On Book3S KVM we directly expose some asm pointers to C code as
variables. These need to be relocated and thus break on relocatable
kernels.
To make sure we can at least build, let's mark them as long instead
of u32 where 64bit relocations don't work.
This fixes the following build error:
WARNING: 2 bad relocations^M
> c000000000008590 R_PPC64_ADDR32 .text+0x4000000000008460^M
> c000000000008594 R_PPC64_ADDR32 .text+0x4000000000008598^M
Please keep in mind that actually using KVM on a relocated kernel
might still break. This only fixes the compile problem.

On Book3s_32 the tlbie instruction flushed effective addresses by the mask
0x0ffff000. This is pretty hard to reflect with a hash that hashes ~0xfff, so
to speed up that target we should also keep a special hash around for it.

So far we've been running all code without locking of any sort. This wasn't
really an issue because I didn't see any parallel access to the shadow MMU
code coming.
But then I started to implement dirty bitmapping to MOL which has the video
code in its own thread, so suddenly we had the dirty bitmap code run in
parallel to the shadow mmu code. And with that came trouble.
So I went ahead and made the MMU modifying functions as parallelizable as
I could think of. I hope I didn't screw up too much RCU logic :-). If you
know your way around RCU and locking and what needs to be done when, please
take a look at this patch.

We need to override EA as well as PA lookups for the magic page. When the guest
tells us to project it, the magic page overrides any guest mappings.
In order to reflect that, we need to hook into all the MMU layers of KVM to
force map the magic page if necessary.

We will be introducing a method to project the shared page in guest context.
As soon as we're talking about this coupling, the shared page is colled magic
page.

On PowerPC it's very normal to not support all of the physical RAM in real mode.
To check if we're matching on the shared page or not, we need to know the limits
so we can restrain ourselves to that range.
So let's make it a define instead of open-coding it. And while at it, let's also
increase it.

When the guest turns on interrupts again, it needs to know if we have an
interrupt pending for it. Because if so, it should rather get out of guest
context and get the interrupt.
So we introduce a new field in the shared page that we use to tell the guest
that there's a pending interrupt lying around.

When running in hooked code we need a way to disable interrupts without
clobbering any interrupts or exiting out to the hypervisor.
To achieve this, we have an additional critical field in the shared page. If
that field is equal to the r1 register of the guest, it tells the hypervisor
that we're in such a critical section and thus may not receive any interrupts.

To communicate with KVM directly we need to plumb some sort of interface
between the guest and KVM. Usually those interfaces use hypercalls.
This hypercall implementation is described in the last patch of the series
in a special documentation file. Please read that for further information.
This patch implements stubs to handle KVM PPC hypercalls on the host and
guest side alike.

When in kernel mode there are 4 additional registers available that are
simple data storage. Instead of exiting to the hypervisor to read and
write those, we can just share them with the guest using the page.

The SRR0 and SRR1 registers contain cached values of the PC and MSR
respectively. They get written to by the hypervisor when an interrupt
occurs or directly by the kernel. They are also used to tell the rfi(d)
instruction where to jump to.
Because it only gets touched on defined events that, it's very simple to
share with the guest. Hypervisor and guest both have full r/w access.

One of the most obvious registers to share with the guest directly is the
MSR. The MSR contains the "interrupts enabled" flag which the guest has to
toggle in critical sections.
So in order to bring the overhead of interrupt en- and disabling down, let's
put msr into the shared page. Keep in mind that even though you can fully read
its contents, writing to it doesn't always update all state. There are a few
safe fields that don't require hypervisor interaction. See the documentation
for a list of MSR bits that are safe to be set from inside the guest.

compat_alloc_user_space() expects the caller to independently call
access_ok() to verify the returned area. A missing call could
introduce problems on some architectures.
This patch incorporates the access_ok() check into
compat_alloc_user_space() and also adds a sanity check on the length.
The existing compat_alloc_user_space() implementations are renamed
arch_compat_alloc_user_space() and are used as part of the
implementation of the new global function.
This patch assumes NULL will cause __get_user()/__put_user() to either
fail or access userspace on all architectures. This should be
followed by checking the return value of compat_access_user_space()
for NULL in the callers, at which time the access_ok() in the callers
can also be removed.

