2007-08-17[POWERPC] Implement atomic{, 64}_{read, write}() without volatileSegher Boessenkool
Instead, use asm() like all other atomic operations already do. Also use inline functions instead of macros; this actually improves code generation (some code becomes a little smaller, probably because of improved alias information -- just a few hundred bytes total on a default kernel build, nothing shocking).

2007-05-08atomic.h: atomic_add_unless as inline. Remove system.h atomic.h circular ↵Mathieu Desnoyers
dependency atomic_add_unless as inline. Remove system.h atomic.h circular dependency. I agree (with Andi Kleen) this typeof is not needed and more error prone. All the original atomic.h code that uses cmpxchg (which includes the atomic_add_unless) uses defines instead of inline functions, probably to circumvent a circular dependency between system.h and atomic.h on powerpc (which my patch addresses). Therefore, it makes sense to use inline functions that will provide type checking. atomic_add_unless as inline. Remove system.h atomic.h circular dependency. Digging into the FRV architecture shows me that it is also affected by such a circular dependency. Here is the diff applying this against the rest of my atomic.h patches. It applies over the atomic.h standardization patches.

2007-01-22[POWERPC] atomic_dec_if_positive sign extension fixRobert Jennings
On 64-bit machines, if an atomic counter is explicitly set to a negative value, the atomic_dec_if_positive function will decrement and store the next smallest value in the atomic counter, contrary to its intended operation. The comparison to determine if the decrement will make the result negative was done by the "addic." instruction, which operates on a 64-bit value, namely the zero-extended word loaded from the atomic variable. This patch uses an explicit word compare (cmpwi) and changes the addic. to an addi (also changing "=&r" to "=&b" so that r0 isn't used, and addi doesn't become li). This also fixes a bug for both 32-bit and 64-bit in that previously 0x80000000 was considered positive, since the result after decrementing is positive. Now it is considered negative. Also, I clarify the return value in the comments just to make it clear that the value returned is always the decremented value, even if that value is not stored back to the atomic counter.

2006-01-13[PATCH] powerpc: use lwsync in atomics, bitops, lock functionsAnton Blanchard
eieio is only a store - store ordering. When used to order an unlock operation loads may leak out of the critical region. This is potentially buggy, one example is if a user wants to atomically read a couple of values. We can solve this with an lwsync which orders everything except store - load. I removed the (now unused) EIEIO_ON_SMP macros and the c versions isync_on_smp and eieio_on_smp now we dont use them. I also removed some old comments that were used to identify inline spinlocks in assembly, they dont make sense now our locks are out of line. Another interesting thing was that read_unlock was using an eieio even though the rest of the spinlock code had already been converted to use lwsync.

2006-01-06[PATCH] atomic_long_t & include/asm-generic/atomic.h V2Christoph Lameter
Several counters already have the need to use 64 atomic variables on 64 bit platforms (see mm_counter_t in sched.h). We have to do ugly ifdefs to fall back to 32 bit atomic on 32 bit platforms. The VM statistics patch that I am working on will also make more extensive use of atomic64. This patch introduces a new type atomic_long_t by providing definitions in asm-generic/atomic.h that works similar to the c "long" type. Its 32 bits on 32 bit platforms and 64 bits on 64 bit platforms. Also cleans up the determination of the mm_counter_t in sched.h.

2005-11-10[PATCH] powerpc: Consolidate asm compatibility macrosDavid Gibson
This patch consolidates macros used to generate assembly for compatibility across different CPUs or configs. A new header, asm-powerpc/asm-compat.h contains the main compatibility macros. It uses some preprocessor magic to make the macros suitable both for use in .S files, and in inline asm in .c files. Headers (bitops.h, uaccess.h, atomic.h, bug.h) which had their own such compatibility macros are changed to use asm-compat.h. ppc_asm.h is now for use in .S files *only*, and a #error enforces that. As such, we're a lot more careless about namespace pollution here than in asm-compat.h. While we're at it, this patch adds a call to the PPC405_ERR77 macro in futex.h which should have had it already, but didn't. Built and booted on pSeries, Maple and iSeries (ARCH=powerpc). Built for 32-bit powermac (ARCH=powerpc) and Walnut (ARCH=ppc). Signed-off-by: David Gibson <dwg@au1.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
