powerpc/xmon: replace sizeof calculations with ARRAY_SIZE macro

2025-09-01T08:10:46+00:00

The calculations for operand/opcode/macro numbers are done in an identical manner to the already existing ARRAY_SIZE macro in linux/array_size.h This patch replaces the sizeof calculations with the macro to make the code cleaner and more immediately obvious what it is doing.

powerpc: Replace ASSEMBLY with ASSEMBLER in non-uapi headers

2025-09-01T07:53:29+00:00

While the GCC and Clang compilers already define __ASSEMBLER__ automatically when compiling assembler code, __ASSEMBLY__ is a macro that only gets defined by the Makefiles in the kernel. This is bad since macros starting with two underscores are names that are reserved by the C language. It can also be very confusing for the developers when switching between userspace and kernelspace coding, or when dealing with uapi headers that rather should use __ASSEMBLER__ instead. So let's standardize now on the __ASSEMBLER__ macro that is provided by the compilers. This is almost a completely mechanical patch (done with a simple "sed -i" statement), apart from tweaking two comments manually in arch/powerpc/include/asm/bug.h and arch/powerpc/include/asm/kasan.h (which did not have proper underscores at the end) and fixing a checkpatch error about spaces in arch/powerpc/include/asm/spu_csa.h.

powerpc: Don't use --- in kernel logs

When a kernel log containing --- at the start of a line is copied into a patch message, 'git am' drops everything located after that ---. Replace --- by ---- to avoid that.

powerpc/xmon: Remove SPU debug and disassembly

2025-02-26T15:45:08+00:00

Now that the IBM Cell Blade support is removed, the xmon SPU support is effectively unusable. That is because PS3 doesn't implement udbg_getc which is required to send input to xmon. So remove the xmon SPU support. Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman Signed-off-by: Madhavan Srinivasan Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20241218105523.416573-6-mpe@ellerman.id.au

powerpc/xmon: simplify xmon_batch_next_cpu()

2025-02-24T21:37:22+00:00

The function opencodes for_each_cpu_wrap() macro. As a loop termination condition it uses cpumask_empty(), which is O(N), and it makes the whole algorithm O(N^2). Switching to for_each_cpu_wrap() simplifies the logic, and makes the algorithm linear. Signed-off-by: Yury Norov

asm-generic: introduce text-patching.h

2024-11-07T22:25:15+00:00

Several architectures support text patching, but they name the header files that declare patching functions differently. Make all such headers consistently named text-patching.h and add an empty header in asm-generic for architectures that do not support text patching.
