I recently had a BUG_ON() go off spuriously on a gcc 4.0 compiled kernel.
It turns out gcc-4.0 was removing a sign extension while earlier gcc
versions would not. Thinking this to be a compiler bug, I submitted a
report:
http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=23422
It turns out we need to cast the input in order to tell gcc to sign extend
it.
Thanks to Andrew Pinski for his help on this bug.

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.

In yenta_socket, we default to using the resource setting of the CardBus
bridge. However, this is a PCI-bus-centric view of resources and thus needs
to be converted to generic resources first. Therefore, add a call to
pcibios_bus_to_resource() call in between. This function is a mere wrapper on
x86 and friends, however on some others it already exists, is added in this
patch (alpha, arm, ppc, ppc64) or still needs to be provided (parisc -- where
is its pcibios_resource_to_bus() ?).

The kexec boot is not successful on some power machines since all CPUs are
getting removed from global interrupt queue (GIQ) before kexec boot. Some
systems always expect at least one CPU in GIQ. Hence, this patch will make
sure that only secondary CPUs are removed from GIQ.

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.

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.

When the kernel is working well and we want to restart cleanly
kernel_restart is the function to use. But in many instances
the kernel wants to reboot when thing are expected to be working
very badly such as from panic or a software watchdog handler.
This patch adds the function emergency_restart() so that
callers can be clear what semantics they expect when calling
restart. emergency_restart() is expected to be callable
from interrupt context and possibly reliable in even more
trying circumstances.
This is an initial generic implementation for all architectures.

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.

The hvlpevent_queue (formally ItLpQueue) has a member called xInUseWord
which is used for serialising access to the queue. Because it's a word
(ie. 32 bit) there's a custom 32-bit version of test_and_set_bit() or
thereabouts in ItLpQueue.c.
The xInUseWord is not shared with they hypervisor, so we can replace it
with a spinlock and remove the custom code.
There is also another locking mechanism (ItLpQueueInProcess). This is
redundant because it's only manipulated while the lock's held. Remove it.

The iSeries code keeps a pointer to the ItLpQueue in its paca struct. But
all these pointers end up pointing to the one place, ie. xItLpQueue.
So remove the pointer from the paca struct and just refer to xItLpQueue
directly where needed.
The only complication is that the spread_lpevents logic was implemented by
having a NULL lpqueue pointer in the paca on CPUs that weren't supposed to
process events. Instead we just compare the spread_lpevents value to the
processor id to get the same behaviour.

After seeing, at best, "guesses" as to the following kind
of information in several drivers, I decided that we really
need a way for platforms to specifically give advice in this
area for what works best with their PCI controller implementation.
Basically, this new interface gives DMA bursting advice on
PCI. There are three forms of the advice:
1) Burst as much as possible, it is not necessary to end bursts
on some particular boundary for best performance.
2) Burst on some byte count multiple. A DMA burst to some multiple of
number of bytes may be done, but it is important to end the burst
on an exact multiple for best performance.
The best example of this I am aware of are the PPC64 PCI
controllers, where if you end a burst mid-cacheline then
chip has to refetch the data and the IOMMU translations
which hurts performance a lot.
3) Burst on a single byte count multiple. Bursts shall end
exactly on the next multiple boundary for best performance.
Sparc64 and Alpha's PCI controllers operate this way. They
disconnect any device which tries to burst across a cacheline
boundary.
Actually, newer sparc64 PCI controllers do not have this behavior.
That is why the "pdev" is passed into the interface, so I can
add code later to check which PCI controller the system is using
and give advice accordingly.

This is an updated version of Ben's fix-pci-mmap-on-ppc-and-ppc64.patch
which is in 2.6.12-rc4-mm1.
It fixes the patch to work on PPC iSeries, removes some debug printks
at Ben's request, and incorporates your
fix-pci-mmap-on-ppc-and-ppc64-fix.patch also.
Originally from Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>
This patch was discussed at length on linux-pci and so far, the last
iteration of it didn't raise any comment. It's effect is a nop on
architecture that don't define the new pci_resource_to_user() callback
anyway. It allows architecture like ppc who put weird things inside of
PCI resource structures to convert to some different value for user
visible ones. It also fixes mmap'ing of IO space on those archs.

