      sparc: join the remaining header files · f5e706ad
      Sam Ravnborg 提交于
      With this commit all sparc64 header files are moved to asm-sparc.
      The remaining files (71 files) were too different to be trivially
      merged so divide them up in a _32.h and a _64.h file which
      are both included from the file with no bit size.
      
      The following script were used:
      cd include
      FILES=`wc -l asm-sparc64/*h | grep -v '^     1' | cut -b 20-`
      
      for FILE in ${FILES}; do
        echo $FILE:
        BASE=`echo $FILE | cut -d '.' -f 1`
        FN32=${BASE}_32.h
        FN64=${BASE}_64.h
        GUARD=___ASM_SPARC_`echo $BASE | tr '-' '_' | tr [:lower:] [:upper:]`_H
        git mv asm-sparc/$FILE asm-sparc/$FN32
        git mv asm-sparc64/$FILE asm-sparc/$FN64
        echo git mv done
        printf "#ifndef %s\n" $GUARD                             >   asm-sparc/$FILE
        printf "#define %s\n" $GUARD                             >>  asm-sparc/$FILE
        printf "#if defined(__sparc__) && defined(__arch64__)\n" >>  asm-sparc/$FILE
        printf "#include <asm-sparc/%s>\n" $FN64                 >>  asm-sparc/$FILE
        printf "#else\n"                                         >>  asm-sparc/$FILE
        printf "#include <asm-sparc/%s>\n" $FN32                 >>  asm-sparc/$FILE
        printf "#endif\n"                                        >>  asm-sparc/$FILE
        printf "#endif\n"                                        >>  asm-sparc/$FILE
        git add asm-sparc/$FILE
        echo new file done
        printf "#include <asm-sparc/%s>\n" $FILE                 >  asm-sparc64/$FILE
        git add asm-sparc64/$FILE
        echo sparc64 file done
      done
      
      The guard contains three '_' to avoid conflict with existing guards.
      In additing the two Kbuild files are emptied to avoid breaking
      headers_* targets.
      We will reintroduce the exported header files when the necessary
      kbuild changes are merged.

      [PATCH] Directed yield: cpu_relax variants for spinlocks and rw-locks · ef6edc97
      Martin Schwidefsky 提交于
      On systems running with virtual cpus there is optimization potential in
      regard to spinlocks and rw-locks.  If the virtual cpu that has taken a lock
      is known to a cpu that wants to acquire the same lock it is beneficial to
      yield the timeslice of the virtual cpu in favour of the cpu that has the
      lock (directed yield).
      
      With CONFIG_PREEMPT="n" this can be implemented by the architecture without
      common code changes.  Powerpc already does this.
      
      With CONFIG_PREEMPT="y" the lock loops are coded with _raw_spin_trylock,
      _raw_read_trylock and _raw_write_trylock in kernel/spinlock.c.  If the lock
      could not be taken cpu_relax is called.  A directed yield is not possible
      because cpu_relax doesn't know anything about the lock.  To be able to
      yield the lock in favour of the current lock holder variants of cpu_relax
      for spinlocks and rw-locks are needed.  The new _raw_spin_relax,
      _raw_read_relax and _raw_write_relax primitives differ from cpu_relax
      insofar that they have an argument: a pointer to the lock structure.

      [PATCH] spinlock consolidation · fb1c8f93
      Ingo Molnar 提交于
      This patch (written by me and also containing many suggestions of Arjan van
      de Ven) does a major cleanup of the spinlock code.  It does the following
      things:
      
       - consolidates and enhances the spinlock/rwlock debugging code
      
       - simplifies the asm/spinlock.h files
      
       - encapsulates the raw spinlock type and moves generic spinlock
         features (such as ->break_lock) into the generic code.
      
       - cleans up the spinlock code hierarchy to get rid of the spaghetti.
      
