With prev fixes, all cores now start via common entry point @stext which already calls EARLY_CPU_SETUP for all cores - so no need to invoke it again Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com>

MCIP now registers it's own per cpu setup routine (for IPI IRQ request) using smp_ops.init_irq_cpu(). So no need for platforms to do that. This now completely decouples platforms from MCIP. Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com>

Note this is not part of platform owned static machine_desc, but more of device owned plat_smp_ops (rather misnamed) which a IPI provider or some such typically defines. This will help us seperate out the IPI registration from platform specific init_cpu_smp() into device specific init_irq_cpu() Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com>

MCIP now registers it's own probe callback with smp_ops.init_early_smp() which is called by ARC common code, so no need for platforms to do that. This decouples the platforms and MCIP and helps confine MCIP details to it's own file. Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com>

This adds a platform agnostic early SMP init hook which is called on Master core before calling setup_processor() setup_arch() smp_init_cpus() smp_ops.init_early_smp() ... setup_processor() How this helps: - Used for one time init of certain SMP centric IP blocks, before calling setup_processor() which probes various bits of core, possibly including this block - Currently platforms need to call this IP block init from their init routines, which doesn't make sense as this is specific to ARC core and not platform and otherwise requires copy/paste in all (and hence a possible point of failure) e.g. MCIP init is called from 2 platforms currently (axs10x and sim) which will go away once we have this. This change only adds the hooks but they are empty for now. Next commit will populate them and remove the explicit init calls from platforms. Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com>

These are not in use for ARC platforms. Moreover DT mechanims exist to probe them w/o explicit platform calls. - clocksource drivers can use CLOCKSOURCE_OF_DECLARE() - intc IRQCHIP_DECLARE() calls + cascading inside DT allows external intc to be probed automatically Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com>

The reason this was not done so far was lack of genuine IPI_IRQ for ARC700, as we don't have a SMP version of core yet (which might change soon thx to EZChip). Nevertheles to increase the build coverage, we need to allow CONFIG_SMP for ARC700 and still be able to run it on a UP platform (nsim or AXS101) with a UP Device Tree (SMP-on-UP) The build itself requires some define for IPI_IRQ and even a dummy value is fine since that code won't run anyways.

For Run-on-reset, non masters need to spin wait. For Halt-on-reset they can jump to entry point directly. Also while at it, made reset vector handler as "the" entry point for kernel including host debugger based boot (which uses the ELF header entry point) Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com>

For non halt-on-reset case, all cores start of simultaneously in @stext. Master core0 proceeds with kernel boot, while other spin-wait on @wake_flag being set by master once it is ready. So NO hardware assist is needed for master to "kick" the others. This patch moves this soft implementation out of mcip.c (as there is no hardware assist) into common smp.c Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com>

This is done by improving the laddering logic ! Before: if Exception goto excep_or_pure_k_ret if !Interrupt(L2) goto l1_chk else INTERRUPT_EPILOGUE 2 l1_chk: if !Interrupt(L1) (i.e. pure kernel mode) goto excep_or_pure_k_ret else INTERRUPT_EPILOGUE 1 excep_or_pure_k_ret: EXCEPTION_EPILOGUE Now: if !Interrupt(L1 or L2) (i.e. exception or pure kernel mode) goto excep_or_pure_k_ret ; guaranteed to be an interrupt if !Interrupt(L2) goto l1_ret else INTERRUPT_EPILOGUE 2 ; by virtue of above, no need to chk for L1 active l1_ret: INTERRUPT_EPILOGUE 1 excep_or_pure_k_ret: EXCEPTION_EPILOGUE Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com>

The requirement is to - Reenable Exceptions (AE cleared) - Reenable Interrupts (E1/E2 set) We need to do wiggle these bits into ERSTATUS and call RTIE. Prev version used the pre-exception STATUS32 as starting point for what goes into ERSTATUS. This required explicit fixups of U/DE/L bits. Instead, use the current (in-exception) STATUS32 as starting point. Being in exception handler U/DE/L can be safely assumed to be correct. Only AE/E1/E2 need to be fixed. So the new implementation is slightly better -Avoids read form memory -Is 4 bytes smaller for the typical 1 level of intr configuration -Depicts the semantics more clearly Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com>

Historically this was done by ARC IDE driver, which is long gone. IRQ core is pretty robust now and already checks if IRQs are enabled in hard ISRs. Thus no point in checking this in arch code, for every call of irq enabled. Further if some driver does do that - let it bring down the system so we notice/fix this sooner than covering up for sucker This makes local_irq_enable() - for L1 only case atleast simple enough so we can inline it.

