Starting up the C compiler can be a slow operation on some systems. Though these calls don't individually take a lot of time, they add up. Rearrange the ARM Makefile a bit to avoid extra calls to the compiler when they can be easily avoided. When running with the Chrome OS ARM cross compiler "armv7a-cros-linux-gnueabi-", this shaved .55 seconds (from 5.31 seconds to 4.76 seconds) off an incremental build of the kernel: time make -j32 ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=armv7a-cros-linux-gnueabi- Thanks to Mike Frysinger for the clean trick to make this work.

Looking into the active_asids array is not enough, as we also need to look into the reserved_asids array (they both represent processes that are currently running). Also, not holding the ASID allocator lock is racy, as another CPU could schedule that process and trigger a rollover, making the erratum workaround miss an IPI. Exposing this outside of context.c is a little ugly on the side, so let's define a new entry point that the erratum workaround can call to obtain the cpumask.

On a CPU that never ran anything, both the active and reserved ASID fields are set to zero. In this case the ASID_TO_IDX() macro will return -1, which is not a very useful value to index a bitmap. Instead of trying to offset the ASID so that ASID #1 is actually bit 0 in the asid_map bitmap, just always ignore bit 0 and start the search from bit 1. This makes the code a bit more readable, and without risk of OoB access.

When a CPU is running a process, the ASID for that process is held in a per-CPU variable (the "active ASIDs" array). When the ASID allocator handles a rollover, it copies the active ASIDs into a "reserved ASIDs" array to ensure that a process currently running on another CPU will continue to run unaffected. The active array is zero-ed to indicate that a rollover occurred. Because of this mechanism, a reserved ASID is only remembered for a single rollover. A subsequent rollover will completely refill the reserved ASIDs array. In a severely oversubscribed environment where a CPU can be prevented from running for extended periods of time (think virtual machines), the above has a horrible side effect: [P{a} denotes process P running with ASID a] CPU-0 CPU-1 A{x} [active = <x 0>] [suspended] runs B{y} [active = <x y>] [rollover: active = <0 0> reserved = <x y>] runs B{y} [active = <0 y> reserved = <x y>] [rollover: active = <0 0> reserved = <0 y>] runs C{x} [active = <0 x>] [resumes] runs A{x} At that stage, both A and C have the same ASID, with deadly consequences. The fix is to preserve reserved ASIDs across rollovers if the CPU doesn't have an active ASID when the rollover occurs.

由 Mark Rutland 提交于
When booting fewer cores than are physically present on a versatile platform (e.g. when passing maxcpus=N on the command line), some secondary cores may remain in the holding pen, which is marked __INIT, as each CPU's gic cpumask is initialised to 0xff, and thus an IPI to any CPU will wake up *all* secondaries. This behaviour is crucial to the GIC cpumask self-discovery. Late in the boot process, the memory comprising the holding pen will be released to the kernel for more general use, and may be overwritten with arbitrary data, which can cause the held secondaries to start behaving unpredictably. This can lead to all manner of odd behaviour from the kernel. As preventing cpus from entering the pen would require invasive changes to the GIC driver and to existing dts used in the wild, we instead remove the __INIT marker from the pen, keeping it around and leaving the unused secondary CPUs dormant.

Since commit 6a1c5312 the user writeable TLS register was zeroed to prevent it from being used as a covert channel between two tasks. There are more and more applications coming to Windows RT, Wine could support them, but mostly they expect to have the thread environment block (TEB) in TPIDRURW. This patch preserves that register per thread instead of clearing it. Unlike the TPIDRURO, which is already switched, the TPIDRURW can be updated from userspace so needs careful treatment in the case that we modify TPIDRURW and call fork(). To avoid this we must always read TPIDRURW in copy_thread.

This commit fixes the regression on Armada 370 (the kernal hang during boot) introduced by the commit: "ARM: 7691/1: mm: kill unused TLB_CAN_READ_FROM_L1_CACHE and use ALT_SMP instead". When coming out of either a Wait for Interrupt (WFI) or a Wait for Event (WFE) IDLE states, a specific timing sensitivity exists between the retiring WFI/WFE instructions and the newly issued subsequent instructions. This sensitivity can result in a CPU hang scenario. The workaround is to insert either a Data Synchronization Barrier (DSB) or Data Memory Barrier (DMB) command immediately after the WFI/WFE instruction. This commit was based on the work of Lior Amsalem, but heavily modified to apply the errata fix dynamically according to the processor type thanks to the suggestions of Russell King and Nicolas Pitre.

Applies to arm-soc/for-next (and 3.10-rc1). Changes since v1: 1. remove WFI but make sure cpu_fa526_do_idle do not fall through to cpu_fa526_dcache_clean_area Note: moxart boots and prints to UART without this patch, but input is broken.

