2012-04-02arch/tile: avoid accidentally unmasking NMI-type interrupt accidentallyChris Metcalf
The return path as we reload registers and core state requires that r30 hold a boolean indicating whether we are returning from an NMI, but in a couple of cases we weren't setting this properly, with the result that we could accidentally unmask the NMI interrupt(s), which could cause confusion. Now we set r30 in every place where we jump into the interrupt return path. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>
2012-04-02arch/tile: remove bogus performance optimizationChris Metcalf
We were re-homing the initial task's kernel stack on the boot cpu, but in fact it's better to let it stay globally homed, since that task isn't bound to the boot cpu anyway. This is more of a general cleanup than an actual performance optimization, but it removes code, which is a good thing. :-) Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>
2012-04-02arch/tile: return SIGBUS for addresses that are unaligned AND invalidChris Metcalf
Previously we were returning SIGSEGV in this case. It seems cleaner to return SIGBUS since the hardware figures out alignment traps before TLB violations, so SIGBUS is the "more correct" signal. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>
2012-04-02arch/tile: fix finv_buffer_remote() for tilegxChris Metcalf
There were some correctness issues with this code that are now fixed with this change. The change is likely less performant than it could be, but it should no longer be vulnerable to any races with memory operations on the memory network while invalidating a range of memory. This code is run infrequently so performance isn't critical, but correctness definitely is. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>
2012-04-02arch/tile: use atomic exchange in arch_write_unlock()Chris Metcalf
This idiom is used elsewhere when we do an unlock by writing a zero, but I missed it here. Using an atomic operation avoids waiting on the write buffer for the unlocking write to be sent to the home cache. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>
2012-04-02arch/tile: stop mentioning the "kvm" subdirectoryChris Metcalf
It causes "make clean" to fail, for example. Once we have KVM support complete, we'll reinstate the subdir reference. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>
2012-04-02arch/tile: export the page_home() function.Chris Metcalf
This avois a bug in modules trying to use the function. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>
2012-04-02arch/tile: fix pointer cast in cacheflush.cChris Metcalf
Pragmatically it couldn't be wrong to cast pointers to long to compare them (since all kernel addresses are in the top half of VA space), but it's more correct to cast to unsigned long. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>
2012-04-02arch/tile: fix single-stepping over swint1 instructions on tilegxChris Metcalf
If we are single-stepping and make a syscall, we call ptrace_notify() explicitly on the return path back to user space, since we are returning to a pc value set artificially to the next instruction, and otherwise we won't register that we stepped over the syscall instruction (swint1). Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>
2012-04-02arch/tile: implement panic_smp_self_stop()Chris Metcalf
This allows the later-panicking tiles to wait in a lower power state until they get interrupted with an smp_send_stop(). Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>
2012-04-02arch/tile: add "nop" after "nap" to help GX idle power drawChris Metcalf
This avoids the hardware istream prefetcher doing unnecessary work. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>
2012-04-02arch/tile: use proper memparse() for "maxmem" optionsChris Metcalf
This is more standard and avoids having to remember what units the options actually take. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>
2012-04-02arch/tile: fix up locking in pgtable.c slightlyChris Metcalf
We should be holding the init_mm.page_table_lock in shatter_huge_page() since we are modifying the kernel page tables. Then, only if we are walking the other root page tables to update them, do we want to take the pgd_lock. Add a comment about taking the pgd_lock that we always do it with interrupts disabled and therefore are not at risk from the tlbflush IPI deadlock as is seen on x86. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>
2012-04-02arch/tile: don't leak kernel memory when we unload modulesChris Metcalf

2012-04-02arch/tile: fix bug in delay_backoff()Chris Metcalf
We were carefully computing a value to use for the number of loops to spin for, and then ignoring it. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>
2012-04-02arch/tile: fix bug in loading kernels larger than 16 MBChris Metcalf
Previously we only handled kernels up to a single huge page in size. Now we create additional PTEs appropriately. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>
2012-04-02arch/tile: don't enable irqs unconditionally in page fault handlerChris Metcalf
If we took a page fault while we had interrupts disabled, we shouldn't enable them in the page fault handler. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>
2012-04-02arch/tile: don't set the homecache of a PTE unless appropriateChris Metcalf
We make sure not to try to set the home for an MMIO PTE (on tilegx) or a PTE that isn't referencing memory managed by Linux. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>
2012-04-02arch/tile: don't wait for migrating PTEs in an NMI handlerChris Metcalf
Doing so raises the possibility of self-deadlock if we are waiting for a backtrace for an oprofile or perf interrupt while we are in the middle of migrating our own stack page. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>

2012-04-02arch/tile: fix up some minor trap handling issuesChris Metcalf
We now respond to MEM_ERROR traps (e.g. an atomic instruction to non-cacheable memory) with a SIGBUS. We also no longer generate a console crash message if a user process die due to a SIGTRAP. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>
2012-04-02arch/tile: work around a hardware issue with the return-address stackChris Metcalf
In certain circumstances we need to do a bunch of jump-and-link instructions to fill the hardware return-address stack with nonzero values. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>
2012-04-02arch/tile: various bugs in stack backtracerChris Metcalf
Fix a long-standing bug in the stack backtracer where we would print garbage to the console instead of kernel function names, if the kernel wasn't built with symbol support (e.g. mboot). Make sure to tag every line of userspace backtrace output if we actually have the mmap_sem, since that way if there's no tag, we know that it's because we couldn't trylock the semaphore. Stop doing a TLB flush and examining page tables during backtrace. Instead, just trust that __copy_from_user_inatomic() will properly fault and return a failure, which it should do in all cases. Fix a latent bug where the backtracer would directly examine a signal context in user space, rather than copying it safely to kernel memory first. This meant that a race with another thread could potentially have caused a kernel panic. Guard against unaligned sp when trying to restart backtrace at an interrupt or signal handler point in the kernel backtracer. Report kernel symbolic information for the call instruction rather than for the following instruction. We still report the actual numeric address corresponding to the instruction after the call, for the sake of consistency with the normal expectations for stack backtracers. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>
2012-04-02arch/tile: make sure to build memcpy_user_64 without frame pointerChris Metcalf
Add a comment explaining why this is important, and add a CFLAGS_REMOVE clause to the Makefile to make sure it happens. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>
2012-04-02arch/tile: avoid false corrupt frame warning in early bootChris Metcalf
With lockstat we can end up trying to get a backtrace before "high_memory" is initialized, so don't worry about range testing if it is zero. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>
2012-04-02arch/tile: use 0 for IRQ_RESCHEDULE instead of 1Chris Metcalf
This avoids assigning IRQ 0 to PCI devices, because we've seen that doesn't always work well. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/amit/virtio-console Pull virtio S3 support patches from Amit Shah: "Turns out S3 is not different from S4 for virtio devices: the device is assumed to be reset, so the host and guest state are to be assumed to be out of sync upon resume. We handle the S4 case with exactly the same scenario, so just point the suspend/resume routines to the freeze/restore ones. Once that is done, we also use the PM API's macro to initialise the sleep functions. A couple of cleanups are included: there's no need for special thaw processing in the balloon driver, so that's addressed in patches 1 and 2. Testing: both S3 and S4 support have been tested using these patches using a similar method used earlier during S4 patch development: a guest is started with virtio-blk as the only disk, a virtio network card, a virtio-serial port and a virtio balloon device. Ping from guest to host, dd /dev/zero to a file on the disk, and IO from the host on the virtio-serial port, all at once, while exercising S4 and S3 (separately) were tested. They all continue to work fine after resume. virtio balloon values too were tested by inflating and deflating the balloon."
