Deepthi Dharwar 8ea959a17f cpuidle/powerpc: Fix smt_snooze_delay functionality.
smt_snooze_delay was designed to  delay idle loop's nap entry
in the native idle code before it got  ported over to use as part of
the cpuidle framework.

A -ve value  assigned to smt_snooze_delay should result in
busy looping, in other words disabling the entry to nap state.

	- https://lists.ozlabs.org/pipermail/linuxppc-dev/2010-May/082450.html

This particular functionality can be achieved currently by
echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/state1/disable
but it is broken when one assigns -ve value to  the smt_snooze_delay
variable either via sysfs entry or ppc64_cpu util.

This patch aims to fix this, by disabling nap state when smt_snooze_delay
variable is set to -ve value.

Denys Vlasenko 751f409db6 compat: move compat_siginfo_t definition to asm/compat.h
This is a preparatory patch for the introduction of NT_SIGINFO elf note.

Make the location of compat_siginfo_t uniform across eight architectures
which have it.  Now it can be pulled in by including asm/compat.h or
linux/compat.h.

Most of the copies are verbatim.  compat_uid[32]_t had to be replaced by
__compat_uid[32]_t.  compat_uptr_t had to be moved up before
compat_siginfo_t in asm/compat.h on a several architectures (tile already
had it moved up).  compat_sigval_t had to be relocated from linux/compat.h
to asm/compat.h.

Anton Blanchard d900bd7366 powerpc/iommu: Fix multiple issues with IOMMU pools code
There are a number of issues in the recent IOMMU pools code:

- On a preempt kernel we might switch CPUs in the middle of building
  a scatter gather list. When this happens the handle hint passed in
  no longer falls within the local CPU's pool. Check for this and
  fall back to the pool hint.

- We were missing a spin_unlock/spin_lock in one spot where we
  switch pools.

- We need to provide locking around dart_tlb_invalidate_all and
  dart_tlb_invalidate_one now that the global lock is gone.

Linus Torvalds aab174f0df Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs
Pull vfs update from Al Viro:

 - big one - consolidation of descriptor-related logics; almost all of
   that is moved to fs/file.c

   (BTW, I'm seriously tempted to rename the result to fd.c.  As it is,
   we have a situation when file_table.c is about handling of struct
   file and file.c is about handling of descriptor tables; the reasons
   are historical - file_table.c used to be about a static array of
   struct file we used to have way back).

   A lot of stray ends got cleaned up and converted to saner primitives,
   disgusting mess in android/binder.c is still disgusting, but at least
   doesn't poke so much in descriptor table guts anymore.  A bunch of
   relatively minor races got fixed in process, plus an ext4 struct file
   leak.

 - related thing - fget_light() partially unuglified; see fdget() in
   there (and yes, it generates the code as good as we used to have).

 - also related - bits of Cyrill's procfs stuff that got entangled into
   that work; _not_ all of it, just the initial move to fs/proc/fd.c and
   switch of fdinfo to seq_file.

 - Alex's fs/coredump.c spiltoff - the same story, had been easier to
   take that commit than mess with conflicts.  The rest is a separate
   pile, this was just a mechanical code movement.

 - a few misc patches all over the place.  Not all for this cycle,
   there'll be more (and quite a few currently sit in akpm's tree)."

Fix up trivial conflicts in the android binder driver, and some fairly
simple conflicts due to two different changes to the sock_alloc_file()
interface ("take descriptor handling from sock_alloc_file() to callers"
vs "net: Providing protocol type via system.sockprotoname xattr of
/proc/PID/fd entries" adding a dentry name to the socket)

Catalin Marinas 8f9c0119d7 compat: fs: Generic compat_sys_sendfile implementation
This function is used by sparc, powerpc and arm64 for compat support.
The patch adds a generic implementation which calls do_sendfile()
directly and avoids set_fs().

