powerpc: fix typo 'CONFIG_PMAC'

2014-07-17T11:43:19+00:00

commit 6e0fdf9af216887e0032c19d276889aad41cad00 upstream.

Commit b0d278b7d3ae ("powerpc/perf_event: Reduce latency of calling
perf_event_do_pending") added a check for CONFIG_PMAC were a check for
CONFIG_PPC_PMAC was clearly intended.

powerpc/pseries: Duplicate dtl entries sometimes sent to userspace

2013-11-29T19:28:08+00:00

commit 84b073868b9d9e754ae48b828337633d1b386482 upstream.

When reading from the dispatch trace log (dtl) userspace interface, I
sometimes see duplicate entries. One example:

# hexdump -C dtl.out

00000000  07 04 00 0c 00 00 48 44  00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00
00000010  00 0c a0 b4 16 83 6d 68  00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00
00000020  00 00 00 00 10 00 13 50  80 00 00 00 00 00 d0 32

00000030  07 04 00 0c 00 00 48 44  00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00
00000040  00 0c a0 b4 16 83 6d 68  00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00
00000050  00 00 00 00 10 00 13 50  80 00 00 00 00 00 d0 32

The problem is in scan_dispatch_log() where we call dtl_consumer()
but bail out before incrementing the index.

To fix this I moved dtl_consumer() after the timebase comparison.

Merge branch 'next' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/benh/powerpc

2013-09-06T17:49:42+00:00

Pull powerpc updates from Ben Herrenschmidt:
 "Here's the powerpc batch for this merge window.  Some of the
  highlights are:

   - A bunch of endian fixes ! We don't have full LE support yet in that
     release but this contains a lot of fixes all over arch/powerpc to
     use the proper accessors, call the firmware with the right endian
     mode, etc...

   - A few updates to our "powernv" platform (non-virtualized, the one
     to run KVM on), among other, support for bridging the P8 LPC bus
     for UARTs, support and some EEH fixes.

   - Some mpc51xx clock API cleanups in preparation for a clock API
     overhaul

   - A pile of cleanups of our old math emulation code, including better
     support for using it to emulate optional FP instructions on
     embedded chips that otherwise have a HW FPU.

   - Some infrastructure in selftest, for powerpc now, but could be
     generalized, initially used by some tests for our perf instruction
     counting code.

   - A pile of fixes for hotplug on pseries (that was seriously
     bitrotting)

   - The usual slew of freescale embedded updates, new boards, 64-bit
     hiberation support, e6500 core PMU support, etc..."

powerpc: Fix little endian lppaca, slb_shadow and dtl_entry

2013-08-14T05:33:35+00:00

The lppaca, slb_shadow and dtl_entry hypervisor structures are
big endian, so we have to byte swap them in little endian builds.

LE KVM hosts will also need to be fixed but for now add an #error
to remind us.

powerpc: Delete __cpuinit usage from all users

2013-07-01T01:10:36+00:00

The __cpuinit type of throwaway sections might have made sense
some time ago when RAM was more constrained, but now the savings
do not offset the cost and complications.  For example, the fix in
commit 5e427ec2d0 ("x86: Fix bit corruption at CPU resume time")
is a good example of the nasty type of bugs that can be created
with improper use of the various __init prefixes.

After a discussion on LKML[1] it was decided that cpuinit should go
the way of devinit and be phased out.  Once all the users are gone,
we can then finally remove the macros themselves from linux/init.h.

This removes all the powerpc uses of the __cpuinit macros.  There
are no __CPUINIT users in assembly files in powerpc.

Pull timer changes from Ingo Molnar:
 "Main changes:

   - ntp: Add CONFIG_RTC_SYSTOHC: a generic RTC driver facility
     complementing the existing CONFIG_RTC_HCTOSYS, which uses NTP to
     keep the hardware clock updated.

   - posix-timers: Fix clock_adjtime to always return timex data on
     success.  This is changing the ABI, but no breakage was expected
     and found - caution is warranted nevertheless.

   - platform persistent clock improvements/cleanups.

   - clockevents: refactor timer broadcast handling to be more generic
     and less duplicated with matching architecture code (mostly ARM
     motivated.)

   - various fixes and cleanups"
