ae36e95cf8 The branch contains the following device tree changes the v3.17 merge
window:
 
 Group changes to the device tree. In preparation for adding device tree
 overlay support, OF_DYNAMIC is reworked so that a set of device tree
 changes can be prepared and applied to the tree all at once. OF_RECONFIG
 notifiers see the most significant change here so that users always get
 a consistent view of the tree. Notifiers generation is moved from before
 a change to after it, and notifiers for a group of changes are emitted
 after the entire block of changes have been applied
 
 Automatic console selection from DT. Console drivers can now use
 of_console_check() to see if the device node is specified as a console
 device. If so then it gets added as a preferred console. UART devices
 get this support automatically when uart_add_one_port() is called.
 
 DT unit tests no longer depend on pre-loaded data in the device tree.
 Data is loaded dynamically at the start of unit tests, and then unloaded
 again when the tests have completed.
 
 Also contains a few bugfixes for reserved regions and early memory setup.

8e83e9053f powerpc/pseries: Switch pseries drivers to use machine_xxx_initcall()
A lot of the code in platforms/pseries is using non-machine initcalls.
That means if a kernel built with pseries support runs on another
platform, for example powernv, the initcalls will still run.

Most of these cases are OK, though sometimes only due to luck. Some were
having more effect:

 * hcall_inst_init
  - Checking FW_FEATURE_LPAR which is set on ps3 & celleb.
 * mobility_sysfs_init
  - created sysfs files unconditionally
  - but no effect due to ENOSYS from rtas_ibm_suspend_me()
 * apo_pm_init
  - created sysfs, allows write
  - nothing checks the value written to though
 * alloc_dispatch_log_kmem_cache
  - creating kmem_cache on non-pseries machines

c5aec4c76a Merge branch 'next' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/benh/powerpc
Pull powerpc updates from Ben Herrenschmidt:
 "Here is the bulk of the powerpc changes for this merge window.  It got
  a bit delayed in part because I wasn't paying attention, and in part
  because I discovered I had a core PCI change without a PCI maintainer
  ack in it.  Bjorn eventually agreed it was ok to merge it though we'll
  probably improve it later and I didn't want to rebase to add his ack.

  There is going to be a bit more next week, essentially fixes that I
  still want to sort through and test.

  The biggest item this time is the support to build the ppc64 LE kernel
  with our new v2 ABI.  We previously supported v2 userspace but the
  kernel itself was a tougher nut to crack.  This is now sorted mostly
  thanks to Anton and Rusty.

  We also have a fairly big series from Cedric that add support for
  64-bit LE zImage boot wrapper.  This was made harder by the fact that
  traditionally our zImage wrapper was always 32-bit, but our new LE
  toolchains don't really support 32-bit anymore (it's somewhat there
  but not really "supported") so we didn't want to rely on it.  This
  meant more churn that just endian fixes.

  This brings some more LE bits as well, such as the ability to run in
  LE mode without a hypervisor (ie. under OPAL firmware) by doing the
  right OPAL call to reinitialize the CPU to take HV interrupts in the
  right mode and the usual pile of endian fixes.

  There's another series from Gavin adding EEH improvements (one day we
  *will* have a release with less than 20 EEH patches, I promise!).

  Another highlight is the support for the "Split core" functionality on
  P8 by Michael.  This allows a P8 core to be split into "sub cores" of
  4 threads which allows the subcores to run different guests under KVM
  (the HW still doesn't support a partition per thread).

  And then the usual misc bits and fixes ..."

d8c6ad3184 sched/idle, PPC: Remove redundant cpuidle_idle_call()
The core idle loop now takes care of it.  However a few things need
checking:

- Invocation of cpuidle_idle_call() in pseries_lpar_idle() happened
  through arch_cpu_idle() and was therefore always preceded by a call
  to ppc64_runlatch_off().  To preserve this property now that
  cpuidle_idle_call() is invoked directly from core code, a call to
  ppc64_runlatch_off() has been added to idle_loop_prolog() in
  platforms/pseries/processor_idle.c.

- Similarly, cpuidle_idle_call() was followed by ppc64_runlatch_off()
  so a call to the later has been added to idle_loop_epilog().

- And since arch_cpu_idle() always made sure to re-enable IRQs if they
  were not enabled, this is now
  done in idle_loop_epilog() as well.

The above was made in order to keep the execution flow close to the
original.  I don't know if that was strictly necessary. Someone well
aquainted with the platform details might find some room for possible
optimizations.

   - Reworked Machine Check handling on kernels running without a
     hypervisor (or acting as a hypervisor).  Provides hooks to handle
     some errors in real mode such as TLB errors, handle SLB errors,
     etc...

   - Support for retrieving memory error information from the service
     processor on IBM servers running without a hypervisor and routing
     them to the memory poison infrastructure.

