34845636a1 procfs: do not confuse jiffies with cputime64_t
Commit 2a95ea6c0d ("procfs: do not overflow get_{idle,iowait}_time
for nohz") did not take into account that one some architectures jiffies
and cputime use different units.

This causes get_idle_time() to return numbers in the wrong units, making
the idle time fields in /proc/stat wrong.

Instead of converting the usec value returned by
get_cpu_{idle,iowait}_time_us to units of jiffies, use the new function
usecs_to_cputime64 to convert it to the correct unit of cputime64_t.

8a25a2fd12 cpu: convert 'cpu' and 'machinecheck' sysdev_class to a regular subsystem
This moves the 'cpu sysdev_class' over to a regular 'cpu' subsystem
and converts the devices to regular devices. The sysdev drivers are
implemented as subsystem interfaces now.

After all sysdev classes are ported to regular driver core entities, the
sysdev implementation will be entirely removed from the kernel.

Userspace relies on events and generic sysfs subsystem infrastructure
from sysdev devices, which are made available with this conversion.

368ff8f14d powerpc: Define virtual-physical translations for RELOCATABLE
We find the runtime address of _stext and relocate ourselves based
on the following calculation.

	virtual_base = ALIGN(KERNELBASE,KERNEL_TLB_PIN_SIZE) +
			MODULO(_stext.run,KERNEL_TLB_PIN_SIZE)

relocate() is called with the Effective Virtual Base Address (as
shown below)

Page        |-----------|------------|
Boundary    |           |            |

On BookE, we need __va() & __pa() early in the boot process to access
the device tree.

Currently this has been defined as :

#define __va(x) ((void *)(unsigned long)((phys_addr_t)(x) -
						PHYSICAL_START + KERNELBASE)
where:
 PHYSICAL_START is kernstart_addr - a variable updated at runtime.
 KERNELBASE	is the compile time Virtual base address of kernel.

This won't work for us, as kernstart_addr is dynamic and will yield different
results for __va()/__pa() for same mapping.

e.g.,

Let the kernel be loaded at 64MB and KERNELBASE be 0xc0000000 (same as
PAGE_OFFSET).

In this case, we would be mapping 0 to 0xc0000000, and kernstart_addr = 64M

Now __va(1MB) = (0x100000) - (0x4000000) + 0xc0000000
		= 0xbc100000 , which is wrong.

it should be : 0xc0000000 + 0x100000 = 0xc0100000

On platforms which support AMP, like PPC_47x (based on 44x), the kernel
could be loaded at highmem. Hence we cannot always depend on the compile
time constants for mapping.

Here are the possible solutions:

1) Update kernstart_addr(PHSYICAL_START) to match the Physical address of
compile time KERNELBASE value, instead of the actual Physical_Address(_stext).

The disadvantage is that we may break other users of PHYSICAL_START. They
could be replaced with __pa(_stext).

2) Redefine __va() & __pa() with relocation offset

#ifdef	CONFIG_RELOCATABLE_PPC32
#define __va(x) ((void *)(unsigned long)((phys_addr_t)(x) - PHYSICAL_START + (KERNELBASE + RELOC_OFFSET)))
#define __pa(x) ((unsigned long)(x) + PHYSICAL_START - (KERNELBASE + RELOC_OFFSET))
#endif

where, RELOC_OFFSET could be

  a) A variable, say relocation_offset (like kernstart_addr), updated
     at boot time. This impacts performance, as we have to load an additional
     variable from memory.

		OR

  b) #define RELOC_OFFSET ((PHYSICAL_START & PPC_PIN_SIZE_OFFSET_MASK) - \
                      (KERNELBASE & PPC_PIN_SIZE_OFFSET_MASK))

   This introduces more calculations for doing the translation.

3) Redefine __va() & __pa() with a new variable

i.e,

#define __va(x) ((void *)(unsigned long)((phys_addr_t)(x) + VIRT_PHYS_OFFSET))

where VIRT_PHYS_OFFSET :

#ifdef CONFIG_RELOCATABLE_PPC32
#define VIRT_PHYS_OFFSET virt_phys_offset
#else
#define VIRT_PHYS_OFFSET (KERNELBASE - PHYSICAL_START)
#endif /* CONFIG_RELOCATABLE_PPC32 */

where virt_phy_offset is updated at runtime to :

	Effective KERNELBASE - kernstart_addr.

