Michael Neuling c75df6f96c powerpc: Fix usage of register macros getting ready for %r0 change
Anything that uses a constructed instruction (ie. from ppc-opcode.h),
need to use the new R0 macro, as %r0 is not going to work.

Also convert usages of macros where we are just determining an offset
(usually for a load/store), like:
	std	r14,STK_REG(r14)(r1)
Can't use STK_REG(r14) as %r14 doesn't work in the STK_REG macro since
it's just calculating an offset.

Milton Miller 3d2cea732d powerpc/kexec: Fix memory corruption from unallocated slaves
Commit 1fc711f7ff (powerpc/kexec: Fix race
in kexec shutdown) moved the write to signal the cpu had exited the kernel
from before the transition to real mode in kexec_smp_wait to kexec_wait.

Unfornately it missed that kexec_wait is used both by cpus leaving the
kernel and by secondary slave cpus that were not allocated a paca for
what ever reason -- they could be beyond nr_cpus or not described in
the current device tree for whatever reason (for example, kexec-load
was not refreshed after a cpu hotplug operation).  Cpus coming through
that path they will write to paca[NR_CPUS] which is beyond the space
allocated for the paca data and overwrite memory not allocated to pacas
but very likely still real mode accessable).

Move the write back to kexec_smp_wait, which is used only by cpus that
found their paca, but after the transition to real mode.

Michael Neuling 1fc711f7ff powerpc/kexec: Fix race in kexec shutdown
In kexec_prepare_cpus, the primary CPU IPIs the secondary CPUs to
kexec_smp_down().  kexec_smp_down() calls kexec_smp_wait() which sets
the hw_cpu_id() to -1.  The primary does this while leaving IRQs on
which means the primary can take a timer interrupt which can lead to
the IPIing one of the secondary CPUs (say, for a scheduler re-balance)
but since the secondary CPU now has a hw_cpu_id = -1, we IPI CPU
-1... Kaboom!

We are hitting this case regularly on POWER7 machines.

There is also a second race, where the primary will tear down the MMU
mappings before knowing the secondaries have entered real mode.

Also, the secondaries are clearing out any pending IPIs before
guaranteeing that no more will be received.

This changes kexec_prepare_cpus() so that we turn off IRQs in the
primary CPU much earlier.  It adds a paca flag to say that the
secondaries have entered the kexec_smp_down() IPI and turned off IRQs,
rather than overloading hw_cpu_id with -1.  This new paca flag is
again used to in indicate when the secondaries has entered real mode.

It also ensures that all CPUs have their IRQs off before we clear out
any pending IPI requests (in kexec_cpu_down()) to ensure there are no
trailing IPIs left unacknowledged.

Currently, load_up_altivec and give_up_altivec are duplicated
in 32-bit and 64-bit. This creates a common implementation that
is moved away from head_32.S, head_64.S and misc_64.S and into

implementation of load_up_fpu.

Michael Neuling 7e875e9dc8 powerpc: Disable VSX or current process in giveup_fpu/altivec
When we call giveup_fpu, we need to need to turn off VSX for the
current process.  If we don't, on return to userspace it may execute a
VSX instruction before the next FP instruction, and not have its
register state refreshed correctly from the thread_struct.  Ditto for
altivec.

This caused a bug where an unaligned lfs or stfs results in
fix_alignment calling giveup_fpu so it can use the FPRs (in order to
do a single <-> double conversion), and then returning to userspace
with FP off but VSX on.  Then if a VSX instruction is executed, before
another FP instruction, it will proceed without another exception and
hence have the incorrect register state for VSX registers 0-31.

   lfs unaligned   <- alignment exception turns FP off but leaves VSX on

   VSX instruction <- no exception since VSX on, hence we get the
                      wrong VSX register values for VSX registers 0-31,
                      which overlap the FPRs.

Milton Miller 1767c8f392 powerpc: Kexec exit should not use magic numbers
Commit 54622f10a6 ("powerpc: Support for
relocatable kdump kernel") added a magic flag value in a register to
tell purgatory that it should be a panic kernel.  This part is wrong
and is reverted by this commit.