Add comments to machine_shutdown()/halt()/power_off()/restart() that describe their purpose and/or requirements re: CPUs being active/not. In machine_shutdown(), replace the call to smp_send_stop() with a call to disable_nonboot_cpus(). This completely disables all but one CPU, thus satisfying the requirement that only a single CPU be active for kexec. Adjust Kconfig dependencies for this change. In machine_halt()/power_off()/restart(), call smp_send_stop() directly, rather than via machine_shutdown(); these functions don't need to completely de-activate all CPUs using hotplug, but rather just quiesce them. Remove smp_kill_cpus(), and its call from smp_send_stop(). smp_kill_cpus() was indirectly calling smp_ops.cpu_kill() without calling smp_ops.cpu_die() on the target CPUs first. At least some implementations of smp_ops had issues with this; it caused cpu_kill() to hang on Tegra, for example. Since smp_send_stop() is only used for shutdown, halt, and power-off, there is no need to attempt any kind of CPU hotplug here. Adjust Kconfig to reflect that machine_shutdown() (and hence kexec) relies upon disable_nonboot_cpus(). However, this alone doesn't guarantee that hotplug will work, or even that hotplug is implemented for a particular piece of HW that a multi-platform zImage runs on. Hence, add error-checking to machine_kexec() to determine whether it did work.

Printing low-level debug messages make an assumption that the specified UART port has been preconfigured by the bootloader. Incorrectly specified UART port results in system getting stalled while printing the message "Uncompressing Linux... done, booting the kernel" This UART port number is specified through S3C_LOWLEVEL_UART_PORT. Since the UART port might different for different board, it is not possible to specify it correctly for every board that use a common defconfig file. Calling this print subroutine only when DEBUG_LL fixes the problem. By disabling DEBUG_LL in default config file, we would be able to boot multiple boards with different default UART ports. With this current approach, we miss the print "Uncompressing Linux... done, booting the kernel." when DEBUG_LL is not defined.

Currently flush_dcache_page() thinks pages as non-mapped if mapping_mapped(mapping) return false. This approach is very coase: - mmap on part of file may cause all pages backed on the file being thought as mmaped - file-backed pages aren't mapped into user space actually if the memory mmaped on the file isn't accessed This patch uses page_mapped() to decide if the page has been mapped. From the attached test code, I find there is much performance improvement(>25%) when accessing page caches via read under this situations, so memcpy benefits a lot from not flushing cache under this situation.

__my_cpu_offset is non-volatile, since we want its value to be cached when we access several per-cpu variables in a row with preemption disabled. This means that we rely on preempt_{en,dis}able to hazard with the operation via the barrier() macro, so that we can't end up migrating CPUs without reloading the per-cpu offset. Unfortunately, GCC doesn't treat a "memory" clobber on a non-volatile asm block as a side-effect, and will happily re-order it before other memory clobbers (including those in prempt_disable()) and cache the value. This has been observed to break the cmpxchg logic in the slub allocator, leading to livelock in kmem_cache_alloc in mainline kernels. This patch adds a dummy memory input operand to __my_cpu_offset, forcing it to be ordered with respect to the barrier() macro.

The previous mask values for the legacy ARM CPU IDs were conflicting with the CPU ID assignments for late-generation CPUs (like the Qualcomm MSM/QSD or Broadcom Brahma-15 processors). This change corrects the legacy ARM CPU ID value so that the jump table can fall-through to the appropriate cache maintenance / MMU functions.

In August 2012, Matthew Gretton-Dann checked a change into binutils labelled "Error on obsolete & warn on deprecated registers", apparently as part of ARMv8 support. Apparently, this was supposed to emit the message "Warning: This coprocessor register access is deprecated in ARMv8" when using certain mcr/mrc instructions and building for ARMv8. Unfortunately, the message that is actually emitted appears to be '(null)', which is less helpful in comparison. Even more unfortunately, this is biting us on every single kernel build with a new gas, because arch/arm/boot/compressed/head.S and some other files in that directory are built with -march=all since kernel commit 80cec14a "[ARM] Add -march=all to assembly file build in arch/arm/boot/compressed" back in v2.6.28. This patch reverts Russell's nice solution and instead marks the head.S file to be built for armv7-a, which fortunately lets us build all instructions in that file without warnings even on the broken binutils. Without this patch, building anything results in: arch/arm/boot/compressed/head.S: Assembler messages: arch/arm/boot/compressed/head.S:565: Warning: (null) arch/arm/boot/compressed/head.S:676: Warning: (null) arch/arm/boot/compressed/head.S:698: Warning: (null) arch/arm/boot/compressed/head.S:722: Warning: (null) arch/arm/boot/compressed/head.S:726: Warning: (null) arch/arm/boot/compressed/head.S:957: Warning: (null) arch/arm/boot/compressed/head.S:996: Warning: (null) arch/arm/boot/compressed/head.S:997: Warning: (null) arch/arm/boot/compressed/head.S:1027: Warning: (null) arch/arm/boot/compressed/head.S:1035: Warning: (null) arch/arm/boot/compressed/head.S:1046: Warning: (null) arch/arm/boot/compressed/head.S:1060: Warning: (null) arch/arm/boot/compressed/head.S:1092: Warning: (null) arch/arm/boot/compressed/head.S:1094: Warning: (null) arch/arm/boot/compressed/head.S:1095: Warning: (null) arch/arm/boot/compressed/head.S:1102: Warning: (null) arch/arm/boot/compressed/head.S:1134: Warning: (null) Signed-off-by: NArnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de> Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Cc: Matthew Gretton-Dann <matthew.gretton-dann@arm.com> Signed-off-by: NRussell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
