kexec invokes plpar_hcall hypervisor call in real mode. plpar_hcall refers to per cpu variables for accounting hypervisor statistics. These variables may not be in the RMO region, so accesses to them in real mode may result in a data storage exception. This fixes this problem by using a new plpar_hcall_raw function which does not update the hypervisor call statistics. Thanks to Anton for suggesting this idea.

H_BULK_REMOVE lets us remove 4 entries from the MMU hash table with one hypervisor call. This uses it in pSeries_lpar_hpte_invalidate so we can tear down mappings with fewer hypervisor calls. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

There were a few issues with the HCALL_STATS code: - PURR cpu feature checks were backwards - We iterated one entry off the end of the hcall_stats array - Remove dead update_hcall_stats() function prototype I noticed one thing while debugging, and that is we call H_ENTER (to set up the MMU hashtable in early init) before we have done the cpu fixups. This means we will execute the PURR SPR reads even on a CPU that isnt capable of it. I wonder if we can move the CPU feature fixups earlier.

Add instrumentation for hypervisor calls on pseries. Call statistics include number of calls, wall time and cpu cycles (if available) and are made available via debugfs. Instrumentation code is behind the HCALL_STATS config option and has no impact if not enabled. Signed-off-by: Mike Kravetz <kravetz@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

Our pseries hcall interfaces are out of control: plpar_hcall_norets plpar_hcall plpar_hcall_8arg_2ret plpar_hcall_4out plpar_hcall_7arg_7ret plpar_hcall_9arg_9ret Create 3 interfaces to cover all cases: plpar_hcall_norets: 7 arguments no returns plpar_hcall: 6 arguments 4 returns plpar_hcall9: 9 arguments 9 returns There are only 2 cases in the kernel that need plpar_hcall9, hopefully we can keep it that way. Pass in a buffer to stash return parameters so we avoid the &dummy1, &dummy2 madness. Signed-off-by: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org> -- Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

Currently the kernel blindly halts all the processors and calls the ibm,suspend-me rtas call. If the firmware is not in the correct state, we then re-start all the processors and return. It is much smarter to first check the firmware state, and only if it is waiting, call the ibm,suspend-me call. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

This extends the HCALL interface for InfiniBand usage. I've made the patch against the linux-2.6 git tree and Segher's patch: [PATCH] Change H_StudlyCaps to H_SHOUTING_CAPS We moved this into the common powerpc code based on comments we got after posting the first eHCA InfiniBand device driver patch.

Since pSeries only wants to do something different in the idle loop when there is no work to do, we can simplify the code by implementing ppc_md.power_save functions instead of complete idle loops. There are two versions: one for shared-processor partitions and one for dedicated- processor partitions. With this we also do a cede_processor() call on dedicated processor partitions if the poll_pending() call indicates that the hypervisor has work it wants to do.

include/asm-ppc/ had #ifdef __KERNEL__ in all header files that are not meant for use by user space, include/asm-powerpc does not have this yet. This patch gets us a lot closer there. There are a few cases where I was not sure, so I left them out. I have verified that no CONFIG_* symbols are used outside of __KERNEL__ any more and that there are no obvious compile errors when including any of the headers in user space libraries.

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).
