2011-05-16sparc32: implement SMP IPIs using the generic functionsDaniel Hellstrom
The current sparc32 SMP IPI generation is implemented the cross call function. The cross call function uses IRQ15 the NMI, this is has the effect that IPIs will interrupt IRQ critical areas and hang the system. Typically on/after spin_lock_irqsave calls can be aborted. The cross call functionality must still exist to flush cache/TLBS. This patch provides CPU models a custom way to implement generation of IPIs on the generic code's request. The typical approach is to generate an IRQ for each IPI case. After this patch each sparc32 SMP CPU model needs to implement IPIs in order to function properly.

2011-04-19sparc32: genirq supportSam Ravnborg
The conversion of sparc32 to genirq is based on original work done by David S. Miller. Daniel Hellstrom has helped in the conversion and implemented the shutdowm functionality. Marcel van Nies <morcles@gmail.com> has tested this on Sparc Station 20 Test status: sun4c - not tested sun4m,pci - not tested sun4m,sbus - tested (Sparc Classic, Sparc Station 5, Sparc Station 20) sun4d - not tested leon - tested on various combinations of leon boards, including SMP variants generic Introduce use of GENERIC_HARDIRQS and GENERIC_IRQ_SHOW Allocate 64 IRQs - which is enough even for SS2000 Use a table of irq_bucket to maintain uses IRQs irq_bucket is also used to chain several irq's that must be called when the same intrrupt is asserted Use irq_link to link a interrupt source to the irq All plafforms must now supply their own build_device_irq method handler_irq rewriten to use generic irq support floppy Read FLOPPY_IRQ from platform device Use generic request_irq to register the floppy interrupt Rewrote sparc_floppy_irq to use the generic irq support pcic: Introduce irq_chip Store mask in chip_data for use in mask/unmask functions Add build_device_irq for pcic Use pcic_build_device_irq in pci_time_init allocate virtual irqs in pcic_fill_irq sun4c: Introduce irq_chip Store mask in chip_data for use in mask/unmask functions Add build_device_irq for sun4c Use sun4c_build_device_irq in sun4c_init_timers sun4m: Introduce irq_chip Introduce dedicated mask/unmask methods Introduce sun4m_handler_data that allow easy access to necessary data in the mask/unmask functions Add a helper method to enable profile_timer (used from smp) Added sun4m_build_device_irq Use sun4m_build_device_irq in sun4m_init_timers TODO: There is no replacement for smp_rotate that always scheduled next CPU as interrupt target upon an interrupt sun4d: Introduce irq_chip Introduce dedicated mask/unmask methods Introduce sun4d_handler_data that allow easy access to necessary data in mask/unmask fuctions Rewrote sun4d_handler_irq to use generic irq support TODO: The original implmentation of enable/disable had: if (irq < NR_IRQS) return; The new implmentation does not distingush between SBUS and cpu interrupts. I am no sure what is right here. I assume we need to do something for the cpu interrupts. I have not succeeded booting my sun4d box (with or without this patch) and my understanding of this platfrom is limited.

2011-03-29sparc: Use the new genirq functionalityThomas Gleixner
Make use of the new features in genirq: 1) Set the chip flag IRCHIP_EOI_IF_HANDLED, which ensures in the core code that irq_eoi() is only called when the interrupt was handled. That removes the extra status check in the callback. 2) Use the preflow handler, which is called from the fasteoi core code before the device handler. That avoids another status check and the open coded handler redirection. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Cc: sparclinux@vger.kernel.org

2010-10-18irq_work: Add generic hardirq context callbacksPeter Zijlstra
Provide a mechanism that allows running code in IRQ context. It is most useful for NMI code that needs to interact with the rest of the system -- like wakeup a task to drain buffers. Perf currently has such a mechanism, so extract that and provide it as a generic feature, independent of perf so that others may also benefit. The IRQ context callback is generated through self-IPIs where possible, or on architectures like powerpc the decrementer (the built-in timer facility) is set to generate an interrupt immediately. Architectures that don't have anything like this get to do with a callback from the timer tick. These architectures can call irq_work_run() at the tail of any IRQ handlers that might enqueue such work (like the perf IRQ handler) to avoid undue latencies in processing the work.

2009-09-29sparc64: implement page mapping percpu first chunk allocatorTejun Heo
Implement page mapping percpu first chunk allocator as a fallback to the embedding allocator. The next patch will make the embedding allocator check distances between units to determine whether it fits within the vmalloc area so that this fallback can be used on such cases. sparc64 currently has relatively small vmalloc area which makes it impossible to create any dynamic chunks on certain configurations leading to percpu allocation failures. This and the next patch should allow those configurations to keep working until proper solution is found. While at it, mark pcpu_cpu_distance() with __init.

