Christoph Hellwig c1f59375b3 parisc: use generic dma_noncoherent_ops
Switch to the generic noncoherent direct mapping implementation.

Fix sync_single_for_cpu to do skip the cache flush unless the transfer
is to the device to match the more tested unmap_single path which should
have the same cache coherency implications.

Christoph Hellwig a34a9b9682 parisc: merge pcx_dma_ops and pcxl_dma_ops
The only difference is that pcxl supports dma coherent allocations, while
pcx only supports non-consistent allocations and otherwise fails.

But dma_alloc* is not in the fast path, and merging these two allows an
easy migration path to the generic dma-noncoherent implementation, so
do it.

Christoph Hellwig 325ef1857f PCI: remove PCI_DMA_BUS_IS_PHYS
This was used by the ide, scsi and networking code in the past to
determine if they should bounce payloads.  Now that the dma mapping
always have to support dma to all physical memory (thanks to swiotlb
for non-iommu systems) there is no need to this crude hack any more.

We are going to split <linux/sched/clock.h> out of <linux/sched.h>, which
will have to be picked up from other headers and .c files.

Create a trivial placeholder <linux/sched/clock.h> file that just

bisectable.

Include the new header in the files that are going to need it.

Peter Zijlstra acb04058de sched/clock: Fix hotplug crash
Mike reported that he could trigger the WARN_ON_ONCE() in
set_sched_clock_stable() using hotplug.

This exposed a fundamental problem with the interface, we should never
mark the TSC stable if we ever find it to be unstable. Therefore
set_sched_clock_stable() is a broken interface.

The reason it existed is that not having it is a pain, it means all
relevant architecture code needs to call clear_sched_clock_stable()
where appropriate.

Of the three architectures that select HAVE_UNSTABLE_SCHED_CLOCK ia64
and parisc are trivial in that they never called
set_sched_clock_stable(), so add an unconditional call to
clear_sched_clock_stable() to them.

For x86 the story is a lot more involved, and what this patch tries to
do is ensure we preserve the status quo. So even is Cyrix or Transmeta
have usable TSC they never called set_sched_clock_stable() so they now
get an explicit mark unstable.

[    2.928039] Unaligned handler failed, ret = -1

From the backtrace, cpu1 is in smp_callin:

void __init smp_callin(void)
{
       int slave_id = cpu_now_booting;

       smp_cpu_init(slave_id);
       preempt_disable();

       flush_cache_all_local(); /* start with known state */
       flush_tlb_all_local(NULL);

       local_irq_enable();  /* Interrupts have been off until now */

       cpu_startup_entry(CPUHP_AP_ONLINE_IDLE);

So, it has just flushed its caches and the TLB. It would seem either the
flushes in parisc_setup_cache_timing or smp_callin have corrupted kernel
memory.

The attached patch reworks parisc_setup_cache_timing to remove the races
in setting the cache and TLB flush thresholds. It also corrects the
number of bytes flushed in the TLB calculation.

The patch flushes the cache and TLB on cpu0 before starting the
secondary processors so that they are started from a known state.

Tested with a few reboots on c8000.

Helge Deller 690d097c00 parisc: Increase KERNEL_INITIAL_SIZE for 32-bit SMP kernels
Increase the initial kernel default page mapping size for SMP kernels to 32MB
and add a runtime check which panics early if the kernel is bigger than the
initial mapping size.

This fixes boot crashes of 32bit SMP kernels. Due to the introduction of huge
page support in kernel 4.4 and it's required initial kernel layout in memory, a
32bit SMP kernel usually got bigger (in layout, not size) than 16MB.

Helge Deller 736d216933 parisc: Add Huge Page and HUGETLBFS support
This patch adds huge page support to allow userspace to allocate huge
pages and to use hugetlbfs filesystem on 32- and 64-bit Linux kernels.
A later patch will add kernel support to map kernel text and data on
huge pages.

The only requirement is, that the kernel needs to be compiled for a
PA8X00 CPU (PA2.0 architecture). Older PA1.X CPUs do not support
variable page sizes. 64bit Kernels are compiled for PA2.0 by default.

Technically on parisc multiple physical huge pages may be needed to
emulate standard 2MB huge pages.

Helge Deller 4182d0cdf8 parisc: Initialize the fault vector earlier in the boot process.
A fault vector on parisc needs to be 2K aligned.  Furthermore the
checksum of the fault vector needs to sum up to 0 which is being
calculated and written at runtime.

Up to now we aligned both PA20 and PA11 fault vectors on the same 4K
page in order to easily write the checksum after having mapped the
kernel read-only (by mapping this page only as read-write).
But when we want to map the kernel text and data on huge pages this
makes things harder.
So, simplify it by aligning both fault vectors on 2K boundries and write
the checksum before we map the page read-only.

Helge Deller 6a45716abb parisc: fix partly 16/64k PAGE_SIZE boot
This patch fixes partly PAGE_SIZEs of 16K or 64K by adjusting the
assembler PTE lookup code and the assembler TEMPALIAS code.  Furthermore
some data alignments for PAGE_SIZE have been limited to 4K (or less) to
not waste too much memory with greater page sizes. As a side note, the
palo loader can (currently) only handle up to 10 ELF segments which is
fixed with tighter aligning as well.

My testings indicated that the ldci command in the sba iommu coding
needed adjustment by the PAGE_SHIFT value and that the I/O PDIR Page
size was only set to 4K for my machine (C3000).

All this fixes partly the boot, but there are still quite some caching
problems left.  Examples are e.g. the symbios logic driver which is
failing:

sym0: <896> rev 0x7 at pci 0000:00:0f.0 irq 69
sym0: PA-RISC Firmware, ID 7, Fast-40, SE, parity checking
CACHE TEST FAILED: DMA error (dstat=0x81).sym0: CACHE INCORRECTLY CONFIGURED.

and the tulip network driver which doesn't seem to work correctly
either:

Sending BOOTP requests .net eth0: Setting full-duplex based on MII#1
link partner capability of 05e1
..... timed out!

Beside those kernel fixes glibc will need fixes too to be able to handle
>4K page sizes.

Kyle McMartin 0ff851e190 [PARISC] Remove __read_mostly annotation from command_line
Who cares if it's in the read mostly section when it's
going to be discarded anyway?

Kyle McMartin ec1fdc24c2 [PARISC] OS_ID_LINUX == 0x0006
We were assigned an OS_ID of 0x0006. Consistently use OS_ID_LINUX
instead of using the magic number. Also update the OS_ID_ defines in
asm/pdc.h to reflect this.

Thibaut Varene 3f9edb53f7 [PARISC] pdc_stable version 0.30
pdc_stable v0.30:

This patch introduces 3 more files to the /sys/firmware/stable tree:
- diagnostic, which contains a cryptic hex string
- osdep1, a 16 bytes os-dependent storage area always available
- osdep2, another os-dependent storage area which existence/size depends
on hversion.

This patch also adds code to setup the "Linux" signature in stable
storage. That is to say that starting with this patch, the kernel will
now sign its OSID (0x0006, thx LaMont) in Stable Storage upon boot,
whether pdc_stable is enabled or not.

Linus Torvalds 1da177e4c3 Linux-2.6.12-rc2
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
