Benjamin Herrenschmidt 411e689d92 powerpc/nvram: Search for nvram using compatible
As well as searching for nodes with type = "nvram", search for nodes
that have compatible = "nvram". This can't be converted into a single
call to of_find_compatible_node() with a non-NULL type, because that
searches for a node that has _both_ type & compatible = "nvram".

Michael Ellerman 5ca1237601 powerpc/xics: Move irq_host matching into the ics backend
An upcoming new ics backend will need to implement different matching
semantics to the current ones, which are essentially the RTAS ics
backends. So move the current match into the RTAS backend, and allow
other ics backends to override.

Benjamin Herrenschmidt ab814b938d powerpc: Add SCOM infrastructure

This code provides a way for code to map and operate on devices via

Michael Ellerman f5be2dc0bd powerpc/nohash: Allocate stale_map[cpu] on CPU_UP_PREPARE not CPU_ONLINE
Currently we allocate the stale_map for a cpu when it comes online,
this leaves open a small window where a process can be scheduled
on the cpu before the stale_map is allocated. Instead allocate
the stale_map at CPU_UP_PREPARE time, that way it will be always
available before tasks start running.

It is possible the cpu fails to come up, in which case we should free
the stale_map, so add a CPU_UP_CANCELED case to do that.

David Gibson 6c5b59b913 powerpc/boot: Add an ePAPR compliant boot wrapper
This is a first cut at making bootwrapper code which will
produce a zImage compliant with the requirements set down
by ePAPR.

This is a very simple bootwrapper, taking the device tree
blob supplied by the ePAPR boot program and passing it on
to the kernel. It builds on the earlier patch to build a
relocatable ET_DYN zImage to meet the other ePAPR image
requirements.

For good measure we have some paranoid checks which will
generate warnings if some of the ePAPR entry condition
guarantees are not met.

Michael Ellerman 6975a783d7 powerpc/boot: Allow building the zImage wrapper as a relocatable ET_DYN
This patch adds code, linker script and makefile support to allow
building the zImage wrapper around the kernel as a position independent
executable.  This results in an ET_DYN instead of an ET_EXEC ELF output
file, which can be loaded at any location by the firmware and will
process its own relocations to work correctly at the loaded address.

This is of interest particularly since the standard ePAPR image format
must be an ET_DYN (although this patch alone is not sufficient to
produce a fully ePAPR compliant boot image).

Note for now we don't enable building with -pie for anything.

Michael Ellerman ee7a2aa3d3 powerpc/mm: Fix slice state initialization for Book3E
On Book3E, MMU_NO_CONTEXT != 0, but the slice_mm_new_context()
macro assumes that it is.  This means that the map of the
page sizes for each slice is always initialized to zeroes
(which happens to be 4k pages), rather than to the correct
default base page size value - which might be 64k.

Benjamin Herrenschmidt ad0693ee72 powerpc: Call CPU ->restore callback earlier on secondary CPUs
We do it before we loop on the PACA start flag. This way, we get a
chance to set critical SPRs on all CPUs before Linux tries to start
them up, which avoids problems when changing some bits such as LPCR
bits that need to be identical on all threads of a core or similar
things like that. Ideally, some of that should also be done before
the MMU is enabled, but that's a separate issue which would require
moving some of the SMP startup code earlier, let's not get there
for now, it works with that change alone.

SPRG2 when we're running in hypervisor mode on POWER7.  This will

KVM guests.  To simplify the code, we define GET_SCRATCH0() and
SET_SCRATCH0() macros like the GET_PACA/SET_PACA macros.

Benjamin Herrenschmidt 2dd60d79e0 powerpc: In HV mode, use HSPRG0 for PACA
When running in Hypervisor mode (arch 2.06 or later), we store the PACA
in HSPRG0 instead of SPRG1. The architecture specifies that SPRGs may be
lost during a "nap" power management operation (though they aren't

Benjamin Herrenschmidt 0b05ac6e24 powerpc/xics: Rewrite XICS driver
This is a significant rework of the XICS driver, too significant to
conveniently break it up into a series of smaller patches to be honest.

The driver is moved to a more generic location to allow new platforms
to use it, and is broken up into separate ICP and ICS "backends". For
now we have the native and "hypervisor" ICP backends and one common
RTAS ICS backend.

The driver supports one ICP backend instanciation, and many ICS ones,
in order to accomodate future platforms with multiple possibly different
interrupt "sources" mechanisms.

Linus Torvalds c78193e9c7 next_pidmap: fix overflow condition
next_pidmap() just quietly accepted whatever 'last' pid that was passed
in, which is not all that safe when one of the users is /proc.

Admittedly the proc code should do some sanity checking on the range
(and that will be the next commit), but that doesn't mean that the
helper functions should just do that pidmap pointer arithmetic without
checking the range of its arguments.

So clamp 'last' to PID_MAX_LIMIT.  The fact that we then do "last+1"
doesn't really matter, the for-loop does check against the end of the
pidmap array properly (it's only the actual pointer arithmetic overflow
case we need to worry about, and going one bit beyond isn't going to
overflow).

[ Use PID_MAX_LIMIT rather than pid_max as per Eric Biederman ]

Mouse gets "stuck" after restore of PV guest but buttons are in working

If driver has been configured for ABS coordinates at start it will get

XENKBD_TYPE_MOTION events, that will be dropped later and they won't get
into user-space.

Regression was introduced by hunk 5 and 6 of

("Input: xen-kbdfront - advertise either absolute or relative
coordinates").

available. So restore parts that did it before 5ea5254.

md has some plugging infrastructure for RAID5 to use because the
normal plugging infrastructure required a 'request_queue', and when
called from dm, RAID5 doesn't have one of those available.

This relied on the ->unplug_fn callback which doesn't exist any more.

So remove all of that code, both in md and raid5.  Subsequent patches
with restore the plugging functionality.

NeilBrown af1db72d8b md/dm - remove remains of plug_fn callback.
Now that unplugging is done differently, the unplug_fn callback is
never called, so it can be completely discarded.

NeilBrown e1dfa0a297 md: use new plugging interface for RAID IO.
md/raid submits a lot of IO from the various raid threads.
So adding start/finish plug calls to those so that some
plugging happens.

Jens Axboe 99e22598e9 block: drop queue lock before calling __blk_run_queue() for kblockd punt
If we know we are going to punt to kblockd, we can drop the queue
lock before calling into __blk_run_queue() since it only does a
safe bit test and a workqueue call. Since kblockd needs to grab
this very lock as one of the first things it does, it's a good
optimization to drop the lock before waking kblockd.
