LoongArch: mm: Refactor TLB exception handlers
This patch simplifies TLB load, store and modify exception handlers: 1. Reduce instructions, such as alu/csr and memory access; 2. Execute tlb search instruction only in the fast path; 3. Return directly from the fast path for both normal and huge pages; 4. Re-tab the assembly for better vertical alignment. And fixes the concurrent modification issue of fast path for huge pages. This issue will occur in the following steps: CPU-1 (In TLB exception) CPU-2 (In THP splitting) 1: Load PMD entry (HUGE=1) 2: Goto huge path 3: Store PMD entry (HUGE=0) 4: Reload PMD entry (HUGE=0) 5: Fill TLB entry (PA is incorrect) This patch also slightly improves the TLB processing performance: * Normal pages: 2.15%, Huge pages: 1.70%. #include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <unistd.h> #include <sys/mman.h> int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { size_t page_size; size_t mem_size; size_t off; void *base; int flags; int i; if (argc < 2) { fprintf(stderr, "%s MEM_SIZE [HUGE]\n", argv[0]); return -1; } page_size = sysconf(_SC_PAGESIZE); flags = MAP_PRIVATE | MAP_ANONYMOUS; mem_size = strtoul(argv[1], NULL, 10); if (argc > 2) flags |= MAP_HUGETLB; for (i = 0; i < 10; i++) { base = mmap(NULL, mem_size, PROT_READ, flags, -1, 0); if (base == MAP_FAILED) { fprintf(stderr, "Map memory failed!\n"); return -1; } for (off = 0; off < mem_size; off += page_size) *(volatile int *)(base + off); munmap(base, mem_size); } return 0; } Signed-off-by: Rui Wang <wangrui@loongson.cn> Signed-off-by: Huacai Chen <chenhuacai@loongson.cn>