The kernel gets a list of memory blocks and a entry point from user space.
Its job is to copy the blocks into place and then branch to the designated
entry point (after turning "off" the mmu).

The user space tool inserts a trampoline, called purgatory, that runs
before the user supplied code.   Its job is to establish the entry
environment for the new kernel or other application based on the contents
of memory.  The purgatory code is compiled and embedded in the tool,
where it is later patched using the elf symbol table using elf symbols.

Since the tool knows it is creating a purgatory that will run after a
kernel crash, it should just patch purgatory (or the kernel directly)
if something needs to happen.

Mohan Kumar M 54622f10a6 powerpc: Support for relocatable kdump kernel
This adds relocatable kernel support for kdump. With this one can
use the same regular kernel to capture the kdump. A signature (0xfeed1234)
is passed in r6 from panic code to the next kernel through kexec_sequence
and purgatory code. The signature is used to differentiate between
kdump kernel and non-kdump kernels.

The purgatory code compares the signature and sets the __kdump_flag in
head_64.S.  During the boot up, kernel code checks __kdump_flag and if it
is set, the kernel will behave as relocatable kdump kernel. This kernel
will boot at the address where it was loaded by kexec-tools ie. at the
address reserved through crashkernel boot parameter.

CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP depends on CONFIG_RELOCATABLE option to build kdump
kernel as relocatable. So the same kernel can be used as production and
kdump kernel.

This patch incorporates the changes suggested by Paul Mackerras to avoid
GOT use and to avoid two copies of the code.

This patch extends the floating point save and restore code to use the
VSX load/stores when VSX is available.  This will make FP context
save/restore marginally slower on FP only code, when VSX is available,

Mixing FP, VMX and VSX code will get constant architected state.

Milton Miller ee46a90b59 [POWERPC] kexec: Send slaves to new kernel earlier
With this, when kexec-ing, we copy the code and start the slaves on
their journey to the next kernel's spin loop as soon as we copy the
kexec image into place.

The kernel doesn't know exactly which slaves are spinning in
kexec_wait.  This allows us to pass more than max-cpus to the
next kernel.  But it also means that we might leave some behind.

Moving the code here means they have the time it takes us to
clear the hash table to wake up and move on.  Moving the code
any earlier would reuqire walking the image description to
search for the code, which could span multiple pages.

David Howells 7d12e780e0 IRQ: Maintain regs pointer globally rather than passing to IRQ handlers
Maintain a per-CPU global "struct pt_regs *" variable which can be used instead
of passing regs around manually through all ~1800 interrupt handlers in the
Linux kernel.

The regs pointer is used in few places, but it potentially costs both stack
space and code to pass it around.  On the FRV arch, removing the regs parameter
from all the genirq function results in a 20% speed up of the IRQ exit path
(ie: from leaving timer_interrupt() to leaving do_IRQ()).

Where appropriate, an arch may override the generic storage facility and do
something different with the variable.  On FRV, for instance, the address is
maintained in GR28 at all times inside the kernel as part of general exception
handling.

Having looked over the code, it appears that the parameter may be handed down
through up to twenty or so layers of functions.  Consider a USB character
device attached to a USB hub, attached to a USB controller that posts its
interrupts through a cascaded auxiliary interrupt controller.  A character
device driver may want to pass regs to the sysrq handler through the input
layer which adds another few layers of parameter passing.

I've build this code with allyesconfig for x86_64 and i386.  I've runtested the
main part of the code on FRV and i386, though I can't test most of the drivers.
I've also done partial conversion for powerpc and MIPS - these at least compile
with minimal configurations.

This will affect all archs.  Mostly the changes should be relatively easy.
Take do_IRQ(), store the regs pointer at the beginning, saving the old one:

	struct pt_regs *old_regs = set_irq_regs(regs);

And put the old one back at the end:

	set_irq_regs(old_regs);

Don't pass regs through to generic_handle_irq() or __do_IRQ().

In timer_interrupt(), this sort of change will be necessary:

	-	update_process_times(user_mode(regs));
	-	profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING, regs);
	+	update_process_times(user_mode(get_irq_regs()));
	+	profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING);

I'd like to move update_process_times()'s use of get_irq_regs() into itself,
except that i386, alone of the archs, uses something other than user_mode().

