We can boot dra62x j5-eco using the dm814x code as the clocks and devices are mapped in the device tree. The dra62x is also known as jacinto 5 eco. We may want to add separate soc_is macros for dra62x if needed, but this gets us to the point where we can boot dra62x with just dts changes. Let's also print out the unknown hawkeye register to make things a bit easier for new SoC variants. Signed-off-by: Tony Lindgren <tony@atomide.com>

We want to be able to probe a few selected device drivers before hwmod code populates the clocks in omap_hwmod_setup_all(). This allows us to convert most of the clock drivers into regular device drivers. We only need a few minimal clock drivers early for the system timers to select between the 32KiHz clock and the high frequency oscillator. With these changes, initializing the clock drivers can be just done at core_initcall time with something like: np = of_find_node_by_name(NULL, "plls"); if (np) of_platform_populate(np, NULL, NULL, NULL); And then these clocks will be available for the interconnect code to use. Having most of the clock drivers being regular device drivers allows us to use the nice things like devm_* functions and dev_err and dev_dbg. As an extra bonus, this also allows us to develop the clock drivers for new SoCs as loadable modules initially for cases where we can boot up the system based on the bootloader configured clocks. To do this, let's change the core_initcalls to postcore_initcall under mach-omap2.

UART4 low level debug support. This helps in debugging with UART4 serial console output on DRA7 based platforms. Extending the following fix for UART4. commit 1c7e36bf ("ARM: DRA7: hwmod: Fix boot crash with DEBUG_LL enabled on UART3") For using DEBUG_LL, enable CONFIG_DEBUG_OMAP4UART4 in menuconfig. On DRA7, UART4 hwmod doesn't have this flag enabled, failure observed when UART4 is used for low level debugging. Hence, Enable DEBUG_OMAP4UART4_FLAGS for UART4 hwmod. Signed-off-by: J.D.

Timer 12 on DRA7 SoCs is reserved for secure usage on high-secure (HS) devices. The timer cannot be used by the kernel on HS devices, but is available on regular general purpose (GP) devices. This is similar to the behavior on OMAP3 devices, so extend the logic used in commit ad24bde8 ("ARM: OMAP3: Dynamically disable secure timer nodes for secure devices") to remove the secure timer on DRA7xx SoCs at run-time based on the SoC device type.

The omap_dm_timer_set_source() function provides a means for client users to configure the mux parent for a GPTimer's functional clock. However, not all timers are configurable (Eg: Timer12 on DRA7 is fed by an internal 32k oscillator clock, and does not have configurable parent clocks). So, check for such cases and proceed with out throwing an error. Signed-off-by: Suman Anna <s-anna@ti.com> Signed-off-by: Tony Lindgren <tony@atomide.com>

Plus the mem cgroup counterpart in kmem_cache_free_bulk() were missing (see commit 03374518 "slub: add missing kmem cgroup support to kmem_cache_free_bulk").

Adjust kmem_cache_alloc_bulk API before we have any real users. Adjust API to return type 'int' instead of previously type 'bool'. This is done to allow future extension of the bulk alloc API. A future extension could be to allow SLUB to stop at a page boundary, when specified by a flag, and then return the number of objects. The advantage of this approach, would make it easier to make bulk alloc run without local IRQs disabled. With an approach of cmpxchg "stealing" the entire c->freelist or page->freelist. To avoid overshooting we would stop processing at a slab-page boundary. Else we always end up returning some objects at the cost of another cmpxchg. To keep compatible with future users of this API linking against an older kernel when using the new flag, we need to return the number of allocated objects with this API change.

Initial implementation missed support for kmem cgroup support in kmem_cache_free_bulk() call, add this. If CONFIG_MEMCG_KMEM is not enabled, the compiler should be smart enough to not add any asm code. Incoming bulk free objects can belong to different kmem cgroups, and object free call can happen at a later point outside memcg context. Thus, we need to keep the orig kmem_cache, to correctly verify if a memcg object match against its "root_cache" (s->memcg_params.root_cache).

The call slab_pre_alloc_hook() interacts with kmemgc and is not allowed to be called several times inside the bulk alloc for loop, due to the call to memcg_kmem_get_cache(). This would result in hitting the VM_BUG_ON in __memcg_kmem_get_cache. As suggested by Vladimir Davydov, change slab_post_alloc_hook() to be able to handle an array of objects. A subtle detail is, loop iterator "i" in slab_post_alloc_hook() must have same type (size_t) as size argument. This helps the compiler to easier realize that it can remove the loop, when all debug statements inside loop evaluates to nothing. Note, this is only an issue because the kernel is compiled with GCC option: -fno-strict-overflow In slab_alloc_node() the compiler inlines and optimizes the invocation of slab_post_alloc_hook(s, flags, 1, &object) by removing the loop and access object directly.

