<title>[PATCH] Directed yield: cpu_relax variants for spinlocks and rw-locks</title>
<updated>2006-10-01T07:39:21Z</updated>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.kobert.dev/pm24.git/commit/?id=ef6edc9746dc2bfdacf44eefd5f881179971c478'/>
<id>urn:sha1:ef6edc9746dc2bfdacf44eefd5f881179971c478</id>
<content type='text'>
On systems running with virtual cpus there is optimization potential in
regard to spinlocks and rw-locks.  If the virtual cpu that has taken a lock
is known to a cpu that wants to acquire the same lock it is beneficial to
yield the timeslice of the virtual cpu in favour of the cpu that has the
lock (directed yield).

With CONFIG_PREEMPT="n" this can be implemented by the architecture without
common code changes.  Powerpc already does this.

With CONFIG_PREEMPT="y" the lock loops are coded with _raw_spin_trylock,
_raw_read_trylock and _raw_write_trylock in kernel/spinlock.c.  If the lock
could not be taken cpu_relax is called.  A directed yield is not possible
because cpu_relax doesn't know anything about the lock.  To be able to
yield the lock in favour of the current lock holder variants of cpu_relax
for spinlocks and rw-locks are needed.  The new _raw_spin_relax,
_raw_read_relax and _raw_write_relax primitives differ from cpu_relax
insofar that they have an argument: a pointer to the lock structure.

<title>[PATCH] Standardize pxx_page macros</title>

<id>urn:sha1:46a82b2d5591335277ed2930611f6acb4ce654ed</id>
<content type='text'>
One of the changes necessary for shared page tables is to standardize the
pxx_page macros.  pte_page and pmd_page have always returned the struct
page associated with their entry, while pte_page_kernel and pmd_page_kernel
have returned the kernel virtual address.  pud_page and pgd_page, on the
other hand, return the kernel virtual address.

Shared page tables needs pud_page and pgd_page to return the actual page
structures.  There are very few actual users of these functions, so it is
simple to standardize their usage.

Since this is basic cleanup, I am submitting these changes as a standalone
patch.  Per Hugh Dickins' comments about it, I am also changing the
pxx_page_kernel macros to pxx_page_vaddr to clarify their meaning.

<id>urn:sha1:d3465c921f79cfef0a4a8ceeeef9a3721bbbb57d</id>
<content type='text'>
Incorporating the new way of cpm2 immr access, introduced in the previous
patch, into CPM2 peripheral devices (fs_enet and cpm_uart). Both ppc and
powerpc approved working( real actions taken in powerpc only, ppc just
has a wrapper to keep init stuff consistent).

<title>POWERPC: Get rid of remapping the whole immr</title>

<id>urn:sha1:fc8e50e349aa722d9f97ed9ba30e324ede8fa408</id>
<content type='text'>
The stuff below cleans up the code attempting to remap the whole cpm2_immr
early, as well as places happily assuming that fact. This is more like the 2.4
legacy stuff, and is at least confusing and unclear now.

To keep the world comfortable, a new mechanism is introduced: before accessing
specific immr register/register set, one needs to map it, using cpm2_map(&lt;reg&gt;),
for instance, access to CPM command register will look like
	volatile cpm_cpm2_t *cp = cpm2_map(im_cpm);
keeping the code clear, yet without "already defined somewhere" cpm2_immr.

So far, unmapping code is not implemented, but it's not a big deal to add it,
if the whole idea makes sense.

This moves the cpm2 common code and PIC stuff to the powerpc. Most of the files
were just copied from ppc/, with minor tuning to make it compile, and, subsequently, work.
