Initialize the PID register with kernel pid (0) before we start
setting the TLB mapping for KEXEC. Also set the MMUCR[TID] to kernel
PID.
This was spotted while testing the kexec on ISS for 47x. ISS doesn't
return a successful tlbsx for a kernel address with PID set to a user PID.
Though the hardware/qemu/simics work fine.
This patch is harmless and initializes the PID to 0 (kernel PID) which
is usually the case during a normal kernel boot. This would fix the kexec
on ISS for 440. I have tested this patch on sequoia board.

PowerPC has non standard getregs calls that only dump the GPRs or
FPRs and have their arguments reversed. commit e17666ba48f7 (ptrace
updates & new, better requests) in 2.6.3 deprecated them and introduced
more standard versions.
It's been about 5 years and I know of no users of the old calls so
lets remove them.

Remove CONFIG_POWER4_ONLY, the option is badly named and only does two
things:
- It wraps the MMU segment table code. With feature fixups there is
little downside to compiling this in.
- It uses the newer mtocrf instruction in various assembly functions.
Instead of making this a compile option just do it at runtime via
a feature fixup.

Add two optimisations to enable_kernel_altivec:
- enable_kernel_altivec has already determined if we need to
save the previous task's state but we call giveup_altivec
in both cases, requiring an extra branch in giveup_altivec. Create
giveup_altivec_notask which only turns on the VMX bit in the
MSR.
- We write the VMX MSR bit each time we call enable_kernel_altivec
even it was already set. Check the bit and branch out if we have
already set it. The classic case for this is vectored IO
where we have to copy multiple buffers to or from userspace.
The following testcase was used to confirm this patch improves
performance:
http://ozlabs.org/~anton/junkcode/copy_to_user.c
Since the current breakpoint for using VMX in copy_tofrom_user is
4096 bytes, I'm using buffers of 4096 + 1 cacheline (4224) bytes.
A benchmark of 16 entry readvs (-s 16):
time copy_to_user -l 4224 -s 16 -i 1000000
completes 5.2% faster on a POWER7 PS700.

At the moment system call entry looks like:
crclr so
...
mfcr r9
...
std r9,_CCR(r1)
commit bd19c8994a82 ([POWERPC] system call micro optimisation) put
some space between the crclr and mfcr in order to avoid a stall.
There is still a stall seen between the mfcr and std. We can avoid
the crclr by doing it in a GPR with rlwinm which gives us more room
to better schedule the sequence.

The switch from using irq_map to irq_alloc_desc*() for managing irq
number allocations introduced new bugs in some of the powerpc
interrupt code. Several functions rely on the value of NR_IRQS to
determine the maximum irq number that could get allocated. However,
with sparse_irq and using irq_alloc_desc*() the maximum possible irq
number is now specified with 'nr_irqs' which may be a number larger
than NR_IRQS. This has caused breakage on powermac when
CONFIG_NR_IRQS is set to 32.
This patch removes most of the direct references to NR_IRQS in the
powerpc code and replaces them with either a nr_irqs reference or by
using the common for_each_irq_desc() macro. The powerpc-specific
for_each_irq() macro is removed at the same time.
Also, the Cell axon_msi driver is refactored to remove the global
build assumption on the size of NR_IRQS and instead add a limit to the
maximum irq number when calling irq_domain_add_nomap().

This change is inspired by
https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/4/16/14
which fixes the build warnings for arches that don't support
CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_SECCOMP_FILTER.
In particular, there is no requirement for the return value of
secure_computing() to be checked unless the architecture supports
seccomp filter. Instead of silencing the warnings with (void)
a new static inline is added to encode the expected behavior
in a compiler and human friendly way.
v2: - cleans things up with a static inline
- removes sfr's signed-off-by since it is a different approach
v1: - matches sfr's original change

commit a546498f3bf9aac311c66f965186373aee2ca0b0
introduced a regression on 32-bit when irq tracing
is enabled by exposing an old bug in our irq tracing
code for exception entry.
The code would save and restore some GPRs around the
calls to the C lockdep code, however, it tries to be
too smart for its own good and restores some of the
GPRs from the exception frame (as saved there on
exception entry).
However, for page faults, we do replace those GPRs with
arguments to do_page_fault before we call transfer_to_handler
and so restoring from the exception frame is plain wrong in
this case.
This was fine as long as we didn't touch the interrupt state
when taking page fault, but when I started doing it, it would
trigger the lockdep calls and the bug.
This fixes it by cleaning up that code a bit. It did create
a small stack frame for the sake of backtraces, so let's
make it a bit bigger and use it to save and restore the
stuff we care about.

robust against stray IPIs") and 1c2066b0f7 ("KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Make

struct kvm_vcpu_arch inside #ifdef CONFIG_KVM_BOOK3S_64_HV regions,
and added lines to arch/powerpc/kernel/asm-offsets.c to generate
assembler constants for their offsets. Unfortunately this led to
compile errors on Book 3S machines for configs that had KVM enabled
but not CONFIG_KVM_BOOK3S_64_HV. This fixes the problem by moving
the offending lines inside #ifdef CONFIG_KVM_BOOK3S_64_HV regions.

