powerpc/powernv: Always go into nap mode when CPU is offline

2012-09-05T06:05:20Z

The CPU hotplug code for the powernv platform currently only puts offline CPUs into nap mode if the powersave_nap variable is set. However, HV-style KVM on this platform requires secondary CPU threads to be offline and in nap mode. Since we know nap mode works just fine on all POWER7 machines, and the only machines that support the powernv platform are POWER7 machines, this changes the code to always put offline CPUs into nap mode, regardless of powersave_nap. Powersave_nap still controls whether or not CPUs go into nap mode when idle, as before. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt

KVM: PPC: Add cache flush on page map

2012-08-16T12:14:53Z

When we map a page that wasn't icache cleared before, do so when first mapping it in KVM using the same information bits as the Linux mapping logic. That way we are 100% sure that any page we map does not have stale entries in the icache. Signed-off-by: Alexander Graf

ipc: use Kconfig options for __ARCH_WANT_[COMPAT_]IPC_PARSE_VERSION

2012-07-31T00:25:21Z

Rather than #define the options manually in the architecture code, add Kconfig options for them and select them there instead. This also allows us to select the compat IPC version parsing automatically for platforms using the old compat IPC interface.

Pull DMA-mapping updates from Marek Szyprowski: "Those patches are continuation of my earlier work. They contains extensions to DMA-mapping framework to remove limitation of the current ARM implementation (like limited total size of DMA coherent/write combine buffers), improve performance of buffer sharing between devices (attributes to skip cpu cache operations or creation of additional kernel mapping for some specific use cases) as well as some unification of the common code for dma_mmap_attrs() and dma_mmap_coherent() functions.

common: dma-mapping: add support for generic dma_mmap_* calls

2012-07-30T10:25:46Z

Commit 9adc5374 ('common: dma-mapping: introduce mmap method') added a generic method for implementing mmap user call to dma_map_ops structure. This patch converts ARM and PowerPC architectures (the only providers of dma_mmap_coherent/dma_mmap_writecombine calls) to use this generic dma_map_ops based call and adds a generic cross architecture definition for dma_mmap_attrs, dma_mmap_coherent, dma_mmap_writecombine functions. The generic mmap virt_to_page-based fallback implementation is provided for architectures which don't provide their own implementation for mmap method.