2009-09-21perf: Do the big rename: Performance Counters -> Performance EventsIngo Molnar
Bye-bye Performance Counters, welcome Performance Events! In the past few months the perfcounters subsystem has grown out its initial role of counting hardware events, and has become (and is becoming) a much broader generic event enumeration, reporting, logging, monitoring, analysis facility. Naming its core object 'perf_counter' and naming the subsystem 'perfcounters' has become more and more of a misnomer. With pending code like hw-breakpoints support the 'counter' name is less and less appropriate. All in one, we've decided to rename the subsystem to 'performance events' and to propagate this rename through all fields, variables and API names. (in an ABI compatible fashion) The word 'event' is also a bit shorter than 'counter' - which makes it slightly more convenient to write/handle as well. Thanks goes to Stephane Eranian who first observed this misnomer and suggested a rename. User-space tooling and ABI compatibility is not affected - this patch should be function-invariant. (Also, defconfigs were not touched to keep the size down.) This patch has been generated via the following script: FILES=$(find * -type f | grep -vE 'oprofile|[^K]config') sed -i \ -e 's/PERF_EVENT_/PERF_RECORD_/g' \ -e 's/PERF_COUNTER/PERF_EVENT/g' \ -e 's/perf_counter/perf_event/g' \ -e 's/nb_counters/nb_events/g' \ -e 's/swcounter/swevent/g' \ -e 's/tpcounter_event/tp_event/g' \ $FILES for N in $(find . -name perf_counter.[ch]); do M=$(echo $N | sed 's/perf_counter/perf_event/g') mv $N $M done FILES=$(find . -name perf_event.*) sed -i \ -e 's/COUNTER_MASK/REG_MASK/g' \ -e 's/COUNTER/EVENT/g' \ -e 's/\<event\>/event_id/g' \ -e 's/counter/event/g' \ -e 's/Counter/Event/g' \ $FILES ... to keep it as correct as possible. This script can also be used by anyone who has pending perfcounters patches - it converts a Linux kernel tree over to the new naming. We tried to time this change to the point in time where the amount of pending patches is the smallest: the end of the merge window. Namespace clashes were fixed up in a preparatory patch - and some stylistic fallout will be fixed up in a subsequent patch. ( NOTE: 'counters' are still the proper terminology when we deal with hardware registers - and these sed scripts are a bit over-eager in renaming them. I've undone some of that, but in case there's something left where 'counter' would be better than 'event' we can undo that on an individual basis instead of touching an otherwise nicely automated patch. ) Suggested-by: Stephane Eranian <eranian@google.com> Acked-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Acked-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Reviewed-by: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@linux.intel.com> Cc: Mike Galbraith <efault@gmx.de> Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Cc: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> Cc: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com> Cc: Kyle McMartin <kyle@mcmartin.ca> Cc: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com> Cc: "David S.

2009-08-14sparc64: use embedding percpu first chunk allocatorTejun Heo
sparc64 currently allocates a large page for each cpu and partially remap them into vmalloc area much like what lpage first chunk allocator did. As a 4M page is used for each cpu, this results in very large unit size and also adds TLB pressure due to the double mapping of pages in the first chunk. This patch converts sparc64 to use the embedding percpu first chunk allocator which now knows how to handle NUMA configurations. This simplifies the code a lot, doesn't incur any extra TLB pressure and results in better utilization of address space. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Acked-by: David S.

2009-08-10sparc: Add CONFIG_DMA_API_DEBUG supportFUJITA Tomonori
All we need to do for CONFIG_DMA_API_DEBUG support is call dma_debug_init() in DMA code common for SPARC32 and SPARC64. Now SPARC32 uses two dma_map_ops structures for pci and sbus so there is not much dma stuff for SPARC32 in kernel/dma.c. kernel/ioport.c also includes dma stuff for SPARC32. So let's put all the dma stuff for SPARC32 in kernel/ioport.c and make kernel/dma.c common for SPARC32 and SPARC64.

Commit e74e396204bfcb67570ba4517b08f5918e69afea incorrectly added HAVE_LEGACY_PER_CPU_AREA to sparc64 although it already has been converted to dynamic percpu allocator.

2009-06-24percpu: use dynamic percpu allocator as the default percpu allocatorTejun Heo
This patch makes most !CONFIG_HAVE_SETUP_PER_CPU_AREA archs use dynamic percpu allocator. The first chunk is allocated using embedding helper and 8k is reserved for modules. This ensures that the new allocator behaves almost identically to the original allocator as long as static percpu variables are concerned, so it shouldn't introduce much breakage. s390 and alpha use custom SHIFT_PERCPU_PTR() to work around addressing range limit the addressing model imposes. Unfortunately, this breaks if the address is specified using a variable, so for now, the two archs aren't converted. The following architectures are affected by this change. * sh * arm * cris * mips * sparc(32) * blackfin * avr32 * parisc (broken, under investigation) * m32r * powerpc(32) As this change makes the dynamic allocator the default one, CONFIG_HAVE_DYNAMIC_PER_CPU_AREA is replaced with its invert - CONFIG_HAVE_LEGACY_PER_CPU_AREA, which is added to yet-to-be converted archs. These archs implement their own setup_per_cpu_areas() and the conversion is not trivial. * powerpc(64) * sparc(64) * ia64 * alpha * s390 Boot and batch alloc/free tests on x86_32 with debug code (x86_32 doesn't use default first chunk initialization). Compile tested on sparc(32), powerpc(32), arm and alpha. Kyle McMartin reported that this change breaks parisc. The problem is still under investigation and he is okay with pushing this patch forward and fixing parisc later.
