2012-07-18arch/tile: provide kernel support for the tilegx USB shimChris Metcalf
This change adds support for accessing the USB shim from within the kernel. Note that this change by itself does not allow the kernel to act as a host or as a device; it merely exposes the built-in on-chip hardware to the kernel. The <arch/usb_host.h> and <arch/usb_host_def.h> headers are empty at the moment because the kernel does not require any types or definitions specific to the tilegx USB shim; the generic USB core code is all we need. The headers are left in as stubs so that we don't need to modify the hypervisor header (drv_usb_host_intf.h) from upstream. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>
2012-07-18tile pci: enable IOMMU to support DMA for legacy devicesChris Metcalf
This change uses the TRIO IOMMU to map the PCI DMA space and physical memory at different addresses. We also now use the dma_mapping_ops to provide support for non-PCI DMA, PCIe DMA (64-bit) and legacy PCI DMA (32-bit). We use the kernel's software I/O TLB framework (i.e. bounce buffers) for the legacy 32-bit PCI device support since there are a limited number of TLB entries in the IOMMU and it is non-trivial to handle indexing, searching, matching, etc. For 32-bit devices the performance impact of bounce buffers should not be a concern.

2012-07-18tilegx pci: support I/O to arbitrarily-cached pagesChris Metcalf
The tilegx PCI root complex support (currently only in linux-next) is limited to pages that are homed on cached in the default manner, i.e. "hash-for-home". This change supports delivery of I/O data to pages that are cached in other ways (locally on a particular core, uncached, user-managed incoherent, etc.). A large part of the change is supporting flushing pages from cache on particular homes so that we can transition the data that we are delivering to or from the device appropriately. The new homecache_finv* routines handle this. Some changes to page_table_range_init() were also required to make the fixmap code work correctly on tilegx; it hadn't been used there before. We also remove some stub mark_caches_evicted_*() routines that were just no-ops anyway. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>

2012-07-11arch/tile: provide kernel support for the tilegx mPIPE shimChris Metcalf
The TILE-Gx chip includes a packet-processing network engine called mPIPE ("Multicore Programmable Intelligent Packet Engine"). This change adds support for using the mPIPE engine from within the kernel. The engine has more functionality than is exposed here, but to keep the kernel code and binary simpler, this is a subset of the full API designed to enable standard Linux networking only.

2012-07-11arch/tile: introduce GXIO IORPC framework for tilegxChris Metcalf
The GXIO I/O RPC subsystem handles exporting I/O hardware resources to Linux and to applications running under Linux. For instance, memory which is made available for I/O DMA must be mapped by an I/O TLB; that means that such memory must be locked down by Linux, so that it is not swapped or otherwise reused, as long as those I/O TLB entries are active. Similarly, configuring direct hardware access introduces new validation requirements. If a user application registers memory, Linux must ensure that the supplied virtual addresses are valid, and turn them into client physical addresses. Similarly, when Linux then supplies those client physical addresses to the Tilera hypervisor, it must in turn validate those before turning them into the real physical addresses which are required by the hardware. To the extent that these sorts of activities were required on previous TILE architecture processors, they were implemented in a device-specific fashion. This meant that every I/O device had its own Tilera hypervisor driver, its own Linux driver, and in some cases its own user-level library support. There was a large amount of more-or-less functionally identical code in different places, particularly in the different Linux drivers. For TILE-Gx, this support has been generalized into a common framework, known as the I/O RPC framework or just IORPC. The two "gxio" directories (one for headers, one for sources) start with just a few files in each with this infrastructure commit, but after adding support for the on-board I/O shims for networking, PCI, USB, crypto, compression, I2CS, etc., there end up being about 20 files in each directory. More information on the IORPC framework is in the <hv/iorpc.h> header, included in this commit. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>

2012-06-16tile: fix bug in get_user() for 4-byte valuesChris Metcalf
The definition of 32-bit values in the 64-bit tilegx architecture is that they should be sign-extended regardless of whether they are considered signed or unsigned by the compiler. Accordingly, we need to use an "ld4s" rather than "ld4u" to load and sign-extend for get_user().

2012-05-25tile: fix bug where fls(0) was not returning 0Chris Metcalf
This is because __builtin_clz(0) returns 64 for the "undefined" case of 0, since the builtin just does a right-shift 32 and "clz" instruction. So, use the alpha approach of casting to u32 and using __builtin_clzll(). Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>

2012-05-25arch/tile: fix hardwall for tilegx and generalize for idn and ipiChris Metcalf
The hardwall drain code was not properly implemented for tilegx, just tilepro, so you couldn't reliably restart an application that made use of the udn. In addition, the code was only applicable to the udn (user dynamic network). On tilegx there is a second user network that is available (the "idn"), and there is support for having I/O shims deliver user-level interrupts to applications ("ipi") which functions in a very similar way to the inter-core permissions used for udn/idn. So this change also generalizes the code from supporting just the udn to supports udn/idn/ipi on tilegx. By default we now use /dev/hardwall/{udn,idn,ipi} with separate minor numbers for the three devices. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>
2012-05-25arch/tile: support multiple huge page sizes dynamicallyChris Metcalf
This change adds support for a new "super" bit in the PTE, using the new arch_make_huge_pte() method. The Tilera hypervisor sees the bit set at a given level of the page table and gangs together 4, 16, or 64 consecutive pages from that level of the hierarchy to create a larger TLB entry. One extra "super" page size can be specified at each of the three levels of the page table hierarchy on tilegx, using the "hugepagesz" argument on the boot command line. A new hypervisor API is added to allow Linux to tell the hypervisor how many PTEs to gang together at each level of the page table. To allow pre-allocating huge pages larger than the buddy allocator can handle, this change modifies the Tilera bootmem support to put all of memory on tilegx platforms into bootmem. As part of this change I eliminate the vestigial CONFIG_HIGHPTE support, which never worked anyway, and eliminate the hv_page_size() API in favor of the standard vma_kernel_pagesize() API.

