powerpc/ps3: Remove unused os_area_db_id_video_mode

2015-09-30T00:33:02Z

This struct is unused, which is now a build error with gcc 6: error: 'os_area_db_id_video_mode' defined but not used There doesn't seem to be any good reason to keep it around so remove it, it's in the history if anyone needs it. Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman

genirq/irqdomain: Allow irq domain aliasing

2015-07-29T22:14:36Z

It is not uncommon (at least with the ARM stuff) to have a piece of hardware that implements different flavours of "interrupts". A typical example of this is the GICv3 ITS, which implements standard PCI/MSI support, but also some form of "generic MSI". So far, the PCI/MSI domain is registered using the ITS device_node, so that irq_find_host can return it. On the contrary, the raw MSI domain is not registered with an device_node, making it impossible to be looked up by another subsystem (obviously, using the same device_node twice would only result in confusion, as it is not defined which one irq_find_host would return). A solution to this is to "type" domains that may be aliasing, and to be able to lookup an device_node that matches a given type. For this, we introduce irq_find_matching_host() as a superset of irq_find_host: struct irq_domain *irq_find_matching_host(struct device_node *node, enum irq_domain_bus_token bus_token); where bus_token is the "type" we want to match the domain against (so far, only DOMAIN_BUS_ANY is defined). This result in some moderately invasive changes on the PPC side (which is the only user of the .match method). This has otherwise no functionnal change.

powerpc: use device_initcall for registering rtc devices

2015-06-16T18:12:29Z

Currently these two RTC devices are in core platform code where it is not possible for them to be modular. It will never be modular, so using module_init as an alias for __initcall can be somewhat misleading. Fix this up now, so that we can relocate module_init from init.h into module.h in the future. If we don't do this, we'd have to add module.h to obviously non-modular code, and that would be a worse thing. Note that direct use of __initcall is discouraged, vs. one of the priority categorized subgroups. As __initcall gets mapped onto device_initcall, our use of device_initcall directly in this change means that the runtime impact is zero -- they will remain at level 6 in initcall ordering.

powerpc: Drop return value of smp_ops->probe()

2015-04-10T10:02:49Z

smp_ops->probe() is currently supposed to return the number of cpus in the system. The last actual usage of the value was removed in May 2007 in e147ec8f1808 "[POWERPC] Simplify smp_space_timers". We still passed the value around until June 2010 when even that was finally removed in c1aa687d499a "powerpc: Clean up obsolete code relating to decrementer and timebase". So drop that requirement, probe() now returns void, and update all implementations. Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman

powerpc/ps3: Write highmem info to repository

2015-01-22T06:31:21Z

Add calls to the ps3_mm_set_repository_highmem() routine when the ps3 r1 highmem region is either created or destroyed. Signed-off-by: Geoff Levand Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman

powerpc/ps3: Add ps3_mm_set_repository_highmem

2015-01-22T06:31:21Z

Add the new routine ps3_mm_set_repository_highmem() that saves highmem info to the LV1 hypervisor registry so that the info will be available to second stage OS's loaded by petitboot/kexec. FreeBSD and some Linux derivatives use this feature. Also, move the existing ps3_mm_get_repository_highmem() routine up in the source file. This implementation of ps3_mm_set_repository_highmem() assumes the repository will have a single highmem region entry (at index 0). Signed-off-by: Geoff Levand Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman

powerpc/ps3: Add empty repository highmem routines

2015-01-22T06:31:21Z

To avoid the need for preprocessor conditionals in C source files add a set of empty inline repository highmem write routines to platform.h that are used when CONFIG_PS3_REPOSITORY_WRITE is not defined. Signed-off-by: Geoff Levand Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman

powerpc/mm: don't do tlbie for updatepp request with NO HPTE fault

2014-12-05T05:26:15Z

upatepp can get called for a nohpte fault when we find from the linux page table that the translation was hashed before. In that case we are sure that there is no existing translation, hence we could avoid doing tlbie. We could possibly race with a parallel fault filling the TLB. But that should be ok because updatepp is only ever relaxing permissions. We also look at linux pte permission bits when filling hash pte permission bits. We also hold the linux pte busy bits while inserting/updating a hashpte entry, hence a paralle update of linux pte is not possible. On the other hand mprotect involves ptep_modify_prot_start which cause a hpte invalidate and not updatepp. Performance number: We use randbox_access_bench written by Anton.

powerpc: Remove more traces of bootmem

2014-11-19T10:41:51Z

Although we are now selecting NO_BOOTMEM, we still have some traces of bootmem lying around. That is because even with NO_BOOTMEM there is still a shim that converts bootmem calls into memblock calls, but ultimately we want to remove all traces of bootmem. Most of the patch is conversions from alloc_bootmem() to memblock_virt_alloc(). In general a call such as: p = (struct foo *)alloc_bootmem(x); Becomes: p = memblock_virt_alloc(x, 0); We don't need the cast because memblock_virt_alloc() returns a void *. The alignment value of zero tells memblock to use the default alignment, which is SMP_CACHE_BYTES, the same value alloc_bootmem() uses. We remove a number of NULL checks on the result of memblock_virt_alloc(). That is because memblock_virt_alloc() will panic if it can't allocate, in exactly the same way as alloc_bootmem(), so the NULL checks are and always have been redundant. The memory returned by memblock_virt_alloc() is already zeroed, so we remove several memsets of the result of memblock_virt_alloc(). Finally we convert a few uses of __alloc_bootmem(x, y, MAX_DMA_ADDRESS) to just plain memblock_virt_alloc(). We don't use memblock_alloc_base() because MAX_DMA_ADDRESS is ~0ul on powerpc, so limiting the allocation to that is pointless, 16XB ought to be enough for anyone. Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman
