      sparc64: Add global register dumping facility. · 93dae5b7
      David S. Miller 提交于
      When a cpu really is stuck in the kernel, it can be often
      impossible to figure out which cpu is stuck where.  The
      worst case is when the stuck cpu has interrupts disabled.
      
      Therefore, implement a global cpu state capture that uses
      SMP message interrupts which are not disabled by the
      normal IRQ enable/disable APIs of the kernel.
      
      As long as we can get a sysrq 'y' to the kernel, we can
      get a dump.  Even if the console interrupt cpu is wedged,
      we can trigger it from userspace using /proc/sysrq-trigger
      
      The output is made compact so that this facility is more
      useful on high cpu count systems, which is where this
      facility will likely find itself the most useful :)

      1) On SMP single stepping has some fundamental issues,
         shared with other sw single-step architectures such
         as mips and arm.
      
      2) On 32-bit sparc we don't support SMP kgdb yet.  That
         requires some reworking of the IPI mechanisms and
         infrastructure on that platform.

      [SPARC64]: Fix new context version SMP handling. · ee29074d
      David S. Miller 提交于
      Don't piggy back the SMP receive signal code to do the
      context version change handling.
      
      Instead allocate another fixed PIL number for this
      asynchronous cross-call.  We can't use smp_call_function()
      because this thing is invoked with interrupts disabled
      and a few spinlocks held.
      
      Also, fix smp_call_function_mask() to count "cpus" correctly.
      There is no guarentee that the local cpu is in the mask
      yet that is exactly what this code was assuming.

      [SPARC64]: Elminate all usage of hard-coded trap globals. · 56fb4df6
      David S. Miller 提交于
      UltraSPARC has special sets of global registers which are switched to
      for certain trap types.  There is one set for MMU related traps, one
      set of Interrupt Vector processing, and another set (called the
      Alternate globals) for all other trap types.
      
      For what seems like forever we've hard coded the values in some of
      these trap registers.  Some examples include:
      
      1) Interrupt Vector global %g6 holds current processors interrupt
         work struct where received interrupts are managed for IRQ handler
         dispatch.
      
      2) MMU global %g7 holds the base of the page tables of the currently
         active address space.
      
      3) Alternate global %g6 held the current_thread_info() value.
      
      Such hardcoding has resulted in some serious issues in many areas.
      There are some code sequences where having another register available
      would help clean up the implementation.  Taking traps such as
      cross-calls from the OBP firmware requires some trick code sequences
      wherein we have to save away and restore all of the special sets of
      global registers when we enter/exit OBP.
      
      We were also using the IMMU TSB register on SMP to hold the per-cpu
      area base address, which doesn't work any longer now that we actually
      use the TSB facility of the cpu.
      
      The implementation is pretty straight forward.  One tricky bit is
      getting the current processor ID as that is different on different cpu
      variants.  We use a stub with a fancy calling convention which we
      patch at boot time.  The calling convention is that the stub is
      branched to and the (PC - 4) to return to is in register %g1.  The cpu
      number is left in %g6.  This stub can be invoked by using the
      __GET_CPUID macro.
      
      We use an array of per-cpu trap state to store the current thread and
      physical address of the current address space's page tables.  The
      TRAP_LOAD_THREAD_REG loads %g6 with the current thread from this
      table, it uses __GET_CPUID and also clobbers %g1.
      
      TRAP_LOAD_IRQ_WORK is used by the interrupt vector processing to load
      the current processor's IRQ software state into %g6.  It also uses
      __GET_CPUID and clobbers %g1.
      
      Finally, TRAP_LOAD_PGD_PHYS loads the physical address base of the
      current address space's page tables into %g7, it clobbers %g1 and uses
      __GET_CPUID.
      
      Many refinements are possible, as well as some tuning, with this stuff
      in place.

      [SPARC64]: Move away from virtual page tables, part 1. · 74bf4312
      David S. Miller 提交于
      We now use the TSB hardware assist features of the UltraSPARC
      MMUs.
      
      SMP is currently knowingly broken, we need to find another place
      to store the per-cpu base pointers.  We hid them away in the TSB
      base register, and that obviously will not work any more :-)
      
      Another known broken case is non-8KB base page size.
      
      Also noticed that flush_tlb_all() is not referenced anywhere, only
      the internal __flush_tlb_all() (local cpu only) is used by the
      sparc64 port, so we can get rid of flush_tlb_all().
      
      The kernel gets it's own 8KB TSB (swapper_tsb) and each address space
      gets it's own private 8K TSB.  Later we can add code to dynamically
      increase the size of per-process TSB as the RSS grows.  An 8KB TSB is
      good enough for up to about a 4MB RSS, after which the TSB starts to
      incur many capacity and conflict misses.
      
      We even accumulate OBP translations into the kernel TSB.
      
      Another area for refinement is large page size support.  We could use
      a secondary address space TSB to handle those.

      [SPARC64]: Fix powering off on SMP. · b4d1b825
      David S. Miller 提交于
      Doing a "SUNW,stop-self" firmware call on the other cpus is not the
      correct thing to do when dropping into the firmware for a halt,
      reboot, or power-off.
      
      For now, just do nothing to quiet the other cpus, as the system should
      be quiescent enough.  Later we may decide to implement smp_send_stop()
      like the other SMP platforms do.

      [SPARC64]: Avoid membar instructions in delay slots. · b445e26c
      David S. Miller 提交于
      In particular, avoid membar instructions in the delay
      slot of a jmpl instruction.
      
      UltraSPARC-I, II, IIi, and IIe have a bug, documented in
      the UltraSPARC-IIi User's Manual, Appendix K, Erratum 51
      
      The long and short of it is that if the IMU unit misses
      on a branch or jmpl, and there is a store buffer synchronizing
      membar in the delay slot, the chip can stop fetching instructions.
      
      If interrupts are enabled or some other trap is enabled, the
      chip will unwedge itself, but performance will suffer.
      
      We already had a workaround for this bug in a few spots, but
      it's better to have the entire tree sanitized for this rule.
