061c063efc [PATCH] ppc64 iSeries: remove some more members of iSeries_Device_Node
The AgentId, PhbId, FrameId, CardLocation and Location members of
iSeries_Device_Node are stored early in the boot process just so that a
message about the device can be printed later in the boot process.  Remove
them and construct the message by doing the VPD parsing at the time the
message is printed.

Also remove a few unused defines in iSeries_VpdInfo.c.

20cee16ced [PATCH] ppc64: Abolish ioremap_mm
Currently ppc64 has two mm_structs for the kernel, init_mm and also
ioremap_mm.  The latter really isn't necessary: this patch abolishes it,
instead restricting vmallocs to the lower 1TB of the init_mm's range and
placing io mappings in the upper 1TB.  This simplifies the code in a number
of places and eliminates an unecessary set of pagetables.  It also tweaks
the unmap/free path a little, allowing us to remove the unmap_im_area() set
of page table walkers, replacing them with unmap_vm_area().

39c715b717 [PATCH] smp_processor_id() cleanup
This patch implements a number of smp_processor_id() cleanup ideas that
Arjan van de Ven and I came up with.

The previous __smp_processor_id/_smp_processor_id/smp_processor_id API
spaghetti was hard to follow both on the implementational and on the
usage side.

Some of the complexity arose from picking wrong names, some of the
complexity comes from the fact that not all architectures defined
__smp_processor_id.

In the new code, there are two externally visible symbols:

 - smp_processor_id(): debug variant.

 - raw_smp_processor_id(): nondebug variant. Replaces all existing
   uses of _smp_processor_id() and __smp_processor_id(). Defined
   by every SMP architecture in include/asm-*/smp.h.

There is one new internal symbol, dependent on DEBUG_PREEMPT:

 - debug_smp_processor_id(): internal debug variant, mapped to
                             smp_processor_id().

Also, i moved debug_smp_processor_id() from lib/kernel_lock.c into a new
lib/smp_processor_id.c file.  All related comments got updated and/or
clarified.

I have build/boot tested the following 8 .config combinations on x86:

 {SMP,UP} x {PREEMPT,!PREEMPT} x {DEBUG_PREEMPT,!DEBUG_PREEMPT}

I have also build/boot tested x64 on UP/PREEMPT/DEBUG_PREEMPT.  (Other
architectures are untested, but should work just fine.)

d3588ba9bb [PATCH] initialize TCE tables
A fairly recent platform requirement states that the OS must clear the
whole TCE table at setup time, in case firmware left any active
mappings in it.  Without this initialization, dynamic bus removes can
fail.  Firmware rejects these requests if active mappings still exist 
for a slot that has been deallocated by the OS.

This patch fixes some bugs in the ppc64 PER_LINUX32 implementation,

* uname(2) doesn't respect PER_LINUX32, it returns 'ppc64' instead of 'ppc'
* Child processes of a PER_LINUX32 process don't inherit PER_LINUX32

Along the way I took the opportunity to move things around so that
sys_ppc32.c only has 32-bit syscall emulation functions and to remove
the obsolete "fakeppc" command line option.

5f64f73957 [PATCH] ppc32/ppc64: cleanup /proc/device-tree
This cleans up the /proc/device-tree representation of the Open Firmware
device-tree on ppc and ppc64.  It does the following things:

 - Workaround an issue in some Apple device-trees where a property may
   exist with the same name as a child node of the parent.  We now
   simply "drop" the property instead of creating duplicate entries in
   /proc with random result...

 - Do not try to chop off the "@0" at the end of a node name whose unit
   address is 0.  This is not useful, inconsistent, and the code was
   buggy and didn't always work anyway.

 - Do not create symlinks for the short name and unit address parts of a
   node.  These were never really used, bloated the memory footprint of
   the device-tree with useless struct proc_dir_entry and their matching
   dentry and inode cache bloat.

This results in smaller code, smaller memory footprint, and a more
accurate view of the tree presented to userland.

