c368d921da [POWERPC] Add bootwrapper support for Motorola PrPMC2800 platform
The Motorola PrPMC280 and PrPMC2800 processor modules sit on an F101 or
PrPMC2800 baseboard, respectively.  There are several variants of each
type of processor module which can have different amounts of memory,
amounts of FLASH, cpu frequencies, and an mv64360 or an mv64362.

The bootwrapper code for that platform reads VPD from an I2C EEPROM
to determine the processor module variant.  From the variant, the
amount of memory, etc. is determined and the device tree is updated
accordingly.  If the variant cannot be determined (e.g., corrupted
VPD or a previously unknown variant), the property values already
in the device tree are used.

Also, the firmware for those platforms does not completely configure
the mv64x60 host bridge so that configuration is done here.

Add the device tree source file for the prpmc2800 line of processor PMCs.
Several of the property values are updated by the bootwrapper but sane
defaults have been chosen in case the bootwrapper can't determine the
exact processor board variant.  The defaults should allow the kernel
to boot despite having non-optimal device tree property values.

ae4b3fbc7a [POWERPC] Add bootwrapper support for Marvell/mv64x60 I2C
Some platforms support a variety processor modules with no method of
determining which exact processor module is being used except by
examining Vital Product Data (VPD).  The modules may have different
amounts of memory, clock frequencies, etc. so reading the VPD becomes
necessary to correctly set properties in the device tree before its
passed to the kernel.

Often the VPD is stored in I2C EEPROMs so an I2C driver becomes necessary.
This I2C driver is for the I2C controller that's embedded on the Marvel
mv64x60 line of host bridges.

0f81b11d2a [POWERPC] Add bootwrapper support for Marvell/mv64x60 hostbridge
The mv64x60 host bridge has many windows between its various components
(cpu, system memory, ethernet ctlr, MPSC, DMA ctlr, PCI MEM, PCI I/O).
Unfortunately, the firmware on some of mv64x60-based platforms do not
properly or completely configure those windows (e.g., MPSC->system memory
windows not configured or CPU->PCI MEM space not configured).

So, the missing configuration needs to be done in either the bootwrapper
or in the kernel.  To keep the kernel as clean as possible, it is done
in the bootwrapper.  Note that I/O controller configuration is NOT being
done, its only the windows to allow the I/O controllers and other components
to access memory, etc. that is being done--drivers assume that their
controllers can already access system memory).

Table of routines and the windows they configure:
	mv64x60_config_ctlr_windows()	ENET->System Memory
					MPSC->System Memory
					IDMA->System Memory

	mv64x60_config_pci_windows()	PCI MEM->System Memory
					PCI I/O->Bridge's Registers

	mv64x60_config_cpu2pci_window()	CPU->PCI MEM
					CPU->PCI I/O

916066d591 [POWERPC] Add Makefile rules to wrap dts file in zImage
Add 'zImage.dts' and 'zImage.dts_initrd' build rules that automatically
compile and wrap a dts file from arch/powerpc/boot/dts into the zImage file.
The resulting zImage will be arch/powerpc/boot/zImage.dts.<platform> and
arch/powerpc/boot/zImage.dts_initrd.<platform>, respectively.

Having separate rules allows the user to choose whether to include a device
tree--and which device tree--at build time.  This is useful when one Makefile
target builds a zImage that runs on several platforms except for differing
device trees.  By just setting CONFIG_DEVICE_TREE and running "make zImage.dts"
the exact zImage you want is built without Makefile bloat or manually running
the wrapper script.

The dts file is expected to be arch/powerpc/boot/dts/$(CONFIG_DEVICE_TREE)

e147ec8f18 [POWERPC] Simplify smp_space_timers
Greatly simplify the function smp_space_timers.

The stolen time calculation (per comment within the code) doesn't need the
half-jiffy stagger any more.  There isn't an issue with bouncing off global
locks, so we really shouldn't need any sort of staggering at all.

However, the last_jiffy value still needs to be set.   This removes the
extra stagger logic, and just sets the values.

This change should benefit applications that rely on barrier
synchronization, and will help cut down OS jitter.

Boot tested across the board (G5,power3,power4,power5,970mp blade).

cdc7dbdfe6 [IA64] fix Kprobes reentrancy
In case of reentrance i.e when a probe handler calls a functions which
inturn has a probe, we save a previous kprobe information and just single
step the reentrant probe without calling the actual probe handler.  During
this reentracy period, if an interrupt occurs and if probe happens to
trigger in the inturrupt path, then we were corrupting the previous kprobe(
as we were overriding the previous kprobe info) info their by crashing the
system.  This patch fixes this issues by having a an array of previous
kprobe info struct(with the array size of 2).

This similar technique is not needed on i386 and x86_64 because by default
interrupts are turn off in the break/int3 exception handler.

e1fa2e136f powerpc: fixup hard_irq_disable semantics
This patch renames the raw hard_irq_{enable,disable} into
__hard_irq_{enable,disable} and introduces a higher level hard_irq_disable()
function that can be used by any code to enforce that IRQs are fully disabled,
not only lazy disabled.

