* Begin the MIPS_INTRNG support.adrian2016-02-111-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is a prelude to intr-ng support for MIPS boards that need it - notably the CI20 port from kan@ that's upcoming, but also work that Stanislav is doing for the Mediatek platforms. This is the initial platform dependent bits in include/intr.h, some #defines for the nexus code for the intrng initialisation/runtime bits, some changed naming (which I'll fix later to be the same, much like what I did for ARM intr-ng) in exception.S, and the first cut at a PIC. Stanislav and I refactored out the common code for intrng support, so the mips intrng definitions are quite small (sys/mips/include/intr.h.) This is all work done by kan@, which stanislav has been cherry picking into common code for his mediatek chipset work. Tested: * Carambola2 - no regressions (not intr-ng though!)

* Refactor timer management code with priority to one-shot operation mode.mav2010-09-131-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The main goal of this is to generate timer interrupts only when there is some work to do. When CPU is busy interrupts are generating at full rate of hz + stathz to fullfill scheduler and timekeeping requirements. But when CPU is idle, only minimum set of interrupts (down to 8 interrupts per second per CPU now), needed to handle scheduled callouts is executed. This allows significantly increase idle CPU sleep time, increasing effect of static power-saving technologies. Also it should reduce host CPU load on virtualized systems, when guest system is idle. There is set of tunables, also available as writable sysctls, allowing to control wanted event timer subsystem behavior: kern.eventtimer.timer - allows to choose event timer hardware to use. On x86 there is up to 4 different kinds of timers. Depending on whether chosen timer is per-CPU, behavior of other options slightly differs. kern.eventtimer.periodic - allows to choose periodic and one-shot operation mode. In periodic mode, current timer hardware taken as the only source of time for time events. This mode is quite alike to previous kernel behavior. One-shot mode instead uses currently selected time counter hardware to schedule all needed events one by one and program timer to generate interrupt exactly in specified time. Default value depends of chosen timer capabilities, but one-shot mode is preferred, until other is forced by user or hardware. kern.eventtimer.singlemul - in periodic mode specifies how much times higher timer frequency should be, to not strictly alias hardclock() and statclock() events. Default values are 2 and 4, but could be reduced to 1 if extra interrupts are unwanted. kern.eventtimer.idletick - makes each CPU to receive every timer interrupt independently of whether they busy or not. By default this options is disabled. If chosen timer is per-CPU and runs in periodic mode, this option has no effect - all interrupts are generating. As soon as this patch modifies cpu_idle() on some platforms, I have also refactored one on x86. Now it makes use of MONITOR/MWAIT instrunctions (if supported) under high sleep/wakeup rate, as fast alternative to other methods. It allows SMP scheduler to wake up sleeping CPUs much faster without using IPI, significantly increasing performance on some highly task-switching loads.

This will matter more in the future when we transition from cpumask_t to cpuset_t for CPU masks in which case building a CPU mask is more expensive.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | has proven to have a good effect when entering KDB by using a NMI, but it completely violates all the good rules about interrupts disabled while holding a spinlock in other occasions. This can be the cause of deadlocks on events where a normal IPI_STOP is expected. * Adds an new IPI called IPI_STOP_HARD on all the supported architectures. This IPI is responsible for sending a stop message among CPUs using a privileged channel when disponible. In other cases it just does match a normal IPI_STOP. Right now the IPI_STOP_HARD functionality uses a NMI on ia32 and amd64 architectures, while on the other has a normal IPI_STOP effect. It is responsibility of maintainers to eventually implement an hard stop when necessary and possible. * Use the new IPI facility in order to implement a new userend SMP kernel function called stop_cpus_hard(). That is specular to stop_cpu() but it does use the privileged channel for the stopping facility. * Let KDB use the newly introduced function stop_cpus_hard() and leave stop_cpus() for all the other cases * Disable interrupts on CPU0 when starting the process of APs suspension. * Style cleanup and comments adding This patch should fix the reboot/shutdown deadlocks many users are constantly reporting on mailing lists.

There presently is support for ADMtek ADM5120, A mips 4Kc in a malta board, the RB533 routerboard (based on IDT RC32434) and some preliminary support for sibtye/broadcom designs. Other hardware support will be forthcomcing. This port boots multiuser under gxemul emulating the malta board and also bootstraps on the hardware whose support is forthcoming... Oleksandr Tymoshenko, Wojciech Koszek, Warner Losh, Olivier Houchard, Randall Stewert and others that have contributed to the mips2 and/or mips2-jnpr perforce branches. Juniper contirbuted a generic mips port late in the life cycle of the misp2 branch. Warner Losh merged the mips2 and Juniper code bases, and others list above have worked for the past several months to get to multiuser. In addition, the mips2 work owe a debt to the trail blazing efforts of the original mips branch in perforce done by Juli Mallett.
