d6ad39bc53 [POWERPC] spufs: rework class 0 and 1 interrupt handling
Based on original patches from
 Arnd Bergmann <arnd.bergman@de.ibm.com>; and
 Luke Browning <lukebr@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

Currently, spu contexts need to be loaded to the SPU in order to take
class 0 and class 1 exceptions.

This change makes the actual interrupt-handlers much simpler (ie,
set the exception information in the context save area), and defers the
handling code to the spufs_handle_class[01] functions, called from
spufs_run_spu.

This should improve the concurrency of the spu scheduling leading to
greater SPU utilization when SPUs are overcommited.

7cd58e4381 [POWERPC] spufs: move fault, lscsa_alloc and switch code to spufs module
Currently, part of the spufs code (switch.o, lscsa_alloc.o and fault.o)
is compiled directly into the kernel.

This change moves these components of spufs into the kernel.

The lscsa and switch objects are fairly straightforward to move in.

For the fault.o module, we split the fault-handling code into two
parts: a/p/p/c/spu_fault.c and a/p/p/c/spufs/fault.c. The former is for
the in-kernel spu_handle_mm_fault function, and we move the rest of the
fault-handling code into spufs.

684bd61401 [POWERPC] cell: handle SPE kernel mappings that cross segment boundaries
Currently, we have a possibilty that the SLBs setup during context
switch don't cover the entirety of the necessary lscsa and code
regions, if these regions cross a segment boundary.

This change checks the start and end of each region, and inserts a SLB
entry for each, if unique. We also remove the assumption that the
spu_save_code and spu_restore_code reside in the same segment, by using
the specific code array for save and restore.

58bd403c3c [POWERPC] cell: handle kernel SLB setup in spu_base.c
Currently, the SPU context switch code (spufs/switch.c) sets up the
SPU's SLBs directly, which requires some low-level mm stuff.

This change moves the kernel SLB setup to spu_base.c, by exposing
a function spu_setup_kernel_slbs() to do this setup. This allows us
to remove the low-level mm code from switch.c, making it possible
to later move switch.c to the spufs module.

Also, add a struct spu_slb for the cases where we need to deal with
SLB entries.

1189be6508 [POWERPC] Use 1TB segments
This makes the kernel use 1TB segments for all kernel mappings and for
user addresses of 1TB and above, on machines which support them
(currently POWER5+, POWER6 and PA6T).

We detect that the machine supports 1TB segments by looking at the
ibm,processor-segment-sizes property in the device tree.

We don't currently use 1TB segments for user addresses < 1T, since
that would effectively prevent 32-bit processes from using huge pages
unless we also had a way to revert to using 256MB segments.  That
would be possible but would involve extra complications (such as
keeping track of which segment size was used when HPTEs were inserted)
and is not addressed here.

Parts of this patch were originally written by Ben Herrenschmidt.

57dace2391 [POWERPC] spufs: make spu page faults not block scheduling
Until now, we have always entered the spu page fault handler
with a mutex for the spu context held. This has multiple
bad side-effects:
- it becomes impossible to suspend the context during
  page faults
- if an spu program attempts to access its own mmio
  areas through DMA, we get an immediate livelock when
  the nopage function tries to acquire the same mutex

This patch makes the page fault logic operate on a
struct spu_context instead of a struct spu, and moves it
from spu_base.c to a new file fault.c inside of spufs.

We now also need to copy the dar and dsisr contents
of the last fault into the saved context to have it
accessible in case we schedule out the context before
activating the page fault handler.

94b2a4393c [POWERPC] Fix spu SLB invalidations
The SPU code doesn't properly invalidate SPUs SLBs when necessary,
for example when changing a segment size from the hugetlbfs code. In
addition, it saves and restores the SLB content on context switches
which makes it harder to properly handle those invalidations.

This patch removes the saving & restoring for now, something more
efficient might be found later on. It also adds a spu_flush_all_slbs(mm)
that can be used by the core mm code to flush the SLBs of all SPEs that
are running a given mm at the time of the flush.

In order to do that, it adds a spinlock to the list of all SPEs and move
some bits & pieces from spufs to spu_base.c

24f43b33f7 [POWERPC] spufs: wrap mfc sdr access
SPRN_SDR1 and the SPE's MFC SDR are hypervisor resources and
are not accessible from a logical partition.  This change adds an
access wrapper.

When running on bare H/W, the spufs needs to only set the SPE's MFC SDR
to the value of the PPE's SPRN_SDR1 once at SPE initialization, so this
change renames mfc_sdr_set() to mfc_sdr_setup() and moves the
access of SPRN_SDR1 into the mmio wrapper.  It also removes the now
unneeded member mfc_sdr_RW from struct spu_priv1_collapsed.

28347bce8a [POWERPC] spufs: fix context switch during page fault
For better explanation, I break down the page fault handling into steps:

1) There is a page fault caused by DMA operation initiated by SPU and
DMA is suspended.

