ce21795275 [PATCH] ppc64: Consolidate some macros
The only caller of chunk_offset() and abs_chunk() is phys_to_abs(), so
fold the former two into the latter.

34c8f6961f [PATCH] ppc64: msChunks cleanups
Chunks are 256KB, so use constants for the size/shift/mask, rather than
getting them from the msChunks struct. The iSeries debugger (??) might still
need access to the values in the msChunks struct, so we keep them around
for now, but set them from the constant values.

Replace msChunks_entry typedef with regular u32.

Simplify msChunks_alloc() to manipulate klimit directly, rather than via
a parameter.

Move msChunks_alloc() and msChunks into iSeries_setup.c, as that's where
they're used.

The msChunks code was written to work on pSeries, but now it's only used on
iSeries. This means there's no need to do PTRRELOC anymore, so remove it all.

A few places were getting "extern reloc_offset()" from abs_addr.h, move it
into system.h instead.

7a6af5e380 [PATCH] ppc64: remove firmware features from cpu_spec
The firmware_features field of struct cpu_spec should really be a separate

bitmask is constructed independently.  By removing it, we save 112 bytes
from the cpu_specs array and we access the bitmask directly instead of via

2e2446ea07 [PATCH] Remove NACA fixed address constraint
Comments in head.S suggest that the iSeries naca has a fixed address,
because tools expect to find it there.  The only tool which appears to
access the naca is addRamDisk, but both the in-kernel version and the
version used in RHEL and SuSE in fact locate the NACA the same way as
the hypervisor does, by following the pointer in the hvReleaseData
structure.

Since the requirement for a fixed address seems to be obsolete, this
patch removes the naca from head.S and replaces it with a normal C
initializer.

For good measure, it removes an old version of addRamDisk.c which was
sitting, unused, in the ppc32 tree.

e28f7faf05 [PATCH] Four level pagetables for ppc64
Implement 4-level pagetables for ppc64

This patch implements full four-level page tables for ppc64, thereby
extending the usable user address range to 44 bits (16T).

The patch uses a full page for the tables at the bottom and top level,
and a quarter page for the intermediate levels.  It uses full 64-bit
pointers at every level, thus also increasing the addressable range of
physical memory.  This patch also tweaks the VSID allocation to allow
matching range for user addresses (this halves the number of available
contexts) and adds some #if and BUILD_BUG sanity checks.

32818c2eb6 [PATCH] ppc64: Fix issue with gcc 4.0 compiled kernels
I recently had a BUG_ON() go off spuriously on a gcc 4.0 compiled kernel.
It turns out gcc-4.0 was removing a sign extension while earlier gcc
versions would not.  Thinking this to be a compiler bug, I submitted a
report:

http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=23422

It turns out we need to cast the input in order to tell gcc to sign extend
it.

Thanks to Andrew Pinski for his help on this bug.

2ad5649662 [PATCH] iSeries build with newer assemblers and compilers
Paulus suggested that we put xLparMap in its own .c file so that we can
generate a .s file to be included into head.S.  This doesn't get around
the problem of having it at a fixed address, but it makes it more
palatable.

It would be good if this could be included in 2.6.13 as it solves our
build problems with various versions of binutils and gcc.  In
particular, it allows us to build an iSeries kernel on Debian unstable
using their biarch compiler.

This has been built and booted on iSeries and built for pSeries and g5.

is its pcibios_resource_to_bus() ?).

488f84994c [PATCH] ppc64: remove another fixed address constraint
Presently the LparMap, one of the structures the kernel shares with the
legacy iSeries hypervisor has a fixed offset address in head.S.  This patch
changes this so the LparMap is a normally initialized structure, without
fixed address.  This allows us to use macros to compute some of the values
in the structure, which wasn't previously possible because the assembler
always uses signed-% which gets the wrong answers for the computations in
question.

Unfortunately, a gcc bug means that doing this requires another structure
(hvReleaseData) to be initialized in asm instead of C, but on the whole the
result is cleaner than before.

533f08172e [PATCH] ppc64: dynamically allocate segment tables
PPC64 machines before Power4 need a segment table page allocated for each
CPU.  Currently these are allocated statically in a big array in head.S for
all CPUs.  The segment tables need to be in the first segment (so
do_stab_bolted doesn't take a recursive fault on the stab itself), but
other than that there are no constraints which require the stabs for the
secondary CPUs to be statically allocated.

This patch allocates segment tables dynamically during boot, using
lmb_alloc() to ensure they are within the first 256M segment.  This reduces
the kernel image size by 192k...

Tested on RS64 iSeries, POWER3 pSeries, and POWER5.

7c9034735e [PATCH] Add emergency_restart()
When the kernel is working well and we want to restart cleanly
kernel_restart is the function to use.   But in many instances
the kernel wants to reboot when thing are expected to be working
very badly such as from panic or a software watchdog handler.

This patch adds the function emergency_restart() so that
callers can be clear what semantics they expect when calling
restart.  emergency_restart() is expected to be callable
from interrupt context and possibly reliable in even more
trying circumstances.

This is an initial generic implementation for all architectures.

bea248fb30 [PATCH] ppc64: Remove lpqueue pointer from the paca on iSeries
The iSeries code keeps a pointer to the ItLpQueue in its paca struct. But
all these pointers end up pointing to the one place, ie. xItLpQueue.

So remove the pointer from the paca struct and just refer to xItLpQueue
directly where needed.

The only complication is that the spread_lpevents logic was implemented by
having a NULL lpqueue pointer in the paca on CPUs that weren't supposed to
process events. Instead we just compare the spread_lpevents value to the
processor id to get the same behaviour.

12822bc272 [PATCH] headers: enable ppc64 ___arch__swab16 and ___arch__swab32
This patch cleans up asm-ppc64/byteorder.h to enable ___arch__swab16 and
___arch__swab32 which are marked TODO currently.  It removes ___arch__swab64
because ppc64 does not have short instruction combinations for swab64, the
recent gcc generates enough smart code that is equivalent to hand assembled
code under my tests.

e24c2d963a [PATCH] PCI: DMA bursting advice
After seeing, at best, "guesses" as to the following kind
of information in several drivers, I decided that we really
need a way for platforms to specifically give advice in this
area for what works best with their PCI controller implementation.

Basically, this new interface gives DMA bursting advice on
PCI.  There are three forms of the advice:

1) Burst as much as possible, it is not necessary to end bursts
   on some particular boundary for best performance.

2) Burst on some byte count multiple.  A DMA burst to some multiple of
   number of bytes may be done, but it is important to end the burst
   on an exact multiple for best performance.

   The best example of this I am aware of are the PPC64 PCI
   controllers, where if you end a burst mid-cacheline then
   chip has to refetch the data and the IOMMU translations
   which hurts performance a lot.

3) Burst on a single byte count multiple.  Bursts shall end
   exactly on the next multiple boundary for best performance.

   Sparc64 and Alpha's PCI controllers operate this way.  They
   disconnect any device which tries to burst across a cacheline
   boundary.

   Actually, newer sparc64 PCI controllers do not have this behavior.
   That is why the "pdev" is passed into the interface, so I can
   add code later to check which PCI controller the system is using
   and give advice accordingly.
