powerpc/vdso: Prepare for switching VDSO to generic C implementation.
Prepare for switching VDSO to generic C implementation in following
patch. Here, we:
- Prepare the helpers to call the C VDSO functions
- Prepare the required callbacks for the C VDSO functions
- Prepare the clocksource.h files to define VDSO_ARCH_CLOCKMODES
- Add the C trampolines to the generic C VDSO functions
powerpc is a bit special for VDSO as well as system calls in the
way that it requires setting CR SO bit which cannot be done in C.
Therefore, entry/exit needs to be performed in ASM.
Implementing __arch_get_vdso_data() would clobber the link register,
requiring the caller to save it. As the ASM calling function already
has to set a stack frame and saves the link register before calling
the C vdso function, retriving the vdso data pointer there is lighter.
Implement __arch_vdso_capable() and always return true.
Provide vdso_shift_ns(), as the generic x >> s gives the following
bad result:
18: 35 25 ff e0 addic. r9,r5,-32
1c: 41 80 00 10 blt 2c <shift+0x14>
20: 7c 64 4c 30 srw r4,r3,r9
24: 38 60 00 00 li r3,0
...
2c: 54 69 08 3c rlwinm r9,r3,1,0,30
30: 21 45 00 1f subfic r10,r5,31
34: 7c 84 2c 30 srw r4,r4,r5
38: 7d 29 50 30 slw r9,r9,r10
3c: 7c 63 2c 30 srw r3,r3,r5
40: 7d 24 23 78 or r4,r9,r4
In our case the shift is always <= 32. In addition, the upper 32 bits
of the result are likely nul. Lets GCC know it, it also optimises the
following calculations.
With the patch, we get:
0: 21 25 00 20 subfic r9,r5,32
4: 7c 69 48 30 slw r9,r3,r9
8: 7c 84 2c 30 srw r4,r4,r5
c: 7d 24 23 78 or r4,r9,r4
10: 7c 63 2c 30 srw r3,r3,r5
