c6622f63db powerpc: Implement accurate task and CPU time accounting
This implements accurate task and cpu time accounting for 64-bit
powerpc kernels.  Instead of accounting a whole jiffy of time to a
task on a timer interrupt because that task happened to be running at
the time, we now account time in units of timebase ticks according to
the actual time spent by the task in user mode and kernel mode.  We
also count the time spent processing hardware and software interrupts
accurately.  This is conditional on CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING.  If
that is not set, we do tick-based approximate accounting as before.

To get this accurate information, we read either the PURR (processor
utilization of resources register) on POWER5 machines, or the timebase
on other machines on

* each entry to the kernel from usermode
* each exit to usermode
* transitions between process context, hard irq context and soft irq
  context in kernel mode
* context switches.

On POWER5 systems with shared-processor logical partitioning we also
read both the PURR and the timebase at each timer interrupt and
context switch in order to determine how much time has been taken by
the hypervisor to run other partitions ("steal" time).  Unfortunately,
since we need values of the PURR on both threads at the same time to
accurately calculate the steal time, and since we can only calculate
steal time on a per-core basis, the apportioning of the steal time
between idle time (time which we ceded to the hypervisor in the idle
loop) and actual stolen time is somewhat approximate at the moment.

This is all based quite heavily on what s390 does, and it uses the
generic interfaces that were added by the s390 developers,
i.e. account_system_time(), account_user_time(), etc.

This patch doesn't add any new interfaces between the kernel and
userspace, and doesn't change the units in which time is reported to
userspace by things such as /proc/stat, /proc/<pid>/stat, getrusage(),
times(), etc.  Internally the various task and cpu times are stored in
timebase units, but they are converted to USER_HZ units (1/100th of a
second) when reported to userspace.  Some precision is therefore lost
but there should not be any accumulating error, since the internal
accumulation is at full precision.

cb2c9b2741 [PATCH] powerpc: Fix runlatch performance issues
The runlatch SPR can take a lot of time to write. My original runlatch
code would set it on every exception entry even though most of the time
this was not required. It would also continually set it in the idle
loop, which is an issue on an SMT capable processor.

Now we cache the runlatch value in a threadinfo bit, and only check for
it in decrementer and hardware interrupt exceptions as well as the idle
loop. Boot on POWER3, POWER5 and iseries, and compile tested on pmac32.

f1434a4854 [PATCH] powerpc: fix altivec_unavailable_exception Oopses
altivec_unavailable_exception is called without setting r3... it looks like
the r3 that actually gets passed in as struct pt_regs *regs is the
undisturbed value of r3 at the time the altivec instruction was encountered.
The user actually gets to choose the pt_regs printed in the Oops!

This fixes the oops by passing the correct pt_regs pointer to
altivec_unavailable_exception.

337a7128db [PATCH] powerpc: Only calculate htab_size in one place for kexec
For kexec we need to know the size of the MMU hash table.

Currently we calculate the size once in the htab code, and then twice more in
the kexec code, once using htab_hash_mask and once using ppc64_pft_size.
On some machines the ppc64_pft_size calculation is broken because
ppc64_pft_size is not set.

So we need to fix the second calculation, but better still we should just
calculate the size once and use it everywhere else.

Tested on Power5 LPAR, Power4 non-LPAR and Power3.

f018b36f3e [PATCH] powerpc: Don't start secondary CPUs in a UP && KEXEC kernel
Because smp_release_cpus() is built for SMP || KEXEC, it's not safe to
unconditionally call it from setup_system(). On a UP && KEXEC kernel we'll
start up the secondary CPUs which will then go beserk and we die.

Simple fix is to conditionally call smp_release_cpus() in setup_system(). With
that in place we don't need the dummy definition of smp_release_cpus() because
all call sites are #ifdef'ed either SMP or KEXEC.

092b8f3488 powerpc: Keep xtime and gettimeofday in sync
This fixes a regression which was introduced by moving ppc32 to use
the same sort of lockless gettimeofday as ppc64 has been using for
some time.  This involves getting the timebase and performing some
simple arithmetic to convert it to seconds and microseconds.  However,
the factor and offset used there weren't being updated when NTP
varied the tick length using adjtimex.  64-bit didn't notice the
problem because it had a hook in the 32-bit adjtimex compat routine
that attempted to work out what the generic timekeeping code would
do and alter the factor and offset to match.  However, that code
was very complex and it wasn't clear that it still matched what the
generic code would do.

