This patch adds an idle member to the ppc_md structure and calls it from
cpu_idle(). If a platform leaves ppc_md.idle as null it will get the default
idle loop default_idle().Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman

When registering the hvc console port, register a list of ops (read and write)
to go with it, instead of calling fixed function names.This allows different ports to encode the data differently.

Remove all the vio device driver code from hvc_console.c
This will allow us to separate hvsi, hvc, and allow hvc_console to be used
without the ppc64 vio layer.Signed-off-by: Milton Miller

Separate the console setup routines of the hvc_console and the vio layer.
Remove the call to find_init_vty from hvc_console.c.
Fail the setup routine if the console doesn't exist, but register the console
again when the specified channel is instantiated. This scheme maintains the
print buffer semantics while eliminating callout and call back for the console

Have the hvc console code try to pull characters immediately when receiving an

Use the vterm numbers to match the vio devices being probed with the indices
already allocated via the console initcall function hvc_find_vtys.The old code required hvc_find_vtys to "guess" the matching devices the vio
subsystem would find and its probe order.Signed-off-by: Milton Miller

Milton Miller has done a lot of work to clean up our hvc_console code.
One of the important things the following patch series does is separate the
VIO layer from the hvc_console code. With the VIO specific code removed any
ppc64 platform, or even any architecture, can use hvc_console as a generic
polling console. You simply have to supply a get_chars and put_chars method
and hvc_console does the rest of the work. You can even use it for an
interrupt driven console.This patch:
Rearrange the code in drivers/char/hvc_console.c to make future patches
smaller. No actual code changes, just ordering of the functions in the file.Signed-off-by: Milton Miller

Enable the runlatch at the start of each exception. Unfortunately we are out
of space in the 0x300 handler, so I added it a bit later.The SPR write is fairly expensive, perhaps we should cache the runlatch state
in the paca and avoid the write when possible.We don't need to turn the runlatch off, we do that in the idle loop. Better
to take the hit in the idle loop than for each exception exit.Signed-off-by: Anton Blanchard

Using the syntax:
make dir/module.kokbuild now allows one to build a module including the final link stage.
This is usefull when one only wants to compile a single module and thus do
not have to wait until a full kernel has finished compiling. Tested by:

We now print statistics when invoking the OOM killer, however this
information is not rate limited and you can get into situations where the
console is continually spammed.For example, when a task is exiting the OOM killer will simply return
(waiting for that task to exit and clear up memory). If the VM continually
calls back into the OOM killer we get thousands of copies of show_mem() on
the console.Use printk_ratelimit() to quieten it.

OCFS2 wants to mark an inode which has been orphaned by another node so
that during final iput it takes the correct path through the VFS and can
pass through the OCFS2 delete_inode callback. Since i_nlink can get out of
date with other nodes, the best way I see to accomplish this is by clearing
i_nlink on those inodes at drop_inode time. Other than this small amount
of work, nothing different needs to happen, so I think it would be cleanest
to be able to just call generic_drop_inode at the end of the OCFS2
drop_inode callback.Signed-off-by: Mark Fasheh

Jesse Barnes provided the original version of this patch months ago, but
other changes kept conflicting with it, so it got deferred. Greg Edwards
dug it out of obscurity just over a week ago, and almost immediately
another conflicting patch appeared (Bob Picco's memory-less nodes).I've resolved the conflicts and got it running again. CONFIG_SGI_TIOCX
is set to "y" in defconfig, which causes a Tiger to not boot (oops in
tiocx_init). But that can be resolved later ... get this in now before it
gets stale again.Signed-off-by: Tony Luck

There is a slight disagreement between setup-bus.c code and traditional
x86 PCI setup wrt which recourses are invalid vs resources that are free
for further allocations.In particular, in the setup-bus.c, if we failed to allocate some resource,
we nullify "start" and "flags" fields, but *not* the "end" one.But x86 pcibios_enable_resources() does the following check:
if (!r->start && r->end) {
printk(KERN_ERR "PCI: Device %s not available because of resource collisions\n", pci_name(dev));
return -EINVAL;which means that the device owning the offending resource cannot be
enabled.In particular, this breaks cardbus behind the normal decode p2p bridge -
the cardbus code from setup-bus.c requests rather large IO and MEM
windows, and if it fails, the socket is completely unavailable. Which
is wrong, as the yenta code is capable to allocate smaller windows.Signed-off-by: Ivan Kokshaysky

I reworked how nodes with only CPUs are treated. The patch below seems
simpler to me and has eliminated the complicated routine
reassign_cpu_only_nodes. There isn't any longer the requirement
to modify ACPI NUMA information which was in large part the
complexity introduced in reassign_cpu_only_nodes.This patch will produce a different number of nodes. For example,
reassign_cpu_only_nodes would reduce two CPUonly nodes and one memory node
configuration to one memory+CPUs node configuration. This patch
doesn't change the number of nodes which means the user will see three. Two
nodes without memory and one node with all the memory.While doing this patch, I noticed that early_nr_phys_cpus_node isn't serving
any useful purpose. It is called once in find_pernode_space but the value
isn't used to computer pernode space.Signed-off-by: bob.picco
