powerpc: Move include files to arch/powerpc/include/asm

2008-08-04T02:02:00+00:00

from include/asm-powerpc.  This is the result of a

mkdir arch/powerpc/include/asm
git mv include/asm-powerpc/* arch/powerpc/include/asm

Followed by a few documentation/comment fixups and a couple of places
where  was being used explicitly.  Of the latter only
one was outside the arch code and it is a driver only built for powerpc.

[POWERPC] Fix hardware IRQ time accounting problem.

2007-12-06T05:08:59+00:00

The commit fa13a5a1f25f671d084d8884be96fc48d9b68275 (sched: restore
deterministic CPU accounting on powerpc), unconditionally calls
update_process_tick() in system context.  In the deterministic
accounting case this is the correct thing to do.  However, in the
non-deterministic accounting case we need to not do this, since doing
this results in the time accounted as hardware irq time being
artificially elevated.

Also this collapses 2 consecutive '#ifdef CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING'
checks in time.h into one for neatness.

[POWERPC] Fix off-by-one error in setting decrementer on Book E/4xx (v2)

2007-11-08T03:15:31+00:00

The decrementer in Book E and 4xx processors interrupts on the
transition from 1 to 0, rather than on the 0 to -1 transition as on
64-bit server and 32-bit "classic" (6xx/7xx/7xxx) processors.  At the
moment we subtract 1 from the count of how many decrementer ticks are
required before the next interrupt before putting it into the
decrementer, which is correct for server/classic processors, but could
possibly cause the interrupt to happen too early on Book E and 4xx if
the timebase/decrementer frequency is low.

This fixes the problem by making set_dec subtract 1 from the count for
server and classic processors, instead of having the callers subtract
1.  Since set_dec already had a bunch of ifdefs to handle different
processor types, there is no net increase in ugliness. :)

Note that calling set_dec(0) may not generate an interrupt on some
processors.  To make sure that decrementer_set_next_event always calls
set_dec with an interval of at least 1 tick, we set min_delta_ns of
the decrementer_clockevent to correspond to 2 ticks (2 rather than 1
to compensate for truncations in the conversions between ticks and
ns).

This also removes a redundant call to set the decrementer to
0x7fffffff - it was already set to that earlier in timer_interrupt.

[POWERPC] Implement clockevents driver for powerpc

2007-10-03T05:44:34+00:00

This registers a clock event structure for the decrementer and turns
on CONFIG_GENERIC_CLOCKEVENTS, which means that we now don't need
most of timer_interrupt(), since the work is done in generic code.
For secondary CPUs, their decrementer clockevent is registered when
the CPU comes up (the generic code automatically removes the
clockevent when the CPU goes down).

[POWERPC] Fix timekeeping on PowerPC 601

2007-09-19T05:26:34+00:00

Recent changes to the timekeeping code broke support for the PowerPC 601
processor which doesn't have the usual timebase facility but a slightly
different thing called (yuck) the RTC.

This fixes it, boot tested on an old 601 based PowerMac 7200.

[POWERPC] 40x decrementer fixes

2007-08-20T12:29:11+00:00

Allow generic_calibrate_decr to work for 40x platforms.  Given that the hardware
behavior is identical, this also changes the set_dec function to reload the PIT
on 40x to match the behavior 44x currently has.

[POWERPC] Move iSeries_tb_recal into its own late_initcall.

2007-06-28T09:19:23+00:00

Currently iSeries will recalibrate the cputime_factors in the first
settimeofday() call.

It seems the reason for doing this is to ensure a resaonable time delta after
time_init().  On current kernels (with udev), this call is made 40-60 seconds
into the boot process, by moving it to a late initcall it is called
approximately 5 seconds after time_init() is called.  This is sufficient to
recalibrate the timebase.

[POWERPC] Fix stolen time for SMT without LPAR

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

For POWERPC, stolen time accounts for cycles lost to the hypervisor or
PURR cycles attributed to the other SMT thread.  Hence, when a PURR is
available, we should still calculate stolen time, irrespective of being
virtualised.
