2008-04-2985xx: Additional fixes and cleanup of MP codeKumar Gala
* adjust __spin_table alignment to match ePAPR v0.94 spec * loop over all cpus when determing who is up. This fixes an issue if the "boot cpu" isn't core0. The "boot cpu" will already be in the cpu_up_mask so there is no harm * Added some protection in the code to ensure proper behavior. These changes are explicitly needed but don't hurt: - Added eieio to ensure the "hot word" of the table is written after all other table updates have occurred. - Added isync to ensure we don't prefetch loading of table entries until we a released These issues we raised by Dave Liu.

2008-03-2685xx: Update multicore boot mechanism to ePAPR v0.81 specKumar Gala
The following changes are needed to be inline with ePAPR v0.81: * r4, r5 and now always set to 0 on boot release * r7 is used to pass the size of the initial map area (IMA) * EPAPR_MAGIC value changed for book-e processors * changes in the spin table layout * spin table supports a 64-bit physical release address Signed-off-by: Kumar Gala <galak@kernel.crashing.org>
2008-03-2685xx: Added support for multicore boot mechanismKumar Gala
Added the cpu command that provides a generic mechanism to get status, reset, and release secondary cores in multicore processors. Added support for using the ePAPR defined spin-table mechanism on 85xx. Signed-off-by: Kumar Gala <galak@kernel.crashing.org>