Taking our example, above:

virt_phys_offset = effective_kernelstart_vaddr - kernstart_addr
		 = 0xc0400000 - 0x400000
		 = 0xc0000000
	and

	__va(0x100000) = 0xc0000000 + 0x100000 = 0xc0100000
	 which is what we want.

I have implemented (3) in the following patch which has same cost of
operation as the existing one.

I have tested the patches on 440x platforms only. However this should
work fine for PPC_47x also, as we only depend on the runtime address
and the current TLB XLAT entry for the startup code, which is available
in r25. I don't have access to a 47x board yet. So, it would be great if
somebody could test this on 47x.

0f890c8d20 powerpc: Rename mapping based RELOCATABLE to DYNAMIC_MEMSTART for BookE
The current implementation of CONFIG_RELOCATABLE in BookE is based
on mapping the page aligned kernel load address to KERNELBASE. This
approach however is not enough for platforms, where the TLB page size
is large (e.g, 256M on 44x). So we are renaming the RELOCATABLE used
currently in BookE to DYNAMIC_MEMSTART to reflect the actual method.

The CONFIG_RELOCATABLE for PPC32(BookE) based on processing of the
dynamic relocations will be introduced in the later in the patch series.

This change would allow the use of the old method of RELOCATABLE for
platforms which can afford to enforce the page alignment (platforms with
smaller TLB size).

Changes since v3:

* Introduced a new config, NONSTATIC_KERNEL, to denote a kernel which is
  either a RELOCATABLE or DYNAMIC_MEMSTART(Suggested by: Josh Boyer)

Commit d57af9b (taskstats: use real microsecond granularity for CPU times)
renamed msecs_to_cputime to usecs_to_cputime, but failed to update all

displayed in /proc/stat (the only user of usecs_to_cputime so far).

This also renames __cputime_msec_factor to __cputime_usec_factor, adapting
its value and using it directly in cputime_to_usecs instead of doing two
multiplications.

2c9c6ce019 powerpc: Add __SANE_USERSPACE_TYPES__ to asm/types.h for LL64
PPC64 uses long long for u64 in the kernel, but powerpc's asm/types.h
prevents 64-bit userland from seeing this definition, instead defaulting
to u64 == long in userspace.  Some user programs (e.g. kvmtool) may actually
want LL64, so this patch adds a check for __SANE_USERSPACE_TYPES__ so that,
if defined, int-ll64.h is included instead.

a66086b819 powerpc: POWER7 optimised copy_to_user/copy_from_user using VMX
Implement a POWER7 optimised copy_to_user/copy_from_user using VMX.
For large aligned copies this new loop is over 10% faster, and for
large unaligned copies it is over 200% faster.

If we take a fault we fall back to the old version, this keeps
things relatively simple and easy to verify.

On POWER7 unaligned stores rarely slow down - they only flush when
a store crosses a 4KB page boundary. Furthermore this flush is
handled completely in hardware and should be 20-30 cycles.

Unaligned loads on the other hand flush much more often - whenever
crossing a 128 byte cache line, or a 32 byte sector if either sector
is an L1 miss.

Considering this information we really want to get the loads aligned
and not worry about the alignment of the stores. Microbenchmarks
confirm that this approach is much faster than the current unaligned
copy loop that uses shifts and rotates to ensure both loads and
stores are aligned.

We also want to try and do the stores in cacheline aligned, cacheline
sized chunks. If the store queue is unable to merge an entire
cacheline of stores then the L2 cache will have to do a
read/modify/write. Even worse, we will serialise this with the stores
in the next iteration of the copy loop since both iterations hit
the same cacheline.

Based on this, the new loop does the following things:

1 - 127 bytes
Get the source 8 byte aligned and use 8 byte loads and stores. Pretty
boring and similar to how the current loop works.

128 - 4095 bytes
Get the source 8 byte aligned and use 8 byte loads and stores,
1 cacheline at a time. We aren't doing the stores in cacheline
aligned chunks so we will potentially serialise once per cacheline.
Even so it is much better than the loop we have today.

4096 - bytes
If both source and destination have the same alignment get them both
16 byte aligned, then get the destination cacheline aligned. Do
cacheline sized loads and stores using VMX.

If source and destination do not have the same alignment, we get the
destination cacheline aligned, and use permute to do aligned loads.

