Because the data field was never filled and a binary sysctl handler was
never written this sysctl has never been usable through the sys_sysctl
interface.  So just remove the binary sysctl number.  Making the kernel
sanity checks happy.

Becky Bruce b64f87c16f [POWERPC] Avoid unpaired stwcx. on some processors
The context switch code in the kernel issues a dummy stwcx. to clear the
reservation, as recommended by the architecture.  However, some processors
can have issues if this stwcx to address A occurs while the reservation
is already held to a different address B.  To avoid this problem, the dummy
stwcx. needs to be paired with a dummy lwarx to the same address.

This adds the dummy lwarx, and creates a cpu feature bit to indicate
which cpus are affected.  Tested on mpc8641_hpcn_defconfig in
arch/powerpc; build tested in arch/ppc.

Benjamin Herrenschmidt b98ac05d5e [POWERPC] 4xx: Deal with 44x virtually tagged icache
The 44x family has an interesting "feature" which is a virtually
tagged instruction cache (yuck !). So far, we haven't dealt with
it properly, which means we've been mostly lucky or people didn't
report the problems, unless people have been running custom patches
in their distro...

This is an attempt at fixing it properly. I chose to do it by
setting a global flag whenever we change a PTE that was previously
marked executable, and flush the entire instruction cache upon
return to user space when that happens.

This is a bit heavy handed, but it's hard to do more fine grained
flushes as the icbi instruction, on those processor, for some very
strange reasons (since the cache is virtually mapped) still requires
a valid TLB entry for reading in the target address space, which
isn't something I want to deal with.

Benjamin Herrenschmidt e701d269aa [POWERPC] 4xx: Fix 4xx flush_tlb_page()
On 4xx CPUs, the current implementation of flush_tlb_page() uses
a low level _tlbie() assembly function that only works for the
current PID. Thus, invalidations caused by, for example, a COW
fault triggered by get_user_pages() from a different context will
not work properly, causing among other things, gdb breakpoints
to fail.

This patch adds a "pid" argument to _tlbie() on 4xx processors,
and uses it to flush entries in the right context. FSL BookE
also gets the argument but it seems they don't need it (their
tlbivax form ignores the PID when invalidating according to the
document I have).

Serge E. Hallyn b460cbc581 pid namespaces: define is_global_init() and is_container_init()
is_init() is an ambiguous name for the pid==1 check.  Split it into
is_global_init() and is_container_init().

A cgroup init has it's tsk->pid == 1.

A global init also has it's tsk->pid == 1 and it's active pid namespace
is the init_pid_ns.  But rather than check the active pid namespace,
compare the task structure with 'init_pid_ns.child_reaper', which is
initialized during boot to the /sbin/init process and never changes.

Changelog:

	2.6.22-rc4-mm2-pidns1:
	- Use 'init_pid_ns.child_reaper' to determine if a given task is the
	  global init (/sbin/init) process. This would improve performance
	  and remove dependence on the task_pid().

	2.6.21-mm2-pidns2:

	- [Sukadev Bhattiprolu] Changed is_container_init() calls in {powerpc,
	  ppc,avr32}/traps.c for the _exception() call to is_global_init().
	  This way, we kill only the cgroup if the cgroup's init has a
	  bug rather than force a kernel panic.

Paul Mackerras 26f571d7c9 [PPC] Use cpu setup routines from cpu_setup_44x.S for ARCH=ppc
Commit 8112753bb2 made 44x in
ARCH=powerpc builds use cpu setup routines in cpu_setup_44x.S,
but didn't make a similar change for ARCH=ppc, and consequently
the ARCH=ppc builds fail with undefined symbols (since both use
the same cputable.c).

This fixes it by including cpu_setup_44x.S in the ARCH=ppc builds,
and by taking out the now-redundant FPU initialization in
arch/ppc/kernel/head_44x.S.

David Gibson aa1cf632bd [POWERPC] Fix small race in 44x tlbie function
The 440 family of processors don't have a tlbie instruction.  So, we
implement TLB invalidates by explicitly searching the TLB with tlbsx.,
then clobbering the relevant entry, if any.  Unfortunately the PID for
the search needs to be stored in the MMUCR register, which is also
used by the TLB miss handler.  Interrupts were enabled in _tlbie(), so
an interrupt between loading the MMUCR and the tlbsx could cause
incorrect search results, and thus a failure to invalide TLB entries
which needed to be invalidated.

This fixes the problem in both arch/ppc and arch/powerpc by inhibiting
interrupts (even critical and debug interrupts) across the relevant
instructions.

Fenghua Yu 5fb7dc37dc define new percpu interface for shared data
per cpu data section contains two types of data.  One set which is
exclusively accessed by the local cpu and the other set which is per cpu,
but also shared by remote cpus.  In the current kernel, these two sets are
not clearely separated out.  This can potentially cause the same data
cacheline shared between the two sets of data, which will result in
unnecessary bouncing of the cacheline between cpus.

