Hello,
This path set allows to fix some errata for PJ4B CPUs.
Without the first one, the Armada 370 based board can't boot anymore
since 3.10-rc1 . So this one really need to be applied on 3.10-rc.
It should be a good thing to apply the other one on the 3.10-rc, even
if we didn't observe get feedback from user who had a problem related
to these errata, it may happen.
Note that currently PJ4B is a symbol for 2 different CPUs:
- the one used in Armada 370 is a PJ4B
- the ones used in Armada XP are actually PJ4B-MP
So I planed to introduce a new symbol PJ4B-MP but for 3.11 as it is
not related to a critical fix. Awaiting these new symbols I made the
errata depends on ARMADA_370 in the Kconfig.
Russell,
I am aware that you didn't read the first version as you were on not
available. But this first version was usefull as we get many
interesting comments from Will Deacon. I addressed all of them when it
was possible.
Thanks,
Changelog:
V1 -> V2;
- Fixed various coding style and typo issues
- Replaced the "mcr p15, 0, r0, c7, c10, 4" by "dsb"
- Removed the fix for errata 4611 in discard_old_kernel_data function,
as we don't use it

This commit fixes the regression on Armada 370 (the kernal hang during
boot) introduced by the commit: "ARM: 7691/1: mm: kill unused
TLB_CAN_READ_FROM_L1_CACHE and use ALT_SMP instead".
When coming out of either a Wait for Interrupt (WFI) or a Wait for
Event (WFE) IDLE states, a specific timing sensitivity exists between
the retiring WFI/WFE instructions and the newly issued subsequent
instructions. This sensitivity can result in a CPU hang scenario. The
workaround is to insert either a Data Synchronization Barrier (DSB) or
Data Memory Barrier (DMB) command immediately after the WFI/WFE
instruction

A CP15 clean operation can result in a dead lock state if it is hit by
an incoming snoop event. The fix to this issue is the following:
before any CP15 clean type operation in Cache Coherency mode, issue a
Data Memory Barrier (DMB) or a Data Synchronization Barrier (DSB)
instruction.

Wouldn't a DMB be cheaper than a full blown DSB here?
Also, we could detect the PJ4B and only implement the workaround
on those CPUs rather than having to have it on every v7 CPU - which
is important when you consider the single zImage issues.

There are save/restore IRQ macros in assembler.h, so you can use those here
instead of open-coding the cpsr manipulation. Sorry for missing this before.

At least we can detect the PJ4B and maybe even the detect the if it
is the PJ4B or the PJ4B-MP.
Do you mean to add this test in the cpu_v7_do_idle() function?
Or patching the pointer to the cpu_v7_do_idle() on the fly? In this
last case it seems a little tricky to me, as we should have to modify
a pointer function in the .proc.info.init section.
Thanks for your review,
Gregory

I don't like the sound of that -- coming out of idle is basically all
overhead, so adding to it doesn't sound pleasant. Also, given that we won't
actually have any pending memory transactions at this point, a dsb needn't
be too expensive because there's nothing to make visible (obviously requires
benchmarking).
An alternative is disabling wfi/wfe on your core, if that's possible.

Maybe you could hack glue-proc.h to define MULTI_CPU if this workaround is
selected, then patch the pointer in struct processor. (apologies if this
suggestion made you ill :).

No. We already have a pj4 cpu type entry in the tables, so we just need
to specify a separate set of processor functions. This isn't 100%
trivial to do with the macro-isation of stuff, but here's an attempt
(untested):

It could be nicer on the symbol table especially when debugging if the
pj4b was made into a separate branch table e.g.:
ENTRY(cpu_pj4b_switch_mm)
b cpu_v7_switch_mm
ENDPROC(cpu_pj4b_switch_mm)
Otherwise the objdump output will always select the first symbol for any
given address in alphabetical order, masking away cpu_v7_switch_mm.
Alternatively, the following could be done:
#ifdef CONFIG_CPU_PJ4B
.equ cpu_pj4b_switch_mm, cpu_v7_switch_mm
.equ cpu_pj4b_set_pte_ex, cpu_v7_set_pte_ex
...
#ifdef CONFIG_PJ4B_ERRATA_4742
ENTRY(cpu_pj4b_do_idle)
dsb
wfi
dsb
mov pc, lr
ENDPROC(cpu_pj4b_do_idle)
#else
.equ cpu_pj4b_do_idle, cpu_v7_do_idle
#endif
#endif
That saves on the extra branch cost and allows for removing the pj4b
symbols entirely when not configured in, and keeps the changes gathered
together which is IMHO a little prettier.

No, that doesn't work. I did forget a hunk from my patch though, which
needs the pj4b symbols to be global:

This can be wrapped inside #ifdef CONFIG_CPU_PJ4B clearing the symbol
aliasing confusion I mentioned when not configured, and can be done in a
single location instead of being spread all over. Other than that, this
is functionally equivalent to what you did indeed.

Russell, Nicolas,

Gregory
