* tile: support multiple mPIPE shims in tilegx network driverChris Metcalf2013-08-011-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | The initial driver support was for a single mPIPE shim on the chip (as is the case for the Gx36 hardware). The Gx72 chip has two mPIPE shims, so we extend the driver to handle that case. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
* tile: support new Tilera hypervisorChris Metcalf2013-05-021-3/+24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The Tilera hypervisor shipped in releases up through MDE 4.1 launches the client operating system (i.e. Linux) at privilege level 1 (PL1). Starting with MDE 4.2, as part of the work to enable KVM, the Tilera hypervisor launches Linux at PL2 instead. This commit makes the KERNEL_PL option default to 2 for tilegx, while still saying at 1 for tilepro, which doesn't have an updated hypervisor. It also explains how and when you might want to choose another value. In addition, we change a small buglet in the on-chip Ethernet driver, where we were failing to use the KERNEL_PL constant in an API call. To make the transition cleaner, this change also provides the updated hv_init() API for the new hypervisor that supports announcing Linux's compiled-in PL, so the hypervisor can generate a suitable error in the case of a mismatched hypervisor and Linux binary.

* arch/tile: provide kernel support for the tilegx USB shimChris Metcalf2012-07-181-0/+39
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This change adds support for accessing the USB shim from within the kernel. Note that this change by itself does not allow the kernel to act as a host or as a device; it merely exposes the built-in on-chip hardware to the kernel. The <arch/usb_host.h> and <arch/usb_host_def.h> headers are empty at the moment because the kernel does not require any types or definitions specific to the tilegx USB shim; the generic USB core code is all we need. The headers are left in as stubs so that we don't need to modify the hypervisor header (drv_usb_host_intf.h) from upstream. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>
* arch/tile: provide kernel support for the tilegx TRIO shimChris Metcalf2012-07-111-0/+195
| | | | | | | | | | Provide kernel support for the tilegx "Transaction I/O" (TRIO) on-chip hardware. This hardware implements the PCIe interface for tilegx; the driver changes to use TRIO for PCIe are in a subsequent commit. The change is layered on top of the tilegx GXIO IORPC subsystem.

* arch/tile: provide kernel support for the tilegx mPIPE shimChris Metcalf2012-07-111-0/+602
| | | | | | | | | | | The TILE-Gx chip includes a packet-processing network engine called mPIPE ("Multicore Programmable Intelligent Packet Engine"). This change adds support for using the mPIPE engine from within the kernel. The engine has more functionality than is exposed here, but to keep the kernel code and binary simpler, this is a subset of the full API designed to enable standard Linux networking only.

* arch/tile: introduce GXIO IORPC framework for tilegxChris Metcalf2012-07-111-0/+714
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The GXIO I/O RPC subsystem handles exporting I/O hardware resources to Linux and to applications running under Linux. For instance, memory which is made available for I/O DMA must be mapped by an I/O TLB; that means that such memory must be locked down by Linux, so that it is not swapped or otherwise reused, as long as those I/O TLB entries are active. Similarly, configuring direct hardware access introduces new validation requirements. If a user application registers memory, Linux must ensure that the supplied virtual addresses are valid, and turn them into client physical addresses. Similarly, when Linux then supplies those client physical addresses to the Tilera hypervisor, it must in turn validate those before turning them into the real physical addresses which are required by the hardware. To the extent that these sorts of activities were required on previous TILE architecture processors, they were implemented in a device-specific fashion. This meant that every I/O device had its own Tilera hypervisor driver, its own Linux driver, and in some cases its own user-level library support. There was a large amount of more-or-less functionally identical code in different places, particularly in the different Linux drivers. For TILE-Gx, this support has been generalized into a common framework, known as the I/O RPC framework or just IORPC. The two "gxio" directories (one for headers, one for sources) start with just a few files in each with this infrastructure commit, but after adding support for the on-board I/O shims for networking, PCI, USB, crypto, compression, I2CS, etc., there end up being about 20 files in each directory. More information on the IORPC framework is in the <hv/iorpc.h> header, included in this commit. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>
* arch/tile: allow querying cpu module information from the hypervisorChris Metcalf2012-05-251-1/+13
| | | | | | | | | This just adds a few more attributes to the information Linux can query from the hypervisor for the /sys/hypervisor/board/ directory, providing part, serial#, revision#, and description for cpu modules (as opposed to the board itself, or any mezzanine boards).

* arch/tile: support multiple huge page sizes dynamicallyChris Metcalf2012-05-251-3/+67
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This change adds support for a new "super" bit in the PTE, using the new arch_make_huge_pte() method. The Tilera hypervisor sees the bit set at a given level of the page table and gangs together 4, 16, or 64 consecutive pages from that level of the hierarchy to create a larger TLB entry. One extra "super" page size can be specified at each of the three levels of the page table hierarchy on tilegx, using the "hugepagesz" argument on the boot command line. A new hypervisor API is added to allow Linux to tell the hypervisor how many PTEs to gang together at each level of the page table. To allow pre-allocating huge pages larger than the buddy allocator can handle, this change modifies the Tilera bootmem support to put all of memory on tilegx platforms into bootmem. As part of this change I eliminate the vestigial CONFIG_HIGHPTE support, which never worked anyway, and eliminate the hv_page_size() API in favor of the standard vma_kernel_pagesize() API.

