      tile: fast-path unaligned memory access for tilegx · 2f9ac29e
      Chris Metcalf 提交于
      This change enables unaligned userspace memory access via a kernel
      fast path on tilegx.  The kernel tracks user PC/instruction pairs
      per-thread using a direct-mapped cache in userspace.  The cache
      maps those PC/instruction pairs to JIT'ed instruction sequences that
      load or store using byte-wide load store intructions and then
      synthesize 2-, 4- or 8-byte load or store results.  Once an
      instruction has been seen to generate an unaligned access once,
      subsequent hits on that instruction typically require overhead
      of only around 50 cycles if cache and TLB is hot.
      
      We support the prctl() PR_GET_UNALIGN / PR_SET_UNALIGN sys call to
      enable or disable unaligned fixups on a per-process basis.
      
      To do this we pull some of the tilepro unaligned support out of the
      single_step.c file; tilepro uses instruction disassembly for both
      single-step and unaligned access support.  Since tilegx actually has
      hardware singlestep support, though, it's cleaner to keep the tilegx
      unaligned access code in a separate file.  While we're at it,
      properly rename the tilepro-specific types, etc., to have tilepro
      suffixes instead of generic tile suffixes.

      arch/tile: bug fix: exec'ed task thought it was still single-stepping · 04f7a3f1
      Chris Metcalf 提交于
      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.

      arch/tile: Change struct sigcontext to be more useful · 74fca9da
      Chris Metcalf 提交于
      Rather than just using pt_regs, it now contains the actual saved
      state explicitly, similar to pt_regs.  By doing it this way, we
      provide a cleaner API for userspace (or equivalently, we avoid the
      need for libc to provide its own definition of sigcontext).
      
      While we're at it, move PT_FLAGS_xxx to where they are not visible
      from userspace.  And always pass siginfo and mcontext to signal
      handlers, even if they claim they don't need it, since sometimes
      they actually try to use it anyway in practice.

      arch/tile: Miscellaneous cleanup changes. · 0707ad30
      Chris Metcalf 提交于
      This commit is primarily changes caused by reviewing "sparse"
      and "checkpatch" output on our sources, so is somewhat noisy, since
      things like "printk() -> pr_err()" (or whatever) throughout the
      codebase tend to get tedious to read.  Rather than trying to tease
      apart precisely which things changed due to which type of code
      review, this commit includes various cleanups in the code:
      
      - sparse: Add declarations in headers for globals.
      - sparse: Fix __user annotations.
      - sparse: Using gfp_t consistently instead of int.
      - sparse: removing functions not actually used.
      - checkpatch: Clean up printk() warnings by using pr_info(), etc.;
        also avoid partial-line printks except in bootup code.
        - checkpatch: Use exposed structs rather than typedefs.
        - checkpatch: Change some C99 comments to C89 comments.
      
      In addition, a couple of minor other changes are rolled in
      to this commit:
      
      - Add support for a "raise" instruction to cause SIGFPE, etc., to be raised.
      - Remove some compat code that is unnecessary when we fully eliminate
        some of the deprecated syscalls from the generic syscall ABI.
      - Update the tile_defconfig to reflect current config contents.
