      powerpc: Add the ability to save VSX without giving it up · bf6a4d5b
      由 Cyril Bur 提交于 
      This patch adds the ability to be able to save the VSX registers to the
thread struct without giving up (disabling the facility) next time the
process returns to userspace.

This patch builds on a previous optimisation for the FPU and VEC registers
in the thread copy path to avoid a possibly pointless reload of VSX state.

This patch optimises the thread copy path (as a result of a fork() or

      powerpc: Prepare for splitting giveup_{fpu, altivec, vsx} in two · de2a20aa
      由 Cyril Bur 提交于 
      This prepares for the decoupling of saving {fpu,altivec,vsx} registers and
marking {fpu,altivec,vsx} as being unused by a thread.

Currently giveup_{fpu,altivec,vsx}() does both however optimisations to
task switching can be made if these two operations are decoupled.
save_all() will permit the saving of registers to thread structs and leave
threads MSR with bits enabled.

This patch introduces no functional change.

      powerpc: Restore FPU/VEC/VSX if previously used · 70fe3d98
      由 Cyril Bur 提交于 
      Currently the FPU, VEC and VSX facilities are lazily loaded. This is not
a problem unless a process is using these facilities.

Modern versions of GCC are very good at automatically vectorising code,
new and modernised workloads make use of floating point and vector
facilities, even the kernel makes use of vectorised memcpy.

All this combined greatly increases the cost of a syscall since the
kernel uses the facilities sometimes even in syscall fast-path making it
increasingly common for a thread to take an *_unavailable exception soon
after a syscall, not to mention potentially taking all three.

The obvious overcompensation to this problem is to simply always load
all the facilities on every exit to userspace. Loading up all FPU, VEC
and VSX registers every time can be expensive and if a workload does
avoid using them, it should not be forced to incur this penalty.

An 8bit counter is used to detect if the registers have been used in the
past and the registers are always loaded until the value wraps to back
to zero.

Several versions of the assembly in entry_64.S were tested:

  1. Always calling C.
  2. Performing a common case check and then calling C.
  3. A complex check in asm.

After some benchmarking it was determined that avoiding C in the common
case is a performance benefit (option 2). The full check in asm (option
3) greatly complicated that codepath for a negligible performance gain
and the trade-off was deemed not worth it.

      powerpc: Explicitly disable math features when copying thread · d272f667
      由 Cyril Bur 提交于 
      Currently when threads get scheduled off they always giveup the FPU,
Altivec (VMX) and Vector (VSX) units if they were using them. When they are
scheduled back on a fault is then taken to enable each facility and load
registers. As a result explicitly disabling FPU/VMX/VSX has not been
necessary.

Future changes and optimisations remove this mandatory giveup and fault
which could cause calls such as clone() and fork() to copy threads and run
them later with FPU/VMX/VSX enabled but no registers loaded.

This patch starts the process of having MSR_{FP,VEC,VSX} mean that a
threads registers are hot while not having MSR_{FP,VEC,VSX} means that the
registers must be loaded. This allows for a smarter return to userspace.

      selftests/powerpc: Remove -flto from common CFLAGS · a4cf0a2e
      由 Suraj Jitindar Singh 提交于 
      LTO can cause GCC to inline some functions which have attributes set.
The act of inlining the functions can lead to GCC forgetting about the
attributes which leads to incorrect tests.

Notable example being: __attribute__((__target__("no-vsx")))

LTO can also interact strangely with custom assembly functions and cause
tests to intermittently fail.

Both these cases are hard to detect and require manual inspection of
binaries which is unlikely to happen for all tests. Furthermore, LTO
optimisations are not necessary for selftests and correctness is
paramount and as such it is best to disable LTO.

LTO can be enabled on a per test basis.

A pseries_le_defconfig kernel on a POWER8 was used to determine that the
same subset of selftests pass and fail with and without -flto in the
common Makefile.

      selftests/powerpc: Fix out of bounds access in TM signal test · 501e279c

We haven't noticed previously because -flto was hiding it somehow.

The code is confused, PT_MSR isn't a gpr, instead it's in
uc_regs->gregs, so fix it.

      powerpc/mm: Split hash page table sizing heuristic into a helper · 5c3c7ede

      htab_get_table_size() either retrieve the size of the hash page table (HPT)
from the device tree - if the HPT size is determined by firmware - or
uses a heuristic to determine a good size based on RAM size if the kernel
is responsible for allocating the HPT.

To support a PAPR extension allowing resizing of the HPT, we're going to
want the memory size -> HPT size logic elsewhere, so split it out into a
helper function.

      powerpc/mm: Clean up memory hotplug failure paths · 1dace6c6
      由 David Gibson 提交于 
      This makes a number of cleanups to handling of mapping failures during
memory hotplug on Power:

For errors creating the linear mapping for the hot-added region:
  * This is now reported with EFAULT which is more appropriate than the
    previous EINVAL (the failure is unlikely to be related to the
    function's parameters)
  * An error in this path now prints a warning message, rather than just
    silently failing to add the extra memory.
  * Previously a failure here could result in the region being partially
    mapped.  We now clean up any partial mapping before failing.

For errors creating the vmemmap for the hot-added region:
   * This is now reported with EFAULT instead of causing a BUG() - this
     could happen for external reason (e.g. full hash table) so it's better
     to handle this non-fatally
   * An error message is also printed, so the failure won't be silent
   * As above a failure could cause a partially mapped region, we now
     clean this up. [mpe: move htab_remove_mapping() out of #ifdef
     CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG to enable this]

      powerpc/mm: Handle removing maybe-present bolted HPTEs · 27828f98
      由 David Gibson 提交于 
      At the moment the hpte_removebolted callback in ppc_md returns void and
will BUG_ON() if the hpte it's asked to remove doesn't exist in the first
place.  This is awkward for the case of cleaning up a mapping which was
partially made before failing.

So, we add a return value to hpte_removebolted, and have it return ENOENT
in the case that the HPTE to remove didn't exist in the first place.

In the (sole) caller, we propagate errors in hpte_removebolted to its
caller to handle.  However, we handle ENOENT specially, continuing to
complete the unmapping over the specified range before returning the error
to the caller.

This means that htab_remove_mapping() will work sanely on a partially
present mapping, removing any HPTEs which are present, while also returning
ENOENT to its caller in case it's important there.

There are two callers of htab_remove_mapping():
   - In remove_section_mapping() we already WARN_ON() any error return,
     which is reasonable - in this case the mapping should be fully
     present
   - In vmemmap_remove_mapping() we BUG_ON() any error.  We change that to
     just a WARN_ON() in the case of ENOENT, since failing to remove a
     mapping that wasn't there in the first place probably shouldn't be
     fatal.

      powerpc/mm: Clean up error handling for htab_remove_mapping · abd0a0e7
      由 David Gibson 提交于 
      Currently, the only error that htab_remove_mapping() can report is -EINVAL,
if removal of bolted HPTEs isn't implemeted for this platform.  We make
a few clean ups to the handling of this:

 * EINVAL isn't really the right code - there's nothing wrong with the
   function's arguments - use ENODEV instead
 * We were also printing a warning message, but that's a decision better
   left up to the callers, so remove it
 * One caller is vmemmap_remove_mapping(), which will just BUG_ON() on
   error, making the warning message redundant, so no change is needed
   there.
 * The other caller is remove_section_mapping().  This is called in the
   memory hot remove path at a point after vmemmap_remove_mapping() so
   if hpte_removebolted isn't implemented, we'd expect to have already
   BUG()ed anyway.  Put a WARN_ON() here, in lieu of a printk() since this
   really shouldn't be happening.
