2013-05-09ARC: [mm] Aliasing VIPT dcache support 2/4Vineet Gupta
This is the meat of the series which prevents any dcache alias creation by always keeping the U and K mapping of a page congruent. If a mapping already exists, and other tries to access the page, prev one is flushed to physical page (wback+inv) Essentially flush_dcache_page()/copy_user_highpage() create K-mapping of a page, but try to defer flushing, unless U-mapping exist. When page is actually mapped to userspace, update_mmu_cache() flushes the K-mapping (in certain cases this can be optimised out) Additonally flush_cache_mm(), flush_cache_range(), flush_cache_page() handle the puring of stale userspace mappings on exit/munmap... flush_anon_page() handles the existing U-mapping for anon page before kernel reads it via the GUP path. Note that while not complete, this is enough to boot a simple dynamically linked Busybox based rootfs Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com>
2013-05-09ARC: [mm] Aliasing VIPT dcache support 1/4Vineet Gupta

2013-05-07ARC: [mm] Lazy D-cache flush (non aliasing VIPT)Vineet Gupta
flush_dcache_page( ) is MM hook to ensure that a page has consistent views between kernel and userspace. Thus it is called when * kernel writes to a page which at some later point could get mapped to userspace (so kernel mapping needs to be flushed-n-inv) * kernel is about to read from a page with possible userspace mappings (so userspace mappings needs to be made coherent with kernel ones) However for Non aliasing VIPT dcache, any userspace mapping will always be congruent to kernel mapping. Thus d-cache need need not be flushed at all (or delayed indefinitely). The only reason it does need to be flushed is when mapping code pages. Since icache doesn't snoop dcache, those dirty dcache lines need to be written back to memory and icache line invalidated so that icache lines fetch will get the right data. Decent gains on LMBench fork/exec/sh and File I/O micro-benchmarks.

2013-05-07ARC: [mm] consolidate icache/dcache sync codeVineet Gupta

2013-05-07ARC: [mm] optimise icache flush for user mappingsVineet Gupta
ARC icache doesn't snoop dcache thus executable pages need to be made coherent before mapping into userspace in flush_icache_page(). However ARC700 CDU (hardware cache flush module) requires both vaddr (index in cache) as well as paddr (tag match) to correctly identify a line in the VIPT cache. A typical ARC700 SoC has aliasing icache, thus the paddr only based flush_icache_page() API couldn't be implemented efficiently. It had to loop thru all possible alias indexes and perform the invalidate operation (ofcourse the cache op would only succeed at the index(es) where tag matches - typically only 1, but the cost of visiting all the cache-bins needs to paid nevertheless). Turns out however that the vaddr (along with paddr) is available in update_mmu_cache() hence better suits ARC icache flush semantics. With both vaddr+paddr, exactly one flush operation per line is done. Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com>
2013-05-07ARC: [mm] optimize needless full mm TLB flush on munmapVineet Gupta
munmap ends up calling tlb_flush() which for ARC was flushing the entire TLB unconditionally (by moving the MMU to a new ASID) do_munmap unmap_region unmap_vmas unmap_single_vma unmap_page_range tlb_start_vma zap_pud_range tlb_end_vma() tlb_finish_mmu tlb_flush() ---> unconditional flush_tlb_mm() So even a single page munmap, a frequent operation when uClibc dynamic linker (ldso) is loading the dependent shared libraries, would move the the ASID multiple times - needlessly invalidating the pre-faulted TLB entries (and increasing the rate of ASID wraparound + full TLB flush). This is now optimised to only be called if tlb->full_mm (which means for exit/execve) cases only. And for those cases, flush_tlb_mm() is already optimised to be a no-op for mm->mm_users == 0. So essentially there are no mmore full mm flushes - except for fork which anyhow needs it for properly COW'ing parent address space. munmap now needs to do TLB range flush, which is implemented with tlb_end_vma() Results ------- 1. ASID now consistenly moves by 4 during a simple ls (as opposed to 5 or 7 before). 2.

