Writing a driver using SCLPC on the MPC5200B I detected, that the
intspec arrays to map irqs to Linux virq cannot be const, because the
mapping and xlate functions only take non const pointers. All those
functions do not modify the intspec, so a const pointer could be used.Signed-off-by: Roman Fietze

8xx has not had WRITETHRU due to lack of bits in the pte.
After the recent rewrite of the 8xx TLB code, there are
two bits left. Use one of them to WRITETHRU.Perhaps use the last SW bit to PAGE_SPECIAL or PAGE_FILE?

dcbz, dcbf, dcbi, dcbst and icbi do not set DAR when they
cause a DTLB Error. Dectect this by tagging DAR with 0x00f0

Update the TLB asm to make proper use of _PAGE_DIRY and _PAGE_ACCESSED.
Get rid of _PAGE_HWWRITE too.
Pros:
- I/D TLB Miss never needs to write to the linux pte.
- _PAGE_ACCESSED is only set on TLB Error fixing accounting
- _PAGE_DIRTY is mapped to 0x100, the changed bit, and is set directly
when a page has been made dirty.
- Proper RO/RW mapping of user space.
- Free up 2 SW TLB bits in the linux pte(add back _PAGE_WRITETHRU ?)
- kernel RO/user NA support.
Cons:
- A few more instructions in the TLB Miss routines.Signed-off-by: Joakim Tjernlund

Currently the cpu-allocation/deallocation process comprises of two steps:
- Set the indicators and to update the device tree with DLPAR node
information.- Online/offline the allocated/deallocated CPU.
This is achieved by writing to the sysfs tunables "probe" during allocation
and "release" during deallocation.At the sametime, the userspace can independently online/offline the CPUs of
the system using the sysfs tunable "online".It is quite possible that when a userspace tool offlines a CPU
for the purpose of deallocation and is in the process of updating the device
tree, some other userspace tool could bring the CPU back online by writing to
the "online" sysfs tunable thereby causing the deallocate process to fail.The solution to this is to serialize writes to the "probe/release" sysfs
tunable with the writes to the "online" sysfs tunable.This patch employs a mutex to provide this serialization, which is a no-op on
all architectures except PPC_PSERIESSigned-off-by: Gautham R Shenoy

Currently the cpu-allocation/deallocation on pSeries is a
two step process from the Userspace.- Set the indicators and update the device tree by writing to the sysfs
tunable "probe" during allocation and "release" during deallocation.
- Online / Offline the CPUs of the allocated/would_be_deallocated node by
writing to the sysfs tunable "online".This patch adds kernel code to online/offline the CPUs soon_after/just_before
they have been allocated/would_be_deallocated. This way, the userspace tool
that performs DLPAR operations would only have to deal with one set of sysfs
tunables namely "probe" and release".Signed-off-by: Gautham R Shenoy

Version 3 of this patch is updated with documentation added to
Documentation/ABI. There are no changes to any of the C code from v2
of the patch.In order to support kernel DLPAR of CPU resources we need to provide an
interface to add (probe) and remove (release) the resource from the system.
This patch Creates new generic probe and release sysfs files to facilitate
cpu probe/release. The probe/release interface provides for allowing each
arch to supply their own routines for implementing the backend of adding
and removing cpus to/from the system.This also creates the powerpc specific stubs to handle the arch callouts
from writes to the sysfs files.The creation and use of these files is regulated by the
CONFIG_ARCH_CPU_PROBE_RELEASE option so that only architectures that need the
capability will have the files created.Signed-off-by: Nathan Fontenot

The Dynamic Logical Partitioning capabilities of the powerpc pseries platform
allows for the addition and removal of resources (i.e. CPU's, memory, and PCI
devices) from a partition. The removal of a resource involves
removing the resource's node from the device tree and then returning the
resource to firmware via the rtas set-indicator call. To add a resource, it
is first obtained from firmware via the rtas set-indicator call and then a
new device tree node is created using the ibm,configure-coinnector rtas call
and added to the device tree.This patch provides the kernel DLPAR infrastructure in a new filed named
dlpar.c. The functionality provided is for acquiring and releasing a resource
from firmware and the parsing of information returned from the
ibm,configure-connector rtas call. Additionally this exports the pSeries
reconfiguration notifier chain so that it can be invoked when device tree
updates are made.Signed-off-by: Nathan Fontenot