This makes the 64-bit kernel use 64-bit signed integers for the counter
(effectively supporting 32-bit of active count in the semaphore), thus
avoiding things like overflow of the mmap_sem if you use a really crazy
number of threads
Note: Ideally the type in the structure should be atomic_long_t rather
than "long". However, there's some nasty issues with that. It needs to
be initialized statically -and- lib/rwsem.c does things like
sem->count = RWSEM_UNLOCKED_VALUE;
Now, if you mix in the fact that atomic_* types are actually structures
with one member and note typedefs of a scalar, it makes its really nasty.
So I stuck to what we did before using a long and casts for now.

Architectures implement dma_is_consistent() in different ways (some
misinterpret the definition of API in DMA-API.txt). So it hasn't been so
useful for drivers. We have only one user of the API in tree. Unlikely
out-of-tree drivers use the API.
Even if we fix dma_is_consistent() in some architectures, it doesn't look
useful at all. It was invented long ago for some old systems that can't
allocate coherent memory at all. It's better to export only APIs that are
definitely necessary for drivers.
Let's remove this API.

dma_get_cache_alignment returns the minimum DMA alignment. Architectures
defines it as ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN (formally ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN). So we
can unify dma_get_cache_alignment implementations.
Note that some architectures implement dma_get_cache_alignment wrongly.
dma_get_cache_alignment() should return the minimum DMA alignment. So
fully-coherent architectures should return 1. This patch also fixes this
issue.

Now each architecture has the own dma_get_cache_alignment implementation.
dma_get_cache_alignment returns the minimum DMA alignment. Architectures
define it as ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN (it's used to make sure that malloc'ed
buffer is DMA-safe; the buffer doesn't share a cache with the others). So
we can unify dma_get_cache_alignment implementations.
This patch:
dma_get_cache_alignment() needs to know if an architecture defines
ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN or not (needs to know if architecture has DMA
alignment restriction). However, slab.h define ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN if
architectures doesn't define it.
Let's rename ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN to ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN.
ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN is used only in the internals of slab/slob/slub
(except for crypto).

This patch is against the 2.6.34 source.
Paraphrased from the 1989 BSD patch by David Borman @ cray.com:
These are the changes needed for the kernel to support
LINEMODE in the server.
There is a new bit in the termios local flag word, EXTPROC.
When this bit is set, several aspects of the terminal driver
are disabled. Input line editing, character echo, and mapping
of signals are all disabled. This allows the telnetd to turn
off these functions when in linemode, but still keep track of
what state the user wants the terminal to be in.
New ioctl:
TIOCSIG Generate a signal to processes in the
current process group of the pty.
There is a new mode for packet driver, the TIOCPKT_IOCTL bit.
When packet mode is turned on in the pty, and the EXTPROC bit
is set, then whenever the state of the pty is changed, the
next read on the master side of the pty will have the TIOCPKT_IOCTL
bit set. This allows the process on the server side of the pty
to know when the state of the terminal has changed; it can then
issue the appropriate ioctl to retrieve the new state.
Since the original BSD patches accompanied the source code for telnet
I've left that reference here, but obviously the feature is useful for
any remote terminal protocol, including ssh.
The corresponding feature has existed in the BSD tty driver since 1989.
For historical reference, a good copy of the relevant files can be found
here:

