This is a trivial 4xx plaform that uses the new simple bsp from
Josh and is handy to use in simulators such as ISS or even Mambo
who don't properly implement most of the actual devices in the
SoC but really only the core.

476 requires an isync after loading MMU and debug related SPR's. Some of
these are in performance-critical paths and may need to be optimized, but
initially, we're playing it safe.

This patch adds the base support for the 476 processor. The code was
primarily written by Ben Herrenschmidt and Torez Smith, but I've been
maintaining it for a while.
The goal is to have a single binary that will run on 44x and 47x, but
we still have some details to work out. The biggest is that the L1 cache
line size differs on the two platforms, but it's currently a compile-time
option.

The current setting for SECTION_SIZE_BITS is quite small compared to
everyone else:
arch/powerpc/include/asm/sparsemem.h:#define SECTION_SIZE_BITS 24
arch/sparc/include/asm/sparsemem.h:#define SECTION_SIZE_BITS 30
arch/ia64/include/asm/sparsemem.h:#define SECTION_SIZE_BITS (30)
arch/s390/include/asm/sparsemem.h:#define SECTION_SIZE_BITS 28
arch/x86/include/asm/sparsemem.h:# define SECTION_SIZE_BITS 27
And it has proven to be an issue during boot on very large machines.
If hotplug memory is enabled, drivers/base/memory.c does this:
for (i = 0; i < NR_MEM_SECTIONS; i++) {
if (!present_section_nr(i))
continue;
err = add_memory_block(0, __nr_to_section(i), MEM_ONLINE,
0, BOOT);
if (!ret)
ret = err;
}
Which creates a sysfs directory for every 16MB of memory. As a result
I'm seeing up to 30 minutes spent here during boot:
c000000000248ee0 .__sysfs_add_one+0x28/0x128
c0000000002492a8 .sysfs_add_one+0x38/0x188

c0000000008d1b64 .driver_init+0x50/0x64
c000000000890378 .do_basic_setup+0x40/0xd4
I assume there are some O(n^2) issues in sysfs as we add all the memory
nodes. Bumping SECTION_SIZE_BITS to 256 MB drops the time to about 10
seconds and results in a much smaller /sys.

We have had issues in the past with ibm,os-term initiating shutdown of a
partition. This is confusing to the user, especially if panic_timeout is
non zero.
The temporary fix was to avoid calling ibm,os-term if a panic_timeout was set
and since we set it on every boot we basically never call ibm,os-term.
An extended version of ibm,os-term has since been implemented which gives us
the behaviour we want:
"When the platform supports extended ibm,os-term behavior, the return to the
RTAS will always occur unless there is a kernel assisted dump active as
initiated by an ibm,configure-kernel-dump call."
This patch checks for the ibm,extended-os-term property and calls ibm,os-term
if it exists.

I noticed /proc/sys/vm/zone_reclaim_mode was 0 on a ppc64 NUMA box. It gets
enabled via this:
/*
* If another node is sufficiently far away then it is better
* to reclaim pages in a zone before going off node.
*/
if (distance > RECLAIM_DISTANCE)
zone_reclaim_mode = 1;
Since we use the default value of 20 for REMOTE_DISTANCE and 20 for
RECLAIM_DISTANCE it never kicks in.
The local to remote bandwidth ratios can be quite large on System p
machines so it makes sense for us to reclaim clean pagecache locally before
going off node.
The patch below sets a smaller value for RECLAIM_DISTANCE and thus enables
zone reclaim.

Commit 0119536c, which added the assembly version of strncmp to
powerpc, mentions that it adds two instructions to the version from
boot/string.S to allow it to handle len=0. Unfortunately, it doesn't
always return 0 when that is the case. The length is passed in r5, but
the return value is passed back in r3. In certain cases, this will
happen to work. Otherwise it will pass back the address of the first
string as the return value.
This patch lifts the len <= 0 handling code from memcpy to handle that
case.
