powerpc: Fix 32-bit SMP build

2011-05-20T23:23:19+00:00

Commit 69e3cea8d5fd526 ("powerpc/smp: Make start_secondary_resume
available to all CPU variants") introduced start_secondary_resume to
misc_32.S, however it uses a 64-bit instruction which is not valid on
32-bit platforms.  Use 'stw' instead.

powerpc/smp: Make start_secondary_resume available to all CPU variants

2011-05-19T03:07:12+00:00

This should fix SMP & Hotplug builds on FSL BookE and 476

powerpc: Remove second definition of STACK_FRAME_OVERHEAD

2010-11-29T04:48:23+00:00

Since STACK_FRAME_OVERHEAD is defined in asm/ptrace.h and that
is ASSEMBER safe, we can just include that instead of going via
asm-offsets.h.

powerpc/kexec: Adds correct calling convention for kexec purgatory

2010-08-31T01:35:12+00:00

Call kexec purgatory code correctly. We were getting lucky before.
If you examine the powerpc 32bit kexec "purgatory" code you will
see it expects the following:

>From kexec-tools: purgatory/arch/ppc/v2wrap_32.S
-> calling convention:
->   r3 = physical number of this cpu (all cpus)
->   r4 = address of this chunk (master only)

As such, we need to set r3 to the current core, r4 happens to be
unused by purgatory at the moment but we go ahead and set it
here as well

powerpc: Unconditionally enabled irq stacks

2010-06-15T05:02:37+00:00

Irq stacks provide an essential protection from stack overflows through
external interrupts, at the cost of two additionals stacks per CPU.

Enable them unconditionally to simplify the kernel build and prevent
people from accidentally disabling them.

powerpc/kexec: Add support for FSL-BookE

2010-05-25T02:25:32+00:00

This adds support kexec on FSL-BookE where the MMU can not be simply
switched off. The code borrows the initial MMU-setup code to create the
identical mapping mapping. The only difference to the original boot code
is the size of the mapping(s) and the executeable address.
The kexec code maps the first 2 GiB of memory in 256 MiB steps. This
should work also on e500v1 boxes.
SMP support is still not available.

(Kumar: Added minor change to build to ifdef CONFIG_PPC_STD_MMU_64 some
code that was PPC64 specific)

powerpc/47x: Base ppc476 support

2010-05-05T13:11:10+00:00

This patch adds the base support for the 476 processor.  The code was
primarily written by Ben Herrenschmidt and Torez Smith, but I've been
maintaining it for a while.

The goal is to have a single binary that will run on 44x and 47x, but
we still have some details to work out.  The biggest is that the L1 cache
line size differs on the two platforms, but it's currently a compile-time
option.

powerpc/8xx: Start using dcbX instructions in various copy routines

Now that 8xx can fixup dcbX instructions, start using them
where possible like every other PowerPc arch do.

powerpc: Fix __flush_icache_range on 44x

2009-08-27T03:12:52+00:00

The ptrace POKETEXT interface allows a process to modify the text pages of
a child process being ptraced, usually to insert breakpoints via trap
instructions.  The kernel eventually calls copy_to_user_page, which in turn
calls __flush_icache_range to invalidate the icache lines for the child
process.

However, this function does not work on 44x due to the icache being virtually
indexed.  This was noticed by a breakpoint being triggered after it had been
cleared by ltrace on a 440EPx board.  The convenient solution is to do a
flash invalidate of the icache in the __flush_icache_range function.

powerpc/44x: Support 16K/64K base page sizes on 44x

2008-12-28T22:53:25+00:00

This adds support for 16k and 64k page sizes on PowerPC 44x processors.

The PGDIR table is much smaller than a page when using 16k or 64k
pages (512 and 32 bytes respectively) so we allocate the PGDIR with
kzalloc() instead of __get_free_pages().

One PTE table covers rather a large memory area when using 16k or 64k
pages (32MB or 512MB respectively), so we can easily put FIXMAP and
PKMAP in the area covered by one PTE table.
