      ARC: Remove explicit passing around of ECR · 38a9ff6d
      由 Vineet Gupta 提交于 
      With ECR now part of pt_regs

* No need to propagate from lowest asm handlers as arg
* No need to save it in tsk->thread.cause_code
* Avoid bit chopping to access the bit-fields

More code consolidation, cleanup

      ARC: pt_regs update #5: Use real ECR for pt_regs->event vs. synth values · 502a0c77
      由 Vineet Gupta 提交于 
      pt_regs->event was set with artificial values to identify the low level
system event (syscall trap / breakpoint trap / exceptions / interrupts)

With r8 saving out of the way, the full word can be used to save real
ECR (Exception Cause Register) which helps idenify the event naturally,
including additional info such as cause code, param.
Only for Interrupts, where ECR is not applicable, do we resort to
synthetic non ECR values.

SAVE_ALL_TRAP/EXCEPTIONS can now be merged as they both use ECR with
different runtime values.

The ptrace helpers now use the sub-fields of ECR to distinguish the
events (e.g. vector 0x25 is trap, param 0 is syscall...)

The following benefits will follow:

(1) This centralizes the location of where ECR is saved and will allow
    the cleanup of task->thread.cause_code ECR placeholder which is set
    in non-uniform way. Then ARC VM code can safely rely on it being
    there for purpose of finer grained VM_EXEC dcache flush (based on
    exec fault: I-TLB Miss)

(2) Further, ECR being passed around from low level handlers as arg can
    be eliminated as it is part of standard reg-file in pt_regs

      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.

      ARC: [mm] Prevent stray dcache lines after__sync_icache_dcach() · f538881c
      由 Vineet Gupta 提交于 
      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.
