The OF trampoline code prom_init.c still needs to identify IBM pSeries (PAPR) machines in order to run some platform specific code on them like instanciating the TCE tables. The code doing that detection was changed recently in 2.6.17 early stages but was done slightly incorrectly. It should be testing for an exact match of "chrp" and it currently tests for anything that begins with "chrp". That means it will incorrectly match with platforms using Maple-like device-trees and have open firmware. This fixes it by using strcmp instead of strncmp to match what the actual platform detection code does.

Forthcoming IBM machines will have a "ibm,pa-features" property on CPU nodes, that contains bits indicating which optional architecture features are implemented by the CPU. This adds code to use the property, if present, to update our CPU feature bitmaps. Note that this means we can both set and clear feature bits based on what the firmware tells us. This is based on a patch by Will Schmidt <willschm@us.ibm.com>. Signed-off-by: NPaul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

We currently single-step inline if the instruction on which a kprobe is inserted is a trap variant. - variants (such as tdnei, used by BUG()) typically evaluate a condition and cause a trap only if the condition is satisfied. - kprobes uses the unconditional "trap" (0x7fe00008) and single-stepping again on this instruction, resulting in another trap without evaluating the condition is obviously incorrect.

Change of_node_to_nid() to traverse the device tree, looking for a numa id. Cell uses this to assign ids to SPUs, which are children of the CPU node. Existing users of of_node_to_nid() are altered to use of_node_to_nid_single(), which doesn't do the traversal. Export an attach_sysdev_to_node() function, allowing system devices (eg. SPUs) to link themselves into the numa topology in sysfs.

Normally, ppc64 module .ko files contain a table-of-contents (.toc) section, but if the module doesn't reference any static or external data or external procedures, it is possible for gcc/binutils to generate a .ko that doesn't have a .toc. Currently the module loader refuses to load such a module, since it needs the address of the .toc section to use in relocations. This patch fixes the problem by using the address of the .stubs section instead, which is an acceptable substitute in this situation. Signed-off-by: NPaul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

Turn on the DART already at 1GB. This is needed because of crippled devices in some systems, i.e. Airport Extreme cards, only supporting 30-bit DMA addresses. Otherwise, users with between 1 and 2GB of memory will need to manually enable it with iommu=force, and that's no good. Some simple performance tests show that there's a slight impact of enabling DART, but it's in the 1-3% range (kernel build with disk I/O as well as over NFS). iommu=off can still be used for those who don't want to deal with the overhead (and don't need it for any devices).

Andrew Morton pointed out that compiler might not inline the functions marked for inline in kprobes. There-by allowing the insertion of probes on these kprobes routines, which might cause recursion. This patch removes all such inline and adds them to kprobes section there by disallowing probes on all such routines. Some of the routines can even still be inlined, since these routines gets executed after the kprobes had done necessay setup for reentrancy.

We weren't using the recommended sequence for putting the CPU into nap mode. When I changed the idle loop, for some reason 7447A cpus started hanging when we put them into nap mode. Changing to the recommended sequence fixes that. The complexity here is that the recommended sequence is a loop that keeps putting the cpu back into nap mode. Clearly we need some way to break out of the loop when an interrupt (external interrupt, decrementer, performance monitor) occurs. Here we use a bit in the thread_info struct to indicate that we need this, and the exception entry code notices this and arranges for the exception to return to the value in the link register, thus breaking out of the loop. We use a new `local_flags' field in the thread_info which we can alter without needing to use an atomic update sequence. The PPC970 has the same recommended sequence, so we do the same thing there too. This also fixes a bug in the kernel stack overflow handling code on 32-bit, since it was causing a value that we needed in a register to get trashed. Signed-off-by: NPaul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

Basically an in-kernel implementation of tee, which uses splice and the pipe buffers as an intelligent way to pass data around by reference.

Since the powerpc 64k pages patch went in, systems that have SLBs (like Power4 iSeries) needed to have slb_initialize called to set up some variables for the SLB miss handler.

This fixes several problems with the lparcfg code. In case someone gets a sense of deja-vu, part of this was submitted last Sep, I thought the changes went in, but either got backed out, or just got lost. First, change the local_buffer declaration to be unsigned char *. We had a bad-math problem in a 2.4 tree which was built with a "-fsigned-char" parm. I dont believe we ever build with that parm now-a-days, but to be safe, I'd prefer the declaration be explicit. Second, fix a bad math calculation for splpar_strlen. Third, on the rtas_call for get-system-parameter, pass in RTAS_DATA_BUF_SIZE for the rtas_data_buf size, instead of letting random data determine the size. Until recently, we've had a sufficiently large 'random data' value get passed in, so the function just happens to have worked OK. Now it's getting passed a '0', which causes the rtas_call to return success, but no data shows up in the buffer. (oops!). This was found by the LTC test org. This is in a branch of code that only gets run on SPLPAR systems. Tested on power5 Lpar. Signed-off-by: NWill Schmidt <willschm@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: NPaul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

The boot cmdline is parsed in parse_early_param() and parse_args(,unknown_bootoption). And __setup() is used in obsolete_checksetup(). start_kernel() -> parse_args() -> unknown_bootoption() -> obsolete_checksetup() If __setup()'s callback (->setup_func()) returns 1 in obsolete_checksetup(), obsolete_checksetup() thinks a parameter was handled. If ->setup_func() returns 0, obsolete_checksetup() tries other ->setup_func(). If all ->setup_func() that matched a parameter returns 0, a parameter is seted to argv_init[]. Then, when runing /sbin/init or init=app, argv_init[] is passed to the app. If the app doesn't ignore those arguments, it will warning and exit.

GCC 4.2 (or patched earlier GCC) will be able to special case unwinding through frames right above signal trampolines.

This removes statically assigned platform numbers and reworks the powerpc platform probe code to use a better mechanism. With this, board support files can simply declare a new machine type with a macro, and implement a probe() function that uses the flattened device-tree to detect if they apply for a given machine. We now have a machine_is() macro that replaces the comparisons of _machine with the various PLATFORM_* constants. This commit also changes various drivers to use the new macro instead of looking at _machine.
