      drivers/net/tile/: on-chip network drivers for the tile architecture · e5a06939
      Chris Metcalf 提交于
      This change adds the first network driver for the tile architecture,
      supporting the on-chip XGBE and GBE shims.
      
      The infrastructure is present for the TILE-Gx networking drivers (another
      three source files in the new directory) but for now the the actual
      tilegx sources are waiting on releasing hardware to initial customers.
      
      Note that arch/tile/include/hv/* are "upstream" headers from the
      Tilera hypervisor and will probably benefit less from LKML review.

      arch/tile: catch up on various minor cleanups. · ef06f55a
      Chris Metcalf 提交于
      None of these changes fix any actual bugs, but are just various cleanups
      that fell out along the way.  In particular, some unused #defines and
      includes are removed, PREFETCH_STRIDE is added (the default is right for
      our shipping chips, but wrong for our next generation), our tile-specific
      prefetching code is removed so the (identical) generic prefetching code
      can be used instead, a comment is fixed to be proper GPL and not just a
      "paste GPL here" token, a "//" comment is converted to "/* */", etc.

      arch/tile: Add driver to enable access to the user dynamic network. · 9f9c0382
      Chris Metcalf 提交于
      This network (the "UDN") connects all the cpus on the chip in a
      wormhole-routed dynamic network.  Subrectangles of the chip can
      be allocated by a "create" ioctl on /dev/hardwall, and then to access the
      UDN in that rectangle, tasks must perform an "activate" ioctl on that
      same file object after affinitizing themselves to a single cpu in
      the region.  Sending a wormhole-routed message that tries to leave
      that subrectangle causes all activated tasks to receive a SIGILL
      (just as they would if they tried to access the UDN without first
      activating themselves to a hardwall rectangle).
      
      The original submission of this code to LKML had the driver
      instantiated under /proc/tile/hardwall.  Now we just use a character
      device for this, conventionally /dev/hardwall.  Some futures planning
      for the TILE-Gx chip suggests that we may want to have other types of
      devices that share the general model of "bind a task to a cpu, then
      'activate' a file descriptor on a pseudo-device that gives access to
      some hardware resource".  As such, we are using a device rather
      than, for example, a syscall, to set up and activate this code.
      
      As part of this change, the compat_ptr() declaration was fixed and used
      to pass the compat_ioctl argument to the normal ioctl.  So far we limit
      compat code to 2GB, so the difference between zero-extend and sign-extend
      (the latter being correct, eventually) had been overlooked.
