      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: add Tilera's <arch/sim.h> header as an open-source header · bf65e440
      Chris Metcalf 提交于
      This change adds one of the Tilera standard <arch> headers to the set
      of headers shipped with Linux.  The <arch/sim.h> header provides
      methods for programmatically interacting with the Tilera simulator.
      
      The current <arch/sim.h> provides inline assembly for the _sim_syscall
      function, so the declaration and definition previously provided
      manually in Linux are no longer needed.  We now use the standard
      sim_validate_lines_evicted() method from <arch/sim.h> rather than
      rolling our own direct call to sim_syscall().

      arch/tile: Various cleanups. · c745a8a1
      Chris Metcalf 提交于
      This change rolls up random cleanups not representing any actual bugs.
      
      - Remove a stale CONFIG_ value from the default tile_defconfig
      - Remove unused tns_atomic_xxx() family of methods from <asm/atomic.h>
      - Optimize get_order() using Tile's "clz" instruction
      - Fix a bad hypervisor upcall name (not currently used in Linux anyway)
      - Use __copy_in_user_inatomic() name for consistency, and export it
      - Export some additional hypervisor driver I/O upcalls and some homecache calls
      - Remove the obfuscating MEMCPY_TEST_WH64 support code
      - Other stray comment cleanups, #if 0 removal, etc.

      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.
