* MIPS: replace open-coded init_dspPaul Burton2014-01-241-2/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | There is already an init_dsp function which checks cpu_has_dsp & calls __init_dsp if it does. Make use of it instead of duplicating the same code.

* MIPS: Support for 64-bit FP with O32 binariesPaul Burton2014-01-131-3/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | CPUs implementing MIPS32 R2 may include a 64-bit FPU, just as MIPS64 CPUs do. In order to preserve backwards compatibility a 64-bit FPU will act like a 32-bit FPU (by accessing doubles from the least significant 32 bits of an even-odd pair of FP registers) when the Status.FR bit is zero, again just like a mips64 CPU. The standard O32 ABI is defined expecting a 32-bit FPU, however recent toolchains support use of a 64-bit FPU from an O32 MIPS32 executable. When an ELF executable is built to use a 64-bit FPU a new flag (EF_MIPS_FP64) is set in the ELF header. With this patch the kernel will check the EF_MIPS_FP64 flag when executing an O32 binary, and set Status.FR accordingly. The addition of O32 64-bit FP support lessens the opportunity for optimisation in the FPU emulator, so a CONFIG_MIPS_O32_FP64_SUPPORT Kconfig option is introduced to allow this support to be disabled for those that don't require it. Inspired by an earlier patch by Leonid Yegoshin, but implemented more cleanly & correctly.

* MIPS: Extract schedule_mfi info from __scheduleTony Wu2013-05-171-2/+32
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | schedule_mfi is supposed to be extracted from schedule(), and is used in thread_saved_pc and get_wchan. But, after optimization, schedule() is reduced to a sibling call to __schedule(), and no real frame info can be extracted. One solution is to compile schedule() with -fno-omit-frame-pointer and -fno-optimize-sibling-calls, but that will incur performance degradation. Another solution is to extract info from the real scheduler, __schedule, and this is the approache adopted here. This patch reads the __schedule address by either following the 'j' call in schedule if KALLSYMS is disabled or by using kallsyms_lookup_name to lookup __schedule if KALLSYMS is available, then, extracts schedule_mfi from __schedule frame info. This patch also fixes the "Can't analyze schedule() prologue" warning at boot time.

* MIPS: Fix sibling call handling in get_frame_infoTony Wu2013-05-171-2/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Given a function, get_frame_info() analyzes its instructions to figure out frame size and return address. get_frame_info() works as follows: 1. analyze up to 128 instructions if the function size is unknown 2. search for 'addiu/daddiu sp,sp,-immed' for frame size 3. search for 'sw ra,offset(sp)' for return address 4. end search when it sees jr/jal/jalr This leads to an issue when the given function is a sibling call, example shown as follows. 801ca110 <schedule>: 801ca110: 8f820000 lw v0,0(gp) 801ca114: 8c420000 lw v0,0(v0) 801ca118: 080726f0 j 801c9bc0 <__schedule> 801ca11c: 00000000 nop 801ca120 <io_schedule>: 801ca120: 27bdffe8 addiu sp,sp,-24 801ca124: 3c028022 lui v0,0x8022 801ca128: afbf0014 sw ra,20(sp) In this case, get_frame_info() cannot properly detect schedule's frame info, and eventually returns io_schedule's instead. This patch adds 'j' to the end search condition to workaround sibling call cases.

* nohz: Remove tick_nohz_idle_enter_norcu() / tick_nohz_idle_exit_norcu()Frederic Weisbecker2011-12-111-2/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Those two APIs were provided to optimize the calls of tick_nohz_idle_enter() and rcu_idle_enter() into a single irq disabled section. This way no interrupt happening in-between would needlessly process any RCU job. Now we are talking about an optimization for which benefits have yet to be measured. Let's start simple and completely decouple idle rcu and dyntick idle logics to simplify.

* nohz: Allow rcu extended quiescent state handling seperately from tick stopFrederic Weisbecker2011-12-111-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It is assumed that rcu won't be used once we switch to tickless mode and until we restart the tick. However this is not always true, as in x86-64 where we dereference the idle notifiers after the tick is stopped. To prepare for fixing this, add two new APIs: tick_nohz_idle_enter_norcu() and tick_nohz_idle_exit_norcu(). If no use of RCU is made in the idle loop between tick_nohz_enter_idle() and tick_nohz_exit_idle() calls, the arch must instead call the new *_norcu() version such that the arch doesn't need to call rcu_idle_enter() and rcu_idle_exit(). Otherwise the arch must call tick_nohz_enter_idle() and tick_nohz_exit_idle() and also call explicitly: - rcu_idle_enter() after its last use of RCU before the CPU is put to sleep. - rcu_idle_exit() before the first use of RCU after the CPU is woken up.

