In clock sched we now have three loads:
- Function pointer
- quotient for multiplication
- offset
However, it is possible to improve performance substantially, by
guaranteeing that all three loads are from the same cacheline.
By moving these three values first in sparc64_tick_ops, and by having
tick_operations 64-byte aligned we guarantee this.

When an ldc control-only packet is received during data exchange in
read_nonraw(), a new rx head is calculated but the rx queue head is not
actually advanced (rx_set_head() is not called) and a branch is taken to
'no_data' at which point two things can happen depending on the value
of the newly calculated rx head and the current rx tail:
- If the rx queue is determined to be not empty, then the wrong packet
is picked up.
- If the rx queue is determined to be empty, then a read error (EAGAIN)
is eventually returned since it is falsely assumed that more data was
expected.
The fix is to update the rx head and return in case of a control only
packet during data exchange.

When a TSB grows beyond its current capacity, a new TSB is allocated
and copy_tsb is called to copy entries from the old TSB to the new.
A hash shift based on page size is used to calculate the index of an
entry in the TSB. copy_tsb has hard coded PAGE_SHIFT in these
calculations. However, for huge page TSBs the value REAL_HPAGE_SHIFT
should be used. As a result, when copy_tsb is called for a huge page
TSB the entries are placed at the incorrect index in the newly
allocated TSB. When doing hardware table walk, the MMU does not
match these entries and we end up in the TSB miss handling code.
This code will then create and write an entry to the correct index
in the TSB. We take a performance hit for the table walk miss and
recreation of these entries.
Pass a new parameter to copy_tsb that is the page size shift to be
used when copying the TSB.

Linux SPARC64 limits NR_CPUS to 4064 because init_cpu_send_mondo_info()
only allocates a single page for NR_CPUS mondo entries. Thus we cannot
use all 4096 CPUs on some SPARC platforms.
To fix, allocate (2^order) pages where order is set according to the size
of cpu_list for possible cpus. Since cpu_list_pa and cpu_mondo_block_pa
are not used in asm code, there are no imm13 offsets from the base PA
that will break because they can only reach one page.

The mmustat_enable sysfs file accessor functions must run code on the
target CPU. This is achieved by temporarily setting the affinity of the
calling user space thread to the requested CPU and reset it to the original
affinity afterwards.
That's racy vs. concurrent affinity settings for that thread resulting in
code executing on the wrong CPU and overwriting the new affinity setting.
Replace it by using work_on_cpu() which guarantees to run the code on the
requested CPU.
Protection against CPU hotplug is not required as the open sysfs file
already prevents the removal from the CPU offline callback. Using the
hotplug protected version would actually be wrong because it would deadlock
against a CPU hotplug operation of the CPU associated to the sysfs file in
progress.

In preparation for making the clockevents core NTP correction aware,
all clockevent device drivers must set ->min_delta_ticks and
->max_delta_ticks rather than ->min_delta_ns and ->max_delta_ns: a
clockevent device's rate is going to change dynamically and thus, the
ratio of ns to ticks ceases to stay invariant.
Make the sparc arch's clockevent drivers initialize these fields properly.
This patch alone doesn't introduce any change in functionality as the
clockevents core still looks exclusively at the (untouched) ->min_delta_ns
and ->max_delta_ns. As soon as this has changed, a followup patch will
purge the initialization of ->min_delta_ns and ->max_delta_ns from these
drivers.

"This series is the collection of fixes I proposed on this topic, that

The issue can leak kernel stack, but doesn't appear to allow userspace

h8300, metag, mips and sparc.
[ Mark Salter points out that c6x has no MMU or other mechanism to
prevent userspace access to kernel code or data on c6x, but it
doesn't hurt to clean that case up too. ]
The bugs arise from use of user_regset_copyin(). Users of
user_regset_copyin() can work in one of two ways:
1) Copy directly to thread_struct or equivalent. (This seems to be
the design assumption of the regset API, and is the most common
approach.)
2) Copy to a local variable and then transfer to thread_struct. (A
significant minority of cases.)
Buggy code typically involves approach 2"

Avoid un-intended DCTI Couples. Use of DCTI couples is deprecated.
Also address the "Programming Note" for optimal performance.
Here is the complete text from Oracle SPARC Architecture Specs.
6.3.4.7 DCTI Couples
"A delayed control transfer instruction (DCTI) in the delay slot of
another DCTI is referred to as a “DCTI couple”. The use of DCTI couples
is deprecated in the Oracle SPARC Architecture; no new software should
place a DCTI in the delay slot of another DCTI, because on future Oracle
SPARC Architecture implementations DCTI couples may execute either
slowly or differently than the programmer assumes it will.
SPARC V8 and SPARC V9 Compatibility Note
The SPARC V8 architecture left behavior undefined for a DCTI couple. The
SPARC V9 architecture defined behavior in that case, but as of
UltraSPARC Architecture 2005, use of DCTI couples was deprecated.
Software should not expect high performance from DCTI couples, and
performance of DCTI couples should be expected to decline further in
future processors.
Programming Note
As noted in TABLE 6-5 on page 115, an annulled branch-always
(branch-always with a = 1) instruction is not architecturally a DCTI.
However, since not all implementations make that distinction, for
optimal performance, a DCTI should not be placed in the instruction word
immediately following an annulled branch-always instruction (BA,A or
BPA,A)."

Update code that relied on sched.h including various MM types for them.
This will allow us to remove the <linux/mm_types.h> include from <linux/sched.h>.

So the original intention of tsk_cpus_allowed() was to 'future-proof'
the field - but it's pretty ineffectual at that, because half of
the code uses ->cpus_allowed directly ...
Also, the wrapper makes the code longer than the original expression!
So just get rid of it. This also shrinks <linux/sched.h> a bit.

Apart from adding the helper function itself, the rest of the kernel is
converted mechanically using:
git grep -l 'atomic_inc.*mm_count' | xargs sed -i 's/atomic_inc(&\(.*\)->mm_count);/mmgrab\(\1\);/'
git grep -l 'atomic_inc.*mm_count' | xargs sed -i 's/atomic_inc(&\(.*\)\.mm_count);/mmgrab\(\&\1\);/'
This is needed for a later patch that hooks into the helper, but might
be a worthwhile cleanup on its own.

Bart Van Assche noted that the ib DMA mapping code was significantly
similar enough to the core DMA mapping code that with a few changes
it was possible to remove the IB DMA mapping code entirely and
switch the RDMA stack to use the core DMA mapping code. This resulted
in a nice set of cleanups, but touched the entire tree. This branch
will be submitted separately to Linus at the end of the merge window
as per normal practice for tree wide changes like this.

Add support for using multiple hugepage sizes simultaneously
on mainline. Currently, support for 256M has been added which
can be used along with 8M pages.
Page tables are set like this (e.g. for 256M page):
VA + (8M * x) -> PA + (8M * x) (sz bit = 256M) where x in [0, 31]
and TSB is set similarly:
VA + (4M * x) -> PA + (4M * x) (sz bit = 256M) where x in [0, 63]
- Testing
Tested on Sonoma (which supports 256M pages) by running stream
benchmark instances in parallel: one instance uses 8M pages and
another uses 256M pages, consuming 48G each.
Boot params used:
default_hugepagesz=256M hugepagesz=256M hugepages=300 hugepagesz=8M
hugepages=10000
