MIPS: SMP: Move the AP sync point before the calibration delay

2025-05-25T13:00:23+00:00

In the calibration delay process, some resources are shared, so it's
better to move it after the parallel execution part. Thanks to the
patch optimizing CPU delay calibration, this change has no impact on
the boot time improvements gained from CPU parallel boot.

MIPS: SMP: Move the AP sync point before the non-parallel aware functions

2025-05-20T06:43:24+00:00

When CONFIG_HOTPLUG_PARALLEL is enabled, the code executing before
cpuhp_ap_sync_alive() is executed in parallel, while after it is
serialized. The functions set_cpu_sibling_map() and set_cpu_core_map()
were not designed to be executed in parallel, so by moving the
cpuhp_ap_sync_alive() before cpuhp_ap_sync_alive(), we then ensure
they will be called serialized.

The measurement done on EyeQ5 did not show any relevant boot time
increase after applying this patch.

MIPS: SMP: Implement parallel CPU bring up for EyeQ

2025-04-27T07:45:15+00:00

Added support for starting CPUs in parallel on EyeQ to speed up boot time.

On EyeQ5, booting 8 CPUs is now ~90ms faster.
On EyeQ6, booting 32 CPUs is now ~650ms faster.

smp: Mark smp_prepare_boot_cpu() __init

2024-09-08T14:01:10+00:00

smp_prepare_boot_cpu() is only called during boot, hence mark it as
__init.

MIPS: sync-r4k: Rework based on x86 tsc_sync

2024-07-03T14:50:12+00:00

The original sync-r4k did a good job on reducing jitter by determine
the "next time value", but it has a limitation that when synchronization
being performed too many times due to high core count or CPU hotplug,
the timewrap on CPU0 will become unaccpetable.

Rework the mechanism based on latest x86 tsc_sync. (It seems like
the original implementation is based on tsc_sync at that time,
so it's just a refresh.) To improve overall performance.

Tesed on Loongson64, Boston, QEMU.

Pull non-MM updates from Andrew Morton:
 "Quite a lot of kexec work this time around. Many singleton patches in
  many places. The notable patch series are:

   - nilfs2 folio conversion from Matthew Wilcox in 'nilfs2: Folio
     conversions for file paths'.

   - Additional nilfs2 folio conversion from Ryusuke Konishi in 'nilfs2:
     Folio conversions for directory paths'.

   - IA64 remnant removal in Heiko Carstens's 'Remove unused code after
     IA-64 removal'.

   - Arnd Bergmann has enabled the -Wmissing-prototypes warning
     everywhere in 'Treewide: enable -Wmissing-prototypes'. This had
     some followup fixes:

      - Nathan Chancellor has cleaned up the hexagon build in the series
        'hexagon: Fix up instances of -Wmissing-prototypes'.

      - Nathan also addressed some s390 warnings in 's390: A couple of
        fixes for -Wmissing-prototypes'.

      - Arnd Bergmann addresses the same warnings for MIPS in his series
        'mips: address -Wmissing-prototypes warnings'.

   - Baoquan He has made kexec_file operate in a top-down-fitting manner
     similar to kexec_load in the series 'kexec_file: Load kernel at top
     of system RAM if required'

   - Baoquan He has also added the self-explanatory 'kexec_file: print
     out debugging message if required'.

   - Some checkstack maintenance work from Tiezhu Yang in the series
     'Modify some code about checkstack'.

   - Douglas Anderson has disentangled the watchdog code's logging when
     multiple reports are occurring simultaneously. The series is
     'watchdog: Better handling of concurrent lockups'.

   - Yuntao Wang has contributed some maintenance work on the crash code
     in 'crash: Some cleanups and fixes'"

The function is unconditionally defined in smp.c but is conditionally
declared in a header that is not included here.

arch/mips/kernel/smp.c:473:5: error: no previous prototype for 'setup_profiling_timer' [-Werror=missing-prototypes]

mips/smp: Call rcutree_report_cpu_starting() earlier

2023-12-05T17:43:05+00:00

rcutree_report_cpu_starting() must be called before
clockevents_register_device() to avoid the following lockdep splat triggered by
calling list_add() when CONFIG_PROVE_RCU_LIST=y:

  WARNING: suspicious RCU usage
  ...
  -----------------------------
  kernel/locking/lockdep.c:3680 RCU-list traversed in non-reader section!!

  other info that might help us debug this:

  RCU used illegally from offline CPU!
  rcu_scheduler_active = 1, debug_locks = 1
  no locks held by swapper/1/0.
  ...
  Call Trace:
  [] show_stack+0x64/0x158

raw_smp_processor_id() is required in order to avoid calling into lockdep
before RCU has declared the CPU to be watched for readers.

MIPS: Rework smt cmdline parameters

2023-06-09T08:34:14+00:00

Provide a generic smt parameters interface aligned with s390
to allow users to limit smt usage and threads per core.

It replaced previous undocumented "nothreads" parameter for
smp-cps which is ambiguous and does not cover smp-mt.
