Now that we have same helper used for all icache invalidates (i.e. vaddr+paddr based exact line invalidate), consolidate the open coded calls into one place. Also rename flush_icache_range_vaddr => __sync_icache_dcache Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com>

This change continues the theme from prev commit - this time icache handling for kernel's own code modification (vmalloc: loadable modules, breakpoints for kprobes/kgdb...) flush_icache_range() calls the CDU icache helper with vaddr to enable exact line invalidate. For a true kernel-virtual mapping, the vaddr is actually virtual hence valid as index into cache. For kprobes breakpoint however, the vaddr arg is actually paddr - since that's how normal kernel is mapped in ARC memory map. This implies that CDU will use the same addr for indexing as for tag match - which is fine since kernel code would only have that "implicit" mapping and none other. This should speed up module loading significantly - specially on default ARC700 icache configurations (32k) which alias. Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com>

ARC icache doesn't snoop dcache thus executable pages need to be made coherent before mapping into userspace in flush_icache_page(). However ARC700 CDU (hardware cache flush module) requires both vaddr (index in cache) as well as paddr (tag match) to correctly identify a line in the VIPT cache. A typical ARC700 SoC has aliasing icache, thus the paddr only based flush_icache_page() API couldn't be implemented efficiently. It had to loop thru all possible alias indexes and perform the invalidate operation (ofcourse the cache op would only succeed at the index(es) where tag matches - typically only 1, but the cost of visiting all the cache-bins needs to paid nevertheless). Turns out however that the vaddr (along with paddr) is available in update_mmu_cache() hence better suits ARC icache flush semantics. With both vaddr+paddr, exactly one flush operation per line is done. Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com>

munmap ends up calling tlb_flush() which for ARC was flushing the entire TLB unconditionally (by moving the MMU to a new ASID) do_munmap unmap_region unmap_vmas unmap_single_vma unmap_page_range tlb_start_vma zap_pud_range tlb_end_vma() tlb_finish_mmu tlb_flush() ---> unconditional flush_tlb_mm() So even a single page munmap, a frequent operation when uClibc dynamic linker (ldso) is loading the dependent shared libraries, would move the the ASID multiple times - needlessly invalidating the pre-faulted TLB entries (and increasing the rate of ASID wraparound + full TLB flush). This is now optimised to only be called if tlb->full_mm (which means for exit/execve) cases only. And for those cases, flush_tlb_mm() is already optimised to be a no-op for mm->mm_users == 0. So essentially there are no mmore full mm flushes - except for fork which anyhow needs it for properly COW'ing parent address space. munmap now needs to do TLB range flush, which is implemented with tlb_end_vma() Results ------- 1. ASID now consistenly moves by 4 during a simple ls (as opposed to 5 or 7 before). 2.

arc-intc is initialized in arc common code as it is applicable to all platforms. However platforms with their own external intc still need to refer to it for correct DT interrupt tree hierarchy setup, e.g. static struct of_device_id __initdata tb10x_irq_ids[] = { { .compatible = "snps,arc700-intc", .data = dummy_init_irq }, { .compatible = "abilis,tb10x_ictl", .data = tb10x_init_irq }, {}, }; The fix is to use the generic irqchip framework to tie all irqchips in a special linker section and then call irqchip_init() which calls the DT of_irq_init() for all the intc in one go. That way the platform code need not be aware of arc-intc at all. Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com>

Currently, for every ARC kernel build I see the following: --------------->8----------------- DTB arch/arc/boot/dts/angel4.dtb.S AS arch/arc/boot/dts/angel4.dtb.o LD arch/arc/boot/dts/built-in.o rm arch/arc/boot/dts/angel4.dtb.S <-- forces rebuild next iter CHK kernel/config_data.h --------------->8----------------- This is because *.dts.S is intermediate file in dtb generation and is by default deleted by make which needs a ".SECONDARY" hint to NOT do so. This could have ideally been done in scripts/Makefile.lib - for benefit of all, however .SECONDARY doesn't seem to work with wildcards. Thanks to Stephen for suggesting .SECONDARY (vs .PRECIOUS) and making that work using a non wildcard version in arch makefile.

