a portable SG_NOEXEC segment attribute was added to allow
non-executable (physical) segments. which will set the
PTENOEXEC bits for putmmu().
in the future, this can be used to make non-executable
stack / bss segments.
the SG_DEVICE attribute was added to distinguish between
mmio regions and uncached memory. only matterns on arm64.
on arm, theres the issue that PTEUNCACHED would have
no bits set when using the hardware bit definitions.
this is the reason bcm, kw, teg2 and omap kernels use
arteficial PTE constants. on zynq, the XN bit was used
as a hack to give PTEUNCACHED a non-zero value and when
the bit is clear then cache attributes where added to
the pte.
to fix this, PTECACHED constant was added.
the portable mmu code in fault.c will now explicitely set
PTECACHED bits for cached memory and PTEUNCACHED for
uncached memory. that way the hardware bit definitions
can be used everywhere.
on the 2GB and 4GB raspberry pi 4 variants, there are two
memory regions for ram:
[0x00000000..0x3e600000)
[0x40000000..0xfc000000)
the framebuffer is somewhere at the end of the first
GB of memory.
to handle these, we append the region base and limit
of the second region to *maxmem= like:
*maxmem=0x3e600000 0x40000000 0xfc000000
the mmu code has been changed to have non-existing
ram unmapped and mmukmap() now uses small 64K pages
instead of 512GB pages to avoid aliasing (framebuffer).
the VIRTPCI mapping has been removed as we now have
a proper vmap() implementation which assigns vritual
addresses automatically.
this adds a 4GB KMAP window into the kernel address space
so we can access all physical ram on raspberry pi 4 for
user pages.
note that kernel memory above KZERO is still limited
to 1GB because of DMA restrictions.
according to the following linux change, BCM2711 uses a different
method for changing pullup/down mode:
abcfd09286 (diff-cf078559c38543ac72c5db99323e236d)
gpiomeminit() was broken, using virtual address for the gpio physseg
instead of the physical one.
cleanup the code, avoid repetition by declaring static u32int *regs
variable. make local variable names consistent.
the raspberry pi 4 has a new interrupt controller and
pci support, so get rid of intrenable() macro and
properly make intrenable function with tbdf argument.
the raspberry pi4 firmware refuses to enable the GIC interrup controller
for arm64 when the .img file is not a multiple of 4 bytes. yes, this
is insane and nowhere documented.
the new raspberry pi 4 firmware for arm64 seems to have
broken atag support. so we now parse the device tree
structure to get the bootargs and memory configuration.
Ori Bernstein had Sunrise Point-H USB 3.0 xHCI Controller that would mysteriously
crash on the 5th ENABLESLOT command. This was reproducable by even just allocating
slots in a loop right after init.
It turns out, the 1.2 spec extended the Max Scratchpad Buffers in HCSPARAMS2 so our
driver would not allocate enougth scratchpad buffers and controller firmware would
crash once it went beyond our allocated scratchpad buffer array.
This change also fixes:
- ignore bits 16:31 in PAGESIZE register
- preserve bits 10:31 in the CONFIG register
- handle ADDESSDEV command failure (so it can be retried)
preallocate 2% of user pages for page tables and MMU structures
and keep them mapped in the VMAP range. this leaves more space
in the KZERO window and avoids running out of kernel memory on
machines with large amounts of memory.
always clean AND invalidate caches before dma read,
never just invalidate as the buffer might not be
aligned to cache lines...
we have to invalidate caches again *AFTER* the dma
read has completed. the processor can bring in data
speculatively into the cache while the dma in in
flight.
we override atag memory on reboot, so preserve
the memsize learned from atag as *maxmem plan9
variable. the global memsize variable is not
needed anymore.
avoid trashing the following atag when zero
terminating the cmdline string.
zero memory after plan9.ini variables.
the Ipselftab is designed to not require locking on read
operation. locking the selftab in ipselftabread() risks
deadlock when accessing the user buffer creates a fault.
remove unused fields from the Ipself struct.
initialize the rate limits when the device gets
bound, not when it is created. so that the
rate limtis get reset to default when the ifc
is reused.
adjust the burst delay when the mtu is changed.
this is to make sure that we allow at least one
full sized packet burst.
make a local copy of ifc->m before doing nil
check as it can change under us when we do
not have the ifc locked.
specify Ebound[] and Eunbound[] error strings
and use them consistently.
remove references to the unused Conv.car qlock.
ipifcregisterproxy() is called with the proxy
ifc wlock'd, which means we cannot acquire the
rwlock of the interfaces that will proxy for us
because it is allowed to rlock() multiple ifc's
in any order. to get arround this, we use canrlock()
and skip the interface when we cannot acquire the
lock.
the ifc should get wlock'd only when we are about
to modify the ifc or its lifc chain. that is when
adding or removing addresses. wlock is not required
when we addresses to the selfcache, which has its
own qlock.
mark reader process pointers with (void*)-1 to mean
not started yet. this avoids the race condition when
media unbind happens before the kproc has set its
Proc* pointer. then we would not post the note and
the reader would continue running after unbind.
etherbind can be simplified by reading the #lX/addr
file to get the mac address, avoiding the temporary
buffer.
when the exclusive monitor is cleared, a event is generated
which we can use to wake up idlehands. that way we do not
need to wait for the next timer interrupt until a cpu takes
work from the run queue.
we did not interpret the $rootdir and $rootspec environment
variables right. $rootdir is what gets bound to / (usually /root)
and $rootspec is the mountspec of /root.
i'v been seeing the error condition described above in the
Slowbulkin comment. so i'm enabling the work arround which
seems to fix the lockup.
in the split transaction case where we want to start the
transaction at frame start, acquire the ctlr lock *before*
checking if we are in the right frame number. so the start
will happen atomically. checking the software ctlr->sofchan
instead of checking the interrupt mask register seems to
be quicker.
setting the haint mask bit for the chan under ctlr lock
in chanio() instead of chanwait() avoids needing to acquire
the ctlr lock twice.
mask wakechan bits with busychan bitmap in interrupt handlers
so we will not try to wake up released chans by accident.
sleep() and tsleep() might get interrupted so we have to
release the split qlock in the split transaction case and
in all cases, make sure to halt the channel before release.
add some common debug functions to dump channel and controller
registers.
we have to ensure that all stores saving the process state
have completed before setting up->mach = nil in the scheduler.
otherwise, another cpu could observe up->mach == nil while
the stores such as the processes p->sched label have not finnished.
attached is a patch to fix receive in the 8169 chip on my thinkpad
A485. i'm not sure why, but the same thing was done in 3d56a0fc4645
for Macv45.

some control transactions can confuse the xhci controller so
much that it even fails to respond to command abort or STOPEP
control command. with no way for us to abort the transaction
but a full controller reset.
we give the controller 5 seconds to abort our initial
transaction and if that fails we wake the recover process
to reset the controller.
thanks mischief for testing.
the temporary stack segment used to be at a fixed address above or
below the user stack. these days, the temp stack is mapped dynamically
by sysexec so TSTKTOP is obsolete.
between being commited to a machno and having acquired the lock, the
scheduler could come in an schedule us on a different processor. the
solution is to have dtmachlock() take a special -1 argument to mean
"current mach" and return the actual mach number after the lock has
been acquired and interrupts being disabled.
