ARCv2: memset: don't prefetch for len == 0 which happens a alot

2023-08-17T19:40:26Z

This avoids potential "bleeding" when size == 0 as cache line would be dirtied (and possibly fetched from other cores) and due to the same reaons more optimal too. Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta

ARC: memset: fix build with L1_CACHE_SHIFT != 6

2019-04-08T15:41:44Z

In case of 'L1_CACHE_SHIFT != 6' we define dummy assembly macroses PREALLOC_INSTR and PREFETCHW_INSTR without arguments. However we pass arguments to them in code which cause build errors. Fix that. Signed-off-by: Eugeniy Paltsev Cc: [5.0] Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta

ARCv2: lib: memeset: fix doing prefetchw outside of buffer

2019-01-18T00:24:39Z

ARCv2 optimized memset uses PREFETCHW instruction for prefetching the next cache line but doesn't ensure that the line is not past the end of the buffer. PRETECHW changes the line ownership and marks it dirty, which can cause issues in SMP config when next line was already owned by other core. Fix the issue by avoiding the PREFETCHW Some more details: The current code has 3 logical loops (ignroing the unaligned part) (a) Big loop for doing aligned 64 bytes per iteration with PREALLOC (b) Loop for 32 x 2 bytes with PREFETCHW (c) any left over bytes loop (a) was already eliding the last 64 bytes, so PREALLOC was safe. The fix was removing PREFETCW from (b). Another potential issue (applicable to configs with 32 or 128 byte L1 cache line) is that PREALLOC assumes 64 byte cache line and may not do the right thing specially for 32b. While it would be easy to adapt, there are no known configs with those lie sizes, so for now, just compile out PREALLOC in such cases.

ARC: dw2 unwind: enable cfi pseudo ops in string lib

2016-09-30T21:48:22Z

This uses a new set of annoations viz. ENTRY_CFI/END_CFI to enabel cfi ops generation. Note that we didn't change the normal ENTRY/EXIT as we don't actually want unwind info in the trap/exception/interrutp handlers which use these, as unwinder then gets confused (it keeps recursing vs. stopping). Semantically these are leaf routines and unwinding should stop when it hits those routines.
