      powerpc: Add support for context switching the TAR register · 2468dcf6
      Ian Munsie authored
      This patch adds support for enabling and context switching the Target
      Address Register in Power8. The TAR is a new special purpose register
      that can be used for computed branches with the bctar[l] (branch
      conditional to TAR) instruction in the same manner as the count and link
      registers.

      pseries/iommu: Remove DDW on kexec · 14b6f00f

      pseries/iommu: remove DDW on kexec
      
      We currently insert a property in the device-tree when we successfully
      configure DDW for a given slot. This was meant to be an optimization to
      speed up kexec/kdump, so that we don't need to make the RTAS calls again
      to re-configured DDW in the new kernel.
      
      However, we end up tripping a plpar_tce_stuff failure on kexec/kdump
      because we unconditionally parse the ibm,dma-window property for the
      node at bus/dev setup time. This property contains the 32-bit DMA window
      LIOBN, which is distinct from the DDW window's. We pass that LIOBN (via
      iommu_table_init -> iommu_table_clear -> tce_free ->
      tce_freemulti_pSeriesLP) to plpar_tce_stuff, which fails because that
      32-bit window is no longer present after
      25ebc45b ("powerpc/pseries/iommu: remove
      default window before attempting DDW manipulation").
      
      I believe the simplest, easiest-to-maintain fix is to just change our
      initcall to, rather than detecting and updating the new kernel's DDW
      knowledge, just remove all DDW configurations. When the drivers
      re-initialize, we will set everything back up as it was before.

      powerpc: fix ics_rtas_init and start_secondary section mismatch · 174ea471
      Daniel Borkmann authored
      It seems, we're fine with just annotating the two functions.
      Thus, this fixes the following build warnings on ppc64:
      
      WARNING: arch/powerpc/sysdev/xics/built-in.o(.text+0x1664):
      The function .ics_rtas_init() references
      the function __init .xics_register_ics().
      This is often because .ics_rtas_init lacks a __init
      annotation or the annotation of .xics_register_ics is wrong.

      powerpc: Max next_tb to prevent from replaying timer interrupt · 689dfa89
      Tiejun Chen authored
      With lazy interrupt, we always call __check_irq_replaysome with
      decrementers_next_tb to check if we need to replay timer interrupt.
      So in hotplug case we also need to set decrementers_next_tb as MAX
      to make sure __check_irq_replay don't replay timer interrupt
      when return as we expect, otherwise we'll trap here infinitely.

      powerpc/book3e: Disable interrupt after preempt_schedule_irq · 572177d7
      Tiejun Chen authored
      In preempt case current arch_local_irq_restore() from
      preempt_schedule_irq() may enable hard interrupt but we really
      should disable interrupts when we return from the interrupt,
      and so that we don't get interrupted after loading SRR0/1.

      powerpc/oprofile: Fix error in oprofile power7_marked_instr_event() function · 46ed7a76
      Carl E. Love authored
      The calculation for the left shift of the mask OPROFILE_PM_PMCSEL_MSK has an
      error.  The calculation is should be to shift left by (max_cntrs - cntr) times
      the width of the pmsel field width.  However, the #define OPROFILE_MAX_PMC_NUM
      was used instead of OPROFILE_PMSEL_FIELD_WIDTH.  This patch fixes the
      calculation.

      powerpc/pasemi: Fix crash on reboot · 72640d88
      Steven Rostedt authored
      commit f96972f2 "kernel/sys.c: call disable_nonboot_cpus() in
      kernel_restart()"
      
      added a call to disable_nonboot_cpus() on kernel_restart(), which tries
      to shutdown all the CPUs except the first one. The issue with the PA
      Semi, is that it does not support CPU hotplug.
      
      When the call is made to __cpu_down(), it calls the notifiers
      CPU_DOWN_PREPARE, and then tries to take the CPU down.
      
      One of the notifiers to the CPU hotplug code, is the cpufreq. The
      DOWN_PREPARE will call __cpufreq_remove_dev() which calls
      cpufreq_driver->exit. The PA Semi exit handler unmaps regions of I/O
      that is used by an interrupt that goes off constantly
      (system_reset_common, but it goes off during normal system operations
      too). I'm not sure exactly what this interrupt does.
      
      Running a simple function trace, you can see it goes off quite a bit:

      When the region is unmapped, the system crashes with:
