POWERPC: drivers: remove __dev* attributes.

2013-01-03T23:57:04Z

CONFIG_HOTPLUG is going away as an option. As a result, the __dev* markings need to be removed. This change removes the use of __devinit, __devexit_p, __devinitdata, __devinitconst, and __devexit from these drivers. Based on patches originally written by Bill Pemberton, but redone by me in order to handle some of the coding style issues better, by hand.

powerpc+of: Rename the drivers/of prom_* functions to of_*

2012-11-15T01:56:52Z

Rename the prom_*_property routines of the generic OF code to of_*_property. This brings them in line with the naming used by the rest of the OF code. Signed-off-by: Nathan Fontenot Acked-by: Geoff Levand Acked-by: Rob Herring Acked-by: Grant Likely Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt

powerpc/mm: Convert virtual address to vpn

2012-09-17T06:31:49Z

This patch convert different functions to take virtual page number instead of virtual address. Virtual page number is virtual address shifted right by VPN_SHIFT (12) bits. This enable us to have an address range of upto 76 bits. Reviewed-by: Paul Mackerras Signed-off-by: Aneesh Kumar K.V Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt

powerpc: Rework set_dabr so it can take a DABRX value as well

2012-09-09T23:59:10Z

Rework set_dabr to take a DABRX value as well. Both the pseries and PS3 hypervisors do some checks on the DABRX values that are passed in the hcall. This patch stops bogus values from being passed to hypervisor. Also, in the case where we are clearing the breakpoint, where DABR and DABRX are zero, we modify the DABRX value to make it valid so that the hcall won't fail.

powerpc/ps3: Remove MEMORY_HOTPLUG requirement

2012-04-24T22:34:18Z

The dependency on hotplug memory was removed, so remove the dependency in the Kconfig. Signed-off-by: Andre Heider Signed-off-by: Geoff Levand

powerpc/ps3: Add highmem region memory early

2012-04-24T22:34:18Z

Real mode memory can be limited and runs out quickly as memory is allocated during kernel startup. Having the highmem available sooner fixes this. This change simplifies the memory management code by converting from hotplug memory to logical memory blocks. Signed-off-by: Hector Martin Signed-off-by: Andre Heider Signed-off-by: Geoff Levand

powerpc/ps3: Use highmem region from repository

2012-04-24T22:34:17Z

Use any preallocated highmem region setup by the bootloader. This implementation only checks for the existance of a single region at region_index=0. This feature allows the bootloader to preallocate highmem regions and pass the region locations to the kernel through the repository. Preallocated regions can be used to hold the initrd or other large data. If no region info exists, the kernel retains the old behavior and attempts to allocate the highmem region itself. Based on Hector Martin's patch "Get lv1 high memory region from devtree". CC: Hector Martin Signed-off-by: Andre Heider CC: Nathan Whitehorn Signed-off-by: Geoff Levand

powerpc/ps3: Add highmem repository read routines

2012-04-24T22:34:17Z

Add repository helper routines to read highmem region info. Bootloaders that preallocate highmem regions must place the region info into the repository at these well known nodes. These routines allow second stage kernles to read the region info from those nodes. Signed-off-by: Andre Heider CC: Nathan Whitehorn Signed-off-by: Geoff Levand

powerpc/ps3: Add highmem repository write routines

2012-04-24T22:34:17Z

Add routines to allow Linux based bootloaders to create and/or modify highmem region info in the PS3 system repository where it can be retrived by later boot stages. Signed-off-by: Geoff Levand