The difference with the __ versions is that it will update some per-processor
fields so that the kernel keeps track and properly re-enables them in the next
local_irq_disable();

This prepares powerpc for my next patch that introduces hard_irq_disable()
generically.

c14b84949e uml: iRQ stacks
Add a separate IRQ stack.  This differs from i386 in having the entire
interrupt run on a separate stack rather than starting on the normal kernel
stack and switching over once some preparation has been done.  The underlying
mechanism, is of course, sigaltstack.

Another difference is that interrupts that happen in userspace are handled on
the normal kernel stack.  These cause a wait wakeup instead of a signal
delivery so there is no point in trying to switch stacks for these.  There's
no other stuff on the stack, so there is no extra stack consumption.

This quirk makes it possible to have the entire interrupt run on a separate
stack - process preemption (and calls to schedule()) happens on a normal
kernel stack.  If we enable CONFIG_PREEMPT, this will need to be rethought.

The IRQ stack for CPU 0 is declared in the same way as the initial kernel
stack.  IRQ stacks for other CPUs will be allocated dynamically.

An extra field was added to the thread_info structure.  When the active
thread_info is copied to the IRQ stack, the real_thread field points back to
the original stack.  This makes it easy to tell where to copy the thread_info
struct back to when the interrupt is finished.  It also serves as a marker of
a nested interrupt.  It is NULL for the first interrupt on the stack, and
non-NULL for any nested interrupts.

Care is taken to behave correctly if a second interrupt comes in when the
thread_info structure is being set up or taken down.  I could just disable
interrupts here, but I don't feel like giving up any of the performance gained
by not flipping signals on and off.

If an interrupt comes in during these critical periods, the handler can't run
because it has no idea what shape the stack is in.  So, it sets a bit for its
signal in a global mask and returns.  The outer handler will deal with this
signal itself.

Atomicity is had with xchg.  A nested interrupt that needs to bail out will
xchg its signal mask into pending_mask and repeat in case yet another
interrupt hit at the same time, until the mask stabilizes.

The outermost interrupt will set up the thread_info and xchg a zero into
pending_mask when it is done.  At this point, nested interrupts will look at
->real_thread and see that no setup needs to be done.  They can just continue
normally.

Similar care needs to be taken when exiting the outer handler.  If another
interrupt comes in while it is copying the thread_info, it will drop a bit
into pending_mask.  The outer handler will check this and if it is non-zero,
will loop, set up the stack again, and handle the interrupt.

2ea5bc5e5b uml: tidy IRQ code
Some tidying of the irq code before introducing irq stacks.  Mostly
style fixes, but the timer handler calls the timer code directly
rather than going through the generic sig_handler_common_skas.

e1a79c400a uml: use UM_THREAD_SIZE in userspace code
Now that we have UM_THREAD_SIZE, we can replace the calculations in
user-space code (an earlier patch took care of the kernel side of the
house).

57598fd7b3 uml: remove task_protections
Replaced task_protections with stack_protections since they do the same
thing, and task_protections was misnamed anyway.

This needs THREAD_SIZE, so that's imported via common-offsets.h

Also tidied up the code in the vicinity.

0d4f646816 m32r: fix tme_handler to check _PAGE_PRESENT bit
Fix the tlb-miss handler (tme_handler) to check _PAGE_PRESENT bit
in order to handle file-mapped or swapped-out pages correctly.

This patch is required to fix unexpected page errors for m32r.

43c09ce792 m32r: fix switch_to macro to push/pop frame pointer if needed
This patch fixes a rarely-happened but severe scheduling problem of
the recent m32r kernel of 2.6.17-rc3 or later.

In the following previous m32r patch, the switch_to macro was
modified not to do unnecessary push/pop operations for tuning.
> [PATCH] m32r: update switch_to macro for tuning
> 4127272c38

In this modification, only 'lr' and 'sp' registers are push/pop'ed,
assuming that the m32r kernel is always compiled with
-fomit-frame-pointer option.

However, in 2.6 kernel, kernel/sched.c is irregularly compiled
with -fno-omit-frame-pointer if CONFIG_SCHED_NO_NO_OMIT_FRAME_POINTER
is not defined.

 -- kernel/Makefile --
   :
 ifneq ($(CONFIG_SCHED_NO_NO_OMIT_FRAME_POINTER),y)
 # According to Alan Modra <alan@linuxcare.com.au>, the -fno-omit-frame-pointer is
 # needed for x86 only.  Why this used to be enabled for all architectures is beyond
 # me.  I suspect most platforms don't need this, but until we know that for sure
 # I turn this off for IA-64 only.  Andreas Schwab says it's also needed on m68k
 # to get a correct value for the wait-channel (WCHAN in ps). --davidm
 CFLAGS_sched.o := $(PROFILING) -fno-omit-frame-pointer
 endif
   :
 ---

Therefore, for the recent m32r kernel, we have to push/pop 'fp'
(frame pointer) if CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER is defined or
CONFIG_SCHED_NO_NO_OMIT_FRAME_POINTER is not defined.
