      x86: move stack_canary into irq_stack · 947e76cd
      Brian Gerst 提交于
      Impact: x86_64 percpu area layout change, irq_stack now at the beginning
      
      Now that the PDA is empty except for the stack canary, it can be removed.
      The irqstack is moved to the start of the per-cpu section.  If the stack
      protector is enabled, the canary overlaps the bottom 48 bytes of the irqstack.
      
      tj: * updated subject
          * dropped asm relocation of irq_stack_ptr
          * updated comments a bit
          * rebased on top of stack canary changes

      percpu: add optimized generic percpu accessors · 6dbde353
      Ingo Molnar 提交于
      It is an optimization and a cleanup, and adds the following new
      generic percpu methods:
      
        percpu_read()
        percpu_write()
        percpu_add()
        percpu_sub()
        percpu_and()
        percpu_or()
        percpu_xor()
      
      and implements support for them on x86. (other architectures will fall
      back to a default implementation)
      
      The advantage is that for example to read a local percpu variable,
      instead of this sequence:
      
       return __get_cpu_var(var);
      
       ffffffff8102ca2b:	48 8b 14 fd 80 09 74 	mov    -0x7e8bf680(,%rdi,8),%rdx
       ffffffff8102ca32:	81
       ffffffff8102ca33:	48 c7 c0 d8 59 00 00 	mov    $0x59d8,%rax
       ffffffff8102ca3a:	48 8b 04 10          	mov    (%rax,%rdx,1),%rax
      
      We can get a single instruction by using the optimized variants:
      
       return percpu_read(var);
      
       ffffffff8102ca3f:	65 48 8b 05 91 8f fd 	mov    %gs:0x7efd8f91(%rip),%rax
      
      I also cleaned up the x86-specific APIs and made the x86 code use
      these new generic percpu primitives.
      
      tj: * fixed generic percpu_sub() definition as Roel Kluin pointed out
          * added percpu_and() for completeness's sake
          * made generic percpu ops atomic against preemption

      x86: merge 64 and 32 SMP percpu handling · 9939ddaf
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      Now that pda is allocated as part of percpu, percpu doesn't need to be
      accessed through pda.  Unify x86_64 SMP percpu access with x86_32 SMP
      one.  Other than the segment register, operand size and the base of
      percpu symbols, they behave identical now.
      
      This patch replaces now unnecessary pda->data_offset with a dummy
      field which is necessary to keep stack_canary at its place.  This
      patch also moves per_cpu_offset initialization out of init_gdt() into
      setup_per_cpu_areas().  Note that this change also necessitates
      explicit per_cpu_offset initializations in voyager_smp.c.
      
      With this change, x86_OP_percpu()'s are as efficient on x86_64 as on
      x86_32 and also x86_64 can use assembly PER_CPU macros.

      x86: fold pda into percpu area on SMP · 1a51e3a0
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      [ Based on original patch from Christoph Lameter and Mike Travis. ]
      
      Currently pdas and percpu areas are allocated separately.  %gs points
      to local pda and percpu area can be reached using pda->data_offset.
      This patch folds pda into percpu area.
      
      Due to strange gcc requirement, pda needs to be at the beginning of
      the percpu area so that pda->stack_canary is at %gs:40.  To achieve
      this, a new percpu output section macro - PERCPU_VADDR_PREALLOC() - is
      added and used to reserve pda sized chunk at the start of the percpu
      area.
      
      After this change, for boot cpu, %gs first points to pda in the
      data.init area and later during setup_per_cpu_areas() gets updated to
      point to the actual pda.  This means that setup_per_cpu_areas() need
      to reload %gs for CPU0 while clearing pda area for other cpus as cpu0
      already has modified it when control reaches setup_per_cpu_areas().
      
      This patch also removes now unnecessary get_local_pda() and its call
      sites.
      
