode, using the full base kernel
          and a statically allocated stack.   At kexec_prepare time we
          scan the pages and if any overlap our (0, _end[]) range we
          return -ETXTBSY.
      
          On PowerPC 64 systems running in LPAR (logical partitioning)
          mode, only a small region of memory, referred to as the RMO,
          can be accessed in real mode.  Since Linux runs with only one
          zone of memory in the memory allocator, and it can be orders of
          magnitude more memory than the RMO, looping until we allocate
          pages in the source region is not feasible.  Copying in virtual
          means we don't have to write a hash table generation and call
          hypervisor to insert translations, instead we rely on the pinned
          kernel linear mapping.  The kernel already has move to linked
          location built in, so there is no requirement to load it at 0.
      
          If we want to load something other than a kernel, then a stub
          can be written to copy a linear chunk in real mode.
      
      2)  The start entry point gets passed parameters from the kernel.
          Slaves are started at a fixed address after copying code from
          the entry point.
      
          All CPUs get passed their firmware assigned physical id in r3
          (most calling conventions use this register for the first
          argument).
      
          This is used to distinguish each CPU from all other CPUs.
          Since firmware is not around, there is no other way to obtain
          this information other than to pass it somewhere.
      
          A single CPU, referred to here as the master and the one executing
          the kexec call, branches to start with the address of start in r4.
          While this can be calculated, we have to load it through a gpr to
          branch to this point so defining the register this is contained
          in is free.  A stack of unspecified size is available at r1
          (also common calling convention).
      
          All remaining running CPUs are sent to start at absolute address
          0x60 after copying the first 0x100 bytes from start to address 0.
          This convention was chosen because it matches what the kernel
          has been doing itself.  (only gpr3 is defined).
      
          Note: This is not quite the convention of the kexec bootblock v2
          in the kernel.  A stub has been written to convert between them,
          and we may adjust the kernel in the future to allow this directly
          without any stub.
      
      3)  Destination pages can be placed anywhere, even where they
          would not be accessible in real mode.  This will allow us to
          place ram disks above the RMO if we choose.

      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!
