powerpc+of: Rename the drivers/of prom_* functions to of_*

2012-11-15T01:56:52+00:00

Rename the prom_*_property routines of the generic OF code to of_*_property.
This brings them in line with the naming used by the rest of the OF code.

powerpc: Export memory limit via device tree

2012-09-07T01:44:33+00:00

The powerpc kernel doesn't export the memory limit enforced by 'mem='
kernel parameter. This is required for building the ELF header in
kexec-tools to limit the vmcore to capture only the used memory. On
powerpc the kexec-tools depends on the device-tree for memory related
information, unlike /proc/iomem on the x86.

Without this information, the kexec-tools assumes the entire System
RAM and vmcore creates an unnecessarily larger dump.

This patch exports the memory limit, if present, via
chosen/linux,memory-limit
property, so that the vmcore can be limited to the memory limit.

The prom_init seems to export this value in the same node. But doesn't
really
appear there.  Also the memory_limit gets adjusted with the processing of
crashkernel= parameter. This patch makes sure we get the actual limit.

The kexec-tools will use the value to limit the 'end' of the memory
regions.

Tested this patch on ppc64 and ppc32(ppc440) with a kexec-tools
patch by Mahesh.

powerpc: Change memory_limit from phys_addr_t to unsigned long long

2012-09-07T01:44:30+00:00

There are some device-tree nodes, whose values are of type phys_addr_t.
The phys_addr_t is variable sized based on the CONFIG_PHSY_T_64BIT.

Change these to a fixed unsigned long long for consistency.

This patch does the change only for memory_limit.

The following is a list of such variables which need the change:

 1) kernel_end, crashk_size - in arch/powerpc/kernel/machine_kexec.c

 2) (struct resource *)crashk_res.start - We could export a local static
    variable from machine_kexec.c.

Changing the above values might break the kexec-tools. So, I will
fix kexec-tools first to handle the different sized values and then change
 the above.

powerpc/irqdomain: Fix broken NR_IRQ references

2012-04-30T00:45:26+00:00

The switch from using irq_map to irq_alloc_desc*() for managing irq
number allocations introduced new bugs in some of the powerpc
interrupt code.  Several functions rely on the value of NR_IRQS to
determine the maximum irq number that could get allocated.  However,
with sparse_irq and using irq_alloc_desc*() the maximum possible irq
number is now specified with 'nr_irqs' which may be a number larger
than NR_IRQS.  This has caused breakage on powermac when
CONFIG_NR_IRQS is set to 32.

This patch removes most of the direct references to NR_IRQS in the
powerpc code and replaces them with either a nr_irqs reference or by
using the common for_each_irq_desc() macro.  The powerpc-specific
for_each_irq() macro is removed at the same time.

Also, the Cell axon_msi driver is refactored to remove the global
build assumption on the size of NR_IRQS and instead add a limit to the
maximum irq number when calling irq_domain_add_nomap().

powerpc: Rename mapping based RELOCATABLE to DYNAMIC_MEMSTART for BookE

2011-12-20T15:20:19+00:00

The current implementation of CONFIG_RELOCATABLE in BookE is based
on mapping the page aligned kernel load address to KERNELBASE. This
approach however is not enough for platforms, where the TLB page size
is large (e.g, 256M on 44x). So we are renaming the RELOCATABLE used
currently in BookE to DYNAMIC_MEMSTART to reflect the actual method.

The CONFIG_RELOCATABLE for PPC32(BookE) based on processing of the
dynamic relocations will be introduced in the later in the patch series.

This change would allow the use of the old method of RELOCATABLE for
platforms which can afford to enforce the page alignment (platforms with
smaller TLB size).

Changes since v3:

* Introduced a new config, NONSTATIC_KERNEL, to denote a kernel which is
  either a RELOCATABLE or DYNAMIC_MEMSTART(Suggested by: Josh Boyer)

memblock: s/memblock_analyze()/memblock_allow_resize()/ and update users

2011-12-08T18:22:08+00:00

The only function of memblock_analyze() is now allowing resize of
memblock region arrays.  Rename it to memblock_allow_resize() and
update its users.

* The following users remain the same other than renaming.

  arm/mm/init.c::arm_memblock_init()
  microblaze/kernel/prom.c::early_init_devtree()
  powerpc/kernel/prom.c::early_init_devtree()
  openrisc/kernel/prom.c::early_init_devtree()
  sh/mm/init.c::paging_init()
  sparc/mm/init_64.c::paging_init()
  unicore32/mm/init.c::uc32_memblock_init()

* In the following users, analyze was used to update total size which
  is no longer necessary.

  powerpc/kernel/machine_kexec.c::reserve_crashkernel()
  powerpc/kernel/prom.c::early_init_devtree()
  powerpc/mm/init_32.c::MMU_init()
  powerpc/mm/tlb_nohash.c::__early_init_mmu()  
  powerpc/platforms/ps3/mm.c::ps3_mm_add_memory()
  powerpc/platforms/embedded6xx/wii.c::wii_memory_fixups()
  sh/kernel/machine_kexec.c::reserve_crashkernel()

* x86/kernel/e820.c::memblock_x86_fill() was directly setting
  memblock_can_resize before populating memblock and calling analyze
  afterwards.  Call memblock_allow_resize() before start populating.

memblock_can_resize is now static inside memblock.c.

powerpc: Move kdump default base address to half RMO size on 64bit

2011-08-05T04:47:56+00:00

We are seeing boot failures on some very large boxes even with
commit b5416ca9f824 (powerpc: Move kdump default base address to
64MB on 64bit).

This patch halves the RMO so both kernels get about the same
amount of RMO memory. On large machines this region will be
at least 256MB, so each kernel will get 128MB.

We cap it at 256MB (small SLB size) since some early allocations need
to be in the bolted SLB region. We could relax this on machines with
1TB SLBs in a future patch.

treewide: Convert uses of struct resource to resource_size(ptr)

2011-06-10T12:55:36+00:00

Several fixes as well where the +1 was missing.

Done via coccinelle scripts like:

@@
struct resource *ptr;
@@

- ptr->end - ptr->start + 1
+ resource_size(ptr)

and some grep and typing.

Mostly uncompiled, no cross-compilers.