      A lot of this patch is taken from Mike Travis' "x86_64: Fold pda into
      per cpu area" patch.

      x86, percpu: silence section mismatch warnings related to EARLY_PER_CPU variables · c6a92a25
      Marcin Slusarz 提交于
      Quoting Mike Travis in "x86: cleanup early per cpu variables/accesses v4"
      (23ca4bba):
      
          The DEFINE macro defines the per_cpu variable as well as the early
          map and pointer.  It also initializes the per_cpu variable and map
          elements to "_initvalue".  The early_* macros provide access to
          the initial map (usually setup during system init) and the early
          pointer.  This pointer is initialized to point to the early map
          but is then NULL'ed when the actual per_cpu areas are setup.  After
          that the per_cpu variable is the correct access to the variable.
      
      As these variables are NULL'ed before __init sections are dropped
      (in setup_per_cpu_maps), they can be safely annotated as __ref.
      
      This change silences following section mismatch warnings:
      
      WARNING: vmlinux.o(.data+0x46c0): Section mismatch in reference from the variable x86_cpu_to_apicid_early_ptr to the variable .init.data:x86_cpu_to_apicid_early_map

      x86: consolidate header guards · 77ef50a5
      Vegard Nossum 提交于
      This patch is the result of an automatic script that consolidates the
      format of all the headers in include/asm-x86/.
      
      The format:
      
      1. No leading underscore. Names with leading underscores are reserved.
      2. Pathname components are separated by two underscores. So we can
         distinguish between mm_types.h and mm/types.h.
      3. Everything except letters and numbers are turned into single
         underscores.

      x86: cleanup early per cpu variables/accesses v4 · 23ca4bba
      Mike Travis 提交于
        * Introduce a new PER_CPU macro called "EARLY_PER_CPU".  This is
          used by some per_cpu variables that are initialized and accessed
          before there are per_cpu areas allocated.
      
          ["Early" in respect to per_cpu variables is "earlier than the per_cpu
          areas have been setup".]
      
          This patchset adds these new macros:
      
      	DEFINE_EARLY_PER_CPU(_type, _name, _initvalue)
      	EXPORT_EARLY_PER_CPU_SYMBOL(_name)
      	DECLARE_EARLY_PER_CPU(_type, _name)
      
      	early_per_cpu_ptr(_name)
      	early_per_cpu_map(_name, _idx)
      	early_per_cpu(_name, _cpu)
      
          The DEFINE macro defines the per_cpu variable as well as the early
          map and pointer.  It also initializes the per_cpu variable and map
          elements to "_initvalue".  The early_* macros provide access to
          the initial map (usually setup during system init) and the early
          pointer.  This pointer is initialized to point to the early map
          but is then NULL'ed when the actual per_cpu areas are setup.  After
          that the per_cpu variable is the correct access to the variable.
      
          The early_per_cpu() macro is not very efficient but does show how to
          access the variable if you have a function that can be called both
          "early" and "late".  It tests the early ptr to be NULL, and if not
          then it's still valid.  Otherwise, the per_cpu variable is used
          instead:
      
      	#define early_per_cpu(_name, _cpu) 			\
      		(early_per_cpu_ptr(_name) ?			\
      			early_per_cpu_ptr(_name)[_cpu] :	\
      			per_cpu(_name, _cpu))
      
          A better method is to actually check the pointer manually.  In the
          case below, numa_set_node can be called both "early" and "late":
      
      	void __cpuinit numa_set_node(int cpu, int node)
      	{
      	    int *cpu_to_node_map = early_per_cpu_ptr(x86_cpu_to_node_map);
      
      	    if (cpu_to_node_map)
      		    cpu_to_node_map[cpu] = node;
      	    else
      		    per_cpu(x86_cpu_to_node_map, cpu) = node;
      	}
      
        * Add a flag "arch_provides_topology_pointers" that indicates pointers
          to topology cpumask_t maps are available.  Otherwise, use the function
          returning the cpumask_t value.  This is useful if cpumask_t set size
          is very large to avoid copying data on to/off of the stack.
      
        * The coverage of CONFIG_DEBUG_PER_CPU_MAPS has been increased while
          the non-debug case has been optimized a bit.
      
        * Remove an unreferenced compiler warning in drivers/base/topology.c
      
        * Clean up #ifdef in setup.c
      
      For inclusion into sched-devel/latest tree.
