0c3beacf - asm-generic: introduce text-patching.h

Wed, 23 Oct 2024 16:27:06 +0000

asm-generic: introduce text-patching.hSeveral architectures support text patching, but they name the headerfiles that declare patching functions differently.Make all such headers consistently named text-patching.h and add an emptyheader in asm-generic for architectures that do not support text patching.Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20241023162711.2579610-4-rppt@kernel.orgSigned-off-by: Mike Rapoport (Microsoft) Reviewed-by: Christoph Hellwig Acked-by: Geert Uytterhoeven # m68kAcked-by: Arnd Bergmann Reviewed-by: Luis Chamberlain Tested-by: kdevops Cc: Andreas Larsson Cc: Andy Lutomirski Cc: Ard Biesheuvel Cc: Borislav Petkov (AMD) Cc: Brian Cain Cc: Catalin Marinas Cc: Christophe Leroy Cc: Dave Hansen Cc: Dinh Nguyen Cc: Guo Ren Cc: Helge Deller Cc: Huacai Chen Cc: Ingo Molnar Cc: Johannes Berg Cc: John Paul Adrian Glaubitz Cc: Kent Overstreet Cc: Liam R.

630f289b - asm-generic: make more kernel-space headers mandatory

Thu, 02 Apr 2020 04:03:12 +0000

asm-generic: make more kernel-space headers mandatoryChange a header to mandatory-y if both of the following are met:[1] At least one architecture (except um) specifies it as generic-y in arch/*/include/asm/Kbuild[2] Every architecture (except um) either has its own implementation (arch/*/include/asm/*.h) or specifies it as generic-y in arch/*/include/asm/KbuildThis commit was generated by the following shell script.----------------------------------->8-----------------------------------arches=$(cd arch; ls -1 | sed -e '/Kconfig/d' -e '/um/d')tmpfile=$(mktemp)grep "^mandatory-y +=" include/asm-generic/Kbuild > $tmpfilefind arch -path 'arch/*/include/asm/Kbuild' | xargs sed -n 's/^generic-y += $.*$/\1/p' | sort -u |while read headerdo mandatory=yes for arch in $arches do if ! grep -q "generic-y += $header" arch/$arch/include/asm/Kbuild && !

Fri, 22 Feb 2019 13:37:21 +0000

sh/mmiowb: Add unconditional mmiowb() to arch_spin_unlock()The mmiowb() macro is horribly difficult to use and drivers will continueto work most of the time if they omit a call when it is required.Rather than rely on driver authors getting this right, push mmiowb() intoarch_spin_unlock() for sh. If this is deemed to be a performance issue,a subsequent optimisation could make use of ARCH_HAS_MMIOWB to elidethe barrier in cases where no I/O writes were performed inside thecritical section.Cc: Yoshinori Sato Cc: Rich Felker Acked-by: Linus Torvalds Signed-off-by: Will Deacon List of files: /linux-6.15/arch/sh/include/asm/Kbuild

46ad0840 - locking/rwsem: Remove arch specific rwsem files

Fri, 22 Mar 2019 14:30:06 +0000

locking/rwsem: Remove arch specific rwsem filesAs the generic rwsem-xadd code is using the appropriate acquire andrelease versions of the atomic operations, the arch specific rwsem.hfiles will not be that much faster than the generic code as long as theatomic functions are properly implemented. So we can remove those archspecific rwsem.h and stop building asm/rwsem.h to reduce maintenanceeffort.Currently, only x86, alpha and ia64 have implemented architecturespecific fast paths. I don't have access to alpha and ia64 systems fortesting, but they are legacy systems that are not likely to be updatedto the latest kernel anyway.By using a rwsem microbenchmark, the total locking rates on a 4-socket56-core 112-thread x86-64 system before and after the patch were asfollows (mixed means equal # of read and write locks): Before Patch After Patch # of Threads wlock rlock mixed wlock rlock mixed ------------ ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- 1 29,201 30,143 29,458 28,615 30,172 29,201 2 6,807 13,299 1,171 7,725 15,025 1,804 4 6,504 12,755 1,520 7,127 14,286 1,345 8 6,762 13,412 764 6,826 13,652 726 16 6,693 15,408 662 6,599 15,938 626 32 6,145 15,286 496 5,549 15,487 511 64 5,812 15,495 60 5,858 15,572 60There were some run-to-run variations for the multi-thread tests. Forx86-64, using the generic C code fast path seems to be a little bitfaster than the assembly version with low lock contention. Looking atthe assembly version of the fast paths, there are assembly to/from Ccode wrappers that save and restore all the callee-clobbered registers(7 registers on x86-64). The assembly generated from the generic Ccode doesn't need to do that. That may explain the slight performancegain here.The generic asm rwsem.h can also be merged into kernel/locking/rwsem.hwith no code change as no other code other than those underkernel/locking needs to access the internal rwsem macros and functions.Signed-off-by: Waiman Long Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) Acked-by: Linus Torvalds Cc: Andrew Morton Cc: Arnd Bergmann Cc: Borislav Petkov Cc: Davidlohr Bueso Cc: H.

3d9683cf - KVM: export and iif KVM is supported

At least, [2] ishalf-baked.Nor do arch maintainers look like they care about this. For example,commit 0add53713b1c ("microblaze: Add missing kvm_para.h to Kbuild")exported to user-space in order to fix an in-kernelbuild error.We have two ways to make this consistent: [A] export both and for all architectures, irrespective of the KVM support [B] Match the header export of and to the KVM supportMy first attempt was [A] because the code looks cleaner, but Paolosuggested [B].So, this commit goes with [B].For most architectures, was moved to the kernel-space.I changed include/uapi/linux/Kbuild so that it checks generatedasm/kvm_para.h as well as check-in ones.After this commit, there will be two groups: [1] Both and are exported arm, arm64, mips, powerpc, s390, x86 [2] Neither nor is exported alpha, arc, c6x, csky, h8300, hexagon, ia64, m68k, microblaze, nds32, nios2, openrisc, parisc, riscv, sh, sparc, unicore32, xtensaSigned-off-by: Masahiro Yamada Acked-by: Cornelia Huck Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini List of files: /linux-6.15/arch/sh/include/asm/Kbuild

Mon, 26 Mar 2018 14:59:15 +0000

time: Add an asm-generic/compat.h fileWe have a couple of files that try to include asm/compat.h onarchitectures where this is available. Those should generally use thehigher-level linux/compat.h file, but that in turn fails to includeasm/compat.h when CONFIG_COMPAT is disabled, unless we can providethat header on all architectures.This adds the asm/compat.h for all remaining architectures tosimplify the dependencies.Architectures that are getting removed in linux-4.17 are not changedhere, to avoid needless conflicts with the removal patches. Thosearchitectures are broken by this patch, but we have already shownthat they have no users.Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann List of files: /linux-6.15/arch/sh/include/asm/Kbuild
