2013-06-20powerpc/eeh: Make eeh_phb_pe_get() publicGavin Shan
One of the possible cases indicated by P7IOC interrupt is fenced PHB. For that case, we need fetch the PE corresponding to the PHB and disable the PHB and all subordinate PCI buses/devices, recover from the fenced state and eventually enable the whole PHB. We need one function to fetch the PHB PE outside eeh_pe.c and the patch is going to make eeh_phb_pe_get() public for that purpose.

2013-06-20powerpc/tm: Fix return of active 64bit signalsMichael Neuling
Currently we only restore signals which are transactionally suspended but it's possible that the transaction can be restored even when it's active. Most likely this will result in a transactional rollback by the hardware as the transaction will have been doomed by an earlier treclaim. The current code is a legacy of earlier kernel implementations which did software rollback of active transactions in the kernel. That code has now gone but we didn't correctly fix up this part of the signals code which still makes assumptions based on having software rollback. This changes the signal return code to always restore both contexts on 64 bit signal return. It also ensures that the MSR TM bits are properly restored from the signal context which they are not currently.

2013-06-20powerpc/tm: Fix restoration of MSR on 32bit signal returnMichael Neuling
Currently we clear out the MSR TM bits on signal return assuming that the signal should never return to an active transaction. This is bogus as the user may do this. It's most likely the transaction will be doomed due to a treclaim but that's a problem for the HW not the kernel. The current code is a legacy of earlier kernel implementations which did software rollback of active transactions in the kernel. That code has now gone but we didn't correctly fix up this part of the signals code which still makes the assumption that it must be returning to a suspended transaction. This pulls out both MSR TM bits from the user supplied context rather than just setting TM suspend. We pull out only the bits needed to ensure the user can't do anything dangerous to the MSR.

2013-06-20powerpc/tm: Fix 32 bit non-rt signalsMichael Neuling
Currently sys_sigreturn() is TM unaware. Therefore, if we take a 32 bit signal without SIGINFO (non RT) inside a transaction, on signal return we don't restore the signal frame correctly. This checks if the signal frame being restoring is an active transaction, and if so, it copies the additional state to ptregs so it can be restored.

2013-06-20powerpc/tm: Fix writing top half of MSR on 32 bit signalsMichael Neuling
The MSR TM controls are in the top 32 bits of the MSR hence on 32 bit signals, we stick the top half of the MSR in the checkpointed signal context so that the user can access it. Unfortunately, we don't currently write anything to the checkpointed signal context when coming in a from a non transactional process and hence the top MSR bits can contain junk. This updates the 32 bit signal handling code to always write something to the top MSR bits so that users know if the process is transactional or not and the kernel can use it on signal return.

2013-06-20powerpc/pseries: Read/Write oops nvram partition via pstoreAruna Balakrishnaiah
IBM's p series machines provide persistent storage for LPARs through NVRAM. NVRAM's lnx,oops-log partition is used to log oops messages. Currently the kernel provides the contents of p-series NVRAM only as a simple stream of bytes via /dev/nvram, which must be interpreted in user space by the nvram command in the powerpc-utils package. This patch set exploits the pstore subsystem to expose oops partition in NVRAM as a separate file in /dev/pstore. For instance, Oops messages will be stored in a file named [dmesg-nvram-2]. In case pstore registration fails it will fall back to kmsg_dump mechanism. This patch will read/write the oops messages from/to this partition via pstore.

2013-06-20powerpc: Restore dbcr0 on user space exitBharat Bhushan
On BookE (Branch taken + Single Step) is as same as Branch Taken on BookS and in Linux we simulate BookS behavior for BookE as well. When doing so, in Branch taken handling we want to set DBCR0_IC but we update the current->thread->dbcr0 and not DBCR0. Now on 64bit the current->thread.dbcr0 (and other debug registers) is synchronized ONLY on context switch flow. But after handling Branch taken in debug exception if we return back to user space without context switch then single stepping change (DBCR0_ICMP) does not get written in h/w DBCR0 and Instruction Complete exception does not happen.

