After looking at our system call path, Mary Brown suggested that we
should put all mfspr SRR* instructions before any mtspr SRR*.
To test this I used a very simple null syscall (actually getppid)
testcase at http://ozlabs.org/~anton/junkcode/null_syscall.c
I tested with the following changes against the pseries_defconfig:
CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING=n
CONFIG_AUDIT=n
to remove the overhead of virtual CPU accounting and syscall
auditing.
POWER6:
baseline: mean = 757.2 cycles sd = 2.108
modified: mean = 759.1 cycles sd = 2.020
POWER7:
baseline: mean = 411.4 cycles sd = 0.138
modified: mean = 404.1 cycles sd = 0.109
So we have 1.77% improvement on POWER7 which looks significant. The
POWER6 suggest a 0.25% slowdown, but the results are within 1
standard deviation and may be in the noise.

Future releases of fimrware will enforce a requirement that DTL buffers
do not cross a 4k boundary. Commit
127493d5dc satisfies this requirement for
CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING=y kernels, but if !CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING
&& CONFIG_DTL=y, the current code will fail at dtl registration time.
Fix this by making the kmem cache from
127493d5dc visible outside of setup.c and
using the same cache in both dtl.c and setup.c. This requires a bit of
reorganization to ensure ordering of the kmem cache and buffer
allocations.
Note: Since firmware now limits the size of the buffer, I made
dtl_buf_entries read-only in debugfs.
Tested with upcoming firmware with the 4 combinations of
CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING and CONFIG_DTL.

When we kexec we look for a particular property added by the first
kernel, "linux,direct64-ddr-window-info", per-device where we already
have set up dynamic dma windows. The current code, though, wasn't
initializing the size of this property and thus when we kexec'd, we
would find the property but read uninitialized memory resulting in
garbage ddw values for the kexec'd kernel and panics. Fix this by
setting the size at enable_ddw() time and ensuring that the size of the

This patch adds support for handling IO Event interrupts which come
through at the /event-sources/ibm,io-events device tree node.
The interrupts come through ibm,io-events device tree node are generated
by the firmware to report IO events. The firmware uses the same interrupt
to report multiple types of events for multiple devices. Each device may
have its own event handler. This patch implements a plateform interrupt
handler that is triggered by the IO event interrupts come through
ibm,io-events device tree node, pull in the IO events from RTAS and call
device event handlers registered in the notifier list.
Device event handlers are expected to use atomic_notifier_chain_register()
and atomic_notifier_chain_unregister() to register/unregister their
event handler in pseries_ioei_notifier_list list with IO event interrupt.
Device event handlers are responsible to identify if the event belongs
to the device event handler. The device event handle should return NOTIFY_OK
after the event is handled if the event belongs to the device event handler,
or NOTIFY_DONE otherwise.

Recent 64-bit server processors (POWER6 and POWER7) have a "Come-From
Address Register" (CFAR), that records the address of the most recent
branch or rfid (return from interrupt) instruction for debugging purposes.
This saves the value of the CFAR in the exception entry code and stores
it in the exception frame. We also make xmon print the CFAR value in
its register dump code.
Rather than extend the pt_regs struct at this time, we steal the orig_gpr3
field, which is only used for system calls, and use it for the CFAR value
for all exceptions/interrupts other than system calls. This means we
don't save the CFAR on system calls, which is not a great problem since
system calls tend not to happen unexpectedly, and also avoids adding the
overhead of reading the CFAR to the system call entry path.

When we take an interrupt or exception from kernel mode and the stack
pointer is obviously not a kernel address (i.e. the top bit is 0), we
switch to an emergency stack, save register values and panic. However,
on 64-bit server machines, we don't actually save the values of r9 - r13
at the time of the interrupt, but rather values corrupted by the
exception entry code for r12-r13, and nothing at all for r9-r11.
This fixes it by passing a pointer to the register save area in the paca
through to the bad_stack code in r3. The register values are saved in
one of the paca register save areas (depending on which exception this
is). Using the pointer in r3, the bad_stack code now retrieves the
saved values of r9 - r13 and stores them in the exception frame on the
emergency stack. This also stores the normal exception frame marker
("regshere") in the exception frame.

Icswx is a PowerPC instruction to send data to a co-processor. On Book-S
processors the LPAR_ID and process ID (PID) of the owning process are
registered in the window context of the co-processor at initialization
time. When the icswx instruction is executed the L2 generates a cop-reg
transaction on PowerBus. The transaction has no address and the
processor does not perform an MMU access to authenticate the transaction.
The co-processor compares the LPAR_ID and the PID included in the
transaction and the LPAR_ID and PID held in the window context to
determine if the process is authorized to generate the transaction.
The OS needs to assign a 16-bit PID for the process. This cop-PID needs
to be updated during context switch. The cop-PID needs to be destroyed
when the context is destroyed.

RTAS returns extended error codes as a hint of how long the
OS might want to wait before retrying a call. If we have nothing
else useful to do we may as well call back straight away.
This was found when testing the new dynamic dma window feature.
Firmware split the zeroing of the TCE table into 32k chunks but
returned 9901 (which is a suggested wait of 10ms). All up this took
about 10 minutes to complete since msleep is jiffies based and will
round 10ms up to 20ms.
With the patch below we take 3 seconds to complete the same test.
The hint firmware is returning in the RTAS call should definitely
be decreased, but even if we slept 1ms each iteration this would
take 32s.
