Handling mailbox interrupts was broken in multiple respects,
the combination of which was hiding the bugs most of the time.
- The ibox interrupt mask was open initially even though there
are no waiters on a newly created SPU.
- Acknowledging the mailbox interrupt did not work because
it is level triggered and the mailbox data is never retrieved
from inside the interrupt handler.
- The interrupt handler delivered interrupts with a disabled
mask if another interrupt is triggered for the same class
but a different mask.
- The poll function did not enable the interrupt if it had not
been enabled, so we might run into the poll timeout if none of
the other bugs saved us and no signal was delivered.
We probably still have a similar problem with blocking
read/write on mailbox files, but that will result in extra
wakeup in the worst case, not in incorrect behaviour.

This patch reduces lock complexity of SPU scheduler, particularly
for involuntary preemptive switches. As a result the new code
does a better job of mapping the highest priority tasks to SPUs.
Lock complexity is reduced by using the system default workqueue
to perform involuntary saves. In this way we avoid nasty lock
ordering problems that the previous code had. A "minimum timeslice"
for SPU contexts is also introduced. The intent here is to avoid
thrashing.
While the new scheduler does a better job at prioritization it
still does nothing for fairness.

- after_prom_start needs to load PHYSICAL_START as the dest address, not 0.

This adds a scheduler for SPUs to make it possible to use
more logical SPUs than physical ones are present in the
system.
Currently, there is no support for preempting a running
SPU thread, they have to leave the SPU by either triggering
an event on the SPU that causes it to return to the
owning thread or by sending a signal to it.
This patch also adds operations that enable accessing an SPU
in either runnable or saved state. We use an RW semaphore
to protect the state of the SPU from changing underneath
us, while we are holding it readable. In order to change
the state, it is acquired writeable and a context save
or restore is executed before downgrading the semaphore

This cleanup patch speeds up the null syscall path on ppc64 by about 3%,
and brings the ppc32 and ppc64 code slightly closer together.
The ppc64 code was checking current_thread_info()->flags twice in the
syscall exit path; once for TIF_SYSCALL_T_OR_A before disabling
interrupts, and then again for TIF_SIGPENDING|TIF_NEED_RESCHED etc after
disabling interrupts. Now we do the same as ppc32 -- check the flags
only once in the fast path, and re-enable interrupts if necessary in the
ptrace case.
The patch abolishes the 'syscall_noerror' member of struct thread_info
and replaces it with a TIF_NOERROR bit in the flags, which is handled in
the slow path. This shortens the syscall entry code, which no longer
needs to clear syscall_noerror.
The patch adds a TIF_SAVE_NVGPRS flag which causes the syscall exit slow
path to save the non-volatile GPRs into a signal frame. This removes the
need for the assembly wrappers around sys_sigsuspend(),
sys_rt_sigsuspend(), et al which existed solely to save those registers
in advance. It also means I don't have to add new wrappers for ppoll()
and pselect(), which is what I was supposed to be doing when I got
distracted into this...
Finally, it unifies the ppc64 and ppc32 methods of handling syscall exit
directly into a signal handler (as required by sigsuspend et al) by
introducing a TIF_RESTOREALL flag which causes _all_ the registers to be
reloaded from the pt_regs by taking the ret_from_exception path, instead
of the normal syscall exit path which stomps on the callee-saved GPRs.
It appears to pass an LTP test run on ppc64, and passes basic testing on
ppc32 too. Brief tests of ptrace functionality with strace and gdb also
appear OK. I wouldn't send it to Linus for 2.6.15 just yet though :)

This patch merges, to some extent, the PPC32 and PPC64 kexec implementations.
We adopt the PPC32 approach of having ppc_md callbacks for the kexec functions.
The current PPC64 implementation becomes the "default" implementation for PPC64
which platforms can select if they need no special treatment.
I've added these default callbacks to pseries/maple/cell/powermac, this means
iSeries no longer supports kexec - but it never worked anyway.
I've renamed PPC32's machine_kexec_simple to default_machine_kexec, inline with
PPC64. Judging by the comments it might be better named machine_kexec_non_of,
or something, but at the moment it's the only implementation for PPC32 so it's
the "default".
Kexec requires machine_shutdown(), which is in machine_kexec.c on PPC32, but we
already have in setup-common.c on powerpc. All this does is call
ppc_md.nvram_sync, which only powermac implements, so instead make
machine_shutdown a ppc_md member and have it call core99_nvram_sync directly
on powermac.
I've also stuck relocate_kernel.S into misc_32.S for powerpc.
Built for ARCH=ppc, and 32 & 64 bit ARCH=powerpc, with KEXEC=y/n. Booted on
P5 LPAR and successfully kexec'ed.

