      tilegx pci: support I/O to arbitrarily-cached pages · bbaa22c3
      Chris Metcalf 提交于
      The tilegx PCI root complex support (currently only in linux-next)
      is limited to pages that are homed on cached in the default manner,
      i.e. "hash-for-home".  This change supports delivery of I/O data to
      pages that are cached in other ways (locally on a particular core,
      uncached, user-managed incoherent, etc.).
      
      A large part of the change is supporting flushing pages from cache
      on particular homes so that we can transition the data that we are
      delivering to or from the device appropriately.  The new homecache_finv*
      routines handle this.
      
      Some changes to page_table_range_init() were also required to make
      the fixmap code work correctly on tilegx; it hadn't been used there
      before.
      
      We also remove some stub mark_caches_evicted_*() routines that
      were just no-ops anyway.

      arch/tile: support multiple huge page sizes dynamically · 621b1955
      Chris Metcalf 提交于
      This change adds support for a new "super" bit in the PTE, using the new
      arch_make_huge_pte() method.  The Tilera hypervisor sees the bit set at a
      given level of the page table and gangs together 4, 16, or 64 consecutive
      pages from that level of the hierarchy to create a larger TLB entry.
      
      One extra "super" page size can be specified at each of the three levels
      of the page table hierarchy on tilegx, using the "hugepagesz" argument
      on the boot command line.  A new hypervisor API is added to allow Linux
      to tell the hypervisor how many PTEs to gang together at each level of
      the page table.
      
      To allow pre-allocating huge pages larger than the buddy allocator can
      handle, this change modifies the Tilera bootmem support to put all of
      memory on tilegx platforms into bootmem.
      
      As part of this change I eliminate the vestigial CONFIG_HIGHPTE support,
      which never worked anyway, and eliminate the hv_page_size() API in favor
      of the standard vma_kernel_pagesize() API.

      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: use interrupt critical sections less · 51007004
      Chris Metcalf 提交于
      In general we want to avoid ever touching memory while within an
      interrupt critical section, since the page fault path goes through
      a different path from the hypervisor when in an interrupt critical
      section, and we carefully decided with tilegx that we didn't need
      to support this path in the kernel.  (On tilepro we did implement
      that path as part of supporting atomic instructions in software.)
      
      In practice we always need to touch the kernel stack, since that's
      where we store the interrupt state before releasing the critical
      section, but this change cleans up a few things.  The IRQ_ENABLE
      macro is split up so that when we want to enable interrupts in a
      deferred way (e.g. for cpu_idle or for interrupt return) we can
      read the per-cpu enable mask before entering the critical section.
      The cache-migration code is changed to use interrupt masking instead
      of interrupt critical sections.  And, the interrupt-entry code is
      changed so that we defer loading "tp" from per-cpu data until after
      we have released the interrupt critical section.

      coredump: remove VM_ALWAYSDUMP flag · 909af768
      Jason Baron 提交于
      The motivation for this patchset was that I was looking at a way for a
      qemu-kvm process, to exclude the guest memory from its core dump, which
      can be quite large.  There are already a number of filter flags in
      /proc/<pid>/coredump_filter, however, these allow one to specify 'types'
      of kernel memory, not specific address ranges (which is needed in this
      case).
      
      Since there are no more vma flags available, the first patch eliminates
      the need for the 'VM_ALWAYSDUMP' flag.  The flag is used internally by
      the kernel to mark vdso and vsyscall pages.  However, it is simple
      enough to check if a vma covers a vdso or vsyscall page without the need
      for this flag.
      
      The second patch then replaces the 'VM_ALWAYSDUMP' flag with a new
      'VM_NODUMP' flag, which can be set by userspace using new madvise flags:
      'MADV_DONTDUMP', and unset via 'MADV_DODUMP'.  The core dump filters
      continue to work the same as before unless 'MADV_DONTDUMP' is set on the
      region.
      
      The qemu code which implements this features is at:
      
        http://people.redhat.com/~jbaron/qemu-dump/qemu-dump.patch
      
      In my testing the qemu core dump shrunk from 383MB -> 13MB with this
      patch.
      
      I also believe that the 'MADV_DONTDUMP' flag might be useful for
      security sensitive apps, which might want to select which areas are
      dumped.
      
      This patch:
      
      The VM_ALWAYSDUMP flag is currently used by the coredump code to
      indicate that a vma is part of a vsyscall or vdso section.  However, we
      can determine if a vma is in one these sections by checking it against
      the gate_vma and checking for a non-NULL return value from
      arch_vma_name().  Thus, freeing a valuable vma bit.

      arch/tile: support signal "exception-trace" hook · 571d76ac
      Chris Metcalf 提交于
      This change adds support for /proc/sys/debug/exception-trace to tile.
      Like x86 and sparc, by default it is set to "1", generating a one-line
      printk whenever a user process crashes.  By setting it to "2", we get
      a much more complete userspace diagnostic at crash time, including
      a user-space backtrace, register dump, and memory dump around the
      address of the crash.
      
      Some vestiges of the Tilera-internal version of this support are
      removed with this patch (the show_crashinfo variable and the
      arch_coredump_signal function).  We retain a "crashinfo" boot parameter
      which allows you to set the boot-time value of exception-trace.

      arch/tile: finish enabling support for TILE-Gx 64-bit chip · 18aecc2b
      Chris Metcalf 提交于
      This support was partially present in the existing code (look for
      "__tilegx__" ifdefs) but with this change you can build a working
      kernel using the TILE-Gx toolchain and ARCH=tilegx.
      
      Most of these files are new, generally adding a foo_64.c file
      where previously there was just a foo_32.c file.
      
      The ARCH=tilegx directive redirects to arch/tile, not arch/tilegx,
      using the existing SRCARCH mechanism in the top-level Makefile.
      
      Changes to existing files:
      
      - <asm/bitops.h> and <asm/bitops_32.h> changed to factor the
        include of <asm-generic/bitops/non-atomic.h> in the common header.
      
      - <asm/compat.h> and arch/tile/kernel/compat.c changed to remove
        the "const" markers I had put on compat_sys_execve() when trying
        to match some recent similar changes to the non-compat execve.
        It turns out the compat version wasn't "upgraded" to use const.
      
      - <asm/opcode-tile_64.h> and <asm/opcode_constants_64.h> were
        previously included accidentally, with the 32-bit contents.  Now
        they have the proper 64-bit contents.
      
      Finally, I had to hack the existing hacky drivers/input/input-compat.h
      to add yet another "#ifdef" for INPUT_COMPAT_TEST (same as x86_64).

      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.
