The SmartMIPS ASE specifies how Read Inhibit (RI) and eXecute Inhibit
(XI) bits in the page tables work. The upper two bits of EntryLo{0,1}
are RI and XI when the feature is enabled in the PageGrain register.
SmartMIPS only covers 32-bit systems. Cavium Octeon+ extends this to
64-bit systems by continuing to place the RI and XI bits in the top of
EntryLo even when EntryLo is 64-bits wide.
Because we need to carry the RI and XI bits in the PTE, the layout of
the PTE is changed. There is a two instruction overhead in the TLB
refill hot path to get the EntryLo bits into the proper position.
Also the TLB load exception has to probe the TLB to check if RI or XI
caused the exception.
Also of note is that the layout of the PTE bits is done at compile and
runtime rather than statically. In the 32-bit case this allows for
the same number of PFN bits as before the patch as the _PAGE_HUGE is
not supported in 32-bit kernels (we have _PAGE_NO_EXEC and
_PAGE_NO_READ instead of _PAGE_READ and _PAGE_HUGE).
The patch is tested on Cavium Octeon+, but should also work on 32-bit
systems with the Smart-MIPS ASE.

In the old source code, I have let halt and poweroff do the same action,
but in reality, they have different meanings.
As the manpage of shutdown shows:
-r Reboot after shutdown.
-H Halt action is to halt or drop into boot monitor on systems that support it.
-P Halt action is to turn off the power.
and in the real world, some machines(e.g. NAS) did not provide a power
button and the shutdown works as reset, so, we need to provide a
mechanism to let the users turn off the power safely without breaking
the system, such a mechanism is "halt", which only put the system into a
dead loop or a power-save mode and print some information to the screen
to tell the users to turn off the power safely.
$ shutdown -hH now /* loongson_halt, not turn off the power */
$ shutdown -hP now /* loongson_poweroff, work as poweroff */

In order to achieve correct synchronization semantics, the Octeon port
had defined CONFIG_WEAK_REORDERING_BEYOND_LLSC. This resulted in code
that looks like:
sync
ll ...
.
.
.
sc ...
.
.
sync
The second SYNC was redundant, but harmless.
Octeon has a SYNCW instruction that acts as a write-memory-barrier
(due to an erratum in some parts two SYNCW are used). It is much
faster than SYNC because it imposes ordering on the writes, but
doesn't otherwise stall the execution pipeline. On Octeon, SYNC
stalls execution until all preceeding writes are committed to the
coherent memory system.
Using:
syncw;syncw
ll
.
.
.
sc
.
.
Has identical semantics to the first sequence, but is much faster.
The SYNCW orders the writes, and the SC will not complete successfully
until the write is committed to the coherent memory system. So at the
end all preceeding writes have been committed. Since Octeon does not
do speculative reads, this functions as a full barrier.
The patch removes CONFIG_WEAK_REORDERING_BEYOND_LLSC, and substitutes
SYNCW for SYNC in write-memory-barriers.

is only correct if running in an LPAR. On acquiring a spinlock, if the
cpu holding the lock is scheduled by the hypervisor, we do a busy wait
on the lock. If it is not scheduled, we yield over to that cpu.

To fetch a pending channel report word (crw) we use a kernel
thread which triggers stcrw and sleeps on a semaphore. The s390
machine check handler uses crw_handle_channel_report to handle
one crw if needed.
This patch replaces the semaphore with a waitqueue (to block the
kernel thread) and an atomic_t (to count the number of pending
requests).
By this we achieve the ability to force this thread to check for
a pending crw (independent on when it is triggered by the machine
check handler) and wait for this action to finish.

pxa_camera init() callback is sometimes abused to setup MFP for PXA CIF, or
even to request GPIOs to be used by the camera *sensor*. These initializations
can be performed statically in machine init functions.
The current semantics for this init() callback is ambiguous anyways, it is
invoked in pxa_camera_activate(), hence at device node open, but its users use
it like a generic initialization to be done at module init time (configure
MFP, request GPIOs for *sensor* control).

IBS selects an op (execution operation) for sampling by counting
either cycles or dispatched ops. Better statistical samples can be
produced by adding a software generated random offset to the periodic
op counter value with each sample.
This patch adds software randomization to the IBS periodic op
counter. The lower 12 bits of the 20 bit counter are
randomized. IbsOpCurCnt is initialized with a 12 bit random value.
There is a work around if the hw can not write to IbsOpCurCnt. Then
the lower 8 bits of the 16 bit IbsOpMaxCnt [15:0] value are randomized
in the range of -128 to +127 by adding/subtracting an offset to the
maximum count (IbsOpMaxCnt).
The linear feedback shift register (LFSR) algorithm is used for
pseudo-random number generation to have low impact to the memory
system.
Signed-off-by: Robert Richter <robert.richter@amd.com>
This patch implements a linear feedback shift register (LFSR) for
pseudo-random number generation for IBS.
For IBS measurements it would be good to minimize memory traffic in
the interrupt handler since every access pollutes the data
caches. Computing a maximal period LFSR just needs shifts and ORs.
The LFSR method is good enough to randomize the ops at low
overhead. 16 pseudo-random bits are enough for the implementation and
it doesn't matter that the pattern repeats with a fairly short
cycle. It only needs to break up (hard) periodic sampling behavior.
The logic was designed by Paul Drongowski.

This patch adds IBS feature detection using cpuid flags. An IBS
capability mask is introduced to test for certain IBS features. The
bit mask is the same as for IBS cpuid feature flags (Fn8000_001B_EAX),
but bit 0 is used to indicate the existence of IBS.
The patch also changes the handling of the IbsOpCntCtl bit (periodic
op counter count control). The oprofilefs file for this feature
(ibs_op/dispatched_ops) will be only exposed if the feature is
available, also the default for the bit is set to count clock cycles.
In general, the userland can detect the availability of a feature by
checking for the corresponding file in oprofilefs. If it exists, the
feature also exists. This may lead to a dynamic file layout depending
on the cpu type with that the userland has to deal with. Current
opcontrol is compatible.

Standard AMD systems have the same number of nodes as there are
northbridge devices. However, there may kernel configurations
(especially for 32 bit) or system setups exist, where the node number
is different or it can not be detected properly. Thus the check is not

better to remove the check.

This patch adds correct AMD NorthBridge event scheduling.
NB events are events measuring L3 cache, Hypertransport traffic. They are
identified by an event code >= 0xe0. They measure events on the
Northbride which is shared by all cores on a package. NB events are
counted on a shared set of counters. When a NB event is programmed in a
counter, the data actually comes from a shared counter. Thus, access to
those counters needs to be synchronized.
We implement the synchronization such that no two cores can be measuring
NB events using the same counters. Thus, we maintain a per-NB allocation
table. The available slot is propagated using the event_constraint
structure.

In certain situations, the kernel may need to stop and start the same
event rapidly. The current PMU callbacks do not distinguish between stop
and release (i.e., stop + free the resource). Thus, a counter may be
released, then it will be immediately re-acquired. Event scheduling will
again take place with no guarantee to assign the same counter. On some
processors, this may event yield to failure to assign the event back due
to competion between cores.
This patch is adding a new pair of callback to stop and restart a counter
without actually release the underlying counter resource. On stop, the
counter is stopped, its values saved and that's it. On start, the value
is reloaded and counter is restarted (on x86, actual restart is delayed
until perf_enable()).
