* tile: use atomic op to unlock pthread_spinlock_tChris Metcalf2012-11-061-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | Atomic ops are issued directly from the core, rather than potentially sitting in the write buffer, so can improve the performance of other waiters. In addition, if we didn't end up pulling a copy of the cache line where the lock is into cache, by using an atomic op we don't have to acquire the cache line before we can unlock.

* tile: support very large shared objectsChris Metcalf2012-11-061-0/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With gcc 4.8 tilegx has support for -mcmodel=large, to tolerate very large shared objects. This option changes the compiler output to not include direct jump instructions, which have a range of only 2^30, i.e +/- 512MB. Instead the compiler marshalls the target PCs into registers and then uses jump- or call-to-register instructions. For glibc, the upshot is that we need to arrange for a few functions to tolerate the possibility of a large range between the PC and the target. In particular, the crti.S and start.S code needs to be able to reach from .init to the PLT, as does gmon-start.c. The elf-init.c code has the reverse problem, needing to call from libc_nonshared.a (linked at the end of shared objects) back to the _init section at the beginning. No other functions in *_nonshared.a need to be built this way, as they only call the PLT (or potentially each other), but all of that code is linked at the very end of the shared object. We don't build the standard -static archives with this option as the performance cost is high enough and the use case is rare enough that it doesn't seem worthwhile. Instead, we would encourage developers who need the -static model with huge executables to build a private copy of glibc and configure it with -mcmodel=large. Note that libc.so et al don't need any changes; the only changes are for code that is statically linked into user code built with -mcmodel=large. For the assembly code, I just rewrote it so that it unconditionally uses the large model. To be able to pass -mcmodel=large to csu/elf-init.c and csu/gmon-start.c, I need to check to see if the compiler supports that flag, since gcc 4.7 doesn't; I added the support by creating a small Makefile fragment that just runs the compiler to check.
* tile: improve simulator notification for relative paths in dlopenChris Metcalf2012-11-061-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | Normally, the simulator is notified of absolute pathnames by the _dl_load_hook hook. However, when a relative pathname is used, the simulator may not know that the relative path matches a path that it could figure out in the file system that it has access to. Instead we provide a simplified version of the realpath function so we can pass a plausible absolute pathname to the simulator. Since we're now doing more work at object load time, we also add a guard so we do no work at all if we're not running on the simulator.
* Optimize tile (mostly tilegx) memcpy and memmove performance.Chris Metcalf2012-11-061-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | - Override <memcopy.h> so we use full 8-byte word copies on tilegx32 for memmove, then use op_t in memcpy instead of the previous locally-defined word_t just to avoid proliferating identical types. - Fix bug in memcpy prefetch that caused us to never prefetch past the first cache line. - Optimize misaligned memcpy by inlining _wordcopy_fwd_dest_aligned instead of just doing a dumb word-at-a-time copy. - Make memcpy safe for forward copies by doing all the loads from a given cache line prior to doing a wh64 (cache line zero-fill) on the destination. Remove now-redundant src == dst check. - Copy and optimize the generic wordcopy.c routines to use the tile "double align" instruction instead of the MERGE macro; to avoid offset addressing mode (which tile doesn't have) by rewriting the pointer math to load and store with a zero index; and to use post-increment addresses in the inner loops to improve scheduling.

* Invoke DL_AFTER_LOAD if definedChris Metcalf2012-10-301-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | This hook is useful for any arch-specific functionality that should be done on loaded objects. For the tile architecture, the hook is already provided (though we switch to using the new macro name with this commit) and implements a simulator notifier so that the simulator can load Elf symbols to match the object and generate better error messages for PC's. Also, remove a spurious definition of DL_UNMAP in dl-runtime.c

* tilegx: add optimized sched_getcpu() using TILE_COORD SPRChris Metcalf2012-10-121-0/+4
| | | | | | We can discover our x,y coordinate in the core mesh with an mfspr instruction, multiply y by the core mesh width, and have the core number without needing to ask the kernel.

* tile: fix type of prfpregset_t in <sys/procfs.h>Chris Metcalf2012-09-061-0/+2
| | | | | | | | The previous dummy definition (as type int) was fine in general, since tile doesn't have floating-point registers, but it confused gdb's configure, leading to later compile errors. This change also makes prfpregset_t parallel to prgregset_t, which seems like generally the right thing regardless of the non-existence of the actual registers :-)
