2019-02-04MIPS: Loongson: Introduce and use loongson_llsc_mb()Huacai Chen
On the Loongson-2G/2H/3A/3B there is a hardware flaw that ll/sc and lld/scd is very weak ordering. We should add sync instructions "before each ll/lld" and "at the branch-target between ll/sc" to workaround. Otherwise, this flaw will cause deadlock occasionally (e.g. when doing heavy load test with LTP). Below is the explaination of CPU designer: "For Loongson 3 family, when a memory access instruction (load, store, or prefetch)'s executing occurs between the execution of LL and SC, the success or failure of SC is not predictable. Although programmer would not insert memory access instructions between LL and SC, the memory instructions before LL in program-order, may dynamically executed between the execution of LL/SC, so a memory fence (SYNC) is needed before LL/LLD to avoid this situation. Since Loongson-3A R2 (3A2000), we have improved our hardware design to handle this case. But we later deduce a rarely circumstance that some speculatively executed memory instructions due to branch misprediction between LL/SC still fall into the above case, so a memory fence (SYNC) at branch-target (if its target is not between LL/SC) is needed for Loongson 3A1000, 3B1500, 3A2000 and 3A3000. Our processor is continually evolving and we aim to to remove all these workaround-SYNCs around LL/SC for new-come processor." Here is an example: Both cpu1 and cpu2 simutaneously run atomic_add by 1 on same atomic var, this bug cause both 'sc' run by two cpus (in atomic_add) succeed at same time('sc' return 1), and the variable is only *added by 1*, sometimes, which is wrong and unacceptable(it should be added by 2). Why disable fix-loongson3-llsc in compiler? Because compiler fix will cause problems in kernel's __ex_table section. This patch fix all the cases in kernel, but: +. the fix at the end of futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic is for branch-target of 'bne', there other cases which smp_mb__before_llsc() and smp_llsc_mb() fix the ll and branch-target coincidently such as atomic_sub_if_positive/ cmpxchg/xchg, just like this one. +. Loongson 3 does support CONFIG_EDAC_ATOMIC_SCRUB, so no need to touch edac.h +. local_ops and cmpxchg_local should not be affected by this bug since only the owner can write. +. mips_atomic_set for syscall.c is deprecated and rarely used, just let it go Signed-off-by: Huacai Chen <chenhc@lemote.com> Signed-off-by: Huang Pei <huangpei@loongson.cn> [paul.burton@mips.com: - Simplify the addition of -mno-fix-loongson3-llsc to cflags, and add a comment describing why it's there. - Make loongson_llsc_mb() a no-op when CONFIG_CPU_LOONGSON3_WORKAROUNDS=n, rather than a compiler memory barrier. - Add a comment describing the bug & how loongson_llsc_mb() helps in asm/barrier.h.] Signed-off-by: Paul Burton <paul.burton@mips.com> Cc: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org> Cc: ambrosehua@gmail.com Cc: Steven J .

2019-01-04fls: change parameter to unsigned intMatthew Wilcox
When testing in userspace, UBSAN pointed out that shifting into the sign bit is undefined behaviour. It doesn't really make sense to ask for the highest set bit of a negative value, so just turn the argument type into an unsigned int. Some architectures (eg ppc) already had it declared as an unsigned int, so I don't expect too many problems.

2018-11-09MIPS: Avoid using .set mips0 to restore ISAPaul Burton
We currently have 2 commonly used methods for switching ISA within assembly code, then restoring the original ISA. 1) Using a pair of .set push & .set pop directives. For example: .set push .set mips32r2 <some_insn> .set pop 2) Using .set mips0 to restore the ISA originally specified on the command line. For example: .set mips32r2 <some_insn> .set mips0 Unfortunately method 2 does not work with nanoMIPS toolchains, where the assembler rejects the .set mips0 directive like so: Error: cannot change ISA from nanoMIPS to mips0 In preparation for supporting nanoMIPS builds, switch all instances of method 2 in generic non-platform-specific code to use push & pop as in method 1 instead. The .set push & .set pop is arguably cleaner anyway, and if nothing else it's good to consistently use one method.

Repleace smp_mb() in arch_write_unlock() and __clear_bit_unlock() to smp_mb__before_llsc() call which does "release" barrier functionality. It seems like it was missed in commit f252ffd50c97dae87b45f1dbad24f71358ccfbd6 during introduction of "acquire" and "release" semantics. [ralf@linux-mips: The original patch submission was labelled a fix but actually it replaces a barrier with another less restrictive type of barrier so it doesn't fix any ill behaviour but rather squeezes out a tad better performance.

