2012-10-01sanitize tsk_is_polling()Al Viro1-0/+2
Make default just return 0. The current default (checking TIF_POLLING_NRFLAG) is taken to architectures that need it; ones that don't do polling in their idle threads don't need to defined TIF_POLLING_NRFLAG at all. ia64 defined both TS_POLLING (used by its tsk_is_polling()) and TIF_POLLING_NRFLAG (not used at all). Killed the latter... Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/benh/powerpc Pull powerpc updates from Benjamin Herrenschmidt: "Here are the powerpc goodies for 3.5. Main highlights are: - Support for the NX crypto engine in Power7+ - A bunch of Anton goodness, including some micro optimization of our syscall entry on Power7 - I converted a pile of our thermal control drivers to the new i2c APIs (essentially turning the old therm_pm72 into a proper set of windfarm drivers). That's one more step toward removing the deprecated i2c APIs, there's still a few drivers to fix, but we are getting close - kexec/kdump support for 47x embedded cores The big missing thing here is no updates from Freescale. Not sure what's up here, but with Kumar not working for them anymore things are a bit in a state of flux in that area." * 'next' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/benh/powerpc: (71 commits) powerpc: Fix irq distribution Revert "powerpc/hw-breakpoint: Use generic hw-breakpoint interfaces for new PPC ptrace flags" powerpc: Fixing a cputhread code documentation powerpc/crypto: Enable the PFO-based encryption device powerpc/crypto: Build files for the nx device driver powerpc/crypto: debugfs routines and docs for the nx device driver powerpc/crypto: SHA512 hash routines for nx encryption powerpc/crypto: SHA256 hash routines for nx encryption powerpc/crypto: AES-XCBC mode routines for nx encryption powerpc/crypto: AES-GCM mode routines for nx encryption powerpc/crypto: AES-ECB mode routines for nx encryption powerpc/crypto: AES-CTR mode routines for nx encryption powerpc/crypto: AES-CCM mode routines for nx encryption powerpc/crypto: AES-CBC mode routines for nx encryption powerpc/crypto: nx driver code supporting nx encryption powerpc/pseries: Enable the PFO-based RNG accelerator powerpc/pseries/hwrng: PFO-based hwrng driver powerpc/pseries: Add PFO support to the VIO bus powerpc/pseries: Add pseries update notifier for OFDT prop changes powerpc/pseries: Add new hvcall constants to support PFO ...

2012-03-09powerpc: Rework runlatch codeBenjamin Herrenschmidt1-1/+8
This moves the inlines into system.h and changes the runlatch code to use the thread local flags (non-atomic) rather than the TIF flags (atomic) to keep track of the latch state. The code to turn it back on in an asynchronous interrupt is now simplified and partially inlined. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

2011-05-26powerpc/ftrace: Implement raw syscall tracepoints on PowerPCIan Munsie1-2/+5
This patch implements the raw syscall tracepoints on PowerPC and exports them for ftrace syscalls to use. To minimise reworking existing code, I slightly re-ordered the thread info flags such that the new TIF_SYSCALL_TRACEPOINT bit would still fit within the 16 bits of the andi. instruction's UI field. The instructions in question are in /arch/powerpc/kernel/entry_{32,64}.S to and the _TIF_SYSCALL_T_OR_A with the thread flags to see if system call tracing is enabled. In the case of 64bit PowerPC, arch_syscall_addr and arch_syscall_match_sym_name are overridden to allow ftrace syscalls to work given the unusual system call table structure and symbol names that start with a period.

2011-05-25powerpc: mmu_gather reworkPeter Zijlstra1-0/+2
Fix up powerpc to the new mmu_gather stuff. PPC has an extra batching queue to RCU free the actual pagetable allocations, use the ARCH extentions for that for now. For the ppc64_tlb_batch, which tracks the vaddrs to unhash from the hardware hash-table, keep using per-cpu arrays but flush on context switch and use a TLF bit to track the lazy_mmu state.

Pull the initial preempt_count value into a single definition site. Maintainers for: alpha, ia64 and m68k, please have a look, your arch code is funny. The header magic is a bit odd, but similar to the KERNEL_DS one, CPP waits with expanding these macros until the INIT_THREAD_INFO macro itself is expanded, which is in arch/*/kernel/init_task.c where we've already included sched.h so we're good.

2009-02-14powerpc/44x: Support for 256KB PAGE_SIZEYuri Tikhonov1-1/+3
This patch adds support for 256KB pages on ppc44x-based boards. For simplification of implementation with 256KB pages we still assume 2-level paging. As a side effect this leads to wasting extra memory space reserved for PTE tables: only 1/4 of pages allocated for PTEs are actually used. But this may be an acceptable trade-off to achieve the high performance we have with big PAGE_SIZEs in some applications (e.g. RAID). Also with 256KB PAGE_SIZE we increase THREAD_SIZE up to 32KB to minimize the risk of stack overflows in the cases of on-stack arrays, which size depends on the page size (e.g. multipage BIOs, NTFS, etc.). With 256KB PAGE_SIZE we need to decrease the PKMAP_ORDER at least down to 9, otherwise all high memory (2 ^ 10 * PAGE_SIZE == 256MB) we'll be occupied by PKMAP addresses leaving no place for vmalloc. We do not separate PKMAP_ORDER for 256K from 16K/64K PAGE_SIZE here; actually that value of 10 in support for 16K/64K had been selected rather intuitively. Thus now for all cases of PAGE_SIZE on ppc44x (including the default, 4KB, one) we have 512 pages for PKMAP. Because ELF standard supports only page sizes up to 64K, then you should use binutils later than 2.17.50.0.3 with '-zmax-page-size' set to 256K for building applications, which are to be run with the 256KB-page sized kernel. If using the older binutils, then you should patch them like follows: --- binutils/bfd/elf32-ppc.c.orig +++ binutils/bfd/elf32-ppc.c -#define ELF_MAXPAGESIZE 0x10000 +#define ELF_MAXPAGESIZE 0x40000 One more restriction we currently have with 256KB page sizes is inability to use shmem safely, so, for now, the 256KB is available only if you turn the CONFIG_SHMEM option off (another variant is to use BROKEN). Though, if you need shmem with 256KB pages, you can always remove the !SHMEM dependency in 'config PPC_256K_PAGES', and use the workaround available here: http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/12/19/20 Signed-off-by: Yuri Tikhonov <yur@emcraft.com> Signed-off-by: Ilya Yanok <yanok@emcraft.com> Signed-off-by: Josh Boyer <jwboyer@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
