From 7deb18dcf0478940ac979de002db1ed8ba6531dc Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Masami Hiramatsu Date: Fri, 3 Dec 2010 18:54:22 +0900 Subject: x86: Introduce text_poke_smp_batch() for batch-code modifying Introduce text_poke_smp_batch(). This function modifies several text areas with one stop_machine() on SMP. Because calling stop_machine() is heavy task, it is better to aggregate text_poke requests. ( Note: I've talked with Rusty about this interface, and he would not like to expand stop_machine() interface, since it is not for generic use. ) Signed-off-by: Masami Hiramatsu Acked-by: Steven Rostedt Cc: Rusty Russell Cc: Frederic Weisbecker Cc: Ananth N Mavinakayanahalli Cc: Jason Baron Cc: Mathieu Desnoyers Cc: Jan Beulich Cc: 2nddept-manager@sdl.hitachi.co.jp LKML-Reference: <20101203095422.2961.51217.stgit@ltc236.sdl.hitachi.co.jp> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar --- arch/x86/kernel/alternative.c | 49 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++-------- 1 file changed, 40 insertions(+), 9 deletions(-) (limited to 'arch/x86/kernel/alternative.c') diff --git a/arch/x86/kernel/alternative.c b/arch/x86/kernel/alternative.c index 5079f24c955..553d0b0d639 100644 --- a/arch/x86/kernel/alternative.c +++ b/arch/x86/kernel/alternative.c @@ -591,17 +591,21 @@ static atomic_t stop_machine_first; static int wrote_text; struct text_poke_params { - void *addr; - const void *opcode; - size_t len; + struct text_poke_param *params; + int nparams; }; static int __kprobes stop_machine_text_poke(void *data) { struct text_poke_params *tpp = data; + struct text_poke_param *p; + int i; if (atomic_dec_and_test(&stop_machine_first)) { - text_poke(tpp->addr, tpp->opcode, tpp->len); + for (i = 0; i < tpp->nparams; i++) { + p = &tpp->params[i]; + text_poke(p->addr, p->opcode, p->len); + } smp_wmb(); /* Make sure other cpus see that this has run */ wrote_text = 1; } else { @@ -610,8 +614,12 @@ static int __kprobes stop_machine_text_poke(void *data) smp_mb(); /* Load wrote_text before following execution */ } - flush_icache_range((unsigned long)tpp->addr, - (unsigned long)tpp->addr + tpp->len); + for (i = 0; i < tpp->nparams; i++) { + p = &tpp->params[i]; + flush_icache_range((unsigned long)p->addr, + (unsigned long)p->addr + p->len); + } + return 0; } @@ -631,10 +639,13 @@ static int __kprobes stop_machine_text_poke(void *data) void *__kprobes text_poke_smp(void *addr, const void *opcode, size_t len) { struct text_poke_params tpp; + struct text_poke_param p; - tpp.addr = addr; - tpp.opcode = opcode; - tpp.len = len; + p.addr = addr; + p.opcode = opcode; + p.len = len; + tpp.params = &p; + tpp.nparams = 1; atomic_set(&stop_machine_first, 1); wrote_text = 0; /* Use __stop_machine() because the caller already got online_cpus. */ @@ -642,6 +653,26 @@ void *__kprobes text_poke_smp(void *addr, const void *opcode, size_t len) return addr; } +/** + * text_poke_smp_batch - Update instructions on a live kernel on SMP + * @params: an array of text_poke parameters + * @n: the number of elements in params. + * + * Modify multi-byte instruction by using stop_machine() on SMP.