2013-04-08ARC: Add implicit compiler barrier to raw_local_irq* functionsChristian Ruppert
ARC irqsave/restore macros were missing the compiler barrier, causing a stale load in irq-enabled region be used in irq-safe region, despite being changed, because the register holding the value was still live. The problem manifested as random crashes in timer code when stress testing ARCLinux (3.9-rc3) on a !SMP && !PREEMPT_COUNT Here's the exact sequence which caused this: (0). tv1[x] <----> t1 <---> t2 (1). mod_timer(t1) interrupted after it calls timer_pending() (2). mod_timer(t2) completes (3). mod_timer(t1) resumes but messes up the list (4). __runt_timers( ) uses bogus timer_list entry / crashes in timer->function Essentially mod_timer() was racing against itself and while the spinlock serialized the tv1[] timer link list, timer_pending() called outside the spinlock, cached timer link list element in a register. With low register pressure (and a deep register file), lack of barrier in raw_local_irqsave() as well as preempt_disable (!PREEMPT_COUNT version), there was nothing to force gcc to reload across the spinlock, causing a stale value in reg be used for link list manipulation - ensuing a corruption. ARcompact disassembly which shows the culprit generated code: mod_timer: push_s blink mov_s r13,r0 # timer, timer .. ###### timer_pending( ) ld_s r3,[r13] # <------ <variable>.entry.next LOADED brne r3, 0, @.L163 .L163: .. ###### spin_lock_irq( ) lr r5, [status32] # flags bic r4, r5, 6 # temp, flags, and.f 0, r5, 6 # flags, flag.nz r4 ###### detach_if_pending( ) begins tst_s r3,r3 <-------------- # timer_pending( ) checks timer->entry.next # r3 is NOT reloaded by gcc, using stale value beq.d @.L169 mov.eq r0,0 ##### detach_timer( ): __list_del( ) ld r4,[r13,4] # <variable>.entry.prev, D.31439 st r4,[r3,4] # <variable>.prev, D.31439 st r3,[r4] # <variable>.next, D.30246 We initially tried to fix this by adding barrier() to preempt_* macros for !PREEMPT_COUNT but Linus clarified that it was anything but wrong. http://www.spinics.net/lists/kernel/msg1512709.html [vgupta: updated commitlog] Reported-by/Signed-off-by: Christian Ruppert <christian.ruppert@abilis.com> Cc: Christian Ruppert <christian.ruppert@abilis.com> Cc: Pierrick Hascoet <pierrick.hascoet@abilis.com> Debugged-by/Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2013-03-20ARC: Fix the typo in event identifier flags used by ptraceVineet Gupta
orig_r8_IS_EXCPN and orig_r8_IS_BRKPT were same values due to a copy/paste error. Although it looks bad and is wrong, it really doesn't affect gdb working. orig_r8_IS_BRKPT is the one relevant to debugging (breakpoints), since it is used to provide EFA vs. ERET to a ptrace "stop_pc" request. So when gdb has inserted a breakpoint, orig_r8_IS_BRKPT is already set, and anything else (i.e. orig_r8_IS_EXCPN) becoming same as it, really doesn't hurt gdb. The corollary case, could be nasty but nobody uses the ptrace "stop_pc" request in that case Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com>

2013-02-27ARC: gdbserver using regset interface possibly brokenVineet Gupta
ptrace regset interface relies on ELF_NGREG for ceiling the size of user request. So any larger request (even if legit) would be clipped. The existing def of ELF_NGREG didn't use user_regs_struct and was technically one placeholder short (stop_pc) - although the current code would still work because pt_regs includes a bunch of extra fields, making ELF_NGREG >= sizeof(struct user_regs_struct)/sizeof(long) But we need to remove this ambiguity, specially since pt_regs should NOT be directly associated with with anything userspace-ish.

All the current platforms can work with 0x8000_0000 based dma_addr_t since the Bus Bridges typically ignore the top bit (the only excpetion was Angel4 PCI-AHB bridge which we no longer care for). That way we don't need plat-specific cpu-addr to bus-addr conversion. Hooks still provided - just in case a platform has an obscure device which say needs 0 based bus address. That way <asm/dma_mapping.h> no longer needs to unconditinally include <plat/dma_addr.h> Also verfied that on Angel4 board, other peripherals (IDE-disk / EMAC) work fine with 0x8000_0000 based dma addresses.

2013-02-15ARC: [Review] Multi-platform image #2: Board callback InfrastructureVineet Gupta
The orig platform code orgnaization was singleton design pattern - only one platform (and board thereof) would build at a time. Thus any platform/board specific code (e.g. irq init, early init ...) expected by ARC common code was exported as well defined set of APIs, with only ONE instance building ever. Now with multiple-platform build requirement, that design of code no longer holds - multiple board specific calls need to build at the same time - so ARC common code can't use the API approach, it needs a callback based design where each board registers it's specific set of functions, and at runtime, depending on board detection, the callbacks are used from the registry. This commit adds all the infrastructure, where board specific callbacks are specified as a "maThine description". All the hooks are placed in right spots, no board callbacks registered yet (with MACHINE_STARt/END constructs) so the hooks will not run. Next commit will actually convert the platform to this infrastructure. Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com> Cc: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de> Acked-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>
2013-02-15ARC: Add support for ioremap_prot APIGilad Ben-Yossef
Implement ioremap_prot() to allow mapping IO memory with variable protection via TLB. Implementing this allows the /dev/mem driver to use its generic access() VMA callback, which in turn allows ptrace to examine data in memory mapped regions mapped via /dev/mem, such as Arc DCCM. The end result is that it is possible to examine values of variables placed into DCCM in user space programs via GDB.

2013-02-15ARC: SMP supportVineet Gupta
ARC common code to enable a SMP system + ISS provided SMP extensions. ARC700 natively lacks SMP support, hence some of the core features are are only enabled if SoCs have the necessary h/w pixie-dust. This includes: -Inter Processor Interrupts (IPI) -Cache coherency -load-locked/store-conditional ... The low level exception handling would be completely broken in SMP because we don't have hardware assisted stack switching. Thus a fair bit of this code is repurposing the MMU_SCRATCH reg for event handler prologues to keep them re-entrant. Many thanks to Rajeshwar Ranga for his initial "major" contributions to SMP Port (back in 2008), and to Noam Camus and Gilad Ben-Yossef for help with resurrecting that in 3.2 kernel (2012). Note that this platform code is again singleton design pattern - so multiple SMP platforms won't build at the moment - this deficiency is addressed in subsequent patches within this series.

2013-02-15ARC: [plat-arcfpga] Static platform device for CONFIG_SERIAL_ARCVineet Gupta
N.B. This is old style of hardcoding platform device specific info in code and it's instantiation thererof using platform_add_devices(). Subsequent patches replace this with DeviceTree based runtime probe. This patch has been retained just as an example of "don't-do-this" for newer kernel ports.
