2011-05-04arch/tile: tolerate disabling CONFIG_BLK_DEV_INITRDChris Metcalf1-0/+6
The code accidentally was relying on this configuration option being selected. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>
2011-05-04arch/tile: properly flush the I$ when unloading kernel modulesChris Metcalf1-1/+7
Otherwise, in principle, there could be stale I$ data present next time the page that previously held the kernel module code was used to run some new code. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>
2011-05-04arch/tile: disable SD_WAKE_AFFINE flag on CPU/NODE scheduling domainChris Metcalf1-18/+57
This allows processes to spread more effectively to multiple cores (particularly important on 64-core chips!). Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>
2011-05-04arch/tile: allow nonatomic stores to interoperate with fast atomic syscallsChris Metcalf2-36/+27
This semantic was already true for atomic operations within the kernel, and this change makes it true for the fast atomic syscalls (__NR_cmpxchg and __NR_atomic_update) as well. Previously, user-space had to use the fast atomic syscalls exclusively to update memory, since raw stores could lose a race with the atomic update code even when the atomic update hadn't actually modified the value. With this change, we no longer write back the value to memory if it hasn't changed. This allows certain types of idioms in user space to work as expected, e.g. "atomic exchange" to acquire a spinlock, followed by a raw store of zero to release the lock.

2011-05-02arch/tile: support TIF_NOTIFY_RESUMEChris Metcalf7-100/+87
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.

2011-05-02arch/tile: refactor backtracing codeChris Metcalf6-131/+93
This change is the result of some work to make the backtrace code more shareable between kernel, libc, and gdb. For the kernel, some good effects are to eliminate the hacky "VirtualAddress" typedef in favor of "unsigned long", to eliminate a bunch of spurious kernel doc comments, to remove the dead "bt_read_memory" function, and to use "__tilegx__" in #ifdefs instead of "TILE_CHIP".

2011-03-24lib, arch: add filter argument to show_mem and fix private implementationsDavid Rientjes1-1/+1
Commit ddd588b5dd55 ("oom: suppress nodes that are not allowed from meminfo on oom kill") moved lib/show_mem.o out of lib/lib.a, which resulted in build warnings on all architectures that implement their own versions of show_mem(): lib/lib.a(show_mem.o): In function `show_mem': show_mem.c:(.text+0x1f4): multiple definition of `show_mem' arch/sparc/mm/built-in.o:(.text+0xd70): first defined here The fix is to remove __show_mem() and add its argument to show_mem() in all implementations to prevent this breakage. Architectures that implement their own show_mem() actually don't do anything with the argument yet, but they could be made to filter nodes that aren't allowed in the current context in the future just like the generic implementation.

2011-03-23bitops: remove minix bitops from asm/bitops.hAkinobu Mita1-1/+0
minix bit operations are only used by minix filesystem and useless by other modules. Because byte order of inode and block bitmaps is different on each architecture like below: m68k: big-endian 16bit indexed bitmaps h8300, microblaze, s390, sparc, m68knommu: big-endian 32 or 64bit indexed bitmaps m32r, mips, sh, xtensa: big-endian 32 or 64bit indexed bitmaps for big-endian mode little-endian bitmaps for little-endian mode Others: little-endian bitmaps In order to move minix bit operations from asm/bitops.h to architecture independent code in minix filesystem, this provides two config options. CONFIG_MINIX_FS_BIG_ENDIAN_16BIT_INDEXED is only selected by m68k. CONFIG_MINIX_FS_NATIVE_ENDIAN is selected by the architectures which use native byte order bitmaps (h8300, microblaze, s390, sparc, m68knommu, m32r, mips, sh, xtensa). The architectures which always use little-endian bitmaps do not select these options. Finally, we can remove minix bit operations from asm/bitops.h for all architectures.

Commit 8d7718aa082aaf30a0b4989e1f04858952f941bc changed "int" to "u32" in the prototypes but not the definition. I missed this when I saw the patch go by on LKML.

2011-03-11futex: Sanitize cmpxchg_futex_value_locked APIMichel Lespinasse1-3/+4
The cmpxchg_futex_value_locked API was funny in that it returned either the original, user-exposed futex value OR an error code such as -EFAULT. This was confusing at best, and could be a source of livelocks in places that retry the cmpxchg_futex_value_locked after trying to fix the issue by running fault_in_user_writeable(). This change makes the cmpxchg_futex_value_locked API more similar to the get_futex_value_locked one, returning an error code and updating the original value through a reference argument.

