2012-10-31PPC: ePAPR: Convert hcall header to uapi (round 2)Alexander Graf
The new uapi framework splits kernel internal and user space exported bits of header files more cleanly. Adjust the ePAPR header accordingly. Signed-off-by: Alexander Graf <agraf@suse.de>

2012-03-29powerpc/epapr: add "memory" as a clobber to all hypercallsTimur Tabi
The "memory" clobber tells the compiler to ensure that all writes to memory are committed before the hypercall is made. "memory" is only necessary for hcalls where the Hypervisor will read or write guest memory. However, we add it to all hcalls because the impact is minimal, and we want to ensure that it's present for the hcalls that need it.

2011-06-27powerpc: introduce ePAPR embedded hypervisor hcall interfaceTimur Tabi
ePAPR hypervisors provide operating system services via a "hypercall" interface. The following steps need to be performed to make an hcall: 1. Load r11 with the hcall number 2. Load specific other registers with parameters 3. Issue instrucion "sc 1" 4. The return code is in r3 5. Other returned parameters are in other registers. To provide this service to the kernel, these steps are wrapped in inline assembly functions. Standard ePAPR hcalls are in epapr_hcalls.h, and Freescale extensions are in fsl_hcalls.h.
