2013-09-03tile: remove support for TILE64Chris Metcalf
This chip is no longer being actively developed for (it was superceded by the TILEPro64 in 2008), and in any case the existing compiler and toolchain in the community do not support it. It's unlikely that the kernel works with TILE64 at this point as the configuration has not been tested in years. The support is also awkward as it requires maintaining a significant number of ifdefs. So, just remove it altogether. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>
2013-09-03tile: add virt_to_kpte() API and clean up and document behaviorChris Metcalf
We use virt_to_pte(NULL, va) a lot, which isn't very obvious. I added virt_to_kpte(va) as a more obvious wrapper function, that also validates the va as being a kernel adddress. And, I fixed the semantics of virt_to_pte() so that we handle the pud and pmd the same way, and we now document the fact that we handle the final pte level differently.

2013-08-13tile: support CONFIG_PREEMPTChris Metcalf
This change adds support for CONFIG_PREEMPT (full kernel preemption). In addition to the core support, this change includes a number of places where we fix up uses of smp_processor_id() and per-cpu variables. I also eliminate the PAGE_HOME_HERE and PAGE_HOME_UNKNOWN values for page homing, as it turns out they weren't being used. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>
2013-02-08tile: export a handful of symbols appropriatelyChris Metcalf
This was shown up by running with "allmodconfig". I used EXPORT_SYMBOL() to match existing conventions in files that were already exporting symbols, or that were exported that way by other architectures, and otherwise EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(). Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>
2012-07-18tilegx pci: support I/O to arbitrarily-cached pagesChris Metcalf
The tilegx PCI root complex support (currently only in linux-next) is limited to pages that are homed on cached in the default manner, i.e. "hash-for-home". This change supports delivery of I/O data to pages that are cached in other ways (locally on a particular core, uncached, user-managed incoherent, etc.). A large part of the change is supporting flushing pages from cache on particular homes so that we can transition the data that we are delivering to or from the device appropriately. The new homecache_finv* routines handle this. Some changes to page_table_range_init() were also required to make the fixmap code work correctly on tilegx; it hadn't been used there before. We also remove some stub mark_caches_evicted_*() routines that were just no-ops anyway. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>
2012-05-25arch/tile: support multiple huge page sizes dynamicallyChris Metcalf
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.

2011-12-03arch/tile: fix double-free bug in homecache_free_pages()Chris Metcalf
When freeing the page with this API, the page was "put" twice. This was only discovered bringing up an MPT fusion controller, which actually used the API; it hadn't been invoked previously, so the bug had gone unnoticed. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>
2011-03-10arch/tile: support 4KB page size as well as 64KBChris Metcalf
The Tilera architecture traditionally supports 64KB page sizes to improve TLB utilization and improve performance when the hardware is being used primarily to run a single application. For more generic server scenarios, it can be beneficial to run with 4KB page sizes, so this commit allows that to be specified (by modifying the arch/tile/include/hv/pagesize.h header). As part of this change, we also re-worked the PTE management slightly so that PTE writes all go through a __set_pte() function where we can do some additional validation. The set_pte_order() function was eliminated since the "order" argument wasn't being used. One bug uncovered was in the PCI DMA code, which wasn't properly flushing the specified range. This was benign with 64KB pages, but with 4KB pages we were getting some larger flushes wrong. The per-cpu memory reservation code also needed updating to conform with the newer percpu stuff; before it always chose 64KB, and that was always correct, but with 4KB granularity we now have to pay closer attention and reserve the amount of memory that will be requested when the percpu code starts allocating.

2011-03-01arch/tile: enhance existing finv_buffer_remote() routineChris Metcalf
It now takes an additional argument so it can be used to flush-and-invalidate pages that are cached using hash-for-home as well those that are cached with coherence point on a single cpu. This allows it to be used more widely for changing the coherence point of arbitrary pages when necessary. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>
2010-10-15arch/tile: add Tilera's <arch/sim.h> header as an open-source headerChris Metcalf
This change adds one of the Tilera standard <arch> headers to the set of headers shipped with Linux. The <arch/sim.h> header provides methods for programmatically interacting with the Tilera simulator. The current <arch/sim.h> provides inline assembly for the _sim_syscall function, so the declaration and definition previously provided manually in Linux are no longer needed. We now use the standard sim_validate_lines_evicted() method from <arch/sim.h> rather than rolling our own direct call to sim_syscall(). Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>
2010-08-13arch/tile: Various cleanups.Chris Metcalf
This change rolls up random cleanups not representing any actual bugs. - Remove a stale CONFIG_ value from the default tile_defconfig - Remove unused tns_atomic_xxx() family of methods from <asm/atomic.h> - Optimize get_order() using Tile's "clz" instruction - Fix a bad hypervisor upcall name (not currently used in Linux anyway) - Use __copy_in_user_inatomic() name for consistency, and export it - Export some additional hypervisor driver I/O upcalls and some homecache calls - Remove the obfuscating MEMCPY_TEST_WH64 support code - Other stray comment cleanups, #if 0 removal, etc. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>
2010-07-06arch/tile: Miscellaneous cleanup changes.Chris Metcalf
This commit is primarily changes caused by reviewing "sparse" and "checkpatch" output on our sources, so is somewhat noisy, since things like "printk() -> pr_err()" (or whatever) throughout the codebase tend to get tedious to read. Rather than trying to tease apart precisely which things changed due to which type of code review, this commit includes various cleanups in the code: - sparse: Add declarations in headers for globals. - sparse: Fix __user annotations. - sparse: Using gfp_t consistently instead of int. - sparse: removing functions not actually used. - checkpatch: Clean up printk() warnings by using pr_info(), etc.; also avoid partial-line printks except in bootup code. - checkpatch: Use exposed structs rather than typedefs. - checkpatch: Change some C99 comments to C89 comments. In addition, a couple of minor other changes are rolled in to this commit: - Add support for a "raise" instruction to cause SIGFPE, etc., to be raised. - Remove some compat code that is unnecessary when we fully eliminate some of the deprecated syscalls from the generic syscall ABI. - Update the tile_defconfig to reflect current config contents.

2010-06-04arch/tile: core support for Tilera 32-bit chips.Chris Metcalf
This change is the core kernel support for TILEPro and TILE64 chips. No driver support (except the console driver) is included yet. This includes the relevant Linux headers in asm/; the low-level low-level "Tile architecture" headers in arch/, which are shared with the hypervisor, etc., and are build-system agnostic; and the relevant hypervisor headers in hv/.