2) The interrupt handler 'spu_irq_class_1()/__spu_trap_data_map()' is
called and it just wakes up the sleeping spe-manager thread.

3) by PPE scheduler, the corresponding bottom half,
spu_irq_class_1_bottom() is called in process context and DMA is
restarted.

There can be a quite large time gap between 2) and 3) and I found
the following problem:

Between 2) and 3) If the context becomes unbound, 3) is not executed
because when the spe-manager thread is awaken, the context is already
saved. (This situation can happen, for example, when a high priority spe
thread newly started in that time gap)

But the actual problem is that the corresponding SPU context does not
work even if it is bound again to a SPU.

Besides I can see the following warning in mambo simulator when the
context becomes
unbound(in save_mfc_cmd()), i.e. when unbind() is called for the
context after step 2) before 3) :

'WARNING: 61392752237: SPE2: MFC_CMD_QUEUE channel count of 15 is
inconsistent with number of available DMA queue entries of 16'

After I go through available documents, I found that the problem is
because the suspended DMA is not restarted when it is bound again.

910ab66b1c [POWERPC] spufs: fix MFC command queue purge
In the context save/restore code, the SPU MFC command queue purge
code has a bug:

static inline void wait_purge_complete(struct spu_state *csa, struct
				       spu *spu)
{
    struct spu_priv2 __iomem *priv2 = spu->priv2;

    /* Save, Step 28:
     *     Poll MFC_CNTL[Ps] until value '11' is

     */
    POLL_WHILE_FALSE(in_be64(&priv2->mfc_control_RW)
		     & MFC_CNTL_PURGE_DMA_COMPLETE);
}

This will exit as soon as _one_ of the 2 bits that compose
MFC_CNTL_PURGE_DMA_COMPLETE is set, and one of them happens to be
"purge in progress"...  which means that we'll happily continue
restoring the MFC while it's being purged at the same time.

a33a7d7309 [PATCH] spufs: implement mfc access for PPE-side DMA
This patch adds a new file called 'mfc' to each spufs directory.
The file accepts DMA commands that are a subset of what would
be legal DMA commands for problem state register access. Upon
reading the file, a bitmask is returned with the completed
tag groups set.

The file is meant to be used from an abstraction in libspe
that is added by a different patch.

From the kernel perspective, this means a process can now
offload a memory copy from or into an SPE local store
without having to run code on the SPE itself.

The transfer will only be performed while the SPE is owned
by one thread that is waiting in the spu_run system call
and the data will be transferred into that thread's
address space, independent of which thread started the
transfer.

f0831acc4b [PATCH] spufs: abstract priv1 register access.
In a hypervisor based setup, direct access to the first
priviledged register space can typically not be allowed
to the kernel and has to be implemented through hypervisor
calls.

As suggested by Masato Noguchi, let's abstract the register
access trough a number of function calls. Since there is
currently no public specification of actual hypervisor
calls to implement this, I only provide a place that
makes it easier to hook into.

8837d9216f [PATCH] spufs: clean up use of bitops
checking bits manually might not be synchonized with
the use of set_bit/clear_bit. Make sure we always use
the correct bitops by removing the unnecessary
identifiers.

3a843d7cd3 [PATCH] spufs: fix mailbox polling
Handling mailbox interrupts was broken in multiple respects,
the combination of which was hiding the bugs most of the time.

- The ibox interrupt mask was open initially even though there
  are no waiters on a newly created SPU.

- Acknowledging the mailbox interrupt did not work because
  it is level triggered and the mailbox data is never retrieved
  from inside the interrupt handler.

- The interrupt handler delivered interrupts with a disabled
  mask if another interrupt is triggered for the same class
  but a different mask.

- The poll function did not enable the interrupt if it had not
  been enabled, so we might run into the poll timeout if none of
  the other bugs saved us and no signal was delivered.

We probably still have a similar problem with blocking
read/write on mailbox files, but that will result in extra
wakeup in the worst case, not in incorrect behaviour.

8b3d6663c6 [PATCH] spufs: cooperative scheduler support
This adds a scheduler for SPUs to make it possible to use
more logical SPUs than physical ones are present in the
system.

Currently, there is no support for preempting a running
SPU thread, they have to leave the SPU by either triggering
an event on the SPU that causes it to return to the
owning thread or by sending a signal to it.

This patch also adds operations that enable accessing an SPU
in either runnable or saved state. We use an RW semaphore
to protect the state of the SPU from changing underneath
us, while we are holding it readable. In order to change
the state, it is acquired writeable and a context save
or restore is executed before downgrading the semaphore
to read-only.

5473af049d [PATCH] spufs: switchable spu contexts
Add some infrastructure for saving and restoring the context of an
SPE. This patch creates a new structure that can hold the whole
state of a physical SPE in memory. It also contains code that
avoids races during the context switch and the binary code that
is loaded to the SPU in order to access its registers.

The actual PPE- and SPE-side context switch code are two separate
patches.
