      arch/tile: Allow tilegx to build with either 16K or 64K page size · d5d14ed6
      Chris Metcalf 提交于
      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.)

      arch/tile: support 4KB page size as well as 64KB · 76c567fb
      Chris Metcalf 提交于
      The Tilera architecture traditionally supports 64KB page sizes
      to improve TLB utilization and improve performance when the
      hardware is being used primarily to run a single application.
      
      For more generic server scenarios, it can be beneficial to run
      with 4KB page sizes, so this commit allows that to be specified
      (by modifying the arch/tile/include/hv/pagesize.h header).
      
      As part of this change, we also re-worked the PTE management
      slightly so that PTE writes all go through a __set_pte() function
      where we can do some additional validation.  The set_pte_order()
      function was eliminated since the "order" argument wasn't being used.
      
      One bug uncovered was in the PCI DMA code, which wasn't properly
      flushing the specified range.  This was benign with 64KB pages,
      but with 4KB pages we were getting some larger flushes wrong.
      
      The per-cpu memory reservation code also needed updating to
      conform with the newer percpu stuff; before it always chose 64KB,
      and that was always correct, but with 4KB granularity we now have
      to pay closer attention and reserve the amount of memory that will
      be requested when the percpu code starts allocating.

      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.
