A 'select EXPORT_UASM' in Kconfig will cause the uasm to be exported for use in modules. When it is exported, all the uasm data and code cease to be __init and __initdata. Also daddiu_bug cannot be __cpuinitdata if uasm is exported. The cleanest thing is to just make it normal data.

As documented in the Loongson 2F User Manual [2, 3], the old Loongson2F series (2F01 / 2F02) have the NOP & JUMP issues which requires workarounds in the kernel and binutils. This issue has been rectified in Loongson 2F series 2F03 so no workarounds needed. Now that the workarounds [1] adding the the -mfix-loongson2f-nop and -mfix-loongson2f-jump options have been comitted to the binutils the CVS repository), we can add the workarounds in the kernel. The workarounds have no significant side effect on the system but may decrease performance so we control them through a a new CPU_LOONGSON2F_WORKAROUNDS config option allowing the users to only enable it as necessary.

In order to achieve correct synchronization semantics, the Octeon port had defined CONFIG_WEAK_REORDERING_BEYOND_LLSC. This resulted in code that looks like: sync ll ... . . . sc ... . . sync The second SYNC was redundant, but harmless. Octeon has a SYNCW instruction that acts as a write-memory-barrier (due to an erratum in some parts two SYNCW are used). It is much faster than SYNC because it imposes ordering on the writes, but doesn't otherwise stall the execution pipeline. On Octeon, SYNC stalls execution until all preceeding writes are committed to the coherent memory system. Using: syncw;syncw ll . . . sc . . Has identical semantics to the first sequence, but is much faster. The SYNCW orders the writes, and the SC will not complete successfully until the write is committed to the coherent memory system. So at the end all preceeding writes have been committed. Since Octeon does not do speculative reads, this functions as a full barrier. The patch removes CONFIG_WEAK_REORDERING_BEYOND_LLSC, and substitutes SYNCW for SYNC in write-memory-barriers.

There's no reason for MIPS to select EMBEDDED. In fact, EMBEDDED makes MIPS more awkward to deal with because it makes it different to the majority of architectures for no good reason. [Ralf: Historically disabling EMBEDDED had hid essential options for many MIPS platforms such as serial console and forced crap like VGA support or power managment enabled for platforms where those don't make any sense. The name of the option is also _very_ missleading so many users don't select it even where is was required for a functioning kernel.] Signed-off-by: NMartin Michlmayr <tbm@cyrius.com> Cc: linux-mips@linux-mips.org Patchwork: http://patchwork.linux-mips.org/patch/663/Signed-off-by: NRalf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org>

The implementation of function graph tracer for MIPS is a little different from X86. in MIPS, gcc(with -pg) only transfer the caller's return address(at) and the _mcount's return address(ra) to us. For the kernel part without -mlong-calls: move at, ra jal _mcount For the module part with -mlong-calls: lui v1, hi16bit_of_mcount addiu v1, v1, low16bit_of_mcount move at, ra jal _mcount Without -mlong-calls, if the function is a leaf, it will not save the return address(ra): ffffffff80101298 <au1k_wait>: ffffffff80101298: 67bdfff0 daddiu sp,sp,-16 ffffffff8010129c: ffbe0008 sd s8,8(sp) ffffffff801012a0: 03a0f02d move s8,sp ffffffff801012a4: 03e0082d move at,ra ffffffff801012a8: 0c042930 jal ffffffff8010a4c0 <_mcount> ffffffff801012ac: 00020021 nop so, we can hijack it directly in _mcount, but if the function is non-leaf, the return address is saved in the stack. ffffffff80133030 <copy_process>: ffffffff80133030: 67bdff50 daddiu sp,sp,-176 ffffffff80133034: ffbe00a0 sd s8,160(sp) ffffffff80133038: 03a0f02d move s8,sp ffffffff8013303c: ffbf00a8 sd ra,168(sp) ffffffff80133040: ffb70098 sd s7,152(sp) ffffffff80133044: ffb60090 sd s6,144(sp) ffffffff80133048: ffb50088 sd s5,136(sp) ffffffff8013304c: ffb40080 sd s4,128(sp) ffffffff80133050: ffb30078 sd s3,120(sp) ffffffff80133054: ffb20070 sd s2,112(sp) ffffffff80133058: ffb10068 sd s1,104(sp) ffffffff8013305c: ffb00060 sd s0,96(sp) ffffffff80133060: 03e0082d move at,ra ffffffff80133064: 0c042930 jal ffffffff8010a4c0 <_mcount> ffffffff80133068: 00020021 nop but we can not get the exact stack address(which saved ra) directly in _mcount, we need to search the content of at register in the stack space or search the "s{d,w} ra, offset(sp)" instruction in the text. 'Cause we can not prove there is only a match in the stack space, so, we search the text instead. as we can see, if the first instruction above "move at, ra" is not a store instruction, there should be a leaf function, so we hijack the at register directly via putting &return_to_handler into it, otherwise, we search the "s{d,w} ra, offset(sp)" instruction to get the stack offset, and then the stack address. we use the above copy_process() as an example, we at last find "ffbf00a8", 0xa8 is the stack offset, we plus it with s8(fp), that is the stack address, we hijack the content via writing the &return_to_handler in. If with -mlong-calls, since there are two more instructions above "move at, ra", so, we can move the pointer to the position above "lui v1, hi16bit_of_mcount".

