* [SPARC64]: store-init needs trailing membar.David S. Miller2007-03-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The manual says that it is required and we actually have crash reports where loads see stale data due to not having membars here. In one case the networking does: memset(skb, 0, offsetof(struct sk_buff, truesize)); and then some code later checks skb->nohdr for zero, but it's still the value that was there before the memset(). Note that arch/sparc64/lib/xor.S already got this right. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

* [SPARC64]: Fix missing fold at end of checksums.David S. Miller2006-06-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Both csum_partial() and the csum_partial_copy*() family of routines forget to do a final fold on the computed checksum value on sparc64. So do the standard Sparc "add + set condition codes, add carry" sequence, then make sure the high 32-bits of the return value are clear. Based upon some excellent detective work and debugging done by Richard Braun and Samuel Thibault. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

* [SPARC64]: Optimized TSB table initialization.David S. Miller2006-03-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | We only need to write an invalid tag every 16 bytes, so taking advantage of this can save many instructions compared to the simple memset() call we make now. A prefetching implementation is implemented for sun4u and a block-init store version if implemented for Niagara. The next trick is to be able to perform an init and a copy_tsb() in parallel when growing a TSB table. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

* [SPARC64]: Fix some Niagara memcpy() bugs.David S. Miller2006-03-20
| | | | | | | | | | | We need to restore the %asi register properly. For the kernel this means get_fs(), for user this means ASI_PNF. Also, NGcopy_to_user.S was including U3memcpy.S instead of NGmemcpy.S, oops :-) Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

* [SPARC64]: Fix bogus flush instruction usage.David S. Miller2006-03-20
| | | | | | | | | | Some of the trap code was still assuming that alternate global %g6 was hard coded with current_thread_info(). Let's just consistently flush at KERNBASE when we need a pipeline synchronization. That's locked into the TLB and will always work. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
* [SPARC64]: Mark __ex_table section correctly.David S. Miller2006-03-05
| | | | | | | | | | We must use the "a" (allocate) attribute every time we emit an entry into the __ex_table section. For consistency, use "a" instead of #alloc which is some Solaris compat cruft GNU as provides on Sparc. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
* [SPARC64]: Fix userland FPU state corruption.David S. Miller2005-10-07

* [SPARC64]: Simplify user fault fixup handling.David S. Miller2005-09-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Instead of doing byte-at-a-time user accesses to figure out where the fault occurred, read the saved fault_address from the current thread structure. For the sake of defensive programming, if the fault_address does not fall into the user buffer range, simply assume the whole area faulted. This will cause the fixup for copy_from_user() to clear the entire kernel side buffer. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
* [SPARC64]: Fix fault handling in unaligned trap handler.David S. Miller2005-09-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | We were not calling kernel_mna_trap_fault() correctly. Instead of being fancy, just return 0 vs. -EFAULT from the assembler stubs, and handle that return value as appropriate. Create an "__retl_efault" stub for assembler exception table entries and use it where possible. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
* [LIB]: Consolidate _atomic_dec_and_lock()David S. Miller2005-09-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | Several implementations were essentialy a common piece of C code using the cmpxchg() macro. Put the implementation in one spot that everyone can share, and convert sparc64 over to using this. Alpha is the lone arch-specific implementation, which codes up a special fast path for the common case in order to avoid GP reloading which a pure C version would require. Signed-off-by: David S.

* [PATCH] spinlock consolidationIngo Molnar2005-09-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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 * initializers * * linux/spinlock_types.h: * defines the generic type and initializers * * asm/spinlock.h: contains the __raw_spin_*()/etc. lowlevel * 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:) * * linux/spinlock_api_up.h: * builds the _spin_*() APIs. * * linux/spinlock.h: builds the final spin_*() APIs. */ All SMP and UP architectures are converted by this patch. 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. From: Grant Grundler <grundler@parisc-linux.org> 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]: Inline membar()'s again.David S. Miller2005-09-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since GCC has to emit a call and a delay slot to the out-of-line "membar" routines in arch/sparc64/lib/mb.S it is much better to just do the necessary predicted branch inline instead as: ba,pt %xcc, 1f membar #whatever 1: instead of the current: call membar_foo dslot because this way GCC is not required to allocate a stack frame if the function can be a leaf function. This also makes this bug fix easier to backport to 2.4.x Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

* [SPARC64]: More fully work around Spitfire Errata 51.David S. Miller2005-08-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | It appears that a memory barrier soon after a mispredicted branch, not just in the delay slot, can cause the hang condition of this cpu errata. So move them out-of-line, and explicitly put them into a "branch always, predict taken" delay slot which should fully kill this problem. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
* [SPARC64]: Make debugging spinlocks usable again.David S. Miller2005-08-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | When the spinlock routines were moved out of line into kernel/spinlock.c this made it so that the debugging spinlocks record lock acquisition program counts in the kernel/spinlock.c functions not in their callers. This makes the debugging info kind of useless. So record the correct caller's program counter and now this feature is useful once more. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
* [SPARC64]: Avoid membar instructions in delay slots.David S. Miller2005-06-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
* [PATCH] smp_processor_id() cleanupIngo Molnar2005-06-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch implements a number of smp_processor_id() cleanup ideas that Arjan van de Ven and I came up with. The previous __smp_processor_id/_smp_processor_id/smp_processor_id API spaghetti was hard to follow both on the implementational and on the usage side. Some of the complexity arose from picking wrong names, some of the complexity comes from the fact that not all architectures defined __smp_processor_id. In the new code, there are two externally visible symbols: - smp_processor_id(): debug variant. - raw_smp_processor_id(): nondebug variant. Replaces all existing uses of _smp_processor_id() and __smp_processor_id(). Defined by every SMP architecture in include/asm-*/smp.h. There is one new internal symbol, dependent on DEBUG_PREEMPT: - debug_smp_processor_id(): internal debug variant, mapped to smp_processor_id(). Also, i moved debug_smp_processor_id() from lib/kernel_lock.c into a new lib/smp_processor_id.c file. All related comments got updated and/or clarified. I have build/boot tested the following 8 .config combinations on x86: {SMP,UP} x {PREEMPT,!PREEMPT} x {DEBUG_PREEMPT,!DEBUG_PREEMPT} I have also build/boot tested x64 on UP/PREEMPT/DEBUG_PREEMPT. (Other architectures are untested, but should work just fine.)

* Linux-2.6.12-rc2v2.6.12-rc2Linus Torvalds2005-04-16
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!
