powerpc/nvram: Move generic code for nvram and pstore

2015-03-23T03:05:49+00:00

With minor checks, we can move most of the code for nvram under pseries to a common place to be re-used by other powerpc platforms like powernv. This patch moves such common code to arch/powerpc/kernel/nvram_64.c file. Signed-off-by: Hari Bathini [mpe: Move select of ZLIB_DEFLATE to PPC64 to fix the build] Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman

powerpc/pseries: Initialise nvram_pstore_info's buf_lock

2014-11-19T05:09:13+00:00

nvram_pstore_info's buf_lock is not initialized before registering, which is clearly incorrect. It causes some strange behavior when trying to obtain the lock during kdump process. On a UP configuration, the console stopped for a couple of seconds, then "lockup suspected" warning printed out, but then it continued to run. So try lock fails, and lockup reported, but then arch_spin_lock() passes. Signed-off-by: Li Zhong [mpe: Edited changelog] Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman

powerpc: Convert last uses of FUNCTION to func

2014-04-09T02:53:32+00:00

Just about all of these have been converted to __func__, so convert the last uses. Signed-off-by: Joe Perches Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt

powerpc/pseries: Fix endian issues in nvram code

2013-12-13T04:48:36+00:00

The NVRAM code has a number of endian issues. I noticed a very confused error log count: RTAS: 100663330 -------- RTAS event begin -------- 100663330 == 0x06000022. 0x6 LE error logs and 0x22 BE error logs. The pstore code has similar issues - if we write an oops in one endian and attempt to read it in another we get junk. Make both of these formats big endian, and byteswap as required.

powerpc/nvram: Fix endian issue when reading the NVRAM size

powerpc/nvram: Scan partitions only once

2013-10-31T01:37:26+00:00

nvram_scan_partitions() is called twice when initializing the "lnx,oops-log" partition and the "ibm,rtas-log" partition. This fills the partition list with duplicate entries. This patch moves the partition scan in the init routine pseries_nvram_init_log_partitions() which is called only once. Signed-off-by: Cedric Le Goater Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt
