Benjamin Herrenschmidt 014da7ff47 [POWERPC] Cell "Spider" MMIO workarounds
This patch implements a workaround for a Spider PCI host bridge bug
where it doesn't enforce some of the PCI ordering rules unless some
manual manipulation of a special register is done. In order to be
fully compliant with the PCI spec, I do this on every MMIO read
operation.

Christian Krafft b3d7dc1967 [POWERPC] cell: add temperature to SPU and CPU sysfs entries
This patch adds a module that registers sysfs attributes to CPU and SPU
containing the temperature of the CBE.

They can be found under
/sys/devices/system/spu/cpuX/thermal/temperature[0|1]
/sys/devices/system/spu/spuX/thermal/temperature

The temperature is read from the on-chip temperature sensors.

Geoff Levand c01ea72a3b [POWERPC] spufs: split the Cell BE support into generic and platform dependant parts
Creates new config variables PPC_CELL_NATIVE and PPC_IBM_CELL_BLADE.
The existing CONFIG_PPC_CELL is now used to denote the generic
Cell processor support.

PPC_CELL = make descends into platforms/cell
PPC_CELL_NATIVE = add bare metal support
PPC_IBM_CELL_BLADE = add blade device drivers, etc.

Also renames spu_priv1.c to spu_priv1_mmio.c.

arnd@arndb.de 91edfa49b9 [POWERPC] cell: always build spu base into the kernel
The spu_base module is rather deeply intermixed with the
core kernel, so it makes sense to have that built-in.
This will let us extend the base in the future without
having to export more core symbols just for it.

Benjamin Herrenschmidt acf7d76827 [POWERPC] cell: add RAS support
This is a first version of support for the Cell BE "Reliability,
Availability and Serviceability" features.

It doesn't yet handle some of the RAS interrupts (the ones described in
iic_is/iic_irr), I'm still working on a proper way to expose these. They
are essentially a cascaded controller by themselves (sic !) though I may
just handle them locally to the iic driver. I need also to sync with
David Erb on the way he hooked in the performance monitor interrupt.

So that's all for 2.6.17 and I'll do more work on that with my rework of
the powerpc interrupt layer that I'm hacking on at the moment.

Arnd Bergmann 2dd14934c9 [PATCH] spufs: allow SPU code to do syscalls
An SPU does not have a way to implement system calls
itself, but it can create intercepts to the kernel.

This patch uses the method defined by the JSRE interface
for C99 host library calls from an SPU to implement
Linux system calls. It uses the reserved SPU stop code
0x2104 for this, using the structure layout and syscall
numbers for ppc64-linux.

I'm still undecided wether it is better to have a list
of allowed syscalls or a list of forbidden syscalls,
since we can't allow an SPU to call all syscalls that
are defined for ppc64-linux.

This patch implements the easier choice of them, with a
blacklist that only prevents an SPU from calling anything
that interacts with its own execution, e.g fork, execve,
clone, vfork, exit, spu_run and spu_create and everything
that deals with signals.

Geoff Levand aee9f26542 [PATCH] powerpc: Fix spufs initialization sequence.
This is a small fix to get the spufs init sequence right.

init_spu_base() in spu_base.c should be called (via
module_init(init_spu_base)) before spufs_init() (via
module_init(spufs_init)) in spufs/inode.c gets called.

Arnd Bergmann f0831acc4b [PATCH] spufs: abstract priv1 register access.
In a hypervisor based setup, direct access to the first
priviledged register space can typically not be allowed
to the kernel and has to be implemented through hypervisor
calls.

As suggested by Masato Noguchi, let's abstract the register
access trough a number of function calls. Since there is
currently no public specification of actual hypervisor
calls to implement this, I only provide a place that
makes it easier to hook into.

Arnd Bergmann 67207b9664 [PATCH] spufs: The SPU file system, base
This is the current version of the spu file system, used
for driving SPEs on the Cell Broadband Engine.

This release is almost identical to the version for the
2.6.14 kernel posted earlier, which is available as part
of the Cell BE Linux distribution from
http://www.bsc.es/projects/deepcomputing/linuxoncell/.

The first patch provides all the interfaces for running
spu application, but does not have any support for
debugging SPU tasks or for scheduling. Both these
functionalities are added in the subsequent patches.

See Documentation/filesystems/spufs.txt on how to use
spufs.
