2014-07-22powerpc: use _GLOBAL_TOC for memmoveLi Zhong
memmove may be called from module code copy_pages(btrfs), and it may call memcpy, which may call back to C code, so it needs to use _GLOBAL_TOC to set up r2 correctly. This fixes following error when I tried to boot an le guest: Vector: 300 (Data Access) at [c000000073f97210] pc: c000000000015004: enable_kernel_altivec+0x24/0x80 lr: c000000000058fbc: enter_vmx_copy+0x3c/0x60 sp: c000000073f97490 msr: 8000000002009033 dar: d000000001d50170 dsisr: 40000000 current = 0xc0000000734c0000 paca = 0xc00000000fff0000 softe: 0 irq_happened: 0x01 pid = 815, comm = mktemp enter ? for help [c000000073f974f0] c000000000058fbc enter_vmx_copy+0x3c/0x60 [c000000073f97510] c000000000057d34 memcpy_power7+0x274/0x840 [c000000073f97610] d000000001c3179c copy_pages+0xfc/0x110 [btrfs] [c000000073f97660] d000000001c3c248 memcpy_extent_buffer+0xe8/0x160 [btrfs] [c000000073f97700] d000000001be4be8 setup_items_for_insert+0x208/0x4a0 [btrfs] [c000000073f97820] d000000001be50b4 btrfs_insert_empty_items+0xf4/0x140 [btrfs] [c000000073f97890] d000000001bfed30 insert_with_overflow+0x70/0x180 [btrfs] [c000000073f97900] d000000001bff174 btrfs_insert_dir_item+0x114/0x2f0 [btrfs] [c000000073f979a0] d000000001c1f92c btrfs_add_link+0x10c/0x370 [btrfs] [c000000073f97a40] d000000001c20e94 btrfs_create+0x204/0x270 [btrfs] [c000000073f97b00] c00000000026d438 vfs_create+0x178/0x210 [c000000073f97b50] c000000000270a70 do_last+0x9f0/0xe90 [c000000073f97c20] c000000000271010 path_openat+0x100/0x810 [c000000073f97ce0] c000000000272ea8 do_filp_open+0x58/0xd0 [c000000073f97dc0] c00000000025ade8 do_sys_open+0x1b8/0x300 [c000000073f97e30] c00000000000a008 syscall_exit+0x0/0x7c Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>
2014-04-23powerpc: No need to use dot symbols when branching to a functionAnton Blanchard
binutils is smart enough to know that a branch to a function descriptor is actually a branch to the functions text address. Alan tells me that binutils has been doing this for 9 years. Signed-off-by: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org>
2012-04-30powerpc: Remove CONFIG_POWER4_ONLYAnton Blanchard
Remove CONFIG_POWER4_ONLY, the option is badly named and only does two things: - It wraps the MMU segment table code. With feature fixups there is little downside to compiling this in. - It uses the newer mtocrf instruction in various assembly functions. Instead of making this a compile option just do it at runtime via a feature fixup. Signed-off-by: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org> Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>
2007-04-13[POWERPC] Use mtocrf instruction in asm when CONFIG_POWER4_ONLY=yOlof Johansson
mtocrf is a faster single-field mtcrf (move to condition register fields) instruction available in POWER4 and later processors. It can make quite a difference in performance on some implementations, so use it for CONFIG_POWER4_ONLY builds.

2005-10-10powerpc: Rename files to have consistent _32/_64 suffixesPaul Mackerras
This doesn't change any code, just renames things so we consistently have foo_32.c and foo_64.c where we have separate 32- and 64-bit versions. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
