      tile: use __ro_after_init instead of tile-specific __write_once · 14e73e78
      Chris Metcalf 提交于
      The semantics of the old tile __write_once are the same as the
      newer generic __ro_after_init, so rename them all and get rid
      of the tile-specific version.
      
      This does not enable actual support for __ro_after_init,
      which had been dropped from the tile architecture before the
      initial upstreaming was done, since we had at that time switched
      to using 16MB huge pages to map the kernel.

      tile: implement gettimeofday() via vDSO · 4a556f4f
      Chris Metcalf 提交于
      This change creates the framework for vDSO calls, makes the existing
      rt_sigreturn() mechanism use it, and adds a fast gettimeofday().
      Now that we need to expose the vDSO address to userspace, we add
      AT_SYSINFO_EHDR to the set of aux entries provided to userspace.
      (You can disable any extra vDSO support by booting with vdso=0,
      but the rt_sigreturn vDSO page will still be provided.)
      
      Note that glibc has supported the tile vDSO since release 2.17.

      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: 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.
