On uniprocessor, it's always zero for optimize that.

On SMP, the jmpl to the stub kills the return address stack in the cpu
branch prediction logic, so expand the code sequence inline and use a
code patching section to fix things up.  This also always better and
explicit register selection, which will be taken advantage of in a
future changeset.

The hard_smp_processor_id() function is big, so do not inline it.

Fix up tests for Jalapeno to also test for Serrano chips too.  These
tests want "jbus Ultra-IIIi" cases to match, so that is what we should
test for.

There are several tricky races involved with growing the TSB.  So just
use base-size TSBs for user contexts and we can revisit enabling this
later.

One part of the SMP problems is that tsb_context_switch() can see
partially updated TSB configuration state if tsb_grow() is running in
parallel.  That's easily solved with a seqlock taken as a writer by
tsb_grow() and taken as a reader to capture all the TSB config state
in tsb_context_switch().

Then there is flush_tsb_user() running in parallel with a tsb_grow().
In theory we could take the seqlock as a reader there too, and just
resample the TSB pointer and reflush but that looks really ugly.

Lastly, I believe there is a case with threads that results in a TSB
entry lock bit being set spuriously which will cause the next access
to that TSB entry to wedge the cpu (since the TSB entry lock bit will
never clear).  It's either copy_tsb() or some bug elsewhere in the TSB
assembly.

The are distrupting, which by the sparc v9 definition means they
can only occur when interrupts are enabled in the %pstate register.
This never occurs in any of the trap handling code running at
trap levels > 0.

So just mark it as an unexpected trap.

This allows us to kill off the cee_stuff member of struct thread_info.

This way we don't need to lock the TSB into the TLB.
The trick is that every TSB load/store is registered into
a special instruction patch section.  The default uses
virtual addresses, and the patch instructions use physical
address load/stores.

We can't do this on all chips because only cheetah+ and later
have the physical variant of the atomic quad load.

Since we use %g5 itself as a temporary, it can get clobbered

This also cleans up tsb_context_switch().  The assembler
routine is now __tsb_context_switch() and the former is
an inline function that picks out the bits from the mm_struct
and passes it into the assembler code as arguments.

setup_tsb_parms() computes the locked TLB entry to map the
TSB.  Later when we support using the physical address quad
load instructions of Cheetah+ and later, we'll simply use
the physical address for the TSB register value and set
the map virtual and PTE both to zero.

UltraSPARC has special sets of global registers which are switched to
for certain trap types.  There is one set for MMU related traps, one
set of Interrupt Vector processing, and another set (called the
Alternate globals) for all other trap types.

For what seems like forever we've hard coded the values in some of
these trap registers.  Some examples include:

1) Interrupt Vector global %g6 holds current processors interrupt
   work struct where received interrupts are managed for IRQ handler
   dispatch.

2) MMU global %g7 holds the base of the page tables of the currently
   active address space.

3) Alternate global %g6 held the current_thread_info() value.

Such hardcoding has resulted in some serious issues in many areas.
There are some code sequences where having another register available
would help clean up the implementation.  Taking traps such as
cross-calls from the OBP firmware requires some trick code sequences
wherein we have to save away and restore all of the special sets of
global registers when we enter/exit OBP.

We were also using the IMMU TSB register on SMP to hold the per-cpu
area base address, which doesn't work any longer now that we actually
use the TSB facility of the cpu.

The implementation is pretty straight forward.  One tricky bit is
getting the current processor ID as that is different on different cpu
variants.  We use a stub with a fancy calling convention which we
patch at boot time.  The calling convention is that the stub is
branched to and the (PC - 4) to return to is in register %g1.  The cpu
number is left in %g6.  This stub can be invoked by using the
__GET_CPUID macro.

We use an array of per-cpu trap state to store the current thread and
physical address of the current address space's page tables.  The
TRAP_LOAD_THREAD_REG loads %g6 with the current thread from this
table, it uses __GET_CPUID and also clobbers %g1.

TRAP_LOAD_IRQ_WORK is used by the interrupt vector processing to load
the current processor's IRQ software state into %g6.  It also uses
__GET_CPUID and clobbers %g1.

Finally, TRAP_LOAD_PGD_PHYS loads the physical address base of the
current address space's page tables into %g7, it clobbers %g1 and uses
__GET_CPUID.

Many refinements are possible, as well as some tuning, with this stuff
in place.

We now use the TSB hardware assist features of the UltraSPARC
MMUs.

SMP is currently knowingly broken, we need to find another place
to store the per-cpu base pointers.  We hid them away in the TSB
base register, and that obviously will not work any more :-)

Another known broken case is non-8KB base page size.

Also noticed that flush_tlb_all() is not referenced anywhere, only
the internal __flush_tlb_all() (local cpu only) is used by the
sparc64 port, so we can get rid of flush_tlb_all().

The kernel gets it's own 8KB TSB (swapper_tsb) and each address space
gets it's own private 8K TSB.  Later we can add code to dynamically
increase the size of per-process TSB as the RSS grows.  An 8KB TSB is
good enough for up to about a 4MB RSS, after which the TSB starts to
incur many capacity and conflict misses.

We even accumulate OBP translations into the kernel TSB.

Another area for refinement is large page size support.  We could use
a secondary address space TSB to handle those.

Here is a series of patches which introduce in total 13 new system calls
which take a file descriptor/filename pair instead of a single file
name.  These functions, openat etc, have been discussed on numerous
occasions.  They are needed to implement race-free filesystem traversal,
they are necessary to implement a virtual per-thread current working
directory (think multi-threaded backup software), etc.

We have in glibc today implementations of the interfaces which use the
/proc/self/fd magic.  But this code is rather expensive.  Here are some
results (similar to what Jim Meyering posted before).

The test creates a deep directory hierarchy on a tmpfs filesystem.  Then
rm -fr is used to remove all directories.  Without syscall support I get
this:

real    0m31.921s
user    0m0.688s
sys     0m31.234s

With syscall support the results are much better:

real    0m20.699s
user    0m0.536s
sys     0m20.149s

The interfaces are for obvious reasons currently not much used.  But they'll
be used.  coreutils (and Jeff's posixutils) are already using them.
Furthermore, code like ftw/fts in libc (maybe even glob) will also start using
them.  I expect a patch to make follow soon.  Every program which is walking
the filesystem tree will benefit.