It turns out that commit f9bd170a87
broke the cascade from XICS to i8259 on pSeries machines; specifically

On ppc64, when opening a new hugepage region, we need to make sure any
old normal-page SLBs for the area are flushed on all CPUs. There was
a bug in this logic - after putting the new hugepage area masks into
the thread structure, we copied it into the paca (read by the SLB miss
handler) only on one CPU, not on all. This could cause incorrect SLB
entries to be loaded when a multithreaded program was running
simultaneously on several CPUs. This patch corrects the error,

On most powerpc CPUs, the dcache and icache are not coherent so
between writing and executing a page, the caches must be flushed.
Userspace programs assume pages given to them by the kernel are icache
clean, so we must do this flush between the kernel clearing a page and
it being mapped into userspace for execute. We were not doing this
for hugepages, this patch corrects the situation.
We use the same lazy mechanism as we use for normal pages, delaying
the flush until userspace actually attempts to execute from the page
in question.

Cache info is setup by walking the device tree in initialize_cache_info().
However, icache_flush_range might be called before that, in
slb_initialize()->patch_slb_encoding, which modifies the load immediate
instructions used with SLB fault code.
Not only that, but depending on memory layout, we might take SLB faults
during unflatten_device_tree. So that fault will load an SLB entry that
might not contain the right LLP flags for the segment.
Either we can walk the flattened device tree to setup cache info, or
we can pick the known defaults that are known to work. Doing it in the
flattened device tree is hairier since we need to know the machine type
to know what property to look for, etc, etc.
For now, it's just easier to go with the defaults. Worst thing that
happens from it is that we might waste a few cycles doing too small

This replaces the (in my opinion horrible) VM_UNMAPPED logic with very
explicit support for a "remapped page range" aka VM_PFNMAP. It allows a
VM area to contain an arbitrary range of page table entries that the VM
never touches, and never considers to be normal pages.
Any user of "remap_pfn_range()" automatically gets this new
functionality, and doesn't even have to mark the pages reserved or
indeed mark them any other way. It just works. As a side effect, doing
mmap() on /dev/mem works for arbitrary ranges.

Blah. The patch [0] I recently sent fixing errors with

touches_hugepage_*_range() and within_hugepage_*_range() are also
buggy. Some of the bugs, like those addressed in [0] originated with
commit 7d24f0b8a5 where we tweaked the
semantics of where hugepages are allowed. Other bugs have been there
essentially forever, and are due to the undefined behaviour of '<<'
with shift counts greater than the type width (LOW_ESID_MASK could
return non-zero for high ranges with the right congruences).
The good news is that I now have a testsuite which should pick up
things like this if they creep in again.

Commit 7d24f0b8a5 fixed bugs in the ppc64 SLB

second prepare_hugepage_range() was not updated to correctly handle
hugepages regions which straddled the 4GB point.

Fix a bug in kprobes that can cause an Oops or even a crash when a return
probe is installed on one of the following functions: sys_execve,
do_execve, load_*_binary, flush_old_exec, or flush_thread. The fix is to
remove the call to kprobe_flush_task() in flush_thread(). This fix has
been tested on all architectures for which the return-probes feature has
been implemented (i386, x86_64, ppc64, ia64). Please apply.
BACKGROUND
Up to now, we have called kprobe_flush_task() under two situations: when a
task exits, and when it execs. Flushing kretprobe_instances on exit is
correct because (a) do_exit() doesn't return, and (b) one or more
return-probed functions may be active when a task calls do_exit(). Neither
is the case for sys_execve() and its callees.
Initially, the mistaken call to kprobe_flush_task() on exec was harmless
because we put the "real" return address of each active probed function
back in the stack, just to be safe, when we recycled its
kretprobe_instance. When support for ppc64 and ia64 was added, this safety
measure couldn't be employed, and was eventually dropped even for i386 and
x86_64. sys_execve() and its callees were informally blacklisted for
return probes until this fix was developed.

Although we tend to associate VM_RESERVED with remap_pfn_range, quite a few
drivers set VM_RESERVED on areas which are then populated by nopage. The
PageReserved removal in 2.6.15-rc1 changed VM_RESERVED not to free pages in
zap_pte_range, without changing those drivers not to set it: so their pages
just leak away.
Let's not change miscellaneous drivers now: introduce VM_UNPAGED at the core,
to flag the special areas where the ptes may have no struct page, or if they
have then it's not to be touched. Replace most instances of VM_RESERVED in
core mm by VM_UNPAGED. Force it on in remap_pfn_range, and the sparc and
sparc64 io_remap_pfn_range.
Revert addition of VM_RESERVED to powerpc vdso, it's not needed there. Is it
needed anywhere? It still governs the mm->reserved_vm statistic, and special
vmas not to be merged, and areas not to be core dumped; but could probably be
eliminated later (the drivers are probably specifying it because in 2.4 it
kept swapout off the vma, but in 2.6 we work from the LRU, which these pages
don't get on).
Use the VM_SHM slot for VM_UNPAGED, and define VM_SHM to 0: it serves no
purpose whatsoever, and should be removed from drivers when we clean up.

