2012-05-27Merge branch 'generic-string-functions'Linus Torvalds17-440/+46
This makes <asm/word-at-a-time.h> actually live up to its promise of allowing architectures to help tune the string functions that do their work a word at a time. David had already taken the x86 strncpy_from_user() function, modified it to work on sparc, and then done the extra work to make it generically useful. This then expands on that work by making x86 use that generic version, completing the circle. But more importantly, it fixes up the word-at-a-time interfaces so that it's now easy to also support things like strnlen_user(), and pretty much most random string functions. David reports that it all works fine on sparc, and Jonas Bonn reported that an earlier version of this worked on OpenRISC too. It's pretty easy for architectures to add support for this and just replace their private versions with the generic code. * generic-string-functions: sparc: use the new generic strnlen_user() function x86: use the new generic strnlen_user() function lib: add generic strnlen_user() function word-at-a-time: make the interfaces truly generic x86: use generic strncpy_from_user routine

2012-05-26word-at-a-time: make the interfaces truly genericLinus Torvalds3-3/+31
This changes the interfaces in <asm/word-at-a-time.h> to be a bit more complicated, but a lot more generic. In particular, it allows us to really do the operations efficiently on both little-endian and big-endian machines, pretty much regardless of machine details. For example, if you can rely on a fast population count instruction on your architecture, this will allow you to make your optimized <asm/word-at-a-time.h> file with that. NOTE! The "generic" version in include/asm-generic/word-at-a-time.h is not truly generic, it actually only works on big-endian. Why? Because on little-endian the generic algorithms are wasteful, since you can inevitably do better. The x86 implementation is an example of that. (The only truly non-generic part of the asm-generic implementation is the "find_zero()" function, and you could make a little-endian version of it. And if the Kbuild infrastructure allowed us to pick a particular header file, that would be lovely) The <asm/word-at-a-time.h> functions are as follows: - WORD_AT_A_TIME_CONSTANTS: specific constants that the algorithm uses. - has_zero(): take a word, and determine if it has a zero byte in it. It gets the word, the pointer to the constant pool, and a pointer to an intermediate "data" field it can set. This is the "quick-and-dirty" zero tester: it's what is run inside the hot loops. - "prep_zero_mask()": take the word, the data that has_zero() produced, and the constant pool, and generate an *exact* mask of which byte had the first zero. This is run directly *outside* the loop, and allows the "has_zero()" function to answer the "is there a zero byte" question without necessarily getting exactly *which* byte is the first one to contain a zero. If you do multiple byte lookups concurrently (eg "hash_name()", which looks for both NUL and '/' bytes), after you've done the prep_zero_mask() phase, the result of those can be or'ed together to get the "either or" case. - The result from "prep_zero_mask()" can then be fed into "find_zero()" (to find the byte offset of the first byte that was zero) or into "zero_bytemask()" (to find the bytemask of the bytes preceding the zero byte). The existence of zero_bytemask() is optional, and is not necessary for the normal string routines. But dentry name hashing needs it, so if you enable DENTRY_WORD_AT_A_TIME you need to expose it. This changes the generic strncpy_from_user() function and the dentry hashing functions to use these modified word-at-a-time interfaces. This gets us back to the optimized state of the x86 strncpy that we lost in the previous commit when moving over to the generic version. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2012-05-26x86: use generic strncpy_from_user routineLinus Torvalds3-97/+2
The generic strncpy_from_user() is not really optimal, since it is designed to work on both little-endian and big-endian. And on little-endian you can simplify much of the logic to find the first zero byte, since little-endian arithmetic doesn't have to worry about the carry bit propagating into earlier bytes (only later bytes, which we don't care about). But I have patches to make the generic routines use the architecture- specific <asm/word-at-a-time.h> infrastructure, so that we can regain the little-endian optimizations. But before we do that, switch over to the generic routines to make the patches each do just one well-defined thing. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2012-05-25arch/tile: fix hardwall for tilegx and generalize for idn and ipiChris Metcalf8-280/+636
The hardwall drain code was not properly implemented for tilegx, just tilepro, so you couldn't reliably restart an application that made use of the udn. In addition, the code was only applicable to the udn (user dynamic network). On tilegx there is a second user network that is available (the "idn"), and there is support for having I/O shims deliver user-level interrupts to applications ("ipi") which functions in a very similar way to the inter-core permissions used for udn/idn. So this change also generalizes the code from supporting just the udn to supports udn/idn/ipi on tilegx. By default we now use /dev/hardwall/{udn,idn,ipi} with separate minor numbers for the three devices. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>
2012-05-25arch/tile: support multiple huge page sizes dynamicallyChris Metcalf15-158/+456
This change adds support for a new "super" bit in the PTE, using the new arch_make_huge_pte() method. The Tilera hypervisor sees the bit set at a given level of the page table and gangs together 4, 16, or 64 consecutive pages from that level of the hierarchy to create a larger TLB entry. One extra "super" page size can be specified at each of the three levels of the page table hierarchy on tilegx, using the "hugepagesz" argument on the boot command line. A new hypervisor API is added to allow Linux to tell the hypervisor how many PTEs to gang together at each level of the page table. To allow pre-allocating huge pages larger than the buddy allocator can handle, this change modifies the Tilera bootmem support to put all of memory on tilegx platforms into bootmem. As part of this change I eliminate the vestigial CONFIG_HIGHPTE support, which never worked anyway, and eliminate the hv_page_size() API in favor of the standard vma_kernel_pagesize() API.

