* gru: fix potential use-after-free when purging GRU tlbsJack Steiner2009-06-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fix potential SGI GRU bug that could cause a use-after-free. If one thread in a task is flushing the GRU and another thread destroys the GRU context, there is the potential to access a table after it has been freed. Copy the gms pointer to a local variable before unlocking the gts table. Note that no refcnt is needed for the gms - the reference is held indirectly by the task's mm_struct.

* gru: add user request to specify gru sliceJack Steiner2009-06-18

* gru: generic infrastructure for context optionsJack Steiner2009-06-18
| | | | | | | | | | | Change the user GRU request for specifying the "task_slice" option to use a generic infrastructure that can be expanded in the future to include additional context options. No new capabilities are added with this patch.

* gru: collect per-context user statisticsJack Steiner2009-06-18
| | | | | | | | | | Collect GRU statistics for each user GRU context. Statistics are kept for TLB misses & content resource contention. Add user request for retrieving the statistics.

* gru: fix cache coherency issues with instruction retryJack Steiner2009-06-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Fix two problems related to GRU instruction failures. Cache coherency is not maintained for CBEs except when loading or unloading contexts. When reading a CBE to extract error information, the CBE must first be flushed from the cache. The function that reads kerrnel CBEs was reading the wrong CBE.

* gru: update to rev 0.9 of gru specJack Steiner2009-06-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | Update GRU driver to the latest version of the GRU spec. This consists of minor updates: - changes & additions to error status bits - new restriction on handling of TLB misses while in FMM mode - new field (not used by software) in TFH Signed-off-by: Jack Steiner <steiner@sgi.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
* gru: support for asynchronous gru instructionsJack Steiner2009-06-18
| | | | | | | | | | Add support for asynchronous GRU instructions. Currently, asynchronous instructions are supported only for GRU instructions issued by the kernel.

* gru: support instruction completion interruptsJack Steiner2009-06-18
| | | | | | | | | | | Add support for interrupts generated by GRU instruction completion. Previously, the only interrupts were for TLB misses. The hardware also supports interrupts on instruction completion. This will be supported for instructions issued by the kernel.

* gru: bug fixes for GRU exception handlingJack Steiner2009-06-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Bug fixes for GRU exception handling. Additional fields from the CBR must be returned to the user to allow the user to correctly diagnose GRU exceptions. Handle endcase in TFH TLB miss handling. Verify that TFH actually indicates a pending exception.
