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.

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.

powerpc: Fix CHRP booting - needs a define_machine call
powerpc: iSeries has only 256 IRQs
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.

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.

A bug in the RTAS services incorrectly interprets some bits in the CR

Note that enter_rtas() will not set any bits in CR4 before calling RTAS.
Also note that the 32 bit version of enter_rtas() should have the same
work around even though the chances of hitting the bug are much smaller
due to the lack of DLPAR on 32 bit kernels. However, my assembly skills
are a bit rusty and the 32 bit code doesn't seem to follow the conventions

The kernel's implementation of notifier chains is unsafe. There is no
protection against entries being added to or removed from a chain while the
chain is in use. The issues were discussed in this thread:
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=113018709002036&w=2
We noticed that notifier chains in the kernel fall into two basic usage
classes:
"Blocking" chains are always called from a process context
and the callout routines are allowed to sleep;
"Atomic" chains can be called from an atomic context and
the callout routines are not allowed to sleep.
We decided to codify this distinction and make it part of the API. Therefore
this set of patches introduces three new, parallel APIs: one for blocking
notifiers, one for atomic notifiers, and one for "raw" notifiers (which is
really just the old API under a new name). New kinds of data structures are
used for the heads of the chains, and new routines are defined for
registration, unregistration, and calling a chain. The three APIs are
explained in include/linux/notifier.h and their implementation is in
kernel/sys.c.
With atomic and blocking chains, the implementation guarantees that the chain
links will not be corrupted and that chain callers will not get messed up by
entries being added or removed. For raw chains the implementation provides no
guarantees at all; users of this API must provide their own protections. (The
idea was that situations may come up where the assumptions of the atomic and
blocking APIs are not appropriate, so it should be possible for users to
handle these things in their own way.)
There are some limitations, which should not be too hard to live with. For
atomic/blocking chains, registration and unregistration must always be done in
a process context since the chain is protected by a mutex/rwsem. Also, a
callout routine for a non-raw chain must not try to register or unregister
entries on its own chain. (This did happen in a couple of places and the code
had to be changed to avoid it.)
Since atomic chains may be called from within an NMI handler, they cannot use
spinlocks for synchronization. Instead we use RCU. The overhead falls almost
entirely in the unregister routine, which is okay since unregistration is much
less frequent that calling a chain.
Here is the list of chains that we adjusted and their classifications. None
of them use the raw API, so for the moment it is only a placeholder.

We currently have a hack to flip the boot cpu and its secondary thread
to logical cpuid 0 and 1. This means the logical - physical mapping will
differ depending on which cpu is boot cpu. This is most apparent on
kexec, where we might kexec on any cpu and therefore change the mapping
from boot to boot.
The patch below does a first pass early on to work out the logical cpuid
of the boot thread. We then fix up some paca structures to match.
Ive also removed the boot_cpuid_phys variable for ppc64, to be

The address of variable val in prom_init_stdout is passed to prom_getprop.
prom_getprop casts the pointer to u32 and passes it to call_prom in the hope
that OpenFirmware stores something there.
But the pointer is truncated in the lower bits and the expected value is
stored somewhere else.
In my testing I had a stackpointer of 0x0023e6b4. val was at offset 120,
wich has address 0x0023e72c. But the value passed to OF was 0x0023e728.

...
c00000000040b798: 90 1b 00 0c stw r0,12(r27)
...
The stackpointer came from 32bit code.
The chain was yaboot -> zImage -> vmlinux
PowerMac OpenFirmware does appearently not handle the ELF sections
correctly. If yaboot was compiled in
/usr/src/packages/BUILD/lilo-10.1.1/yaboot, then the stackpointer is
unaligned. But the stackpointer is correct if yaboot is compiled in
/tmp/yaboot.

