The tilegx PCI root complex support (currently only in linux-next)
is limited to pages that are homed on cached in the default manner,
i.e. "hash-for-home". This change supports delivery of I/O data to
pages that are cached in other ways (locally on a particular core,
uncached, user-managed incoherent, etc.).
A large part of the change is supporting flushing pages from cache
on particular homes so that we can transition the data that we are
delivering to or from the device appropriately. The new homecache_finv*
routines handle this.
Some changes to page_table_range_init() were also required to make
the fixmap code work correctly on tilegx; it hadn't been used there
before.
We also remove some stub mark_caches_evicted_*() routines that
were just no-ops anyway.

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.

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.)

In general we want to avoid ever touching memory while within an
interrupt critical section, since the page fault path goes through
a different path from the hypervisor when in an interrupt critical
section, and we carefully decided with tilegx that we didn't need
to support this path in the kernel. (On tilepro we did implement
that path as part of supporting atomic instructions in software.)
In practice we always need to touch the kernel stack, since that's
where we store the interrupt state before releasing the critical
section, but this change cleans up a few things. The IRQ_ENABLE
macro is split up so that when we want to enable interrupts in a
deferred way (e.g. for cpu_idle or for interrupt return) we can
read the per-cpu enable mask before entering the critical section.
The cache-migration code is changed to use interrupt masking instead
of interrupt critical sections. And, the interrupt-entry code is
changed so that we defer loading "tp" from per-cpu data until after
we have released the interrupt critical section.

We were re-homing the initial task's kernel stack on the boot cpu,
but in fact it's better to let it stay globally homed, since that
task isn't bound to the boot cpu anyway. This is more of a general
cleanup than an actual performance optimization, but it removes
code, which is a good thing. :-)

Previously we only handled kernels up to a single huge page in size.
Now we create additional PTEs appropriately.

The Tilera architecture traditionally supports 64KB page sizes
to improve TLB utilization and improve performance when the
hardware is being used primarily to run a single application.
For more generic server scenarios, it can be beneficial to run
with 4KB page sizes, so this commit allows that to be specified
(by modifying the arch/tile/include/hv/pagesize.h header).
As part of this change, we also re-worked the PTE management
slightly so that PTE writes all go through a __set_pte() function
where we can do some additional validation. The set_pte_order()
function was eliminated since the "order" argument wasn't being used.
One bug uncovered was in the PCI DMA code, which wasn't properly
flushing the specified range. This was benign with 64KB pages,
but with 4KB pages we were getting some larger flushes wrong.
The per-cpu memory reservation code also needed updating to
conform with the newer percpu stuff; before it always chose 64KB,
and that was always correct, but with 4KB granularity we now have
to pay closer attention and reserve the amount of memory that will
be requested when the percpu code starts allocating.

As the added comment says, we can sometimes see a coherence warning
from our simulator if the "swapper_pgprot" variable on the boot cpu
has not been evicted from cache by the time the other cpus come up.
Force it to be evicted so we never see the warning.

The convention changed to, e.g., ".data..page_aligned". This commit
fixes the places in the tile architecture that were still using the
old convention. One tile-specific section (.init.page) was dropped
in favor of just using an "aligned" attribute.
Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org> pointed out __PAGE_ALIGNED_BSS, etc.

For the "initfree" boot argument it's not that big a deal, but
to avoid warnings in the code, we check for a valid value before
allowing the specified argument to override the kernel default.

While not a port to KVM (yet), this change modifies the kernel
to be able to build either at PL1 or at PL2 with a suitable

This commit is primarily changes caused by reviewing "sparse"
and "checkpatch" output on our sources, so is somewhat noisy, since
things like "printk() -> pr_err()" (or whatever) throughout the
codebase tend to get tedious to read. Rather than trying to tease
apart precisely which things changed due to which type of code
review, this commit includes various cleanups in the code:
- sparse: Add declarations in headers for globals.
- sparse: Fix __user annotations.
- sparse: Using gfp_t consistently instead of int.
- sparse: removing functions not actually used.
- checkpatch: Clean up printk() warnings by using pr_info(), etc.;
also avoid partial-line printks except in bootup code.
- checkpatch: Use exposed structs rather than typedefs.
- checkpatch: Change some C99 comments to C89 comments.
In addition, a couple of minor other changes are rolled in
to this commit:
- Add support for a "raise" instruction to cause SIGFPE, etc., to be raised.
- Remove some compat code that is unnecessary when we fully eliminate
some of the deprecated syscalls from the generic syscall ABI.
- Update the tile_defconfig to reflect current config contents.

This change is the core kernel support for TILEPro and TILE64 chips.
No driver support (except the console driver) is included yet.
This includes the relevant Linux headers in asm/; the low-level
low-level "Tile architecture" headers in arch/, which are
shared with the hypervisor, etc., and are build-system agnostic;
and the relevant hypervisor headers in hv/.