The PAPR API allows three sorts of per-virtual-processor areas to be
registered (VPA, SLB shadow buffer, and dispatch trace log), and
furthermore, these can be registered and unregistered for another
virtual CPU. Currently we just update the vcpu fields pointing to
these areas at the time of registration or unregistration. If this
is done on another vcpu, there is the possibility that the target vcpu
is using those fields at the time and could end up using a bogus
pointer and corrupting memory.
This fixes the race by making the target cpu itself do the update, so
we can be sure that the update happens at a time when the fields
aren't being used. Each area now has a struct kvmppc_vpa which is
used to manage these updates. There is also a spinlock which protects
access to all of the kvmppc_vpa structs, other than to the pinned_addr
fields. (We could have just taken the spinlock when using the vpa,
slb_shadow or dtl fields, but that would mean taking the spinlock on
every guest entry and exit.)
This also changes 'struct dtl' (which was undefined) to 'struct dtl_entry',
which is what the rest of the kernel uses.
Thanks to Michael Ellerman <michael@ellerman.id.au> for pointing out
the need to initialize vcpu->arch.vpa_update_lock.

Currently on POWER7, if we are running the guest on a core and we don't
need all the hardware threads, we do nothing to ensure that the unused
threads aren't executing in the kernel (other than checking that they
are offline). We just assume they're napping and we don't do anything
to stop them trying to enter the kernel while the guest is running.
This means that a stray IPI can wake up the hardware thread and it will
then try to enter the kernel, but since the core is in guest context,
it will execute code from the guest in hypervisor mode once it turns the
MMU on, which tends to lead to crashes or hangs in the host.
This fixes the problem by adding two new one-byte flags in the
kvmppc_host_state structure in the PACA which are used to interlock
between the primary thread and the unused secondary threads when entering
the guest. With these flags, the primary thread can ensure that the
unused secondaries are not already in kernel mode (i.e. handling a stray
IPI) and then indicate that they should not try to enter the kernel
if they do get woken for any reason. Instead they will go into KVM code,
find that there is no vcpu to run, acknowledge and clear the IPI and go
back to nap mode.

Chips such as e500mc that implement category E.HV in Power ISA 2.06
provide hardware virtualization features, including a new MSR mode for
guest state. The guest OS can perform many operations without trapping
into the hypervisor, including transitions to and from guest userspace.
Since we can use SRR1[GS] to reliably tell whether an exception came from
guest state, instead of messing around with IVPR, we use DO_KVM similarly
to book3s.
Current issues include:
- Machine checks from guest state are not routed to the host handler.
- The guest can cause a host oops by executing an emulated instruction
in a page that lacks read permission. Existing e500/4xx support has
the same problem.

git://git.linaro.org/people/mszyprowski/linux-dma-mapping
Pull DMA mapping branch from Marek Szyprowski:
"Short summary for the whole series:
A few limitations have been identified in the current dma-mapping
design and its implementations for various architectures. There exist
more than one function for allocating and freeing the buffers:
currently these 3 are used dma_{alloc, free}_coherent,
dma_{alloc,free}_writecombine, dma_{alloc,free}_noncoherent.
For most of the systems these calls are almost equivalent and can be
interchanged. For others, especially the truly non-coherent ones
(like ARM), the difference can be easily noticed in overall driver
performance. Sadly not all architectures provide implementations for
all of them, so the drivers might need to be adapted and cannot be
easily shared between different architectures. The provided patches
unify all these functions and hide the differences under the already
existing dma attributes concept. The thread with more references is
available here:
http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-sh/msg09777.html
These patches are also a prerequisite for unifying DMA-mapping
implementation on ARM architecture with the common one provided by
dma_map_ops structure and extending it with IOMMU support. More
information is available in the following thread:
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.cross-arch/12819
More works on dma-mapping framework are planned, especially in the
area of buffer sharing and managing the shared mappings (together with
the recently introduced dma_buf interface: commit d15bd7ee445d
"dma-buf: Introduce dma buffer sharing mechanism").
The patches in the current set introduce a new alloc/free methods
(with support for memory attributes) in dma_map_ops structure, which
will later replace dma_alloc_coherent and dma_alloc_writecombine
functions."
People finally started piping up with support for merging this, so I'm
merging it as the last of the pending stuff from the merge window.
Looks like pohmelfs is going to wait for 3.5 and more external support
for merging.