Some notes on the interrupt handling in the drivers:

 (*) input_dev() is now gone entirely.  The regs pointer is no longer stored in
     the input_dev struct.

 (*) finish_unlinks() in drivers/usb/host/ohci-q.c needs checking.  It does
     something different depending on whether it's been supplied with a regs
     pointer or not.

 (*) Various IRQ handler function pointers have been moved to type
     irq_handler_t.

to make it more obvious which is the appropriate one to use in a given
situation.  The new macros and their semantics are described in the
comments in ppc_asm.h.

In the process, we change several places that were unnecessarily using
immediate loads on ppc64 to use the GOT/TOC.  Likewise we cleanup a
couple of places where we were clumsily subtracting PAGE_OFFSET with

David Gibson 25c8a78b1e [PATCH] powerpc: Fix handling of fpscr on 64-bit
The recent merge of fpu.S broken the handling of fpscr for
ARCH=powerpc and CONFIG_PPC64=y.  FP registers could be corrupted,
leading to strange random application crashes.

The confusion arises, because the thread_struct has (and requires) a
64-bit area to save the fpscr, because we use load/store double
instructions to get it in to/out of the FPU.  However, only the low
32-bits are actually used, so we want to treat it as a 32-bit quantity
when manipulating its bits to avoid extra load/stores on 32-bit.  This
patch replaces the current definition with a structure of two 32-bit
quantities (pad and val), to clarify things as much as is possible.
The 'val' field is used when manipulating bits, the structure itself
is used when obtaining the address for loading/unloading the value
from the FPU.

While we're at it, consolidate the 4 (!) almost identical versions of
cvt_fd() and cvt_df() (arch/ppc/kernel/misc.S,
arch/ppc64/kernel/misc.S, arch/powerpc/kernel/misc_32.S,
arch/powerpc/kernel/misc_64.S) into a single version in fpu.S.  The
new version takes a pointer to thread_struct and applies the correct
offset itself, rather than a pointer to the fpscr field itself, again
to avoid confusion as to which is the correct field to use.

Finally, this patch makes ARCH=ppc64 also use the consolidated fpu.S
code, which it previously did not.

Built for G5 (ARCH=ppc64 and ARCH=powerpc), 32-bit powermac (ARCH=ppc
and ARCH=powerpc) and Walnut (ARCH=ppc, CONFIG_MATH_EMULATION=y).
Booted on G5 (ARCH=powerpc) and things which previously fell over no
longer do.

David Gibson 6cb7bfebb1 [PATCH] powerpc: Merge thread_info.h
Merge ppc32 and ppc64 versions of thread_info.h.  They were pretty
similar already, the chief changes are:

	- Instead of inline asm to implement current_thread_info(),
which needs to be different for ppc32 and ppc64, we use C with an
asm("r1") register variable.  gcc turns it into the same asm as we
used to have for both platforms.
	- We replace ppc32's 'local_flags' with the ppc64
'syscall_noerror' field.  The noerror flag was in fact the only thing
in the local_flags field anyway, so the ppc64 approach is simpler, and
means we only need a load-immediate/store instead of load/mask/store
when clearing the flag.
	- In readiness for 64k pages, when THREAD_SIZE will be less
than a page, ppc64 used kmalloc() rather than get_free_pages() to
allocate the kernel stack.  With this patch we do the same for ppc32,
since there's no strong reason not to.
	- For ppc64, we no longer export THREAD_SHIFT and THREAD_SIZE
via asm-offsets, thread_info.h can now be safely included in asm, as
on ppc32.

Built and booted on G4 Powerbook (ARCH=ppc and ARCH=powerpc) and
Power5 (ARCH=ppc64 and ARCH=powerpc).

Paul Mackerras 9994a33865 powerpc: Introduce entry_{32,64}.S, misc_{32,64}.S, systbl.S
The system call table has been consolidated into systbl.S.  We have
separate 32-bit and 64-bit versions of entry.S and misc.S since the
code is mostly sufficiently different to be not worth merging.
There are some common bits that will be extracted in future.