Now we use the generic current_tick_length() routine that was recently
added to check that the current tick will be as long as we expect; if
not we recompute the factor and offset.  This keeps gettimeofday and
xtime in sync.  In addition we check that gettimeofday hasn't got ahead
of xtime on each timer interrupt; if it has, we resync.

d7a5b2ffa1 [PATCH] powerpc: Always panic if lmb_alloc() fails
Currently most callers of lmb_alloc() don't check if it worked or not, if it
ever does weird bad things will probably happen. The few callers who do check
just panic or BUG_ON.

So make lmb_alloc() panic internally, to catch bugs at the source. The few
callers who did check the result no longer need to.

The only caller that did anything interesting with the return result was
careful_allocation(). For it we create __lmb_alloc_base() which _doesn't_ panic
automatically, a little messy, but passable.

The first is moving a memory barrier below where the vmerged SG count

The second is making sure we terminate the list on the failure case of

it could pass a ill-formed SG list to iommu_unmap_sg().

fa93895329 [PATCH] powerpc: Don't allocate zero bytes in finish_device_tree()
In prom.c we run finish_node() on allnodes twice. The first time we just
calculate how much memory we'll need, the second time we do the actual work.

If the calculation stage determines that we need 0 bytes, then we should skip
the lmb allocation. Although an alloc of zero will work, it has been seen to
lead to a BUG_ON() in reserve_bootmem() on at least one machine.

e2f5a3c1be powerpc/64: Fix bug in setting floating-point exception mode
When loading up the FPU, we were using a 'ld' (load doubleword)
instruction to get the FP exception mode from the thread_struct,
but it's only an int field.  This changes the ld to lwz (load
word and zero-extend).

Better save the sigmask instead of throwing it away so it can be restored.

577bca9eff [PATCH] CONFIG_ISA does not make sense for CONFIG_PPC_PSERIES
Older pSeries systems with serial ports dont get any console output after
recent changes.  CONFIG_ISA does not make sense for CONFIG_PPC_PSERIES
because it enables lots of old drivers.  Instead, remove the dependency on
CONFIG_ISA from the serial port discovery code.

150256d8aa [PATCH] Generic sys_rt_sigsuspend()
The TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK flag allows us to have a generic implementation of
sys_rt_sigsuspend() instead of duplicating it for each architecture.  This
provides such an implementation and makes arch/powerpc use it.

It also tidies up the ppc32 sys_sigsuspend() to use TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK.

When I removed the powermac support from arch/ppc/kernel/pci.c,
I overlooked the fact that that file is used in 32-bit ARCH=powerpc
builds.  To prevent problems in future, restore the original version
of that file as arch/powerpc/kernel/pci_32.c, and use that.

8385a6a3ac [PATCH] powerpc: Fix kdump copy regs and dynamic allocate per-cpu crash notes
- This contains the arch specific changes for the following the
kdump generic fixes which were already accepted in the upstream.
       .   Capturing CPU registers (for the case of 'panic' and invoking
the dump using 'sysrq-trigger') from a function (stack frame) which will
be not be available during the kdump boot. Hence, might result in
invalid stack trace.
       .   Dynamically allocating per cpu ELF notes section instead of
statically for NR_CPUS.

- Fix the compiler warning in prom_init.c.

d5f079000b [PATCH] powerpc: Recognize /chaos bridge on old pmacs as PCI
The first generation of PCI powermacs had a host bridge called /chaos
which was for all intents and purposes a PCI host bridge, but has a
device_type of "vci" in the device tree (presumably it's not really
PCI at the hardware level or something).

The OF parsing stuff in arch/powerpc/kernel/prom_parse.c currently
doesn't recognize it as a PCI bridge, which means that controlfb.c
can't get its device addresses.

This makes prom_parse.c recognize a device_type of "vci" as indicating
a PCI host bridge.  With this, controlfb works again.

91dc182ca6 [PATCH] powerpc: special-case ibm,suspend-me RTAS call
Handle the ibm,suspend-me RTAS call specially.  It needs
to be wrapped in a set of synchronization hypervisor calls
(H_Join).  When the H_Join calls are made on all CPUs, the
intent is that only one will return with H_Continue, meaning
that he is the "last man standing".  That CPU then issues the
ibm,suspend-me call.  What is interesting, of course, is that
the CPU running when the rtas syscall is made, may NOT be the
CPU that ultimately executes the ibm,suspend-me rtas call.
