Olof Johansson e63f8f439d [PATCH] ppc64: no prefetch for NULL pointers
For prefetches of NULL (as when walking a short linked list), PPC64 will in
some cases take a performance hit.  The hardware needs to do the TLB walk,
and said walk will always miss, which means (up to) two L2 misses as
penalty.  This seems to hurt overall performance, so for NULL pointers skip
the prefetch alltogether.

Anton Blanchard 89e09f5ebb [PATCH] ppc64: remove -fno-omit-frame-pointer
During some code inspection using gcc 4.0 I noticed a stack frame was being
created for a number of functions that didnt require it.  For example:

c0000000000df944 <._spin_unlock>:
c0000000000df944:       fb e1 ff f0     std     r31,-16(r1)
c0000000000df948:       f8 21 ff c1     stdu    r1,-64(r1)
c0000000000df94c:       7c 3f 0b 78     mr      r31,r1
c0000000000df950:       7c 20 04 ac     lwsync
c0000000000df954:       e8 21 00 00     ld      r1,0(r1)
c0000000000df958:       38 00 00 00     li      r0,0
c0000000000df95c:       90 03 00 00     stw     r0,0(r3)
c0000000000df960:       eb e1 ff f0     ld      r31,-16(r1)
c0000000000df964:       4e 80 00 20     blr

It turns out we are adding -fno-omit-frame-pointer to ppc64 which is
causing the above behaviour.  Removing that flag results in much better
code:

c0000000000d5b30 <._spin_unlock>:
c0000000000d5b30:       7c 20 04 ac     lwsync
c0000000000d5b34:       38 00 00 00     li      r0,0
c0000000000d5b38:       90 03 00 00     stw     r0,0(r3)
c0000000000d5b3c:       4e 80 00 20     blr

We dont require a frame pointer to debug on ppc64, so remove it.

Benjamin Herrenschmidt 187335a4ec [PATCH] ppc64: Detect altivec via firmware on unknown CPUs
This patch adds detection of the Altivec capability of the CPU via the
firmware in addition to the cpu table.  This allows newer CPUs that aren't
in the table to still have working altivec support in the kernel.

It also fixes a problem where if a CPU isn't recognized as having altivec
features, and takes an altivec unavailable exception due to userland
issuing altivec instructions, the kernel would happily enable it and
context switch the registers ...  but not all of them (it would basically
forget vrsave).  With this patch, the kernel will refuse to enable altivec
when the feature isn't detected for the CPU (SIGILL).

Benjamin Herrenschmidt 547ee84cea [PATCH] ppc64: Improve mapping of vDSO
This patch reworks the way the ppc64 is mapped in user memory by the kernel
to make it more robust against possible collisions with executable
segments.  Instead of just whacking a VMA at 1Mb, I now use
get_unmapped_area() with a hint, and I moved the mapping of the vDSO to
after the mapping of the various ELF segments and of the interpreter, so
that conflicts get caught properly (it still has to be before
create_elf_tables since the later will fill the AT_SYSINFO_EHDR with the
proper address).

While I was at it, I also changed the 32 and 64 bits vDSO's to link at
their "natural" address of 1Mb instead of 0.  This is the address where
they are normally mapped in absence of conflict.  By doing so, it should be
possible to properly prelink one it's been verified to work on glibc.

This patch fixes ppc64 __ioremap() so that it stops adding implicitely
_PAGE_GUARDED when the cache is not writeback, and instead, let the callers
provide the flag they want here.  This allows things like framebuffers to

efficient for that type of memory without side effects.  The patch also
fixes all current callers to add _PAGE_GUARDED except btext, which is fine
without it.

