Fedora 9 works on Efika without the separate 'device-tree supplement',
thanks to the kernel's own fixups. With one exception -- because 'CHRP'
still appears on the 'machine:' line in /proc/cpuinfo, the installer
misdetects the platform and misconfigures yaboot, putting it into a PReP
boot partition instead of in the /boot filesystem where the Efika's
firmware could find it.
The kernel's fixups for Efika already correct one instance of 'chrp', in
the 'device_type' property. This fixes it in the 'CODEGEN,description'
property too, since that's what's exposed to userspace in /proc/cpuinfo.

Prune back Efika fixups to only include changes that are actually required
to get a working system. Most of the drivers can accept the compatible
properties, even if they don't match the what is recommented in the generic
names recommended practice document.
This patch also adds extra checks so that fixups are not performed blindly.
Instead, the code first verifies that the device tree is faulty before
making any changes. This way, if the Efika firmware is updated to fix
these issues, then the fixups will no longer get applied.
At this point; here is the list of fixups needed for the efika:
1. If the device_type property on the root node is 'chrp', then Linux won't
boot. Change device_type to 'efika' to avoid this condition
2. Add full interrupt list to the bestcomm node. In actual fact, the
bestcomm interrupts property is technically correct, it just doesn't
expose the same granularity as the device driver expects. All other
5200 device trees provide a separate irq number for each bestcomm
channel. Rather than hack the driver, it's simpler to fix it up
3. /builtin/sound node is missing an interrupts property
4. /builtin/ethernet node is missing a phy-handle property and the
device driver doesn't know what to do without one.

The new network driver fec_mpc52xx will not work on efika because the
firmware does not provide all required properties.
http://www.powerdeveloper.org/asset/by-id/46 has a Forth script to
create more properties. But only the phy stuff is required to get a
working network.
This should go into the kernel because its appearently
impossible to boot the script via tftp and then load the real boot
binary (yaboot or zimage).

The built-in IDE controller is configured in legacy mode, but the PCI
registers advertise native mode. Force the PCI class into legacy
mode. This allows pata_via to access two drives.
The Pegasos specific irq enforcement in the via82cxxx driver must stay
because there is apparently no generic way to setup irq per channel.
Tested on Pegasos2 with firmware version 20040810, and two IDE disks.

A Power6 can give up CPU cycles on a dedicated CPU (as opposed to a
shared CPU) to other shared processors if the administrator asks for it
(via the HMC).
This enables that to work properly on P6.
This just involves setting a bit in the CAS structure as well as the
VPA. To donate cycles, a CPU has to have all SMT threads idle and
have the donate bit set in the VPA. Then call H_CEDE.
The reason why shared processors just aren't used is because dedicated
CPUs are guaranteed an actual processor, yet the system is still able to
increase the capacity of the shared CPU pool.
Also rename the VPA's cpuctls_task_attrs field to a more accurate name.

For PAPR partitions with large amounts of memory, the firmware has an
alternative, more compact representation for the information about the
memory in the partition and its NUMA associativity information. This
adds the code to the kernel to parse this alternative representation.
The other part of this patch is telling the firmware that we can
handle the alternative representation. There is however a subtlety
here, because the firmware will invoke a reboot if the memory
representation we request is different from the representation that
firmware is currently using. This is because firmware can't change
the representation on the fly. Further, some firmware versions used
on POWER5+ machines have a bug where this reboot leaves the machine
with an altered value of load-base, which will prevent any kernel
booting until it is reset to the normal value (0x4000). Because of
this bug, we do NOT set fake_elf.rpanote.new_mem_def = 1, and thus we
do not request the new representation on POWER5+ and earlier machines.
We do request the new representation on POWER6, which uses the
ibm,client-architecture-support call.

This adds code to look at the properties firmware puts in the device
tree to determine what compatibility mode the partition is in on
POWER6 machines, and set the ELF aux vector AT_HWCAP and AT_PLATFORM
entries appropriately.
Specifically, we look at the cpu-version property in the cpu node(s).
If that contains a "logical" PVR value (of the form 0x0f00000x), we
call identify_cpu again with this PVR value. A value of 0x0f000001
indicates the partition is in POWER5+ compatibility mode, and a value
of 0x0f000002 indicates "POWER6 architected" mode, with various
extensions disabled. We also look for various other properties:
ibm,dfp, ibm,purr and ibm,spurr.

This patch adds full cell iommu support (and iommu disabled mode).
It implements mapping/unmapping of iommu pages on demand using the
standard powerpc iommu framework. It also supports running with
iommu disabled for machines with less than 2GB of memory. (The
default is off in that case, though it can be forced on with the
kernel command line option iommu=force).