      Most notably there's now only a single variant of the debugging code,
      located in lib/spinlock_debug.c.  (previously we had one SMP debugging
      variant per architecture, plus a separate generic one for UP builds)
      
      Also, i've enhanced the rwlock debugging facility, it will now track
      write-owners.  There is new spinlock-owner/CPU-tracking on SMP builds too.
      All locks have lockup detection now, which will work for both soft and hard
      spin/rwlock lockups.
      
      The arch-level include files now only contain the minimally necessary
      subset of the spinlock code - all the rest that can be generalized now
      lives in the generic headers:
      
       include/asm-i386/spinlock_types.h       |   16
       include/asm-x86_64/spinlock_types.h     |   16
      
      I have also split up the various spinlock variants into separate files,
      making it easier to see which does what. The new layout is:
      
         SMP                         |  UP
         ----------------------------|-----------------------------------
         asm/spinlock_types_smp.h    |  linux/spinlock_types_up.h
         linux/spinlock_types.h      |  linux/spinlock_types.h
         asm/spinlock_smp.h          |  linux/spinlock_up.h
         linux/spinlock_api_smp.h    |  linux/spinlock_api_up.h
         linux/spinlock.h            |  linux/spinlock.h
      
      /*
       * here's the role of the various spinlock/rwlock related include files:
       *
       * on SMP builds:
       *
       *  asm/spinlock_types.h: contains the raw_spinlock_t/raw_rwlock_t and the

       *
       *  linux/spinlock_types.h:

       *                        implementations, mostly inline assembly code
       *
       *   (also included on UP-debug builds:)
       *
       *  linux/spinlock_api_smp.h:
       *                        contains the prototypes for the _spin_*() APIs.
       *
       *  linux/spinlock.h:     builds the final spin_*() APIs.
       *
       * on UP builds:
       *
       *  linux/spinlock_type_up.h:
       *                        contains the generic, simplified UP spinlock type.
       *                        (which is an empty structure on non-debug builds)
       *
       *  linux/spinlock_types.h:
       *                        defines the generic type and initializers
       *
       *  linux/spinlock_up.h:
       *                        contains the __raw_spin_*()/etc. version of UP
       *                        builds. (which are NOPs on non-debug, non-preempt
       *                        builds)
       *
       *   (included on UP-non-debug builds:)

      arm, i386, ia64, ppc, ppc64, s390/s390x, x64 was build-tested via
      crosscompilers.  m32r, mips, sh, sparc, have not been tested yet, but should
      be mostly fine.

        Booted and lightly tested on a500-44 (64-bit, SMP kernel, dual CPU).
        Builds 32-bit SMP kernel (not booted or tested).  I did not try to build
        non-SMP kernels.  That should be trivial to fix up later if necessary.
      
        I converted bit ops atomic_hash lock to raw_spinlock_t.  Doing so avoids
        some ugly nesting of linux/*.h and asm/*.h files.  Those particular locks
        are well tested and contained entirely inside arch specific code.  I do NOT
        expect any new issues to arise with them.
      
       If someone does ever need to use debug/metrics with them, then they will
        need to unravel this hairball between spinlocks, atomic ops, and bit ops
        that exist only because parisc has exactly one atomic instruction: LDCW
        (load and clear word).

      [SPARC64]: Avoid membar instructions in delay slots. · b445e26c
      David S. Miller 提交于
      In particular, avoid membar instructions in the delay
      slot of a jmpl instruction.
      
      UltraSPARC-I, II, IIi, and IIe have a bug, documented in
      the UltraSPARC-IIi User's Manual, Appendix K, Erratum 51
      
      The long and short of it is that if the IMU unit misses
      on a branch or jmpl, and there is a store buffer synchronizing
      membar in the delay slot, the chip can stop fetching instructions.
      
      If interrupts are enabled or some other trap is enabled, the
      chip will unwedge itself, but performance will suffer.
      
      We already had a workaround for this bug in a few spots, but
      it's better to have the entire tree sanitized for this rule.

      Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
      even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
      archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
      3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
      git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
      infrastructure for it.
      
      Let it rip!
