Merge branch 'next' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/benh/powerpc
Pull powerpc updates from Benjamin Herrenschmidt: "Here are the powerpc goodies for 3.5. Main highlights are: - Support for the NX crypto engine in Power7+ - A bunch of Anton goodness, including some micro optimization of our syscall entry on Power7 - I converted a pile of our thermal control drivers to the new i2c APIs (essentially turning the old therm_pm72 into a proper set of windfarm drivers). That's one more step toward removing the deprecated i2c APIs, there's still a few drivers to fix, but we are getting close - kexec/kdump support for 47x embedded cores The big missing thing here is no updates from Freescale. Not sure what's up here, but with Kumar not working for them anymore things are a bit in a state of flux in that area." * 'next' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/benh/powerpc: (71 commits) powerpc: Fix irq distribution Revert "powerpc/hw-breakpoint: Use generic hw-breakpoint interfaces for new PPC ptrace flags" powerpc: Fixing a cputhread code documentation powerpc/crypto: Enable the PFO-based encryption device powerpc/crypto: Build files for the nx device driver powerpc/crypto: debugfs routines and docs for the nx device driver powerpc/crypto: SHA512 hash routines for nx encryption powerpc/crypto: SHA256 hash routines for nx encryption powerpc/crypto: AES-XCBC mode routines for nx encryption powerpc/crypto: AES-GCM mode routines for nx encryption powerpc/crypto: AES-ECB mode routines for nx encryption powerpc/crypto: AES-CTR mode routines for nx encryption powerpc/crypto: AES-CCM mode routines for nx encryption powerpc/crypto: AES-CBC mode routines for nx encryption powerpc/crypto: nx driver code supporting nx encryption powerpc/pseries: Enable the PFO-based RNG accelerator powerpc/pseries/hwrng: PFO-based hwrng driver powerpc/pseries: Add PFO support to the VIO bus powerpc/pseries: Add pseries update notifier for OFDT prop changes powerpc/pseries: Add new hvcall constants to support PFO ...

+Description:
+
+ These debugfs interfaces are built by the nx-crypto driver, built in
+arch/powerpc/crypto/nx.
+
+Error Detection
+===============
+
+errors:
+- A u32 providing a total count of errors since the driver was loaded. The
+only errors counted here are those returned from the hcall, H_COP_OP.
+
+last_error:
+- The most recent non-zero return code from the H_COP_OP hcall. -EBUSY is not
+recorded here (the hcall will retry until -EBUSY goes away).
+
+last_error_pid:
+- The process ID of the process who received the most recent error from the
+hcall.
+
+Device Use
+==========
+
+aes_bytes:
+- The total number of bytes encrypted using AES in any of the driver's
+supported modes.
+
+aes_ops:
+- The total number of AES operations submitted to the hardware.
+
+sha256_bytes:
+- The total number of bytes hashed by the hardware using SHA-256.
+
+sha256_ops:
+- The total number of SHA-256 operations submitted to the hardware.
+
+sha512_bytes:
+- The total number of bytes hashed by the hardware using SHA-512.
+
+sha512_ops:
+- The total number of SHA-512 operations submitted to the hardware.
