percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.
percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.
http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
The script does the followings.
* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used,
gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.
* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains
core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
doesn't seem to be any matching order.
* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
file.
The conversion was done in the following steps.
1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400
files.
2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion,
some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added
inclusions to around 150 files.
3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.
4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.
5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h
inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each
slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
necessary.
6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).
* x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
* powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
* sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
* ia64 SMP allmodconfig
* s390 SMP allmodconfig
* alpha SMP allmodconfig
* um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig
8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
a separate patch and serve as bisection point.
Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

Now that we properly keep track of the CPPR value (since
49bd364713, "powerpc/pseries: Track previous
CPPR values to correctly EOI interrupts") we can pass it to the
H_XIRR hcall.
This is needed because the Partition Adjunct Option of new versions of
pHyp extend the H_XIRR hcall to include the CPPR as an input parameter.
Earlier versions not supporting this option just disregard the extra
input parameter, so this doesn't cause any problems for existing systems.
The Partition Adjunct Option is required for future systems that will
support SR-IOV capable devices.

On 64-bit kernels we currently have a 512 byte struct paca_struct for
each cpu (usually just called "the paca"). Currently they are statically
allocated, which means a kernel built for a large number of cpus will
waste a lot of space if it's booted on a machine with few cpus.
We can avoid that by only allocating the number of pacas we need at
boot. However this is complicated by the fact that we need to access
the paca before we know how many cpus there are in the system.
The solution is to dynamically allocate enough space for NR_CPUS pacas,
but then later in boot when we know how many cpus we have, we free any
unused pacas.

This implements perf_event support for the Freescale embedded performance
monitor, based on the existing perf_event.c that supports server/classic
chips.
Some limitations:
- Performance monitor interrupts are regular EE interrupts, and thus you
can't profile places with interrupts disabled. We may want to implement
soft IRQ-disabling, with perfmon interrupts exempted and treated as NMIs.
- When trying to schedule multiple event groups at once, and using
restricted events, situations could arise where scheduling fails even
though it would be possible. Consider three groups, each with two events.
One group has restricted events, the others don't. The two non-restricted
groups are scheduled, then one is removed, which happens to occupy the two
counters that can't do restricted events. The remaining non-restricted
group will not be moved to the non-restricted-capable counters to make
room if the restricted group tries to be scheduled.

The code to track the CPPR values added by commit
49bd364713 ("powerpc/pseries: Track previous
CPPR values to correctly EOI interrupts") broke kexec on pseries because
the kexec code in xics.c calls xics_set_cpu_priority() before the IPI has
been EOI'ed. This wasn't a problem previously but it now triggers a BUG_ON
in xics_set_cpu_priority() because os_cppr->index isn't 0.
Fix this problem by setting the index on the CPPR stack to 0 before calling
xics_set_cpu_priority() in xics_teardown_cpu().
Also make it clear that we only want to set the priority when there's just
one CPPR value in the stack, and enforce it by updating the value of
os_cppr->stack[0] rather than os_cppr->stack[os_cppr->index].
While we're at it change the BUG_ON to a WARN_ON.

In struct device_node, the phandle is named 'linux_phandle' for PowerPC
and MicroBlaze, and 'node' for SPARC. There is no good reason for the
difference, it is just an artifact of the code diverging over a couple
of years. This patch renames both to simply .phandle.
Note: the .node also existed in PowerPC/MicroBlaze, but the only user
seems to be arch/powerpc/platforms/powermac/pfunc_core.c. It doesn't
look like the assignment between .linux_phandle and .node is
significantly different enough to warrant the separate code paths
unless ibm,phandle properties actually appear in Apple device trees.
I think it is safe to eliminate the old .node property and use
phandle everywhere.

The Collaborative Memory Manager (CMM) module allocates individual pages
over time that are not migratable. On a long running system this can
severely impact the ability to find enough pages to support a hotplug
memory remove operation.
This patch adds a memory isolation notifier and a memory hotplug notifier.
The memory isolation notifier will return the number of pages found in
the range specified. This is used to determine if all of the used pages
in a pageblock are owned by the balloon (or other entities in the notifier
chain). The hotplug notifier will free pages in the range which is to be
removed. The priority of this hotplug notifier is low so that it will be
called near last, this helps avoids removing loaned pages in operations
that fail due to other handlers.
CMM activity will be halted when hotplug remove operations are active and
resume activity after a delay period to allow the hypervisor time to
adjust.

The Nintendo Wii video game console has two discontiguous RAM regions:
- MEM1: 24MB @ 0x00000000
- MEM2: 64MB @ 0x10000000
Unfortunately, the kernel currently does not support discontiguous RAM
memory regions on 32-bit PowerPC platforms.
This patch adds a series of workarounds to allow the use of the second
memory region (MEM2) as RAM by the kernel.
Basically, a single range of memory from the beginning of MEM1 to the
end of MEM2 is reported to the kernel, and a memory reservation is
created for the hole between MEM1 and MEM2.
With this patch the system is able to use all the available RAM and not
just ~27% of it.
This will no longer be needed when proper discontig memory support
for 32-bit PowerPC is added to the kernel.

At the moment when we EOI an interrupt we set the CPPR back to 0xFF
regardless of its previous value. This could lead to problems if we
take an interrupt with a priority of 5, but before EOIing it we get
an IPI which has a priority of 4. The problem is that at the moment
when we EOI the IPI we will set the CPPR to 0xFF, but it should
really be set back to 5 (the previous priority).
To keep track of the previous CPPR values we create the xics_cppr
structure that has an array for CPPR values and an index pointing
to the current priority. This can easily grow if new priorities get
added in the future.
This will also be useful because the partition adjunct option of
upcoming machines will update the H_XIRR hcall to accept the CPPR
as a parameter.

portions of dlpar.c.
This patch also slightly modifies the online_node_cpus and offline_node_cpus

Currently the cpu-allocation/deallocation process comprises of two steps:
- Set the indicators and to update the device tree with DLPAR node
information.
- Online/offline the allocated/deallocated CPU.
This is achieved by writing to the sysfs tunables "probe" during allocation
and "release" during deallocation.
At the sametime, the userspace can independently online/offline the CPUs of
the system using the sysfs tunable "online".
It is quite possible that when a userspace tool offlines a CPU
for the purpose of deallocation and is in the process of updating the device
tree, some other userspace tool could bring the CPU back online by writing to
the "online" sysfs tunable thereby causing the deallocate process to fail.
The solution to this is to serialize writes to the "probe/release" sysfs
tunable with the writes to the "online" sysfs tunable.
This patch employs a mutex to provide this serialization, which is a no-op on
all architectures except PPC_PSERIES

The Dynamic Logical Partitioning capabilities of the powerpc pseries platform
allows for the addition and removal of resources (i.e. CPU's, memory, and PCI
devices) from a partition. The removal of a resource involves
removing the resource's node from the device tree and then returning the
resource to firmware via the rtas set-indicator call. To add a resource, it
is first obtained from firmware via the rtas set-indicator call and then a
new device tree node is created using the ibm,configure-coinnector rtas call
and added to the device tree.
This patch provides the kernel DLPAR infrastructure in a new filed named
dlpar.c. The functionality provided is for acquiring and releasing a resource
from firmware and the parsing of information returned from the
ibm,configure-connector rtas call. Additionally this exports the pSeries
reconfiguration notifier chain so that it can be invoked when device tree
updates are made.
