powerpc: Rewrite FSL_BOOKE flush_cache_instruction() in C

2020-09-02T01:00:21+00:00

Nothing prevents flush_cache_instruction() from being writen in C.

Do it to improve readability and maintainability.

This function is only use by low level callers, it is not
intended to be used by module. Don't export it.

powerpc: Rewrite 4xx flush_cache_instruction() in C

2020-09-02T01:00:21+00:00

Nothing prevents flush_cache_instruction() from being writen in C.

Do it to improve readability and maintainability.

This function is very small and isn't called from assembly,
make it static inline in asm/cacheflush.h

powerpc: Remove flush_instruction_cache for book3s/32

2020-09-02T01:00:21+00:00

The only callers of flush_instruction_cache() are:

arch/powerpc/kernel/swsusp_booke.S:	bl flush_instruction_cache
arch/powerpc/mm/nohash/40x.c:	flush_instruction_cache();
arch/powerpc/mm/nohash/44x.c:	flush_instruction_cache();
arch/powerpc/mm/nohash/fsl_booke.c:	flush_instruction_cache();
arch/powerpc/platforms/44x/machine_check.c:			flush_instruction_cache();
arch/powerpc/platforms/44x/machine_check.c:		flush_instruction_cache();

This function is not used by book3s/32, drop it.

powerpc: Drop _nmask_and_or_msr()

2020-09-02T01:00:20+00:00

_nmask_and_or_msr() is only used at two places to set MSR_IP.

The SYNC is unnecessary as the users are not PowerPC 601.

Can be easily writen in C.

Do it, and drop _nmask_and_or_msr()

powerpc/32: Blacklist functions running with MMU disabled for kprobe

2020-06-02T10:59:11+00:00

kprobe does not handle events happening in real mode, all
functions running with MMU disabled have to be blacklisted.

powerpc/32: Split kexec low level code out of misc_32.S

2019-11-21T04:41:34+00:00

Almost half of misc_32.S is dedicated to kexec.
That's the relocation function for kexec.

Drop it into a dedicated kexec_relocate_32.S

powerpc: Convert flush_icache_range & friends to C

2019-11-07T12:35:37+00:00

Similar to commit 22e9c88d486a
("powerpc/64: reuse PPC32 static inline flush_dcache_range()")
this patch converts the following ASM symbols to C:
    flush_icache_range()
    __flush_dcache_icache()
    __flush_dcache_icache_phys()

This was done as we discovered a long-standing bug where the length of the
range was truncated due to using a 32 bit shift instead of a 64 bit one.

By converting these functions to C, it becomes easier to maintain.

flush_dcache_icache_phys() retains a critical assembler section as we must
ensure there are no memory accesses while the data MMU is disabled
(authored by Christophe Leroy). Since this has no external callers, it has
also been made static, allowing the compiler to inline it within
flush_dcache_icache_page().
