c38a04b1ba powerpc/32: Fix compile error caused by pud_t/pgt_t confusion
PPC32 is still using asm-generic/4level-fixup.h, but asm-powerpc/page.h
was defining pud_t and pgd_t.  Depending on the order in which files
got included, this could result in a compilation error.  Tweak the ifdef
so that page.h doesn't try to define pud_t on ppc32 (which uses 2-level
page tables).

7a0268fa1a [PATCH] powerpc/64: per cpu data optimisations
The current ppc64 per cpu data implementation is quite slow. eg:

        lhz 11,18(13)           /* smp_processor_id() */
        ld 9,.LC63-.LCTOC1(30)  /* per_cpu__variable_name */
        ld 8,.LC61-.LCTOC1(30)  /* __per_cpu_offset */
        sldi 11,11,3            /* form index into __per_cpu_offset */
        mr 10,9
        ldx 9,11,8              /* __per_cpu_offset[smp_processor_id()] */
        ldx 0,10,9              /* load per cpu data */

5 loads for something that is supposed to be fast, pretty awful. One
reason for the large number of loads is that we have to synthesize 2
64bit constants (per_cpu__variable_name and __per_cpu_offset).

By putting __per_cpu_offset into the paca we can avoid the 2 loads
associated with it:

        ld 11,56(13)            /* paca->data_offset */
        ld 9,.LC59-.LCTOC1(30)  /* per_cpu__variable_name */
        ldx 0,9,11              /* load per cpu data

Longer term we can should be able to do even better than 3 loads.
If per_cpu__variable_name wasnt a 64bit constant and paca->data_offset
was in a register we could cut it down to one load. A suggestion from
Rusty is to use gcc's __thread extension here. In order to do this we
would need to free up r13 (the __thread register and where the paca
currently is). So far Ive had a few unsuccessful attempts at doing that :)

The patch also allocates per cpu memory node local on NUMA machines.
This patch from Rusty has been sitting in my queue _forever_ but stalled
when I hit the compiler bug. Sorry about that.

Finally I also only allocate per cpu data for possible cpus, which comes
straight out of the x86-64 port. On a pseries kernel (with NR_CPUS == 128)
and 4 possible cpus we see some nice gains:

             total       used       free     shared    buffers cached
Mem:       4012228     212860    3799368          0          0 162424

             total       used       free     shared    buffers cached
Mem:       4016200     212984    3803216          0          0 162424

A saving of 3.75MB. Quite nice for smaller machines. Note: we now have
to be careful of per cpu users that touch data for !possible cpus.

At this stage it might be worth making the NUMA and possible cpu
optimisations generic, but per cpu init is done so early we have to be
careful that all architectures have their possible map setup correctly.

296167ae17 [PATCH] powerpc: Make early debugging configurable via Kconfig
This patch adds Kconfig entries to control the early debugging options,
currently in setup_64.c.

Doing this via Kconfig rather than #defines means you can have one source tree,
which is buildable for multiple platforms - and you can enable the correct
early debug option for each platform via .config.

I made udbg_early_init() a static inline because otherwise GCC is to daft to
optimise it away when debugging is off.

Now that we have udbg_init_rtas() we can make call_rtas_display_status* static.

cc57165874 [PATCH] kdump: dynamic per cpu allocation of memory for saving cpu registers
- In case of system crash, current state of cpu registers is saved in memory
  in elf note format.  So far memory for storing elf notes was being allocated
  statically for NR_CPUS.

- This patch introduces dynamic allocation of memory for storing elf notes.
  It uses alloc_percpu() interface.  This should lead to better memory usage.

- Introduced based on Andi Kleen's and Eric W. Biederman's suggestions.

- This patch also moves memory allocation for elf notes from architecture
  dependent portion to architecture independent portion.  Now crash_notes is
  architecture independent.  The whole idea is that size of memory to be
  allocated per cpu (MAX_NOTE_BYTES) can be architecture dependent and
  allocation of this memory can be architecture independent.

5b9ca52691 [PATCH] 3/5 powerpc: Add platform functions interpreter
This is the platform function interpreter itself along with the backends
for UniN/U3/U4, mac-io, GPIOs and i2c. It adds the ability to execute
those do-platform-* scripts in the device-tree (at least for most
devices for which a backend is provided). This should replace the clock
spreading hacks properly. It might also have an impact on all sort of
machines since some of the scripts marked "at init" will now be executed
on boot (or some other on sleep/wakeup), those will possibly do things
that the kernel didn't do at all, like setting some values into some i2c
devices (changing thermal sensor calibration or conversion rate) etc...
Thus regression testing is MUCH welcome. Also loook for errors in dmesg.
That's also why I've left rather verbose debugging enabled in this
version of the patch.