Benjamin Herrenschmidt 7bbd827750 [PATCH] ppc64: very basic desktop g5 sound support
This patch hacks the current PowerMac Alsa driver to add some basic support
of analog sound output to some desktop G5s.  It has severe limitations
though:

 - Only 44100Khz 16 bits
 - Only work on G5 models using a TAS3004 analog code, that is early
   single CPU desktops and all dual CPU desktops at this date, but none
   of the more recent ones like iMac G5.
 - It does analog only, no digital/SPDIF support at all, no native
   AC3 support

Better support would require a complete rewrite of the driver (which I am
working on, but don't hold your breath), to properly support the diversity
of apple sound HW setup, including dual codecs, several i2s busses, all the
new codecs used in the new machines, proper clock switching with digital,
etc etc etc...

This patch applies on top of the other PowerMac sound patches I posted in
the past couple of days (new powerbook support and sleep fixes).  

Note: This is a FAQ entry for PowerMac sound support with TI codecs: They
have a feature called "DRC" which is automatically enabled for the internal
speaker (at least when auto mute control is enabled) which will cause your
sound to fade out to nothing after half a second of playback if you don't
set a proper "DRC Range" in the mixer.  So if you have a problem like that,
check alsamixer and raise your DRC Range to something reasonable.

Note2: This patch will also add auto-mute of the speaker when line-out jack
is used on some earlier desktop G4s (and on the G5) in addition to the
headphone jack.  If that behaviour isn't what you want, just disable
auto-muting and use the manual mute controls in alsamixer.

The following problem was found by Giovambattista Pulcini
<gpulcini@swintel.it>, who also provided a partial patch, and this has been
verified by our time guru Gabriel Paubert <paubert@iram.es>.

The problem is that in do_settimeofday() we always set time_state to
TIME_ERROR and except on two platforms, never re-set it.  This meant that
ntp_gettime() and ntp_adjtime() always returned TIME_ERROR, incorrectly. 
Based on Gabriel's analysis, time_state is used for leap-second processing,
and ppc shouldn't be mucking with it.

Kumar Gala f50b153b19 [PATCH] ppc32: Support 36-bit physical addressing on e500
To add support for 36-bit physical addressing on e500 the following changes
have been made.  The changes are generalized to support any physical address
size larger than 32-bits:

* Allow FSL Book-E parts to use a 64-bit PTE, it is 44-bits of pfn, 20-bits
  of flags.

* Introduced new CPU feature (CPU_FTR_BIG_PHYS) to allow runtime handling of
  updating hardware register (SPRN_MAS7) which holds the upper 32-bits of
  physical address that will be written into the TLB.  This is useful since
  not all e500 cores support 36-bit physical addressing.

* Currently have a pass through implementation of fixup_bigphys_addr

* Moved _PAGE_DIRTY in the 64-bit PTE case to free room for three additional
  storage attributes that may exist in future FSL Book-E cores and updated
  fault handler to copy these bits into the hardware TLBs.

Kumar Gala 7a1e335085 [PATCH] ppc32: Fix pte_update for 64-bit PTEs
While the existing pte_update code handled atomically modifying a 64-bit PTE,
it did not return all 64-bits of the PTE before it was modified.  This causes
problems in some places that expect the full PTE to be returned, like
ptep_get_and_clear().

Created a new pte_update function that is conditional on CONFIG_PTE_64BIT.  It
atomically reads the low PTE word which all PTE flags are required to be in
and returns a premodified full 64-bit PTE.

Since we now have an explicit 64-bit PTE version of pte_update we can also
remove the hack that existed to get the low PTE word regardless of size.

Benjamin Herrenschmidt 0c541b4406 [PATCH] ppc32: Fix AGP and sleep again
My previous patch that added sleep support for uninorth-agp and some AGP
"off" stuff in radeonfb and aty128fb is breaking some configs.  More
specifically, it has problems with rage128 setups since the DRI code for
these in X doesn't properly re-enable AGP on wakeup or console switch
(unlike the radeon DRM).