With dynamic function tracer, by default, _mcount is defined as an "empty" function, it returns directly without any more action . When enabling it in user-space, it will jump to a real tracing function(ftrace_caller), and do the real job for us. Differ from the static function tracer, dynamic function tracer provides two functions ftrace_make_call()/ftrace_make_nop() to enable/disable the tracing of some indicated kernel functions(set_ftrace_filter). In the -v4 version, the implementation of this support is basically the same as X86 version does: _mcount is implemented as an empty function and ftrace_caller is implemented as a real tracing function respectively. But in this version, to support module tracing with the help of -mlong-calls in arch/mips/Makefile: MODFLAGS += -mlong-calls. The stuff becomes a little more complex. We need to cope with two different type of calling to _mcount. For the kernel part, the calling to _mcount(result of "objdump -hdr vmlinux"). is like this: 108: 03e0082d move at,ra 10c: 0c000000 jal 0 <fpcsr_pending> 10c: R_MIPS_26 _mcount 10c: R_MIPS_NONE *ABS* 10c: R_MIPS_NONE *ABS* 110: 00020021 nop For the module with -mlong-calls, it looks like this: c: 3c030000 lui v1,0x0 c: R_MIPS_HI16 _mcount c: R_MIPS_NONE *ABS* c: R_MIPS_NONE *ABS* 10: 64630000 daddiu v1,v1,0 10: R_MIPS_LO16 _mcount 10: R_MIPS_NONE *ABS* 10: R_MIPS_NONE *ABS* 14: 03e0082d move at,ra 18: 0060f809 jalr v1 In the kernel version, there is only one "_mcount" string for every kernel function, so, we just need to match this one in mcount_regex of scripts/recordmcount.pl, but in the module version, we need to choose one of the two to match. Herein, I choose the first one with "R_MIPS_HI16 _mcount". and In the kernel verion, without module tracing support, we just need to replace "jal _mcount" by "jal ftrace_caller" to do real tracing, and filter the tracing of some kernel functions via replacing it by a nop instruction. but as we have described before, the instruction "jal ftrace_caller" only left 32bit length for the address of ftrace_caller, it will fail when calling from the module space. so, herein, we must replace something else. the basic idea is loading the address of ftrace_caller to v1 via changing these two instructions: lui v1,0x0 addiu v1,v1,0 If we want to enable the tracing, we need to replace the above instructions to: lui v1, HI_16BIT_ftrace_caller addiu v1, v1, LOW_16BIT_ftrace_caller If we want to stop the tracing of the indicated kernel functions, we just need to replace the "jalr v1" to a nop instruction. but we need to replace two instructions and encode the above two instructions oursevles. Is there a simpler solution? Yes! Here it is, in this version, we put _mcount and ftrace_caller together, which means the address of _mcount and ftrace_caller is the same: _mcount: ftrace_caller: j ftrace_stub nop ...(do real tracing here)... ftrace_stub: jr ra move ra, at By default, the kernel functions call _mcount, and then jump to ftrace_stub and return. and when we want to do real tracing, we just need to remove that "j ftrace_stub", and it will run through the two "nop" instructions and then do the real tracing job. what about filtering job? we just need to do this: lui v1, hi_16bit_of_mcount <--> b 1f (0x10000004) addiu v1, v1, low_16bit_of_mcount move at, ra jalr v1 nop 1f: (rec->ip + 12) In linux-mips64, there will be some local symbols, whose name are prefixed by $L, which need to be filtered. thanks goes to Steven for writing the mips64-specific function_regex. In a conclusion, with RISC, things becomes easier with such a "stupid" trick, RISC is something like K.I.S.S, and also, there are lots of "simple" tricks in the whole ftrace support, thanks goes to Steven and the other folks for providing such a wonderful tracing framework!

