      tile: avoid recursive backtrace faults · 3ef23111
      Chris Metcalf 提交于
      This change adds support for avoiding recursive backtracer crashes;
      we haven't seen this in practice other than when things are seriously
      corrupt, but it may help avoid losing the root cause of a crash.
      
      Also, don't abort kernel backtracers for invalid userspace PC's.
      If we do, we lose the ability to backtrace through a userspace
      call to a bad address above PAGE_OFFSET, even though that it can
      be perfectly reasonable to continue the backtrace in such a case.

      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.

      tile: support "memmap" boot parameter · 77f8c740
      Chris Metcalf 提交于
      This change adds support for the "memmap" boot parameter similar
      to what x86 provides.  The tile version supports "memmap=1G$5G",
      for example, as a way to reserve a 1 GB range starting at PA 5GB.
      The memory is reserved via bootmem during startup, and we create a
      suitable "struct resource" marked as "Reserved" so you can see the
      range reported by /proc/iomem.  Up to 64 such regions can currently
      be reserved on the boot command line.
      
      We do not support the x86 options "memmap=nn@ss" (force some memory
      to be available at the given address) since it's pointless to try to
      have Linux use memory the Tilera hypervisor hasn't given it.  We do
      not support "memmap=nn#ss" to add an ACPI range for later processing,
      since we don't support ACPI.  We do not support "memmap=exactmap"
      since we don't support reading the e820 information from the BIOS
      like x86 does.  I did add support for "memmap=nn" (and the synonym
      "mem=nn") which cap the highest PA value at "nn"; these are both
      just a synonym for the existing tile boot option "maxmem".

      tile: various console improvements · bda0f5ba
      Chris Metcalf 提交于
      This change improves and cleans up the tile console.
      
      - We enable HVC_IRQ support on tilegx, with the addition of a new
        Tilera hypervisor API for tilegx to allow a console IPI.  If IPI
        support is not available we fall back to the previous polling mode.
      
      - We simplify the earlyprintk code to use CON_BOOT and eliminate some
        of the other supporting earlyprintk code.
      
      - A new tile_console_write() primitive is used to send output to
        the console and is factored out of the hvc_tile driver.
        This lets us support a "sim_console" boot argument to allow using
        simulator hooks to send output to the "console" as a slightly
        faster alternative to emulating the hardware more directly.

      Now, this uses SLUB pretty much unmodified, but as it is the -rt kernel
      with CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT set, spinlocks are mutexes, although they do
      disable migration. But the SLUB code is relatively lockless, and the
      spin_locks there are raw_spin_locks (not converted to mutexes), thus I
      believe this bug can happen in mainline without -rt features. The -rt
      patch is just good at triggering mainline bugs ;-)
      
      Anyway, looking at where this crashed, it seems that the page variable
      can be NULL when passed to the node_match() function (which does not
      check if it is NULL). When this happens we get the above panic.
      
      As page is only used in slab_alloc() to check if the node matches, if
      it's NULL I'm assuming that we can say it doesn't and call the
      __slab_alloc() code. Is this a correct assumption?