The recent changes to keep gettimeofday in sync with xtime had the side
effect that it was occasionally possible for the time reported by
gettimeofday to go back by a microsecond. There were two reasons:
(1) when we recalculated the offsets used by gettimeofday every 2^31
timebase ticks, we lost an accumulated fractional microsecond, and
(2) because the update is done some time after the notional start of
jiffy, if ntp is slowing the clock, it is possible to see time go backwards
when the timebase factor gets reduced.
This fixes it by (a) slowing the gettimeofday clock by about 1us in
2^31 timebase ticks (a factor of less than 1 in 3.7 million), and (b)
adjusting the timebase offsets in the rare case that the gettimeofday
result could possibly go backwards (i.e. when ntp is slowing the clock
and the timer interrupt is late). In this case the adjustment will
reduce to zero eventually because of (a).

A careful reading of the recent changes to the system call entry/exit
paths revealed several problems, plus some things that could be
simplified and improved:
* 32-bit wasn't testing the _TIF_NOERROR bit in the syscall fast exit
path, so it was only doing anything with it once it saw some other
bit being set. In other words, the noerror behaviour would apply to
the next system call where we had to reschedule or deliver a signal,
which is not necessarily the current system call.
* 32-bit wasn't doing the call to ptrace_notify in the syscall exit
path when the _TIF_SINGLESTEP bit was set.
* _TIF_RESTOREALL was in both _TIF_USER_WORK_MASK and
_TIF_PERSYSCALL_MASK, which is odd since _TIF_RESTOREALL is only set
by system calls. I took it out of _TIF_USER_WORK_MASK.
* On 64-bit, _TIF_RESTOREALL wasn't causing the non-volatile registers
to be restored (unless perhaps a signal was delivered or the syscall
was traced or single-stepped). Thus the non-volatile registers
weren't restored on exit from a signal handler. We probably got
away with it mostly because signal handlers written in C wouldn't
alter the non-volatile registers.
* On 32-bit I simplified the code and made it more like 64-bit by
making the syscall exit path jump to ret_from_except to handle
preemption and signal delivery.
* 32-bit was calling do_signal unnecessarily when _TIF_RESTOREALL was
set - but I think because of that 32-bit was actually restoring the
non-volatile registers on exit from a signal handler.
* I changed the order of enabling interrupts and saving the
non-volatile registers before calling do_syscall_trace_leave; now we
enable interrupts first.

On logically-partitioned machines the first element of the reg

i.e. the memory that the processor can access in real mode. On other

This implements accurate task and cpu time accounting for 64-bit
powerpc kernels. Instead of accounting a whole jiffy of time to a
task on a timer interrupt because that task happened to be running at
the time, we now account time in units of timebase ticks according to
the actual time spent by the task in user mode and kernel mode. We
also count the time spent processing hardware and software interrupts
accurately. This is conditional on CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING. If
that is not set, we do tick-based approximate accounting as before.
To get this accurate information, we read either the PURR (processor
utilization of resources register) on POWER5 machines, or the timebase
on other machines on
* each entry to the kernel from usermode
* each exit to usermode
* transitions between process context, hard irq context and soft irq
context in kernel mode
* context switches.
On POWER5 systems with shared-processor logical partitioning we also
read both the PURR and the timebase at each timer interrupt and
context switch in order to determine how much time has been taken by
the hypervisor to run other partitions ("steal" time). Unfortunately,
since we need values of the PURR on both threads at the same time to
accurately calculate the steal time, and since we can only calculate
steal time on a per-core basis, the apportioning of the steal time
between idle time (time which we ceded to the hypervisor in the idle
loop) and actual stolen time is somewhat approximate at the moment.
This is all based quite heavily on what s390 does, and it uses the
generic interfaces that were added by the s390 developers,
i.e. account_system_time(), account_user_time(), etc.
This patch doesn't add any new interfaces between the kernel and
userspace, and doesn't change the units in which time is reported to
userspace by things such as /proc/stat, /proc/<pid>/stat, getrusage(),
times(), etc. Internally the various task and cpu times are stored in
timebase units, but they are converted to USER_HZ units (1/100th of a
second) when reported to userspace. Some precision is therefore lost
but there should not be any accumulating error, since the internal
accumulation is at full precision.