If -pg of gcc is enabled with CONFIG_FUNCTION_TRACER=y. a calling to _mcount will be inserted into each kernel function. so, there is a possibility to trace the kernel functions in _mcount. This patch add the MIPS specific _mcount support for static function tracing. by default, ftrace_trace_function is initialized as ftrace_stub(an empty function), so, the default _mcount will introduce very little overhead. after enabling ftrace in user-space, it will jump to a real tracing function and do static function tracing for us. and -ffunction-sections is incompatible with -pg, so, disable it when ftracer is enabled.

Loongson 2F has built-in DDR2 and PCI-X controller. The PCI-X controller has a programming interface similiar to the the FPGA northbridge used on Loongson 2E. The main differences between Loongson 2E and Loongson 2F include: 1. Loongson 2F has an extra address window configuration module, which is used to map CPU address space to DDR or PCI address space, or map the PCI-DMA address space to DDR or LIO address space. 2. Loongson 2F supports 8 levels of software configurable CPu frequency which can be configured in the LOONGSON_CHIPCFG0 register. The coming cpufreq and standby support are based on this feature. Loongson.h abstracts the modules and corresponding methods are abstracted. Add other Loongson-2F-specific source code including gcc 4.4 support, PCI memory space, PCI IO space, DMA address.

By doing this we save a memory load and associated potential cache miss in the TLB exception handlers.

With flatmem hibernation for Loongson will fail, and there are also some other problems such as broken files when using NFS or CIFS / Samba. The config help of sparsemem says: "This option provides some potential performance benefits, along with decreased code complexity." So to avoid the potential problems of FLATMEM, we disable FLATMEM directly and use SPARSEMEM instead.

Currently, with PAGE_SIZE_4KB, the kernel for loongson will hang on: Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init! The possible reason is the cache aliases problem: Loongson 2F has 64kb, 4 way L1 Cache, the way size is 16kb, which is bigger then 4kb. so, If using 4kb page size, there is cache aliases problem. To avoid this kind of problem, extra cache flushing. The 2nd possible solution is 16kb page size which avoids cache aliases without the need for extra cache flushes. So we disable 4kB pages until the aliasing issue is solved.

Some Debian users have reported that the kernel hangs early during boot on some IP22 systems. Thomas Bogendoerfer found that this is due to a "bad interaction between CONFIG_EARLY_PRINTK and overwritten prom memory during early boot". Since there's no fix yet, disable CONFIG_EARLY_PRINTK for now.

The ohci-sm501 driver requires dma_declare_coherent_memory(). It is used by the driver's local memory allocation with dma_alloc_coherent(). Tested on TANBAC TB0287(VR4131 + SM501). [Ralf: Fixed reject in dma-default.c and removed the entire #if 0'ed block in dma-mapping.h instead of just the #if 0.] Signed-off-by: NYoichi Yuasa <yoichi_yuasa@tripeaks.co.jp> Signed-off-by: NRalf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org>

CONFIG_CPU_HAS_LLSC duplicated the function of cpu_has_llsc for no good reason and and the results if the one was enabled and the other disabled was very unobvious. Remove it now that there are no more remaining users. Signed-off-by: NRalf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org>

Because only gcc >=4.4 have loongson-specific support, we need to choose the suitable -march argument for gcc <= 4.3 and gcc >= 4.4, and here, we use -march=loongson2e for loongson2e. Thanks goes to Arnaud Patard <apatard@mandriva.com> for suggestion of using cc-options(Documentation/kbuild/makefiles.txt). and thanks Zhang Le for introducing the new CPU_LOONGSON2E kernel option. NOTE: -mtune option is not need if -march and -mtune use the same value.

To share common loongson source code between all of the loongson-based machines. there is a need to split it out of the fuloong-2e/ directory. at the same time, other according tuning is needed. the machine-specific parts are defined as macros in relative header file, pci.h, mem.h, machine.h.