Implement the TLB flush routine to evict a sepcific Super TLB entry, vs. moving to a new ASID on every such flush. Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com>
-
Vineet Gupta authored
ARCHes with special requirements for evicting THP backing TLB entries can implement this. Otherwise also, it can help optimize TLB flush in THP regime. stock flush_tlb_range() typically has optimization to nuke the entire TLB if flush span is greater than a certain threshhold, which will likely be true for a single huge page. Thus a single thp flush will invalidate the entrire TLB which is not desirable. e.g. see arch/arc: flush_pmd_tlb_range Acked-by: Kirill A.

MMUv4 in HS38x cores supports Super Pages which are basis for Linux THP support. Normal and Super pages can co-exist (ofcourse not overlap) in TLB with a new bit "SZ" in TLB page desciptor to distinguish between them. Super Page size is configurable in hardware (4K to 16M), but fixed once RTL builds. The exact THP size a Linx configuration will support is a function of: - MMU page size (typical 8K, RTL fixed) - software page walker address split between PGD:PTE:PFN (typical 11:8:13, but can be changed with 1 line) So for above default, THP size supported is 8K * 256 = 2M Default Page Walker is 2 levels, PGD:PTE:PFN, which in THP regime reduces to 1 level (as PTE is folded into PGD and canonically referred to as PMD). Thus thp PMD accessors are implemented in terms of PTE (just like sparc) Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com>

ARC is the only arch with unsigned long type (vs. struct page *). Historically this was done to avoid the page_address() calls in various arch hooks which need to get the virtual/logical address of the table. Some arches alternately define it as pte_t *, and is as efficient as unsigned long (generated code doesn't change) Suggested-by: Kirill A.

Pull strscpy string copy function implementation from Chris Metcalf. Chris sent this during the merge window, but I waffled back and forth on the pull request, which is why it's going in only now. The new "strscpy()" function is definitely easier to use and more secure than either strncpy() or strlcpy(), both of which are horrible nasty interfaces that have serious and irredeemable problems. strncpy() has a useless return value, and doesn't NUL-terminate an overlong result. To make matters worse, it pads a short result with zeroes, which is a performance disaster if you have big buffers. strlcpy(), by contrast, is a mis-designed "fix" for strlcpy(), lacking the insane NUL padding, but having a differently broken return value which returns the original length of the source string. Which means that it will read characters past the count from the source buffer, and you have to trust the source to be properly terminated. It also makes error handling fragile, since the test for overflow is unnecessarily subtle. strscpy() avoids both these problems, guaranteeing the NUL termination (but not excessive padding) if the destination size wasn't zero, and making the overflow condition very obvious by returning -E2BIG. It also doesn't read past the size of the source, and can thus be used for untrusted source data too. So why did I waffle about this for so long? Every time we introduce a new-and-improved interface, people start doing these interminable series of trivial conversion patches. And every time that happens, somebody does some silly mistake, and the conversion patch to the improved interface actually makes things worse. Because the patch is mindnumbing and trivial, nobody has the attention span to look at it carefully, and it's usually done over large swatches of source code which means that not every conversion gets tested. So I'm pulling the strscpy() support because it *is* a better interface. But I will refuse to pull mindless conversion patches. Use this in places where it makes sense, but don't do trivial patches to fix things that aren't actually known to be broken. * 'strscpy' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/cmetcalf/linux-tile: tile: use global strscpy() rather than private copy string: provide strscpy() Make asm/word-at-a-time.h available on all architectures

The MIPS syscall handler code used to return -ENOSYS on invalid syscalls. Whilst this is expected, it caused problems for seccomp filters because the said filters never had the change to run since the code returned -ENOSYS before triggering them. This caused problems on the chromium testsuite for filters looking for invalid syscalls. This has now changed and the seccomp filters are always run even if the syscall is invalid. We return -ENOSYS once we return from the seccomp filters. Moreover, similar codepaths have been merged in the process which simplifies somewhat the overall syscall code.
