Not all user space application is ready to handle wide addresses. It's
known that at least some JIT compilers use higher bits in pointers to
encode their information. It collides with valid pointers with 512TB
addresses and leads to crashes.
To mitigate this, we are not going to allocate virtual address space
above 128TB by default.
But userspace can ask for allocation from full address space by
specifying hint address (with or without MAP_FIXED) above 128TB.
If hint address set above 128TB, but MAP_FIXED is not specified, we try
to look for unmapped area by specified address. If it's already
occupied, we look for unmapped area in *full* address space, rather than
from 128TB window.
This approach helps to easily make application's memory allocator aware
about large address space without manually tracking allocated virtual
address space.
This is going to be a per mmap decision. ie, we can have some mmaps with
larger addresses and other that do not.
A sample memory layout looks like:

We plan to use jump label for cpu_has_feature(). In order to implement
this we need to include the linux/jump_label.h in asm/cputable.h.
Unfortunately if we do that it leads to an include loop. The root of the
problem seems to be that reg.h needs cputable.h (for CPU_FTRs), and then
cputable.h via jump_label.h eventually pulls in hw_irq.h which needs
reg.h (for MSR_EE).
So move cpu_has_feature() to a separate file on its own.

The generic Linux framework to power off the machine is a function pointer
called pm_power_off. The trick about this pointer is that device drivers can
potentially implement it rather than board files.
Today on powerpc we set pm_power_off to invoke our generic full machine power
off logic which then calls ppc_md.power_off to invoke machine specific power
off.
However, when we want to add a power off GPIO via the "gpio-poweroff" driver,
this card house falls apart. That driver only registers itself if pm_power_off
is NULL to ensure it doesn't override board specific logic. However, since we
always set pm_power_off to the generic power off logic (which will just not
power off the machine if no ppc_md.power_off call is implemented), we can't
implement power off via the generic GPIO power off driver.
To fix this up, let's get rid of the ppc_md.power_off logic and just always use
pm_power_off as was intended. Then individual drivers such as the GPIO power off
driver can implement power off logic via that function pointer.
With this patch set applied and a few patches on top of QEMU that implement a
power off GPIO on the virt e500 machine, I can successfully turn off my virtual
machine after halt.

The general idea is that each core will release all of its
threads into the secondary thread startup code, which will
eventually wait in the secondary core holding area, for the
appropriate bit in the PACA to be set. The kick_cpu function
pointer will set that bit in the PACA, and thus "release"
the core/thread to boot. We also need to do a few things that

Unfortunatley Linux doesn't check this property and will put the bad CPU in the

2. Make boot parameter 'booke_wdt_period' effective.
currently, when driver is loaded, default timeout is always
being used in stead of booke_wdt_period.
3. Wrap up the watchdog timeout in device struct and clean up

Currently, the code in setup-common.c for powerpc assumes that all
clock rates are same in a smp system. This value is cached in the
variable named ppc_proc_freq and is the value that is reported in
/proc/cpuinfo.
However on the PowerNV platform, the clock rate is same only across
the threads of the same core. Hence the value that is reported in
/proc/cpuinfo is incorrect on PowerNV platforms. We need a better way
to query and report the correct value of the processor clock in
/proc/cpuinfo.
The patch achieves this by creating a machdep_call named
get_proc_freq() which is expected to returns the frequency in Hz. The
code in show_cpuinfo() can invoke this method to display the correct
clock rate on platforms that have implemented this method. On the
other powerpc platforms it can use the value cached in ppc_proc_freq.

