307cfe7153 powerpc: Force page alignment for initrd reserved memory
When using 64K pages with a separate cpio rootfs, U-Boot will align
the rootfs on a 4K page boundary. When the memory is reserved, and
subsequent early memblock_alloc is called, it will allocate memory
between the 64K page alignment and reserved memory. When the reserved
memory is subsequently freed, it is done so by pages, causing the
early memblock_alloc requests to be re-used, which in my case, caused
the device-tree to be clobbered.

This patch forces the reserved memory for initrd to be kernel page
aligned, and will move the device tree if it overlaps with the range
extension of initrd. This patch will also consolidate the identical
function free_initrd_mem() from mm/init_32.c, init_64.c to mm/mem.c,
and adds the same range extension when freeing initrd. free_initrd_mem()
is also moved to the __init section.

Many thanks to Milton Miller for his input on this patch.

208b3a4c19 powerpc: Fix hard CPU IDs detection
commit 9d07bc841c
"powerpc: Properly handshake CPUs going out of boot spin loop"

Would cause a miscalculation of the hard CPU ID. It removes breaking
out of the loop when finding a match with a processor, thus the "i"
used as an index in the intserv array is always incorrect

This broke interrupt on my PowerMac laptop.

85f60ae4ee dt/flattree: explicitly pass command line pointer to early_init_dt_scan_chosen
This patch drops the reference to a global 'cmd_line' variable from
early_init_dt_scan_chosen, and instead passes the pointer to the command
line string via the *data argument.  Each architecture does something
slightly different with the initial command line, so it makes sense for
the architecture to be able to specify the variable name.

32c97689c4 of/flattree: Eliminate need to provide early_init_dt_scan_chosen_arch
This patch refactors the early init parsing of the chosen node so that
architectures aren't forced to provide an empty implementation of
early_init_dt_scan_chosen_arch.  Instead, if an architecture wants to
do something different, it can either use a wrapper function around
early_init_dt_scan_chosen(), or it can replace it altogether.

This patch was written in preparation to adding device tree support to
both x86 ad MIPS.

cd3db0c4ca memblock: Remove rmo_size, burry it in arch/powerpc where it belongs
The RMA (RMO is a misnomer) is a concept specific to ppc64 (in fact
server ppc64 though I hijack it on embedded ppc64 for similar purposes)
and represents the area of memory that can be accessed in real mode
(aka with MMU off), or on embedded, from the exception vectors (which
is bolted in the TLB) which pretty much boils down to the same thing.

We take that out of the generic MEMBLOCK data structure and move it into
arch/powerpc where it belongs, renaming it to "RMA" while at it.

e63075a3c9 memblock: Introduce default allocation limit and use it to replace explicit ones
This introduce memblock.current_limit which is used to limit allocations
from memblock_alloc() or memblock_alloc_base(..., MEMBLOCK_ALLOC_ACCESSIBLE).

The old MEMBLOCK_ALLOC_ANYWHERE changes value from 0 to ~(u64)0 and can still
be used with memblock_alloc_base() to allocate really anywhere.

It is -no-longer- cropped to MEMBLOCK_REAL_LIMIT which disappears.

Note to archs: I'm leaving the default limit to MEMBLOCK_ALLOC_ANYWHERE. I
strongly recommend that you ensure that you set an appropriate limit
during boot in order to guarantee that an memblock_alloc() at any time
results in something that is accessible with a simple __va().

The reason is that a subsequent patch will introduce the ability for
the array to resize itself by reallocating itself. The MEMBLOCK core will
honor the current limit when performing those allocations.

1426d5a3bd powerpc: Dynamically allocate pacas
On 64-bit kernels we currently have a 512 byte struct paca_struct for
each cpu (usually just called "the paca"). Currently they are statically
allocated, which means a kernel built for a large number of cpus will
waste a lot of space if it's booted on a machine with few cpus.

We can avoid that by only allocating the number of pacas we need at
boot. However this is complicated by the fact that we need to access
the paca before we know how many cpus there are in the system.

The solution is to dynamically allocate enough space for NR_CPUS pacas,
but then later in boot when we know how many cpus we have, we free any
unused pacas.

1406bc2f57 of/flattree: use callback to setup initrd from /chosen
At present, the fdt code sets the kernel-wide initrd_start and
initrd_end variables when parsing /chosen. On ARM, we only set these

This change adds an arch hook to setup the initrd from the device
tree:

 void early_init_dt_setup_initrd_arch(unsigned long start,
				      unsigned long end);

The arch-specific code can then setup the initrd however it likes.

6016a363f6 of: unify phandle name in struct device_node
In struct device_node, the phandle is named 'linux_phandle' for PowerPC
and MicroBlaze, and 'node' for SPARC.  There is no good reason for the
difference, it is just an artifact of the code diverging over a couple
of years.  This patch renames both to simply .phandle.

Note: the .node also existed in PowerPC/MicroBlaze, but the only user
seems to be arch/powerpc/platforms/powermac/pfunc_core.c.  It doesn't
look like the assignment between .linux_phandle and .node is
significantly different enough to warrant the separate code paths
unless ibm,phandle properties actually appear in Apple device trees.

I think it is safe to eliminate the old .node property and use
phandle everywhere.

of_get_flat_dt_prop() returns a "void *", so we don't need to cast when
assigning its result to a pointer variable.

6ca4f7494b powerpc: Force memory size to be a multiple of PAGE_SIZE
Ensure that total memory size is page-aligned, because otherwise
mark_bootmem() gets upset.

This error case was triggered by using 64 KiB pages in the kernel
while arch/powerpc/boot/4xx.c arbitrarily reduced the amount of memory
by 4096 (to work around a chip bug that affects the last 256 bytes of
physical memory).

e523f723d6 powerpc: Add of_find_next_cache_node()
We have more than one piece of code that looks up cache nodes manually
using the "l2-cache" property.  Add a common helper routine which does
this and handles ePAPR's "next-level-cache" property as well as
powermac.

549e8152de powerpc: Make the 64-bit kernel as a position-independent executable
This implements CONFIG_RELOCATABLE for 64-bit by making the kernel as
a position-independent executable (PIE) when it is set.  This involves
processing the dynamic relocations in the image in the early stages of
booting, even if the kernel is being run at the address it is linked at,
since the linker does not necessarily fill in words in the image for
which there are dynamic relocations.  (In fact the linker does fill in
such words for 64-bit executables, though not for 32-bit executables,
so in principle we could avoid calling relocate() entirely when we're
running a 64-bit kernel at the linked address.)

The dynamic relocations are processed by a new function relocate(addr),
where the addr parameter is the virtual address where the image will be
run.  In fact we call it twice; once before calling prom_init, and again
when starting the main kernel.  This means that reloc_offset() returns
0 in prom_init (since it has been relocated to the address it is running
at), which necessitated a few adjustments.

This also changes __va and __pa to use an equivalent definition that is
simpler.  With the relocatable kernel, PAGE_OFFSET and MEMORY_START are
constants (for 64-bit) whereas PHYSICAL_START is a variable (and
KERNELBASE ideally should be too, but isn't yet).

With this, relocatable kernels still copy themselves down to physical
address 0 and run there.
