2011-09-29sparc64: Force the execute bit in OpenFirmware's translation entries.David S. Miller
In the OF 'translations' property, the template TTEs in the mappings never specify the executable bit. This is the case even though some of these mappings are for OF's code segment. Therefore, we need to force the execute bit on in every mapping. This problem can only really trigger on Niagara/sun4v machines and the history behind this is a little complicated. Previous to sun4v, the sun4u TTE entries lacked a hardware execute permission bit. So OF didn't have to ever worry about setting anything to handle executable pages. Any valid TTE loaded into the I-TLB would be respected by the chip. But sun4v Niagara chips have a real hardware enforced executable bit in their TTEs. So it has to be set or else the I-TLB throws an instruction access exception with type code 6 (protection violation). We've been extremely fortunate to not get bitten by this in the past. The best I can tell is that the OF's mappings for it's executable code were mapped using permanent locked mappings on sun4v in the past. Therefore, the fact that we didn't have the exec bit set in the OF translations we would use did not matter in practice. Thanks to Greg Onufer for helping me track this down. Signed-off-by: David S.

2011-09-21sparc: Make '-p' boot option meaningful again.David S. Miller
If "-p" is given on the command line, clear the CON_BOOT flag for the initial early boot PROM console. This is necessary to try and see crash messages that occur between the registry of the VT console and the probing of the first framebuffer or serial console. During this time no console messages are emitted because the VT console registry (even if no backend is registered to it) removes the early console if CON_BOOT is set. Signed-off-by: David S.

2011-08-29sparc32,sun4d: Change IPI IRQ level to prevent collision between IPI and ↵Kjetil Oftedal
timer interrupt On Sun4d systems running in SMP mode, IRQ 14 is used for timer interrupts and has a specialized interrupt handler. IPI is currently set to use IRQ 14 as well, which causes it to trigger the timer interrupt handler, and not the IPI interrupt handler. The IPI interrupt is therefore changed to IRQ 13, which is the highest normally handled interrupt. This IRQ is also used for SBUS interrupts, however there is nothing in the IPI/SBUS interrupt handlers that indicate that they will not handle sharing the interrupt. (IRQ 13 is indicated as audio interrupt, which is unlikely to be found in a sun4d system) Signed-off-by: Kjetil Oftedal <oftedal@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2011-08-20sparc: Allow handling signals when stack is corrupted.David S. Miller
If we can't push the pending register windows onto the user's stack, we disallow signal delivery even if the signal would be delivered on a valid seperate signal stack. Add a register window save area in the signal frame, and store any unsavable windows there. On sigreturn, if any windows are still queued up in the signal frame, try to push them back onto the stack and if that fails we kill the process immediately. This allows the debug/tst-longjmp_chk2 glibc test case to pass. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2011-08-15sparc32: unbreak arch_write_unlock()Mikael Pettersson
The sparc32 version of arch_write_unlock() is just a plain assignment. Unfortunately this allows the compiler to schedule side-effects in a protected region to occur after the HW-level unlock, which is broken. E.g., the following trivial test case gets miscompiled: #include <linux/spinlock.h> rwlock_t lock; int counter; void foo(void) { write_lock(&lock); ++counter; write_unlock(&lock); } Fixed by adding a compiler memory barrier to arch_write_unlock(). The sparc64 version combines the barrier and assignment into a single asm(), and implements the operation as a static inline, so that's what I did too.

2011-08-15sparc64: remove unnecessary macros from spinlock_64.hMikael Pettersson
The sparc64 spinlock_64.h contains a number of operations defined first as static inline functions, and then as macros with the same names and parameters as the functions. Maybe this was needed at some point in the past, but now nothing seems to depend on these macros (checked with a recursive grep looking for ifdefs on these names). Other archs don't define these identity-macros. So this patch deletes these unnecessary macros. Compile-tested with sparc64_defconfig.

2011-08-03Add Kconfig option ARCH_HAVE_NMI_SAFE_CMPXCHGHuang Ying
cmpxchg() is widely used by lockless code, including NMI-safe lockless code. But on some architectures, the cmpxchg() implementation is not NMI-safe, on these architectures the lockless code may need a spin_trylock_irqsave() based implementation. This patch adds a Kconfig option: ARCH_HAVE_NMI_SAFE_CMPXCHG, so that NMI-safe lockless code can depend on it or provide different implementation according to it. On many architectures, cmpxchg is only NMI-safe for several specific operand sizes. So, ARCH_HAVE_NMI_SAFE_CMPXCHG define in this patch only guarantees cmpxchg is NMI-safe for sizeof(unsigned long).

2011-07-28sparc: Sanitize cpu feature detection and reporting.David S. Miller
Instead of evaluating the cpu features for ELF_HWCAP every exec, calculate it once at boot time. Add AV_SPARC_* capability flag bits, compatible with what Solaris reports to applications. Report these capabilities once in the kernel log, and also via /proc/cpuinfo in a new "cpucaps" entry.

2011-07-27sparc: Detect and handle UltraSPARC-T3 cpu types.David S. Miller
The cpu compatible string we look for is "SPARC-T3". As far as memset/memcpy optimizations go, we treat this chip the same as Niagara-T2/T2+. Use cache initializing stores for memset, and use perfetch, FPU block loads, cache initializing stores, and block stores for copies. We use the Niagara-T2 perf support, since T3 is a close relative in this regard. Later we'll add support for the new events T3 can report, plus enable T3's new "sample" mode. For now I haven't added any new ELF hwcap flags. We probably need to add a couple, for example: T2 and T3 both support the population count instruction in hardware. T3 supports VIS3 instructions, including support (finally) for partitioned shift. One can also now move directly between float and integer registers. T3 supports instructions meant to help with Galois Field and other HPC calculations, such as XOR multiply. Also there are "OP and negate" instructions, for example "fnmul" which is multiply-and-negate. T3 recognizes the transactional memory opcodes, however since transactional memory isn't supported: 1) 'commit' behaves as a NOP and 2) 'chkpt' always branches 3) 'rdcps' returns all zeros and 4) 'wrcps' behaves as a NOP. So we'll need about 3 new elf capability flags in the end to represent all of these things. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
