The device tree code is now in two pieces: some which can be used generically
on any platform which selects CONFIG_OF_FLATTREE, and some early which is used
at boot time on only a few architectures. This patch segregates the early
code so that only those architectures which care about it need compile it.
This also means that some of the requirements in the early code (such as
a cmd_line variable) that most architectures (e.g. X86) don't provide
can be ignored.

Provide a mechanism that allows running code in IRQ context. It is
most useful for NMI code that needs to interact with the rest of the
system -- like wakeup a task to drain buffers.
Perf currently has such a mechanism, so extract that and provide it as
a generic feature, independent of perf so that others may also
benefit.
The IRQ context callback is generated through self-IPIs where
possible, or on architectures like powerpc the decrementer (the
built-in timer facility) is set to generate an interrupt immediately.
Architectures that don't have anything like this get to do with a
callback from the timer tick. These architectures can call
irq_work_run() at the tail of any IRQ handlers that might enqueue such
work (like the perf IRQ handler) to avoid undue latencies in
processing the work.

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

per-task breakpoints
- perform arch-specific cleanup before unregistration through

The description says:
Cause IO segments sent to a device for DMA to be merged virtually
by the IOMMU when they happen to have been allocated contiguously.
This doesn't add pressure to the IOMMU allocator. However, some
drivers don't support getting large merged segments coming back
from *_map_sg().
Most drivers don't have this problem; it is safe to say Y here.
It's out of date. Long ago, drivers didn't have a way to tell IOMMUs
about their segment length limit (that is, the maximum segment length
that they can handle). So IOMMUs merged as many segments as possible
and gave too large segments to drivers.
dma_get_max_seg_size() was introduced to solve the above
problem. Device drives can use the API to tell IOMMU about the maximum
segment length that they can handle. In addition, the default limit
(64K) should be safe for everyone.
So this config option seems to be unnecessary.
Note that this config option just enables users to disable the virtual
merging by default. Users can still disable the virtual merging by the
boot parameter.

powerpc/booke: Introduce new CONFIG options for advanced debug registers
From: Dave Kleikamp <shaggy@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
Introduce new config options to simplify the ifdefs pertaining to the
advanced debug registers for booke and 40x processors:
CONFIG_PPC_ADV_DEBUG_REGS - boolean: true for dac-based processors
CONFIG_PPC_ADV_DEBUG_IACS - number of IAC registers
CONFIG_PPC_ADV_DEBUG_DACS - number of DAC registers
CONFIG_PPC_ADV_DEBUG_DVCS - number of DVC registers
CONFIG_PPC_ADV_DEBUG_DAC_RANGE - DAC ranges supported
Beginning conservatively, since I only have the facilities to test 440
hardware. I believe all 40x and booke platforms support at least 2 IAC
and 2 DAC registers. For 440, 4 IAC and 2 DVC registers are enabled, as
well as the DAC ranges.

With dynamic irq descriptors the overhead of a large NR_IRQS is much lower
than it used to be. With more MSI-X capable adapters and drivers exploiting
multiple vectors we may as well allow the user to increase it beyond the
current maximum of 512.
32768 seems large enough that we'd never have to bump it again (although I bet
my prediction is horribly wrong). It boot tests OK and the vmlinux footprint
increase is only around 500kB due to:
struct irq_map_entry irq_map[NR_IRQS];

Version 3 of this patch is updated with documentation added to
Documentation/ABI. There are no changes to any of the C code from v2
of the patch.
In order to support kernel DLPAR of CPU resources we need to provide an
interface to add (probe) and remove (release) the resource from the system.
This patch Creates new generic probe and release sysfs files to facilitate
cpu probe/release. The probe/release interface provides for allowing each
arch to supply their own routines for implementing the backend of adding
and removing cpus to/from the system.
This also creates the powerpc specific stubs to handle the arch callouts
from writes to the sysfs files.
The creation and use of these files is regulated by the
CONFIG_ARCH_CPU_PROBE_RELEASE option so that only architectures that need the
capability will have the files created.

Just as with kexec, hibernation may fail even on well-tested platforms:
some PCI device, a driver of which doesn't play well with hibernation,
is enough to break resuming.
Hibernation code is not much platform dependent, and hiding features only
because these were not verified on a particular hardware is
counterproductive: we just prevent the features from being widely tested.
For example, with this patch I just tested hibernation on a MPC83xx
board, and it works quite well, modulo a few drivers that need some
fixing.
So, let's make it possible to select hibernation support for all
PowerPCs, then let's wait for any possible bug reports, and actually fix
(or just collect ;-) the bugs instead of hiding them. If some platforms
really can't stand hibernation, we can make a blacklist, with proper
comments why exactly hibernation doesn't work, whether it is possible to
fix, and what needs to be done to fix it.
CONFIG_HIBERNATION is still =n by default, so the commit doesn't change
anything apart from ability to set it to =y.
I'm not sure if EXPERIMENTAL dependency is needed, I'd rather not add it
for a few reasons:
1) It doesn't matter much, for distro kernels user has no clue that some
feature is experimental. Majority of defconfigs enable EXPERIMENTAL
anyway (90 vs. 4, which, btw, means that EXPERIMENTAL is overused
in Kconfigs);
2) EXPERIMENTAL is a good thing for features that change default
behaviour of a kernel, while for hibernation user has to explicitly
issue 'echo disk > /sys/power/state' to trigger any hibernation bugs;
3) Per init/Kconfig, EXPERIMENTAL is a good thing to scare and discourage
users from 'widespread use of a feature', while we want to encourage
that use.
