      sh: Minor optimisations to FPU handling · d3ea9fa0
      由 Stuart Menefy 提交于 
      A number of small optimisations to FPU handling, in particular:

 - move the task USEDFPU flag from the thread_info flags field (which
   is accessed asynchronously to the thread) to a new status field,
   which is only accessed by the thread itself. This allows locking to
   be removed in most cases, or can be reduced to a preempt_lock().
   This mimics the i386 behaviour.

 - move the modification of regs->sr and thread_info->status flags out
   of save_fpu() to __unlazy_fpu(). This gives the compiler a better
   chance to optimise things, as well as making save_fpu() symmetrical
   with restore_fpu() and init_fpu().

 - implement prepare_to_copy(), so that when creating a thread, we can
   unlazy the FPU prior to copying the thread data structures.

Also make sure that the FPU is disabled while in the kernel, in
particular while booting, and for newly created kernel threads,

In a very artificial benchmark, the execution time for 2500000
context switches was reduced from 50 to 45 seconds.

      sh: add sleazy FPU optimization · a0458b07
      由 Giuseppe CAVALLARO 提交于 
      sh port of the sLeAZY-fpu feature currently implemented for some architectures
such us i386.

Right now the SH kernel has a 100% lazy fpu behaviour.
This is of course great for applications that have very sporadic or no FPU use.
However for very frequent FPU users...  you take an extra trap every context
switch.
The patch below adds a simple heuristic to this code: after 5 consecutive
context switches of FPU use, the lazy behavior is disabled and the context
gets restored every context switch.
After 256 switches, this is reset and the 100% lazy behavior is returned.

Tests with LMbench showed no regression.
I saw a little improvement due to the prefetching (~2%).

The tests below also show that, with this sLeazy patch, indeed,
the number of FPU exceptions is reduced.
To test this. I hacked the lat_ctx LMBench to use the FPU a little more.

      sh: Kill off the unhandled pvr case in SH-4 CPU probing. · eccee745
      由 Paul Mundt 提交于 
      This is superfluous, as the default CPU type and family are already
established by the initial cpuinfo definition. Given that we are still
able to probe for the CPU family even if we are not able to detect the
subtype, it's preferable to let the probing code fill out what it can and
leave the rest.

      sh: Track the CPU family in sh_cpuinfo. · e82da214
      由 Paul Mundt 提交于 
      This adds a family member to struct sh_cpuinfo, which allows us to fall
back more on the probe routines to work out what sort of subtype we are
running on. This will be used by the CPU cache initialization code in
order to first do family-level initialization, followed by subtype-level
optimizations.

      sh: Kill off broken direct-mapped cache mode. · e8208828
      由 Paul Mundt 提交于 
      Forcing direct-mapped worked on certain older 2-way set associative
parts, but was always error prone on 4-way parts. As these are the
norm these days, there is not much point in continuing to support this
mode. Most of the folks that used direct-mapped mode generally just
wanted writethrough caching in the first place..

      sh: Support for extended ASIDs on PTEAEX-capable SH-X3 cores. · 8263a67e
      由 Paul Mundt 提交于 
      This adds support for extended ASIDs (up to 16-bits) on newer SH-X3 cores
that implement the PTAEX register and respective functionality. Presently
only the 65nm SH7786 (90nm only supports legacy 8-bit ASIDs).

The main change is in how the PTE is written out when loading the entry
in to the TLB, as well as in how the TLB entry is selectively flushed.

While SH-X2 extended mode splits out the memory-mapped U and I-TLB data
arrays for extra bits, extended ASID mode splits out the address arrays.
While we don't use the memory-mapped data array access, the address
array accesses are necessary for selective TLB flushes, so these are
implemented newly and replace the generic SH-4 implementation.

With this, TLB flushes in switch_mm() are almost non-existent on newer
parts.

      sh: hibernation support · 2ef7f0da
      由 Magnus Damm 提交于 
      Add Suspend-to-disk / swsusp / CONFIG_HIBERNATION support
to the SuperH architecture.

To suspend, use "swapon /dev/sda2; echo disk > /sys/power/state"
To resume, pass "resume=/dev/sda2" on the kernel command line.

The patch "pm: rework includes, remove arch ifdefs V2" is
needed to allow the generic swsusp code to build properly.

Hibernation is not enabled with this patch though, a patch
setting ARCH_HIBERNATION_POSSIBLE will be submitted later.
