ec59cf710b [POWERPC] Change ppc64_defconfig to use AUTOFS_V4 not V3
Defconfig ppc64 kernels running under late-model distros
may hang in the automounter rc.d script, which seems to be
expecting autofs version 4. This patch uses the newer autofs.

a5715d6dfc [POWERPC] pSeries/kexec: Fix for interrupt distribution
This allows any secondary CPU thread also to become boot cpu for
POWER5.  The patch is required to solve kdump boot issue when the
kdump kernel is booted with parameter "maxcpus=1".  XICS init code
tries to match the current boot cpu id with "reg" property in each CPU
node in the device tree.  But CPU node is created only for primary
thread CPU ids and "reg" property only reflects primary CPU ids.  So
when a kernel is booted on a secondary cpu thread above condition will
never meet and the default distribution server is left as zero.  This
leads to route the interrupts to CPU 0, but which is not online at
this time.

We use ibm,ppc-interrupt-server#s to check for both primary and
secondary CPU ids.  Accordingly default distribution server value is
initialized from "ibm,ppc-interrupt-gserver#s" property.  We loop
through ibm,ppc-interrupt-gserver#s property to find the global
distribution server from the last entry that matches with boot cpuid.

e22ba7e381 [POWERPC] ps3: multiplatform build fixes
A few code paths need to check whether or not they are running
on the PS3's LV1 hypervisor before making hcalls. This introduces
a new firmware feature bit for this, FW_FEATURE_PS3_LV1.

Now when both PS3 and IBM_CELL_BLADE are enabled, but not PSERIES,
FW_FEATURE_PS3_LV1 and FW_FEATURE_LPAR get enabled at compile time,
which is a bug. The same problem can also happen for (PPC_ISERIES &&
!PPC_PSERIES && PPC_SOMETHING_ELSE). In order to solve this, I
introduce a new CONFIG_PPC_NATIVE option that is set when at least
one platform is selected that can run without a hypervisor and then
turns the firmware feature check into a run-time option.

The new cell oprofile support that was recently merged does not
work on hypervisor based platforms like the PS3, therefore make
it depend on PPC_CELL_NATIVE instead of PPC_CELL. This may change
if we get oprofile support for PS3.

Three new platform specific routines are introduced, spu_enumerate_spus(),

type, struct spu_management_ops, to hold function pointers that the platform
setup code is expected to initialize to instances appropriate to that platform.

For the IBM Cell Blade support, I put the hypervisor only resources that were

carrying quite a lot of code around, just to do disassembly in the case
of a crash.

While on large systems it's not an issue, on smaller ones it might be

For a Cell build this saves ~230KB (!), and for pSeries ~195KB.

We still support the 'di' and 'sdi' commands, however they just dump
the instruction in hex.

In order to do disassembly of spu binaries in xmon, we need to abstract
the disassembly function from ppc_inst_dump.

We do this by making the actual disassembly function a function pointer

turn ppc_inst_dump() into generic_inst_dump() and make ppc_inst_dump()
a wrapper which always uses print_insn_powerpc().

Currently we pass the dialect into print_insn_powerpc(), but we always
pass 0 - so just make it a local.

24a24c85d3 [POWERPC] Add a sd command (spu dump) to xmon to dump spu local store
Add a command to xmon to dump the memory of a spu's local store.
This mimics the 'd' command which dumps regular memory, but does
a little hand holding by taking the user supplied address and
finding that offset in the local store for the specified spu.

This makes it easy for example to look at what was executing on a spu:

1:mon> ss
...
Stopped spu 04 (was running)
...
1:mon> sf 4
Dumping spu fields at address c0000000019e0a00:
...
  problem->spu_npc_RW     = 0x228
...
1:mon> sd 4 0x228
d000080080318228 01a00c021cffc408 4020007f217ff488  |........@ ..!...|

Aha, 01a00c02, which is of course rdch $2,$ch24 !

--

Updated to only do the setjmp goo around the spu access, and not
around prdump because it does its own (via mread).

Also the num variable is now common between sf and sd, so you don't
have to keep typing the spu number in if you're repeating commands
on the same spu.

bf1ab978be [POWERPC] coredump: Add SPU elf notes to coredump.
This patch adds SPU elf notes to the coredump. It creates a separate note
for each of /regs, /fpcr, /lslr, /decr, /decr_status, /mem, /signal1,
/signal1_type, /signal2, /signal2_type, /event_mask, /event_status,
/mbox_info, /ibox_info, /wbox_info, /dma_info, /proxydma_info, /object-id.

A new macro, ARCH_HAVE_EXTRA_NOTES, was created for architectures to
specify they have extra elf core notes.

A new macro, ELF_CORE_EXTRA_NOTES_SIZE, was created so the size of the
additional notes could be calculated and added to the notes phdr entry.

A new macro, ELF_CORE_WRITE_EXTRA_NOTES, was created so the new notes
would be written after the existing notes.

The SPU coredump code resides in spufs. Stub functions are provided in the
kernel which are hooked into the spufs code which does the actual work via
register_arch_coredump_calls().

A new set of __spufs_<file>_read/get() functions was provided to allow the
coredump code to read from the spufs files without having to lock the
SPU context for each file read from.
