powerpc/cell: Move data segment faulting code out of cell platform

2014-10-08T09:14:55+00:00

__spu_trap_data_seg() currently contains code to determine the VSID and ESID required for a particular EA and mm struct. This code is generically useful for other co-processors. This moves the code of the cell platform so it can be used by other powerpc code. It also adds 1TB segment handling which Cell didn't support. The new function is called copro_calculate_slb(). This also moves the internal struct spu_slb to a generic struct copro_slb which is now used in the Cell and copro code. We use this new struct instead of passing around esid and vsid parameters.

Merge branch 'next' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/benh/powerpc

2014-06-11T01:54:22+00:00

Pull powerpc updates from Ben Herrenschmidt: "Here is the bulk of the powerpc changes for this merge window. It got a bit delayed in part because I wasn't paying attention, and in part because I discovered I had a core PCI change without a PCI maintainer ack in it. Bjorn eventually agreed it was ok to merge it though we'll probably improve it later and I didn't want to rebase to add his ack. There is going to be a bit more next week, essentially fixes that I still want to sort through and test. The biggest item this time is the support to build the ppc64 LE kernel with our new v2 ABI. We previously supported v2 userspace but the kernel itself was a tougher nut to crack. This is now sorted mostly thanks to Anton and Rusty. We also have a fairly big series from Cedric that add support for 64-bit LE zImage boot wrapper. This was made harder by the fact that traditionally our zImage wrapper was always 32-bit, but our new LE toolchains don't really support 32-bit anymore (it's somewhat there but not really "supported") so we didn't want to rely on it. This meant more churn that just endian fixes. This brings some more LE bits as well, such as the ability to run in LE mode without a hypervisor (ie. under OPAL firmware) by doing the right OPAL call to reinitialize the CPU to take HV interrupts in the right mode and the usual pile of endian fixes. There's another series from Gavin adding EEH improvements (one day we *will* have a release with less than 20 EEH patches, I promise!). Another highlight is the support for the "Split core" functionality on P8 by Michael. This allows a P8 core to be split into "sub cores" of 4 threads which allows the subcores to run different guests under KVM (the HW still doesn't support a partition per thread). And then the usual misc bits and fixes ..." [ Further delayed by gmail deciding that BenH is a dirty spammer.

KVM: PPC: Book3S PR: Rework SLB switching code

2014-05-30T12:26:30+00:00

On LPAR guest systems Linux enables the shadow SLB to indicate to the hypervisor a number of SLB entries that always have to be available. Today we go through this shadow SLB and disable all ESID's valid bits. However, pHyp doesn't like this approach very much and honors us with fancy machine checks. Fortunately the shadow SLB descriptor also has an entry that indicates the number of valid entries following. During the lifetime of a guest we can just swap that value to 0 and don't have to worry about the SLB restoration magic. While we're touching the code, let's also make it more readable (get rid of rldicl), allow it to deal with a dynamic number of bolted SLB entries and only do shadow SLB swizzling on LPAR systems.

powerpc: Fix branch patching code for ABIv2

2014-04-23T00:05:22+00:00

The MMU hashtable and SLB branch patching code uses function pointers for the update sites. This creates a difference between ABIv1 and ABIv2 because we don't have function descriptors on ABIv2. Get rid of the function pointer and just point at the update sites directly. This works on both ABIs. Signed-off-by: Anton Blanchard

powerpc: Fix little endian lppaca, slb_shadow and dtl_entry

2013-08-14T05:33:35+00:00

The lppaca, slb_shadow and dtl_entry hypervisor structures are big endian, so we have to byte swap them in little endian builds. LE KVM hosts will also need to be fixed but for now add an #error to remind us. Signed-off-by: Anton Blanchard Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt

powerpc: Free up some CPU feature bits by moving out MMU-related features

2011-04-27T04:18:52+00:00

Some of the 64bit PPC CPU features are MMU-related, so this patch moves them to MMU_FTR_ bits. All cpu_has_feature()-style tests are moved to mmu_has_feature(), and seven feature bits are freed as a result. Signed-off-by: Matt Evans Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt

powerpc: Replace open coded instruction patching with patch_instruction/patch_branch

2011-04-20T07:01:18+00:00

There are a few places we patch instructions without using patch_instruction and patch_branch, probably because they predated it. Fix it. Signed-off-by: Anton Blanchard Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt

powerpc/pseries: Fix to handle slb resize across migration

2009-09-02T06:19:01+00:00

The SLB can change sizes across a live migration, which was not being handled, resulting in possible machine crashes during migration if migrating to a machine which has a smaller max SLB size than the source machine. Fix this by first reducing the SLB size to the minimum possible value, which is 32, prior to migration. Then during the device tree update which occurs after migration, we make the call to ensure the SLB gets updated. Also add the slb_size to the lparcfg output so that the migration tools can check to make sure the kernel has this capability before allowing migration in scenarios where the SLB size will change.
