| * powerpc: Fix 64bit __copy_tofrom_user() regressionMark Nelson2009-02-261-7/+31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This fixes a regression introduced by commit a4e22f02f5b6518c1484faea1f88d81802b9feac ("powerpc: Update 64bit __copy_tofrom_user() using CPU_FTR_UNALIGNED_LD_STD"). The same bug that existed in the 64bit memcpy() also exists here so fix it here too. The fix is the same as that applied to memcpy() with the addition of fixes for the exception handling code required for __copy_tofrom_user(). This stops us reading beyond the end of the source region we were told to copy. Signed-off-by: Mark Nelson <markn@au1.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

This commit allowed CPUs that have the CPU_FTR_UNALIGNED_LD_STD CPU feature bit present to do the memcpy() with unaligned load doubles. But, along with this came a bug where our final load double would read bytes beyond a page boundary and into the next (unmapped) page. This was caught by enabling CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC, The fix was to read only the number of bytes that we need to store rather than reading a full 8-byte doubleword and storing only a portion of that. In order to minimise the amount of existing code touched we use the original do_tail for the src_unaligned case. Below is an example of the regression, as reported by Sachin Sant: Unable to handle kernel paging request for data at address 0xc00000003f380000 Faulting instruction address: 0xc000000000039574 cpu 0x1: Vector: 300 (Data Access) at [c00000003baf3020] pc: c000000000039574: .memcpy+0x74/0x244 lr: d00000000244916c: .ext3_xattr_get+0x288/0x2f4 [ext3] sp: c00000003baf32a0 msr: 8000000000009032 dar: c00000003f380000 dsisr: 40000000 current = 0xc00000003e54b010 paca = 0xc000000000a53680 pid = 1840, comm = readahead enter ? for help [link register ] d00000000244916c .ext3_xattr_get+0x288/0x2f4 [ext3] [c00000003baf32a0] d000000002449104 .ext3_xattr_get+0x220/0x2f4 [ext3] (unreliab le) [c00000003baf3390] d00000000244a6e8 .ext3_xattr_security_get+0x40/0x5c [ext3] [c00000003baf3400] c000000000148154 .generic_getxattr+0x74/0x9c [c00000003baf34a0] c000000000333400 .inode_doinit_with_dentry+0x1c4/0x678 [c00000003baf3560] c00000000032c6b0 .security_d_instantiate+0x50/0x68 [c00000003baf35e0] c00000000013c818 .d_instantiate+0x78/0x9c [c00000003baf3680] c00000000013ced0 .d_splice_alias+0xf0/0x120 [c00000003baf3720] d00000000243e05c .ext3_lookup+0xec/0x134 [ext3] [c00000003baf37c0] c000000000131e74 .do_lookup+0x110/0x260 [c00000003baf3880] c000000000134ed0 .__link_path_walk+0xa98/0x1010 [c00000003baf3970] c0000000001354a0 .path_walk+0x58/0xc4 [c00000003baf3a20] c000000000135720 .do_path_lookup+0x138/0x1e4 [c00000003baf3ad0] c00000000013645c .path_lookup_open+0x6c/0xc8 [c00000003baf3b70] c000000000136780 .do_filp_open+0xcc/0x874 [c00000003baf3d10] c0000000001251e0 .do_sys_open+0x80/0x140 [c00000003baf3dc0] c00000000016aaec .compat_sys_open+0x24/0x38 [c00000003baf3e30] c00000000000855c syscall_exit+0x0/0x40 Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

It's feasible that the PowerPC version may wish to use my global one instead. The NOMMU vm_region struct defines areas of the physical memory map that are under mmap. This may include chunks of RAM or regions of memory mapped devices, such as flash. It is also used to retain copies of file content so that shareable private memory mappings of files can be made. As such, it may be compatible with what is described in the banner comment for PowerPC's vm_region struct.

Once again this is purely a performance tweak for Cell and Power6 - this has no effect on all the other 64bit powerpc chips. We can make these same changes to __copy_tofrom_user() because the basic copy algorithm is the same as in memcpy() - this version just has all the exception handling logic needed when copying to or from userspace as well as a special case for copying whole 4K pages that are page aligned. CPU_FTR_UNALIGNED_LD_STD CPU was added in commit 4ec577a28980a0790df3c3dfe9c81f6e2222acfb ("powerpc: Add new CPU feature: CPU_FTR_UNALIGNED_LD_STD").

