* [PATCH] spufs: enable SPE problem state MMIO access.Mark Nutter2006-03-276-12/+255
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch is layered on top of CONFIG_SPARSEMEM and is patterned after direct mapping of LS. This patch allows mmap() of the following regions: "mfc", which represents the area from [0x3000 - 0x3fff]; "cntl", which represents the area from [0x4000 - 0x4fff]; "signal1" which begins at offset 0x14000; "signal2" which begins at offset 0x1c000. The signal1 & signal2 files may be mmap()'d by regular user processes. The cntl and mfc file, on the other hand, may only be accessed if the owning process has CAP_SYS_RAWIO, because they have the potential to confuse the kernel with regard to parallel access to the same files with regular file operations: the kernel always holds a spinlock when accessing registers in these areas to serialize them, which can not be guaranteed with user mmaps, Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd.bergmann@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
* [PATCH] spufs: implement mfc access for PPE-side DMAArnd Bergmann2006-03-278-5/+430
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* [PATCH] spufs: allow SPU code to do syscallsArnd Bergmann2006-03-273-2/+444
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | An SPU does not have a way to implement system calls itself, but it can create intercepts to the kernel. This patch uses the method defined by the JSRE interface for C99 host library calls from an SPU to implement Linux system calls. It uses the reserved SPU stop code 0x2104 for this, using the structure layout and syscall numbers for ppc64-linux. I'm still undecided wether it is better to have a list of allowed syscalls or a list of forbidden syscalls, since we can't allow an SPU to call all syscalls that are defined for ppc64-linux. This patch implements the easier choice of them, with a blacklist that only prevents an SPU from calling anything that interacts with its own execution, e.g fork, execve, clone, vfork, exit, spu_run and spu_create and everything that deals with signals.

* [PATCH] powerpc: declare arch syscalls in <asm/syscalls.h>Arnd Bergmann2006-03-275-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | powerpc currently declares some of its own system calls in <asm/unistd.h>, but not all of them. That place also contains remainders of the now almost unused kernel syscall hack. - Add a new <asm/syscalls.h> with clean declarations - Include that file from every source that implements one of these - Get rid of old declarations in <asm/unistd.h> This patch is required as a base for implementing system calls from an SPU, but also makes sense as a general cleanup.

* [PATCH] powerpc: work around a cell interrupt HW bugArnd Bergmann2006-03-271-1/+18

* [PATCH] powerpc: cell interrupt controller updatesJens Osterkamp2006-03-273-55/+169
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The current interrupt controller setup on Cell is done in a rather ad-hoc way with device tree properties that are not standardized at all. In an attempt to do something that follows the OF standard (or at least the IBM extensions to it) more closely, we have now come up with this patch. It still provides a fallback to the old behaviour when we find older firmware, that hack can not be removed until the existing customer installations have upgraded.

* [PATCH] bitops: ia64: make partial_page.bitmap an unsigned longAkinobu Mita2006-03-261-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | The find_*_bit() routines are defined to work on a pointer to unsigned long. But partial_page.bitmap is unsigned int and it is passed to find_*_bit() in arch/ia64/ia32/sys_ia32.c. So the compiler will print warnings. This patch changes to unsigned long instead.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In normal operation, kretprobe makes a target function return to trampoline code. A kprobe (called trampoline_probe) has been inserted in the trampoline code. When the kernel hits this kprobe, it calls kretprobe's handler and it returns to the original return address. Kretprobe-booster removes the trampoline_probe. It allows the trampoline code to call kretprobe's handler directly instead of invoking kprobe.

