      [POWERPC] Fix CONFIG_SMP=n build error on ppc64 · 9bafbb0c
      Olof Johansson 提交于
      The patch "KVM: fix !SMP build error" change the way smp_call_function()
      actually uses the passed in function names on non-SMP builds.  So
      previously it was never caught that the function passed in was never
      actually defined.
      
      This causes a build error on ppc64_defconfig + CONFIG_SMP=n:
      
      arch/powerpc/mm/tlb_64.c: In function 'pgtable_free_now':
      arch/powerpc/mm/tlb_64.c:71: error: 'pte_free_smp_sync' undeclared (first use in this function)
      arch/powerpc/mm/tlb_64.c:71: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
      arch/powerpc/mm/tlb_64.c:71: error: for each function it appears in.)
      
      So we need to define it even if CONFIG_SMP is off. Either that or ifdef
      out the smp_call_function() call, but that's ugly.

      [POWERPC] Avoid unpaired stwcx. on some processors · b64f87c1
      Becky Bruce 提交于
      The context switch code in the kernel issues a dummy stwcx. to clear the
      reservation, as recommended by the architecture.  However, some processors
      can have issues if this stwcx to address A occurs while the reservation
      is already held to a different address B.  To avoid this problem, the dummy
      stwcx. needs to be paired with a dummy lwarx to the same address.
      
      This adds the dummy lwarx, and creates a cpu feature bit to indicate
      which cpus are affected.  Tested on mpc8641_hpcn_defconfig in
      arch/powerpc; build tested in arch/ppc.

      sched: restore deterministic CPU accounting on powerpc · fa13a5a1
      Paul Mackerras 提交于
      Since powerpc started using CONFIG_GENERIC_CLOCKEVENTS, the
      deterministic CPU accounting (CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING) has been
      broken on powerpc, because we end up counting user time twice: once in
      timer_interrupt() and once in update_process_times().
      
      This fixes the problem by pulling the code in update_process_times
      that updates utime and stime into a separate function called
      account_process_tick.  If CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING is not defined,
      there is a version of account_process_tick in kernel/timer.c that
      simply accounts a whole tick to either utime or stime as before.  If
      CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING is defined, then arch code gets to
      implement account_process_tick.
      
      This also lets us simplify the s390 code a bit; it means that the s390
      timer interrupt can now call update_process_times even when
      CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING is turned on, and can just implement a
      suitable account_process_tick().
      
      account_process_tick() now takes the task_struct * as an argument.
      Tested both with and without CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING.

      [POWERPC] powerpc: Fix demotion of segments to 4K pages · f6ab0b92
      Benjamin Herrenschmidt 提交于
      When demoting a process to use 4K HW pages (instead of 64K), which
      happens under various circumstances such as doing cache inhibited
      mappings on machines that do not support 64K CI pages, the assembly
      hash code calls back into the C function flush_hash_page().  This
      function prototype was recently changed to accomodate for 1T segments
      but the assembly call site was not updated, causing applications that
      do demotion to hang.  In addition, when updating the per-CPU PACA for
      the new sizes, we didn't properly update the slice "map", thus causing
      the SLB miss code to re-insert segments for the wrong size.
      
      This fixes both and adds a warning comment next to the C
      implementation to try to avoid problems next time someone changes it.
