powerpc: Restore dbcr0 on user space exit
On BookE (Branch taken + Single Step) is as same as Branch Taken on BookS and in Linux we simulate BookS behavior for BookE as well. When doing so, in Branch taken handling we want to set DBCR0_IC but we update the current->thread->dbcr0 and not DBCR0. Now on 64bit the current->thread.dbcr0 (and other debug registers) is synchronized ONLY on context switch flow. But after handling Branch taken in debug exception if we return back to user space without context switch then single stepping change (DBCR0_ICMP) does not get written in h/w DBCR0 and Instruction Complete exception does not happen. This fixes using ptrace reliably on BookE-PowerPC lmbench latency test (lat_syscall) Results are (they varies a little on each run) 1) ./lat_syscall <action> /dev/shm/uImage action: Open read write stat fstat null Before: 3.8618 0.2017 0.2851 1.6789 0.2256 0.0856 After: 3.8580 0.2017 0.2851 1.6955 0.2255 0.0856 1) ./lat_syscall -P 2 -N 10 <action> /dev/shm/uImage action: Open read write stat fstat null Before: 4.1388 0.2238 0.3066 1.7106 0.2256 0.0856 After: 4.1413 0.2236 0.3062 1.7107 0.2256 0.0856 [ Slightly modified to avoid extra branch in the fast path on Book3S and fix build on all non-BookE 64-bit -- BenH ] Signed-off-by: Bharat Bhushan <bharat.bhushan@freescale.com> Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>
