* powerpc: Enforce sane MAX_ORDERJohannes Berg2008-10-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | powerpc uses CONFIG_FORCE_MAX_ZONEORDER, and some things depend on it being at least 10 when 64k pages are not configured (notably the dart iommu code with CONFIG_PM). The defaults are fine, but when going from a 64K pages config to one without 64K pages, MAX_ORDER stays at 9 which is too low for 4K pages. This patch makes the Kconfig enforce at least the defaults.

* powerpc: Make the 64-bit kernel as a position-independent executablePaul Mackerras2008-09-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This implements CONFIG_RELOCATABLE for 64-bit by making the kernel as a position-independent executable (PIE) when it is set. This involves processing the dynamic relocations in the image in the early stages of booting, even if the kernel is being run at the address it is linked at, since the linker does not necessarily fill in words in the image for which there are dynamic relocations. (In fact the linker does fill in such words for 64-bit executables, though not for 32-bit executables, so in principle we could avoid calling relocate() entirely when we're running a 64-bit kernel at the linked address.) The dynamic relocations are processed by a new function relocate(addr), where the addr parameter is the virtual address where the image will be run. In fact we call it twice; once before calling prom_init, and again when starting the main kernel. This means that reloc_offset() returns 0 in prom_init (since it has been relocated to the address it is running at), which necessitated a few adjustments. This also changes __va and __pa to use an equivalent definition that is simpler. With the relocatable kernel, PAGE_OFFSET and MEMORY_START are constants (for 64-bit) whereas PHYSICAL_START is a variable (and KERNELBASE ideally should be too, but isn't yet). With this, relocatable kernels still copy themselves down to physical address 0 and run there. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

* gpiolib: allow user-selectionMichael Buesch2008-07-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds functionality to the gpio-lib subsystem to make it possible to enable the gpio-lib code even if the architecture code didn't request to get it built in. The archtitecture code does still need to implement the gpiolib accessor functions in its asm/gpio.h file. This patch adds the implementations for x86 and PPC. With these changes it is possible to run generic GPIO expansion cards on every architecture that implements the trivial wrapper functions. Support for more architectures can easily be added.

* introduce HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS Kconfig symbolJohannes Berg2008-07-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In many cases, especially in networking, it can be beneficial to know at compile time whether the architecture can do unaligned accesses efficiently. This patch introduces a new Kconfig symbol HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS for that purpose and adds it to the powerpc and x86 architectures. Also add some documentation about alignment and networking, and especially one intended use of this symbol.

* powerpc ioremap_protBenjamin Herrenschmidt2008-07-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This adds ioremap_prot and pte_pgprot() so that one can extract protection bits from a PTE and use them to ioremap_prot() (in order to support ptrace of VM_IO | VM_PFNMAP as per Rik's patch). This moves a couple of flag checks around in the ioremap implementations of arch/powerpc. There's a side effect of allowing non-cacheable and non-guarded mappings on ppc32 which before would always have _PAGE_GUARDED set whenever _PAGE_NO_CACHE is. (standard ioremap will still set _PAGE_GUARDED, but ioremap_prot will be capable of setting such a non guarded mapping).

* kgdb, powerpc: arch specific powerpc kgdb supportJason Wessel2008-07-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch removes the old kgdb reminants from ARCH=powerpc and implements the new style arch specific stub for the common kgdb core interface. It is possible to have xmon and kgdb in the same kernel, but you cannot use both at the same time because there is only one set of debug hooks. The arch specific kgdb implementation saves the previous state of the debug hooks and restores them if you unconfigure the kgdb I/O driver. Kgdb should have no impact on a kernel that has no kgdb I/O driver configured. Signed-off-by: Jason Wessel <jason.wessel@windriver.com>
* powerpc: pci config cleanupJohn Rigby2008-07-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Choosing PCI or not at config time is allowed on some platforms via an if expression in arch/powerpc/Kconfig. To add a new platform with PCI support selectable at config time, you must change the if expression. This patch makes this easier by changing: bool "PCI support" if <long expression> to bool "PCI support" if PPC_PCI_CHOICE and adding select PPC_PCI_CHOICE to all the config nodes that were previously in the PCI if expression. Platforms with unconditional PCI support continue to just select PCI in their config nodes.

