At the moment the allmodconfig build is failing because we run out of
space between altivec_assist() at 0x5700 and the fwnmi_data_area at
0x7000.
Fixing it permanently will take some more work, but a quick fix is to
move bad_stack() below the fwnmi_data_area. That gives us just enough
room with everything enabled.
bad_stack() is called from the common exception handlers, but it's a
non-conditional branch, so we have plenty of scope to move it further
way.

By then we'd also broken it with the optimised memcpy, copy_to/from_user

Currently we have sys_sigpending and sys_old_getrlimit defined to use
COMPAT_SYS() in systbl.h, but then both are #defined to sys_ni_syscall
in systbl.S.
This seems to have been done when ppc and ppc64 were merged, in commit
9994a33 "Introduce entry_{32,64}.S, misc_{32,64}.S, systbl.S".
AFAICS there's no longer (or never was) any need for this, we can just
use SYSX() for both and remove the #defines to sys_ni_syscall.
The expansion before was:
#define COMPAT_SYS(func) .llong .sys_##func,.compat_sys_##func
#define sys_old_getrlimit sys_ni_syscall
COMPAT_SYS(old_getrlimit)
=>
.llong .sys_old_getrlimit,.compat_sys_old_getrlimit
=>
.llong .sys_ni_syscall,.compat_sys_old_getrlimit
After is:
#define SYSX(f, f3264, f32) .llong .f,.f3264
SYSX(sys_ni_syscall, compat_sys_old_getrlimit, sys_old_getrlimit)
=>
.llong .sys_ni_syscall,.compat_sys_old_getrlimit
ie. they are equivalent.
Finally both COMPAT_SYS() and SYSX() evaluate to sys_ni_syscall in the
Cell SPU code.

Commit 8d6f7c5a: "powerpc/powernv: Make it possible to skip the IRQHAPPENED
check in power7_nap()" added code that prevents cpus from checking for
pending interrupts just before entering sleep state, which is wrong. These
interrupts are delivered during the soft irq disabled state of the cpu.
A cpu cannot enter any idle state with pending interrupts because they will
never be serviced until the next time the cpu is woken up by some other
interrupt. Its only then that the pending interrupts are replayed. This can result
in device timeouts or warnings about this cpu being stuck.
This patch fixes ths issue by ensuring that cpus check for pending interrupts
just before entering any idle state as long as they are not in the path of split
core operations.

The commit 71ec7c55ed introduced the magic symbol ".TOC." for ELFv2 ABI.
This symbol is built manually and has no CRC value computed. A zero value
is put in the CRC section to avoid modpost complaining about a missing CRC.
Unfortunately, this breaks the kernel module loading when the kernel is
relocated (kdump case for instance) because of the relocation applied to
the kcrctab values.
This patch compute a CRC value for the TOC symbol which will match the one
compute by the kernel when it is relocated - aka '0 - relocate_start' done in
maybe_relocated called by check_version (module.c).

In commit 27f4488872 "Add OPAL takeover from PowerVM" we added support
for "takeover" on OPAL v1 machines.
This was a mode of operation where we would boot under pHyp, and query
for the presence of OPAL. If detected we would then do a special
sequence to take over the machine, and the kernel would end up running
in hypervisor mode.
OPAL v1 was never a supported product, and was never shipped outside
IBM. As far as we know no one is still using it.
Newer versions of OPAL do not use the takeover mechanism. Although the
query for OPAL should be harmless on machines with newer OPAL, we have
seen a machine where it causes a crash in Open Firmware.
The code in early_init_devtree() to copy boot_command_line into cmd_line
was added in commit 817c21ad9a "Get kernel command line accross OPAL
takeover", and AFAIK is only used by takeover, so should also be

will do the right thing for 32 & 64 bit and ABI v1 & v2.

Current code does not check for unhandled/unrecovered errors and return from
interrupt if it is recoverable exception which in-turn triggers same machine
check exception in a loop causing hypervisor to be unresponsive.
This patch fixes this situation and forces hypervisor to panic for
unhandled/unrecovered errors.
This patch also fixes another issue where unrecoverable_exception routine
was called in real mode in case of unrecoverable exception (MSR_RI = 0).
This causes another exception vector 0x300 (data access) during system crash
leading to confusion while debugging cause of the system crash.
Also turn ME bit off while going down, so that when another MCE is hit during
panic path, system will checkstop and hypervisor will get restarted cleanly
by SP.
With the above fixes we now throw correct console messages (see below) while
crashing the system in case of unhandled/unrecoverable machine checks.

On PowerNV platform, EEH errors are reported by IO accessors or poller
driven by interrupt. After the PE is isolated, we won't produce EEH
event for the PE. The current implementation has possibility of EEH
event lost in this way:
The interrupt handler queues one "special" event, which drives the poller.
EEH thread doesn't pick the special event yet. IO accessors kicks in, the
frozen PE is marked as "isolated" and EEH event is queued to the list.
EEH thread runs because of special event and purge all existing EEH events.
However, we never produce an other EEH event for the frozen PE. Eventually,
the PE is marked as "isolated" and we don't have EEH event to recover it.
The patch fixes the issue to keep EEH events for PEs that have been
marked as "isolated" with the help of additional "force" help to
eeh_remove_event().

