      [POWERPC] Hotplug memory remove notifications for powerpc · 57b53926
      Badari Pulavarty authored
      Hotplug memory remove notifier for 64-bit powerpc.  This gets invoked
      by writing to /proc/ppc64/ofdt the string "remove_node " followed by
      the firmware device tree pathname of the node that needs to be removed.
      
      In response, this adjusts the sections and removes sysfs entries by
      calling __remove_pages().  Then it calls arch-specific code to get rid
      of the hardware MMU mappings for the section of memory.

      [POWERPC] windfarm: Add PowerMac 12,1 support · 80ff974d
      Étienne Bersac authored
      This implements a new driver named windfarm_pm121, which drives the
      fans on PowerMac 12,1 machines : iMac G5 iSight (rev C) 17" and
      20".  It's based on the windfarm_pm81 driver from Benjamin
      Herrenschmidt.
      
      This includes fixes from David Woodhouse correcting the names of some
      of the sensors.

      [POWERPC] Fix building of pmac32 when CONFIG_NVRAM=m · 21e38dfe
      Tony Breeds authored
      Kamalesh Babulal (kamalesh@linux.vnet.ibm.com) reports that CONFIG_NVRAM=m
      is valid in terms of Kconfig but fails to build with:
        Building modules, stage 2.
        MODPOST 1401 modules
      ERROR: "pmac_newworld" [arch/powerpc/platforms/powermac/nvram.ko] undefined!
      ERROR: "__alloc_bootmem" [arch/powerpc/platforms/powermac/nvram.ko] undefined!
      make[1]: *** [__modpost] Error
      
      The arch/powerpc/platforms/powermac/nvram.c code really needs to be
      builtin, but as its compilation is dependent on a generic Kconfig
      symbol we force nvram.c to be builtin if CONFIG_NVRAM is 'y' or 'm'.

      [POWERPC] Add IRQSTACKS support on ppc32 · 85218827
      Kumar Gala authored
      This makes it possible to use separate stacks for hard and soft IRQs
      on 32-bit powerpc as well as on 64-bit.  The code for 32-bit is just
      the 32-bit analog of the 64-bit code.
      
      * Added allocation and initialization of the irq stacks.  We limit the
        stacks to be in lowmem for ppc32.
      * Implemented ppc32 versions of call_do_softirq() and call_handle_irq()
        to switch the stack pointers
      * Reworked how we do stack overflow detection.  We now keep around the
        limit of the stack in the thread_struct and compare against the limit
        to see if we've overflowed.  We can now use this on ppc64 if desired.
      
      [ paulus@samba.org: Fixed bug on 6xx where we need to reload r9 with the
        thread_info pointer. ]

      [POWERPC] Use __always_inline for xchg* and cmpxchg* · dd18434f
      Paul Mackerras authored
      This changes the definitions of the xchg and cmpxchg families of
      functions in include/asm-powerpc/system.h to be marked __always_inline
      rather than __inline__.  The reason for doing this is that we rely on
      the compiler inlining them in order to eliminate the references to
      __xchg_called_with_bad_pointer and __cmpxchg_called_with_bad_pointer,
      which are deliberately left undefined.  Thus this change will enable
      us to make the inline keyword be just a hint rather than a directive.

      [POWERPC] Add fast little-endian switch system call · 745a14cc
      Paul Mackerras authored
      This adds a system call on 64-bit platforms for switching between
      little-endian and big-endian modes that is much faster than doing a
      prctl call.  This system call is handled as a special case right at
      the start of the system call entry code, and because it is a special
      case, it uses a system call number which is out of the range of
      normal system calls, namely 0x1ebe.
      
      Measurements with lmbench on a 4.2GHz POWER6 showed no measurable
      change in the speed of normal system calls with this patch.
      
      Switching endianness with this new system call takes around 60ns on a
      4.2GHz POWER6, compared with around 300ns to switch endian mode with a
      prctl.  This can provide a significant performance advantage for
      emulators for little-endian architectures that want to switch between
      big-endian and little-endian mode frequently, e.g. because they are
      generating instructions sequences on the fly and they want to run
      those sequences in little-endian mode.
      
      The other thing about this system call is that it doesn't clobber as
      many registers as a normal system call.  It only clobbers r12.
