5663a1232b Revert "powerpc: Sync RPA note in zImage with kernel's RPA note"
This reverts commit 91a0030295, plus
commit 0dcd440120 ("powerpc: Revert CHRP
boot wrapper to real-base = 12MB on 32-bit") which depended on it.

Commit 91a00302 was causing NVRAM corruption on some pSeries machines,
for as-yet unknown reasons, so this reverts it until the cause is
identified.

2dccbf4ea0 powerpc: Fix bug in kernel copy of libfdt's fdt_subnode_offset_namelen()
There's currently an off-by-one bug in fdt_subnode_offset_namelen()
which causes it to keep searching after it's finished the subnodes of
the given parent, and into the subnodes of siblings of the original
node which come after it in the tree.  This bug was introduced in
commit ed95d7450d ("powerpc: Update
in-kernel dtc and libfdt to version 1.2.0").

A patch has already been submitted to dtc/libfdt mainline.  We don't
really want to pull in a new upstream version during the 2.6.28 cycle,
but we should still fix this bug, hence this standalone version of the
fix for the in-kernel libfdt.

0839ccb8ac i915: use io-mapping interfaces instead of a variety of mapping kludges
Impact: optimize/clean-up the IO mapping implementation of the i915 DRM driver

Switch the i915 device aperture mapping to the io-mapping interface, taking
advantage of the cleaner API to extend it across all of the mapping uses,
including both pwrite and relocation updates.

This dramatically improves performance on 64-bit kernels which were using
the same slow path as 32-bit non-HIGHMEM kernels prior to this patch.

9663f2e6a6 resources: add io-mapping functions to dynamically map large device apertures
Impact: add new generic io_map_*() APIs

Graphics devices have large PCI apertures which would consume a significant
fraction of a 32-bit address space if mapped during driver initialization.
Using ioremap at runtime is impractical as it is too slow.

This new set of interfaces uses atomic mappings on 32-bit processors and a
large static mapping on 64-bit processors to provide reasonable 32-bit
performance and optimal 64-bit performance.

The current implementation sits atop the io_map_atomic fixmap-based
mechanism for 32-bit processors.

This includes some editorial suggestions from Randy Dunlap for

a432226614 xfrm: do not leak ESRCH to user space
I noticed that, under certain conditions, ESRCH can be leaked from the
xfrm layer to user space through sys_connect. In particular, this seems
to happen reliably when the kernel fails to resolve a template either
because the AF_KEY receive buffer being used by racoon is full or
because the SA entry we are trying to use is in XFRM_STATE_EXPIRED
state.

However, since this could be a transient issue it could be argued that
EAGAIN would be more appropriate. Besides this error code is not even
documented in the man page for sys_connect (as of man-pages 3.07).

9ce8e3073d libata: add whitelist for devices with known good pata-sata bridges
libata currently imposes a UDMA5 max transfer rate and 200 sector max
transfer size for SATA devices that sit behind a pata-sata bridge. Lots
of devices have known good bridges that don't need this limit applied.
The MTRON SSD disks are such devices. Transfer rates are increased by
20-30% with the restriction removed.

So add a "blacklist" entry for the MTRON devices, with a flag indicating
that the bridge is known good.

b9d5b89b48 sata_via: fix support for 5287
5287 used to be treated as vt6420 but it didn't work.  It's new family
of controllers called vt8251 which hosts four SATA ports as M/S of the
two ATA ports.  This configuration is rather peculiar in that although
the M/S devices are on the same port, each have its own SCR (or
equivalent link status/control) registers which screws up the
port-link-device hierarchy assumed by libata.  Another controller
which falls into this category is ata_piix w/ SIDPR access.

libata now has facility to deal with this class of controllers named
slave_link.  A low level driver for such controllers can just call
ata_slave_link_init() on the respective ports and libata will handle
all the difficult parts like following up with single SRST after
hardresetting both ports.

This patch creates new controller class vt8251, implements slave_link
aware init sequence and config space based SCR access for it and moves
5287 to the new class.

This patch is based on Joseph Chan's larger patch which was created
before slave_link was implemented in libata.

ba14a9c291 libata: Avoid overflow in ata_tf_to_lba48() when tf->hba_lbal > 127
In ata_tf_to_lba48(), when evaluating

	(tf->hob_lbal & 0xff) << 24

the expression is promoted to signed int (since int can hold all values
of u8).  However, if hob_lbal is 128 or more, then it is treated as a
negative signed value and sign-extended when promoted to u64 to | into
sectors, which leads to the MSB 32 bits of section getting set
incorrectly.

For example, Phillip O'Donnell <phillip.odonnell@gmail.com> reported
that a 1.5GB drive caused:

    ata3.00: HPA detected: current 2930277168, native 18446744072344861488

where 2930277168 == 0xAEA87B30 and 18446744072344861488 == 0xffffffffaea87b30
which shows the problem when hob_lbal is 0xae.

Fix this by adding a cast to u64, just as is used by for hob_lbah and
hob_lbam in the function.

f9226d572d powerpc: Update remaining dma_mapping_ops to use map/unmap_page
After the merge of the 32 and 64bit DMA code, dma_direct_ops lost
their map/unmap_single() functions but gained map/unmap_page().  This
caused a problem for Cell because Cell's dma_iommu_fixed_ops called
the dma_direct_ops if the fixed linear mapping was to be used or the
iommu ops if the dynamic window was to be used.  So in order to fix
this problem we need to update the 64bit DMA code to use
map/unmap_page.

