Michael Ellerman ff8a8f2597 [POWERPC] add support for stopping spus from xmon
This patch adds support for stopping, and restarting, spus
from xmon. We use the spu master runcntl bit to stop execution,
this is apparently the "right" way to control spu execution and
spufs will be changed in the future to use this bit.

Testing has shown that to restart execution we have to turn the
master runcntl bit on and also rewrite the spu runcntl bit, even
if it is already set to 1 (running).

Stopping spus is triggered by the xmon command 'ss' - "spus stop"
perhaps. Restarting them is triggered via 'sr'. Restart doesn't
start execution on spus unless they were running prior to being
stopped by xmon.

Walking the spu->full_list in xmon after a panic, would mean
corruption of any spu struct would make all the others
inaccessible. To avoid this, and also to make the next patch
easier, we cache pointers to all spus during boot.

We attempt to catch and recover from errors while stopping and
restarting the spus, but as with most xmon functionality there are
no guarantees that performing these operations won't crash xmon
itself.

arnd@arndb.de 302eca184f [POWERPC] cell: use ppc_md->power_save instead of cbe_idle_loop
This moves the cell idle function to use the default cpu_idle
with a special power_save callback, like all other platforms
except iSeries already do.

It also makes it possible to disable this power_save function
with a new powerpc-specific boot option "powersave=off".

Jeremy Kerr 099814bb1f [POWERPC] spufs: Add isolated-mode SPE recycling support
When in isolated mode, SPEs have access to an area of persistent
storage, which is per-SPE. In order for isolated-mode apps to
communicate arbitrary data through this storage, we need to ensure that
isolated physical SPEs can be reused for subsequent applications.

Add a file ("recycle") in a spethread dir to enable isolated-mode
recycling. By writing to this file, the kernel will reload the
isolated-mode loader kernel, allowing a new app to be run on the same
physical SPE.

This requires the spu_acquire_exclusive function to enforce exclusive
access to the SPE while the loader is initialised.

arnd@arndb.de 0afacde3df [POWERPC] spufs: allow isolated mode apps by starting the SPE loader
This patch adds general support for isolated mode SPE apps.

Isolated apps are started indirectly, by a dedicated loader "kernel".
This patch starts the loader when spe_create is invoked with the
ISOLATE flag. We do this at spe_create time to allow libspe to pass the
isolated app in before calling spe_run.

The loader is read from the device tree, at the location
"/spu-isolation/loader". If the loader is not present, an attempt to
start an isolated SPE binary will fail with -ENODEV.

Update: loader needs to be correctly aligned - copy to a kmalloced buf.
Update: remove workaround for systemsim/spurom 'L-bit' bug, which has
        been fixed.
Update: don't write to runcntl on spu_run_init: SPU is already running.
Update: do spu_setup_isolated earlier

Tested on systemsim.

Masato Noguchi 24f43b33f7 [POWERPC] spufs: wrap mfc sdr access
SPRN_SDR1 and the SPE's MFC SDR are hypervisor resources and
are not accessible from a logical partition.  This change adds an
access wrapper.

When running on bare H/W, the spufs needs to only set the SPE's MFC SDR
to the value of the PPE's SPRN_SDR1 once at SPE initialization, so this
change renames mfc_sdr_set() to mfc_sdr_setup() and moves the
access of SPRN_SDR1 into the mmio wrapper.  It also removes the now
unneeded member mfc_sdr_RW from struct spu_priv1_collapsed.

The iSeries code had a "feature" which the generic code lacks, ie. if the
compressed initrd is bigger than the configured ram disk size, we make
the ram disk size bigger. That's bogus, as the compressed size of the initrd
tells us nothing about how big the ram disk needs to be. If the ram disk
isn't big enough you just need to make CONFIG_BLK_DEV_RAM_SIZE larger.

The lazy IRQ disable patch missed a couple of places where the

Instead of saving it on entry, we compute it from the MSR_EE bit
in the MSR we are restoring at exit.  Secondly, the MMU hash miss

Paul Mackerras d04c56f73c [POWERPC] Lazy interrupt disabling for 64-bit machines
This implements a lazy strategy for disabling interrupts.  This means
that local_irq_disable() et al. just clear the 'interrupts are
enabled' flag in the paca.  If an interrupt comes along, the interrupt
entry code notices that interrupts are supposed to be disabled, and
clears the EE bit in SRR1, clears the 'interrupts are hard-enabled'
flag in the paca, and returns.  This means that interrupts only
actually get disabled in the processor when an interrupt comes along.

When interrupts are enabled by local_irq_enable() et al., the code
sets the interrupts-enabled flag in the paca, and then checks whether
interrupts got hard-disabled.  If so, it also sets the EE bit in the
MSR to hard-enable the interrupts.

This has the potential to improve performance, and also makes it
easier to make a kernel that can boot on iSeries and on other 64-bit
machines, since this lazy-disable strategy is very similar to the
soft-disable strategy that iSeries already uses.

This version renames paca->proc_enabled to paca->soft_enabled, and
changes a couple of soft-disables in the kexec code to hard-disables,
which should fix the crash that Michael Ellerman saw.  This doesn't
yet use a reserved CR field for the soft_enabled and hard_enabled
flags.  This applies on top of Stephen Rothwell's patches to make it
possible to build a combined iSeries/other kernel.

Petr Vandrovec a7a0d86f5a [PATCH] Fix core files so they make sense to gdb...
It is silly to use non-static variable for writting zeroes to the file.

And more seriously, foffset in core dump file dump function was incremented
too much, so some parts of core dump were shifted by size of few phdrs and
notes down, so although gdb was able to load that file, it did not make lot
of sense - in my test case data pages were shifted down by about 900 bytes.
