Adds support for the "unused" page hint which can be used in shared
memory partitions to flag pages not in use, which will then be stolen
before active pages by the hypervisor when memory needs to be moved to
LPARs in need of additional memory. Failure to mark pages as 'unused'
makes the LPAR slower to give up unused memory to other partitions.
This adds the kernel parameter 'cmo_free_hint' to disable this
functionality.

The latest QE chip may have more Serial Number(SNUM)s of thread to use. We
will get the number of SNUMs from device tree by reading the new property
"fsl,qe-num-snums", and set 28 as the default number of SNUMs so that it is
compatible with the old QE chips' device trees which don't have this new
property. The macro QE_NUM_OF_SNUM is defined as the maximum number in QE
snum table which is 256.
Also we update the snum_init[] array with 18 more new SNUMs which are
confirmed to be useful on new chip.

Also, convert them to resource_size_t (which is unsigned long
on 64-bit, so it's not a change there).
We will be using these on fsl 32b to indicate the start and size
address of memory that the pci controller can actually reach - this
is needed to determine if an address requires bounce buffering. For
now, initialize them to a standard value; in the near future, the
value will be calculated based on how the inbound windows are

Commit 4fc665b88a "powerpc: Merge 32 and

an assignment to archdata.dma_data but only for 32 bit code. Commit
7eef440a54 "powerpc/pci: Cosmetic cleanups
of pci-common.c" removed the conditional compilation. Unfortunately,
the iSeries code setup the archdata.dma_data before that assignment was
done - effectively overwriting the dma_data with NULL.
Fix this up by moving the iSeries setup of dma_data into a
pci_dma_dev_setup callback.

Revert "powerpc: Add support for early tlbilx opcode"
On ppc64 we implemented elf_read_implies_exec() for 32-bit binaries
because old toolchains had bugs where they didn't mark program
segments executable that needed to be. For some reason we didn't do
this on ppc32 builds. This hadn't been an issue until commit 8d30c14c
("powerpc/mm: Rework I$/D$ coherency (v3)"), which had as a side
effect that we are now enforcing execute permissions to some extent on
32-bit 4xx and Book E processors.
This fixes it by defining elf_read_implies_exec on 32-bit to turn on
the read-implies-exec behaviour on programs that are sufficiently old
that they don't have a PT_GNU_STACK program header.

Now that ppc32 implements address randomization it also wants to inherit
personality flags like ADDR_NO_RANDOMIZE across exec, for things like

Richard Henderson pointed out that the powerpc __futex_atomic_op has a
bug: it will write the wrong value if the stwcx. fails and it has to
retry the lwarx/stwcx. loop, since 'oparg' will have been overwritten
by the result from the first time around the loop. This happens
because it uses the same register for 'oparg' (an input) as it uses
for the result.
This fixes it by using separate registers for 'oparg' and 'ret'.

This fixes a problem reported by Sean MacLennan where loading any
module would cause an oops. We weren't marking the pages containing
the module text as having hardware execute permission, due to a bug
introduced in commit 8d1cf34e ("powerpc/mm: Tweak PTE bit combination
definitions"), hence trying to execute the module text caused an
exception on processors that support hardware execute permission.
This adds _PAGE_HWEXEC to the definitions of PAGE_KERNEL_X and

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.
