2008-05-08[POWERPC] spufs: don't requeue victim contex in find_victim if it's not in ↵Christoph Hellwig
spu_run We should not requeue the victim context in find_victim if the owner is not in spu_run. It's first not needed because leaving the context on the spu is an optimization and second is harmful because it means the owner could re-enter spu_run when the context is on the runqueue and trip the BUG_ON in __spu_update_sched_info.

2008-05-05[POWERPC] spufs: handle faults while the context switch pending flag is setLuke Browning
Currently, page fault handlers don't issue a mfc restart if the context switch pending flag is set, which can leave us with a hanging DMA after a context restore. This patch introduces fault pending flag that is set by the fault handler and read by the context switch code, so that the latter can add the restart bit at the right spot, after it has successfuly saved the state of the mfc control register.

2008-05-05[POWERPC] spufs: fix concurrent delivery of class 0 & 1 exceptionsLuke Browning
SPU class 0 & 1 exceptions may occur in parallel, so we may end up overwriting csa.dsisr.

2008-05-05[POWERPC] spufs: try to route SPU interrupts to local nodeLuke Browning
Currently, we re-route SPU interrupts to the current cpu, which may be on a remote node. In the case of time slicing, all spu interrupts will end up routed to the same cpu, where the spusched_tick occurs. This change routes mfc interrupts to the cpu where the controlling thread last ran, provided that cpu is on the same node as the spu (otherwise don't reroute interrupts). This should improve performance and provide a more predictable environment for processing spu exceptions. In the past we have seen concurrent delivery of spu exceptions to two cpus. This eliminates that concern. Signed-off-by: Luke Browning <lukebr@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Jeremy Kerr <jk@ozlabs.org>
2008-05-05[POWERPC] spufs: set SPU_CONTEXT_SWITCH_PENDING before synchronising SPU irqsLuke Browning
synchronize_irq() provides the serialization for SPU_CONTEXT_SWITCH_PENDING which is read with a simple load. This routine guarantees that the relevant interrupt handlers are not running, so that the next time they do run they will see the update memory value. This must be done correctly so that exception handling code does not restart the mfc in the middle of a context switch while we are trying to atomically stop it and save state.

2008-05-05[POWERPC] spufs: update master runcntl with context lock heldJeremy Kerr
Currently, we update the SPU master run control bit (ie, spu_enable_spu) in spufs_run_spu before we grab the context mutex. This can result in races with other processes accessing this context's resources. This change moves the spu_enable_spu to after we have acquired the context lock.

2008-05-05[POWERPC] spufs: fix post-stopped update of MFC_CNTL registerJeremy Kerr
We currently have two issues with the MFC save code: * save_mfc_decr doesn't handle a transition of 1 -> 0 of the Ds bit * The Q bit may be stale in the CSA This change fixes the first issue by clearing the relevant bits from the MFC_CNTL value in the CSA before or-ing in the updated status. Also, we add the Q bit to the updated status. Signed-off-by: Jeremy Kerr <jk@ozlabs.org>
2008-05-05[POWERPC] spufs: fix save of mfc_cntl registerJeremy Kerr
Currently, we can introduce invalid entries into the MFC queues: 1) context starts a DMA 2) context gets scheduled out during a DMA - kernel saves MFC queue to CSA - kernel saves 0x0 in csa->mfc_control_RW 3) context gets scheduled in - csa->mfc_control[Q] ('queues empty') isn't set, so DMA queues are restored from the CSA 4) context's DMA is completed 5) context gets scheduled out again, no DMA occuring this time - kernel sees that MFC_CNTL[Q] ('queues empty') is set, so doesn't touch saved queue data in CSA - kernel saves 0x0 in csa->mfc_control_RW 6) context gets scheduled in - csa->mfc_control[Q] ('queues empty') isn't set (we saved is as 0!), so DMA queues are restored from the CSA In this last restore, we've restored the queue status from step 2, which are now invalid. This change makes save_mfc_cntl() closer to the save/restore sequence, as specified in the CBE handbook. With changes from Luke Browning. Signed-off-by: Jeremy Kerr <jk@ozlabs.org>

2008-03-28[POWERPC] spufs: fix incorrect file descriptors in SPU coredump note namesGerhard Stenzel
At present, ppu-gdb can't trace spu infomation with coredump generated by the kernel. While the core dumps notes have correct contents, they have the wrong names, as the file descriptors used to generate the note names are off-by-one. An application that opens a SPE context as fd 3, the current core dump code will generate notes like: SPU/4/mem SPU/4/regs etc. This confuses GDB, which knows it is looking for SPE context 3 (from parsing the spu_context_run system call arguments), and cannot find any notes that match context 3. This change corrects the file descriptor counting, to only increment the fd until after we've written the note name.

2008-03-28[POWERPC] spufs: save MFC command channel before purging MFC queueJeremy Kerr

2008-03-28[POWERPC] spufs: reacquire LS pointer in spu_process_callbackJeremy Kerr
During spu_process callback, we release then acquire the SPU, but keep a pointer to the local store memory. Since the context may have been scheduled out during the callback, the ls pointer may become invalid. This change reacquires the pointer to the context local store after spu_acquire()-ing, so that it isn't invalidated by a context switch. Signed-off-by: Jeremy Kerr <jk@ozlabs.org>

2008-03-11[POWERPC] spufs: fix rescheduling of non-runnable contextsJeremy Kerr
At present, we can hit the BUG_ON in __spu_update_sched_info by reading the regs file of a context between two calls to spu_run. The spu_release_saved called by spufs_regs_read() is resulting in the (now non-runnable) context being placed back on the run queue, so the next call to spu_run ends up in the bug condition. This change uses the SPU_SCHED_SPU_RUN flag to only reschedule a context if it's still in spu_run(). Signed-off-by: Jeremy Kerr <jk@ozlabs.org>
2008-03-11[POWERPC] spufs: don't (ab)use SCHED_IDLEJeremy Kerr

2008-02-29[POWERPC] spufs: synchronize IRQ when disablingArnd Bergmann
There is a small race between the context save procedure and the SPU interrupt handling, where we expect all interrupt processing to have finished after disabling them, while an interrupt is still being processed on another CPU. The obvious fix is to call synchronize_irq() after disabling the interrupts at the start of the context save procedure to make sure we never access the SPU any more during an ongoing save or even after that.