* nohz: Separate out irq exit and idle loop dyntick logicFrederic Weisbecker2011-12-111-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() function, which tries to delay the next timer tick as long as possible, can be called from two places: - From the idle loop to start the dytick idle mode - From interrupt exit if we have interrupted the dyntick idle mode, so that we reprogram the next tick event in case the irq changed some internal state that requires this action. There are only few minor differences between both that are handled by that function, driven by the ts->inidle cpu variable and the inidle parameter. The whole guarantees that we only update the dyntick mode on irq exit if we actually interrupted the dyntick idle mode, and that we enter in RCU extended quiescent state from idle loop entry only. Split this function into: - tick_nohz_idle_enter(), which sets ts->inidle to 1, enters dynticks idle mode unconditionally if it can, and enters into RCU extended quiescent state. - tick_nohz_irq_exit() which only updates the dynticks idle mode when ts->inidle is set (ie: if tick_nohz_idle_enter() has been called). To maintain symmetry, tick_nohz_restart_sched_tick() has been renamed into tick_nohz_idle_exit(). This simplifies the code and micro-optimize the irq exit path (no need for local_irq_save there). This also prepares for the split between dynticks and rcu extended quiescent state logics. We'll need this split to further fix illegal uses of RCU in extended quiescent states in the idle loop.

* MIPS: Trace: Don't trace irqsoff for the idle processWu Zhangjin2010-04-121-1/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Like x86 did in arch/x86/kernel/{process_32.c,process_64.c}, also don't trace irqsoff for idle. If there's no useful work to be done, we don't care about the irqsoff duration. If we trace the idle process, the max duration of irqsoff will be the idle time and make the irqsoff tracer useless.

* include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking ↵Tejun Heo2010-03-301-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* MIPS: Avoid clobbering struct pt_regs in kthreadsDavid Daney2009-08-031-1/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The resume() implementation octeon_switch.S examines the saved cp0_status register. We were clobbering the entire pt_regs structure in kernel threads leading to random crashes. When switching away from a kernel thread, the saved cp0_status is examined and if bit 30 is set it is cleared and the CP2 state saved into the pt_regs structure. Since the kernel thread stack overlaid the pt_regs structure this resulted in a corrupt stack. When the kthread with the corrupt stack was resumed, it could crash if it used any of the data in the stack that was clobbered. We fix it by moving the kernel thread stack down so it doesn't overlay pt_regs. Signed-off-by: David Daney <ddaney@caviumnetworks.com> Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org>
* MIPS: Add arch generic CPU hotplugRalf Baechle2009-06-241-1/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Each platform has to add support for CPU hotplugging itself by providing suitable definitions for the cpu_disable and cpu_die of the smp_ops methods and setting SYS_SUPPORTS_HOTPLUG_CPU. A platform should only set SYS_SUPPORTS_HOTPLUG_CPU once all it's smp_ops definitions have the necessary changes. This patch contains the changes to the dummy smp_ops definition for uni-processor systems. Parts of the code contributed by Cavium Inc. Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org>

* | nohz: prevent tick stop outside of the idle loopThomas Gleixner2008-07-181-1/+1
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Jack Ren and Eric Miao tracked down the following long standing problem in the NOHZ code: scheduler switch to idle task enable interrupts Window starts here ----> interrupt happens (does not set NEED_RESCHED) irq_exit() stops the tick ----> interrupt happens (does set NEED_RESCHED) return from schedule() cpu_idle(): preempt_disable(); Window ends here The interrupts can happen at any point inside the race window. The first interrupt stops the tick, the second one causes the scheduler to rerun and switch away from idle again and we end up with the tick disabled. The fact that it needs two interrupts where the first one does not set NEED_RESCHED and the second one does made the bug obscure and extremly hard to reproduce and analyse. Kudos to Jack and Eric. Solution: Limit the NOHZ functionality to the idle loop to make sure that we can not run into such a situation ever again. cpu_idle() { preempt_disable(); while(1) { tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick(1); <- tell NOHZ code that we are in the idle loop while (!need_resched()) halt(); tick_nohz_restart_sched_tick(); <- disables NOHZ mode preempt_enable_no_resched(); schedule(); preempt_disable(); } } In hindsight we should have done this forever, but ... /me grabs a large brown paperbag.