In both cases the VMX loop should be optimal - we always do aligned
loads and stores and are always doing stores in cacheline aligned,
cacheline sized chunks.

To be able to use VMX we must be careful about interrupts and
sleeping. We don't use the VMX loop when in an interrupt (which should
be rare anyway) and we wrap the VMX loop in disable/enable_pagefault
and fall back to the existing copy_tofrom_user loop if we do need to
sleep.

The VMX breakpoint of 4096 bytes was chosen using this microbenchmark:

http://ozlabs.org/~anton/junkcode/copy_to_user.c

Since we are using VMX and there is a cost to saving and restoring
the user VMX state there are two broad cases we need to benchmark:

- Best case - userspace never uses VMX

- Worst case - userspace always uses VMX

In reality a userspace process will sit somewhere between these two
extremes. Since we need to test both aligned and unaligned copies we
end up with 4 combinations. The point at which the VMX loop begins to
win is:

0% VMX
aligned		2048 bytes
unaligned	2048 bytes

100% VMX
aligned		16384 bytes
unaligned	8192 bytes

Considering this is a microbenchmark, the data is hot in cache and
the VMX loop has better store queue merging properties we set the
breakpoint to 4096 bytes, a little below the unaligned breakpoints.

Some future optimisations we can look at:

- Looking at the perf data, a significant part of the cost when a
  task is always using VMX is the extra exception we take to restore
  the VMX state. As such we should do something similar to the x86
  optimisation that restores FPU state for heavy users. ie:

        /*
         * If the task has used fpu the last 5 timeslices, just do a full
         * restore of the math state immediately to avoid the trap; the
         * chances of needing FPU soon are obviously high now
         */
        preload_fpu = tsk_used_math(next_p) && next_p->fpu_counter > 5;

  and

        /*
         * fpu_counter contains the number of consecutive context switches
         * that the FPU is used. If this is over a threshold, the lazy fpu
         * saving becomes unlazy to save the trap. This is an unsigned char
         * so that after 256 times the counter wraps and the behavior turns
         * lazy again; this to deal with bursty apps that only use FPU for
         * a short time
         */

- We could create a paca bit to mirror the VMX enabled MSR bit and check
  that first, avoiding multiple calls to calling enable_kernel_altivec.
  That should help with iovec based system calls like readv.

- We could have two VMX breakpoints, one for when we know the user VMX
  state is loaded into the registers and one when it isn't. This could
  be a second bit in the paca so we can calculate the break points quickly.

- One suggestion from Ben was to save and restore the VSX registers
  we use inline instead of using enable_kernel_altivec.

1c16d242aa memblock: Fix include breakages caused by 24aa07882b
24aa07882b (memblock, x86: Replace memblock_x86_reserve/free_range()
with generic ones) removed arch/x86/include/asm/memblock.h and dropped
its inclusion from include/linux/memblock.h which breaks other
architectures which depended on the generic memblock.h pulling in the
arch specific one.

However, the proper fix isn't adding back the asm inclusion.  memblock
doesn't have any arch dependent part and doesn't need arch specific
header file and asm/memblock.h files are either practically empty or
contain mostly unrelated arch specific stuff.

* In microblaze, sh, powerpc, sparc and openrisc, asm/memblock.h is
  either empty or just contains unused MEMBLOCK_DBG() macro.  Remove
  them.

* In arm and unicore32, asm/memblock.h contains arch specific stuff.
  Include it directly from its users.  It might be a good idea to
  rename the header file to avoid confusion.

2fde6d20bb powerpc: Provide a way for KVM to indicate that NV GPR values are lost
This fixes a problem where a CPU thread coming out of nap mode can
think it has valid values in the nonvolatile GPRs (r14 - r31) as saved
away in power7_idle, but in fact the values have been trashed because
the thread was used for KVM in the mean time.  The result is that the
thread crashes because code that called power7_idle (e.g.,
pnv_smp_cpu_kill_self()) goes to use values in registers that have
been trashed.

The bit field in SRR1 that tells whether state was lost only reflects
the most recent nap, which may not have been the nap instruction in
power7_idle.  So we need an extra PACA field to indicate that state
has been lost even if SRR1 indicates that the most recent nap didn't
lose state.  We clear this field when saving the state in power7_idle,
we set it to a non-zero value when we use the thread for KVM, and we
test it in power7_wakeup_noloss.