We currently have a ppc_md member called cpu_irq_down, which disables IRQs
for the cpu in question. The only caller of cpu_irq_down is the kexec code.
On pSeries we need to do more than just teardown IRQs at kexec time, so rename
the ppc_md member to kexec_cpu_down and expand it. The pSeries code needs to
know, and other platforms might too, whether we're doing a crash shutdown (ie.
panicking) or a regular kexec, so add a flag for that.
The pSeries implementation of kexec_cpu_down does an unregister VPA call, which
tells the Hypervisor to stop writing stuff into our pacas. Without this we can
get weird memory corruption bugs when we kexec, caused by the Hypervisor
writing into the first kernel's pacas which happens to be somewhere interesting
in the second kernel's memory.

We had similar problems with other ioctls where userspace did things

This patch moves the vdso's to arch/powerpc, adds support for the 32
bits vdso to the 32 bits kernel, rename systemcfg (finally !), and adds
some new (still untested) routines to both vdso's: clock_gettime() with
support for CLOCK_REALTIME and CLOCK_MONOTONIC, clock_getres() (same
clocks) and get_tbfreq() for glibc to retreive the timebase frequency.
Tom,Steve: The implementation of get_tbfreq() I've done for 32 bits
returns a long long (r3, r4) not a long. This is such that if we ever
add support for >4Ghz timebases on ppc32, the userland interface won't
have to change.
I have tested gettimeofday() using some glibc patches in both ppc32 and
ppc64 kernels using 32 bits userland (I haven't had a chance to test a
64 bits userland yet, but the implementation didn't change and was
tested earlier). I haven't tested yet the new functions.

phbs_remap_io(), which maps the PCI IO space into the kernel virtual space,
is called too early on powermac, and thus doesn't work.
This fixes it by removing the call from all platforms and putting it back
into the ppc64 common code where it belongs, after the actual probing of
the bus.
That means that before that call, only the ISA IO space (if any) is mapped,
any PIO access (from quirks for example) will fail. This happens not to be
a problem for now, but we'll have to rework that code if it becomes one in

This patch consolidates macros used to generate assembly for
compatibility across different CPUs or configs. A new header,
asm-powerpc/asm-compat.h contains the main compatibility macros. It
uses some preprocessor magic to make the macros suitable both for use
in .S files, and in inline asm in .c files. Headers (bitops.h,
uaccess.h, atomic.h, bug.h) which had their own such compatibility
macros are changed to use asm-compat.h.
ppc_asm.h is now for use in .S files *only*, and a #error enforces
that. As such, we're a lot more careless about namespace pollution
here than in asm-compat.h.

The ppc32 and ppc64 versions of cacheflush.h were almost identical.
The two versions of cache.h are fairly similar, except for a bunch of
register definitions in the ppc32 version which probably belong better
elsewhere. This patch, therefore, merges both headers. Notable
points:
- there are several functions in cacheflush.h which exist only
on ppc32 or only on ppc64. These are handled by #ifdef for now, but
these should probably be consolidated, along with the actual code
behind them later.
- Confusingly, both ppc32 and ppc64 have a
flush_dcache_range(), but they're subtly different: it uses dcbf on
ppc32 and dcbst on ppc64, ppc64 has a flush_inval_dcache_range() which
uses dcbf. These too should be merged and consolidated later.
- Also flush_dcache_range() was defined in cacheflush.h on
ppc64, and in cache.h on ppc32. In the merged version it's in
cacheflush.h
- On ppc32 flush_icache_range() is a normal function from
misc.S. On ppc64, it was wrapper, testing a feature bit before
calling __flush_icache_range() which does the actual flush. This
patch takes the ppc64 approach, which amounts to no change on ppc32,
since CPU_FTR_COHERENT_ICACHE will never be set there, but does mean
renaming flush_icache_range() to __flush_icache_range() in
arch/ppc/kernel/misc.S and arch/powerpc/kernel/misc_32.S
- The PReP register info from asm-ppc/cache.h has moved to
arch/ppc/platforms/prep_setup.c
- The 8xx register info from asm-ppc/cache.h has moved to a
new asm-powerpc/reg_8xx.h, included from reg.h
- flush_dcache_all() was defined on ppc32 (only), but was
never called (although it was exported). Thus this patch removes it
from cacheflush.h and from ARCH=powerpc (misc_32.S) entirely. It's
left in ARCH=ppc for now, with the prototype moved to ppc_ksyms.c.