The following is a patch provided by Ananth Mavinakayanahalli that implements
the new PPC64 specific parts of the new function return probe design.
NOTE: Since getting Ananth's patch, I changed trampoline_probe_handler()
to consume each of the outstanding return probem instances (feedback
on my original RFC after Ananth cut a patch), and also added the
arch_init() function (adding arch specific initialization.) I have
cross compiled but have not testing this on a PPC64 machine.
Changes include:
* Addition of kretprobe_trampoline to act as a dummy function for instrumented
functions to return to, and for the return probe infrastructure to place
a kprobe on on, gaining control so that the return probe handler
can be called, and so that the instruction pointer can be moved back
to the original return address.
* Addition of arch_init(), allowing a kprobe to be registered on
kretprobe_trampoline
* Addition of trampoline_probe_handler() which is used as the pre_handler
for the kprobe inserted on kretprobe_implementation. This is the function
that handles the details for calling the return probe handler function
and returning control back at the original return address
* Addition of arch_prepare_kretprobe() which is setup as the pre_handler
for a kprobe registered at the beginning of the target function by
kernel/kprobes.c so that a return probe instance can be setup when
a caller enters the target function. (A return probe instance contains
all the needed information for trampoline_probe_handler to do it's job.)
* Hooks added to the exit path of a task so that we can cleanup any left-over
return probe instances (i.e. if a task dies while inside a targeted function
then the return probe instance was reserved at the beginning of the function
but the function never returns so we need to mark the instance as unused.)

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.

- include/*/kdebug.h comments: change to synchronize_sched() to handle races

- include/linux/list.h comment: change to synchronize_rcu(), since this
comment is for list_del_rcu().
- security/keys/key.c unregister_key_type(): change to synchronize_rcu(),
since this is interacting with RCU read side.
- security/keys/process_keys.c install_session_keyring(): change to

The preempt_count member of struct thread_info is currently either defined
as int, unsigned int or __s32 depending on arch. This patch makes the type
of preempt_count an int on all archs.
Having preempt_count be an unsigned type prevents the catching of
preempt_count < 0 bugs, and using int on some archs and __s32 on others is
not exactely "neat" - much nicer when it's just int all over.
A previous version of this patch was already ACK'ed by Robert Love, and the
only change in this version of the patch compared to the one he ACK'ed is
that this one also makes sure the preempt_count member is consistently

This patch effectively eliminates direct use of pgdat->node_mem_map outside
of the DISCONTIG code. On a flat memory system, these fields aren't
currently used, neither are they on a sparsemem system.
There was also a node_mem_map(nid) macro on many architectures. Its use
along with the use of ->node_mem_map itself was not consistent. It has
been removed in favor of two new, more explicit, arch-independent macros:
pgdat_page_nr(pgdat, pagenr)
nid_page_nr(nid, pagenr)
I called them "pgdat" and "nid" because we overload the term "node" to mean
"NUMA node", "DISCONTIG node" or "pg_data_t" in very confusing ways. I
believe the newer names are much clearer.
These macros can be overridden in the sparsemem case with a theoretically
slower operation using node_start_pfn and pfn_to_page(), instead. We could
make this the only behavior if people want, but I don't want to change too
much at once. One thing at a time.
This patch removes more code than it adds.
Compile tested on alpha, alpha discontig, arm, arm-discontig, i386, i386
generic, NUMAQ, Summit, ppc64, ppc64 discontig, and x86_64. Full list
here: http://sr71.net/patches/2.6.12/2.6.12-rc1-mhp2/configs/
Boot tested on NUMAQ, x86 SMP and ppc64 power4/5 LPARs.

For I/O DLPAR to work properly, the kernel needs to allow for dynamic
assignment of the irq field of the pci_dev structure upon dynamic bus
addition. This patch moves the assignment of that field from
pSeries_final_fixup() to pcibios_fixup_bus(), which enables dynamic
assignment for the children of a newly added bus.
Currently, pci_devs receive their irq numbers in one of two ways. The
irq line is either read at boot for all pci_devs, or read by the rpaphp
module at slot enable time. The latter is no longer sufficient for
DLPAR addition of slots that don't qualify as PCI-hotplug capable.
This solution handles the cases of boot and dynamic add.

This adds the basic support for running on BPA machines.
So far, this is only the IBM workstation, and it will
not run on others without a little more generalization.
It should be possible to configure a kernel for any
combination of CONFIG_PPC_BPA with any of the other
multiplatform targets.
