MIPS: Loongson-3: Introduce CONFIG_LOONGSON3_ENHANCEMENT

2016-05-13T12:02:15+00:00

New Loongson 3 CPU (since Loongson-3A R2, as opposed to Loongson-3A R1, Loongson-3B R1 and Loongson-3B R2) has many enhancements, such as FTLB, L1-VCache, EI/DI/Wait/Prefetch instruction, DSP/DSPv2 ASE, User Local register, Read-Inhibit/Execute-Inhibit, SFB (Store Fill Buffer), Fast TLB refill support, etc. This patch introduce a config option, CONFIG_LOONGSON3_ENHANCEMENT, to enable those enhancements which are not probed at run time. If you want a generic kernel to run on all Loongson 3 machines, please say 'N' here. If you want a high-performance kernel to run on new Loongson 3 machines only, please say 'Y' here. Some additional explanations: 1) SFB locates between core and L1 cache, it causes memory access out of order, so writel/outl (and other similar functions) need a I/O reorder barrier. 2) Loongson 3 has a bug that di instruction can not save the irqflag, so arch_local_irq_save() is modified. Since CPU_MIPSR2 is selected by CONFIG_LOONGSON3_ENHANCEMENT, generic kernel doesn't use ei/di at all. 3) CPU_HAS_PREFETCH is selected by CONFIG_LOONGSON3_ENHANCEMENT, so MIPS_CPU_PREFETCH (used by uasm) probing is also put in this patch.

MIPS: Cleanup the unused __arch_local_irq_restore() function

2016-01-22T00:58:49+00:00

In history, __arch_local_irq_restore() is only used by SMTC. However, SMTC support has been removed since 3.16, this patch remove the unused function.

MIPS/IRQCHIP: Move irq_chip from arch/mips to drivers/irqchip.

MIPS: MT: Remove SMTC support

2014-05-23T22:07:01+00:00

Nobody is maintaining SMTC anymore and there also seems to be no userbase. Which is a pity - the SMTC technology primarily developed by Kevin D. Kissell is an ingenious demonstration for the MT ASE's power and elegance. Based on Markos Chandras patch https://patchwork.linux-mips.org/patch/6719/ which while very similar did no longer apply cleanly when I tried to merge it plus some additional post-SMTC cleanup - SMTC was a feature as tricky to remove as it was to merge once upon a time.

MIPS: Make irqflags.h functions preempt-safe for non-mipsr2 cpus

2012-11-09T09:59:21+00:00

For non MIPSr2 processors, such as the BMIPS 5000, calls to arch_local_irq_disable() and others may be preempted, and in doing so a stale value may be restored to c0_status. This fix disables preemption for such processors prior to the call and enables it after the call. Those functions that needed this fix have been "outlined" to mips-atomic.c, as they are no longer good candidates for inlining. This bug was observed in a BMIPS 5000, occuring once every few hours in a continuous reboot test. It was traced to the write_lock_irq() function which was being invoked in release_task() in exit.c. By placing a number of "nops" inbetween the mfc0/mtc0 pair in arch_local_irq_disable(), which is called by write_lock_irq(), we were able to greatly increase the occurance of this bug. Similarly, the application of this commit silenced the bug.

Fix IRQ flag handling naming

2010-10-07T13:08:55+00:00

Fix the IRQ flag handling naming. In linux/irqflags.h under one configuration, it maps: local_irq_enable() -> raw_local_irq_enable() local_irq_disable() -> raw_local_irq_disable() local_irq_save() -> raw_local_irq_save() ... and under the other configuration, it maps: raw_local_irq_enable() -> local_irq_enable() raw_local_irq_disable() -> local_irq_disable() raw_local_irq_save() -> local_irq_save() ... This is quite confusing. There should be one set of names expected of the arch, and this should be wrapped to give another set of names that are expected by users of this facility. Change this to have the arch provide: flags = arch_local_save_flags() flags = arch_local_irq_save() arch_local_irq_restore(flags) arch_local_irq_disable() arch_local_irq_enable() arch_irqs_disabled_flags(flags) arch_irqs_disabled() arch_safe_halt() Then linux/irqflags.h wraps these to provide: raw_local_save_flags(flags) raw_local_irq_save(flags) raw_local_irq_restore(flags) raw_local_irq_disable() raw_local_irq_enable() raw_irqs_disabled_flags(flags) raw_irqs_disabled() raw_safe_halt() with type checking on the flags 'arguments', and then wraps those to provide: local_save_flags(flags) local_irq_save(flags) local_irq_restore(flags) local_irq_disable() local_irq_enable() irqs_disabled_flags(flags) irqs_disabled() safe_halt() with tracing included if enabled. The arch functions can now all be inline functions rather than some of them having to be macros.
