      ARC: lazy dcache flush broke gdb in non-aliasing configs · 7bb66f6e
      由 Vineet Gupta 提交于 
      gdbserver inserting a breakpoint ends up calling copy_user_page() for a
code page. The generic version of which (non-aliasing config) didn't set
the PG_arch_1 bit hence update_mmu_cache() didn't sync dcache/icache for
corresponding dynamic loader code page - causing garbade to be executed.

So now aliasing versions of copy_user_highpage()/clear_page() are made
default. There is no significant overhead since all of special alias
handling code is compiled out for non-aliasing build

      ARC: Use enough bits for determining page's cache color · 006dfb3c
      由 Vineet Gupta 提交于 
      The current code uses 2 bits for determining page's dcache color, thus
sorting pages into 4 bins, whereas the aliasing dcache really has 2 bins
(8k page, 64k dcache - 4 way-set-assoc).
This can cause extraneous flushes - e.g. color 0 and 2.

      ARC: Brown paper bag bug in macro for checking cache color · 3e87974d
      由 Vineet Gupta 提交于 
      The VM_EXEC check in update_mmu_cache() was getting optimized away
because of a stupid error in definition of macro addr_not_cache_congruent()

The intention was to have the equivalent of following:

	if (a || (1 ? b : 0))

but we ended up with following:

	if (a || 1 ? b : 0)

And because precedence of '||' is more that that of '?', gcc was optimizing
away evaluation of <a>

Nasty Repercussions:
1. For non-aliasing configs it would mean some extraneous dcache flushes
   for non-code pages if U/K mappings were not congruent.
2. For aliasing config, some needed dcache flush for code pages might
   be missed if U/K mappings were congruent.

      ARC: copy_(to|from)_user() to honor usermode-access permissions · a950549c

      This manifested as grep failing psuedo-randomly:

-------------->8---------------------

ARC700 MMU provides fully orthogonal permission bits per page:
Ur, Uw, Ux, Kr, Kw, Kx

The user mode page permission templates used to have all Kernel mode
access bits enabled.
This caused a tricky race condition observed with uClibc buffered file
read and UNIX pipes.

1. Read access to an anon mapped page in libc .bss: write-protected
   zero_page mapped: TLB Entry installed with Ur + K[rwx]

2. grep calls libc:getc() -> buffered read layer calls read(2) with the
   internal read buffer in same .bss page.
   The read() call is on STDIN which has been redirected to a pipe.
   read(2) => sys_read() => pipe_read() => copy_to_user()

3. Since page has Kernel-write permission (despite being user-mode
   write-protected), copy_to_user() suceeds w/o taking a MMU TLB-Miss
   Exception (page-fault for ARC). core-MM is unaware that kernel
   erroneously wrote to the reserved read-only zero-page (BUG #1)

4. Control returns to userspace which now does a write to same .bss page
   Since Linux MM is not aware that page has been modified by kernel, it
   simply reassigns a new writable zero-init page to mapping, loosing the
   prior write by kernel - effectively zero'ing out the libc read buffer
   under the hood - hence grep doesn't see right data (BUG #2)

The fix is to make all kernel-mode access permissions mirror the
user-mode ones. Note that the kernel still has full access to pages,
when accessed directly (w/o MMU) - this fix ensures that kernel-mode
access in copy_to_from() path uses the same faulting access model as for
pure user accesses to keep MM fully aware of page state.

The issue is peudo-random because it only shows up if the TLB entry
installed in #1 is present at the time of #3. If it is evicted out, due
to TLB pressure or some-such, then copy_to_user() does take a TLB Miss
Exception, with a routine write-to-anon COW processing installing a
fresh page for kernel writes and also usable as it is in userspace.

Further the issue was dormant for so long as it depends on where the
libc internal read buffer (in .bss) is mapped at runtime.
If it happens to reside in file-backed data mapping of libc (in the
page-aligned slack space trailing the file backed data), loader zero
padding the slack space, does the early cow page replacement, setting
things up at the very beginning itself.

With gcc 4.8 based builds, the libc buffer got pushed out to a real
anon mapping which triggers the issue.

      Flush and INVALIDATE the dcache page.

