* tile: fast-path unaligned memory access for tilegxChris Metcalf2013-08-131-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This change enables unaligned userspace memory access via a kernel fast path on tilegx. The kernel tracks user PC/instruction pairs per-thread using a direct-mapped cache in userspace. The cache maps those PC/instruction pairs to JIT'ed instruction sequences that load or store using byte-wide load store intructions and then synthesize 2-, 4- or 8-byte load or store results. Once an instruction has been seen to generate an unaligned access once, subsequent hits on that instruction typically require overhead of only around 50 cycles if cache and TLB is hot. We support the prctl() PR_GET_UNALIGN / PR_SET_UNALIGN sys call to enable or disable unaligned fixups on a per-process basis. To do this we pull some of the tilepro unaligned support out of the single_step.c file; tilepro uses instruction disassembly for both single-step and unaligned access support. Since tilegx actually has hardware singlestep support, though, it's cleaner to keep the tilegx unaligned access code in a separate file. While we're at it, properly rename the tilepro-specific types, etc., to have tilepro suffixes instead of generic tile suffixes. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>

* | arch/tile: fix up some issues in calling do_work_pending()Chris Metcalf2012-05-161-2/+7
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | First, we were at risk of handling thread-info flags, in particular do_signal(), when returning from kernel space. This could happen after a failed kernel_execve(), or when forking a kernel thread. The fix is to test in do_work_pending() for user_mode() and return immediately if so; we already had this test for one of the flags, so I just hoisted it to the top of the function. Second, if a ptraced process updated the callee-saved registers in the ptregs struct and then processed another thread-info flag, we would overwrite the modifications with the original callee-saved registers. To fix this, we add a register to note if we've already saved the registers once, and skip doing it on additional passes through the loop. To avoid a performance hit from the couple of extra instructions involved, I modified the GET_THREAD_INFO() macro to be guaranteed to be one instruction, then bundled it with adjacent instructions, yielding an overall net savings.

| | | | | | | | | | | This support is required for CONFIG_KEYS, NFSv4 kernel DNS, etc. The change is slightly more complex than the minimal thing, since I took advantage of having to go into the assembly code to just move a bunch of stuff into C code: specifically, the schedule(), do_async_page_fault(), do_signal(), and single_step_once() support, in addition to the TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME support.

* arch/tile: support 4KB page size as well as 64KBChris Metcalf2011-03-101-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The Tilera architecture traditionally supports 64KB page sizes to improve TLB utilization and improve performance when the hardware is being used primarily to run a single application. For more generic server scenarios, it can be beneficial to run with 4KB page sizes, so this commit allows that to be specified (by modifying the arch/tile/include/hv/pagesize.h header). As part of this change, we also re-worked the PTE management slightly so that PTE writes all go through a __set_pte() function where we can do some additional validation. The set_pte_order() function was eliminated since the "order" argument wasn't being used. One bug uncovered was in the PCI DMA code, which wasn't properly flushing the specified range. This was benign with 64KB pages, but with 4KB pages we were getting some larger flushes wrong. The per-cpu memory reservation code also needed updating to conform with the newer percpu stuff; before it always chose 64KB, and that was always correct, but with 4KB granularity we now have to pay closer attention and reserve the amount of memory that will be requested when the percpu code starts allocating.

* arch/tile: catch up on various minor cleanups.Chris Metcalf2010-07-061-5/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | None of these changes fix any actual bugs, but are just various cleanups that fell out along the way. In particular, some unused #defines and includes are removed, PREFETCH_STRIDE is added (the default is right for our shipping chips, but wrong for our next generation), our tile-specific prefetching code is removed so the (identical) generic prefetching code can be used instead, a comment is fixed to be proper GPL and not just a "paste GPL here" token, a "//" comment is converted to "/* */", etc. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com> Acked-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>
* arch/tile: Miscellaneous cleanup changes.Chris Metcalf2010-07-061-1/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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/+165
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/.
