ARC: __switch_to: move ksp to thread_info from thread_struct

2023-08-18T03:31:59+00:00

task's arch specific bits are carried in 2 places - embedded thread_struct in task_struct - associated thread_info (hoisted in task's stack page) and syntactically: (thread_info *)(task_struct->stack) ksp (dynamic kernel stack top) currently lives in thread_struct but given its deep location in task struct likely to cache miss when accessed from __switch_to(). Moving it to thread_info would be more efficient given proximity to frequently accessed items such as preempt_count thus very likely to be in cache, specially in schedular code. Note however that currently tsk.thread.ksp takes 1 memory access (off of tsk pointer) while new code tsk->stack.ksp would take 2, but likely to be in cache. Moreover if task is current the 2nd reference can be elided and instead derived from SP as (SP & ~(THREAD_SIZE - 1)) All of this also makes __switch_to() code simpler and we can see the 2 ways of retirving ksp (descrobed above) in new code.

uaccess: remove CONFIG_SET_FS

2022-02-25T08:36:06+00:00

There are no remaining callers of set_fs(), so CONFIG_SET_FS can be removed globally, along with the thread_info field and any references to it. This turns access_ok() into a cheaper check against TASK_SIZE_MAX. As CONFIG_SET_FS is now gone, drop all remaining references to set_fs()/get_fs(), mm_segment_t, user_addr_max() and uaccess_kernel(). Acked-by: Sam Ravnborg # for sparc32 changes Acked-by: "Eric W.

Construct init thread stack in the linker script rather than by union

2018-01-09T23:21:02+00:00

Construct the init thread stack in the linker script rather than doing it by means of a union so that ia64's init_task.c can be got rid of. The following symbols are then made available from INIT_TASK_DATA() linker script macro: init_thread_union init_stack INIT_TASK_DATA() also expands the region to THREAD_SIZE to accommodate the size of the init stack. init_thread_union is given its own section so that it can be placed into the stack space in the right order. I'm assuming that the ia64 ordering is correct and that the task_struct is first and the thread_info second.
