* ARM: udelay: prevent math rounding resulting in short udelaysRussell King2011-01-10
| | | | | | | | | We perform the microseconds to loops calculation using a number of multiplies and shift rights. Each shift right rounds down the resulting value, which can result in delays shorter than requested. Ensure that we always round up. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The find_next_bit, find_first_bit, find_next_zero_bit and find_first_zero_bit functions were not properly clamping to the maxbit argument at the bit level. They were instead only checking maxbit at the byte level. To fix this, add a compare and a conditional move instruction to the end of the common bit-within-the- byte code used by all the functions and be sure not to clobber the maxbit argument before it is used.

* | ARM: 6384/1: Remove the domain switching on ARMv6k/v7 CPUsCatalin Marinas2010-11-04
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch removes the domain switching functionality via the set_fs and __switch_to functions on cores that have a TLS register. Currently, the ioremap and vmalloc areas share the same level 1 page tables and therefore have the same domain (DOMAIN_KERNEL). When the kernel domain is modified from Client to Manager (via the __set_fs or in the __switch_to function), the XN (eXecute Never) bit is overridden and newer CPUs can speculatively prefetch the ioremap'ed memory. Linux performs the kernel domain switching to allow user-specific functions (copy_to/from_user, get/put_user etc.) to access kernel memory. In order for these functions to work with the kernel domain set to Client, the patch modifies the LDRT/STRT and related instructions to the LDR/STR ones. The user pages access rights are also modified for kernel read-only access rather than read/write so that the copy-on-write mechanism still works. CPU_USE_DOMAINS gets disabled only if the hardware has a TLS register (CPU_32v6K is defined) since writing the TLS value to the high vectors page isn't possible. The user addresses passed to the kernel are checked by the access_ok() function so that they do not point to the kernel space.

* | include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking ↵Tejun Heo2010-03-30
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies. percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is used as the basis of conversion. http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py The script does the followings. * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used, gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h. * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered - alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there doesn't seem to be any matching order. * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the file. The conversion was done in the following steps. 1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400 files. 2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion, some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added inclusions to around 150 files. 3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits from #2 to make sure no file was left behind. 4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed. e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually. 5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as necessary. 6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h. 7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq). * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config. * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig * ia64 SMP allmodconfig * s390 SMP allmodconfig * alpha SMP allmodconfig * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig 8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as a separate patch and serve as bisection point. Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step 6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch. If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of the specific arch.

|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Optimized version of copy_page() was written with assumption that cache line size is 32 bytes. On Cortex-A8 cache line size is 64 bytes. This patch tries to generalize copy_page() to work with any cache line size if cache line size is multiple of 16 and page size is multiple of two cache line size. After this optimization we've got ~25% speedup on OMAP3(tested in userspace). There is test for kernelspace which trigger copy-on-write after fork(): #include <stdlib.h> #include <string.h> #include <unistd.h> #define BUF_SIZE (10000*4096) #define NFORK 200 int main(int argc, char **argv) { char *buf = malloc(BUF_SIZE); int i; memset(buf, 0, BUF_SIZE); for(i = 0; i < NFORK; i++) { if (fork()) { wait(NULL); } else { int j; for(j = 0; j < BUF_SIZE; j+= 4096) buf[j] = (j & 0xFF) + 1; break; } } free(buf); return 0; } Before optimization this test takes ~66 seconds, after optimization takes ~56 seconds.

| * [ARM] alternative copy_to_user: more precise fallback thresholdNicolas Pitre2009-05-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previous size thresholds were guessed from various user space benchmarks using a kernel with and without the alternative uaccess option. This is however not as precise as a kernel based test to measure the real speed of each method. This adds a simple test bench to show the time needed for each method. With this, the optimal size treshold for the alternative implementation can be determined with more confidence. It appears that the optimal threshold for both copy_to_user and clear_user is around 64 bytes. This is not a surprise knowing that the memcpy and memset implementations need at least 64 bytes to achieve maximum throughput. One might suggest that such test be used to determine the optimal threshold at run time instead, but results are near enough to 64 on tested targets concerned by this alternative copy_to_user implementation, so adding some overhead associated with a variable threshold is probably not worth it for now.

| * [ARM] lower overhead with alternative copy_to_user for small copiesNicolas Pitre2009-05-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Because the alternate copy_to_user implementation has a higher setup cost than the standard implementation, the size of the memory area to copy is tested and the standard implementation invoked instead when that size is too small. Still, that test is made after the processor has preserved a bunch of registers on the stack which have to be reloaded right away needlessly in that case, causing a measurable performance regression compared to plain usage of the standard implementation only. To make the size test overhead negligible, let's factorize it out of the alternate copy_to_user function where it is clear to the compiler that no stack frame is needed. Thanks to CONFIG_ARM_UNWIND allowing for frame pointers to be disabled and tail call optimization to kick in, the overhead in the small copy case becomes only 3 assembly instructions. A similar trick is applied to clear_user as well. Signed-off-by: Nicolas Pitre <nico@marvell.com>
| * [ARM] alternative copy_to_user/clear_user implementationLennert Buytenhek2009-05-29

This is a win if the regular mem{cpy,set}() implementations are faster than the user copy functions, which is the case e.g. on Feroceon, where 8-word STMs (which memcpy() uses under the right conditions) give significantly higher memory write throughput than a sequence of individual 32bit stores. Here are numbers for page sized buffers on some Feroceon cores: - copy_to_user on Orion5x goes from 51 MB/s to 83 MB/s - clear_user on Orion5x goes from 89MB/s to 314MB/s - copy_to_user on Kirkwood goes from 240 MB/s to 356 MB/s - clear_user on Kirkwood goes from 367 MB/s to 1108 MB/s - copy_to_user on Disco-Duo goes from 248 MB/s to 398 MB/s - clear_user on Disco-Duo goes from 328 MB/s to 1741 MB/s Because the setup cost is non negligible, this is worthwhile only if the amount of data to copy is large enough. The operation falls back to the standard implementation when the amount of data is below a certain threshold. This threshold was determined empirically, however some targets could benefit from a lower runtime determined value for optimal results eventually. In the copy_from_user() case, this technique does not provide any worthwhile performance gain due to the fact that any kind of read access allocates the cache and subsequent 32bit loads are just as fast as the equivalent 8-word LDM.

| * [ARM] allow for alternative __copy_to_user/__clear_user implementationsNicolas Pitre2009-05-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This allows for optional alternative implementations of __copy_to_user and __clear_user, with a possible runtime fallback to the standard version when the alternative provides no gain over that standard version. This is done by making the standard __copy_to_user into a weak alias for the symbol __copy_to_user_std. Same thing for __clear_user. Those two functions are particularly good candidates to have alternative implementations for, since they rely on the STRT instruction which has lower performances than STM instructions on some CPU cores such as the ARM1176 and Marvell Feroceon.

Since we no longer have 26-bit in this tree, we no longer need this layer, so eliminate it. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
* [ARM] Remove save_lr/restore_pc macrosRussell King2006-06-25
| | | | | | | As for RETINSTR/LOADREGS macros, these were for compatibility with 26-bit ARMs. No longer required, so remove them. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
* [ARM] Remove LOADREGS macroRussell King2006-06-25
| | | | | | | As for RETINSTR, LOADREGS is a left-over from the 26-bit days. Remove it. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
* [ARM] Remove RETINSTR macroRussell King2006-06-25
| | | | | | | | RETINSTR is a left-over from the days when we had 26-bit and 32-bit CPU support integrated into the same tree. Since this is no longer the case, we can now remove RETINSTR. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