One way to fix the problem is to cacheline align the remotely accessed per
cpu data, both at the beginning and at the end.  Because of the padding at
both ends, this will likely cause some memory wastage and also the
interface to achieve this is not clean.

This patch:

Moves the remotely accessed per cpu data (which is currently marked
as ____cacheline_aligned_in_smp) into a different section, where all the data
elements are cacheline aligned. And as such, this differentiates the local
only data and remotely accessed data cleanly.

Heiko Carstens 608e261968 generic bug: use show_regs() instead of dump_stack()
The current generic bug implementation has a call to dump_stack() in case a
WARN_ON(whatever) gets hit.  Since report_bug(), which calls dump_stack(),
gets called from an exception handler we can do better: just pass the
pt_regs structure to report_bug() and pass it to show_regs() in case of a
warning.  This will give more debug informations like register contents,
etc...  In addition this avoids some pointless lines that dump_stack()
emits, since it includes a stack backtrace of the exception handler which
is of no interest in case of a warning.  E.g.  on s390 the following lines
are currently always present in a stack backtrace if dump_stack() gets
called from report_bug():

 [<000000000001517a>] show_trace+0x92/0xe8)

David Gibson 4508dc21fe [POWERPC] Merge CPU features pertaining to icache coherency
Currently the powerpc kernel has a 64-bit only feature,
COHERENT_ICACHE used for those CPUS which maintain icache/dcache
coherency in hardware (POWER5, essentially).  It also has a feature,
SPLIT_ID_CACHE, which is used on CPUs which have separate i and
d-caches, which is to say everything except 601 and Freescale E200.

In nearly all the places we check the SPLIT_ID_CACHE, what we actually
care about is whether the i and d-caches are coherent (which they will
be, trivially, if they're the same cache).

This tries to clarify the situation a little.  The COHERENT_ICACHE
feature becomes availble on 32-bit and is set for all CPUs where i and
d-cache are effectively coherent, whether this is due to special logic
(POWER5) or because they're unified.  We check this, instead of
SPLIT_ID_CACHE nearly everywhere.

The SPLIT_ID_CACHE feature itself is replaced by a UNIFIED_ID_CACHE
feature with reversed sense, set only on 601 and Freescale E200.  In
the two places (one Freescale BookE specific) where we really care
whether it's a unified cache, not whether they're coherent, we check
this feature.  The CPUs with unified cache are so few, we could
consider replacing this feature bit with explicit checks against the
PVR.

This will make unifying the 32-bit and 64-bit cache flush code a
little more straightforward.

Eric W. Biederman 0b4d414714 [PATCH] sysctl: remove insert_at_head from register_sysctl
The semantic effect of insert_at_head is that it would allow new registered
sysctl entries to override existing sysctl entries of the same name.  Which is
pain for caching and the proc interface never implemented.

I have done an audit and discovered that none of the current users of
register_sysctl care as (excpet for directories) they do not register
duplicate sysctl entries.

So this patch simply removes the support for overriding existing entries in
the sys_sysctl interface since no one uses it or cares and it makes future
enhancments harder.

Some of the current tlbwe instructions early on in head_fsl_booke.S take
advantage of unarchitected behavior that allows the writing of reserved

Correct this for both arch/ppc and arch/powerpc.

Benjamin Herrenschmidt 396a1a5832 [POWERPC] Fix mmap of PCI resource with hack for X
The powerpc version of pci_resource_to_user() and associated hooks
used by /proc/bus/pci and /sys/bus/pci mmap have been broken for some
time on machines that don't have a 1:1 mapping of devices (basically
on non-PowerMacs) and have PCI devices above 32 bits.

This attempts to fix it as well as possible.

The rule is supposed to be that pci_resource_to_user() always converts
the resources back into a BAR values since that's what the /proc
interface was supposed to deal with. However, for X to work on
platforms where PCI MMIO is not mapped 1:1, it became a habit of
platforms like powerpc to pass "fixed up" values there since X expects
to be able to use values from /proc/bus/pci/devices as offsets to mmap
of /dev/mem...

So we keep that contraption here, causing also /sys/*/resource to
expose fully absolute MMIO addresses instead of BAR values, which is
ugly, but should still work as long as those are only used to calculate
alignment within a page.

X is still broken when built 32 bits on machines where PCI MMIO can be
above 32-bit space unfortunately.

Paul Mackerras 974a76f513 [POWERPC] Distinguish POWER6 partition modes and tell userspace
This adds code to look at the properties firmware puts in the device
tree to determine what compatibility mode the partition is in on
POWER6 machines, and set the ELF aux vector AT_HWCAP and AT_PLATFORM
entries appropriately.

Specifically, we look at the cpu-version property in the cpu node(s).
If that contains a "logical" PVR value (of the form 0x0f00000x), we
call identify_cpu again with this PVR value.  A value of 0x0f000001
indicates the partition is in POWER5+ compatibility mode, and a value
of 0x0f000002 indicates "POWER6 architected" mode, with various
extensions disabled.  We also look for various other properties:
ibm,dfp, ibm,purr and ibm,spurr.
