2011-02-07powerpc: Fix hcall tracepoint recursionAnton Blanchard
Spinlocks on shared processor partitions use H_YIELD to notify the hypervisor we are waiting on another virtual CPU. Unfortunately this means the hcall tracepoints can recurse. The patch below adds a percpu depth and checks it on both the entry and exit hcall tracepoints.

2010-11-29powerpc/pseries: Add kernel parameter to disable batched hcallsWill Schmidt
This introduces a pair of kernel parameters that can be used to disable the MULTITCE and BULK_REMOVE h-calls. By default, those hcalls are enabled, active, and good for throughput and performance. The ability to disable them will be useful for some of the PREEMPT_RT related investigation and work occurring on Power.

2010-09-02powerpc: Account time using timebase rather than PURRPaul Mackerras
Currently, when CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING is enabled, we use the PURR register for measuring the user and system time used by processes, as well as other related times such as hardirq and softirq times. This turns out to be quite confusing for users because it means that a program will often be measured as taking less time when run on a multi-threaded processor (SMT2 or SMT4 mode) than it does when run on a single-threaded processor (ST mode), even though the program takes longer to finish. The discrepancy is accounted for as stolen time, which is also confusing, particularly when there are no other partitions running. This changes the accounting to use the timebase instead, meaning that the reported user and system times are the actual number of real-time seconds that the program was executing on the processor thread, regardless of which SMT mode the processor is in. Thus a program will generally show greater user and system times when run on a multi-threaded processor than on a single-threaded processor. On pSeries systems on POWER5 or later processors, we measure the stolen time (time when this partition wasn't running) using the hypervisor dispatch trace log. We check for new entries in the log on every entry from user mode and on every transition from kernel process context to soft or hard IRQ context (i.e. when account_system_vtime() gets called). So that we can correctly distinguish time stolen from user time and time stolen from system time, without having to check the log on every exit to user mode, we store separate timestamps for exit to user mode and entry from user mode. On systems that have a SPURR (POWER6 and POWER7), we read the SPURR in account_system_vtime() (as before), and then apportion the SPURR ticks since the last time we read it between scaled user time and scaled system time according to the relative proportions of user time and system time over the same interval. This avoids having to read the SPURR on every kernel entry and exit. On systems that have PURR but not SPURR (i.e., POWER5), we do the same using the PURR rather than the SPURR. This disables the DTL user interface in /sys/debug/kernel/powerpc/dtl for now since it conflicts with the use of the dispatch trace log by the time accounting code.

2010-09-02powerpc: Abstract indexing of lppaca structsPaul Mackerras
Currently we have the lppaca structs as a simple array of NR_CPUS entries, taking up space in the data section of the kernel image. In future we would like to allocate them dynamically, so this abstracts out the accesses to the array, making it easier to change how we locate the lppaca for a given cpu in future. Specifically, lppaca[cpu] changes to lppaca_of(cpu). Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>
2010-05-21powerpc/kexec: Speedup kexec hash PTE tear downMichael Neuling
Currently for kexec the PTE tear down on 1TB segment systems normally requires 3 hcalls for each PTE removal. On a machine with 32GB of memory it can take around a minute to remove all the PTEs. This optimises the path so that we only remove PTEs that are valid. It also uses the read 4 PTEs at once HCALL. For the common case where a PTEs is invalid in a 1TB segment, this turns the 3 HCALLs per PTE down to 1 HCALL per 4 PTEs. This gives an > 10x speedup in kexec times on PHYP, taking a 32GB machine from around 1 minute down to a few seconds.

2009-05-21powerpc/pseries: CMO unused page hintingRobert Jennings
Adds support for the "unused" page hint which can be used in shared memory partitions to flag pages not in use, which will then be stolen before active pages by the hypervisor when memory needs to be moved to LPARs in need of additional memory. Failure to mark pages as 'unused' makes the LPAR slower to give up unused memory to other partitions. This adds the kernel parameter 'cmo_free_hint' to disable this functionality.

It is okay for both _PAGE_GUARDED and _PAGE_COHERENT (G and M) to be set in the same pte. In fact, even if that were not the case, there doesn't seem to be any place where G is set without also setting I (_PAGE_NO_CACHE), so the test for I is sufficient as a condition to clear _PAGE_COHERENT when filling the hash table.

2008-04-24[POWERPC] Register udbg console early on pseries LPARMichael Ellerman
On pseries LPAR we can call the udbg routines, and the udbg console very early. So mark the udbg console as safe to call early in boot, and register the udbg console as soon as the udbg routines are hooked up. This allows platforms/pseries code to use printk() and pr_debug() rather than needing to call udbg_printf() directly for early debugging. This is nice because a) it's standard, b) it goes via the printk buffer, and c) you can get printk time stamps.

2008-04-17[POWERPC] Always add preferred consoles in platforms/pseries/lpar.cMichael Ellerman
There is logic in platforms/peries/lpars.c which checks if the user has specified a console on the command line, and refrains from adding a preferred console entry for the hvc/hvsi console if they have. This trips up if you use "netconsole=foo" on the command line, and has the result that you get _only_ the netconsole, because the hvc device is never added as a preferred console. Worse still if you get the netconsole configuration wrong somehow, you end up with no console at all. As it turns out we don't need to worry about checking the command line. If the user has specified "console=foo", then foo will be set as the preferred console when the command line is parsed in start_kernel(), much later than the pseries code, and so the latter setting will take effect.

2008-01-15[POWERPC] Fix boot failure on POWER6Paul Mackerras
Commit 473980a99316c0e788bca50996375a2815124ce1 added a call to clear the SLB shadow buffer before registering it. Unfortunately this means that we clear out the entries that slb_initialize has previously set in there. On POWER6, the hypervisor uses the SLB shadow buffer when doing partition switches, and that means that after the next partition switch, each non-boot CPU has no SLB entries to map the kernel text and data, which causes it to crash. This fixes it by reverting most of 473980a9 and instead clearing the 3rd entry explicitly in slb_initialize. This fixes the problem that 473980a9 was trying to solve, but without breaking POWER6.

2008-01-11[POWERPC] Fix CPU hotplug when using the SLB shadow bufferMichael Neuling
Before we register the SLB shadow buffer, we need to invalidate the entries in the buffer, otherwise we can end up stale entries from when we previously offlined the CPU. This does this invalidate as well as unregistering the buffer with PHYP before we offline the cpu. Tested and fixes crashes seen on 970MP (thanks to tonyb) and POWER5.

2007-10-12[POWERPC] Use 1TB segmentsPaul Mackerras
This makes the kernel use 1TB segments for all kernel mappings and for user addresses of 1TB and above, on machines which support them (currently POWER5+, POWER6 and PA6T). We detect that the machine supports 1TB segments by looking at the ibm,processor-segment-sizes property in the device tree. We don't currently use 1TB segments for user addresses < 1T, since that would effectively prevent 32-bit processes from using huge pages unless we also had a way to revert to using 256MB segments. That would be possible but would involve extra complications (such as keeping track of which segment size was used when HPTEs were inserted) and is not addressed here.

2007-06-25[POWERPC] Fix Kexec/Kdump for power6Sachin P. Sant
On Power machines supporting VRMA, Kexec/Kdump does not work. VRMA (virtual real-mode area) means that accesses with IR/DR = 0 (i.e. the MMU "off") actually still go through the hash table, using entries put there by the hypervisor. This means that when we clear out the hash table on kexec, we need to make sure these entries are left untouched. This also adds plpar_pte_read_raw() on the lines of plpar_pte_remove_raw().
