parisc: Remove ordered stores from syscall.S

2018-08-24T11:07:16Z

commit 7797167ffde1f00446301cb22b37b7c03194cfaf upstream. Now that we use a sync prior to releasing the locks in syscall.S, we don't need the PA 2.0 ordered stores used to release some locks. Using an ordered store, potentially slows the release and subsequent code. There are a number of other ordered stores and loads that serve no purpose. I have converted these to normal stores.

parisc: Remove unnecessary barriers from spinlock.h

2018-08-24T11:07:15Z

commit 3b885ac1dc35b87a39ee176a6c7e2af9c789d8b8 upstream. Now that mb() is an instruction barrier, it will slow performance if we issue unnecessary barriers. The spinlock defines have a number of unnecessary barriers. The __ldcw() define is both a hardware and compiler barrier. The mb() barriers in the routines using __ldcw() serve no purpose. The only barrier needed is the one in arch_spin_unlock(). We need to ensure all accesses are complete prior to releasing the lock.

parisc: Define mb() and add memory barriers to assembler unlock sequences

2018-08-15T16:10:56Z

commit fedb8da96355f5f64353625bf96dc69423ad1826 upstream. For years I thought all parisc machines executed loads and stores in order. However, Jeff Law recently indicated on gcc-patches that this is not correct. There are various degrees of out-of-order execution all the way back to the PA7xxx processor series (hit-under-miss). The PA8xxx series has full out-of-order execution for both integer operations, and loads and stores. This is described in the following article: http://web.archive.org/web/20040214092531/http://www.cpus.hp.com/technical_references/advperf.shtml For this reason, we need to define mb() and to insert a memory barrier before the store unlocking spinlocks. This ensures that all memory accesses are complete prior to unlocking. The ldcw instruction performs the same function on entry.

parisc: Enable CONFIG_MLONGCALLS by default

2018-08-15T16:10:56Z

commit 66509a276c8c1d19ee3f661a41b418d101c57d29 upstream. Enable the -mlong-calls compiler option by default, because otherwise in most cases linking the vmlinux binary fails due to truncations of R_PARISC_PCREL22F relocations. This fixes building the 64-bit defconfig. Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org # 4.0+ Signed-off-by: Helge Deller Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

parisc: Move setup_profiling_timer() out of init section

2018-05-18T14:21:49Z

No other architecture has setup_profiling_timer() in the init section, thus on parisc we face this section mismatch warning: Reference from the function devm_device_add_group() to the function .init.text:setup_profiling_timer() Signed-off-by: Helge Deller

parisc: Move find_pa_parent_type() out of init section

2018-05-18T14:21:48Z

The 0-DAY kernel test infrastructure reported that inet_put_port() may reference the find_pa_parent_type() function, so it can't be moved into the init section. Fixes: b86db40e1ecc ("parisc: Move various functions and strings to init section") Signed-off-by: Helge Deller

parisc: Fix section mismatches

2018-05-02T19:47:35Z

Fix three section mismatches: 1) Section mismatch in reference from the function ioread8() to the function .init.text:pcibios_init_bridge() 2) Section mismatch in reference from the function free_initmem() to the function .init.text:map_pages() 3) Section mismatch in reference from the function ccio_ioc_init() to the function .init.text:count_parisc_driver() Signed-off-by: Helge Deller

parisc: drivers.c: Fix section mismatches

2018-05-02T19:47:27Z

Fix two section mismatches in drivers.c: 1) Section mismatch in reference from the function alloc_tree_node() to the function .init.text:create_tree_node(). 2) Section mismatch in reference from the function walk_native_bus() to the function .init.text:alloc_pa_dev(). Signed-off-by: Helge Deller

parisc: time: Convert read_persistent_clock() to read_persistent_clock64()

2018-04-20T18:18:21Z

The read_persistent_clock() uses a timespec, which is not year 2038 safe on 32bit systems. On parisc architecture, we have implemented generic RTC drivers that can be used to compensate the system suspend time, but the RTC time can not represent the nanosecond resolution, so this patch just converts to read_persistent_clock64() with timespec64.