The sparc architecture has wrappers for the sign extensions while
powerpc relies on the compiler to do the this. The patch adds wrappers
for powerpc to handle the u32->int type conversion.

compat_sys_sendfile64() can be replaced by a sys_sendfile() call since
compat_loff_t has the same size as off_t on a 64-bit system.

On powerpc, the patch also changes the 64-bit sendfile call from
sys_sendile64 to sys_sendfile.

Michael Ellerman 466921c5a4 powerpc: Set paca->data_offset = 0 for boot cpu
In commit 407821a we assigned a poison value to the paca->data_offset.

Unfortunately with CONFIG_LOCK_STAT=y lockdep will read & write to percpu
data very early in boot, prior to us initialising the percpu areas,
leading to a crash.

We have been getting away with this because the data_offset was previously
set to zero. This causes lockdep to read & write to the initial copy of
the percpu variables, which are discarded later in boot.

Although that is "fishy", it does work, and for lock statistics it is no
big deal to discard the counts from early boot.

So set the paca->data_offset = 0 for the boot cpu paca only.

Frederic Weisbecker a7e1a9e3af vtime: Consolidate system/idle context detection
Move the code that finds out to which context we account the
cputime into generic layer.

Archs that consider the whole time spent in the idle task as idle
time (ia64, powerpc) can rely on the generic vtime_account()
and implement vtime_account_system() and vtime_account_idle(),
letting the generic code to decide when to call which API.

Archs that have their own meaning of idle time, such as s390
that only considers the time spent in CPU low power mode as idle
time, can just override vtime_account().

Frederic Weisbecker bf9fae9f5e cputime: Use a proper subsystem naming for vtime related APIs
Use a naming based on vtime as a prefix for virtual based
cputime accounting APIs:

- account_system_vtime() -> vtime_account()
- account_switch_vtime() -> vtime_task_switch()

It makes it easier to allow for further declension such
as vtime_account_system(), vtime_account_idle(), ... if we
want to find out the context we account to from generic code.

This also make it better to know on which subsystem these APIs
refer to.

Tiejun Chen a9c4e541ea powerpc/kprobe: Complete kprobe and migrate exception frame
We can't emulate stwu since that may corrupt current exception stack.
So we will have to do real store operation in the exception return code.

Firstly we'll allocate a trampoline exception frame below the kprobed
function stack and copy the current exception frame to the trampoline.
Then we can do this real store operation to implement 'stwu', and reroute
the trampoline frame to r1 to complete this exception migration.

Remove the dependency on PCI initialization for SWIOTLB initialization.
So that PCI can be initialized at proper time.

SWIOTLB is partly determined by PCI inbound/outbound map which is assigned
in PCI initialization. But swiotlb_init() should be done at the stage of
mem_init() which is much earlier than PCI initialization. So we reserve the
memory for SWIOTLB first and free it if not necessary.

All boards are converted to fit this change.

Gavin Shan 35e5cfe27e powerpc/eeh: Move EEH initialization around
Currently, we have 3 phases for EEH initialization on pSeries platform.
All of them are done through builtin functions: platform initialization,
EEH device creation, and EEH subsystem enablement. All of them are done
no later than ppc_md.setup_arch. That means that the slab/slub isn't ready
yet, so we have to allocate memory chunks on basis of PAGE_SIZE for those
dynamically created EEH devices. That's pretty expensive.

In order to utilize slab/slub for memory allocation, we have to move the EEH
initialization functions around, but all of them should be called after slab
is ready.

Suzuki Poulose 4bc77a5ed2 powerpc: Export memory limit via device tree
The powerpc kernel doesn't export the memory limit enforced by 'mem='
kernel parameter. This is required for building the ELF header in
kexec-tools to limit the vmcore to capture only the used memory. On
powerpc the kexec-tools depends on the device-tree for memory related
information, unlike /proc/iomem on the x86.

