For better explanation, I break down the page fault handling into steps: 1) There is a page fault caused by DMA operation initiated by SPU and DMA is suspended. 2) The interrupt handler 'spu_irq_class_1()/__spu_trap_data_map()' is called and it just wakes up the sleeping spe-manager thread. 3) by PPE scheduler, the corresponding bottom half, spu_irq_class_1_bottom() is called in process context and DMA is restarted. There can be a quite large time gap between 2) and 3) and I found the following problem: Between 2) and 3) If the context becomes unbound, 3) is not executed because when the spe-manager thread is awaken, the context is already saved. (This situation can happen, for example, when a high priority spe thread newly started in that time gap) But the actual problem is that the corresponding SPU context does not work even if it is bound again to a SPU. Besides I can see the following warning in mambo simulator when the context becomes unbound(in save_mfc_cmd()), i.e. when unbind() is called for the context after step 2) before 3) : 'WARNING: 61392752237: SPE2: MFC_CMD_QUEUE channel count of 15 is inconsistent with number of available DMA queue entries of 16' After I go through available documents, I found that the problem is because the suspended DMA is not restarted when it is bound again.

In the context save/restore code, the SPU MFC command queue purge code has a bug: static inline void wait_purge_complete(struct spu_state *csa, struct spu *spu) { struct spu_priv2 __iomem *priv2 = spu->priv2; /* Save, Step 28: * Poll MFC_CNTL[Ps] until value '11' is * read * (purge complete). */ POLL_WHILE_FALSE(in_be64(&priv2->mfc_control_RW) & MFC_CNTL_PURGE_DMA_COMPLETE); } This will exit as soon as _one_ of the 2 bits that compose MFC_CNTL_PURGE_DMA_COMPLETE is set, and one of them happens to be "purge in progress"... which means that we'll happily continue restoring the MFC while it's being purged at the same time.

To support muti-platform binaries the spu hypervisor accessor routines must have runtime binding. I removed the existing statically linked routines in spu.h and spu_priv1_mmio.c and created new accessor routines in spu_priv1.h that operate indirectly through an ops struct spu_priv1_ops. spu_priv1_mmio.c contains the instance of the accessor routines for running on raw hardware.

The save/restore sequence for SPE contexts currently attempts to save and restore the channel count for SPE channel 1 (the SPU_WriteEventMask channel. But the CBE architecture (section 9.11.2) clearly states that this channel does not have an associated count. Hardware simply ignores the attempt to write this count, but the simulator generates a warning message. WARNING: 279721590: SPE7: Attempt to write channel count for CH 1 with no associated count is ignored.

We found that when the 'decrementer' is saved, the PPE saves the current time 'csa->suspend_time'. When restoring the 'decrementer', (Step 34) decrementer seems to be adjusted with the number of cycles th= at a spu thread has not been running. In that code it is missing a substract ('-') because 'delta_time' is assigned a not substracted(see bellow).

This patch adds a new file called 'mfc' to each spufs directory. The file accepts DMA commands that are a subset of what would be legal DMA commands for problem state register access. Upon reading the file, a bitmask is returned with the completed tag groups set. The file is meant to be used from an abstraction in libspe that is added by a different patch. From the kernel perspective, this means a process can now offload a memory copy from or into an SPE local store without having to run code on the SPE itself. The transfer will only be performed while the SPE is owned by one thread that is waiting in the spu_run system call and the data will be transferred into that thread's address space, independent of which thread started the transfer.

In a hypervisor based setup, direct access to the first priviledged register space can typically not be allowed to the kernel and has to be implemented through hypervisor calls. As suggested by Masato Noguchi, let's abstract the register access trough a number of function calls. Since there is currently no public specification of actual hypervisor calls to implement this, I only provide a place that makes it easier to hook into.

Handling mailbox interrupts was broken in multiple respects, the combination of which was hiding the bugs most of the time. - The ibox interrupt mask was open initially even though there are no waiters on a newly created SPU. - Acknowledging the mailbox interrupt did not work because it is level triggered and the mailbox data is never retrieved from inside the interrupt handler. - The interrupt handler delivered interrupts with a disabled mask if another interrupt is triggered for the same class but a different mask. - The poll function did not enable the interrupt if it had not been enabled, so we might run into the poll timeout if none of the other bugs saved us and no signal was delivered. We probably still have a similar problem with blocking read/write on mailbox files, but that will result in extra wakeup in the worst case, not in incorrect behaviour.

This adds a scheduler for SPUs to make it possible to use more logical SPUs than physical ones are present in the system. Currently, there is no support for preempting a running SPU thread, they have to leave the SPU by either triggering an event on the SPU that causes it to return to the owning thread or by sending a signal to it. This patch also adds operations that enable accessing an SPU in either runnable or saved state. We use an RW semaphore to protect the state of the SPU from changing underneath us, while we are holding it readable. In order to change the state, it is acquired writeable and a context save or restore is executed before downgrading the semaphore to read-only.

Add some infrastructure for saving and restoring the context of an SPE. This patch creates a new structure that can hold the whole state of a physical SPE in memory. It also contains code that avoids races during the context switch and the binary code that is loaded to the SPU in order to access its registers. The actual PPE- and SPE-side context switch code are two separate patches. Signed-off-by: NArnd Bergmann <arndb@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: NPaul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
