2016-10-04powerpc: Set default CPU type to POWER8 for little endian buildsAnton Blanchard1-0/+1
We supported POWER7 CPUs for bootstrapping little endian, but the target was always POWER8. Now that POWER7 specific issues are impacting performance, change the default target to POWER8. Signed-off-by: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org> Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>
2016-10-04powerpc: Only disable HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS on POWER7 little endianAnton Blanchard1-1/+1
POWER8 handles unaligned accesses in little endian mode, but commit 0b5e6661ac69 ("powerpc: Don't set HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS on little endian builds") disabled it for all. The issue with unaligned little endian accesses is specific to POWER7, so update the Kconfig check to match. Using the stat() testcase from commit a75c380c7129 ("powerpc: Enable DCACHE_WORD_ACCESS on ppc64le"), performance improves 15% on POWER8.

2016-10-04powerpc: Remove static branch prediction in atomic{, 64}_add_unlessAnton Blanchard1-2/+2
I see quite a lot of static branch mispredictions on a simple web serving workload. The issue is in __atomic_add_unless(), called from _atomic_dec_and_lock(). There is no obvious common case, so it is better to let the hardware predict the branch. Signed-off-by: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org> Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>
2016-10-04powerpc: During context switch, check before setting mm_cpumaskAnton Blanchard1-1/+2
During context switch, switch_mm() sets our current CPU in mm_cpumask. We can avoid this atomic sequence in most cases by checking before setting the bit. Testing on a POWER8 using our context switch microbenchmark: tools/testing/selftests/powerpc/benchmarks/context_switch \ --process --no-fp --no-altivec --no-vector Performance improves 2%.

2016-10-04powerpc/configs: Enable Intel i40e on 64 bit configsAnton Blanchard3-0/+3
We are starting to see i40e adapters in recent machines, so enable it in our configs. Signed-off-by: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org> Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>
2016-10-04powerpc/configs: Change a few things from built in to modulesAnton Blanchard3-21/+21
Change a few devices and filesystems that are seldom used any more from built in to modules. This reduces our vmlinux about 500kB. Signed-off-by: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org> Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>
2016-10-04powerpc/configs: Bump kernel ring buffer size on 64 bit configsAnton Blanchard3-0/+6
When we issue a system reset, every CPU in the box prints an Oops, including a backtrace. Each of these can be quite large (over 4kB) and we may end up wrapping the ring buffer and losing important information. Bump the base size from 128kB to 256kB and the per CPU size from 4kB to 8kB.

2016-10-04powerpc/configs: Enable VMX cryptoAnton Blanchard3-0/+6
We see big improvements with the VMX crypto functions (often 10x or more), so enable it as a module. Signed-off-by: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org> Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>
2016-10-04powerpc/64: Align hot loops of memset() and backwards_memcpy()Anton Blanchard1-0/+2
Align the hot loops in our assembly implementation of memset() and backwards_memcpy(). backwards_memcpy() is called from tcp_v4_rcv(), so we might want to optimise this a little more.

2016-10-04powerpc/64s: Remove unused exception code, small cleanupsNicholas Piggin1-10/+20
This was not done before the big patches because I only noticed them afterwards. It has become much easier to see which handlers are branched to from which exception vectors now, and to see exactly what vector space is being used for what.

2016-10-04powerpc/64s: Use a single macro for both parts of OOL exceptionNicholas Piggin1-37/+18
Simple substitution. This is possible now that both parts of the OOL initial handler get linked into their correct location. Signed-off-by: Nicholas Piggin <npiggin@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>
2016-10-04powerpc/64s: Move __replay_interrupt function below handlersNicholas Piggin1-38/+36
This is not an exception handler as such, it's called from local_irq_enable(), not exception entry. Also clean up some now redundant comments at the end of the consolidation series. Signed-off-by: Nicholas Piggin <npiggin@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>

2016-10-04powerpc: Use gas sections for arranging exception vectorsNicholas Piggin5-67/+404
Use assembler sections of fixed size and location to arrange the 64-bit Book3S exception vector code (64-bit Book3E also uses it in head_64.S for 0x0..0x100). This allows better flexibility in arranging exception code and hiding unimportant details behind macros. Gas sections can be a bit painful to use this way, mainly because the assembler does not know where they will be finally linked. Taking absolute addresses requires a bit of trickery for example, but it can be hidden behind macros for the most part. Generated code is mostly the same except locations, offsets, alignments. The "+ 0x2" is only required for the trap number / kvm exit number, which gets loaded as a constant into a register. Previously, code also used + 0x2 for label names, but we changed to using "H" to distinguish HV case for that. Remove the last vestiges of that. __after_prom_start is taking absolute address of a label in another fixed section. Newer toolchains seemed to compile this okay, but older ones do not. FIXED_SYMBOL_ABS_ADDR is more foolproof, it just takes an additional line to define. Signed-off-by: Nicholas Piggin <npiggin@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>
2016-10-04powerpc/64: Change the way relocation copy is calculatedNicholas Piggin1-4/+9
With a subsequent patch to put text into different sections, (_end - _stext) can no longer be computed at link time to determine the end of the copy. Instead, calculate it at runtime with (copy_to_here - _stext) + (_end - copy_to_here). Signed-off-by: Nicholas Piggin <npiggin@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>
