2015-08-20ARC: change some branchs to jumps to resolve linkage errorsYuriy Kolerov
When kernel's binary becomes large enough (32M and more) errors may occur during the final linkage stage. It happens because the build system uses short relocations for ARC by default. This problem may be easily resolved by passing -mlong-calls option to GCC to use long absolute jumps (j) instead of short relative branchs (b). But there are fragments of pure assembler code exist which use branchs in inappropriate places and cause a linkage error because of relocations overflow. First of these fragments is .fixup insertion in futex.h and unaligned.c. It inserts a code in the separate section (.fixup) with branch instruction. It leads to the linkage error when kernel becomes large. Second of these fragments is calling scheduler's functions (common kernel code) from entry.S of ARC's code. When kernel's binary becomes large it may lead to the linkage error because scheduler may occur far enough from ARC's code in the final binary.

2014-04-30ARC: !PREEMPT: Ensure Return to kernel mode is IRQ safeVineet Gupta
There was a very small race window where resume to kernel mode from a Exception Path (or pure kernel mode which is true for most of ARC exceptions anyways), was not disabling interrupts in restore_regs, clobbering the exception regs Anton found the culprit call flow (after many sleepless nights) | 1. we got a Trap from user land | 2. started to service it. | 3. While doing some stuff on user-land memory (I think it is padzero()), | we got a DataTlbMiss | 4. On return from it we are taking "resume_kernel_mode" path | 5. NEED_RESHED is not set, so we go to "return from exception" path in | restore regs. | 6. there seems to be IRQ happening Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com> Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> #3.10, 3.12, 3.13, 3.14 Cc: Anton Kolesov <Anton.Kolesov@synopsys.com> Cc: Francois Bedard <Francois.Bedard@synopsys.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2014-03-26ARC: switch to generic ENTRY/END assembler annotationsVineet Gupta
With commit 9df62f054406 "arch: use ASM_NL instead of ';'" the generic macros can handle the arch specific newline quirk. Hence we can get rid of ARC asm macros and use the "C" style macros. Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com>

2013-11-06ARC: Change calling convention of do_page_fault()Vineet Gupta
switch the args (address, pt_regs) to match with all the other "C" exception handlers. This removes the awkwardness in EV_ProtV for page fault vs. unaligned access. Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com>
2013-08-26ARC: Entry Handler tweaks: Optimize away redundant IRQ_DISABLE_SAVEVineet Gupta
In the exception return path, for both U/K cases, intr are already disabled (for various existing reasons). So when we drop down to @restore_regs, we need not redo that. There was subtle issue - when intr were NOT being disabled for ret-to-kernel-but-no-preemption case - now fixed by moving the IRQ_DISABLE further up in @resume_kernel_mode. So what do we gain: * Shaves off a few insn in return path. * Eliminates the need for IRQ_DISABLE_SAVE assembler macro for ARCv2 hence allows for entry code sharing.

2013-08-26ARC: Exception Handlers Code consolidationVineet Gupta
After the recent cleanups, all the exception handlers now have same boilerplate prologue code. Move that into common macro. This reduces readability but helps greatly with sharing / duplicating entry code with ARCv2 ISA where the handlers are pretty much the same, just the entry prologue is different (due to hardware assist). Also while at it, add the missing FAKE_RET_FROM_EXCPN calls in couple of places to drop down to pure kernel mode (from exception mode) before jumping off into "C" code.

2013-06-26ARC: Remove explicit passing around of ECRVineet Gupta

2013-06-26ARC: pt_regs update #5: Use real ECR for pt_regs->event vs. synth valuesVineet Gupta
pt_regs->event was set with artificial values to identify the low level system event (syscall trap / breakpoint trap / exceptions / interrupts) With r8 saving out of the way, the full word can be used to save real ECR (Exception Cause Register) which helps idenify the event naturally, including additional info such as cause code, param. Only for Interrupts, where ECR is not applicable, do we resort to synthetic non ECR values. SAVE_ALL_TRAP/EXCEPTIONS can now be merged as they both use ECR with different runtime values. The ptrace helpers now use the sub-fields of ECR to distinguish the events (e.g. vector 0x25 is trap, param 0 is syscall...) The following benefits will follow: (1) This centralizes the location of where ECR is saved and will allow the cleanup of task->thread.cause_code ECR placeholder which is set in non-uniform way. Then ARC VM code can safely rely on it being there for purpose of finer grained VM_EXEC dcache flush (based on exec fault: I-TLB Miss) (2) Further, ECR being passed around from low level handlers as arg can be eliminated as it is part of standard reg-file in pt_regs Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com>
2013-06-22ARC: pt_regs update #4: r25 saved/restored unconditionallyVineet Gupta
(This is a VERY IMP change for low level interrupt/exception handling) ----------------------------------------------------------------------- WHAT ----------------------------------------------------------------------- * User 25 now saved in pt_regs->user_r25 (vs. tsk->thread_info.user_r25) * This allows Low level interrupt code to unconditionally save r25 (vs. the prev version which would only do it for U->K transition). Ofcourse for nested interrupts, only the pt_regs->user_r25 of bottom-most frame is useful. * simplifies the interrupt prologue/epilogue * Needed for ARCv2 ISA code and done here to keep design similar with ARCompact event handling ----------------------------------------------------------------------- WHY ------------------------------------------------------------------------- With CONFIG_ARC_CURR_IN_REG, r25 is used to cache "current" task pointer in kernel mode. So when entering kernel mode from User Mode - user r25 is specially safe-kept (it being a callee reg is NOT part of pt_regs which are saved by default on each interrupt/trap/exception) - r25 loaded with current task pointer. Further, if interrupt was taken in kernel mode, this is skipped since we know that r25 already has valid "current" pointer. With 2 level of interrupts in ARCompact ISA, detecting this is difficult but still possible, since we could be in kernel mode but r25 not already saved (in fact the stack itself might not have been switched). A. User mode B. L1 IRQ taken C. L2 IRQ taken (while on 1st line of L1 ISR) So in #C, although in kernel mode, r25 not saved (infact SP not switched at all) Given that ARcompact has manual stack switching, we could use a bit of trickey - The low level code would make sure that SP is only set to kernel mode value at the very end (after saving r25). So a non kernel mode SP, even if in kernel mode, meant r25 was NOT saved. The same paradigm won't work in ARCv2 ISA since SP is auto-switched so it's setting can't be delayed/constrained.

