tile/time: Migrate to new 'set-state' interface

2015-07-30T16:32:15Z

Migrate tile driver to the new 'set-state' interface provided by clockevents core, the earlier 'set-mode' interface is marked obsolete now. This also enables us to implement callbacks for new states of clockevent devices, for example: ONESHOT_STOPPED. Cc: Chris Metcalf Signed-off-by: Viresh Kumar Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf

time: Rename timekeeper::tkr to timekeeper::tkr_mono

2015-03-27T08:45:06Z

In preparation of adding another tkr field, rename this one to tkr_mono. Also rename tk_read_base::base_mono to tk_read_base::base, since the structure is not specific to CLOCK_MONOTONIC and the mono name got added to the tk_read_base instance. Lots of trivial churn.

tile: Use the more common pr_warn instead of pr_warning

And other message logging neatening. Other miscellanea: o coalesce formats o realign arguments o standardize a couple of macros o use __func__ instead of embedding the function name Signed-off-by: Joe Perches Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf

Merge branch 'for-3.18-consistent-ops' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/percpu

2014-10-15T05:48:18Z

Pull percpu consistent-ops changes from Tejun Heo: "Way back, before the current percpu allocator was implemented, static and dynamic percpu memory areas were allocated and handled separately and had their own accessors. The distinction has been gone for many years now; however, the now duplicate two sets of accessors remained with the pointer based ones - this_cpu_*() - evolving various other operations over time. During the process, we also accumulated other inconsistent operations. This pull request contains Christoph's patches to clean up the duplicate accessor situation. __get_cpu_var() uses are replaced with with this_cpu_ptr() and __this_cpu_ptr() with raw_cpu_ptr(). Unfortunately, the former sometimes is tricky thanks to C being a bit messy with the distinction between lvalues and pointers, which led to a rather ugly solution for cpumask_var_t involving the introduction of this_cpu_cpumask_var_ptr(). This converts most of the uses but not all. Christoph will follow up with the remaining conversions in this merge window and hopefully remove the obsolete accessors" * 'for-3.18-consistent-ops' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/percpu: (38 commits) irqchip: Properly fetch the per cpu offset percpu: Resolve ambiguities in __get_cpu_var/cpumask_var_t -fix ia64: sn_nodepda cannot be assigned to after this_cpu conversion.

tile: add clock_gettime support to vDSO

2014-10-02T17:56:07Z

This change adds support for clock_gettime with CLOCK_REALTIME and CLOCK_MONOTONIC using vDSO. It also updates the vdso struct nomenclature used for the clocks to match the x86 code to keep it easier to update going forward. We also support the *_COARSE clockid_t, for apps that want speed but aren't concerned about fine-grained timestamps; this saves about 20 cycles per call (see http://lwn.net/Articles/342018/).

tile: Replace __get_cpu_var uses

2014-08-26T17:45:54Z

__get_cpu_var() is used for multiple purposes in the kernel source. One of them is address calculation via the form &__get_cpu_var(x). This calculates the address for the instance of the percpu variable of the current processor based on an offset. Other use cases are for storing and retrieving data from the current processors percpu area. __get_cpu_var() can be used as an lvalue when writing data or on the right side of an assignment. __get_cpu_var() is defined as : #define __get_cpu_var(var) (*this_cpu_ptr(&(var))) __get_cpu_var() always only does an address determination. However, store and retrieve operations could use a segment prefix (or global register on other platforms) to avoid the address calculation. this_cpu_write() and this_cpu_read() can directly take an offset into a percpu area and use optimized assembly code to read and write per cpu variables. This patch converts __get_cpu_var into either an explicit address calculation using this_cpu_ptr() or into a use of this_cpu operations that use the offset. Thereby address calculations are avoided and less registers are used when code is generated. At the end of the patch set all uses of __get_cpu_var have been removed so the macro is removed too. The patch set includes passes over all arches as well. Once these operations are used throughout then specialized macros can be defined in non -x86 arches as well in order to optimize per cpu access by f.e. using a global register that may be set to the per cpu base. Transformations done to __get_cpu_var() 1. Determine the address of the percpu instance of the current processor. DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y); int *x = &__get_cpu_var(y); Converts to int *x = this_cpu_ptr(&y); 2. Same as #1 but this time an array structure is involved. DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y[20]); int *x = __get_cpu_var(y); Converts to int *x = this_cpu_ptr(y); 3. Retrieve the content of the current processors instance of a per cpu variable. DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y); int x = __get_cpu_var(y) Converts to int x = __this_cpu_read(y); 4. Retrieve the content of a percpu struct DEFINE_PER_CPU(struct mystruct, y); struct mystruct x = __get_cpu_var(y); Converts to memcpy(&x, this_cpu_ptr(&y), sizeof(x)); 5. Assignment to a per cpu variable DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y) __get_cpu_var(y) = x; Converts to __this_cpu_write(y, x); 6. Increment/Decrement etc of a per cpu variable DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y); __get_cpu_var(y)++ Converts to __this_cpu_inc(y) Acked-by: Chris Metcalf Signed-off-by: Christoph Lameter Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo

timekeeping: Create struct tk_read_base and use it in struct timekeeper

2014-07-23T22:01:53Z

The members of the new struct are the required ones for the new NMI safe accessor to clcok monotonic. In order to reuse the existing timekeeping code and to make the update of the fast NMI safe timekeepers a simple memcpy use the struct for the timekeeper as well and convert all users.