   - _PAGE_NUMA support on server processors

   - 32-bit BookE relocatable kernel support

   - FSL e6500 hardware tablewalk support

   - A bunch of new/revived board support

   - FSL e6500 deeper idle states and altivec powerdown support

  You'll notice a generic mm change here, it has been acked by the

Default CONFIG_PANIC_TIMEOUT to 180 seconds on powerpc. The

Thus, there's a small window where we don't have the correct

don't have a better option. In any case, if the user changes the
default setting of 180 seconds, we honor that user setting.

363edbe261 powerpc: Default arch idle could cede processor on pseries
When adding cpuidle support to pSeries, we introduced two
regressions:

  - The new cpuidle backend driver only works under hypervisors
    supporting the "SLPLAR" option, which isn't the case of the
    old POWER4 hypervisor and the HV "light" used on js2x blades

  - The cpuidle driver registers fairly late, meaning that for
    a significant portion of the boot process, we end up having
    all threads spinning. This slows down the boot process and
    increases the overall resource usage if the hypervisor has
    shared processors.

This fixes both by implementing a "default" idle that will cede
to the hypervisor when possible, in a very simple way without
all the bells and whisles of cpuidle.

The firmware_has_feature() function makes it easy to check for supported

firmware_has_feature() to include checking for specified bits
in vector 5 of the architecture vector as reported in the device tree.

As part of this the #defines used for the architecture vector are re-defined
such that each option has the index into vector 5 and the feature bit encoded
into it. This makes checking for architecture bits when initiating data
for firmware_has_feature much easier.

abf917cd91 cputime: Generic on-demand virtual cputime accounting
If we want to stop the tick further idle, we need to be
able to account the cputime without using the tick.

Virtual based cputime accounting solves that problem by
hooking into kernel/user boundaries.

However implementing CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING require
low level hooks and involves more overhead. But we already
have a generic context tracking subsystem that is required
for RCU needs by archs which plan to shut down the tick
outside idle.

This patch implements a generic virtual based cputime
accounting that relies on these generic kernel/user hooks.

There are some upsides of doing this:

- This requires no arch code to implement CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING
if context tracking is already built (already necessary for RCU in full
tickless mode).

- We can rely on the generic context tracking subsystem to dynamically
(de)activate the hooks, so that we can switch anytime between virtual
and tick based accounting. This way we don't have the overhead
of the virtual accounting when the tick is running periodically.

And one downside:

- There is probably more overhead than a native virtual based cputime
accounting. But this relies on hooks that are already set anyway.

a413f474a0 powerpc: Disable relocation on exceptions whenever PR KVM is active
For PR KVM we allow userspace to map 0xc000000000000000. Because
transitioning from userspace to the guest kernel may use the relocated
exception vectors we have to disable relocation on exceptions whenever
PR KVM is active as we cannot trust that address.

This issue does not apply to HV KVM, since changing from a guest to the
hypervisor will never use the relocated exception vectors.

Currently the hypervisor interface only allows us to toggle relocation
on exceptions on a partition wide scope, so we need to globally disable
relocation on exceptions when the first PR KVM instance is started and
only re-enable them when all PR KVM instances have been destroyed.

It's a bit heavy handed, but until the hypervisor gives us a lightweight
way to toggle relocation on exceptions on a single thread it's only real
option.

eb740b5f3e powerpc/eeh: Introduce EEH device
Original EEH implementation depends on struct pci_dn heavily. However,
EEH shouldn't depend on that actually because EEH needn't share much
information with other PCI components. That's to say, EEH should have
worked independently.

The patch introduces struct eeh_dev so that EEH core components needn't
be working based on struct pci_dn in future. Also, struct pci_dn, struct
eeh_dev instances are created in dynamic fasion and the binding with EEH
device, OF node, PCI device is implemented as well.

The EEH devices are created after PHBs are detected and initialized, but
PCI emunation hasn't started yet. Apart from that, PHB might be created
dynamically through DLPAR component and the EEH devices should be creatd
as well. Another case might be OF node is created dynamically by DR
(Dynamic Reconfiguration), which has been defined by PAPR. For those OF
nodes created by DR, EEH devices should be also created accordingly. The
binding between EEH device and OF node is done while the EEH device is
initially created.

The binding between EEH device and PCI device should be done after PCI
emunation is done. Besides, PCI hotplug also needs the binding so that
the EEH devices could be traced from the newly coming PCI buses or PCI
devices.

EEH has been implemented on RTAS-compliant pSeries platform.
That's to say, the EEH operations will be implemented through RTAS
calls eventually. The situation limited feasible extension on EEH.
In order to support EEH on multiple platforms like pseries and powernv
simutaneously. We have to split the platform dependent EEH options
up out of current implementation.

The patch addresses supporting EEH on multiple platforms. The pseries
platform dependent EEH operations will be abstracted by struct eeh_ops.
EEH core components will be built based on the registered EEH operations.
With the mechanism, what the individual platform needs to do is implement
platform dependent EEH operations.

For now, the pseries platform is covered under the mechanism. That means
we have to think about other platforms to support EEH, like powernv.
Besides, we only have framework for the mechanism and we have to implement
it for pseries platform later.

