sparc: Resolve conflict between sparc v9 and M7 on usage of bit 9 of TTE

Bit 9 of TTE is CV (Cacheable in V-cache) on sparc v9 processor while
the same bit 9 is MCDE (Memory Corruption Detection Enable) on M7
processor. This creates a conflicting usage of the same bit. Kernel
sets TTE.cv bit on all pages for sun4v architecture which works well
for sparc v9 but enables memory corruption detection on M7 processor
which is not the intent. This patch adds code to determine if kernel
is running on M7 processor and takes steps to not enable memory
corruption detection in TTE erroneously.

sparc64: pci slots information is not populated in sysfs

2015-06-01T05:14:40+00:00

Add PCI slot numbers within sysfs for PCIe hardware.  Larger
PCIe systems with nested PCI bridges and slots further
down on these bridges were not being populated within sysfs.
This will add ACPI style PCI slot numbers for these systems
since the OF 'slot-names' information is not available on
all PCIe platforms.

sparc: kernel: GRPCI2: Remove a useless memset

2015-06-01T05:14:05+00:00

grpci2priv is allocated using kzalloc, so there is no need to memset it.

sparc64: Setup sysfs to mark LDOM sockets, cores and threads correctly

    sparc64: Setup sysfs to mark LDOM sockets, cores and threads correctly

    The current sparc kernel has no representation for sockets though tools
    like lscpu can pull this from sysfs. This patch walks the machine
    description cache and socket hierarchy and marks sockets as well as cores
    and threads such that a representative sysfs is created by
    drivers/base/topology.c.

    Before this patch:
        $ lscpu
        Architecture:          sparc64
        CPU op-mode(s):        32-bit, 64-bit

        Thread(s) per core:    8
        Core(s) per socket:    1     <--- wrong
        Socket(s):             128   <--- wrong
        NUMA node(s):          4
        NUMA node0 CPU(s):     0-255
        NUMA node1 CPU(s):     256-511
        NUMA node2 CPU(s):     512-767
        NUMA node3 CPU(s):     768-1023

        After this patch:
        $ lscpu
        Architecture:          sparc64
        CPU op-mode(s):        32-bit, 64-bit
        Byte Order:            Big Endian
        CPU(s):                1024
        On-line CPU(s) list:   0-1023
        Thread(s) per core:    8
        Core(s) per socket:    32
        Socket(s):             4

Pull sparc fixes from David Miller:

 1) ldc_alloc_exp_dring() can be called from softints, so use
    GFP_ATOMIC.  From Sowmini Varadhan.

 2) Some minor warning/build fixups for the new iommu-common code on
    certain archs and with certain debug options enabled.  Also from
    Sowmini Varadhan.

sparc: Use GFP_ATOMIC in ldc_alloc_exp_dring() as it can be called in softirq context

2015-04-21T20:17:06+00:00

Since it is possible for vnet_event_napi to end up doing
vnet_control_pkt_engine -> ... -> vnet_send_attr ->
vnet_port_alloc_tx_ring -> ldc_alloc_exp_dring -> kzalloc()
(i.e., in softirq context), kzalloc() should be called with
GFP_ATOMIC from ldc_alloc_exp_dring.

sparc64: Use M7 PMC write on all chips T4 and onward.

They both work equally well, and the M7 implementation is
simpler and cheaper (less register writes).

With help from David Ahern.

Pull final removal of deprecated cpus_* cpumask functions from Rusty Russell:
 "This is the final removal (after several years!) of the obsolete
  cpus_* functions, prompted by their mis-use in staging.

  With these function removed, all cpu functions should only iterate to
  nr_cpu_ids, so we finally only allocate that many bits when cpumasks
  are allocated offstack"

cpumask: remove __first_cpu / __next_cpu

2015-04-19T05:05:32+00:00

They were for use by the deprecated first_cpu() and next_cpu() wrappers,
but sparc used them directly.

They're now replaced by cpumask_first / cpumask_next.  And __next_cpu_nr
is completely obsolete.

sparc: Make LDC use common iommu poll management functions

2015-04-18T19:32:59+00:00

Note that this conversion is only being done to consolidate the
code and ensure that the common code provides the sufficient
abstraction. It is not expected to result in any noticeable
performance improvement, as there is typically one ldc_iommu
per vnet_port, and each one has 8k entries, with a typical
request for 1-4 pages.  Thus LDC uses npools == 1.