Without this information, the kexec-tools assumes the entire System
RAM and vmcore creates an unnecessarily larger dump.

This patch exports the memory limit, if present, via
chosen/linux,memory-limit
property, so that the vmcore can be limited to the memory limit.

The prom_init seems to export this value in the same node. But doesn't
really
appear there.  Also the memory_limit gets adjusted with the processing of
crashkernel= parameter. This patch makes sure we get the actual limit.

The kexec-tools will use the value to limit the 'end' of the memory
regions.

Tested this patch on ppc64 and ppc32(ppc440) with a kexec-tools
patch by Mahesh.

Suzuki Poulose a84fcd4687 powerpc: Change memory_limit from phys_addr_t to unsigned long long
There are some device-tree nodes, whose values are of type phys_addr_t.
The phys_addr_t is variable sized based on the CONFIG_PHSY_T_64BIT.

Change these to a fixed unsigned long long for consistency.

This patch does the change only for memory_limit.

The following is a list of such variables which need the change:

 1) kernel_end, crashk_size - in arch/powerpc/kernel/machine_kexec.c

 2) (struct resource *)crashk_res.start - We could export a local static
    variable from machine_kexec.c.

Changing the above values might break the kexec-tools. So, I will
fix kexec-tools first to handle the different sized values and then change
 the above.

Gavin Shan cf1a4cf875 powerpc/pci: Save P2P bridge resource if possible
When PCI probe flag PCI_REASSIGN_ALL_RSRC has been passed into PCI
core, it's hoped that all resources to be reassigned by PCI core.
As to particular P2P (PCI-to-PCI) bridge, the size of the corresponding
BAR (I/O, MMIO, prefetchable MMIO) is calculated by the resources
required by the PCI devices behind the P2P bridge. That means that
the information like start/end address retrieved from the hardware
registers of the P2P bridge is meainingless in the case. However,
we still count that in and the BARs might have been configured by
firmware with non-zero size. That leads to space waste.

The patch explicitly sets the size of P2P bridge BARs to zero in
case that resource reassignment is expected with PCI probe flag
PCI_REASSIGN_ALL_RSRC. In the result, it will save overall resource
required by the system without waste.

Paul Mackerras 9fb1b36ca1 powerpc: Make sure IPI handlers see data written by IPI senders
We have been observing hangs, both of KVM guest vcpu tasks and more
generally, where a process that is woken doesn't properly wake up and
continue to run, but instead sticks in TASK_WAKING state.  This
happens because the update of rq->wake_list in ttwu_queue_remote()
is not ordered with the update of ipi_message in
smp_muxed_ipi_message_pass(), and the reading of rq->wake_list in
scheduler_ipi() is not ordered with the reading of ipi_message in
smp_ipi_demux().  Thus it is possible for the IPI receiver not to see
the updated rq->wake_list and therefore conclude that there is nothing
for it to do.

In order to make sure that anything done before smp_send_reschedule()
is ordered before anything done in the resulting call to scheduler_ipi(),
this adds barriers in smp_muxed_message_pass() and smp_ipi_demux().
The barrier in smp_muxed_message_pass() is a full barrier to ensure that
there is a full ordering between the smp_send_reschedule() caller and
scheduler_ipi().  In smp_ipi_demux(), we use xchg() rather than
xchg_local() because xchg() includes release and acquire barriers.
Using xchg() rather than xchg_local() makes sense given that
ipi_message is not just accessed locally.

This moves the barrier between setting the message and calling the
cause_ipi() function into the individual cause_ipi implementations.
Most of them -- those that used outb, out_8 or similar -- already had
a full barrier because out_8 etc. include a sync before the MMIO
store.  This adds an explicit barrier in the two remaining cases.

These changes made no measurable difference to the speed of IPIs as
measured using a simple ping-pong latency test across two CPUs on
different cores of a POWER7 machine.

The analysis of the reason why processes were not waking up properly
is due to Milton Miller.