Currently ARC_HAS_LLSC can be influenced by platform for SMP only using ARC_HAS_COH_LLSC. For !SMP it defaults to "y". It turns out that some customers can't support it all, even in UP. So we change the semantics, and use a negative dependency ARC_CANT_LLSC. Any platform (independent of SMP or !SMP) can select it to disable LLSC. Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com>

ARC irqsave/restore macros were missing the compiler barrier, causing a stale load in irq-enabled region be used in irq-safe region, despite being changed, because the register holding the value was still live. The problem manifested as random crashes in timer code when stress testing ARCLinux (3.9-rc3) on a !SMP && !PREEMPT_COUNT Here's the exact sequence which caused this: (0). tv1[x] <----> t1 <---> t2 (1). mod_timer(t1) interrupted after it calls timer_pending() (2). mod_timer(t2) completes (3). mod_timer(t1) resumes but messes up the list (4). __runt_timers( ) uses bogus timer_list entry / crashes in timer->function Essentially mod_timer() was racing against itself and while the spinlock serialized the tv1[] timer link list, timer_pending() called outside the spinlock, cached timer link list element in a register. With low register pressure (and a deep register file), lack of barrier in raw_local_irqsave() as well as preempt_disable (!PREEMPT_COUNT version), there was nothing to force gcc to reload across the spinlock, causing a stale value in reg be used for link list manipulation - ensuing a corruption. ARcompact disassembly which shows the culprit generated code: mod_timer: push_s blink mov_s r13,r0 # timer, timer .. ###### timer_pending( ) ld_s r3,[r13] # <------ <variable>.entry.next LOADED brne r3, 0, @.L163 .L163: .. ###### spin_lock_irq( ) lr r5, [status32] # flags bic r4, r5, 6 # temp, flags, and.f 0, r5, 6 # flags, flag.nz r4 ###### detach_if_pending( ) begins tst_s r3,r3 <-------------- # timer_pending( ) checks timer->entry.next # r3 is NOT reloaded by gcc, using stale value beq.d @.L169 mov.eq r0,0 ##### detach_timer( ): __list_del( ) ld r4,[r13,4] # <variable>.entry.prev, D.31439 st r4,[r3,4] # <variable>.prev, D.31439 st r3,[r4] # <variable>.next, D.30246 We initially tried to fix this by adding barrier() to preempt_* macros for !PREEMPT_COUNT but Linus clarified that it was anything but wrong. http://www.spinics.net/lists/kernel/msg1512709.html [vgupta: updated commitlog] Reported-by/Signed-off-by: Christian Ruppert <christian.ruppert@abilis.com> Cc: Christian Ruppert <christian.ruppert@abilis.com> Cc: Pierrick Hascoet <pierrick.hascoet@abilis.com> Debugged-by/Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Merge tag 'trace-fixes-3.9-rc6' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace Pull tracing fixes from Steven Rostedt: "This includes three fixes. Two fix features added in 3.9 and one fixes a long time minor bug. The first patch fixes a race that can happen if the user switches from the irqsoff tracer to another tracer. If a irqs off latency is detected, it will try to use the snapshot buffer, but the new tracer wont have it allocated. There's a nasty warning that gets printed and the trace is ignored. Nothing crashes, just a nasty WARN_ON is shown. The second patch fixes an issue where if the sysctl is used to disable and enable function tracing, it can put the function tracing into an unstable state. The third patch fixes an issue with perf using the function tracer. An update was done, where the stub function could be called during the perf function tracing, and that stub function wont have the "control" flag set and cause a nasty warning when running perf." * tag 'trace-fixes-3.9-rc6' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace: ftrace: Do not call stub functions in control loop ftrace: Consistently restore trace function on sysctl enabling tracing: Fix race with update_max_tr_single and changing tracers

