* tile: fix bug in get_user() for 4-byte valuesChris Metcalf2012-06-161-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | The definition of 32-bit values in the 64-bit tilegx architecture is that they should be sign-extended regardless of whether they are considered signed or unsigned by the compiler. Accordingly, we need to use an "ld4s" rather than "ld4u" to load and sign-extend for get_user(). This fixes glibc bug 14238 (see http://sourceware.org/bugzilla), introduced during the 3.5 merge window. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>
* arch/tile: optimize get_user/put_user and friendsChris Metcalf2012-05-251-90/+132
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Use direct load/store for the get_user/put_user. Previously, we would call out to a helper routine that would do the appropriate thing and then return, handling the possible exception internally. Now we inline the load or store, along with a "we succeeded" indication in a register; if the load or store faults, we write a "we failed" indication into the same register and then return to the following instruction. This is more efficient and gives us more compact code, as well as being more in line with what other architectures do. The special futex assembly source file for TILE-Gx also disappears in this change; we just use the same inlining idiom there as well, putting the appropriate atomic operations directly into futex_atomic_op_inuser() (and thus into the FUTEX_WAIT function). The underlying atomic copy_from_user, copy_to_user functions were renamed using the (cryptic) x86 convention as copy_from_user_ll and copy_to_user_ll.

* arch/tile: Various cleanups.Chris Metcalf2010-08-131-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This change rolls up random cleanups not representing any actual bugs. - Remove a stale CONFIG_ value from the default tile_defconfig - Remove unused tns_atomic_xxx() family of methods from <asm/atomic.h> - Optimize get_order() using Tile's "clz" instruction - Fix a bad hypervisor upcall name (not currently used in Linux anyway) - Use __copy_in_user_inatomic() name for consistency, and export it - Export some additional hypervisor driver I/O upcalls and some homecache calls - Remove the obfuscating MEMCPY_TEST_WH64 support code - Other stray comment cleanups, #if 0 removal, etc. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>
* arch/tile: Miscellaneous cleanup changes.Chris Metcalf2010-07-061-10/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This commit is primarily changes caused by reviewing "sparse" and "checkpatch" output on our sources, so is somewhat noisy, since things like "printk() -> pr_err()" (or whatever) throughout the codebase tend to get tedious to read. Rather than trying to tease apart precisely which things changed due to which type of code review, this commit includes various cleanups in the code: - sparse: Add declarations in headers for globals. - sparse: Fix __user annotations. - sparse: Using gfp_t consistently instead of int. - sparse: removing functions not actually used. - checkpatch: Clean up printk() warnings by using pr_info(), etc.; also avoid partial-line printks except in bootup code. - checkpatch: Use exposed structs rather than typedefs. - checkpatch: Change some C99 comments to C89 comments. In addition, a couple of minor other changes are rolled in to this commit: - Add support for a "raise" instruction to cause SIGFPE, etc., to be raised. - Remove some compat code that is unnecessary when we fully eliminate some of the deprecated syscalls from the generic syscall ABI. - Update the tile_defconfig to reflect current config contents.

* arch/tile: core support for Tilera 32-bit chips.Chris Metcalf2010-06-041-0/+578
This change is the core kernel support for TILEPro and TILE64 chips. No driver support (except the console driver) is included yet. This includes the relevant Linux headers in asm/; the low-level low-level "Tile architecture" headers in arch/, which are shared with the hypervisor, etc., and are build-system agnostic; and the relevant hypervisor headers in hv/.