First, we update the generic IOMMU code so that iommu_map_single()
becomes iommu_map_page() and iommu_unmap_single() becomes
iommu_unmap_page().  Then we propagate these changes up through all
the callers of these two functions and in the process update all the
dma_mapping_ops so that they have map/unmap_page rahter than
map/unmap_single.  We can do this because on 64bit there is no HIGHMEM
memory so map/unmap_page ends up performing exactly the same function
as map/unmap_single, just taking different arguments.

This has no affect on drivers because the dma_map_single_attrs() just
ends up calling the map_page() function of the appropriate
dma_mapping_ops and similarly the dma_unmap_single_attrs() calls
unmap_page().

This fixes an oops on Cell blades, which oops on boot without this
because they call dma_direct_ops.map_single, which is NULL.

Not having these resources allocated causes an oops when removing
the PHB when we try to release them.

The diff appears a bit messy, this is mainly due to moving everything
one tab to the left in the pcibios_allocate_bus_resources routine.
The functionality change in this routine is only that the
list_for_each_entry() loop is pulled out and moved to the necessary
calling routine.

6098e2ee14 OF-device: Don't overwrite numa_node in device registration
Currently, the numa_node of OF-devices will be overwritten during
device_register, which simply sets the node to -1.  On cell machines,
this means that devices can't find their IOMMU, which is referenced
through the device's numa node.

Set the numa node for OF devices with no parent, and use the
lower-level device_initialize and device_add functions, so that the
node is preserved.

We can remove the call to set_dev_node in of_device_alloc, as it
will be overwritten during register.

16c29d180b powerpc: Fix swapcontext system for VSX + old ucontext size
Since VSX support was added, we now have two sizes of ucontext_t;
the older, smaller size without the extra VSX state, and the new
larger size with the extra VSX state.  A program using the
sys_swapcontext system call and supplying smaller ucontext_t
structures will currently get an EINVAL error if the task has
used VSX (e.g. because of calling library code that uses VSX) and
the old_ctx argument is non-NULL (i.e. the program is asking for
its current context to be saved).  Thus the program will start
getting EINVAL errors on calls that previously worked.

This commit changes this behaviour so that we don't send an EINVAL in
this case.  It will now return the smaller context but the VSX MSR bit
will always be cleared to indicate that the ucontext_t doesn't include
the extra VSX state, even if the task has executed VSX instructions.

Both 32 and 64 bit cases are updated.

[paulus@samba.org - also fix some access_ok() and get_user() calls]

Thanks to Ben Herrenschmidt for noticing this problem.

b160544ccc powerpc: Fix compiler warning for the relocatable kernel
Fixes this warning:
 arch/powerpc/kernel/setup_64.c:447:5: warning: "kernstart_addr" is not defined

which arises because PHYSICAL_START is no longer a constant when
CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y.

2a4b9c5af8 powerpc: Work around ld bug in older binutils
Commit 549e8152de ("powerpc: Make the
64-bit kernel as a position-independent executable") added lines to
vmlinux.lds.S to add the extra sections needed to implement a
relocatable kernel.  However, those lines seem to trigger a bug in
older versions of GNU ld (such as 2.16.1) when building a
non-relocatable kernel.  Since ld 2.16.1 is still a popular choice for
cross-toolchains, this adds an #ifdef to vmlinux.lds.S so the added
lines are only included when building a relocatable kernel.

8b8b0cc1c7 powerpc/ppc64/kdump: Better flag for running relocatable
The __kdump_flag ABI is overly constraining for future development.

As of 2.6.27, the kernel entry point has 4 constraints:  Offset 0 is
the starting point for the master (boot) cpu (entered with r3 pointing
to the device tree structure), offset 0x60 is code for the slave cpus
(entered with r3 set to their device tree physical id), offset 0x20 is
used by the iseries hypervisor, and secondary cpus must be well behaved
when the first 256 bytes are copied to address 0.

Placing the __kdump_flag at 0x18 is bad because:

- It was taking the last 8 bytes before the iseries hypervisor data.
- It was 8 bytes for a boolean flag
- It had no way of identifying that the flag was present
- It does leave any room for the master to add any additional code
  before branching, which hurts debug.
- It will be unnecessarily hard for 32 bit code to be common (8 bytes)

Now that we have eliminated the use of __kdump_flag in favor of
the standard is_kdump_kernel(), this flag only controls run without
relocating the kernel to PHYSICAL_START (0), so rename it __run_at_load.

Move the flag to 0x5c, 1 word before the secondary cpu entry point at
0x60.  Initialize it with "run0" to say it will run at 0 unless it is
set to 1.  It only exists if we are relocatable.

62a8bd6c92 powerpc: Use is_kdump_kernel()
linux/crash_dump.h defines is_kdump_kernel() to be used by code that
needs to know if the previous kernel crashed instead of a (clean) boot
or reboot.

This updates the just added powerpc code to use it.  This is needed
for the next commit, which will remove __kdump_flag.

1767c8f392 powerpc: Kexec exit should not use magic numbers
Commit 54622f10a6 ("powerpc: Support for
relocatable kdump kernel") added a magic flag value in a register to
tell purgatory that it should be a panic kernel.  This part is wrong
and is reverted by this commit.

The kernel gets a list of memory blocks and a entry point from user space.
Its job is to copy the blocks into place and then branch to the designated
entry point (after turning "off" the mmu).

The user space tool inserts a trampoline, called purgatory, that runs
before the user supplied code.   Its job is to establish the entry
environment for the new kernel or other application based on the contents
of memory.  The purgatory code is compiled and embedded in the tool,
where it is later patched using the elf symbol table using elf symbols.

Since the tool knows it is creating a purgatory that will run after a
kernel crash, it should just patch purgatory (or the kernel directly)
if something needs to happen.