We already had a syscall that did some dcache flushing, but it was not used in practice. Make it MIPS compatible instead so it can do both the DCACHE and ICACHE actions. We have code that wants to be able to use the ICACHE flush mode from userspace so this change enables that. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>
2012-05-25arch/tile: Allow tilegx to build with either 16K or 64K page sizeChris Metcalf20-197/+345
This change introduces new flags for the hv_install_context() API that passes a page table pointer to the hypervisor. Clients can explicitly request 4K, 16K, or 64K small pages when they install a new context. In practice, the page size is fixed at kernel compile time and the same size is always requested every time a new page table is installed. The <hv/hypervisor.h> header changes so that it provides more abstract macros for managing "page" things like PFNs and page tables. For example there is now a HV_DEFAULT_PAGE_SIZE_SMALL instead of the old HV_PAGE_SIZE_SMALL. The various PFN routines have been eliminated and only PA- or PTFN-based ones remain (since PTFNs are always expressed in fixed 2KB "page" size). The page-table management macros are renamed with a leading underscore and take page-size arguments with the presumption that clients will use those macros in some single place to provide the "real" macros they will use themselves. I happened to notice the old hv_set_caching() API was totally broken (it assumed 4KB pages) so I changed it so it would nominally work correctly with other page sizes. Tag modules with the page size so you can't load a module built with a conflicting page size. (And add a test for SMP while we're at it.) Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>
2012-05-25arch/tile: optimize get_user/put_user and friendsChris Metcalf8-315/+241
Use direct load/store for the get_user/put_user. Previously, we would call out to a helper routine that would do the appropriate thing and then return, handling the possible exception internally. Now we inline the load or store, along with a "we succeeded" indication in a register; if the load or store faults, we write a "we failed" indication into the same register and then return to the following instruction. This is more efficient and gives us more compact code, as well as being more in line with what other architectures do. The special futex assembly source file for TILE-Gx also disappears in this change; we just use the same inlining idiom there as well, putting the appropriate atomic operations directly into futex_atomic_op_inuser() (and thus into the FUTEX_WAIT function). The underlying atomic copy_from_user, copy_to_user functions were renamed using the (cryptic) x86 convention as copy_from_user_ll and copy_to_user_ll.

2012-05-25arch/tile: allow building Linux with transparent huge pages enabledChris Metcalf4-48/+107
The change adds some infrastructure for managing tile pmd's more generally, using pte_pmd() and pmd_pte() methods to translate pmd values to and from ptes, since on TILEPro a pmd is really just a nested structure holding a pgd (aka pte). Several existing pmd methods are moved into this framework, and a whole raft of additional pmd accessors are defined that are used by the transparent hugepage framework. The tile PTE now has a "client2" bit. The bit is used to indicate a transparent huge page is in the process of being split into subpages. This change also fixes a generic bug where the return value of the generic pmdp_splitting_flush() was incorrect. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>
2012-05-25arch/tile: use interrupt critical sections lessChris Metcalf7-99/+96
In general we want to avoid ever touching memory while within an interrupt critical section, since the page fault path goes through a different path from the hypervisor when in an interrupt critical section, and we carefully decided with tilegx that we didn't need to support this path in the kernel. (On tilepro we did implement that path as part of supporting atomic instructions in software.) In practice we always need to touch the kernel stack, since that's where we store the interrupt state before releasing the critical section, but this change cleans up a few things. The IRQ_ENABLE macro is split up so that when we want to enable interrupts in a deferred way (e.g. for cpu_idle or for interrupt return) we can read the per-cpu enable mask before entering the critical section. The cache-migration code is changed to use interrupt masking instead of interrupt critical sections. And, the interrupt-entry code is changed so that we defer loading "tp" from per-cpu data until after we have released the interrupt critical section.

git://git.linaro.org/people/mszyprowski/linux-dma-mapping Pull CMA and ARM DMA-mapping updates from Marek Szyprowski: "These patches contain two major updates for DMA mapping subsystem (mainly for ARM architecture). First one is Contiguous Memory Allocator (CMA) which makes it possible for device drivers to allocate big contiguous chunks of memory after the system has booted. The main difference from the similar frameworks is the fact that CMA allows to transparently reuse the memory region reserved for the big chunk allocation as a system memory, so no memory is wasted when no big chunk is allocated. Once the alloc request is issued, the framework migrates system pages to create space for the required big chunk of physically contiguous memory. For more information one can refer to nice LWN articles: - 'A reworked contiguous memory allocator': http://lwn.net/Articles/447405/ - 'CMA and ARM': http://lwn.net/Articles/450286/ - 'A deep dive into CMA': http://lwn.net/Articles/486301/ - and the following thread with the patches and links to all previous versions: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/4/3/204 The main client for this new framework is ARM DMA-mapping subsystem. The second part provides a complete redesign in ARM DMA-mapping subsystem. The core implementation has been changed to use common struct dma_map_ops based infrastructure with the recent updates for new dma attributes merged in v3.4-rc2. This allows to use more than one implementation of dma-mapping calls and change/select them on the struct device basis. The first client of this new infractructure is dmabounce implementation which has been completely cut out of the core, common code. The last patch of this redesign update introduces a new, experimental implementation of dma-mapping calls on top of generic IOMMU framework. This lets ARM sub-platform to transparently use IOMMU for DMA-mapping calls if one provides required IOMMU hardware. For more information please refer to the following thread: http://www.spinics.net/lists/arm-kernel/msg175729.html The last patch merges changes from both updates and provides a resolution for the conflicts which cannot be avoided when patches have been applied on the same files (mainly arch/arm/mm/dma-mapping.c)."
