The layout of the new VSR registers and how they overlap on top of the legacy FPR and VR registers is: VSR doubleword 0 VSR doubleword 1 ---------------------------------------------------------------- VSR[0] | FPR[0] | | ---------------------------------------------------------------- VSR[1] | FPR[1] | | ---------------------------------------------------------------- | ... | | | ... | | ---------------------------------------------------------------- VSR[30] | FPR[30] | | ---------------------------------------------------------------- VSR[31] | FPR[31] | | ---------------------------------------------------------------- VSR[32] | VR[0] | ---------------------------------------------------------------- VSR[33] | VR[1] | ---------------------------------------------------------------- | ... | | ... | ---------------------------------------------------------------- VSR[62] | VR[30] | ---------------------------------------------------------------- VSR[63] | VR[31] | ---------------------------------------------------------------- VSX has 64 128bit registers. The first 32 regs overlap with the FP registers and hence extend them with and additional 64 bits. The second 32 regs overlap with the VMX registers. This commit introduces the thread_struct changes required to reflect this register layout. Ptrace and signals code is updated so that the floating point registers are correctly accessed from the thread_struct when CONFIG_VSX is enabled.

If we set the SPE MSR bit in save_user_regs we can blow away the VEC bit. This doesn't matter in reality as they are in fact the same bit but looks bad. Also, when we add VSX in a later patch, we need to be able to set two separate MSR bits here. Signed-off-by: NMichael Neuling <mikey@neuling.org> Signed-off-by: NPaul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

The current feature section logic only supports nop'ing out code, this means if you want to choose at runtime between instruction sequences, one or both cases will have to execute the nop'ed out contents of the other section, eg: BEGIN_FTR_SECTION or 1,1,1 END_FTR_SECTION_IFSET(FOO) BEGIN_FTR_SECTION or 2,2,2 END_FTR_SECTION_IFCLR(FOO) and the resulting code will be either, or 1,1,1 nop or, nop or 2,2,2 For small code segments this is fine, but for larger code blocks and in performance criticial code segments, it would be nice to avoid the nops. This commit starts to implement logic to allow the following: BEGIN_FTR_SECTION or 1,1,1 FTR_SECTION_ELSE or 2,2,2 ALT_FTR_SECTION_END_IFSET(FOO) and the resulting code will be: or 1,1,1 or, or 2,2,2 We achieve this by extending the existing FTR macros. The current feature section semantic just becomes a special case, ie. if the else case is empty we nop out the default case. The key limitation is that the size of the else case must be less than or equal to the size of the default case. If the else case is smaller the remainder of the section is nop'ed. We let the linker put the else case code in with the rest of the text, so that relative branches from the else case are more likley to link, this has the disadvantage that we can't free the unused else cases. This commit introduces the required macro and linker script changes, but does not enable the patching of the alternative sections. We also need to update two hand-made section entries in reg.h and timex.h Signed-off-by: NMichael Ellerman <michael@ellerman.id.au> Signed-off-by: NPaul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

The logic to patch CPU feature sections lives in cputable.c, but these days it's used for CPU features as well as firmware features. Move it into it's own file for neatness and as preparation for some additions. While we're moving the code, we pull the loop body logic into a separate routine, and remove a comment which doesn't apply anymore.

Currently create_branch() creates a branch instruction for you, and patches it into the call site. In some circumstances it would be nice to be able to create the instruction and patch it later, and also some code might want to check for errors in the branch creation before doing the patching. A future commit will change create_branch() to check for errors. For callers that don't care, replace create_branch() with patch_branch(), which just creates the branch and patches it directly. While we're touching all the callers, change to using unsigned int *, as this seems to match usage better. That allows (and requires) us to remove the volatile in the definition of vector in powermac/smp.c and mpc86xx_smp.c, that's correct because now that we're passing vector as an unsigned int * the compiler knows that it's value might change across the patch_branch() call.

We currently have a few routines for patching code in asm/system.h, because they didn't fit anywhere else. I'd like to clean them up a little and add some more, so first move them into a dedicated C file - they don't need to be inlined.

If we have an L2CSR register (e500mc) we need to flush the L2 before going to nap. We use the HW flush mechanism provided in that register. The code reuses the CPU_FTR_604_PERF_MON bit as it is no longer used by any code in the kernel. Additionally we didn't reuse the exist L2CR feature bit as this is intended for the 7xxx L2CR register and L2CSR is part of the new Freescale "Book-E" registers.

由 Linus Torvalds 提交于
KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki and Oleg Nesterov point out that since the commit 557ed1fa ("remove ZERO_PAGE") removed the ZERO_PAGE from the VM mappings, any users of get_user_pages() will generally now populate the VM with real empty pages needlessly. We used to get the ZERO_PAGE when we did the "handle_mm_fault()", but since fault handling no longer uses ZERO_PAGE for new anonymous pages, we now need to handle that special case in follow_page() instead. In particular, the removal of ZERO_PAGE effectively removed the core file writing optimization where we would skip writing pages that had not been populated at all, and increased memory pressure a lot by allocating all those useless newly zeroed pages. This reinstates the optimization by making the unmapped PTE case the same as for a non-existent page table, which already did this correctly. While at it, this also fixes the XIP case for follow_page(), where the caller could not differentiate between the case of a page that simply could not be used (because it had no "struct page" associated with it) and a page that just wasn't mapped. We do that by simply returning an error pointer for pages that could not be turned into a "struct page *". The error is arbitrarily picked to be EFAULT, since that was what get_user_pages() already used for the equivalent IO-mapped page case. [ Also removed an impossible test for pte_offset_map_lock() failing: that's not how that function works ] Acked-by: NOleg Nesterov <oleg@tv-sign.ru> Acked-by: NNick Piggin <npiggin@suse.de> Cc: KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki <kamezawa.hiroyu@jp.fujitsu.com> Cc: Hugh Dickins <hugh@veritas.com> Cc: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Cc: Roland McGrath <roland@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

GCC 4.4.x looks to be adding support for generating out-of-line register saves/restores based on: http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2008-04/msg01678.html This breaks the kernel if we enable CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE. To fix this we add the use the save/restore code from gcc and simplified it down for our needs (integer only). Additionally, we have to link this code into each module. The other solution was to add EXPORT_SYMBOL() which meant going through the trampoline which seemed nonsensical for these out-of-line routines. Finally, we add some checks to prom_init_check.sh to ignore the out-of-line save/restore functions.

When building a signal or a ucontext, we can incorrectly set the MSR_VEC bit of the kernel pt_regs->msr before returning to userspace if the task -ever- used VMX. This can lead to funny result if that stack used it in the past, then "lost" it (ie. it wasn't enabled after a context switch for example) and then called get_context. It can end up with VMX enabled and the registers containing values from some other task.

On machines with more than one exception level any system register that might be modified by the "normal" exception level needs to be saved and restored on taking a higher level exception. We already are saving and restoring ESR and DEAR. For critical level add SRR0/1. For debug level add CSRR0/1 and SRR0/1. For machine check level add DSRR0/1, CSRR0/1, and SRR0/1. On FSL Book-E parts we always save/restore the MAS registers for critical, debug, and machine check level exceptions. On 44x we always save/restore the MMUCR. Additionally, we save and restore the ksp_limit since we have to adjust it for each exception level.