44e4665cc9 [PATCH] ppc64: Fix a device-tree bug on Apple's
Apple's Open Firmware has a funny bug when creating the /cpus nodes
where it leaves a dangling '\0' character in the CPU name which ends up
appearing in the full path of the node. This is bogus and
confuses /proc/device-tree badly.

This patch strips those bogus zero's from the node full path when
reading the device-tree from Open Firmware. The "name" property is not
modified and still contains the spurrious 0 (it basically contains 0
tailing 0 instead of one) but that shouldn't be a problem.

An equivalent patch for ppc32 will follow shortly

8f80e5c911 [PATCH] ppc64: fix initialisation of gettimeofday calculations
On PPC64, we keep track of when we need to update jiffies (and the
variables used to calculate the time of day) based on the time base.

If the time base frequence is sufficiently high compared to the
processor clock frequency, then it is possible for the time of day
variables to be corrupted at the time of the first decrementer interrupt
we take.  This became obvious on a legacy iSeries where the time base
frequency is the same as the processor clock.

This one line patch fixes the initialisation so that the time of day
variables and the indicator we use to tell when updates are due are
better synchronised.

	- Removing some cases where macros which could be defined in
terms of each other weren't
	- Moving imalloc() related definitions from pgtable.h to their
own header file (imalloc.h)
	- Re-arranging headers to group things more logically
	- Moving all VSID allocation related things to mmu.h, instead
of being split between mmu.h and mmu_context.h
	- Removing some reserved space for flags from the PMD - we're
not using it.
	- Fix some bugs which broke compile with STRICT_MM_TYPECHECKS.

7ed20e1ad5 [PATCH] convert that currently tests _NSIG directly to use valid_signal()
Convert most of the current code that uses _NSIG directly to instead use
valid_signal().  This avoids gcc -W warnings and off-by-one errors.

fbd568a3e6 [PATCH] Change synchronize_kernel to _rcu and _sched
This patch changes calls to synchronize_kernel(), deprecated in the earlier
"Deprecate synchronize_kernel, GPL replacement" patch to instead call the new
synchronize_rcu() and synchronize_sched() APIs.

c4005e4f66 [PATCH] ppc64: firmware workaround
Recent gcc 4.0 testing uncovered a firmware issue.  Some properties are larger
than 31 bytes and due to gcc 4.0s better stack allocation this overflow ran
over non volatile register storage.

66faf9845a [PATCH] ppc64: tell firmware about kernel capabilities
On pSeries systems, according to the platform architecture specs, we are
supposed to be supplying a structure to firmware that tells firmware about
our capabilities, such as which version of the data structures that
describe available memory we are expecting to see.  The way we end up
having to supply this data structure is a bit gross, since it was designed
for AIX and doesn't suit us very well.  This patch adds the code to supply
this data structure to the firmware.

dc3ec7503e [PATCH] ppc64: Fix irq parsing on powermac
When I tried Ben's patches to the powermac sound driver on my G5, I found
that it was taking enormous numbers of sound DMA transmit interrupts.  This
turned out to be because it was incorrectly configured as level-sensitive
instead of edge-sensitive, which in turn was because the code that parses
the interrupt tree that Open Firmware gives us was incorrectly assigning
another device the same irq number as the sound DMA transmit interrupt
(i.e.  1).

This patch fixes the problem, in a somewhat quick and dirty way for now,
but one which will work for all the machines we currently run on.
Ultimately Ben and I want to do something more general and robust, but this
should go in for 2.6.12.

1b29f9d13e [PATCH] ppc64: add PT_NOTE section to vDSO
This patch from Roland adds a PT_NOTE section to both 32 and 64 bits vDSOs
to expose the kernel version to glibc, thus avoiding a uname syscall on
every launch.  This is equivalent to the patches Roland posted already for
x86 and x86-64.

Note: the 64 bits .note is actually using the 32 bits format.  This is
normal.  The ELF spec specifies a different format for 64 bits .note, but
for some reason, this was never properly implemented, the core dumps for
example are all using 32 bits format .note, and binutils cannot even read a
64 bits format .note.  Talking to our toolchain folks, they think we'd
rather stick to 32 bits format .note everywhere and get the spec fixed some
day ...