2013-06-22ARC: [mm] Remove @write argument to do_page_fault()Vineet Gupta
This can be ascertained within do_page_fault() since it gets the full ECR (Exception Cause Register). Further, for both the callers of do_page_fault(): Prot-V / D-TLB-Miss, the cause sub-fields in ECR are same for same type of access, making the code much more simpler. D-TLB-Miss [LD] 0x00_21_01_00 Prot-V [LD] 0x00_23_01_00 ^^ D-TLB-Miss [ST] 0x00_21_02_00 Prot-V [ST] 0x00_23_02_00 ^^ D-TLB-Miss [EX] 0x00_21_03_00 Prot-V [EX] 0x00_23_03_00 ^^ This helps code consolidation, which is even better when moving code from assembler to "C".

2013-05-07ARC: unaligned access emulation broken if callee-reg dest of LD/STVineet Gupta

2013-03-20ARC: Fix the typo in event identifier flags used by ptraceVineet Gupta
orig_r8_IS_EXCPN and orig_r8_IS_BRKPT were same values due to a copy/paste error. Although it looks bad and is wrong, it really doesn't affect gdb working. orig_r8_IS_BRKPT is the one relevant to debugging (breakpoints), since it is used to provide EFA vs. ERET to a ptrace "stop_pc" request. So when gdb has inserted a breakpoint, orig_r8_IS_BRKPT is already set, and anything else (i.e. orig_r8_IS_EXCPN) becoming same as it, really doesn't hurt gdb. The corollary case, could be nasty but nobody uses the ptrace "stop_pc" request in that case Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com>

2013-02-15ARC: SMP supportVineet Gupta
ARC common code to enable a SMP system + ISS provided SMP extensions. ARC700 natively lacks SMP support, hence some of the core features are are only enabled if SoCs have the necessary h/w pixie-dust. This includes: -Inter Processor Interrupts (IPI) -Cache coherency -load-locked/store-conditional ... The low level exception handling would be completely broken in SMP because we don't have hardware assisted stack switching. Thus a fair bit of this code is repurposing the MMU_SCRATCH reg for event handler prologues to keep them re-entrant. Many thanks to Rajeshwar Ranga for his initial "major" contributions to SMP Port (back in 2008), and to Noam Camus and Gilad Ben-Yossef for help with resurrecting that in 3.2 kernel (2012). Note that this platform code is again singleton design pattern - so multiple SMP platforms won't build at the moment - this deficiency is addressed in subsequent patches within this series.

2013-02-15ARC: [Review] Preparing to fix incorrect syscall restarts due to signalsVineet Gupta
To avoid multiple syscall restarts (multiple signals) or no restart at all (sigreturn), we need just an extra bit of state "literally 1 bit" in struct pt_regs. orig_r8 is the best place to do this, however given the way it is encoded currently, we can't add anything simplistically. Current orig_r8: * syscalls -> 1 to NR_SYSCALLS * Exceptions -> NR_SYSCALLS + 1 * Break-point-> NR_SYSCALLS + 2 In new scheme it is a bit-field * lower short word contains the exact event type (and a new bit to represent restart semantics : if syscall was already / can't be restarted) * upper short word optionally containing the syscall num - needed by likes of tracehooks etc This patch only changes how orig_r8 is organised and nothing should change behaviourily.

This is to make sure that that a Tracer (if tracing related signal) is able to do likes of PEEKUSR(callee-reg). However in return path we were simply discarding the user-mode callee regs, which would break a POKEUSR(callee-reg) from a tracer. * Issue related to multiple syscall restarts are addressed in next patch Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com> Cc: Al Viro <viro@ZenIV.linux.org.uk> Acked-by: Jonas Bonn <jonas@southpole.se>
