25c8a78b1e [PATCH] powerpc: Fix handling of fpscr on 64-bit
The recent merge of fpu.S broken the handling of fpscr for
ARCH=powerpc and CONFIG_PPC64=y.  FP registers could be corrupted,
leading to strange random application crashes.

The confusion arises, because the thread_struct has (and requires) a
64-bit area to save the fpscr, because we use load/store double
instructions to get it in to/out of the FPU.  However, only the low
32-bits are actually used, so we want to treat it as a 32-bit quantity
when manipulating its bits to avoid extra load/stores on 32-bit.  This
patch replaces the current definition with a structure of two 32-bit
quantities (pad and val), to clarify things as much as is possible.
The 'val' field is used when manipulating bits, the structure itself
is used when obtaining the address for loading/unloading the value
from the FPU.

While we're at it, consolidate the 4 (!) almost identical versions of
cvt_fd() and cvt_df() (arch/ppc/kernel/misc.S,
arch/ppc64/kernel/misc.S, arch/powerpc/kernel/misc_32.S,
arch/powerpc/kernel/misc_64.S) into a single version in fpu.S.  The
new version takes a pointer to thread_struct and applies the correct
offset itself, rather than a pointer to the fpscr field itself, again
to avoid confusion as to which is the correct field to use.

Finally, this patch makes ARCH=ppc64 also use the consolidated fpu.S
code, which it previously did not.

Built for G5 (ARCH=ppc64 and ARCH=powerpc), 32-bit powermac (ARCH=ppc
and ARCH=powerpc) and Walnut (ARCH=ppc, CONFIG_MATH_EMULATION=y).
Booted on G5 (ARCH=powerpc) and things which previously fell over no
longer do.

6cb7bfebb1 [PATCH] powerpc: Merge thread_info.h
Merge ppc32 and ppc64 versions of thread_info.h.  They were pretty
similar already, the chief changes are:

	- Instead of inline asm to implement current_thread_info(),
which needs to be different for ppc32 and ppc64, we use C with an
asm("r1") register variable.  gcc turns it into the same asm as we
used to have for both platforms.
	- We replace ppc32's 'local_flags' with the ppc64
'syscall_noerror' field.  The noerror flag was in fact the only thing
in the local_flags field anyway, so the ppc64 approach is simpler, and
means we only need a load-immediate/store instead of load/mask/store
when clearing the flag.
	- In readiness for 64k pages, when THREAD_SIZE will be less
than a page, ppc64 used kmalloc() rather than get_free_pages() to
allocate the kernel stack.  With this patch we do the same for ppc32,
since there's no strong reason not to.
	- For ppc64, we no longer export THREAD_SHIFT and THREAD_SIZE
via asm-offsets, thread_info.h can now be safely included in asm, as
on ppc32.

Built and booted on G4 Powerbook (ARCH=ppc and ARCH=powerpc) and
Power5 (ARCH=ppc64 and ARCH=powerpc).

1e4a79e045 [PATCH] fix iSeries build for gcc-3.4
gcc 3.4 (at least the build we are using) puts the gcc generated .ident
string into a .note section at the end of the files it compiles (gcc
3.3.3-hammer and gcc 4.0.2 Debian puts it in the .text section).  This
means that the lparmap.s file we produce in the iSeries build may end with
a .note section.  When we include it into head.S, the assembler can no
longer resolve some of the conditional branches since the target label
ends up too far away.  This patch just forces us back to the .text section
after including lparmap.s.

The breakage was caused by my patch "iSeries build with newer assemblers
and compilers" (sha1-id: 2ad5649662).

ec465515ee [PATCH] Move iSeries and common vectors into unused space in head.S
In the ppc64 kernel head.S there is currently quite a lot of unused
space between the naca (at fixed address 0x4000) and the fwnmi data
area (at fixed address 0x7000).  This patch moves various exception
vectors and support code into this region to use the wasted space.

The functions load_up_fpu and load_up_altivec are moved down as well,
since they are essentially continuations of the fp_unavailable_common
and altivec_unavailable_common vectors, respectively.

Likewise, the fwnmi vectors themselves are moved down into this area,
because while the location of the fwnmi data area is fixed by the RPA,
the vectors themselves can be anywhere sufficiently low.

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.

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.

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.

fce0d57403 [PATCH] ppc64: kexec support for ppc64
This patch implements the kexec support for ppc64 platforms.

A couple of notes:

1)  We copy the pages in virtual mode, using the full base kernel
    and a statically allocated stack.   At kexec_prepare time we
    scan the pages and if any overlap our (0, _end[]) range we
    return -ETXTBSY.

    On PowerPC 64 systems running in LPAR (logical partitioning)
    mode, only a small region of memory, referred to as the RMO,
    can be accessed in real mode.  Since Linux runs with only one
    zone of memory in the memory allocator, and it can be orders of
    magnitude more memory than the RMO, looping until we allocate
    pages in the source region is not feasible.  Copying in virtual
    means we don't have to write a hash table generation and call
    hypervisor to insert translations, instead we rely on the pinned
    kernel linear mapping.  The kernel already has move to linked
    location built in, so there is no requirement to load it at 0.

    If we want to load something other than a kernel, then a stub
    can be written to copy a linear chunk in real mode.

2)  The start entry point gets passed parameters from the kernel.
    Slaves are started at a fixed address after copying code from
    the entry point.

    All CPUs get passed their firmware assigned physical id in r3
    (most calling conventions use this register for the first
    argument).

    This is used to distinguish each CPU from all other CPUs.
    Since firmware is not around, there is no other way to obtain
    this information other than to pass it somewhere.

    A single CPU, referred to here as the master and the one executing
    the kexec call, branches to start with the address of start in r4.
    While this can be calculated, we have to load it through a gpr to
    branch to this point so defining the register this is contained
    in is free.  A stack of unspecified size is available at r1
    (also common calling convention).

    All remaining running CPUs are sent to start at absolute address
    0x60 after copying the first 0x100 bytes from start to address 0.
    This convention was chosen because it matches what the kernel
    has been doing itself.  (only gpr3 is defined).

    Note: This is not quite the convention of the kexec bootblock v2
    in the kernel.  A stub has been written to convert between them,
    and we may adjust the kernel in the future to allow this directly
    without any stub.

3)  Destination pages can be placed anywhere, even where they
    would not be accessible in real mode.  This will allow us to
    place ram disks above the RMO if we choose.

placing io mappings in the upper 1TB.  This simplifies the code in a number

187335a4ec [PATCH] ppc64: Detect altivec via firmware on unknown CPUs
This patch adds detection of the Altivec capability of the CPU via the
firmware in addition to the cpu table.  This allows newer CPUs that aren't
in the table to still have working altivec support in the kernel.

It also fixes a problem where if a CPU isn't recognized as having altivec
features, and takes an altivec unavailable exception due to userland
issuing altivec instructions, the kernel would happily enable it and
context switch the registers ...  but not all of them (it would basically
forget vrsave).  With this patch, the kernel will refuse to enable altivec
when the feature isn't detected for the CPU (SIGILL).