This helper is only used for writeback of CODE pages to memory. So
there's no value in keeping the dcache lines around. Infact it is risky
as a writeback on natural eviction under pressure can cause un-needed
writeback with weird issues on aliasing dcache configurations.

      ARC: [mm] Lazy D-cache flush (non aliasing VIPT) · eacd0e95
      由 Vineet Gupta 提交于 
      flush_dcache_page( ) is MM hook to ensure that a page has consistent
views between kernel and userspace. Thus it is called when

* kernel writes to a page which at some later point could get mapped to
  userspace (so kernel mapping needs to be flushed-n-inv)
* kernel is about to read from a page with possible userspace mappings
  (so userspace mappings needs to be made coherent with kernel ones)

However for Non aliasing VIPT dcache, any userspace mapping will always
be congruent to kernel mapping. Thus d-cache need need not be flushed at
all (or delayed indefinitely).

The only reason it does need to be flushed is when mapping code pages.
Since icache doesn't snoop dcache, those dirty dcache lines need to be
written back to memory and icache line invalidated so that icache lines
fetch will get the right data.

Decent gains on LMBench fork/exec/sh and File I/O micro-benchmarks.

      ARC: [mm] optimise icache flush for kernel mappings · 7586bf72
      由 Vineet Gupta 提交于 
      This change continues the theme from prev commit - this time icache
handling for kernel's own code modification (vmalloc: loadable modules,
breakpoints for kprobes/kgdb...)

flush_icache_range() calls the CDU icache helper with vaddr to enable
exact line invalidate.

For a true kernel-virtual mapping, the vaddr is actually virtual hence
valid as index into cache. For kprobes breakpoint however, the vaddr arg
is actually paddr - since that's how normal kernel is mapped in ARC
memory map.  This implies that CDU will use the same addr for
indexing as for tag match - which is fine since kernel code would only
have that "implicit" mapping and none other.

This should speed up module loading significantly - specially on default
ARC700 icache configurations (32k) which alias.

      ARC: [mm] optimise icache flush for user mappings · 24603fdd
      由 Vineet Gupta 提交于 
      ARC icache doesn't snoop dcache thus executable pages need to be made
coherent before mapping into userspace in flush_icache_page().

However ARC700 CDU (hardware cache flush module) requires both vaddr
(index in cache) as well as paddr (tag match) to correctly identify a
line in the VIPT cache. A typical ARC700 SoC has aliasing icache, thus
the paddr only based flush_icache_page() API couldn't be implemented
efficiently. It had to loop thru all possible alias indexes and perform
the invalidate operation (ofcourse the cache op would only succeed at
the index(es) where tag matches - typically only 1, but the cost of
visiting all the cache-bins needs to paid nevertheless).

Turns out however that the vaddr (along with paddr) is available in
update_mmu_cache() hence better suits ARC icache flush semantics.
With both vaddr+paddr, exactly one flush operation per line is done.

      ARC: [mm] optimize needless full mm TLB flush on munmap · 8d56bec2
      由 Vineet Gupta 提交于 
      munmap ends up calling tlb_flush() which for ARC was flushing the entire
TLB unconditionally (by moving the MMU to a new ASID)

do_munmap
  unmap_region
    unmap_vmas
      unmap_single_vma
         unmap_page_range
            tlb_start_vma
            zap_pud_range
            tlb_end_vma()
  tlb_finish_mmu
    tlb_flush()  ---> unconditional flush_tlb_mm()

So even a single page munmap, a frequent operation when uClibc dynamic
linker (ldso) is loading the dependent shared libraries, would move the
the ASID multiple times - needlessly invalidating the pre-faulted TLB
entries (and increasing the rate of ASID wraparound + full TLB flush).

This is now optimised to only be called if tlb->full_mm (which means
for exit/execve) cases only. And for those cases, flush_tlb_mm() is
already optimised to be a no-op for mm->mm_users == 0.

So essentially there are no mmore full mm flushes - except for fork which
anyhow needs it for properly COW'ing parent address space.

munmap now needs to do TLB range flush, which is implemented with
tlb_end_vma()

Results
-------
1. ASID now consistenly moves by 4 during a simple ls (as opposed to 5 or
   7 before).

2. LMBench microbenchmark also shows improvements
