GRU Driver: hardware data structures

This series of patches adds a driver for the SGI UV GRU.  The driver is
still in development but it currently compiles for both x86_64 & IA64.
All simple regression tests pass on IA64.  Although features remain to be
added, I'd like to start the process of getting the driver into the
kernel.  Additional kernel drivers will depend on services provide by the
GRU driver.

The GRU is a hardware resource located in the system chipset.  The GRU
contains memory that is mmaped into the user address space.  This memory
is used to communicate with the GRU to perform functions such as
load/store, scatter/gather, bcopy, AMOs, etc.  The GRU is directly
accessed by user instructions using user virtual addresses.  GRU
instructions (ex., bcopy) use user virtual addresses for operands.

The GRU contains a large TLB that is functionally very similar to
processor TLBs.  Because the external contains a TLB with user virtual
address, it requires callouts from the core VM system when certain types
of changes are made to the process page tables.  There are several MMUOPS
patches currently being discussed but none has been accepted into the
kernel.  The GRU driver is built using version V18 from Andrea Arcangeli.

This patch:

Contains the definitions of the hardware GRU data structures that are used
by the driver to manage the GRU.

16 years agortc-dev: stop periodic interrupts on device release
Tomas Janousek [Wed, 30 Jul 2008 05:33:51 +0000 (22:33 -0700)]
rtc-dev: stop periodic interrupts on device release

Solves http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11127

The old rtc.c driver did it and some drivers (like rtc-sh) do it in their
release function, though they should not -- because they should provide
the irq_set_state op and the rtc framework itself should care about it.
This patch makes it do so.

I am aware that some drivers, like rtc-sh, handle userspace PIE sets in
their ioctl op (instead of having the framework call the op), exporting
the irq_set_state op at the same time.  The logic in rtc_irq_set_state
should make sure it doesn't matter and the driver should not need to care
stopping periodic interrupts in its release routine any more.

The correct way, in my opinion, should be this:
1) The driver provides the irq_set_state op and does not care closing the
   interrupts in its release op.
2) If the driver does not provide the op and handles PIE in the ioctl op, it's
   reponsible for closing them in its release op.
3) Something similar for other IRQs, like UIE -- if there's no in-kernel API
   like irq_set_state, handle it in ioctl and release ops. The framework will
   be responsible either for everything or for nothing. (This will probably
   change later.)

cpuset: fix wrong calculation of relax domain level

When multiple cpusets are overlapping in their 'cpus' and hence they
form a single sched domain, the largest sched_relax_domain_level among
those should be used. But when top_cpuset's sched_load_balance is

Changing this from a process to a thread somewhat simplifies things:

lguest: Tell Guest net not to notify us on every packet xmit

virtio_ring has the ability to suppress notifications.  This prevents
a guest exit for every packet, but we need to set a timer on packet
receipt to re-check if there were any remaining packets.

Here are the times for 1G TCP Guest->Host with different timeout
settings (it matters because the TCP window doesn't grow big enough to
fill the entire buffer):

Timeout value Seconds Xmit/Recv/Timeout
None (before) 25.3784 xmit 7750233 recv 1
2500 usec 62.5119 xmit 207020 recv 2 timeout 207020
1000 usec 34.5379 xmit 207003 recv 2 timeout 207003
750 usec 29.2305 xmit 207002 recv 1 timeout 207002
500 usec 19.1887 xmit 561141 recv 1 timeout 559657
250 usec 20.0465 xmit 214128 recv 2 timeout 214110
100 usec 19.2583 xmit 561621 recv 1 timeout 560153

(Note that these values are sensitive to the GSO patches which come
 later, and probably other traffic-related variables, so take with a
 large grain of salt).

16 years agolguest: Support assigning a MAC address

lguest: Support assigning a MAC address

If you've got a nice DHCP configuration which maps MAC
addresses to specific IP addresses, then you're going to
want to start your guest with one of those MAC addresses.

Also, in Fedora, we have persistent network interface naming
based on the MAC address, so with randomly assigned
addresses you're soon going to hit eth13. Who knows what
will happen then!

Allow assigning a MAC address to the network interface with
e.g.

  --tunnet=bridge:eth0:00:FF:95:6B:DA:3D

or:

  --tunnet=192.168.121.1:00:FF:95:6B:DA:3D

which is pretty unintelligable, but ...
