powerpc/32: Remove CURRENT_THREAD_INFO and rename TI_CPU

2019-02-23T11:31:40+00:00

Now that thread_info is similar to task_struct, its address is in r2
so CURRENT_THREAD_INFO() macro is useless. This patch removes it.

This patch also moves the 'tovirt(r2, r2)' down just before the
reactivation of MMU translation, so that we keep the physical address
of 'current' in r2 until then. It avoids a few calls to tophys().

At the same time, as the 'cpu' field is not anymore in thread_info,
TI_CPU is renamed TASK_CPU by this patch.

It also allows to get rid of a couple of
'#ifdef CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING_NATIVE' as ACCOUNT_CPU_USER_ENTRY()
and ACCOUNT_CPU_USER_EXIT() are empty when
CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING_NATIVE is not defined.

powerpc: regain entire stack space

2019-02-23T11:31:40+00:00

thread_info is not anymore in the stack, so the entire stack
can now be used.

There is also no risk anymore of corrupting task_cpu(p) with a
stack overflow so the patch removes the test.

When doing this, an explicit test for NULL stack pointer is
needed in validate_sp() as it is not anymore implicitely covered
by the sizeof(thread_info) gap.

In the meantime, with the previous patch all pointers to the stacks
are not anymore pointers to thread_info so this patch changes them
to void*

powerpc: Don't use CURRENT_THREAD_INFO to find the stack

2019-02-23T11:31:40+00:00

A few places use CURRENT_THREAD_INFO, or the C version, to find the
stack. This will no longer work with THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK so change
them to find the stack in other ways.

powerpc: call_do_[soft]irq() takes a pointer to the stack

2019-02-23T11:31:40+00:00

The purpose of the pointer given to call_do_softirq() and
call_do_irq() is to point the new stack. Currently that's the same
thing as the thread_info, but won't be with THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK.

So change the parameter to void* and rename it 'sp'.

powerpc: Only use task_struct 'cpu' field on SMP

2019-02-23T11:31:39+00:00

When moving to CONFIG_THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK, the thread_info 'cpu' field
gets moved into task_struct and only defined when CONFIG_SMP is set.

This patch ensures that TI_CPU is only used when CONFIG_SMP is set and
that task_struct 'cpu' field is not used directly out of SMP code.

powerpc: change CONFIG_6xx to CONFIG_PPC_BOOK3S_32

2018-11-26T11:33:37+00:00

Today we have:

config PPC_BOOK3S_32
	bool "512x/52xx/6xx/7xx/74xx/82xx/83xx/86xx"
	[depends on PPC32 within a choice]

config PPC_BOOK3S
	def_bool y
	depends on PPC_BOOK3S_32 || PPC_BOOK3S_64

config 6xx
	def_bool y
	depends on PPC32 && PPC_BOOK3S

6xx is therefore redundant with PPC_BOOK3S_32.

In order to make the code clearer, lets use preferably PPC_BOOK3S_32.
This will allow to remove CONFIG_6xx in a later patch.

powerpc: Fix build warning on 32-bit PPC

2016-12-26T00:12:20+00:00

I am getting the following warning when I build kernel 4.9-git on my
PowerBook G4 with a 32-bit PPC processor:

    AS      arch/powerpc/kernel/misc_32.o
  arch/powerpc/kernel/misc_32.S:299:7: warning: "CONFIG_FSL_BOOKE" is not defined [-Wundef]

This problem is evident after commit 989cea5c14be ("kbuild: prevent
lib-ksyms.o rebuilds"); however, this change in kbuild only exposes an
error that has been in the code since 2005 when this source file was
created.  That was with commit 9994a33865f4 ("powerpc: Introduce
entry_{32,64}.S, misc_{32,64}.S, systbl.S").

The offending line does not make a lot of sense.  This error does not
seem to cause any errors in the executable, thus I am not recommending
that it be applied to any stable versions.

Thanks to Nicholas Piggin for suggesting this solution.

powerpc: Change places using CONFIG_KEXEC to use CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE instead.

2016-11-30T12:15:11+00:00

Commit 2965faa5e03d ("kexec: split kexec_load syscall from kexec core
code") introduced CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE so that CONFIG_KEXEC means whether
the kexec_load system call should be compiled-in and CONFIG_KEXEC_FILE
means whether the kexec_file_load system call should be compiled-in.
These options can be set independently from each other.

Since until now powerpc only supported kexec_load, CONFIG_KEXEC and
CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE were synonyms. That is not the case anymore, so we
need to make a distinction. Almost all places where CONFIG_KEXEC was
being used should be using CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE instead, since
kexec_file_load also needs that code compiled in.