2008-02-29[POWERPC] spufs: fix order of sputrace thread IDsJeremy Kerr
Currently, we get the following output from sputrace: [5.097935954] 1606: spufs_ps_nopfn__enter (thread = 1605, spu = -1) [5.097958164] 1606: spufs_ps_nopfn__insert (thread = 1605, spu = 15) [5.097973529] 1607: spufs_ps_nopfn__enter (thread = 1605, spu = -1) [5.097989174] 1607: spufs_ps_nopfn__insert (thread = 1605, spu = 14) Which leads me to believe that 160[67] is the current thread ID, and 1605 is the context backing the psmap. However, the 'current' and 'owner' tids are reversed - the 'current' tid is on the right. This change puts the current thread ID in the left-hand column instead, and renames the right to 'ctxthread'.

2008-02-28[POWERPC] spufs: fix invalid scheduling of forgotten contextsJeremy Kerr
At present, we have a situation where a context with no owner is re-scheduled by spu_forget: Thread 1: reading regs file Thread 2: context owner spu_forget() - ctx->owner = NULL - set SPU_SCHED_WAS_ACTIVE spu_acquire_saved() - context is in saved state spu_release_saved() - SPU_SCHED_WAS_ACTIVE is set, so spu_activate() the context, which now has no owner In spu_forget(), we shouldn't be requesting a re-schedule by setting SPU_SCHED_WAS_ACTIVE. This change removes the set_bit in spu_forget(), so that spu_release_saved() doesn't reinsert this destroyed context on to the run queue. Signed-off-by: Jeremy Kerr <jk@ozlabs.org>
2008-02-27[POWERPC] spufs: fix context destruction during psmap faultJeremy Kerr
We have a small window where a spu context may be destroyed while we're servicing a page fault (from another thread) to the context's problem state mapping. After we up_read() the mmap_sem, it's possible that the context is destroyed by its owning thread, and so the later references to ctx are invalid. This can maifest as a deadlock on the (now free()-ed) context state mutex. This change adds a reference to the context before we release the mmap_sem, so that the context cannot be destroyed.

This was resulting in suprious returns from these functions, as they may be legitimately called when we have this bit set. We only use it in these two sanity checks, so this change removes the flag completely. This fixes hangs in the page-fault path of SPE apps.

2008-02-19[POWERPC] spufs: fix scheduler starvation by idle contextsJeremy Kerr
2.6.25 has a regression where we can starve the scheduler by creating (N_SPES+1) contexts, then running them one at a time. The final context will never be run, as the other contexts are loaded on the SPEs, none of which are repoted as free (ie, spu->alloc_state != SPU_FREE), so spu_get_idle() doesn't give us a spu to run on. Because all of the contexts are stopped, none are descheduled by the scheduler tick, as spusched_tick returns if spu_stopped(ctx). This change replaces the spu_stopped() check with checking for SCHED_IDLE in ctx->policy. We set a context's policy to SCHED_IDLE when we're not in spu_run(). We also favour SCHED_IDLE contexts when looking for contexts to unbind, but leave their timeslice intact for later resumption.

2008-02-13Linux Kernel Markers: support multiple probesMathieu Desnoyers
RCU style multiple probes support for the Linux Kernel Markers. Common case (one probe) is still fast and does not require dynamic allocation or a supplementary pointer dereference on the fast path. - Move preempt disable from the marker site to the callback. Since we now have an internal callback, move the preempt disable/enable to the callback instead of the marker site. Since the callback change is done asynchronously (passing from a handler that supports arguments to a handler that does not setup the arguments is no arguments are passed), we can safely update it even if it is outside the preempt disable section. - Move probe arm to probe connection. Now, a connected probe is automatically armed. Remove MARK_MAX_FORMAT_LEN, unused. This patch modifies the Linux Kernel Markers API : it removes the probe "arm/disarm" and changes the probe function prototype : it now expects a va_list * instead of a "...". If we want to have more than one probe connected to a marker at a given time (LTTng, or blktrace, ssytemtap) then we need this patch. Without it, connecting a second probe handler to a marker will fail. It allow us, for instance, to do interesting combinations : Do standard tracing with LTTng and, eventually, to compute statistics with SystemTAP, or to have a special trigger on an event that would call a systemtap script which would stop flight recorder tracing.

2008-02-08libfs: allow error return from simple attributesChristoph Hellwig
Sometimes simple attributes might need to return an error, e.g. for acquiring a mutex interruptibly. In fact we have that situation in spufs already which is the original user of the simple attributes. This patch merged the temporarily forked attributes in spufs back into the main ones and allows to return errors.

2008-02-08[POWERPC] spufs: Fix timing dependent false return from spufs_run_spuLuke Browning
Stop bits are only valid when the running bit is not set. Status bits carry over from one invocation of spufs_run_spu() to another, so the RUNNING bit gets added to the previous state of the register which may have been a remote library call. In this case, it looks like another library routine should be invoked, but the spe is actually running. This fixes a problem with a testcase that exercises the scheduler.