some time. This involves getting the timebase and performing some
simple arithmetic to convert it to seconds and microseconds. However,
the factor and offset used there weren't being updated when NTP
varied the tick length using adjtimex. 64-bit didn't notice the
problem because it had a hook in the 32-bit adjtimex compat routine
that attempted to work out what the generic timekeeping code would
do and alter the factor and offset to match. However, that code
was very complex and it wasn't clear that it still matched what the
generic code would do.
Now we use the generic current_tick_length() routine that was recently
added to check that the current tick will be as long as we expect; if
not we recompute the factor and offset. This keeps gettimeofday and
xtime in sync. In addition we check that gettimeofday hasn't got ahead
of xtime on each timer interrupt; if it has, we resync.

So make lmb_alloc() panic internally, to catch bugs at the source. The few

The first generation of PCI powermacs had a host bridge called /chaos
which was for all intents and purposes a PCI host bridge, but has a
device_type of "vci" in the device tree (presumably it's not really
PCI at the hardware level or something).
The OF parsing stuff in arch/powerpc/kernel/prom_parse.c currently
doesn't recognize it as a PCI bridge, which means that controlfb.c
can't get its device addresses.
This makes prom_parse.c recognize a device_type of "vci" as indicating
a PCI host bridge. With this, controlfb works again.

The glibc folks want to use AT_PLATFORM to select between possible
alternative versions of shared libraries. This commit makes the kernel
supply an AT_PLATFORM string that indicates what class of processor
we are running on. Processors with the same set of user-level
instructions and roughly the same instruction scheduling characteristics
are given the same AT_PLATFORM value; for example, 821, 823 and 860
are all reported as "ppc823", and 7447, 7447A, 7448, 7450, 7451, 7455
are all called "ppc7450".
The intention is that the AT_PLATFORM values match the values that
gcc accepts for the -mcpu= option. For values which are numeric
(e.g. -mcpu=750), "ppc" has been prepended.
This also adds a PPC_FEATURE_BOOKE bit to the AT_HWCAP value and sets
it for the 440 family and the Freescale 85xx family.

At present the lppaca - the structure shared with the iSeries
hypervisor and phyp - is contained within the PACA, our own low-level

removes it, making a separate array of lppaca structures.
This saves approximately 500*NR_CPUS bytes of image size and kernel
memory, because we don't need aligning gap between the Linux and

extra level of dereference in many accesses to the lppaca.

This patch consolidates the variety of macros used for loading 32 or

idea is to make the set of macros consistent across 32 and 64 bit and
to make it more obvious which is the appropriate one to use in a given
situation. The new macros and their semantics are described in the
comments in ppc_asm.h.
In the process, we change several places that were unnecessarily using
immediate loads on ppc64 to use the GOT/TOC. Likewise we cleanup a
couple of places where we were clumsily subtracting PAGE_OFFSET with

Heikki Lindholm pointed out that there was a potential race with the
lazy CPU state (FP, VR, EVR) stuff if preempt is enabled. The race
is that in the process of restoring FP state on sigreturn, the task
gets preempted by a user task that wants to use the FPU. It will take
an FP unavailable exception, which will write the current FPU state
to the thread_struct, overwriting the values which sigreturn has
stored. Note that this can only happen on UP since we don't implement
lazy CPU state on SMP.
The fix is to flush the lazy CPU state before updating the
thread_struct. To do this we re-use the flush_lazy_cpu_state()
function from process.c.