Work around a silicon bug in the ac97 reset functionality of the
mpc5200(b). The implementation of the ac97 "cold" reset is flawed.
If the sync and output lines are high when reset is asserted the
attached ac97 device may go into test mode. Avoid this by
reconfiguring the psc to gpio mode and generating the reset manually.
From MPC5200B User's Manual:
"Some AC97 devices goes to a test mode, if the Sync line is high
during the Res line is low (reset phase). To avoid this behavior the
Sync line must be also forced to zero during the reset phase. To do
that, the pin muxing should switch to GPIO mode and the GPIO control
register should be used to control the output lines."

kunmap_atomic() is currently at level -4 on Rusty's "Hard To Misuse"
list[1] ("Follow common convention and you'll get it wrong"), except in
some architectures when CONFIG_DEBUG_HIGHMEM is set[2][3].
kunmap() takes a pointer to a struct page; kunmap_atomic(), however, takes
takes a pointer to within the page itself. This seems to once in a while
trip people up (the convention they are following is the one from
kunmap()).
Make it much harder to misuse, by moving it to level 9 on Rusty's list[4]
("The compiler/linker won't let you get it wrong"). This is done by
refusing to build if the type of its first argument is a pointer to a
struct page.
The real kunmap_atomic() is renamed to kunmap_atomic_notypecheck()
(which is what you would call in case for some strange reason calling it
with a pointer to a struct page is not incorrect in your code).
The previous version of this patch was compile tested on x86-64.
[1] http://ozlabs.org/~rusty/index.cgi/tech/2008-04-01.html
[2] In these cases, it is at level 5, "Do it right or it will always
break at runtime."
[3] At least mips and powerpc look very similar, and sparc also seems to
share a common ancestor with both; there seems to be quite some
degree of copy-and-paste coding here. The include/asm/highmem.h file
for these three archs mention x86 CPUs at its top.
[4] http://ozlabs.org/~rusty/index.cgi/tech/2008-03-30.html
[5] As an aside, could someone tell me why mn10300 uses unsigned long as
the first parameter of kunmap_atomic() instead of void *?

The POWER7 core has dynamic SMT mode switching which is controlled by
the hypervisor. There are 3 SMT modes:
SMT1 uses thread 0
SMT2 uses threads 0 & 1
SMT4 uses threads 0, 1, 2 & 3
When in any particular SMT mode, all threads have the same performance
as each other (ie. at any moment in time, all threads perform the same).
The SMT mode switching works such that when linux has threads 2 & 3 idle
and 0 & 1 active, it will cede (H_CEDE hypercall) threads 2 and 3 in the
idle loop and the hypervisor will automatically switch to SMT2 for that
core (independent of other cores). The opposite is not true, so if
threads 0 & 1 are idle and 2 & 3 are active, we will stay in SMT4 mode.
Similarly if thread 0 is active and threads 1, 2 & 3 are idle, we'll go
into SMT1 mode.
If we can get the core into a lower SMT mode (SMT1 is best), the threads
will perform better (since they share less core resources). Hence when
we have idle threads, we want them to be the higher ones.
This adds a feature bit for asymmetric packing to powerpc and then
enables it on POWER7.

Drop this argument now that we always want to rewind only to the
state of the first caller.
It means frame pointers are not necessary anymore to reliably get
the source of an event. But this also means we need this helper
to be a macro now, as an inline function is not an option since
we need to know when to provide a default implentation.

On 64bit, local_t is of size long, and thus we make local64_t an alias.
On 32bit, we fall back to atomic64_t. (architecture can provide optimized
32-bit version)
(This new facility is to be used by perf events optimizations.)

This patch moves the declaration of of_get_address(), of_get_pci_address(),
and of_pci_address_to_resource() out of arch code and into the common
linux/of_address header file.
This patch also fixes some of the asm/prom.h ordering issues. It still
includes some header files that it ideally shouldn't be, but at least the
ordering is consistent now so that of_* overrides work.

It is mostly unused now. Sparc has a few defines left in it, but they
can be moved to other headers. Removing this header means that new
architectures adding CONFIG_OF support don't need to also add this
header file.
