* powerpc: Fix incorrect comment about interrupt stack allocationAnton Blanchard2010-12-08
| | | | | | | | We now allow interrupt stacks anywhere in the first segment which can be 256M or 1TB. Fix the comment. Signed-off-by: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org> Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>
* powerpc: Hardcode popcnt instructions for old assemblersAnton Blanchard2010-12-08

* powerpc/pseries: Pass phb only to iommu_table_setparms_lparBenjamin Herrenschmidt2010-12-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | iommu_table_setparms_lpar needs either the phb or the subbusnumber (not both), pass the phb to make it similar to iommu_table_setparms. Note: In cases where a caller was passing bus->number previously to iommu_table_setparms_lpar() rather than phb->bus->number, this can lead to a different value in tbl->it_busno. The only example of this was the removed pci_dma_dev_setup_pSeriesLP(), removed in "ppc/iommu: remove unneeded pci_dma_dev_setup_pSeriesLP". [BenH: You updated only one of the two callers.

* powerpc/pseries: Do not need to check for dma_window == NULLNishanth Aravamudan2010-12-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | The block in pci_dma_dev_setup_pSeriesLP for dma_window == NULL can be removed because we will only teminate the loop if we had already allocated a iommu table for that node or we found a window. While there may be no window for the device, the intresting part is if we are reusing a table or creating it for the first device under it.

* powerpc/pseries: Checking for pdn->parent is redundantNishanth Aravamudan2010-12-08
| | | | | | | | | | | The device tree root is never a pci bus, and will not have a PCI_DN(pdn), so the check for PCI_DN added in 650f7b3b2f0ead0673e90452cf3dedde97c537ba makes the check for pdn->parent redundant and it can be removed.

* powerpc/pseries: Do not search for dma-window property on dlpar removeNishanth Aravamudan2010-12-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The iommu_table pointer in the pci auxiliary struct of device_node has not been used by the iommu ops since the dma refactor of 12d04eef927bf61328af2c7cbe756c96f98ac3bf, however this code still uses it to find tables for dlpar. By only setting the PCI_DN iommu_table pointer on nodes with dma window properties, we will be able to quickly find the node for later checks, and can remove the table without looking for the the dma window property on dlpar remove.

* powerpc/iommu: Use coherent_dma_mask for alloc_coherentNishanth Aravamudan2010-12-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The IOMMU code has been passing the dma-mask instead of the coherent_dma_mask to the iommu allocator. Coherent allocations should be made using the coherent_dma_mask. Also update the vio code to ensure the coherent_dma_mask is set. Without this change drivers, such as ibmvscsi, fail to load with the corrected dma_iommu_alloc_coherent().

These hints are abstract number given by the hypervisor based on the extended knowledge the hypervisor has regarding the system topology and resource mappings. The activate and the deactivate sysfs entry is for the two distinct operations that we could do for energy savings. When we have more capacity than required, we could deactivate few core to save energy. The choice of the core to deactivate will be based on /sys/devices/system/cpu/deactivate_hint_list. The comma separated list of cpus (cores) will be the preferred choice. If we have to activate some of the deactivated cores, then /sys/devices/system/cpu/activate_hint_list will be used. The per-cpu file /sys/device/system/cpu/cpuN/pseries_(de)activate_hint further provide more fine grain information by exporting the value of the hint itself.

Instead of making an API to read threads_per_core, this is a higher level wrapper function to convert from logical cpu number to core number. The current APIs cpu_first_thread_in_core() and cpu_last_thread_in_core() returns logical CPU number while cpu_thread_to_core() returns core number or index which is not a logical CPU number. The new APIs are now clearly named to distinguish 'core number' versus first and last 'logical cpu number' in that core. The new APIs cpu_{first,last}_thread_sibling() work on logical cpu numbers. While cpu_first_thread_of_core() and cpu_core_index_of_thread() work on core index. Example usage: (4 threads per core system) cpu_first_thread_sibling(5) = 4 cpu_last_thread_sibling(5) = 7 cpu_core_index_of_thread(5) = 1 cpu_first_thread_of_core(1) = 4 cpu_core_index_of_thread() is used in cpu_to_drc_index() in the module and cpu_first_thread_of_core() is used in drc_index_to_cpu() in the module.