This change focus on improving the speed of object freeing in the "slowpath" of kmem_cache_free_bulk. The calls slab_free (fastpath) and __slab_free (slowpath) have been extended with support for bulk free, which amortize the overhead of the (locked) cmpxchg_double. To use the new bulking feature, we build what I call a detached freelist. The detached freelist takes advantage of three properties: 1) the free function call owns the object that is about to be freed, thus writing into this memory is synchronization-free. 2) many freelist's can co-exist side-by-side in the same slab-page each with a separate head pointer. 3) it is the visibility of the head pointer that needs synchronization. Given these properties, the brilliant part is that the detached freelist can be constructed without any need for synchronization. The freelist is constructed directly in the page objects, without any synchronization needed. The detached freelist is allocated on the stack of the function call kmem_cache_free_bulk. Thus, the freelist head pointer is not visible to other CPUs. All objects in a SLUB freelist must belong to the same slab-page. Thus, constructing the detached freelist is about matching objects that belong to the same slab-page. The bulk free array is scanned is a progressive manor with a limited look-ahead facility. Kmem debug support is handled in call of slab_free(). Notice kmem_cache_free_bulk no longer need to disable IRQs. This only slowed down single free bulk with approx 3 cycles.

Make it possible to free a freelist with several objects by adjusting API of slab_free() and __slab_free() to have head, tail and an objects counter (cnt). Tail being NULL indicate single object free of head object. This allow compiler inline constant propagation in slab_free() and slab_free_freelist_hook() to avoid adding any overhead in case of single object free. This allows a freelist with several objects (all within the same slab-page) to be free'ed using a single locked cmpxchg_double in __slab_free() and with an unlocked cmpxchg_double in slab_free(). Object debugging on the free path is also extended to handle these freelists. When CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG is enabled it will also detect if objects don't belong to the same slab-page. These changes are needed for the next patch to bulk free the detached freelists it introduces and constructs. Micro benchmarking showed no performance reduction due to this change, when debugging is turned off (compiled with CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG).

This patch adds huge page support to allow userspace to allocate huge pages and to use hugetlbfs filesystem on 32- and 64-bit Linux kernels. A later patch will add kernel support to map kernel text and data on huge pages. The only requirement is, that the kernel needs to be compiled for a PA8X00 CPU (PA2.0 architecture). Older PA1.X CPUs do not support variable page sizes. 64bit Kernels are compiled for PA2.0 by default. Technically on parisc multiple physical huge pages may be needed to emulate standard 2MB huge pages. Signed-off-by: Helge Deller <deller@gmx.de>

Use the 22bit instead of the 17bit branch instruction on a 64bit kernel to reach the do_syscall_trace_exit function from the gateway page. A huge page enabled kernel may need the additional branch distance bits. Signed-off-by: Helge Deller <deller@gmx.de>

For the 64bit kernel the initially 16 MB kernel memory might become too small if you build a kernel with many modules built-in and with kernel text and data areas mapped on huge pages. This patch increases the initial mapping to 32MB for 64bit kernels and keeps 16MB for 32bit kernels. Signed-off-by: Helge Deller <deller@gmx.de>

A fault vector on parisc needs to be 2K aligned. Furthermore the checksum of the fault vector needs to sum up to 0 which is being calculated and written at runtime. Up to now we aligned both PA20 and PA11 fault vectors on the same 4K page in order to easily write the checksum after having mapped the kernel read-only (by mapping this page only as read-write). But when we want to map the kernel text and data on huge pages this makes things harder. So, simplify it by aligning both fault vectors on 2K boundries and write the checksum before we map the page read-only. Signed-off-by: Helge Deller <deller@gmx.de>

Huge pages on parisc will have the same size as one pmd table, which is on a 64bit kernel 2MB on a kernel with 4K kernel page sizes, and on a 32bit kernel 4MB when used with 4K kernel pages. Since parisc does not physically supports 2MB huge page sizes, emulate it with two consecutive 1MB page sizes instead. Keeping the same huge page size as one pmd will allow us to add transparent huge page support later on. Bit 21 in the pte flags was unused and will now be used to mark a page as huge page (_PAGE_HPAGE_BIT). Signed-off-by: Helge Deller <deller@gmx.de>
