2005-09-09[PATCH] Separate pci bits out of struct device_nodePaul Mackerras
This patch pulls the PCI-related junk out of struct device_node and puts it in a separate structure, struct pci_dn. The device_node now just has a void * pointer in it, which points to a struct pci_dn for nodes that represent PCI devices. It could potentially be used in future for device-specific data for other sorts of devices, such as virtual I/O devices. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

2005-09-08[PATCH] Make sparc64 use setup-res.cDavid S. Miller
There were three changes necessary in order to allow sparc64 to use setup-res.c: 1) Sparc64 roots the PCI I/O and MEM address space using parent resources contained in the PCI controller structure. I'm actually surprised no other platforms do this, especially ones like Alpha and PPC{,64}. These resources get linked into the iomem/ioport tree when PCI controllers are probed. So the hierarchy looks like this: iomem --| PCI controller 1 MEM space --| device 1 device 2 etc. PCI controller 2 MEM space --| ... ioport --| PCI controller 1 IO space --| ... PCI controller 2 IO space --| ... You get the idea. The drivers/pci/setup-res.c code allocates using plain iomem_space and ioport_space as the root, so that wouldn't work with the above setup. So I added a pcibios_select_root() that is used to handle this. It uses the PCI controller struct's io_space and mem_space on sparc64, and io{port,mem}_resource on every other platform to keep current behavior. 2) quirk_io_region() is buggy. It takes in raw BUS view addresses and tries to use them as a PCI resource. pci_claim_resource() expects the resource to be fully formed when it gets called. The sparc64 implementation would do the translation but that's absolutely wrong, because if the same resource gets released then re-claimed we'll adjust things twice. So I fixed up quirk_io_region() to do the proper pcibios_bus_to_resource() conversion before passing it on to pci_claim_resource(). 3) I was mistakedly __init'ing the function methods the PCI controller drivers provide on sparc64 to implement some parts of these routines. This was, of course, easy to fix. So we end up with the following, and that nasty SPARC64 makefile ifdef in drivers/pci/Makefile is finally zapped. Signed-off-by: David S.

2005-09-07[PATCH] CHECK_IRQ_PER_CPU() to avoid dead code in __do_IRQ()Karsten Wiese
IRQ_PER_CPU is not used by all architectures. This patch introduces the macros ARCH_HAS_IRQ_PER_CPU and CHECK_IRQ_PER_CPU() to avoid the generation of dead code in __do_IRQ(). ARCH_HAS_IRQ_PER_CPU is defined by architectures using IRQ_PER_CPU in their include/asm_ARCH/irq.h file.

2005-09-07[PATCH] compat: be more consistent about [ug]id_tStephen Rothwell
When I first wrote the compat layer patches, I was somewhat cavalier about the definition of compat_uid_t and compat_gid_t (or maybe I just misunderstood :-)). This patch makes the compat types much more consistent with the types we are being compatible with and hopefully will fix a few bugs along the way. compat type type in compat arch __compat_[ug]id_t __kernel_[ug]id_t __compat_[ug]id32_t __kernel_[ug]id32_t compat_[ug]id_t [ug]id_t The difference is that compat_uid_t is always 32 bits (for the archs we care about) but __compat_uid_t may be 16 bits on some.

