Revert "[POWERPC] Do firmware feature fixups after features are initialised"

2007-07-18T17:17:39+00:00

This reverts commit 5a26f6bbb767d7ad23311a1e81cfdd2bebefb855.

The original patch causes boot failures when built with ppc64_defconfig.  The
quickest fix is to revert it while alterates are investigated.

[POWERPC] Do firmware feature fixups after features are initialised

2007-06-25T07:03:26+00:00

On pSeries the firmware features are not setup until ppc_md.init_early,
so we can't do the firmware feature sections fixups till after this.

Currently firmware feature sections is only used on iSeries which inits
the firmware features much earlier.  This is a bug in waiting on
pSeries.

[PATCH] x86: Allow percpu variables to be page-aligned

2007-05-02T17:27:12+00:00

Let's allow page-alignment in general for per-cpu data (wanted by Xen, and
Ingo suggested KVM as well).

Because larger alignments can use more room, we increase the max per-cpu
memory to 64k rather than 32k: it's getting a little tight.

[POWERPC] Remove unused inclusion of linux/ide.h

2007-04-12T17:55:14+00:00

Remove unneeded inclusion of linux/ide.h
It does not compile with CONFIG_BLOCK=n.

Remove asm/ide.h from ksyms file, it gets included earlier via
linux/ide.h.

Compile tested with all defconfig files.

[POWERPC] Distinguish POWER6 partition modes and tell userspace

2006-12-04T09:40:16+00:00

This adds code to look at the properties firmware puts in the device
tree to determine what compatibility mode the partition is in on
POWER6 machines, and set the ELF aux vector AT_HWCAP and AT_PLATFORM
entries appropriately.

Specifically, we look at the cpu-version property in the cpu node(s).
If that contains a "logical" PVR value (of the form 0x0f00000x), we
call identify_cpu again with this PVR value.  A value of 0x0f000001
indicates the partition is in POWER5+ compatibility mode, and a value
of 0x0f000002 indicates "POWER6 architected" mode, with various
extensions disabled.  We also look for various other properties:
ibm,dfp, ibm,purr and ibm,spurr.

[POWERPC] Allow hooking of PCI MMIO & PIO accessors on 64 bits

2006-12-04T09:38:52+00:00

This patch reworks the way iSeries hooks on PCI IO operations (both MMIO
and PIO) and provides a generic way for other platforms to do so (we
have need to do that for various other platforms).

While reworking the IO ops, I ended up doing some spring cleaning in
io.h and eeh.h which I might want to split into 2 or 3 patches (among
others, eeh.h had a lot of useless stuff in it).

A side effect is that EEH for PIO should work now (it used to pass IO
ports down to the eeh address check functions which is bogus).

Also, new are MMIO "repeat" ops, which other archs like ARM already had,
and that we have too now: readsb, readsw, readsl, writesb, writesw,
writesl.

In the long run, I might also make EEH use the hooks instead
of wrapping at the toplevel, which would make things even cleaner and
relegate EEH completely in platforms/iseries, but we have to measure the
performance impact there (though it's really only on MMIO reads)

Since I also need to hook on ioremap, I shuffled the functions a bit
there. I introduced ioremap_flags() to use by drivers who want to pass
explicit flags to ioremap (and it can be hooked). The old __ioremap() is
still there as a low level and cannot be hooked, thus drivers who use it
should migrate unless they know they want the low level version.

The patch "arch provides generic iomap missing accessors" (should be
number 4 in this series) is a pre-requisite to provide full iomap
API support with this patch.

[POWERPC] Refactor 64 bits DMA operations

2006-12-04T09:38:40+00:00

This patch completely refactors DMA operations for 64 bits powerpc. 32 bits
is untouched for now.

We use the new dev_archdata structure to add the dma operations pointer
and associated data to struct device. While at it, we also add the OF node
pointer and numa node. In the future, we might want to look into merging
that with pci_dn as well.

The old vio, pci-iommu and pci-direct DMA ops are gone. They are now replaced
by a set of generic iommu and direct DMA ops (non PCI specific) that can be
used by bus types. The toplevel implementation is now inline.

[PATCH] Check for null init_early routine

2006-11-13T03:49:18+00:00

Add a check for a null ppc_md.init_early to allow platforms that
don't require an init_early routine to just set this member to null.
