2011-02-28dt/powerpc: move of_bus_type infrastructure to ibmebusGrant Likely
arch/powerpc/kernel/ibmebus.c is the only remaining user of the of_bus_type support code for initializing the bus and registering drivers. All others have either been switched to the vanilla platform bus or already have their own infrastructure. This patch moves the functionality that ibmebus is using out of drivers/of/{platform,device}.c and into ibmebus.c where it is actually used. Also renames the moved symbols from of_platform_* to ibmebus_bus_* to reflect the actual usage. This patch is part of moving all of the of_platform_bus_type users over to the platform_bus_type.

2011-02-17tty: add TIOCVHANGUP to allow clean tty shutdown of all ttysKay Sievers
This is useful for system management software so that it can kick off things like gettys and everything that's started from a tty, before we reuse it from/for something else or shut it down. Without this ioctl it would have to temporarily become the owner of the tty, then call vhangup() and then give it up again.

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.

2011-02-07powerpc/numa: Fix bug in unmap_cpu_from_nodeAnton Blanchard
When converting to the new cpumask code I screwed up: - if (cpu_isset(cpu, numa_cpumask_lookup_table[node])) { - cpu_clear(cpu, numa_cpumask_lookup_table[node]); + if (cpumask_test_cpu(cpu, node_to_cpumask_map[node])) { + cpumask_set_cpu(cpu, node_to_cpumask_map[node]); This was introduced in commit 25863de07af9 (powerpc/cpumask: Convert NUMA code to new cpumask API) Fix it.

2011-02-07powerpc/numa: Add length when creating OF properties via VPHNAnton Blanchard

2011-02-07powerpc/numa: Only use active VPHN count fieldsAnton Blanchard
VPHN supports up to 8 distance fields but the number of entries in ibm,associativity-reference-points signifies how many are in use. Don't look at all the VPHN counts, only distance_ref_points_depth worth. Since we already cap our distance metrics at MAX_DISTANCE_REF_POINTS, use that to size the VPHN arrays and add a BUILD_BUG_ON to avoid it growing larger than the VPHN maximum of 8.

2011-02-07powerpc: Fix some 6xx/7xxx CPU setup functionsBenjamin Herrenschmidt
Some of those functions try to adjust the CPU features, for example to remove NAP support on some revisions. However, they seem to use r5 as an index into the CPU table entry, which might have been right a long time ago but no longer is. r4 is the right register to use. This probably caused some off behaviours on some PowerMac variants using 750cx or 7455 processor revisions. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> CC: stable@kernel.org
2011-02-07powerpc: Pass the right cpu_spec to ->setup_cpu() on 64-bitBenjamin Herrenschmidt
When calling setup_cpu() on 64-bit, we pass a pointer to the cputable entry we have found. This used to be fine when cur_cpu_spec was a pointer to that entry, but nowadays, we copy the entry into a separate variable, and we do so before we call the setup_cpu() callback. That means that any attempt by that callback at patching the CPU table entry (to adjust CPU features for example) will patch the wrong table.

2011-02-04powerpc/pci: Make both ppc32 and ppc64 use sysdata for pci_controllerGrant Likely
Currently, ppc32 uses sysdata for the pci_controller pointer, and ppc64 uses it to hold the device_node pointer. This patch moves the of_node pointer into (struct pci_bus*)->dev.of_node and (struct pci_dev*)->dev.of_node so that sysdata can be converted to always use the pci_controller pointer instead. It also fixes up the allocating of pci devices so that the of_node pointer gets assigned consistently and increments the ref count. Signed-off-by: Grant Likely <grant.likely@secretlab.ca>

2011-01-21powerpc: Fix corruption when grabbing FWNMI dataAnton Blanchard
The FWNMI code uses a global buffer without any locks to read the RTAS error information. If two CPUs take a machine check at once then we will corrupt this buffer. Since most FWNMI rtas messages are not of the extended type, we can create a 64bit percpu buffer and use it where possible. If we do receive an extended RTAS log then we fall back to the old behaviour of using the global buffer.
