powerpc/kexec: make masking/disabling interrupts generic

2010-10-14T05:52:46Z

Right now just the kexec crash pathway turns turns off the interrupts. Pull that out and make a generic version for use elsewhere Signed-off-by: Matthew McClintock Signed-off-by: Kumar Gala

powerpc/crashdump: Fix issues with kexec and 36bit physical addr

2010-07-31T04:56:30Z

Fix sizes of variables so correct values are exported via /proc. Cast variable in comparison to avoid compiler error. Signed-off-by: Matthew McClintock Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt

lmb: rename to memblock

powerpc: Allow mem=x cmdline to work with 4G+

2009-05-15T06:43:41Z

We're currently choking on mem=4g (and above) due to memory_limit being specified as an unsigned long. Make memory_limit phys_addr_t to fix this. Signed-off-by: Becky Bruce Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt

powerpc/kexec: Check crash_base for relocatable kernel

2009-01-13T03:47:59Z

Enforce that the crash kernel region never overlaps the current kernel, as it will be written directly on kexec load. Also, default to the previous KDUMP_KERNELBASE if the start is 0. Other architectures (x86, ia64) state that specifying the start address 0 (or omitting it) will result in the kernel allocating it. Before the relocatable patch in 2.6.28, powerpc would adjust any other start value to the hardcoded KDUMP_KERNELBASE of 32M. Signed-off-by: Milton Miller Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt

powerpc/32: Setup OF properties for kdump

2008-12-23T04:13:29Z

Refactor the setting of kdump OF properties, moving the common code from machine_kexec_64.c to machine_kexec.c where it can be used on both ppc64 and ppc32. This will be needed for kdump to work on ppc32 platforms. Signed-off-by: Dale Farnsworth Signed-off-by: Anton Vorontsov Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras

powerpc: Make default kexec/crash_kernel ops implicit

2008-12-23T04:13:28Z

This removes the need for each platform to specify default kexec and crash kernel ops, thus effectively adds a working kexec support for most 6xx/7xx/7xxx-based boards. Platforms that can't cope with default ops will explode in some weird way (a hang or reboot is most likely), which means that the board's kexec support should be fixed or blacklisted via dummy _prepare callback returning -ENOSYS.
