Christian Dietrich 56e640de12 powerpc: Removing undead ifdef __KERNEL__
The __KERNEL__ ifdef isn't necessary at this point, because it is
checked in an outer ifdef level already and has no effect here.

K.Prasad 5aae8a5370 powerpc, hw_breakpoints: Implement hw_breakpoints for 64-bit server processors
Implement perf-events based hw-breakpoint interfaces for PowerPC
64-bit server (Book III S) processors.  This allows access to a
given location to be used as an event that can be counted or
profiled by the perf_events subsystem.

This is done using the DABR (data breakpoint register), which can
also be used for process debugging via ptrace.  When perf_event
hw_breakpoint support is configured in, the perf_event subsystem
manages the DABR and arbitrates access to it, and ptrace then
creates a perf_event when it is requested to set a data breakpoint.

[Adopted suggestions from Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> to
- emulate_step() all system-wide breakpoints and single-step only the
  per-task breakpoints
- perform arch-specific cleanup before unregistration through
  arch_unregister_hw_breakpoint()

Alexander Graf 97e492558f KVM: PPC: Add SVCPU to Book3S_32
We need to keep the pointer to the shadow vcpu somewhere accessible from
within really early interrupt code. The best fit I found was the thread
struct, as that resides in an SPRG.

So let's put a pointer to the shadow vcpu in the thread struct and add
an asm-offset so we can find it.

Josh Boyer efbda86098 powerpc: Sanitize stack pointer in signal handling code
On powerpc64 machines running 32-bit userspace, we can get garbage bits in the
stack pointer passed into the kernel.  Most places handle this correctly, but
the signal handling code uses the passed value directly for allocating signal
stack frames.

This fixes the issue by introducing a get_clean_sp function that returns a
sanitized stack pointer.  For 32-bit tasks on a 64-bit kernel, the stack
pointer is masked correctly.  In all other cases, the stack pointer is simply
returned.

Additionally, we pass an 'is_32' parameter to get_sigframe now in order to
get the properly sanitized stack.  The callers are know to be 32 or 64-bit
statically.

Liu Yu 6a800f36ac powerpc: Add SPE/EFP math emulation for E500v1/v2 processors.
This patch add the handlers of SPE/EFP exceptions.
The code is used to emulate float point arithmetic,
when MSR(SPE) is enabled and receive EFP data interrupt or EFP round interrupt.

This patch has no conflict with or dependence on FP math-emu.

The code has been tested by TestFloat.

Now the code doesn't support SPE/EFP instructions emulation
(it won't be called when receive program interrupt),
but it could be easily added.

Stephen Rothwell b8b572e101 powerpc: Move include files to arch/powerpc/include/asm
from include/asm-powerpc.  This is the result of a

mkdir arch/powerpc/include/asm
git mv include/asm-powerpc/* arch/powerpc/include/asm

Followed by a few documentation/comment fixups and a couple of places
where <asm-powepc/...> was being used explicitly.  Of the latter only
one was outside the arch code and it is a driver only built for powerpc.
