2012-03-09powerpc: Call do_page_fault() with interrupts offBenjamin Herrenschmidt
We currently turn interrupts back to their previous state before calling do_page_fault(). This can be annoying when debugging as a bad fault will potentially have lost some processor state before getting into the debugger. We also end up calling some generic code with interrupts enabled such as notify_page_fault() with interrupts enabled, which could be unexpected. This changes our code to behave more like other architectures, and make the assembly entry code call into do_page_faults() with interrupts disabled. They are conditionally re-enabled from within do_page_fault() in the same spot x86 does it. While there, add the might_sleep() test in the case of a successful trylock of the mmap semaphore, again like x86. Also fix a bug in the existing assembly where r12 (_MSR) could get clobbered by C calls (the DTL accounting in the exception common macro and DISABLE_INTS) in some cases. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> --- v2. Add the r12 clobber fix
2011-09-20powerpc/32: Pass device tree address as u64 to machine_initScott Wood
u64 is used rather than phys_addr_t to keep things simple, as this is called from assembly code. Update callers to pass a 64-bit address in r3/r4. Other unused register assignments that were once parameters to machine_init are dropped. For FSL BookE, look up the physical address of the device tree from the effective address passed in r3 by the loader. This is required for situations where memory does not start at zero (due to AMP or IOMMU-less virtualization), and thus the IMA doesn't start at zero, and thus the device tree effective address does not equal the physical address.

2010-11-29powerpc: Remove second definition of STACK_FRAME_OVERHEADStephen Rothwell
Since STACK_FRAME_OVERHEAD is defined in asm/ptrace.h and that is ASSEMBER safe, we can just include that instead of going via asm-offsets.h. Signed-off-by: Stephen Rothwell <sfr@canb.auug.org.au> Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>
2010-08-05memblock: Remove rmo_size, burry it in arch/powerpc where it belongsBenjamin Herrenschmidt
The RMA (RMO is a misnomer) is a concept specific to ppc64 (in fact server ppc64 though I hijack it on embedded ppc64 for similar purposes) and represents the area of memory that can be accessed in real mode (aka with MMU off), or on embedded, from the exception vectors (which is bolted in the TLB) which pretty much boils down to the same thing. We take that out of the generic MEMBLOCK data structure and move it into arch/powerpc where it belongs, renaming it to "RMA" while at it.

2009-08-20powerpc: Use names rather than numbers for SPRGs (v2)Benjamin Herrenschmidt
The kernel uses SPRG registers for various purposes, typically in low level assembly code as scratch registers or to hold per-cpu global infos such as the PACA or the current thread_info pointer. We want to be able to easily shuffle the usage of those registers as some implementations have specific constraints realted to some of them, for example, some have userspace readable aliases, etc.. and the current choice isn't always the best. This patch should not change any code generation, and replaces the usage of SPRN_SPRGn everywhere in the kernel with a named replacement and adds documentation next to the definition of the names as to what those are used for on each processor family. The only parts that still use the original numbers are bits of KVM or suspend/resume code that just blindly needs to save/restore all the SPRGs.

2009-04-26powerpc: convert to use __HEAD and HEAD_TEXT macros.Tim Abbott
This has the consequence of changing the section name use for head code from ".text.head" to ".head.text". Since this commit changes all users in the architecture, this change should be harmless.

2008-06-02[POWERPC] 40x/Book-E: Save/restore volatile exception registersKumar Gala
On machines with more than one exception level any system register that might be modified by the "normal" exception level needs to be saved and restored on taking a higher level exception. We already are saving and restoring ESR and DEAR. For critical level add SRR0/1. For debug level add CSRR0/1 and SRR0/1. For machine check level add DSRR0/1, CSRR0/1, and SRR0/1. On FSL Book-E parts we always save/restore the MAS registers for critical, debug, and machine check level exceptions. On 44x we always save/restore the MMUCR. Additionally, we save and restore the ksp_limit since we have to adjust it for each exception level. Signed-off-by: Kumar Gala <galak@kernel.crashing.org> Acked-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
2008-06-02[POWERPC] Move to runtime allocated exception stacksKumar Gala
For the additonal exception levels (critical, debug, machine check) on 40x/book-e we were using "static" allocations of the stack in the associated head.S. Move to a runtime allocation to make the code a bit easier to read as we mimic how we handle IRQ stacks. Its also a bit easier to setup the stack with a "dummy" thread_info in C code.

2007-10-11[POWERPC] Use PAGE_OFFSET to tell if an address is user/kernel in SW TLB ↵Kumar Gala
handlers Move to using PAGE_OFFSET instead of TASK_SIZE or KERNELBASE value on 6xx/40x/44x/fsl-booke to determine if the faulting address is a kernel or user space address. This mimics how the macro is_kernel_addr() works. Signed-off-by: Kumar Gala <galak@kernel.crashing.org>