2015-04-08MIPS: bitops.h: Avoid inline asm for constant FLSMaciej W. Rozycki
GCC is smart enough to substitute the final result for FLS calculations as implemented in the fallback C code we have in `__fls' and `fls' applied to constant values. The presence of inline asm defeats the compiler though, forcing it to emit extraneous CLZ/DCLZ calculation for processors that support these instructions.

2014-11-24MIPS: Fix microMIPS LL/SC immediate offsetsMaciej W. Rozycki
In the microMIPS encoding some memory access instructions have their immediate offset reduced to 12 bits only. That does not match the GCC `R' constraint we use in some places to satisfy the requirement, resulting in build failures like this: {standard input}: Assembler messages: {standard input}:720: Error: macro used $at after ".set noat" {standard input}:720: Warning: macro instruction expanded into multiple instructions Fix the problem by defining a macro, `GCC_OFF12_ASM', that expands to the right constraint depending on whether microMIPS or standard MIPS code is produced. Also apply the fix to where `m' is used as in the worst case this change does nothing, e.g. where the pointer was already in a register such as a function argument and no further offset was requested, and in the best case it avoids an extraneous sequence of up to two instructions to load the high 20 bits of the address in the LL/SC loop. This reduces the risk of lock contention that is the higher the more instructions there are in the critical section between LL and SC. Strictly speaking we could just bulk-replace `R' with `ZC' as the latter constraint adjusts automatically depending on the ISA selected. However it was only introduced with GCC 4.9 and we keep supporing older compilers for the standard MIPS configuration, hence the slightly more complicated approach I chose. The choice of a zero-argument function-like rather than an object-like macro was made so that it does not look like a function call taking the C expression used for the constraint as an argument. This is so as not to confuse the reader or formatting checkers like `checkpatch.pl' and follows previous practice. Signed-off-by: Maciej W. Rozycki <macro@codesourcery.com> Signed-off-by: Steven J.

2011-03-23bitops: remove minix bitops from asm/bitops.hAkinobu Mita
minix bit operations are only used by minix filesystem and useless by other modules. Because byte order of inode and block bitmaps is different on each architecture like below: m68k: big-endian 16bit indexed bitmaps h8300, microblaze, s390, sparc, m68knommu: big-endian 32 or 64bit indexed bitmaps m32r, mips, sh, xtensa: big-endian 32 or 64bit indexed bitmaps for big-endian mode little-endian bitmaps for little-endian mode Others: little-endian bitmaps In order to move minix bit operations from asm/bitops.h to architecture independent code in minix filesystem, this provides two config options. CONFIG_MINIX_FS_BIG_ENDIAN_16BIT_INDEXED is only selected by m68k. CONFIG_MINIX_FS_NATIVE_ENDIAN is selected by the architectures which use native byte order bitmaps (h8300, microblaze, s390, sparc, m68knommu, m32r, mips, sh, xtensa). The architectures which always use little-endian bitmaps do not select these options. Finally, we can remove minix bit operations from asm/bitops.h for all architectures.

2010-10-29MIPS: Get rid of branches to .subsections.Ralf Baechle
It was a nice optimization - on paper at least. In practice it results in branches that may exceed the maximum legal range for a branch. We can fight that problem with -ffunction-sections but -ffunction-sections again is incompatible with -pg used by the function tracer. By rewriting the loop around all simple LL/SC blocks to C we reduce the amount of inline assembler and at the same time allow GCC to often fill the branch delay slots with something sensible or whatever else clever optimization it may have up in its sleeve. With this optimization gone we also no longer need -ffunction-sections, so drop it. This optimization was originally introduced in 2.6.21, commit 5999eca25c1fd4b9b9aca7833b04d10fe4bc877d (linux-mips.org) rsp. f65e4fa8e0c6022ad58dc88d1b11b12589ed7f9f (kernel.org).

2009-09-17MIPS: Allow kernel use of LL/SC to be separate from the presence of LL/SC.David Daney
On some CPUs, it is more efficient to disable and enable interrupts in the kernel rather than use ll/sc for atomic operations. But if we were to set cpu_has_llsc to false, we would break the userspace futex interface (in asm/futex.h). We separate the two concepts, with a new predicate kernel_uses_llsc, that lets us disable the kernel's use of ll/sc while still allowing the futex code to use it. Also there were a couple of cases in bitops.h where we were using ll/sc unconditionally even if cpu_has_llsc were false.