(I do expect some Windtunnel G4s to show some errors as they have an i2c
clock chip on the PMU bus that uses some primitives that the i2c backend
doesn't implement yet. I really need users that have one of those
machine to come back to me so we can get that done right, though the
errors themselves should be harmless, I suspect the machine might not
run at full speed).

a28d3af2a2 [PATCH] 2/5 powerpc: Rework PowerMac i2c part 2
This is the continuation of the previous patch. This one removes the old
PowerMac i2c drivers (i2c-keywest and i2c-pmac-smu) and replaces them
both with a single stub driver that uses the new PowerMac low i2c layer.

Now that i2c-keywest is gone, the low-i2c code is extended to support
interrupt driver transfers. All i2c busses now appear as platform
devices. Compatibility with existing drivers should be maintained as the
i2c bus names have been kept identical, except for the SMU bus but in
that later case, all users has been fixed.

With that patch added, matching a device node to an i2c_adapter becomes
trivial.

f2c4583a38 [PATCH] powerpc: pci_address_to_pio fix
This fixes pci_address_to_pio() to return an unsigned long (to be safe)
and fixes a bug in the implementation that caused it to return a bogus
IO port number

14c89e7fc8 [PATCH] powerpc: Replace VMALLOCBASE with VMALLOC_START
On ppc64, we independently define VMALLOCBASE and VMALLOC_START to be
the same thing: the start of the vmalloc() area at 0xd000000000000000.
VMALLOC_START is used much more widely, including in generic code, so
this patch gets rid of the extraneous VMALLOCBASE.

This does require moving the definitions of region IDs from page_64.h
to pgtable.h, but they don't clearly belong in the former rather than
the latter, anyway.  While we're moving them, clean up the definitions
of the REGION_IDs:
	- Abolish REGION_SIZE, it was only used once, to define
REGION_MASK anyway
	- Define the specific region ids in terms of the REGION_ID()
macro.
	- Define KERNEL_REGION_ID in terms of PAGE_OFFSET rather than
KERNELBASE.  It amounts to the same thing, but conceptually this is
about the region of the linear mapping (which starts at PAGE_OFFSET)
rather than of the kernel text itself (which is at KERNELBASE).

1beb6a7d6c [PATCH] powerpc: Experimental support for new G5 Macs (#2)
This adds some very basic support for the new machines, including the
Quad G5 (tested), and other new dual core based machines and iMac G5
iSight (untested). This is still experimental !  There is no thermal
control yet, there is no proper handing of MSIs, etc.. but it
boots, I have all 4 cores up on my machine. Compared to the previous
version of this patch, this one adds DART IOMMU support for the U4
chipset and thus should work fine on setups with more than 2Gb of RAM.

I'll be removing that code in an upcoming patch, but this patch is needed

cc5d0189b9 [PATCH] powerpc: Remove device_node addrs/n_addr
The pre-parsed addrs/n_addrs fields in struct device_node are finally
gone. Remove the dodgy heuristics that did that parsing at boot and
remove the fields themselves since we now have a good replacement with
the new OF parsing code. This patch also fixes a bunch of drivers to use
the new code instead, so that at least pmac32, pseries, iseries and g5
defconfigs build.

4b703a2317 [PATCH] ppc64: Add NUMA cpu summary at boot
We used to print a NUMA cpu summary at boot before the hotplug cpu code
was added. This has been useful for catching machine configuration as
well as firmware bugs in the past.

This patch restores that functionality. An example of the output is:

Node 0 CPUs: 0-7
Node 1 CPUs: 8-15

2a911f0bb7 [PATCH] spufs: Improved SPU preemptability [part 2].
This patch reduces lock complexity of SPU scheduler, particularly
for involuntary preemptive switches.  As a result the new code
does a better job of mapping the highest priority tasks to SPUs.

Lock complexity is reduced by using the system default workqueue
to perform involuntary saves.  In this way we avoid nasty lock
ordering problems that the previous code had.  A "minimum timeslice"
for SPU contexts is also introduced.  The intent here is to avoid
thrashing.

While the new scheduler does a better job at prioritization it
still does nothing for fairness.

5110459f18 [PATCH] spufs: Improved SPU preemptability.
This patch makes it easier to preempt an SPU context by
having the scheduler hold ctx->state_sema for much shorter
periods of time.

As part of this restructuring, the control logic for the "run"
operation is moved from arch/ppc64/kernel/spu_base.c to
fs/spufs/file.c.  Of course the base retains "bottom half"
handlers for class{0,1} irqs.  The new run loop will re-acquire
an SPU if preempted.
