Anton Blanchard 98da581e08 powerpc: Move part of giveup_fpu,altivec,spe into c
Move the MSR modification into new c functions. Removing it from
the low level functions will allow us to avoid costly MSR writes
by batching them up.

Move the check_if_tm_restore_required() check into these new functions.

Anton Blanchard bfe9a2cfe9 powerpc: Reimplement __get_SP() as a function not a define
Li Zhong points out an issue with our current __get_SP()
implementation. If ftrace function tracing is enabled (ie -pg
profiling using _mcount) we spill a stack frame on 64bit all the
time.

If a function calls __get_SP() and later calls a function that is
tail call optimised, we will pop the stack frame and the value
returned by __get_SP() is no longer valid. An example from Li can
be found in save_stack_trace -> save_context_stack:

c0000000000432c0 <.save_stack_trace>:
c0000000000432c0:       mflr    r0
c0000000000432c4:       std     r0,16(r1)
c0000000000432c8:       stdu    r1,-128(r1) <-- stack frame for _mcount
c0000000000432cc:       std     r3,112(r1)
c0000000000432d0:       bl      <._mcount>
c0000000000432d4:       nop

c0000000000432d8:       mr      r4,r1 <-- __get_SP()

c0000000000432dc:       ld      r5,632(r13)
c0000000000432e0:       ld      r3,112(r1)
c0000000000432e4:       li      r6,1

c0000000000432e8:       addi    r1,r1,128 <-- pop stack frame

c0000000000432ec:       ld      r0,16(r1)
c0000000000432f0:       mtlr    r0
c0000000000432f4:       b       <.save_context_stack> <-- tail call optimized

save_context_stack ends up with a stack pointer below the current
one, and it is likely to be scribbled over.

Fix this by making __get_SP() a function which returns the
callers stack frame. Also replace inline assembly which grabs
the stack pointer in save_stack_trace and show_stack with
__get_SP().

This also fixes an issue with perf_arch_fetch_caller_regs().
It currently unwinds the stack once, which will skip a
valid stack frame on a leaf function. With the __get_SP() fixes
in this patch, we never need to unwind the stack frame to get
to the first interesting frame.

We have to export __get_SP() because perf_arch_fetch_caller_regs()
(which is used in modules) calls it from a header file.

Philippe Bergheaud 00f554fade powerpc: memcpy optimization for 64bit LE
Unaligned stores take alignment exceptions on POWER7 running in little-endian.
This is a dumb little-endian base memcpy that prevents unaligned stores.
Once booted the feature fixup code switches over to the VMX copy loops
(which are already endian safe).

The question is what we do before that switch over. The base 64bit
memcpy takes alignment exceptions on POWER7 so we can't use it as is.
Fixing the causes of alignment exception would slow it down, because
we'd need to ensure all loads and stores are aligned either through
rotate tricks or bytewise loads and stores. Either would be bad for
all other 64bit platforms.

[ I simplified the loop a bit - Anton ]

Paul Mackerras 18461960cb powerpc: Provide for giveup_fpu/altivec to save state in alternate location
This provides a facility which is intended for use by KVM, where the
contents of the FP/VSX and VMX (Altivec) registers can be saved away
to somewhere other than the thread_struct when kernel code wants to
use floating point or VMX instructions.  This is done by providing a
pointer in the thread_struct to indicate where the state should be
saved to.  The giveup_fpu() and giveup_altivec() functions test these
pointers and save state to the indicated location if they are non-NULL.
Note that the MSR_FP/VEC bits in task->thread.regs->msr are still used
to indicate whether the CPU register state is live, even when an
alternate save location is being used.

This also provides load_fp_state() and load_vr_state() functions, which
load up FP/VSX and VMX state from memory into the CPU registers, and
corresponding store_fp_state() and store_vr_state() functions, which
store FP/VSX and VMX state into memory from the CPU registers.

Note that I'm using local invalidations for D->I cache coherency.

At worst, if another processor is trying to execute the same and
has the old entry in its TLB, it will just take a fault and re-do
the TLB flush locally (it won't re-do the cache flush in any case).

Kumar Gala 0ba3418b8b powerpc: Introduce local (non-broadcast) forms of tlb invalidates
Introduced a new set of low level tlb invalidate functions that do not
broadcast invalidates on the bus:

_tlbil_all - invalidate all
_tlbil_pid - invalidate based on process id (or mm context)
_tlbil_va  - invalidate based on virtual address (ea + pid)

On non-SMP configs _tlbil_all should be functionally equivalent to _tlbia and
_tlbil_va should be functionally equivalent to _tlbie.

The intent of this change is to handle SMP based invalidates via IPIs instead
of broadcasts as the mechanism scales better for larger number of cores.

On e500 (fsl-booke mmu) based cores move to using MMUCSR for invalidate alls
and tlbsx/tlbwe for invalidate virtual address.

Stephen Rothwell 4a96db3c78 [POWERPC] Remove ppc32's export of console_drivers
There are no in-tree uses of the export any more and in linux-next there
is a change that exports it globally which causes warnings:

WARNING: vmlinux: 'console_drivers' exported twice. Previous export was in vmlinux

and in one case (mpc85xx_defconfig) a build error:

kernel/built-in.o: In function `__crc_console_drivers':
(*ABS*+0x1eb0e6f5): multiple definition of `__crc_console_drivers'

So remove the export now.  Also, there is no longer any need to include
linux/console.h.

Samuel Thibault f7511d5f66 Basic braille screen reader support
This adds a minimalistic braille screen reader support.  This is meant to
be used by blind people e.g.  on boot failures or when / cannot be mounted
etc and thus the userland screen readers can not work.