* [POWERPC] Port fixmap from x86 and use for kmap_atomicKumar Gala2008-04-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The fixmap code from x86 allows us to have compile time virtual addresses that we change the physical addresses of at run time. This is useful for applications like kmap_atomic, PCI config that is done via direct memory map, kexec/kdump. We got ride of CONFIG_HIGHMEM_START as we can now determine a more optimal location for PKMAP_BASE based on where the fixmap addresses start and working back from there. Additionally, the kmap code in asm-powerpc/highmem.h always had debug enabled. Moved to using CONFIG_DEBUG_HIGHMEM to determine if we should have the extra debug checking.

* [POWERPC] 85xx: Add support for relocatable kernel (and booting at non-zero)Kumar Gala2008-04-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Added support to allow an 85xx kernel to be run from a non-zero physical address (useful for cooperative asymmetric multiprocessing situations and kdump). The support can be configured at compile time by setting CONFIG_PAGE_OFFSET, CONFIG_KERNEL_START, and CONFIG_PHYSICAL_START as desired. Alternatively, the kernel build can set CONFIG_RELOCATABLE. Setting this config option causes the kernel to determine at runtime the physical addresses of CONFIG_PAGE_OFFSET and CONFIG_KERNEL_START. If CONFIG_RELOCATABLE is set, then CONFIG_PHYSICAL_START has no meaning. However, CONFIG_PHYSICAL_START will always be used to set the LOAD program header physical address field in the resulting ELF image. Currently we are limited to running at a physical address that is a multiple of 256M. This is due to how we map TLBs to cover lowmem. This should be fixed to allow 64M or maybe even 16M alignment in the future. It is considered an error to try and run a kernel at a non-aligned physical address. All the magic for this support is accomplished by proper initialization of the kernel memory subsystem and use of ARCH_PFN_OFFSET. The use of ARCH_PFN_OFFSET only affects normal memory and not IO mappings. ioremap uses map_page and isn't affected by ARCH_PFN_OFFSET. /dev/mem continues to allow access to any physical address in the system regardless of how CONFIG_PHYSICAL_START is set.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | walk_memory_resource() verifies if there are holes in a given memory range, by checking against /proc/iomem. On x86/ia64 system memory is represented in /proc/iomem. On powerpc, we don't show system memory as IO resource in /proc/iomem - instead it's maintained in /proc/device-tree. This provides a way for an architecture to provide its own walk_memory_resource() function. On powerpc, the memory region is small (16MB), contiguous and non-overlapping. So extra checking against the device-tree is not needed.

* [POWERPC] Switch to generic compat_binfmt_elf codeRoland McGrath2008-02-07
| | | | | | | | | | | This switches the CONFIG_PPC64 support for 32-bit ELF to use the generic fs/compat_binfmt_elf.c implementation instead of our own binfmt_elf32.c. Since so much is the same between 32/64, there is only one macro we have to define to make the generic support work out of the box.

* [POWERPC] bootwrapper: Build multiple cuImagesGrant Likely2008-02-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, the kernel uses CONFIG_DEVICE_TREE to wrap a kernel image with a fdt blob which means for any given configuration only one dts file can be selected and so support for only one board can be built This moves the selection of the default .dts file out of the kernel config and into the bootwrapper makefile. The makefile chooses which images to build based on the kernel config and the dts source file name is taken directly from the image name. For example "cuImage.ebony" will use "ebony.dts" as the device tree source file. In addition, this patch allows a specific image to be requested from the command line by adding "cuImage.%" and "treeImage.%" targets to the list of valid built targets in arch/powerpc/Makefile. This allows the default dts selection to be overridden. Another advantage to this change is it allows a single defconfig to be supplied for all boards using the same chip family and only differing in the device tree. Important note: This patch adds two new zImage targets; zImage.dtb.% and zImage.dtb.initrd.% for zImages with embedded dtb files. Currently there are 5 platforms which require this: ps3, ep405, mpc885ads, ep88xc, adder875-redboot and ep8248e. This patch *changes the zImage filenames* for those platforms. ie. 'zImage.ps3' is now 'zImage.dtb.ps3'. This new zImage.dtb targets were added so that the .dts file could be part of the dependancies list for building them.
