David Gibson 25c8a78b1e [PATCH] powerpc: Fix handling of fpscr on 64-bit
The recent merge of fpu.S broken the handling of fpscr for
ARCH=powerpc and CONFIG_PPC64=y.  FP registers could be corrupted,
leading to strange random application crashes.

The confusion arises, because the thread_struct has (and requires) a
64-bit area to save the fpscr, because we use load/store double
instructions to get it in to/out of the FPU.  However, only the low
32-bits are actually used, so we want to treat it as a 32-bit quantity
when manipulating its bits to avoid extra load/stores on 32-bit.  This
patch replaces the current definition with a structure of two 32-bit
quantities (pad and val), to clarify things as much as is possible.
The 'val' field is used when manipulating bits, the structure itself
is used when obtaining the address for loading/unloading the value
from the FPU.

While we're at it, consolidate the 4 (!) almost identical versions of
cvt_fd() and cvt_df() (arch/ppc/kernel/misc.S,
arch/ppc64/kernel/misc.S, arch/powerpc/kernel/misc_32.S,
arch/powerpc/kernel/misc_64.S) into a single version in fpu.S.  The
new version takes a pointer to thread_struct and applies the correct
offset itself, rather than a pointer to the fpscr field itself, again
to avoid confusion as to which is the correct field to use.

Finally, this patch makes ARCH=ppc64 also use the consolidated fpu.S
code, which it previously did not.

Built for G5 (ARCH=ppc64 and ARCH=powerpc), 32-bit powermac (ARCH=ppc
and ARCH=powerpc) and Walnut (ARCH=ppc, CONFIG_MATH_EMULATION=y).
Booted on G5 (ARCH=powerpc) and things which previously fell over no
longer do.

Michael Ellerman 90eac727c6 [PATCH] powerpc: Don't blow away load_addr in start_thread
The patch to make process.c work for 32-bit and 64-bit
(06d67d5474) broke some 64-bit binaries.
We were blowing away load_addr in gpr[2], so we weren't properly relocating
the entry point.

Paul Mackerras c0c0d996d0 powerpc: Get merged kernel to compile and run on 32-bit SMP powermac.
This updates the powermac SMP code to use the mpic driver instead of
the openpic driver and fixes the SMP-dependent context switch code.
We had a subtle bug where we were using interrupt numbers 256-259 for
IPIs, but ppc32 had NR_IRQS = 256.  Moved the IPIs down to use interrupt
numbers 252-255 instead.

Paul Mackerras 20c8c21063 powerpc: Fixes to get the merged kernel to boot on powermac.
This merges ppc_ksyms.c, puts back the actual do_execve call in
sys_execve, makes init_MMU call find_end_of_memory rather than
ppc_md.find_end_of_memory (every platform has a device tree
with a /memory node now, right?) and fixes some problems with the
mpic initialization on newworld powermacs.

Paul Mackerras 14cf11af6c powerpc: Merge enough to start building in arch/powerpc.
This creates the directory structure under arch/powerpc and a bunch
of Kconfig files.  It does a first-cut merge of arch/powerpc/mm,
arch/powerpc/lib and arch/powerpc/platforms/powermac.  This is enough
to build a 32-bit powermac kernel with ARCH=powerpc.

For now we are getting some unmerged files from arch/ppc/kernel and
arch/ppc/syslib, or arch/ppc64/kernel.  This makes some minor changes
to files in those directories and files outside arch/powerpc.

The boot directory is still not merged.  That's going to be interesting.
