Hello PPC-developers,
I'm currently trying to benchmark access speeds to our PCIe-connected IP-cores
located inside our FPGA. On x86-based systems I was able to achieve bursts for
both read and write access. On PPC32, using an e500v2, I had no success at all
so far.

On p8 systems, with relocation on exception feature enabled we are seeing
kdump kernel hang at interrupt vector 0xc*4400. The reason is, with this

This patchset is a precursor for enabling deep idle states on powerpc,
when the local CPU timers stop. The tick broadcast framework in
the Linux Kernel today handles wakeup of such CPUs at their next timer event
by using an external clock device. At the expiry of this clock device, IPIs
are sent