| * | powerpc: Update 64bit memcpy() using CPU_FTR_UNALIGNED_LD_STDMark Nelson2008-11-051-2/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Update memcpy() to add two new feature sections: one for aligning the destination before copying and one for copying using aligned load and store doubles. These new feature sections will only affect Power6 and Cell because the CPU feature bit was only added to these two processors. Power6 gets its best performance in memcpy() when aligning neither the source nor the destination, while Cell gets its best performance when just the destination is aligned. But in order to save on CPU feature bits we can use the previously added CPU_FTR_CP_USE_DCBTZ feature bit to differentiate between Power6 and Cell (because CPU_FTR_CP_USE_DCBTZ was added to Cell but not Power6). The first feature section acts to nop out the branch that takes us to the code that aligns us to an eight byte boundary for the destination. We only want to nop out this branch on Power6. So the ALT_FTR_SECTION_END() for this feature section creates a test mask of the two feature bits ORed together and provides an expected result of just CPU_FTR_UNALIGNED_LD_STD, thus we nop out the branch if we're on a CPU that has CPU_FTR_UNALIGNED_LD_STD set and CPU_FTR_CP_USE_DCBTZ unset. For the second feature section added, if we're on a CPU that has the CPU_FTR_UNALIGNED_LD_STD bit set then we don't want to do the copy with aligned loads and stores (and the appropriate shifting left and right instructions), so we want to nop out the branch to .Lsrc_unaligned. The andi. used for this branch is moved to just above the branch because this allows us to nop out both instructions with just one feature section which gives us better performance and doesn't hurt readability which two separate feature sections did. Moving the andi. to just above the branch doesn't have any noticeable negative effect on the remaining 64bit processors (the ones that didn't have this feature bit added). On Cell this simple modification results in an improvement to measured memcpy() bandwidth of up to 50% in the hot cache case and up to 15% in the cold cache case. On Power6 we get memory bandwidth results that are up to three times faster in the hot cache case and up to 50% faster in the cold cache case. Commit 2a9294369bd020db89bfdf78b84c3615b39a5c84 ("powerpc: Add new CPU feature: CPU_FTR_CP_USE_DCBTZ") was where CPU_FTR_CP_USE_DCBTZ was added. To say that Cell gets its best performance in memcpy() with just the destination aligned is true but only for the reason that the indirect shift and rotate instructions, sld and srd, are microcoded on Cell. This means that either the destination or the source can be aligned, but not both, and seeing as we get better performance with the destination aligned we choose this option. While we're at it make a one line change from cmpldi r1,... to cmpldi cr1,... for consistency. Signed-off-by: Mark Nelson <markn@au1.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

* powerpc: New copy_4K_page()Mark Nelson2008-09-151-105/+93
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This new copy_4K_page() function was originally tuned for the best performance on the Cell processor, but after testing on more 64bit powerpc chips it was found that with a small modification it either matched the performance offered by the current mainline version or bettered it by a small amount. It was found that on a Cell-based QS22 blade the amount of system time measured when compiling a 2.6.26 pseries_defconfig decreased by 4%. Using the same test, a 4-way 970MP machine saw a decrease of 2% in system time. No noticeable change was seen on Power4, Power5 or Power6. The 4096 byte page is copied in thirty-two 128 byte strides. An initial setup loop executes dcbt instructions for the whole source page and dcbz instructions for the whole destination page. To do this, the cache line size is retrieved from ppc64_caches. A new CPU feature bit, CPU_FTR_CP_USE_DCBTZ, (introduced in the previous patch) is used to make the modification to this new copy routine - on Power4, 970 and Cell the feature bit is set so the setup loop is executed, but on all other 64bit chips the setup loop is nop'ed out.

* PAGE_ALIGN(): correctly handle 64-bit values on 32-bit architecturesAndrea Righi2008-07-241-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On 32-bit architectures PAGE_ALIGN() truncates 64-bit values to the 32-bit boundary. For example: u64 val = PAGE_ALIGN(size); always returns a value < 4GB even if size is greater than 4GB. The problem resides in PAGE_MASK definition (from include/asm-x86/page.h for example): #define PAGE_SHIFT 12 #define PAGE_SIZE (_AC(1,UL) << PAGE_SHIFT) #define PAGE_MASK (~(PAGE_SIZE-1)) ... #define PAGE_ALIGN(addr) (((addr)+PAGE_SIZE-1)&PAGE_MASK) The "~" is performed on a 32-bit value, so everything in "and" with PAGE_MASK greater than 4GB will be truncated to the 32-bit boundary. Using the ALIGN() macro seems to be the right way, because it uses typeof(addr) for the mask. Also move the PAGE_ALIGN() definitions out of include/asm-*/page.h in include/linux/mm.h.

