The break_lock data structure and code for spinlocks is quite nasty.
Not only does it double the size of a spinlock but it changes locking to
a potentially less optimal trylock.
Put all of that under CONFIG_GENERIC_LOCKBREAK, and introduce a
__raw_spin_is_contended that uses the lock data itself to determine whether
there are waiters on the lock, to be used if CONFIG_GENERIC_LOCKBREAK is
not set.
Rename need_lockbreak to spin_needbreak, make it use spin_is_contended to
decouple it from the spinlock implementation, and make it typesafe (rwlocks
do not have any need_lockbreak sites -- why do they even get bloated up
with that break_lock then?).

Using 64k pages on 64-bit PowerPC systems makes life difficult for
emulators that are trying to emulate an ISA, such as x86, which use a
smaller page size, since the emulator can no longer use the MMU and
the normal system calls for controlling page protections. Of course,
the emulator can emulate the MMU by checking and possibly remapping
the address for each memory access in software, but that is pretty
slow.
This provides a facility for such programs to control the access
permissions on individual 4k sub-pages of 64k pages. The idea is
that the emulator supplies an array of protection masks to apply to a
specified range of virtual addresses. These masks are applied at the
level where hardware PTEs are inserted into the hardware page table
based on the Linux PTEs, so the Linux PTEs are not affected. Note
that this new mechanism does not allow any access that would otherwise
be prohibited; it can only prohibit accesses that would otherwise be
allowed. This new facility is only available on 64-bit PowerPC and
only when the kernel is configured for 64k pages.
The masks are supplied using a new subpage_prot system call, which
takes a starting virtual address and length, and a pointer to an array
of protection masks in memory. The array has a 32-bit word per 64k
page to be protected; each 32-bit word consists of 16 2-bit fields,
for which 0 allows any access (that is otherwise allowed), 1 prevents
write accesses, and 2 or 3 prevent any access.
Implicit in this is that the regions of the address space that are
protected are switched to use 4k hardware pages rather than 64k
hardware pages (on machines with hardware 64k page support). In fact
the whole process is switched to use 4k hardware pages when the
subpage_prot system call is used, but this could be improved in future
to switch only the affected segments.
The subpage protection bits are stored in a 3 level tree akin to the
page table tree. The top level of this tree is stored in a structure
that is appended to the top level of the page table tree, i.e., the
pgd array. Since it will often only be 32-bit addresses (below 4GB)
that are protected, the pointers to the first four bottom level pages
are also stored in this structure (each bottom level page contains the
protection bits for 1GB of address space), so the protection bits for
addresses below 4GB can be accessed with one fewer loads than those
for higher addresses.

This adds to the previous 2 patches the support for the 4xx PCI Express
cells as found in the 440SPe revA, revB and 405EX.
Unfortunately, due to significant differences between these, and other
interesting "features" of those pieces of HW, the code isn't as simple
as it is for PCI and PCI-X and some of the functions differ significantly
between the 3 implementations. Thus, not only this code can only support
those 3 implementations for now and will refuse to operate on any other,
but there are added ifdef's to avoid the bloat of building a fairly large
amount of code on platforms that don't need it.
Also, this code currently only supports fully initializing root complex
nodes, not endpoint. Some more code will have to be lifted from the
arch/ppc implementation to add the endpoint support, though it's mostly
differences in memory mapping, and the question on how to represent
endpoint mode PCI in the device-tree is thus open.
Many thanks to Stefan Roese for testing & fixing up the 405EX bits !

Maple and pasemi both require PCI as does CONFIG_OF_PLATFORM_PCI.
The default setting of CONFIG_ISA_DMA_API is set to match the protection
around the relevant routines in asm/dma.h.
I also had to remove the PMAC platform from the combined build. The
precis is that to build a 64 bit kernel with no PCI, you can only include
pSeries and iSeries.

Ordinarily the size of a pageblock is determined at compile-time based on the
hugepage size. On PPC64, the hugepage size is determined at runtime based on
what is supported by the machine. With legacy machines such as iSeries that
do not support hugepages, HPAGE_SHIFT is 0. This results in pageblock_order
being set to -PAGE_SHIFT and a crash results shortly afterwards.
This patch adds a function to select a sensible value for pageblock order by
default when HUGETLB_PAGE_SIZE_VARIABLE is set. It checks that HPAGE_SHIFT
is a sensible value before using the hugepage size; if it is not MAX_ORDER-1
is used.
This is a fix for 2.6.24.

Previously, Soft_emulate_8xx was called with no implementation, resulting in
build failures whenever building 8xx without math emulation. The
implementation is copied from arch/ppc to resolve this issue.
However, this sort of minimal emulation is not a very good idea other than
for compatibility with existing userspaces, as it's less efficient than
soft-float and can mislead users into believing they have soft-float. Thus,
it is made a configurable option, off by default.

The basic issue is to be able to do what hugetlbfs does but with
different page sizes for some other special filesystems; more
specifically, my need is:
- Huge pages
- SPE local store mappings using 64K pages on a 4K base page size
kernel on Cell
- Some special 4K segments in 64K-page kernels for mapping a dodgy
type of powerpc-specific infiniband hardware that requires 4K MMU
mappings for various reasons I won't explain here.
The main issues are:
- To maintain/keep track of the page size per "segment" (as we can
only have one page size per segment on powerpc, which are 256MB
divisions of the address space).
- To make sure special mappings stay within their allotted
"segments" (including MAP_FIXED crap)
- To make sure everybody else doesn't mmap/brk/grow_stack into a
"segment" that is used for a special mapping
Some of the necessary mechanisms to handle that were present in the
hugetlbfs code, but mostly in ways not suitable for anything else.
The patch relies on some changes to the generic get_unmapped_area()
that just got merged. It still hijacks hugetlb callbacks here or
there as the generic code hasn't been entirely cleaned up yet but
that shouldn't be a problem.
So what is a slice ? Well, I re-used the mechanism used formerly by our
hugetlbfs implementation which divides the address space in
"meta-segments" which I called "slices". The division is done using
256MB slices below 4G, and 1T slices above. Thus the address space is
divided currently into 16 "low" slices and 16 "high" slices. (Special
case: high slice 0 is the area between 4G and 1T).
Doing so simplifies significantly the tracking of segments and avoids
having to keep track of all the 256MB segments in the address space.
While I used the "concepts" of hugetlbfs, I mostly re-implemented
everything in a more generic way and "ported" hugetlbfs to it.
Slices can have an associated page size, which is encoded in the mmu
context and used by the SLB miss handler to set the segment sizes. The
hash code currently doesn't care, it has a specific check for hugepages,
though I might add a mechanism to provide per-slice hash mapping
functions in the future.
The slice code provide a pair of "generic" get_unmapped_area() (bottomup
and topdown) functions that should work with any slice size. There is
some trickiness here so I would appreciate people to have a look at the
implementation of these and let me know if I got something wrong.
