If we're just switching between different alternate global sets, nop it out on sun4v. Also, get rid of all of the alternate global save/restore in the OBP CIF trampoline code. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

They are totally unnecessary because: 1) Interrupts are already disabled when switch_to() runs. 2) We don't use hard-coded alternate globals any longer. This found a case in rtrap, which still assumed alternate global %g6 was current_thread_info(), and that is fixed by this changeset as well. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Instead of setting/clearing PSTATE_AG we have to change the %gl register value on sun4v. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

As we save trap state onto the stack, the store buffer fills up mid-way through and we stall for several cycles as the store buffer trickles out to the L2 cache. Meanwhile we can do some privileged register reads and other calculations, essentially for free. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

When saving and restoing trap state, do the window spill/fill handling inline so that we never trap deeper than 2 trap levels. This is important for chips like Niagara. The window fixup code is massively simplified, and many more improvements are now possible. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

On uniprocessor, it's always zero for optimize that. On SMP, the jmpl to the stub kills the return address stack in the cpu branch prediction logic, so expand the code sequence inline and use a code patching section to fix things up. This also always better and explicit register selection, which will be taken advantage of in a future changeset. The hard_smp_processor_id() function is big, so do not inline it. Fix up tests for Jalapeno to also test for Serrano chips too. These tests want "jbus Ultra-IIIi" cases to match, so that is what we should test for. Signed-off-by: David S.

There are several tricky races involved with growing the TSB. So just use base-size TSBs for user contexts and we can revisit enabling this later. One part of the SMP problems is that tsb_context_switch() can see partially updated TSB configuration state if tsb_grow() is running in parallel. That's easily solved with a seqlock taken as a writer by tsb_grow() and taken as a reader to capture all the TSB config state in tsb_context_switch(). Then there is flush_tsb_user() running in parallel with a tsb_grow(). In theory we could take the seqlock as a reader there too, and just resample the TSB pointer and reflush but that looks really ugly. Lastly, I believe there is a case with threads that results in a TSB entry lock bit being set spuriously which will cause the next access to that TSB entry to wedge the cpu (since the TSB entry lock bit will never clear). It's either copy_tsb() or some bug elsewhere in the TSB assembly. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

The are distrupting, which by the sparc v9 definition means they can only occur when interrupts are enabled in the %pstate register. This never occurs in any of the trap handling code running at trap levels > 0. So just mark it as an unexpected trap. This allows us to kill off the cee_stuff member of struct thread_info.

This way we don't need to lock the TSB into the TLB. The trick is that every TSB load/store is registered into a special instruction patch section. The default uses virtual addresses, and the patch instructions use physical address load/stores. We can't do this on all chips because only cheetah+ and later have the physical variant of the atomic quad load. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

If we are returning back to kernel mode, %g4 could be live (for example, in the case where we window spill in the etrap code). So do not change it's value if going back to kernel. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Since we use %g5 itself as a temporary, it can get clobbered if we take an interrupt mid-stream and thus cause end up with the final %g5 value too early as a result of rtrap processing. Set %g5 at the very end, atomically, to avoid this problem. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

%g6 is not necessarily set to current_thread_info() at sparc64_realfault_common. So store the fault code and address after we invoke etrap and %g6 is properly set up. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Some of the trap code was still assuming that alternate global %g6 was hard coded with current_thread_info(). Let's just consistently flush at KERNBASE when we need a pipeline synchronization. That's locked into the TLB and will always work. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

As the RSS grows, grow the TSB in order to reduce the likelyhood of hash collisions and thus poor hit rates in the TSB. This definitely needs some serious tuning. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

This also cleans up tsb_context_switch(). The assembler routine is now __tsb_context_switch() and the former is an inline function that picks out the bits from the mm_struct and passes it into the assembler code as arguments. setup_tsb_parms() computes the locked TLB entry to map the TSB. Later when we support using the physical address quad load instructions of Cheetah+ and later, we'll simply use the physical address for the TSB register value and set the map virtual and PTE both to zero.

Move {init_new,destroy}_context() out of line. Do not put huge pages into the TSB, only base page size translations. There are some clever things we could do here, but for now let's be correct instead of fancy. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

UltraSPARC has special sets of global registers which are switched to for certain trap types. There is one set for MMU related traps, one set of Interrupt Vector processing, and another set (called the Alternate globals) for all other trap types. For what seems like forever we've hard coded the values in some of these trap registers. Some examples include: 1) Interrupt Vector global %g6 holds current processors interrupt work struct where received interrupts are managed for IRQ handler dispatch. 2) MMU global %g7 holds the base of the page tables of the currently active address space. 3) Alternate global %g6 held the current_thread_info() value. Such hardcoding has resulted in some serious issues in many areas. There are some code sequences where having another register available would help clean up the implementation. Taking traps such as cross-calls from the OBP firmware requires some trick code sequences wherein we have to save away and restore all of the special sets of global registers when we enter/exit OBP. We were also using the IMMU TSB register on SMP to hold the per-cpu area base address, which doesn't work any longer now that we actually use the TSB facility of the cpu. The implementation is pretty straight forward. One tricky bit is getting the current processor ID as that is different on different cpu variants. We use a stub with a fancy calling convention which we patch at boot time. The calling convention is that the stub is branched to and the (PC - 4) to return to is in register %g1. The cpu number is left in %g6. This stub can be invoked by using the __GET_CPUID macro. We use an array of per-cpu trap state to store the current thread and physical address of the current address space's page tables. The TRAP_LOAD_THREAD_REG loads %g6 with the current thread from this table, it uses __GET_CPUID and also clobbers %g1. TRAP_LOAD_IRQ_WORK is used by the interrupt vector processing to load the current processor's IRQ software state into %g6. It also uses __GET_CPUID and clobbers %g1. Finally, TRAP_LOAD_PGD_PHYS loads the physical address base of the current address space's page tables into %g7, it clobbers %g1 and uses __GET_CPUID. Many refinements are possible, as well as some tuning, with this stuff in place. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
