For performance reasons we are about to change ISYNC_ON_SMP to sometimes be lwsync. Now that the macro name doesn't make sense, change it and LWSYNC_ON_SMP to better explain what the barriers are doing.

Change 2d1b2027 ("powerpc: Fixup lwsync at runtime") removed __SUBARCH_HAS_LWSYNC, causing smp_wmb to revert back to eieio for all CPUs. This restores the behaviour intorduced in 74f06095 ("powerpc: Optimise smp_wmb on 64-bit processors"). Signed-off-by: NNick Piggin <npiggin@suse.de> Signed-off-by: NPaul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

from include/asm-powerpc. This is the result of a mkdir arch/powerpc/include/asm git mv include/asm-powerpc/* arch/powerpc/include/asm Followed by a few documentation/comment fixups and a couple of places where <asm-powepc/...> was being used explicitly. Of the latter only one was outside the arch code and it is a driver only built for powerpc. Signed-off-by: NStephen Rothwell <sfr@canb.auug.org.au> Signed-off-by: NPaul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

To allow for a single kernel image on e500 v1/v2/mc we need to fixup lwsync at runtime. On e500v1/v2 lwsync causes an illop so we need to patch up the code. We default to 'sync' since that is always safe and if the cpu is capable we will replace 'sync' with 'lwsync'. We introduce CPU_FTR_LWSYNC as a way to determine at runtime if this is needed. This flag could be moved elsewhere since we dont really use it for the normal CPU_FTR purpose. Finally we only store the relative offset in the fixup section to keep it as small as possible rather than using a full fixup_entry.

The new e500mc core from Freescale is based on the e500v2 but with the following changes: * Supports only the Enhanced Debug Architecture (DSRR0/1, etc) * Floating Point * No SPE * Supports lwsync * Doorbell Exceptions * Hypervisor * Cache line size is now 64-bytes (e500v1/v2 have a 32-byte cache line) Signed-off-by: NKumar Gala <galak@kernel.crashing.org>

Add a newline at the end of the ISYNC_ON_SMP string. Needed for a subsequent patch. Signed-off-by: NNick Piggin <npiggin@suse.de> Signed-off-by: NPaul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

eieio is only a store - store ordering. When used to order an unlock operation loads may leak out of the critical region. This is potentially buggy, one example is if a user wants to atomically read a couple of values. We can solve this with an lwsync which orders everything except store - load. I removed the (now unused) EIEIO_ON_SMP macros and the c versions isync_on_smp and eieio_on_smp now we dont use them. I also removed some old comments that were used to identify inline spinlocks in assembly, they dont make sense now our locks are out of line. Another interesting thing was that read_unlock was using an eieio even though the rest of the spinlock code had already been converted to use lwsync.

include/asm-ppc/ had #ifdef __KERNEL__ in all header files that are not meant for use by user space, include/asm-powerpc does not have this yet. This patch gets us a lot closer there. There are a few cases where I was not sure, so I left them out. I have verified that no CONFIG_* symbols are used outside of __KERNEL__ any more and that there are no obvious compile errors when including any of the headers in user space libraries.

powerpc: Merge atomic.h and memory.h into powerpc Merged atomic.h into include/powerpc. Moved asm-style HMT_ defines from memory.h into ppc_asm.h, where there were already HMT_defines; moved c-style HMT_ defines to processor.h. Renamed memory.h to synch.h to better reflect its contents.