Pull "Disintegrate and delete asm/system.h" from David Howells:
"Here are a bunch of patches to disintegrate asm/system.h into a set of
separate bits to relieve the problem of circular inclusion
dependencies.
I've built all the working defconfigs from all the arches that I can
and made sure that they don't break.
The reason for these patches is that I recently encountered a circular
dependency problem that came about when I produced some patches to
optimise get_order() by rewriting it to use ilog2().
This uses bitops - and on the SH arch asm/bitops.h drags in
asm-generic/get_order.h by a circuituous route involving asm/system.h.
The main difficulty seems to be asm/system.h. It holds a number of
low level bits with no/few dependencies that are commonly used (eg.
memory barriers) and a number of bits with more dependencies that
aren't used in many places (eg. switch_to()).
These patches break asm/system.h up into the following core pieces:
(1) asm/barrier.h
Move memory barriers here. This already done for MIPS and Alpha.
(2) asm/switch_to.h
Move switch_to() and related stuff here.
(3) asm/exec.h
Move arch_align_stack() here. Other process execution related bits
could perhaps go here from asm/processor.h.
(4) asm/cmpxchg.h
Move xchg() and cmpxchg() here as they're full word atomic ops and
frequently used by atomic_xchg() and atomic_cmpxchg().
(5) asm/bug.h
Move die() and related bits.
(6) asm/auxvec.h
Move AT_VECTOR_SIZE_ARCH here.
Other arch headers are created as needed on a per-arch basis."
Fixed up some conflicts from other header file cleanups and moving code
around that has happened in the meantime, so David's testing is somewhat
weakened by that. We'll find out anything that got broken and fix it..

The IO event interrupt code has a function that finds specific
sections in an RTAS error log. We want to use it in the EPOW
code so make it global.
Rename things to make it less cryptic:
find_xelog_section() -> get_pseries_errorlog()
struct pseries_elog_section -> struct pseries_errorlog

Pull <linux/bug.h> cleanup from Paul Gortmaker:
"The changes shown here are to unify linux's BUG support under the one
<linux/bug.h> file. Due to historical reasons, we have some BUG code
in bug.h and some in kernel.h -- i.e. the support for BUILD_BUG in
linux/kernel.h predates the addition of linux/bug.h, but old code in
kernel.h wasn't moved to bug.h at that time. As a band-aid, kernel.h
was including <asm/bug.h> to pseudo link them.
This has caused confusion[1] and general yuck/WTF[2] reactions. Here
is an example that violates the principle of least surprise:
CC lib/string.o
lib/string.c: In function 'strlcat':
lib/string.c:225:2: error: implicit declaration of function 'BUILD_BUG_ON'
make[2]: *** [lib/string.o] Error 1
$
$ grep linux/bug.h lib/string.c
#include <linux/bug.h>
$
We've included <linux/bug.h> for the BUG infrastructure and yet we
still get a compile fail! [We've not kernel.h for BUILD_BUG_ON.] Ugh -
very confusing for someone who is new to kernel development.
With the above in mind, the goals of this changeset are:
1) find and fix any include/*.h files that were relying on the
implicit presence of BUG code.
2) find and fix any C files that were consuming kernel.h and hence
relying on implicitly getting some/all BUG code.
3) Move the BUG related code living in kernel.h to <linux/bug.h>
4) remove the asm/bug.h from kernel.h to finally break the chain.
During development, the order was more like 3-4, build-test, 1-2. But
to ensure that git history for bisect doesn't get needless build
failures introduced, the commits have been reorderd to fix the problem
areas in advance.

The motivation for this patchset was that I was looking at a way for a
qemu-kvm process, to exclude the guest memory from its core dump, which
can be quite large. There are already a number of filter flags in
/proc/<pid>/coredump_filter, however, these allow one to specify 'types'
of kernel memory, not specific address ranges (which is needed in this
case).
Since there are no more vma flags available, the first patch eliminates
the need for the 'VM_ALWAYSDUMP' flag. The flag is used internally by
the kernel to mark vdso and vsyscall pages. However, it is simple
enough to check if a vma covers a vdso or vsyscall page without the need
for this flag.
The second patch then replaces the 'VM_ALWAYSDUMP' flag with a new
'VM_NODUMP' flag, which can be set by userspace using new madvise flags:
'MADV_DONTDUMP', and unset via 'MADV_DODUMP'. The core dump filters
continue to work the same as before unless 'MADV_DONTDUMP' is set on the
region.
The qemu code which implements this features is at:
http://people.redhat.com/~jbaron/qemu-dump/qemu-dump.patch
In my testing the qemu core dump shrunk from 383MB -> 13MB with this
patch.
I also believe that the 'MADV_DONTDUMP' flag might be useful for
security sensitive apps, which might want to select which areas are
dumped.
This patch:
The VM_ALWAYSDUMP flag is currently used by the coredump code to
indicate that a vma is part of a vsyscall or vdso section. However, we
can determine if a vma is in one these sections by checking it against
the gate_vma and checking for a non-NULL return value from
arch_vma_name(). Thus, freeing a valuable vma bit.

