Waiman Long d8d0da4eee locking/arch: Move qrwlock.h include after qspinlock.h
include/asm-generic/qrwlock.h was trying to get arch_spin_is_locked via
asm-generic/qspinlock.h.  However, this does not work because architectures
might be using queued rwlocks but not queued spinlocks (csky), or because they
might be defining their own queued_* macros before including asm/qspinlock.h.

To fix this, ensure that asm/spinlock.h always includes qrwlock.h after
defining arch_spin_is_locked (either directly for csky, or via
asm/qspinlock.h for other architectures).  The only inclusion elsewhere
is in kernel/locking/qrwlock.c.  That one is really unnecessary because
the file is only compiled in SMP configurations (config QUEUED_RWLOCKS
depends on SMP) and in that case linux/spinlock.h already includes
asm/qrwlock.h if needed, via asm/spinlock.h.

Will Deacon 346e91ee09 mips/mmiowb: Add unconditional mmiowb() to arch_spin_unlock()
The mmiowb() macro is horribly difficult to use and drivers will continue
to work most of the time if they omit a call when it is required.

Rather than rely on driver authors getting this right, push mmiowb() into
arch_spin_unlock() for mips. If this is deemed to be a performance issue,
a subsequent optimisation could make use of ARCH_HAS_MMIOWB to elide
the barrier in cases where no I/O writes were performed inside the
critical section.

Will Deacon a4c1887d4c locking/arch: Remove dummy arch_{read,spin,write}_lock_flags() implementations
The arch_{read,spin,write}_lock_flags() macros are simply mapped to the
non-flags versions by the majority of architectures, so do this in core
code and remove the dummy implementations. Also remove the implementation
in spinlock_up.h, since all callers of do_raw_spin_lock_flags() call
local_irq_save(flags) anyway.

Paul Burton 0b17c96705 MIPS: Use queued spinlocks (qspinlock)
This patch switches MIPS to make use of generically implemented queued
spinlocks, rather than the ticket spinlocks used previously. This allows
us to drop a whole load of inline assembly, share more generic code, and
is also a performance win.

Results from running the AIM7 short workload on a MIPS Creator Ci40 (ie.
2 core 2 thread interAptiv CPU clocked at 546MHz) with v4.12-rc4
pistachio_defconfig, with ftrace disabled due to a current bug, and both
with & without use of queued rwlocks & spinlocks:

Paul Burton 4b5347a24a MIPS: End spinlocks with .insn
When building for microMIPS we need to ensure that the assembler always
knows that there is code at the target of a branch or jump. Recent
toolchains will fail to link a microMIPS kernel when this isn't the case
due to what it thinks is a branch to non-microMIPS code.

mips-mti-linux-gnu-ld kernel/built-in.o: .spinlock.text+0x2fc: Unsupported branch between ISA modes.
mips-mti-linux-gnu-ld final link failed: Bad value

This is due to inline assembly labels in spinlock.h not being followed
by an instruction mnemonic, either due to a .subsection pseudo-op or the
end of the inline asm block.

Fix this with a .insn direction after such labels.

Peter Zijlstra 726328d92a locking/spinlock, arch: Update and fix spin_unlock_wait() implementations
This patch updates/fixes all spin_unlock_wait() implementations.

The update is in semantics; where it previously was only a control
dependency, we now upgrade to a full load-acquire to match the
store-release from the spin_unlock() we waited on. This ensures that
when spin_unlock_wait() returns, we're guaranteed to observe the full
critical section we waited on.

This fixes a number of spin_unlock_wait() users that (not
unreasonably) rely on this.

I also fixed a number of ticket lock versions to only wait on the
current lock holder, instead of for a full unlock, as this is
sufficient.

Furthermore; again for ticket locks; I added an smp_rmb() in between
the initial ticket load and the spin loop testing the current value
because I could not convince myself the address dependency is
sufficient, esp. if the loads are of different sizes.

I'm more than happy to remove this smp_rmb() again if people are
certain the address dependency does indeed work as expected.

Note: PPC32 will be fixed independently

Paul Burton 5fac4f7ac0 MIPS: Select CONFIG_ARCH_USE_CMPXCHG_LOCKREF for MIPS64
On MIPS64 we have spinlocks that are 32b in size and an efficient
cmpxchg64 implementation, so we qualify to make use of cmpxchg backed
lockrefs. Select the ARCH_USE_CMPXCHG_LOCKREF Kconfig symbol and provide
a trivial implementation of arch_spin_value_unlocked to satisfy the
lockref code.

Repleace smp_mb() in arch_write_unlock() and __clear_bit_unlock() to
smp_mb__before_llsc() call which does "release" barrier functionality.

It seems like it was missed in commit f252ffd50c
during introduction of "acquire" and "release" semantics.

[ralf@linux-mips: The original patch submission was labelled a fix but
actually it replaces a barrier with another less restrictive type of
barrier so it doesn't fix any ill behaviour but rather squeezes out a
tad better performance.  Further improvments will be possible once
smp_release() has been merged.]

Maciej W. Rozycki b0984c4370 MIPS: Fix microMIPS LL/SC immediate offsets
In the microMIPS encoding some memory access instructions have their
immediate offset reduced to 12 bits only.  That does not match the GCC
`R' constraint we use in some places to satisfy the requirement,
resulting in build failures like this:

{standard input}: Assembler messages:
{standard input}:720: Error: macro used $at after ".set noat"
{standard input}:720: Warning: macro instruction expanded into multiple instructions

Fix the problem by defining a macro, `GCC_OFF12_ASM', that expands to
the right constraint depending on whether microMIPS or standard MIPS
code is produced.  Also apply the fix to where `m' is used as in the
worst case this change does nothing, e.g. where the pointer was already
in a register such as a function argument and no further offset was
requested, and in the best case it avoids an extraneous sequence of up
to two instructions to load the high 20 bits of the address in the LL/SC
loop.  This reduces the risk of lock contention that is the higher the
more instructions there are in the critical section between LL and SC.

Strictly speaking we could just bulk-replace `R' with `ZC' as the latter
constraint adjusts automatically depending on the ISA selected.
However it was only introduced with GCC 4.9 and we keep supporing older
compilers for the standard MIPS configuration, hence the slightly more
complicated approach I chose.

The choice of a zero-argument function-like rather than an object-like
macro was made so that it does not look like a function call taking the
C expression used for the constraint as an argument.  This is so as not
to confuse the reader or formatting checkers like `checkpatch.pl' and
follows previous practice.

David Daney 500c2e1fdb MIPS: Optimize spinlocks.
The current locking mechanism uses a ll/sc sequence to release a

The branching forward to .subsection 2 on sc failure slows down the
contended case.  So we get rid of that part too.

Since we are now working on naturally aligned u16 values, we can get
rid of a masking operation as the LHU already does the right thing.

David Daney 0e6826c73c MIPS: __raw_spin_lock() may spin forever on ticket wrap.
If the lock is not acquired and has to spin *and* the second attempt
to acquire the lock fails, the delay time is not masked by the ticket
range mask.  If the ticket number wraps around to zero, the result is
that the lock sampling delay is essentially infinite (due to casting
-1 to an unsigned int).

The fix: Always mask the difference between my_ticket and the current
ticket value before calculating the delay.

Kyle McMartin a5ef7ca0e2 x86: spinlocks: define dummy __raw_spin_is_contended
Architectures other than mips and x86 are not using ticket spinlocks.
Therefore, the contention on the lock is meaningless, since there is
nobody known to be waiting on it (arguably /fairly/ unfair locks).

Dummy it out to return 0 on other architectures.