* arch/tile: Allow tilegx to build with either 16K or 64K page sizeChris Metcalf2012-05-252-95/+121
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This change introduces new flags for the hv_install_context() API that passes a page table pointer to the hypervisor. Clients can explicitly request 4K, 16K, or 64K small pages when they install a new context. In practice, the page size is fixed at kernel compile time and the same size is always requested every time a new page table is installed. The <hv/hypervisor.h> header changes so that it provides more abstract macros for managing "page" things like PFNs and page tables. For example there is now a HV_DEFAULT_PAGE_SIZE_SMALL instead of the old HV_PAGE_SIZE_SMALL. The various PFN routines have been eliminated and only PA- or PTFN-based ones remain (since PTFNs are always expressed in fixed 2KB "page" size). The page-table management macros are renamed with a leading underscore and take page-size arguments with the presumption that clients will use those macros in some single place to provide the "real" macros they will use themselves. I happened to notice the old hv_set_caching() API was totally broken (it assumed 4KB pages) so I changed it so it would nominally work correctly with other page sizes. Tag modules with the page size so you can't load a module built with a conflicting page size. (And add a test for SMP while we're at it.) Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>

* arch/tile: allow building Linux with transparent huge pages enabledChris Metcalf2012-05-251-2/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The change adds some infrastructure for managing tile pmd's more generally, using pte_pmd() and pmd_pte() methods to translate pmd values to and from ptes, since on TILEPro a pmd is really just a nested structure holding a pgd (aka pte). Several existing pmd methods are moved into this framework, and a whole raft of additional pmd accessors are defined that are used by the transparent hugepage framework. The tile PTE now has a "client2" bit. The bit is used to indicate a transparent huge page is in the process of being split into subpages. This change also fixes a generic bug where the return value of the generic pmdp_splitting_flush() was incorrect. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>
* arch/tile: add hypervisor-based character driver for SPI flash ROMChris Metcalf2011-06-101-0/+41
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The first version of this patch proposed an arch/tile/drivers/ directory, but the consensus was that this was probably a poor choice for a place to group Tilera-specific drivers, and that in any case grouping by platform was discouraged, and grouping by function was preferred. This version of the patch addresses various issues raised in the community, primarily the absence of sysfs integration. The sysfs integration now handles passing information on sector size, page size, and total partition size to userspace as well. In addition, we now use a single "struct cdev" to manage all the partition minor devices, and dynamically discover the correct number of partitions from the hypervisor rather than using a module_param with a default value. This driver has no particular "peer" drivers it can be grouped with. It is sort of like an MTD driver for SPI ROM, but it doesn't group well with the other MTD devices since it relies on hypervisor virtualization to handle many of the irritating aspects of flash ROM management: sector awareness, background read for sub-sector writes, bit examination to determine whether a sector erase needs to be issued, etc. It is in fact more like an EEPROM driver, but the hypervisor virtualization does require a "flush" command if you wish to commit a sector write prior to writing to a different sector, and this is sufficiently different from generic I2C/SPI EEPROMs that as a result it doesn't group well with them either. The simple character device is already in use by a range of Tilera SPI ROM management tools, as well as by customers. In addition, using the simple character device actually simplifies the userspace tools, since they don't need to manage sector erase, background read, etc. This both simplifies the code (since we can uniformly manage plain files and the SPI ROM) as well as makes the user code portable to non-Linux platforms that don't offer the same MTD ioctls.

* arch/tile: kernel-related cleanups from removing static page sizeChris Metcalf2011-05-042-34/+10
| | | | | | | | | User space code has been able to discover the static page size by including a special <hv/pagesize.h> file. In the current release, that file is now gone, and <asm/page.h> doesn't rely on it. The getpagesize() API is now the only way for userspace to get the page size.

* arch/tile: fix __ndelay etc to work betterChris Metcalf2011-03-011-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The current implementations of __ndelay and __udelay call a hypervisor service to delay, but the hypervisor service isn't actually implemented very well, and the consensus is that Linux should handle figuring this out natively and not use a hypervisor service. By converting nanoseconds to cycles, and then spinning until the cycle counter reaches the desired cycle, we get several benefits: first, we are sensitive to the actual clock speed; second, we use less power by issuing a slow SPR read once every six cycles while we delay; and third, we properly handle the case of an interrupt by exiting at the target time rather than after some number of cycles.

* drivers/net/tile/: on-chip network drivers for the tile architectureChris Metcalf2010-11-244-0/+4012
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | This change adds the first network driver for the tile architecture, supporting the on-chip XGBE and GBE shims. The infrastructure is present for the TILE-Gx networking drivers (another three source files in the new directory) but for now the the actual tilegx sources are waiting on releasing hardware to initial customers. Note that arch/tile/include/hv/* are "upstream" headers from the Tilera hypervisor and will probably benefit less from LKML review. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>