2012-05-25arch/tile: support <asm/cachectl.h> header for cacheflush() syscallChris Metcalf
We already had a syscall that did some dcache flushing, but it was not used in practice. Make it MIPS compatible instead so it can do both the DCACHE and ICACHE actions. We have code that wants to be able to use the ICACHE flush mode from userspace so this change enables that. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>
2012-05-25arch/tile: Allow tilegx to build with either 16K or 64K page sizeChris Metcalf
This change introduces new flags for the hv_install_context() API that passes a page table pointer to the hypervisor. Clients can explicitly request 4K, 16K, or 64K small pages when they install a new context. In practice, the page size is fixed at kernel compile time and the same size is always requested every time a new page table is installed. The <hv/hypervisor.h> header changes so that it provides more abstract macros for managing "page" things like PFNs and page tables. For example there is now a HV_DEFAULT_PAGE_SIZE_SMALL instead of the old HV_PAGE_SIZE_SMALL. The various PFN routines have been eliminated and only PA- or PTFN-based ones remain (since PTFNs are always expressed in fixed 2KB "page" size). The page-table management macros are renamed with a leading underscore and take page-size arguments with the presumption that clients will use those macros in some single place to provide the "real" macros they will use themselves. I happened to notice the old hv_set_caching() API was totally broken (it assumed 4KB pages) so I changed it so it would nominally work correctly with other page sizes. Tag modules with the page size so you can't load a module built with a conflicting page size. (And add a test for SMP while we're at it.) Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>
2012-05-25arch/tile: optimize get_user/put_user and friendsChris Metcalf
Use direct load/store for the get_user/put_user. Previously, we would call out to a helper routine that would do the appropriate thing and then return, handling the possible exception internally. Now we inline the load or store, along with a "we succeeded" indication in a register; if the load or store faults, we write a "we failed" indication into the same register and then return to the following instruction. This is more efficient and gives us more compact code, as well as being more in line with what other architectures do. The special futex assembly source file for TILE-Gx also disappears in this change; we just use the same inlining idiom there as well, putting the appropriate atomic operations directly into futex_atomic_op_inuser() (and thus into the FUTEX_WAIT function). The underlying atomic copy_from_user, copy_to_user functions were renamed using the (cryptic) x86 convention as copy_from_user_ll and copy_to_user_ll.

2012-05-25arch/tile: allow building Linux with transparent huge pages enabledChris Metcalf
The change adds some infrastructure for managing tile pmd's more generally, using pte_pmd() and pmd_pte() methods to translate pmd values to and from ptes, since on TILEPro a pmd is really just a nested structure holding a pgd (aka pte). Several existing pmd methods are moved into this framework, and a whole raft of additional pmd accessors are defined that are used by the transparent hugepage framework. The tile PTE now has a "client2" bit. The bit is used to indicate a transparent huge page is in the process of being split into subpages. This change also fixes a generic bug where the return value of the generic pmdp_splitting_flush() was incorrect. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>
2012-05-25arch/tile: use interrupt critical sections lessChris Metcalf
In general we want to avoid ever touching memory while within an interrupt critical section, since the page fault path goes through a different path from the hypervisor when in an interrupt critical section, and we carefully decided with tilegx that we didn't need to support this path in the kernel. (On tilepro we did implement that path as part of supporting atomic instructions in software.) In practice we always need to touch the kernel stack, since that's where we store the interrupt state before releasing the critical section, but this change cleans up a few things. The IRQ_ENABLE macro is split up so that when we want to enable interrupts in a deferred way (e.g. for cpu_idle or for interrupt return) we can read the per-cpu enable mask before entering the critical section. The cache-migration code is changed to use interrupt masking instead of interrupt critical sections. And, the interrupt-entry code is changed so that we defer loading "tp" from per-cpu data until after we have released the interrupt critical section.

2012-05-16arch/tile: fix up some issues in calling do_work_pending()Chris Metcalf
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.

2012-05-09sched/numa: Rewrite the CONFIG_NUMA sched domain supportPeter Zijlstra
The current code groups up to 16 nodes in a level and then puts an ALLNODES domain spanning the entire tree on top of that. This doesn't reflect the numa topology and esp for the smaller not-fully-connected machines out there today this might make a difference. Therefore, build a proper numa topology based on node_distance(). Since there's no fixed numa layers anymore, the static SD_NODE_INIT and SD_ALLNODES_INIT aren't usable anymore, the new code tries to construct something similar and scales some values either on the number of cpus in the domain and/or the node_distance() ratio.

2012-04-02arch/tile: various bugs in stack backtracerChris Metcalf
Fix a long-standing bug in the stack backtracer where we would print garbage to the console instead of kernel function names, if the kernel wasn't built with symbol support (e.g. mboot). Make sure to tag every line of userspace backtrace output if we actually have the mmap_sem, since that way if there's no tag, we know that it's because we couldn't trylock the semaphore. Stop doing a TLB flush and examining page tables during backtrace. Instead, just trust that __copy_from_user_inatomic() will properly fault and return a failure, which it should do in all cases. Fix a latent bug where the backtracer would directly examine a signal context in user space, rather than copying it safely to kernel memory first. This meant that a race with another thread could potentially have caused a kernel panic. Guard against unaligned sp when trying to restart backtrace at an interrupt or signal handler point in the kernel backtracer. Report kernel symbolic information for the call instruction rather than for the following instruction. We still report the actual numeric address corresponding to the instruction after the call, for the sake of consistency with the normal expectations for stack backtracers.