When the kernel hits the probe point, kprobe handler is invoked. And the copied instruction is single-step executed on the copied buffer (not on the original address) by kprobe. After that, the kprobe checks registers and modify it (if need) as if the instructions was executed on the original address. My proposal is based on the fact there are many instructions which do NOT require the register modification after the single-step execution. When the copied instruction is a kind of them, kprobe just jumps back to the next instruction after single-step execution. If so, why don't we execute those instructions directly? With kprobe-booster patch, kprobes will execute a copied instruction directly and (if need) jump back to original code. This direct execution is executed when the kprobe don't have both post_handler and break_handler, and the copied instruction can be executed directly. I sorted instructions which can be executed directly or not; - Call instructions are NG(can not be executed directly). We should correct the return address pushed into top of stack. - Indirect instructions except for absolute indirect-jumps are NG. Those instructions changes EIP randomly. We should check EIP and correct it. - Instructions that change EIP beyond the range of the instruction buffer are NG. - Instructions that change EIP to tail 5 bytes of the instruction buffer (it is the size of a jump instruction). We must write a jump instruction which backs to original kernel code in the instruction buffer. - Break point instruction is NG. We should not touch EIP and pass to other handlers. - Absolute direct/indirect jumps are OK.- Conditional Jumps are NG. - Halt and software-interruptions are NG. Because it will stay on the instruction buffer of kprobes. - Prefixes are NG. - Unknown/reserved opcode is NG. - Other 1 byte instructions are OK. But those instructions need a jump back code. - 2 bytes instructions are mapped sparsely. So, in this release, this patch don't boost those instructions. >From Intel's IA-32 opcode map described in IA-32 Intel Architecture Software Developer's Manual Vol.2 B, I determined that following opcodes are not boostable. - 0FH (2byte escape) - 70H - 7FH (Jump on condition) - 9AH (Call) and 9CH (Pushf) - C0H-C1H (Grp 2: includes reserved opcode) - C6H-C7H (Grp11: includes reserved opcode) - CCH-CEH (Software-interrupt) - D0H-D3H (Grp2: includes reserved opcode) - D6H (Reserved) - D8H-DFH (Coprocessor) - E0H-E3H (loop/conditional jump) - E8H (Call) - F0H-F3H (Prefixes and reserved) - F4H (Halt) - F6H-F7H (Grp3: includes reserved opcode) - FEH-FFH(Grp4,5: includes reserved opcode) Kprobe-booster checks whether target instruction can be boosted (can be executed directly) at arch_copy_kprobe() function. If the target instruction can be boosted, it clears "boostable" flag. If not, it sets "boostable" flag -1. This is disabled status. In resume_execution() function, If "boostable" flag is cleared, kprobe-booster measures the size of the target instruction and sets "boostable" flag 1. In kprobe_handler(), kprobe checks the "boostable" flag. If the flag is 1, it resets current kprobe and executes instruction buffer directly instead of single stepping. When unregistering a boosted kprobe, it calls synchronize_sched() after "int3" is removed. So we can ensure followings after the synchronize_sched() called. - interrupt handlers are finished on all CPUs. - instruction buffer is not executed on all CPUs. And we can release the boosted kprobe safely. And also, on preemptible kernel, the booster is not enabled where the kernel preemption is enabled. So, there are no preempted threads on the instruction buffer. The description of kretprobe-booster: ==================================== In the normal operation, kretprobe make a target function return to trampoline code. And a kprobe (called trampoline_probe) have been inserted at the trampoline code. When the kernel hits this kprobe, it calls kretprobe's handler and it returns to original return address. Kretprobe-booster patch removes the trampoline_probe. It allows the trampoline code to call kretprobe's handler directly instead of invoking kprobe. And tranpoline code returns to original return address. This new trampoline code stores and restores registers, so the kretprobe handler is still able to access those registers. Current kprobe has about 1.3 usec/probe(*) overhead, and kprobe-booster patch reduces it to 0.6 usec/probe(*). Also current kretprobe has about 2.0 usec/probe(*) overhead. Kprobe-booster patch reduces it to 1.3 usec/probe(*), and the combination of both kprobe-booster patch and kretprobe-booster patch reduces it to 0.9 usec/probe(*). I expect the combination of both patches can reduce half of a probing overhead. Performance numbers strongly depend on the processor model.

The problem is how to remove the copied instructions of the kprobe *safely* on the preemptable kernel (CONFIG_PREEMPT=y). Kprobes basically executes the following actions; (1)int3 (2)preempt_disable() (3)kprobe_prehandler() (4)copied instructioin(single step) (5)kprobe_posthandler() (6)preempt_enable() (7)return to the original code During the execution of copied instruction, preemption is disabled (from step (2) to (6)). When unregistering the probes, Kprobe waits for RCU quiescent state by using synchronize_sched() after removing int3 instruction. Thus we can ensure the copied instruction is not executed. On the other hand, kprobe-booster executes the following actions; (1)int3 (2)preempt_disable() (3)kprobe_prehandler() (4)preempt_enable() <-- this one is added by my patch (5)copied instruction(direct execution) (6)jmp back to the original code The problem is that we have no way to prevent preemption on step (5) or (6). We cannot call preempt_disable() after step (6), because there are no rooms to do that. Thus, some other processes may be preempted at step(5) or (6) on preemptable kernel. And I couldn't find the easy way to ensure that other processes' stack do *not* have the address of them. (I thought some way to do that, but those are very costly.) So currently, I simply boost the kprobe only when the probe point is already preemption disabled. > Also, the patch adds a preempt_enable() but I don't see a corresponding > preempt_disable(). Am I missing something? It is corresponding to the preempt_disable() in the top of kprobe_handler(). I copied the code of kprobe_handler() here: static int __kprobes kprobe_handler(struct pt_regs *regs) { struct kprobe *p; int ret = 0; kprobe_opcode_t *addr = NULL; unsigned long *lp; struct kprobe_ctlblk *kcb; /* * We don't want to be preempted for the entire * duration of kprobe processing */ preempt_disable(); <-- HERE kcb = get_kprobe_ctlblk(); Signed-off-by: Masami Hiramatsu <hiramatu@sdl.hitachi.co.jp> Cc: Prasanna S Panchamukhi <prasanna@in.ibm.com> Cc: Ananth N Mavinakayanahalli <ananth@in.ibm.com> Cc: Anil S Keshavamurthy <anil.s.keshavamurthy@intel.com> Cc: David S.
