UV4 does not employ a software-timeout as in previous generations so a new
wait_completion routine without this logic is required. Certain completion
statuses require the AUX status bit in addition to ERROR and BUSY.
Add the read_status routine to construct the full completion status. Use
read_status in the uv4_wait_completion routine to handle all possible
completion statuses.

Remove the present wait_completion routine and add a function pointer by
the same name to the bau_operations struct. Rather than switching on the
UV hub version during message processing, set the architecture-specific
uv*_wait_completion during initialization.
The uv123_bau_ops struct must be split into uv1 and uv2_3 versions to
accommodate the corresponding wait_completion routines.

The location of the ERROR and BUSY status bits depends on the descriptor
index, i.e. the CPU, of the message. Since this index does not change,
there is no need to calculate the mmr and index location during message
processing. The less work we do in the hot path the better.
Add status_mmr and status_index fields to bau_control and compute their
values during initialization. Add kerneldoc descriptions for the new
fields. Update uv*_wait_completion to use these fields rather than
receiving the information as parameters.

Move the bau_operations declaration after bau struct declarations so the
bau structs can be referenced when adding new functions to
bau_operations. That way we avoid forward declarations of the bau
structs.
Likewise, move uv*_bau_ops structs down to avoid forward declarations of
new functions defined in the same file. Declare these structs __initconst
since they are only used during initialization. Similarly, declare the
bau_operations ops instance __ro_after_init as it is read-only after
initialization.
This is a preparatory patch for adding wait_completion to bau_operations.

On UV4, the destination agent verifies each message by checking the

Add the UV4-specific function definitions and define an operations struct
to implement them in the BAU driver.
Many BAU MMRs, although functionally the same, have new addresses on UV4
due to hardware changes. Each MMR requires new read/write functions, but
their implementation in the driver does not change. Thus, it is enough to
enumerate them in the operations struct for the changes to take effect.

The BAU on UV4 does not need to maintain the payload queue tail pointer. Do
not initialize the tail pointer MMR on UV4.
Note that write_payload_tail is not an abstracted BAU function since it is
an operation specific to pre-UV4 versions. Then we must switch on the UV
version to control its usage, for which we use uvhub_version rather than
is_uv*_hub because it is quicker/more concise.

Many BAU functions have different implementations depending on the UV
version. Rather than switching on the uvhub_version throughout the driver,
we can define a set of operations for each version. This is especially
beneficial for UV4, which will require many new MMR read/write functions.
Currently, the set of abstracted functions are the same for UV1, UV2, and
UV3. The functions were chosen because each one will have a different
implementation for UV4. Other functions will be added as needed to handle
new implementations or to cleanup the existing differences between UV1,
UV2, and UV3, i.e. read_status and wait_completion.

For several years, the common practice has been to boot UVs with the
"nobau" parameter on the command line, to disable the BAU. We've
decided that it makes more sense to just disable the BAU by default in
the kernel, and provide the option to turn it on, if desired.
For now, having the on/off switch doesn't buy us any more than just
reversing the logic would, but we're working towards having the BAU
enabled by default on UV4. When those changes are in place, having the
on/off switch will make more sense than an enable flag, since the
default behavior will be different depending on the system version.
I've also added a bit of documentation for the new parameter to
Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt.

In init_per_cpu(), when get_cpu_topology() fails, init_per_cpu_tunables()

If a user then reads /proc/sgi_uv/ptc_statistics ptc_seq_show() references
a NULL pointer. Therefore, since uv_bau_init calls set_bau_off when
init_per_cpu() fails, we add code that detects when the bau is off in

Update of TLB shootdown code for UV3.
Kernel function native_flush_tlb_others() calls
uv_flush_tlb_others() on UV to invalidate tlb page definitions
on remote cpus. The UV systems have a hardware 'broadcast assist
unit' which can be used to broadcast shootdown messages to all
cpu's of selected nodes.
The behavior of the BAU has changed only slightly with UV3:
- UV3 is recognized with is_uv3_hub().
- UV2 functions and structures (uv2_xxx) are in most cases
simply renamed to uv2_3_xxx.
- Some UV2 error workarounds are not needed for UV3.

The SGI UV tlb shootdown code panics the system with a NULL
pointer deference if 'nobau' is specified on the boot

uv_flush_tlb_other() gets called for every flush, whether the
BAU is disabled or not. It should not be keeping the s_enters
statistic while the BAU is disabled.
The panic occurs because during initialization
init_per_cpu_tunables() does not set the bcp->statp pointer if
'nobau' was specified.

x86 has no flush_tlb_range support in instruction level. Currently the
flush_tlb_range just implemented by flushing all page table. That is not
the best solution for all scenarios. In fact, if we just use 'invlpg' to
flush few lines from TLB, we can get the performance gain from later
remain TLB lines accessing.
But the 'invlpg' instruction costs much of time. Its execution time can
compete with cr3 rewriting, and even a bit more on SNB CPU.
So, on a 512 4KB TLB entries CPU, the balance points is at:
(512 - X) * 100ns(assumed TLB refill cost) =
X(TLB flush entries) * 100ns(assumed invlpg cost)
Here, X is 256, that is 1/2 of 512 entries.
But with the mysterious CPU pre-fetcher and page miss handler Unit, the
assumed TLB refill cost is far lower then 100ns in sequential access. And
2 HT siblings in one core makes the memory access more faster if they are
accessing the same memory. So, in the patch, I just do the change when
the target entries is less than 1/16 of whole active tlb entries.
Actually, I have no data support for the percentage '1/16', so any
suggestions are welcomed.
As to hugetlb, guess due to smaller page table, and smaller active TLB
entries, I didn't see benefit via my benchmark, so no optimizing now.
My micro benchmark show in ideal scenarios, the performance improves 70
percent in reading. And in worst scenario, the reading/writing
performance is similar with unpatched 3.4-rc4 kernel.

