      [POWERPC] spufs: add infrastructure for finding elf objects · 86767277
      Arnd Bergmann 提交于
      This adds an 'object-id' file that the spe library can
      use to store a pointer to its ELF object. This was
      originally meant for use by oprofile, but is now
      also used by the GNU debugger, if available.
      
      In order for oprofile to find the location in an spu-elf
      binary where an event counter triggered, we need a way
      to identify the binary in the first place.
      
      Unfortunately, that binary itself can be embedded in a
      powerpc ELF binary. Since we can assume it is mapped into
      the effective address space of the running process,
      have that one write the pointer value into a new spufs
      file.
      
      When a context switch occurs, pass the user value to
      the profiler so that can look at the mapped file (with
      some care).

      [POWERPC] spufs: add support for read/write on cntl · e1dbff2b
      Arnd Bergmann 提交于
      Writing to cntl can be used to stop execution on the
      spu and to restart it, reading from cntl gives the
      contents of the current status register.
      
      The access is always in ascii, as for most other files.
      
      This was always meant to be there, but we had a little
      problem with writing to runctl so it was left out so
      far.

      [POWERPC] spufs: make mailbox functions handle multiple elements · cdcc89bb
      Arnd Bergmann 提交于
      Since libspe2 will provide a function that can read/write
      multiple mailbox elements at once, the kernel should handle
      that efficiently.
      
      read/write on the three mailbox files can now access the
      spe context multiple times to operate on any number of
      mailbox data elements.
      
      If the spu application keeps writing to its outbound
      mailbox, the read call will pick up all the data in a
      single system call.
      
      Unfortunately, if the user passes an invalid pointer,
      we may lose a mailbox element on read, since we can't
      put it back. This probably impossible to solve, if the
      user also accesses the mailbox through direct register
      access.

      [POWERPC] spufs: use correct pg_prot for mapping SPU local store · ac91cb8d
      Arnd Bergmann 提交于
      This hopefully fixes a long-standing bug in the spu file system.
      An spu context comes with local memory that can be either saved
      in kernel pages or point directly to a physical SPE.
      
      When mapping the physical SPE, that mapping needs to be cache-inhibited.
      For simplicity, we used to map the kernel backing memory that way
      too, but unfortunately that was not only inefficient, but also incorrect
      because the same page could then be accessed simultaneously through
      a cacheable and a cache-inhibited mapping, which is not allowed
      by the powerpc specification and in our case caused data inconsistency
      for which we did a really ugly workaround in user space.

      [POWERPC] spufs: cell spu problem state mapping updates · 27d5bf2a
      Benjamin Herrenschmidt 提交于
      This patch adds a new "psmap" file to spufs that allows mmap of all of
      the problem state mapping of SPEs. It is compatible with 64k pages. In
      addition, it removes mmap ability of individual files when using 64k
      pages, with the exception of signal1 and signal2 which will both map the
      entire 64k page holding both registers. It also removes
      CONFIG_SPUFS_MMAP as there is no point in not building mmap support in
      spufs.
      
      It goes along a separate patch to libspe implementing usage of that new
      file to access problem state registers.
      
      Another patch will follow up to fix races opened up by accessing
      the 'runcntl' register directly, which is made possible with this
      patch.

      [PATCH] spufs: enable SPE problem state MMIO access. · 6df10a82
      Mark Nutter 提交于
      This patch is layered on top of CONFIG_SPARSEMEM
      and is patterned after direct mapping of LS.
      
      This patch allows mmap() of the following regions:
      "mfc", which represents the area from [0x3000 - 0x3fff];
      "cntl", which represents the area from [0x4000 - 0x4fff];
      "signal1" which begins at offset 0x14000; "signal2" which
      begins at offset 0x1c000.
      
      The signal1 & signal2 files may be mmap()'d by regular user
      processes.  The cntl and mfc file, on the other hand, may
      only be accessed if the owning process has CAP_SYS_RAWIO,
      because they have the potential to confuse the kernel
      with regard to parallel access to the same files with
      regular file operations: the kernel always holds a spinlock
      when accessing registers in these areas to serialize them,
      which can not be guaranteed with user mmaps,

      [PATCH] spufs: implement mfc access for PPE-side DMA · a33a7d73
      Arnd Bergmann 提交于
      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.