Correct the DSCR SPR becoming temporarily corrupted if a task is
context switched during a transaction.
The problem occurs while suspending the task and is caused by saving
the DSCR to thread.dscr after it has already been set to the CPU's
default value:
__switch_to() calls __switch_to_tm()
which calls tm_reclaim_task()
which calls tm_reclaim_thread()
which calls tm_reclaim()
where the DSCR is set to the CPU's default
__switch_to() calls _switch()
where thread.dscr is set to the DSCR
When the task is resumed, it's transaction will be doomed (as usual)
and the DSCR SPR will be corrupted, although the checkpointed value
will be correct. Therefore the DSCR will be immediately corrected by
the transaction aborting, unless it has been suspended. In that case
the incorrect value can be seen by the task until it resumes the
transaction.
The fix is to treat the DSCR similarly to the TAR and save it early
in __switch_to().
A program exposing the problem is added to the kernel self tests as:

WSP is the last user of CONFIG_PPC_A2, so we remove that as well.
Although CONFIG_PPC_ICSWX still exists, it's no longer selectable for
any Book3E platform, so we can remove the code in mmu-book3e.h that
depended on it.

The Kconfig symbol SERIAL_TEXT_DEBUG was removed from
arch/powerpc/Kconfig.debug in v2.6.22. (In v2.6.27 it was also removed
from arch/ppc/Kconfig.debug.) So the check for its macro has evaluated
to false for over five years now. Remove that check and the few lines
of code hidden behind it.

Pull powerpc updates from Ben Herrenschmidt:
"Here is the bulk of the powerpc changes for this merge window. It got
a bit delayed in part because I wasn't paying attention, and in part
because I discovered I had a core PCI change without a PCI maintainer
ack in it. Bjorn eventually agreed it was ok to merge it though we'll
probably improve it later and I didn't want to rebase to add his ack.
There is going to be a bit more next week, essentially fixes that I
still want to sort through and test.
The biggest item this time is the support to build the ppc64 LE kernel
with our new v2 ABI. We previously supported v2 userspace but the
kernel itself was a tougher nut to crack. This is now sorted mostly
thanks to Anton and Rusty.
We also have a fairly big series from Cedric that add support for
64-bit LE zImage boot wrapper. This was made harder by the fact that
traditionally our zImage wrapper was always 32-bit, but our new LE
toolchains don't really support 32-bit anymore (it's somewhat there
but not really "supported") so we didn't want to rely on it. This
meant more churn that just endian fixes.
This brings some more LE bits as well, such as the ability to run in
LE mode without a hypervisor (ie. under OPAL firmware) by doing the
right OPAL call to reinitialize the CPU to take HV interrupts in the
right mode and the usual pile of endian fixes.
There's another series from Gavin adding EEH improvements (one day we
*will* have a release with less than 20 EEH patches, I promise!).
Another highlight is the support for the "Split core" functionality on
P8 by Michael. This allows a P8 core to be split into "sub cores" of
4 threads which allows the subcores to run different guests under KVM
(the HW still doesn't support a partition per thread).
And then the usual misc bits and fixes ..."

Basically, this patch does the following:
1. Move the codes of parsing boot parameters from setup-common.c
to driver. In this way, code reader can know directly that
there are boot parameters that can change the timeout.
2. Make boot parameter 'booke_wdt_period' effective.
currently, when driver is loaded, default timeout is always
being used in stead of booke_wdt_period.
3. Wrap up the watchdog timeout in device struct and clean up
unnecessary codes.

It is better not to think about compute capacity as being equivalent
to "CPU power". The upcoming "power aware" scheduler work may create
confusion with the notion of energy consumption if "power" is used too
liberally.
Let's rename the following feature flags since they do relate to capacity:
SD_SHARE_CPUPOWER -> SD_SHARE_CPUCAPACITY
ARCH_POWER -> ARCH_CAPACITY
NONTASK_POWER -> NONTASK_CAPACITY

When eeh is not enabled, and hotplug two pci devices on the same bus, eeh
related sysfs would be added twice for the first added pci device. Since the
eeh_dev is not created when eeh is not enabled.
This patch adds the check, if eeh is not enabled, eeh sysfs will not be
created.
After applying this patch, following warnings are reduced:
sysfs: cannot create duplicate filename '/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:00.0/eeh_mode'

We had a mix & match of flags used when creating legacy ports
depending on where we found them in the device-tree. Among others
we were missing UPF_SKIP_TEST for some kind of ISA ports which is
a problem as quite a few UARTs out there don't support the loopback
test (such as a lot of BMCs).
Let's pick the set of flags used by the SoC code and generalize it
which means autoconf, no loopback test, irq maybe shared and fixed
port.
Sending to stable as the lack of UPF_SKIP_TEST is breaking
serial on some machines so I want this back into distros