* powerpc: Prevent memory corruption due to cache invalidation of unaligned ↵Andrew Lewis2008-07-011-2/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | DMA buffer On PowerPC processors with non-coherent cache architectures the DMA subsystem calls invalidate_dcache_range() before performing a DMA read operation. If the address and length of the DMA buffer are not aligned to a cache-line boundary this can result in memory outside of the DMA buffer being invalidated in the cache. If this memory has an uncommitted store then the data will be lost and a subsequent read of that address will result in an old value being returned from main memory. Only when the DMA buffer starts on a cache-line boundary and is an exact mutiple of the cache-line size can invalidate_dcache_range() be called, otherwise flush_dcache_range() must be called. flush_dcache_range() will first flush uncommitted writes, and then invalidate the cache.

This commit starts to implement logic to allow the following: BEGIN_FTR_SECTION or 1,1,1 FTR_SECTION_ELSE or 2,2,2 ALT_FTR_SECTION_END_IFSET(FOO) and the resulting code will be: or 1,1,1 or, or 2,2,2 We achieve this by extending the existing FTR macros. The current feature section semantic just becomes a special case, ie. if the else case is empty we nop out the default case. The key limitation is that the size of the else case must be less than or equal to the size of the default case. If the else case is smaller the remainder of the section is nop'ed. We let the linker put the else case code in with the rest of the text, so that relative branches from the else case are more likley to link, this has the disadvantage that we can't free the unused else cases. This commit introduces the required macro and linker script changes, but does not enable the patching of the alternative sections. We also need to update two hand-made section entries in reg.h and timex.h Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <michael@ellerman.id.au> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
* powerpc: Split out do_feature_fixups() from cputable.cMichael Ellerman2008-07-012-0/+57
| | | | | | | | | | | | | The logic to patch CPU feature sections lives in cputable.c, but these days it's used for CPU features as well as firmware features. Move it into it's own file for neatness and as preparation for some additions. While we're moving the code, we pull the loop body logic into a separate routine, and remove a comment which doesn't apply anymore.

* powerpc: Make create_branch() return errors if the branch target is too largeMichael Ellerman2008-07-011-2/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If you pass a target value to create_branch() which is more than 32MB - 4, or - 32MB away from the branch site, then it's impossible to create an immediate branch. The current code doesn't check, which will lead to us creating a branch to somewhere else - which is bad. For code that cares to check we return 0, which is easy to check for, and for code that doesn't at least we'll be creating an illegal instruction, rather than a branch to some random address.

* powerpc: Allow create_branch() to return errorsMichael Ellerman2008-07-011-8/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently create_branch() creates a branch instruction for you, and patches it into the call site. In some circumstances it would be nice to be able to create the instruction and patch it later, and also some code might want to check for errors in the branch creation before doing the patching. A future commit will change create_branch() to check for errors. For callers that don't care, replace create_branch() with patch_branch(), which just creates the branch and patches it directly. While we're touching all the callers, change to using unsigned int *, as this seems to match usage better. That allows (and requires) us to remove the volatile in the definition of vector in powermac/smp.c and mpc86xx_smp.c, that's correct because now that we're passing vector as an unsigned int * the compiler knows that it's value might change across the patch_branch() call.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We currently have a few routines for patching code in asm/system.h, because they didn't fit anywhere else. I'd like to clean them up a little and add some more, so first move them into a dedicated C file - they don't need to be inlined. While we're moving the code, drop create_function_call(), it's intended caller never got merged and will be replaced in future with something different.

* [POWERPC] Fix -Os kernel builds with newer gcc versionsKumar Gala2008-06-162-1/+230
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | GCC 4.4.x looks to be adding support for generating out-of-line register saves/restores based on: http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2008-04/msg01678.html This breaks the kernel if we enable CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE. To fix this we add the use the save/restore code from gcc and simplified it down for our needs (integer only). Additionally, we have to link this code into each module. The other solution was to add EXPORT_SYMBOL() which meant going through the trampoline which seemed nonsensical for these out-of-line routines. Finally, we add some checks to prom_init_check.sh to ignore the out-of-line save/restore functions.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The rheap allocation functions return a pointer, but the actual value is based on how the heap was initialized, and so it can be anything, e.g. an offset into a buffer. A ulong is a better representation of the value returned by the allocation functions. This patch changes all of the relevant rheap functions to use a unsigned long integers instead of a pointer. In case of an error, the value returned is a negative error code that has been cast to an unsigned long. The caller can use the IS_ERR_VALUE() macro to check for this. All code which calls the rheap functions is updated accordingly. Macros IS_MURAM_ERR() and IS_DPERR(), have been deleted in favor of IS_ERR_VALUE(). Also added error checking to rh_attach_region().
