2014-11-10powerpc/boot: Parse chosen/cmdline-timeout parameterSimon Kagstrom
On some platforms a 5 second timeout during boot might be quite long, so make it configurable. Run the loop at least once to let the user stop the boot by holding a key pressed. If the timeout is set to 0, don't wait for input, which can be used as a workaround if the boot hangs on random data coming in on the serial port.

2014-11-10powerpc: Remove unused CPU_FTRS_A2Michael Ellerman

2014-11-10powerpc: Remove CPU_FTR_HVMODE from CPU_FTRS_ALWAYSMichael Ellerman
We potentially clear CPU_FTR_HVMODE at runtime in __init_hvmode_206(), so we must make sure it's not set in CPU_FTRS_ALWAYS. This doesn't hurt us in practice at the moment, because we don't support compiling only for CPUs that support CPU_FTR_HVMODE. Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>

2014-11-10powerpc/ftrace: simplify prepare_ftrace_returnAnton Blanchard
Instead of passing in the stack address of the link register to be modified, just pass in the old value and return the new value and rely on ftrace_graph_caller to do the modification. This removes the exception handling around the stack update - it isn't needed and we weren't consistent about it.

2014-11-03powerpc: Convert power off logic to pm_power_offAlexander Graf
The generic Linux framework to power off the machine is a function pointer called pm_power_off. The trick about this pointer is that device drivers can potentially implement it rather than board files. Today on powerpc we set pm_power_off to invoke our generic full machine power off logic which then calls ppc_md.power_off to invoke machine specific power off. However, when we want to add a power off GPIO via the "gpio-poweroff" driver, this card house falls apart. That driver only registers itself if pm_power_off is NULL to ensure it doesn't override board specific logic. However, since we always set pm_power_off to the generic power off logic (which will just not power off the machine if no ppc_md.power_off call is implemented), we can't implement power off via the generic GPIO power off driver. To fix this up, let's get rid of the ppc_md.power_off logic and just always use pm_power_off as was intended. Then individual drivers such as the GPIO power off driver can implement power off logic via that function pointer. With this patch set applied and a few patches on top of QEMU that implement a power off GPIO on the virt e500 machine, I can successfully turn off my virtual machine after halt.

2014-11-03powerpc: Replace __get_cpu_var usesChristoph Lameter
This still has not been merged and now powerpc is the only arch that does not have this change. Sorry about missing linuxppc-dev before. V2->V2 - Fix up to work against 3.18-rc1 __get_cpu_var() is used for multiple purposes in the kernel source. One of them is address calculation via the form &__get_cpu_var(x). This calculates the address for the instance of the percpu variable of the current processor based on an offset. Other use cases are for storing and retrieving data from the current processors percpu area. __get_cpu_var() can be used as an lvalue when writing data or on the right side of an assignment. __get_cpu_var() is defined as : __get_cpu_var() always only does an address determination. However, store and retrieve operations could use a segment prefix (or global register on other platforms) to avoid the address calculation. this_cpu_write() and this_cpu_read() can directly take an offset into a percpu area and use optimized assembly code to read and write per cpu variables. This patch converts __get_cpu_var into either an explicit address calculation using this_cpu_ptr() or into a use of this_cpu operations that use the offset. Thereby address calculations are avoided and less registers are used when code is generated. At the end of the patch set all uses of __get_cpu_var have been removed so the macro is removed too. The patch set includes passes over all arches as well. Once these operations are used throughout then specialized macros can be defined in non -x86 arches as well in order to optimize per cpu access by f.e. using a global register that may be set to the per cpu base. Transformations done to __get_cpu_var() 1. Determine the address of the percpu instance of the current processor. DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y); int *x = &__get_cpu_var(y); Converts to int *x = this_cpu_ptr(&y); 2. Same as #1 but this time an array structure is involved.

2014-11-02powerpc: use device_online/offline() instead of cpu_up/down()Dan Streetman
In powerpc pseries platform dlpar operations, use device_online() and device_offline() instead of cpu_up() and cpu_down(). Calling cpu_up/down() directly does not update the cpu device offline field, which is used to online/offline a cpu from sysfs. Calling device_online/offline() instead keeps the sysfs cpu online value correct. The hotplug lock, which is required to be held when calling device_online/offline(), is already held when dlpar_online/offline_cpu() are called, since they are called only from cpu_probe|release_store(). This patch fixes errors on phyp (PowerVM) systems that have cpu(s) added/removed using dlpar operations; without this patch, the /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuN/online nodes do not correctly show the online state of added/removed cpus.

My guess is the gcc compiler gods shone down on us and its register allocator never used r4. Sometimes, rarely, luck is on our side. LLVM on the other hand did trample r4.