2013-06-20powerpc/vfio: Enable on PowerNV platformAlexey Kardashevskiy
This initializes IOMMU groups based on the IOMMU configuration discovered during the PCI scan on POWERNV (POWER non virtualized) platform. The IOMMU groups are to be used later by the VFIO driver, which is used for PCI pass through. It also implements an API for mapping/unmapping pages for guest PCI drivers and providing DMA window properties. This API is going to be used later by QEMU-VFIO to handle h_put_tce hypercalls from the KVM guest. The iommu_put_tce_user_mode() does only a single page mapping as an API for adding many mappings at once is going to be added later. Although this driver has been tested only on the POWERNV platform, it should work on any platform which supports TCE tables. As h_put_tce hypercall is received by the host kernel and processed by the QEMU (what involves calling the host kernel again), performance is not the best - circa 220MB/s on 10Gb ethernet network. To enable VFIO on POWER, enable SPAPR_TCE_IOMMU config option and configure VFIO as required.

2013-06-20powerpc/kprobes: Do not disable External interrupts during single stepSuzuki K. Poulose
External/Decrement exceptions have lower priority than the Debug Exception. So, we don't have to disable the External interrupts before a single step. However, on BookE, Critical Input Exception(CE) has higher priority than a Debug Exception. Hence we mask them. Signed-off-by: Suzuki K.

2013-06-20powerpc: Fix bad pmd error with book3E configAneesh Kumar K.V
Book3E uses the hugepd at PMD level and don't encode pte directly at the pmd level. So it will find the lower bits of pmd set and the pmd_bad check throws error. Infact the current code will never take the free_hugepd_range call at all because it will clear the pmd if it find a hugepd pointer. Fix this by clearing bad pmd only if it is not a hugepd pointer.

Conflicts: drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/Kconfig drivers/net/xen-netback/netback.c net/batman-adv/bat_iv_ogm.c net/wireless/nl80211.c The ath9k Kconfig conflict was a change of a Kconfig option name right next to the deletion of another option. The xen-netback conflict was overlapping changes involving the handling of the notify list in xen_netbk_rx_action(). Batman conflict resolution provided by Antonio Quartulli, basically keep everything in both conflict hunks. The nl80211 conflict is a little more involved. In 'net' we added a dynamic memory allocation to nl80211_dump_wiphy() to fix a race that Linus reported. Meanwhile in 'net-next' the handlers were converted to use pre and post doit handlers which use a flag to determine whether to hold the RTNL mutex around the operation. However, the dump handlers to not use this logic. Instead they have to explicitly do the locking. There were apparent bugs in the conversion of nl80211_dump_wiphy() in that we were not dropping the RTNL mutex in all the return paths, and it seems we very much should be doing so. So I fixed that whilst handling the overlapping changes. To simplify the initial returns, I take the RTNL mutex after we try to allocate 'tb'. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

I figured it out when I was going through sched-domains.txt and so thought of fixing it globally.

2013-06-15powerpc: Fix missing/delayed calls to irq_workBenjamin Herrenschmidt
When replaying interrupts (as a result of the interrupt occurring while soft-disabled), in the case of the decrementer, we are exclusively testing for a pending timer target. However we also use decrementer interrupts to trigger the new "irq_work", which in this case would be missed. This change the logic to force a replay in both cases of a timer boundary reached and a decrementer interrupt having actually occurred while disabled. The former test is still useful to catch cases where a CPU having been hard-disabled for a long time completely misses the interrupt due to a decrementer rollover.

2013-06-15powerpc: Fix emulation of illegal instructions on PowerNV platformPaul Mackerras
Normally, the kernel emulates a few instructions that are unimplemented on some processors (e.g. the old dcba instruction), or privileged (e.g. mfpvr). The emulation of unimplemented instructions is currently not working on the PowerNV platform. The reason is that on these machines, unimplemented and illegal instructions cause a hypervisor emulation assist interrupt, rather than a program interrupt as on older CPUs. Our vector for the emulation assist interrupt just calls program_check_exception() directly, without setting the bit in SRR1 that indicates an illegal instruction interrupt. This fixes it by making the emulation assist interrupt set that bit before calling program_check_interrupt(). With this, old programs that use no-longer implemented instructions such as dcba now work again.