2005-09-07[PATCH] FUTEX_WAKE_OP: pthread_cond_signal() speedupJakub Jelinek
ATM pthread_cond_signal is unnecessarily slow, because it wakes one waiter (which at least on UP usually means an immediate context switch to one of the waiter threads). This waiter wakes up and after a few instructions it attempts to acquire the cv internal lock, but that lock is still held by the thread calling pthread_cond_signal. So it goes to sleep and eventually the signalling thread is scheduled in, unlocks the internal lock and wakes the waiter again. Now, before 2003-09-21 NPTL was using FUTEX_REQUEUE in pthread_cond_signal to avoid this performance issue, but it was removed when locks were redesigned to the 3 state scheme (unlocked, locked uncontended, locked contended). Following scenario shows why simply using FUTEX_REQUEUE in pthread_cond_signal together with using lll_mutex_unlock_force in place of lll_mutex_unlock is not enough and probably why it has been disabled at that time: The number is value in cv->__data.__lock. thr1 thr2 thr3 0 pthread_cond_wait 1 lll_mutex_lock (cv->__data.__lock) 0 lll_mutex_unlock (cv->__data.__lock) 0 lll_futex_wait (&cv->__data.__futex, futexval) 0 pthread_cond_signal 1 lll_mutex_lock (cv->__data.__lock) 1 pthread_cond_signal 2 lll_mutex_lock (cv->__data.__lock) 2 lll_futex_wait (&cv->__data.__lock, 2) 2 lll_futex_requeue (&cv->__data.__futex, 0, 1, &cv->__data.__lock) # FUTEX_REQUEUE, not FUTEX_CMP_REQUEUE 2 lll_mutex_unlock_force (cv->__data.__lock) 0 cv->__data.__lock = 0 0 lll_futex_wake (&cv->__data.__lock, 1) 1 lll_mutex_lock (cv->__data.__lock) 0 lll_mutex_unlock (cv->__data.__lock) # Here, lll_mutex_unlock doesn't know there are threads waiting # on the internal cv's lock Now, I believe it is possible to use FUTEX_REQUEUE in pthread_cond_signal, but it will cost us not one, but 2 extra syscalls and, what's worse, one of these extra syscalls will be done for every single waiting loop in pthread_cond_*wait. We would need to use lll_mutex_unlock_force in pthread_cond_signal after requeue and lll_mutex_cond_lock in pthread_cond_*wait after lll_futex_wait. Another alternative is to do the unlocking pthread_cond_signal needs to do (the lock can't be unlocked before lll_futex_wake, as that is racy) in the kernel. I have implemented both variants, futex-requeue-glibc.patch is the first one and futex-wake_op{,-glibc}.patch is the unlocking inside of the kernel. The kernel interface allows userland to specify how exactly an unlocking operation should look like (some atomic arithmetic operation with optional constant argument and comparison of the previous futex value with another constant). It has been implemented just for ppc*, x86_64 and i?86, for other architectures I'm including just a stub header which can be used as a starting point by maintainers to write support for their arches and ATM will just return -ENOSYS for FUTEX_WAKE_OP. The requeue patch has been (lightly) tested just on x86_64, the wake_op patch on ppc64 kernel running 32-bit and 64-bit NPTL and x86_64 kernel running 32-bit and 64-bit NPTL. With the following benchmark on UP x86-64 I get: for i in nptl-orig nptl-requeue nptl-wake_op; do echo time elf/ld.so --library-path .:$i /tmp/bench; \ for j in 1 2; do echo ( time elf/ld.so --library-path .:$i /tmp/bench ) 2>&1; done; done time elf/ld.so --library-path .:nptl-orig /tmp/bench real 0m0.655s user 0m0.253s sys 0m0.403s real 0m0.657s user 0m0.269s sys 0m0.388s time elf/ld.so --library-path .:nptl-requeue /tmp/bench real 0m0.496s user 0m0.225s sys 0m0.271s real 0m0.531s user 0m0.242s sys 0m0.288s time elf/ld.so --library-path .:nptl-wake_op /tmp/bench real 0m0.380s user 0m0.176s sys 0m0.204s real 0m0.382s user 0m0.175s sys 0m0.207s The benchmark is at: http://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2005-03/txt00001.txt Older futex-requeue-glibc.patch version is at: http://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2005-03/txt00002.txt Older futex-wake_op-glibc.patch version is at: http://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2005-03/txt00003.txt Will post a new version (just x86-64 fixes so that the patch applies against pthread_cond_signal.S) to libc-hacker ml soon. Attached is the kernel FUTEX_WAKE_OP patch as well as a simple-minded testcase that will not test the atomicity of the operation, but at least check if the threads that should have been woken up are woken up and whether the arithmetic operation in the kernel gave the expected results.