The function tracing control loop used by perf spits out a warning if the called function is not a control function. This is because the control function references a per cpu allocated data structure on struct ftrace_ops that is not allocated for other types of functions. commit 0a016409 "ftrace: Optimize the function tracer list loop" Had an optimization done to all function tracing loops to optimize for a single registered ops. Unfortunately, this allows for a slight race when tracing starts or ends, where the stub function might be called after the current registered ops is removed. In this case we get the following dump: root# perf stat -e ftrace:function sleep 1 [ 74.339105] WARNING: at include/linux/ftrace.h:209 ftrace_ops_control_func+0xde/0xf0() [ 74.349522] Hardware name: PRIMERGY RX200 S6 [ 74.357149] Modules linked in: sg igb iTCO_wdt ptp pps_core iTCO_vendor_support i7core_edac dca lpc_ich i2c_i801 coretemp edac_core crc32c_intel mfd_core ghash_clmulni_intel dm_multipath acpi_power_meter pcspk r microcode vhost_net tun macvtap macvlan nfsd kvm_intel kvm auth_rpcgss nfs_acl lockd sunrpc uinput xfs libcrc32c sd_mod crc_t10dif sr_mod cdrom mgag200 i2c_algo_bit drm_kms_helper ttm qla2xxx mptsas ahci drm li bahci scsi_transport_sas mptscsih libata scsi_transport_fc i2c_core mptbase scsi_tgt dm_mirror dm_region_hash dm_log dm_mod [ 74.446233] Pid: 1377, comm: perf Tainted: G W 3.9.0-rc1 #1 [ 74.453458] Call Trace: [ 74.456233] [<ffffffff81062e3f>] warn_slowpath_common+0x7f/0xc0 [ 74.462997] [<ffffffff810fbc60>] ? rcu_note_context_switch+0xa0/0xa0 [ 74.470272] [<ffffffff811041a2>] ? __unregister_ftrace_function+0xa2/0x1a0 [ 74.478117] [<ffffffff81062e9a>] warn_slowpath_null+0x1a/0x20 [ 74.484681] [<ffffffff81102ede>] ftrace_ops_control_func+0xde/0xf0 [ 74.491760] [<ffffffff8162f400>] ftrace_call+0x5/0x2f [ 74.497511] [<ffffffff8162f400>] ? ftrace_call+0x5/0x2f [ 74.503486] [<ffffffff8162f400>] ? ftrace_call+0x5/0x2f [ 74.509500] [<ffffffff810fbc65>] ? synchronize_sched+0x5/0x50 [ 74.516088] [<ffffffff816254d5>] ? _cond_resched+0x5/0x40 [ 74.522268] [<ffffffff810fbc65>] ? synchronize_sched+0x5/0x50 [ 74.528837] [<ffffffff811041a2>] ? __unregister_ftrace_function+0xa2/0x1a0 [ 74.536696] [<ffffffff816254d5>] ? _cond_resched+0x5/0x40 [ 74.542878] [<ffffffff8162402d>] ? mutex_lock+0x1d/0x50 [ 74.548869] [<ffffffff81105c67>] unregister_ftrace_function+0x27/0x50 [ 74.556243] [<ffffffff8111eadf>] perf_ftrace_event_register+0x9f/0x140 [ 74.563709] [<ffffffff816254d5>] ? _cond_resched+0x5/0x40 [ 74.569887] [<ffffffff8162402d>] ? mutex_lock+0x1d/0x50 [ 74.575898] [<ffffffff8111e94e>] perf_trace_destroy+0x2e/0x50 [ 74.582505] [<ffffffff81127ba9>] tp_perf_event_destroy+0x9/0x10 [ 74.589298] [<ffffffff811295d0>] free_event+0x70/0x1a0 [ 74.595208] [<ffffffff8112a579>] perf_event_release_kernel+0x69/0xa0 [ 74.602460] [<ffffffff816254d5>] ? _cond_resched+0x5/0x40 [ 74.608667] [<ffffffff8112a640>] put_event+0x90/0xc0 [ 74.614373] [<ffffffff8112a740>] perf_release+0x10/0x20 [ 74.620367] [<ffffffff811a3044>] __fput+0xf4/0x280 [ 74.625894] [<ffffffff811a31de>] ____fput+0xe/0x10 [ 74.631387] [<ffffffff81083697>] task_work_run+0xa7/0xe0 [ 74.637452] [<ffffffff81014981>] do_notify_resume+0x71/0xb0 [ 74.643843] [<ffffffff8162fa92>] int_signal+0x12/0x17 To fix this a new ftrace_ops flag is added that denotes the ftrace_list_end ftrace_ops stub as just that, a stub.
