In the powerpc-pseries specific implementation, the IO hotplug event is handled in the user space (drmgr tool). But update the device tree and /dev/mem access to allocate buffers for some RTAS calls are restricted when the kernel lockdown feature is enabled. For the DLPAR IO REMOVE, the corresponding device tree nodes and properties have to be removed from the device tree after the device disable. The user space removes the device tree nodes by updating /proc/ppc64/ofdt which is not allowed under system lockdown is enabled. This restriction can be resolved by moving the complete IO hotplug handling in the kernel. But the pseries implementation need user interaction to power off and to remove device from the slot during hotplug event handling. To overcome the /proc/ppc64/ofdt restriction, this patch extends the /sys/kernel/dlpar interface and provides ‘dt remove index <drc_index>’ to the user space so that drmgr tool can remove the corresponding device tree nodes based on DRC index from the device tree.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