This patch fixes the problem for pmac once for all by using a different
approach.  The AGP driver "registers" special suspend/resume callbacks with
some arch code that the fbdev's can later on call to suspend and resume
AGP, making sure it's resumed back in the same state it was when suspended.
 This is platform specific for now.  It would be too complicated to try to
do a generic implementation of this at this point due to all sort of weird
things going on with AGP on other architectures.  We'll re-work that whole
problem cleanly once we finally merge fbdev's and DRI.

In the meantime, please apply this patch which brings back some r128 based
laptops into working condition as far as system sleep is concerned.

Paul Mackerras 6c26e03b2d [PATCH] ppc32: fix single-stepping of emulated instructions
On ppc, we emulate instructions that cause alignment exceptions.  If we are
single-stepping an instruction and it causes an alignment exception, we
will currently do the next instruction as well before taking the
single-step exception.  This patch fixes that, so we take the single-step
exception after emulating the instruction.

Paul Mackerras e378cc16b0 [PATCH] ppc32: oops on kernel altivec assist exceptions
If we should happen to get an altivec assist exception while executing in
the kernel, we will currently try to handle it and fail, and end up oopsing
with (apparently) a segfault.  (An altivec assist exception occurs for
floating-point altivec instructions with denormalized inputs or outputs if
the altivec unit is in java mode.)

This patch checks explicitly if we are in user mode and prints a useful
message if not.

Paul Mackerras 6460b4cceb [PATCH] ppc32: improve timebase sync for SMP
Currently the procedure in the ppc32 kernel that synchronizes the timebase
registers across an SMP powermac system does so by setting both timebases
to zero.  That is OK at boot but causes problems if done later.  So that we
can do hotplug CPU on these machines, this patch changes the code so it
reads the timebase from one CPU and transfers the value to the other CPU. 
(Hotplug CPU is needed for sleep (aka suspend to RAM) to work.)

Eugene Surovegin 35b535d9cc [PATCH] ppc32: ppc4xx_pic - add acknowledge when enabling level-sensitive IRQ
This patch adds interrupt acknowledge to the PPC4xx PIC enable_irq
implementation for level-sensitive IRQ sources.  This helps in cases when
enable/disable_irq is used in interrupt handlers for hardware, which
requires IRQ acknowledge to be issued from non-interrupt context (e.g. 
when actual ACK in device needs an I2C transaction).  For such strange
hardware, interrupt handler disables IRQ and defers actual ACK to some
other context.  When this happens, IRQ is enabled again.  For
level-sensitive sources we get spurious triggering right after IRQ is
enabled.  This patch fixes this.

Suggested by Tolunay Orkun <listmember@orkun.us>.

Paul Mackerras 16acbc624e [PATCH] ppc32: fix bogosity in process-freezing code
The code that went into arch/ppc/kernel/signal.c recently to handle process
freezing seems to contain a dubious assumption: that a process that calls
do_signal when PF_FREEZE is set will have entered the kernel because of a
system call.  This patch removes that assumption.

James Morris 0c9b79429c [PATCH] SELinux: add support for NETLINK_KOBJECT_UEVENT
This patch adds SELinux support for the KOBJECT_UEVENT Netlink family, so
that SELinux can apply finer grained controls to it.  For example, security
policy for hald can be locked down to the KOBJECT_UEVENT Netlink family
only.  Currently, this family simply defaults to the default Netlink socket
class.

Note that some new permission definitions are added to sync with changes in
the core userspace policy package, which auto-generates header files.

We will return NULL from filemap_getpage when a page does not exist in the
page cache and MAP_NONBLOCK is specified, here:

	page = find_get_page(mapping, pgoff);
	if (!page) {
		if (nonblock)
			return NULL;
		goto no_cached_page;
	}

But we forget to do so when the page in the cache is not uptodate.  The
following could result in a blocking call:

	/*
	 * Ok, found a page in the page cache, now we need to check
	 * that it's up-to-date.
	 */
	if (!PageUptodate(page))
		goto page_not_uptodate;