5019609fce powerpc/mpic: Remove MPIC_BROKEN_FRR_NIRQS and duplicate irq_count
The mpic->irq_count variable is only used as a software error-checking
limit to determine whether or not an IRQ number is valid.  In board code
which does not manually specify an IRQ count to mpic_alloc(), i.e. 0, it
is automatically detected from the number of ISUs and the ISU size.

In practice, all hardware ends up with irq_count == num_sources, so all
of the runtime checks on mpic->irq_count should just check the value of
mpic->num_sources instead.

When platform hardware does not correctly report the number of IRQs,
which only happens on the MPC85xx/MPC86xx, the MPIC_BROKEN_FRR_NIRQS
flag is used to override the detected value of num_sources with the
manual irq_count parameter.  Since there's no need to manually specify
the number of IRQs except in this case, the extra flag can be eliminated
and the test changed to "irq_count != 0".

We've had a 180 second panic timeout on ppc64 for as long as I

reasons:

- Almost all pseries machines have a hypervisor console so panic
  output will be available in a scrollback buffer.

- The 180 seconds impacts our availability, users (other than
  kernel hackers) just want the box to come back around so it
  can continue its work.

- I spend a lot of my life staring at the 180 second panic timeout.

4d2bb3f500 powerpc/pseries: Re-implement HVSI as part of hvc_vio
On pseries machines, consoles are provided by the hypervisor using
a low level get_chars/put_chars type interface. However, this is
really just a transport to the service processor which implements
them either as "raw" console (networked consoles, HMC, ...) or as
"hvsi" serial ports.

The later is a simple packet protocol on top of the raw character
interface that is supposed to convey additional "serial port" style
semantics. In practice however, all it does is provide a way to
read the CD line and set/clear our DTR line, that's it.

We currently implement the "raw" protocol as an hvc console backend
(/dev/hvcN) and the "hvsi" protocol using a separate tty driver
(/dev/hvsi0).

However this is quite impractical. The arbitrary difference between
the two type of devices has been a major source of user (and distro)
confusion. Additionally, there's an additional mini -hvsi implementation
in the pseries platform code for our low level debug console and early
boot kernel messages, which means code duplication, though that low
level variant is impractical as it's incapable of doing the initial
protocol negociation to establish the link to the FSP.

This essentially replaces the dedicated hvsi driver and the platform
udbg code completely by extending the existing hvc_vio backend used
in "raw" mode so that:

 - It now supports HVSI as well
 - We add support for hvc backend providing tiocm{get,set}
 - It also provides a udbg interface for early debug and boot console

This is overall less code, though this will only be obvious once we
remove the old "hvsi" driver, which is still available for now. When
the old driver is enabled, the new code still kicks in for the low
level udbg console, replacing the old mini implementation in the platform
code, it just doesn't provide the higher level "hvc" interface.

In addition to producing generally simler code, this has several benefits
over our current situation:

 - The user/distro only has to deal with /dev/hvcN for the hypervisor
console, avoiding all sort of confusion that has plagued us in the past

 - The tty, kernel and low level debug console all use the same code
base which supports the full protocol establishment process, thus the
console is now available much earlier than it used to be with the
old HVSI driver. The kernel console works much earlier and udbg is
available much earlier too. Hackers can enable a hard coded very-early
debug console as well that works with HVSI (previously that was only
supported for the "raw" mode).

I've tried to keep the same semantics as hvsi relative to how I react
to things like CD changes, with some subtle differences though:

 - I clear DTR on close if HUPCL is set

 - Current hvsi triggers a hangup if it detects a up->down transition
   on CD (you can still open a console with CD down). My new implementation
   triggers a hangup if the link to the FSP is severed, and severs it upon
   detecting a up->down transition on CD.

af442a1baa powerpc: Ensure dtl buffers do not cross 4k boundary
Future releases of fimrware will enforce a requirement that DTL buffers

127493d5dc satisfies this requirement for
CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING=y kernels, but if !CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING
&& CONFIG_DTL=y, the current code will fail at dtl registration time.
Fix this by making the kmem cache from
127493d5dc visible outside of setup.c and
using the same cache in both dtl.c and setup.c. This requires a bit of
reorganization to ensure ordering of the kmem cache and buffer
allocations.

Note: Since firmware now limits the size of the buffer, I made
dtl_buf_entries read-only in debugfs.

Tested with upcoming firmware with the 4 combinations of

0b05ac6e24 powerpc/xics: Rewrite XICS driver
This is a significant rework of the XICS driver, too significant to
conveniently break it up into a series of smaller patches to be honest.

The driver is moved to a more generic location to allow new platforms
to use it, and is broken up into separate ICP and ICS "backends". For
now we have the native and "hypervisor" ICP backends and one common
RTAS ICS backend.

The driver supports one ICP backend instanciation, and many ICS ones,
in order to accomodate future platforms with multiple possibly different
