2010-05-21powerpc: Use smt_snooze_delay=-1 to always busy loopAnton Blanchard
Right now if we want to busy loop and not give up any time to the hypervisor we put a very large value into smt_snooze_delay. This is sometimes useful when running a single partition and you want to avoid any latencies due to the hypervisor or CPU power state transitions. While this works, it's a bit ugly - how big a number is enough now we have NO_HZ and can be idle for a very long time. The patch below makes smt_snooze_delay signed, and a negative value means loop forever: echo -1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/smt_snooze_delay This change shouldn't affect the existing userspace tools (eg ppc64_cpu), but I'm cc-ing Nathan just to be sure.

2010-05-21powerpc: Remove check of ibm,smt-snooze-delay OF propertyAnton Blanchard
I'm not sure why we have code for parsing an ibm,smt-snooze-delay OF property. Since we have a smt-snooze-delay= boot option and we can also set it at runtime via sysfs, it should be safe to get rid of this code.

2009-12-09sysfs/cpu: Add probe/release filesNathan Fontenot
Version 3 of this patch is updated with documentation added to Documentation/ABI. There are no changes to any of the C code from v2 of the patch. In order to support kernel DLPAR of CPU resources we need to provide an interface to add (probe) and remove (release) the resource from the system. This patch Creates new generic probe and release sysfs files to facilitate cpu probe/release. The probe/release interface provides for allowing each arch to supply their own routines for implementing the backend of adding and removing cpus to/from the system. This also creates the powerpc specific stubs to handle the arch callouts from writes to the sysfs files. The creation and use of these files is regulated by the CONFIG_ARCH_CPU_PROBE_RELEASE option so that only architectures that need the capability will have the files created.

2009-09-11powerpc: Fix bug where perf_counters breaks oprofilePaul Mackerras
Currently there is a bug where if you use oprofile on a pSeries machine, then use perf_counters, then use oprofile again, oprofile will not work correctly; it will lose the PMU configuration the next time the hypervisor does a partition context switch, and thereafter won't count anything. Maynard Johnson identified the sequence causing the problem: - oprofile setup calls ppc_enable_pmcs(), which calls pseries_lpar_enable_pmcs, which tells the hypervisor that we want to use the PMU, and sets the "PMU in use" flag in the lppaca. This flag tells the hypervisor whether it needs to save and restore the PMU config. - The perf_counter code sets and clears the "PMU in use" flag directly as it context-switches the PMU between tasks, and leaves it clear when it finishes. - oprofile setup, called for a new oprofile run, calls ppc_enable_pmcs, which does nothing because it has already been called. In particular it doesn't set the "PMU in use" flag. This fixes the problem by arranging for ppc_enable_pmcs to always set the "PMU in use" flag. It makes the perf_counter code call ppc_enable_pmcs also rather than calling the lower-level function directly, and removes the setting of the "PMU in use" flag from pseries_lpar_enable_pmcs, since that is now done in its caller. This also removes the declaration of pasemi_enable_pmcs because it isn't defined anywhere.

2009-01-08powerpc: Rewrite sysfs processor cache info codeNathan Lynch
The current code for providing processor cache information in sysfs has the following deficiencies: - several complex functions that are hard to understand - implicit recursion (cache_desc_release -> kobject_put -> cache_desc_release) - explicit recursion (create_cache_index_info) - use of two per-cpu arrays when one would suffice - duplication of work on systems where CPUs share cache Also, when I looked at implementing support for a shared_cpu_map attribute, it was pretty much impossible to handle hotplug without checking every single online CPU's cache_desc list and fixing things up... not that this is a hot path, but it would have introduced O(n^2)-ish behavior during boot. Addressing this involved rethinking the core data structures used, which didn't lend itself to an incremental approach. This implementation maintains a "forest" (potentially more than one tree) of cache objects which reflects the system's cache topology. Cache objects are instantiated as needed as CPUs come online. A per-cpu array is used mainly for sysfs-related bookkeeping; the objects in the array just point to the appropriate points in the forest. This maintains compatibility with the existing code and includes some enhancements: - Implement the shared_cpu_map attribute, which is essential for enabling userspace to discover the system's overall cache topology. - Use cache-block-size properties if cache-line-size is not available. I chose to place this implementation in a new file since it would have roughly doubled the size of sysfs.c, which is already kind of messy.

It contain code to register CPU sysdevs in sysfs and add various properties such as cache topology and raw access by root to performance monitor counters (PMCs). A lot of that can be re-used as is on 32-bits.

2008-07-28powerpc: Show processor cache information in sysfsNathan Lynch
Collect cache information from the OF device tree and display it in the cpu hierarchy in sysfs. This is intended to be compatible at the userspace level with x86's implementation[1], hence some of the funny attribute names. The arrangement of cache info is not immediately intuitive, but (again) it's for compatibility's sake. The cache attributes exposed are: type (Data, Instruction, or Unified) level (1, 2, 3...) size coherency_line_size number_of_sets ways_of_associativity All of these can be derived on platforms that follow the OF PowerPC Processor binding. The code "publishes" only those attributes for which it is able to determine values; attributes for values which cannot be determined are not created at all.

2007-05-09Add suspend-related notifications for CPU hotplugRafael J. Wysocki
Since nonboot CPUs are now disabled after tasks and devices have been frozen and the CPU hotplug infrastructure is used for this purpose, we need special CPU hotplug notifications that will help the CPU-hotplug-aware subsystems distinguish normal CPU hotplug events from CPU hotplug events related to a system-wide suspend or resume operation in progress. This patch introduces such notifications and causes them to be used during suspend and resume transitions. It also changes all of the CPU-hotplug-aware subsystems to take these notifications into consideration (for now they are handled in the same way as the corresponding "normal" ones).

2006-06-27[PATCH] node hotplug: register cpu: remove node structKAMEZAWA Hiroyuki
With Goto-san's patch, we can add new pgdat/node at runtime. I'm now considering node-hot-add with cpu + memory on ACPI. I found acpi container, which describes node, could evaluate cpu before memory. This means cpu-hot-add occurs before memory hot add. In most part, cpu-hot-add doesn't depend on node hot add. But register_cpu(), which creates symbolic link from node to cpu, requires that node should be onlined before register_cpu(). When a node is onlined, its pgdat should be there. This patch-set holds off creating symbolic link from node to cpu until node is onlined. This removes node arguments from register_cpu(). Now, register_cpu() requires 'struct node' as its argument. But the array of struct node is now unified in driver/base/node.c now (By Goto's node hotplug patch). We can get struct node in generic way. So, this argument is not necessary now. This patch also guarantees add cpu under node only when node is onlined. It is necessary for node-hot-add vs. cpu-hot-add patch following this. Moreover, register_cpu calculates cpu->node_id by cpu_to_node() without regard to its 'struct node *root' argument. This patch removes it. Also modify callers of register_cpu()/unregister_cpu, whose args are changed by register-cpu-remove-node-struct patch.

2005-11-10[PATCH] powerpc: Move more ppc64 files with no ppc32 equivalent to powerpcDavid Gibson
This patch moves a bunch more files from arch/ppc64 and include/asm-ppc64 which have no equivalents in ppc32 code into arch/powerpc and include/asm-powerpc. The file affected are: hvcall.h proc_ppc64.c sysfs.c lparcfg.c rtas_pci.c The only changes apart from the move and corresponding Makefile changes are: - #ifndef/#define in includes updated to _ASM_POWERPC_ form - trailing whitespace removed - comments giving full paths removed Built and booted on POWER5 LPAR (ARCH=powerpc and ARCH=ppc64), built for 32-bit powermac (ARCH=powerpc).