The hotplug mediabay has tendrils deep into drivers/ide code
which makes a libata port reather difficult. In addition it's
ugly and could be done better.This reworks the interface between the mediabay and the rest
of the world so that:- Any macio_driver can now have a mediabay_event callback
which will be called when that driver sits on a mediabay and
it's been either plugged or unplugged. The device type is
passed as an argument. We can now move all the IDE cruft
into the IDE driver itself- A check_media_bay() function can be used to take a peek
at the type of device currently in the bay if any, a cleaner
variant of the previous function with the same name.- A pair of lock/unlock functions are exposed to allow the
IDE driver to block the hotplug callbacks during the initial
setup and probing of the bay in order to avoid nasty race
conditions.- The mediabay code no longer needs to spin on the status
register of the IDE interface when it detects an IDE device,
this is done just fine by the IDE code itselfOverall, less code, simpler, and allows for another driver
than our old drivers/ide based one.Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt

Currently userspace has no chance to find out which virtual address space we're
in and resolve addresses. While that is a big problem for migration, it's also
unpleasent when debugging, as gdb and the monitor don't work on virtual
addresses.This patch exports enough of the MMU segment state to userspace to make
debugging work and thus also includes the groundwork for migration.Signed-off-by: Alexander Graf

Commit a0668cdc154e54bf0c85182e0535eea237d53146 cleans up the handling
of kmem_caches for allocating various levels of pagetables.
Unfortunately, it conflicts badly with CONFIG_PPC_SUBPAGE_PROT, due to
the latter's cleverly hidden technique of adding some extra allocation
space to the top level page directory to store the extra information
it needs.Since that extra allocation really doesn't fit into the cleaned up
page directory allocating scheme, this patch alters
CONFIG_PPC_SUBPAGE_PROT to instead allocate its struct
subpage_prot_table as part of the mm_context_t.Signed-off-by: David Gibson

Commit a4fe3ce7699bfe1bd88f816b55d42d8fe1dac655 introduced a new
get_user_pages() path for hugepages on powerpc. Unfortunately, there
is a bug in it's loop logic, which can cause it to overrun the end of
the intended region. This came about by copying the logic from the
normal page path, which assumes the address and end parameters have
been pagesize aligned at the top-level. Since they're not *hugepage*
size aligned, the simplistic logic could step over the end of the gup
region without triggering the loop end condition.This patch fixes the bug by using the technique that the normal page
path uses in levels above the lowest to truncate the ending address to
something we know we'll match with.Signed-off-by: David Gibson

Commit 87ec0e98cfdd8b68da6a7f9e70142ffc0e404fbb in kumar's next branch
broke one of my test configs since it looks like Anton forgot about
that mpc832x_rdb platform which still uses the old style probing for
the SPI stuff.I'll let them do a cleaner fix that probably involves changing the
probing method and getting rid of the platform device but for now
this will do to fix it.Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt

When a CPU is offlined on POWER currently, we call rtas_stop_self() and hand
the CPU back to the resource pool. This path is used for DLPAR which will
cause a change in the LPAR configuration which will be visible outside.This patch changes the default state a CPU is put into when it is offlined.
On platforms which support ceding the processor to the hypervisor with
latency hint specifier value, during a cpu offline operation,
instead of calling rtas_stop_self(), we cede the vCPU to the hypervisor
while passing a latency hint specifier value. The Hypervisor can use this hint
to provide better energy savings. Also, during the offline
operation, the control of the vCPU remains with the LPAR as oppposed to
returning it to the resource pool.The patch achieves this by creating an infrastructure to set the
preferred_offline_state() which can be either
- CPU_STATE_OFFLINE: which is the current behaviour of calling
rtas_stop_self()- CPU_STATE_INACTIVE: which cedes the vCPU to the hypervisor with the latency
hint specifier.The codepath which wants to perform a DLPAR operation can set the
preferred_offline_state() of a CPU to CPU_STATE_OFFLINE before invoking
cpu_down().The patch also provides a boot-time command line argument to disable/enable
CPU_STATE_INACTIVE.Signed-off-by: Gautham R Shenoy
