2017-06-30tile: remove unneeded extra-y in MakefileMasahiro Yamada1-1/+0
This extra-y is unneeded because vdso.lds is generated according to the dependency. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@socionext.com>
2017-06-30tile: thin archives fix linkingNicholas Piggin1-7/+7
The VDSO symbols can't be linked into built-in.o when building with thin archives, so change this to linking a new object file that is included into the built-in.o.

2017-06-30tile: fix dependency and .*.cmd inclusion for incremental buildMasahiro Yamada1-6/+5
Build targets using if_changed(_rule) must depend on FORCE so that they are evaluated every time. In order to include .*.cmd files correctly, build targets added to "targets" must not be prefixed with $(obj)/ because it is done by scripts/Makefile.lib .

2015-08-07tile/vdso: emit a GNU hash as wellChris Metcalf1-2/+2
In principle, including the GNU hash can allow libc to avoid calculating SysV hashes at all. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@ezchip.com>
2015-06-04tile: vdso: use raw_read_seqcount_begin() in vdsoChris Metcalf1-5/+5
Previously we were using read_seqcount_begin(), which works fine until lockdep is enabled in the kernel, at which point lockdep locking shows up in the vdso and userspace will take a GPV accessing a kernel-only SPR when calling gettimeofday() etc. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@ezchip.com>
2014-10-02tile: add clock_gettime support to vDSOChris Metcalf2-19/+128
This change adds support for clock_gettime with CLOCK_REALTIME and CLOCK_MONOTONIC using vDSO. It also updates the vdso struct nomenclature used for the clocks to match the x86 code to keep it easier to update going forward. We also support the *_COARSE clockid_t, for apps that want speed but aren't concerned about fine-grained timestamps; this saves about 20 cycles per call (see http://lwn.net/Articles/342018/).

2014-10-02tile: switch to using seqlocks for the vDSO time codeChris Metcalf1-32/+15

2014-07-23tile: Convert VDSO timekeeping to the precise mechanismThomas Gleixner1-3/+4
The code was only halfarsed converted to the new VSDO update mechanism and still uses the inaccurate base value which lacks the fractional part of xtime_nsec. Fix it up. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Signed-off-by: John Stultz <john.stultz@linaro.org>
2014-04-04tile: Fix vDSO compilation issue with allyesconfigKerry Sheh1-1/+1
make allyesconfig give the following build error on tile: tilegx-linux-gcc: error: arch/tile/kernel/vdso/vgettimeofday32.o: No such file or directory tilegx-linux-objcopy: 'arch/tile/kernel/vdso/vdso32.so.dbg': No such file or directory In case with CONFIG_MODVERSIONS, cmd_cc_o_c generate .tmp_<file>.o from <file>.c only. Fix it by execute rule_cc_o_c instead. Reported-by: Fengguang Wu <fengguang.wu@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Kerry Sheh <ksheh@tilera.com> Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>
2013-08-14tile: implement gettimeofday() via vDSOChris Metcalf6-0/+398
This change creates the framework for vDSO calls, makes the existing rt_sigreturn() mechanism use it, and adds a fast gettimeofday(). Now that we need to expose the vDSO address to userspace, we add AT_SYSINFO_EHDR to the set of aux entries provided to userspace. (You can disable any extra vDSO support by booting with vdso=0, but the rt_sigreturn vDSO page will still be provided.) Note that glibc has supported the tile vDSO since release 2.17.