This adds support for KVM running on 64-bit Book 3S processors,
specifically POWER7, in hypervisor mode. Using hypervisor mode means
that the guest can use the processor's supervisor mode. That means
that the guest can execute privileged instructions and access privileged
registers itself without trapping to the host. This gives excellent
performance, but does mean that KVM cannot emulate a processor
architecture other than the one that the hardware implements.
This code assumes that the guest is running paravirtualized using the
PAPR (Power Architecture Platform Requirements) interface, which is the
interface that IBM's PowerVM hypervisor uses. That means that existing
Linux distributions that run on IBM pSeries machines will also run
under KVM without modification. In order to communicate the PAPR
hypercalls to qemu, this adds a new KVM_EXIT_PAPR_HCALL exit code
to include/linux/kvm.h.
Currently the choice between book3s_hv support and book3s_pr support
(i.e. the existing code, which runs the guest in user mode) has to be
made at kernel configuration time, so a given kernel binary can only
do one or the other.
This new book3s_hv code doesn't support MMIO emulation at present.
Since we are running paravirtualized guests, this isn't a serious
restriction.
With the guest running in supervisor mode, most exceptions go straight
to the guest. We will never get data or instruction storage or segment
interrupts, alignment interrupts, decrementer interrupts, program
interrupts, single-step interrupts, etc., coming to the hypervisor from
the guest. Therefore this introduces a new KVMTEST_NONHV macro for the
exception entry path so that we don't have to do the KVM test on entry
to those exception handlers.
We do however get hypervisor decrementer, hypervisor data storage,
hypervisor instruction storage, and hypervisor emulation assist
interrupts, so we have to handle those.
In hypervisor mode, real-mode accesses can access all of RAM, not just
a limited amount. Therefore we put all the guest state in the vcpu.arch
and use the shadow_vcpu in the PACA only for temporary scratch space.
We allocate the vcpu with kzalloc rather than vzalloc, and we don't use
anything in the kvmppc_vcpu_book3s struct, so we don't allocate it.
We don't have a shared page with the guest, but we still need a
kvm_vcpu_arch_shared struct to store the values of various registers,
so we include one in the vcpu_arch struct.
The POWER7 processor has a restriction that all threads in a core have
to be in the same partition. MMU-on kernel code counts as a partition
(partition 0), so we have to do a partition switch on every entry to and
exit from the guest. At present we require the host and guest to run
in single-thread mode because of this hardware restriction.
This code allocates a hashed page table for the guest and initializes
it with HPTEs for the guest's Virtual Real Memory Area (VRMA). We
require that the guest memory is allocated using 16MB huge pages, in
order to simplify the low-level memory management. This also means that
we can get away without tracking paging activity in the host for now,
since huge pages can't be paged or swapped.
This also adds a few new exports needed by the book3s_hv code.

We have a long standing issues with platform devices not have a valid
dma_mask pointer. This hasn't been an issue to date as no platform
device has tried to set its dma_mask value to a non-default value.

[See http://lists.ozlabs.org/pipermail/linuxppc-dev/2010-October/086424.html
and followups. Part of the commit message is directly copied from that.]
Commit 540c6c392f tries to find i8042 IRQs in
the device-tree but doesn't fall back to the old hardcoded 1 and 12 in all
failure cases.
Specifically, the case where the device-tree contains nothing matching
pnpPNP,303 or pnpPNP,f03 doesn't seem to be handled well. It sort of falls
through to the old code, but leaves the IRQs set to 0.

c1854e0072 (powerpc: Set nr_cpu_ids early
and use it to free PACAs) copied the formerly static setup_nr_cpu_ids
from init/main.c but 34db18a054 (smp:
move smp setup functions to kernel/smp.c) moved it to kernel/smp.c
with a declaration in include/linux/smp.h, so we can call it instead of
replicating it.

We should not set cpus above nr_cpu_ids to possible. While we
will trigger a warning with CONFIG_CPUMASK_DEBUG, even then the mask
initializers will set the bits beyond what the iterators check and cause
nr_cpu_ids to increase.
Respecting nr_cpu_ids during setup will allow us to use it in our initial
paca allocation. It can be reduced from NR_CPUS by the existing early param
nr_cpus=, which was added in 2b633e3fac (smp:
Use nr_cpus= to set nr_cpu_ids early). We already call parse_early_parms
between finding the command line and allocating the pacas.

Adapt new API.
Almost change is trivial. Most important change is the below line
because we plan to change task->cpus_allowed implementation.
- ctx->cpus_allowed = current->cpus_allowed;