Pull PCI changes (including maintainer change) from Jesse Barnes:
"This pull has some good cleanups from Bjorn and Yinghai, as well as
some more code from Yinghai to better handle resource re-allocation
when enabled.
There's also a new initcall_debug feature from Arjan which will print
out quirk timing information to help identify slow quirks for fixing
or refinement (Yinghai sent in a few patches to do just that once the
new debug code landed).
Beyond that, I'm handing off PCI maintainership to Bjorn Helgaas.
He's been a core PCI and Linux contributor for some time now, and has
kindly volunteered to take over. I just don't feel I have the time
for PCI review and work that it deserves lately (I've taken on some
other projects), and haven't been as responsive lately as I'd like, so
I approached Bjorn asking if he'd like to manage things. He's going
to give it a try, and I'm confident he'll do at least as well as I
have in keeping the tree managed, patches flowing, and keeping things
stable."

resource fixup cleanups clashing with list handling cleanup, ppc iseries
removal clashing with pci_probe_only cleanup etc)

Pull powerpc merge from Benjamin Herrenschmidt:
"Here's the powerpc batch for this merge window. It is going to be a
bit more nasty than usual as in touching things outside of
arch/powerpc mostly due to the big iSeriesectomy :-) We finally got
rid of the bugger (legacy iSeries support) which was a PITA to
maintain and that nobody really used anymore.
Here are some of the highlights:
- Legacy iSeries is gone. Thanks Stephen ! There's still some bits
and pieces remaining if you do a grep -ir series arch/powerpc but
they are harmless and will be removed in the next few weeks
hopefully.
- The 'fadump' functionality (Firmware Assisted Dump) replaces the
previous (equivalent) "pHyp assisted dump"... it's a rewrite of a
mechanism to get the hypervisor to do crash dumps on pSeries, the
new implementation hopefully being much more reliable. Thanks
Mahesh Salgaonkar.
- The "EEH" code (pSeries PCI error handling & recovery) got a big
spring cleaning, motivated by the need to be able to implement a
new backend for it on top of some new different type of firwmare.
The work isn't complete yet, but a good chunk of the cleanups is
there. Note that this adds a field to struct device_node which is
not very nice and which Grant objects to. I will have a patch soon
that moves that to a powerpc private data structure (hopefully
before rc1) and we'll improve things further later on (hopefully
getting rid of the need for that pointer completely). Thanks Gavin
Shan.
- I dug into our exception & interrupt handling code to improve the
way we do lazy interrupt handling (and make it work properly with
"edge" triggered interrupt sources), and while at it found & fixed
a wagon of issues in those areas, including adding support for page
fault retry & fatal signals on page faults.
- Your usual random batch of small fixes & updates, including a bunch
of new embedded boards, both Freescale and APM based ones, etc..."
I fixed up some conflicts with the generalized irq-domain changes from
Grant Likely, hopefully correctly.

Pull irq_domain support for all architectures from Grant Likely:
"Generialize powerpc's irq_host as irq_domain
This branch takes the PowerPC irq_host infrastructure (reverse mapping
from Linux IRQ numbers to hardware irq numbering), generalizes it,
renames it to irq_domain, and makes it available to all architectures.
Originally the plan has been to create an all-new irq_domain
implementation which addresses some of the powerpc shortcomings such
as not handling 1:1 mappings well, but doing that proved to be far
more difficult and invasive than generalizing the working code and
refactoring it in-place. So, this branch rips out the 'new'
irq_domain and replaces it with the modified powerpc version (in a
fully bisectable way of course). It converts all users over to the
new API and makes irq_domain selectable on any architecture.
No architecture is forced to enable irq_domain, but the infrastructure
is required for doing OpenFirmware style irq translations. It will
even work on SPARC even though SPARC has it's own mechanism for
translating irqs at boot time. MIPS, microblaze, embedded x86 and c6x
are converted too.
The resulting irq_domain code is probably still too verbose and can be
optimized more, but that can be done incrementally and is a task for
follow-on patches."

Normal PCI enumeration via PCI config space uses __pci_read_base(), where
the PCI core applies any bus-to-resource offset. But powerpc doesn't use
that path when enumerating via the device tree.
In 6c5705fec63d, I converted powerpc to use the PCI core bus-to-resource
conversion, but I missed these powerpc-specific paths. Some powerpc
platforms fail to boot ("Cannot allocate resource region," "device not
available," etc.) between that commit and this one.
This adds the corresponding bus-to-resource conversion in the paths that
read BAR values from the OF device tree.