ppc64: EEH Recovery dispatcher thread
This patch adds a mechanism to create recovery threads when an
EEH event is received. Since an EEH freeze state may be detected
within an interrupt context, we need to get out of the interrupt
context before starting recovery. This dispatcher does this in
two steps: first, it uses a workqueue to get out, and then
lanuches a kernel thread, so that the recovery routine can
sleep for exteded periods without upseting the keventd.
A kernel thread is created with each EEH event, rather than
having one long-running daemon started at boot time. This is
because it is anticipated that EEH events will be very rare
(very very rare, ideally) and so its pointless to cluter the
process tables with a daemon that will almost never run.

Make some changes to the NEED_RESCHED and POLLING_NRFLAG to reduce
confusion, and make their semantics rigid. Improves efficiency of
resched_task and some cpu_idle routines.
* In resched_task:
- TIF_NEED_RESCHED is only cleared with the task's runqueue lock held,
and as we hold it during resched_task, then there is no need for an
atomic test and set there. The only other time this should be set is
when the task's quantum expires, in the timer interrupt - this is
protected against because the rq lock is irq-safe.
- If TIF_NEED_RESCHED is set, then we don't need to do anything. It
won't get unset until the task get's schedule()d off.
- If we are running on the same CPU as the task we resched, then set
TIF_NEED_RESCHED and no further action is required.
- If we are running on another CPU, and TIF_POLLING_NRFLAG is *not* set
after TIF_NEED_RESCHED has been set, then we need to send an IPI.
Using these rules, we are able to remove the test and set operation in
resched_task, and make clear the previously vague semantics of
POLLING_NRFLAG.
* In idle routines:
- Enter cpu_idle with preempt disabled. When the need_resched() condition
becomes true, explicitly call schedule(). This makes things a bit clearer
(IMO), but haven't updated all architectures yet.
- Many do a test and clear of TIF_NEED_RESCHED for some reason. According
to the resched_task rules, this isn't needed (and actually breaks the
assumption that TIF_NEED_RESCHED is only cleared with the runqueue lock
held). So remove that. Generally one less locked memory op when switching
to the idle thread.
- Many idle routines clear TIF_POLLING_NRFLAG, and only set it in the inner
most polling idle loops. The above resched_task semantics allow it to be
set until before the last time need_resched() is checked before going into
a halt requiring interrupt wakeup.
Many idle routines simply never enter such a halt, and so POLLING_NRFLAG
can be always left set, completely eliminating resched IPIs when rescheduling
the idle task.
POLLING_NRFLAG width can be increased, to reduce the chance of resched IPIs.

Run idle threads with preempt disabled.
Also corrected a bugs in arm26's cpu_idle (make it actually call schedule()).
How did it ever work before?
Might fix the CPU hotplugging hang which Nigel Cunningham noted.
We think the bug hits if the idle thread is preempted after checking
need_resched() and before going to sleep, then the CPU offlined.
After calling stop_machine_run, the CPU eventually returns from preemption and
into the idle thread and goes to sleep. The CPU will continue executing
previous idle and have no chance to call play_dead.
By disabling preemption until we are ready to explicitly schedule, this bug is
fixed and the idle threads generally become more robust.

Use __do_IRQ instead. The only difference is that every controller
is now assumed to have an end() routine (only xics_8259 did not).

This factors out the common bits of arch/powerpc/xmon/start_*.c into
a new nonstdio.c, and removes some stuff that was supposed to make
xmon's I/O routines somewhat stdio-like but was never used.
It also makes the parsing of the xmon= command line option common,
so that ppc32 can now use xmon={off,on,early} also.

Some powermac machines were crashing in the quiesce firmware call
in prom_init.c because we have just closed the OF stdin device;
notably my 1999 G3 powerbook does this. To avoid this, don't
close the OF stdin device on powermacs.

ppc64 needs a special sysfs probe file for adding new memory.

memmap_init_zone() sets page count to 1. Before 'freeing' the
page, we need to clear the count. This is the same that is done
on free_all_bootmem_core() for memory discovered at boot time.

Add the create_section_mapping() routine to create hptes for memory
sections dynamically added after system boot.

For some stupid reason I can't explain (brown paper bag is at hand), I
removed the check pfn_valid() in the code that does the icache/dcache
coherency on POWER4 and later. That causes us to eventually try to
access non existing struct page when hashing in IO pages.