On SGI's UV2 the BAU (Broadcast Assist Unit) driver can hang
under a heavy load. To cure this:
- Disable the UV2 extended status mode (see UV2_EXT_SHFT), as
this mode changes BAU behavior in more ways then just delivering
an extra bit of status. Revert status to just two meaningful bits,
like UV1.
- Use no IPI-style resets on UV2. Just give up the request for
whatever the reason it failed and let it be accomplished with
the legacy IPI method.
- Use no alternate sending descriptor (the former UV2 workaround
bcp->using_desc and handle_uv2_busy() stuff). Just disable the
use of the BAU for a period of time in favor of the legacy IPI
method when the h/w bug leaves a descriptor busy.
-- new tunable: giveup_limit determines the threshold at which a hub is
so plugged that it should do all requests with the legacy IPI method for a
period of time
-- generalize disable_for_congestion() (renamed disable_for_period()) for
use whenever a hub should avoid using the BAU for a period of time
Also:
- Fix find_another_by_swack(), which is part of the UV2 bug workaround
- Correct and clarify the statistics (new stats s_overipilimit, s_giveuplimit,
s_enters, s_ipifordisabled, s_plugged, s_congested)

This patch enables the BAU to be turned on or off dynamically.
echo "on" > /proc/sgi_uv/ptc_statistics
echo "off" > /proc/sgi_uv/ptc_statistics
The system may be booted with or without the nobau option.
Whether the system currently has the BAU off can be seen in
the /proc file -- normally with the baustats script.
Each cpu will have a 1 in the bauoff field if the BAU was turned
off, so baustats will give a count of cpus that have it off.

Correct the calculation of a destination timeout period, which
is used to distinguish between a destination timeout and the
situation where all the target software ack resources are full
and a request is returned immediately.
The problem is that integer arithmetic was overflowing, yielding
a very large result.
Without this fix destination timeouts are identified as resource
'plugged' events and an ipi method of resource releasing is
unnecessarily employed.

The SGI Altix UV2 BAU (Broadcast Assist Unit) as used for
tlb-shootdown (selective broadcast mode) always uses UV2
broadcast descriptor format. There is no need to clear the
'legacy' (UV1) mode, because the hardware always uses UV2 mode
for selective broadcast.
But the BIOS uses general broadcast and legacy mode, and the
hardware pays attention to the legacy mode bit for general
broadcast. So the kernel must not clear that mode bit.

Initialize two spinlocks in tlb_uv.c and also properly define/initialize
the uv_irq_lock.
The lack of explicit initialization seems to be functionally
harmless, but it is diagnosed when these are turned on:
CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK=y
CONFIG_DEBUG_MUTEXES=y
CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC=y
CONFIG_LOCKDEP=y

This patch implements a workaround for a UV2 hardware bug.
The bug is a non-atomic update of a memory-mapped register. When
hardware message delivery and software message acknowledge occur
simultaneously the pending message acknowledge for the arriving
message may be lost. This causes the sender's message status to
stay busy.
Part of the workaround is to not acknowledge a completed message
until it is verified that no other message is actually using the
resource that is mistakenly recorded in the completed message.
Part of the workaround is to test for long elapsed time in such
a busy condition, then handle it by using a spare sending
descriptor. The stay-busy condition is eventually timed out by
hardware, and then the original sending descriptor can be
re-used. Most of that logic change is in keeping track of the
current descriptor and the state of the spares.
The occurrences of the workaround are added to the BAU
statistics.

Update the use of the Broadcast Assist Unit on SGI Altix UV2 to
the use of native UV2 mode on new hardware (not the legacy mode).
UV2 native mode has a different format for a broadcast message.
We also need quick differentiaton between UV1 and UV2.

This is a workaround for a UV2 hub bug that affects the format of system
global addresses.
The GRU API for UV2 was inadvertently broken by a hardware change. The
format of the physical address used for TLB dropins and for addresses used
with instructions running in unmapped mode has changed. This change was
not documented and became apparent only when diags failed running on
system simulators.
For UV1, TLB and GRU instruction physical addresses are identical to
socket physical addresses (although high NASID bits must be OR'ed into the
address).
For UV2, socket physical addresses need to be converted. The NODE portion
of the physical address needs to be shifted so that the low bit is in bit
39 or bit 40, depending on an MMR value.
It is not yet clear if this bug will be fixed in a silicon respin. If it
is fixed, the hub revision will be incremented & the workaround disabled.

Remove the large stack-resident cpumask_t from
reset_with_ipi()'s stack by allocating one per uvhub.
Due to the limited size of the stack the potentially huge cpumask_t may
cause stack overrun. We haven't seen it happen yet, but we need to make it
a practice not to push such structures onto the stack.