2011-03-10arch/tile: fix deadlock bugs in rwlock implementationChris Metcalf2-141/+103
The first issue fixed in this patch is that pending rwlock write locks could lock out new readers; this could cause a deadlock if a read lock was held on cpu 1, a write lock was then attempted on cpu 2 and was pending, and cpu 1 was interrupted and attempted to re-acquire a read lock. The write lock code was modified to not lock out new readers. The second issue fixed is that there was a narrow race window where a tns instruction had been issued (setting the lock value to "1") and the store instruction to reset the lock value correctly had not yet been issued. In this case, if an interrupt occurred and the same cpu then tried to manipulate the lock, it would find the lock value set to "1" and spin forever, assuming some other cpu was partway through updating it. The fix is to enforce an interrupt critical section around the tns/store pair. In addition, this change now arranges to always validate that after a readlock we have not wrapped around the count of readers, which is only eight bits. Since these changes make the rwlock "fast path" code heavier weight, I decided to move all the rwlock code all out of line, leaving only the conventional spinlock code with fastpath inlines. Since the read_lock and read_trylock implementations ended up very similar, I just expressed read_lock in terms of read_trylock. As part of this change I also eliminate support for the now-obsolete tns_atomic mode. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>
2011-03-10drivers/edac: provide support for tile architectureChris Metcalf3-1/+119

2011-03-10arch/tile: support 4KB page size as well as 64KBChris Metcalf18-135/+235
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.

2011-03-01arch/tile: fix two bugs in the backtracer codeChris Metcalf1-9/+19

2011-03-01arch/tile: use a cleaner technique to enable interrupt for cpu_idle()Chris Metcalf1-11/+5
Previously we used iret to atomically return to kernel PL with interrupts enabled.

2011-03-01arch/tile: stop disabling INTCTRL_1 interrupts during hypervisor downcallsChris Metcalf1-49/+5
The problem was that this could lead to IPIs being disabled during the softirq processing after a hypervisor downcall (e.g. for I/O), since both IPI and device interrupts use the INCTRL_1 downcall mechanism. When this happened at the wrong time, it could lead to deadlock. Luckily, we were already maintaining the per-interrupt state we need, and using it in the proper way in the hypervisor, so all we had to do was to change Linux to stop blocking downcall interrupts for the entire length of the downcall. (Now they're blocked while we're executing the downcall routine itself, but not while we're executing any subsequent softirq routines.) The hypervisor is doing a very small amount of work it no longer needs to do (masking INTCTRL_1 on entry to the client interrupt routine), but doing so means that older versions of Tile Linux will continue to work with a current hypervisor, so that seems reasonable.

2011-03-01arch/tile: fix __ndelay etc to work betterChris Metcalf5-11/+34
The current implementations of __ndelay and __udelay call a hypervisor service to delay, but the hypervisor service isn't actually implemented very well, and the consensus is that Linux should handle figuring this out natively and not use a hypervisor service. By converting nanoseconds to cycles, and then spinning until the cycle counter reaches the desired cycle, we get several benefits: first, we are sensitive to the actual clock speed; second, we use less power by issuing a slow SPR read once every six cycles while we delay; and third, we properly handle the case of an interrupt by exiting at the target time rather than after some number of cycles.

2011-03-01arch/tile: bug fix: exec'ed task thought it was still single-steppingChris Metcalf3-2/+26
To handle single-step, tile mmap's a page of memory in the process space for each thread and uses it to construct a version of the instruction that we want to single step. If the process exec's, though, we lose that mapping, and the kernel needs to be aware that it will need to recreate it if the exec'ed process than tries to single-step as well. Also correct some int32_t to s32 for better kernel style. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>

2011-01-25percpu: align percpu readmostly subsection to cachelineTejun Heo1-1/+1
Currently percpu readmostly subsection may share cachelines with other percpu subsections which may result in unnecessary cacheline bounce and performance degradation. This patch adds @cacheline parameter to PERCPU() and PERCPU_VADDR() linker macros, makes each arch linker scripts specify its cacheline size and use it to align percpu subsections. This is based on Shaohua's x86 only patch. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Cc: Shaohua Li <shaohua.li@intel.com>