The current ppc64 per cpu data implementation is quite slow. eg:
lhz 11,18(13) /* smp_processor_id() */
ld 9,.LC63-.LCTOC1(30) /* per_cpu__variable_name */
ld 8,.LC61-.LCTOC1(30) /* __per_cpu_offset */
sldi 11,11,3 /* form index into __per_cpu_offset */
mr 10,9
ldx 9,11,8 /* __per_cpu_offset[smp_processor_id()] */
ldx 0,10,9 /* load per cpu data */
5 loads for something that is supposed to be fast, pretty awful. One
reason for the large number of loads is that we have to synthesize 2
64bit constants (per_cpu__variable_name and __per_cpu_offset).
By putting __per_cpu_offset into the paca we can avoid the 2 loads
associated with it:
ld 11,56(13) /* paca->data_offset */
ld 9,.LC59-.LCTOC1(30) /* per_cpu__variable_name */
ldx 0,9,11 /* load per cpu data
Longer term we can should be able to do even better than 3 loads.
If per_cpu__variable_name wasnt a 64bit constant and paca->data_offset
was in a register we could cut it down to one load. A suggestion from
Rusty is to use gcc's __thread extension here. In order to do this we
would need to free up r13 (the __thread register and where the paca
currently is). So far Ive had a few unsuccessful attempts at doing that :)
The patch also allocates per cpu memory node local on NUMA machines.
This patch from Rusty has been sitting in my queue _forever_ but stalled
when I hit the compiler bug. Sorry about that.
Finally I also only allocate per cpu data for possible cpus, which comes
straight out of the x86-64 port. On a pseries kernel (with NR_CPUS == 128)
and 4 possible cpus we see some nice gains:
total used free shared buffers cached
Mem: 4012228 212860 3799368 0 0 162424
total used free shared buffers cached
Mem: 4016200 212984 3803216 0 0 162424
A saving of 3.75MB. Quite nice for smaller machines. Note: we now have
to be careful of per cpu users that touch data for !possible cpus.
At this stage it might be worth making the NUMA and possible cpu
optimisations generic, but per cpu init is done so early we have to be
careful that all architectures have their possible map setup correctly.

build fs/compat_ioctl.c as a normal object and kill tons of cruft. We need a
special do_ioctl32_pointer handler for s390 so the compat_ptr call is done.
This is not needed but harmless on all other architectures. Also remove some
superflous includes in fs/compat_ioctl.c
Tested on ppc64.
[1] parisc still had it's PPP handler left, which is not fully correct
for ppp and besides that ppp uses the generic SIOCPRIV ioctl so it'd
kick in for all netdevice users. We can introduce a proper handler
in one of the next patch series by adding a compat_ioctl method to
struct net_device but for now let's just kill it - parisc doesn't
compile in mainline anyway and I don't want this to block this
patchset.

On ppc64, we independently define VMALLOCBASE and VMALLOC_START to be
the same thing: the start of the vmalloc() area at 0xd000000000000000.
VMALLOC_START is used much more widely, including in generic code, so
this patch gets rid of the extraneous VMALLOCBASE.
This does require moving the definitions of region IDs from page_64.h
to pgtable.h, but they don't clearly belong in the former rather than
the latter, anyway. While we're moving them, clean up the definitions
of the REGION_IDs:
- Abolish REGION_SIZE, it was only used once, to define
REGION_MASK anyway
- Define the specific region ids in terms of the REGION_ID()
macro.
- Define KERNEL_REGION_ID in terms of PAGE_OFFSET rather than
KERNELBASE. It amounts to the same thing, but conceptually this is
about the region of the linear mapping (which starts at PAGE_OFFSET)
rather than of the kernel text itself (which is at KERNELBASE).

There's a few places where we need to fix things up for the kernel to work
if it's linked at 32MB:
- platforms/powermac/smp.c
To start secondary cpus on pmac we patch the reset vector, which is fine.
Except if we're above 32MB we don't have enough bits for an absolute branch,
it needs to relative.
- kernel/head_64.s
- A few branches in the cpu hold code need to load the full target address
and do a bctr.
- after_prom_start needs to load PHYSICAL_START as the dest address, not 0.
- The exception prolog needs to load the low word of the target adddress,
not just the low halfword.
- Fixup handling of the initial stab address.

This patch makes PAGE_OFFSET the constant, it'll always be 0xC * 1

To get a physical address from a virtual one you subtract PAGE_OFFSET,
_not_ KERNELBASE.
KERNELBASE is the virtual address of the start of the kernel, it's
often the same as PAGE_OFFSET, but _might not be_.