2005-09-05[PATCH] SPARSEMEM EXTREMEBob Picco
A new option for SPARSEMEM is ARCH_SPARSEMEM_EXTREME. Architecture platforms with a very sparse physical address space would likely want to select this option. For those architecture platforms that don't select the option, the code generated is equivalent to SPARSEMEM currently in -mm. I'll be posting a patch on ia64 ml which uses this new SPARSEMEM feature. ARCH_SPARSEMEM_EXTREME makes mem_section a one dimensional array of pointers to mem_sections. This two level layout scheme is able to achieve smaller memory requirements for SPARSEMEM with the tradeoff of an additional shift and load when fetching the memory section. The current SPARSEMEM -mm implementation is a one dimensional array of mem_sections which is the default SPARSEMEM configuration. The patch attempts isolates the implementation details of the physical layout of the sparsemem section array. ARCH_SPARSEMEM_EXTREME depends on 64BIT and is by default boolean false. I've boot tested under aim load ia64 configured for ARCH_SPARSEMEM_EXTREME. I've also boot tested a 4 way Opteron machine with !ARCH_SPARSEMEM_EXTREME and tested with aim.

2005-08-29[PATCH] Dynamic hugepage addresses for ppc64David Gibson
Paulus, I think this is now a reasonable candidate for the post-2.6.13 queue. Relax address restrictions for hugepages on ppc64 Presently, 64-bit applications on ppc64 may only use hugepages in the address region from 1-1.5T. Furthermore, if hugepages are enabled in the kernel config, they may only use hugepages and never normal pages in this area. This patch relaxes this restriction, allowing any address to be used with hugepages, but with a 1TB granularity. That is if you map a hugepage anywhere in the region 1TB-2TB, that entire area will be reserved exclusively for hugepages for the remainder of the process's lifetime. This works analagously to hugepages in 32-bit applications, where hugepages can be mapped anywhere, but with 256MB (mmu segment) granularity. This patch applies on top of the four level pagetable patch (http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/linuxppc64/patch?id=1936).

2005-08-29[PATCH] ppc64: Remove physbase from the lmb_property structMichael Ellerman
We no longer need the lmb code to know about abs and phys addresses, so remove the physbase variable from the lmb_property struct. Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <michael@ellerman.id.au> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
2005-08-29[PATCH] ppc64: Remove redundant abs_to_phys() macroMichael Ellerman
abs_to_phys() is a macro that turns out to do nothing, and also has the unfortunate property that it's not the inverse of phys_to_abs() on iSeries. The following is for my benefit as much as everyone else. With CONFIG_MSCHUNKS enabled, the lmb code is changed such that it keeps a physbase variable for each lmb region. This is used to take the possibly discontiguous lmb regions and present them as a contiguous address space beginning from zero. In this context each lmb region's base address is its "absolute" base address, and its physbase is it's "physical" address (from Linux's point of view). The abs_to_phys() macro does the mapping from "absolute" to "physical". Note: This is not related to the iSeries mapping of physical to absolute (ie. Hypervisor) addresses which is maintained with the msChunks structure. And the msChunks structure is not controlled via CONFIG_MSCHUNKS. Once upon a time you could compile for non-iSeries with CONFIG_MSCHUNKS enabled. But these days CONFIG_MSCHUNKS depends on CONFIG_PPC_ISERIES, so for non-iSeries code abs_to_phys() is a no-op. On iSeries we always have one lmb region which spans from 0 to systemcfg->physicalMemorySize (arch/ppc64/kernel/iSeries_setup.c line 383). This region has a base (ie. absolute) address of 0, and a physbase address of 0 (as calculated in lmb_analyze() (arch/ppc64/kernel/lmb.c line 144)). On iSeries, abs_to_phys(aa) is defined as lmb_abs_to_phys(aa), which finds the lmb region containing aa (and there's only one, ie. 0), and then does: return lmb.memory.region[0].physbase + (aa - lmb.memory.region[0].base) physbase == base == 0, so you're left with "return aa". So remove abs_to_phys(), and lmb_abs_to_phys() which is the implementation of abs_to_phys() for iSeries.

2005-08-29[PATCH] ppc64: Remove redundant uses of physRpn_to_absRpnMichael Ellerman
physRpn_to_absRpn is a no-op on non-iSeries platforms, remove the two redundant calls. There's only one caller on iSeries so fold the logic in there so we can get rid of it completely. Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <michael@ellerman.id.au> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
