Andrew Donnellan 61e3acd8c6 powerpc: Fix __clear_user() with KUAP enabled
The KUAP implementation adds calls in clear_user() to enable and
disable access to userspace memory. However, it doesn't add these to
__clear_user(), which is used in the ptrace regset code.

As there's only one direct user of __clear_user() (the regset code),
and the time taken to set the AMR for KUAP purposes is going to
dominate the cost of a quick access_ok(), there's not much point
having a separate path.

Rename __clear_user() to __arch_clear_user(), and make __clear_user()
just call clear_user().

Andreas Schwab 8a583c0a8d powerpc: Fix invalid use of register expressions
binutils >= 2.26 now warns about misuse of register expressions in
assembler operands that are actually literals, for example:

  arch/powerpc/kernel/entry_64.S:535: Warning: invalid register expression

In practice these are almost all uses of r0 that should just be a
literal 0.

Benjamin Herrenschmidt bd067f83b0 powerpc/64: Fix naming of cache block vs. cache line
In a number of places we called "cache line size" what is actually
the cache block size, which in the powerpc architecture, means the
effective size to use with cache management instructions (it can
be different from the actual cache line size).

We fix the naming across the board and properly retrieve both
pieces of information when available in the device-tree.

Nicholas Piggin 24bfa6a9e0 powerpc: EX_TABLE macro for exception tables
This macro is taken from s390, and allows more flexibility in
changing exception table format.

mpe: Put it in ppc_asm.h and only define one version using
stringinfy_in_c(). Add some empty definitions and headers to keep the
selftests happy.

Anton Blanchard 2ac7b0166a powerpc: Exported functions __clear_user and copy_page use r2 so need _GLOBAL_TOC()
__clear_user and copy_page load from the TOC and are also exported
to modules. This means we have to use _GLOBAL_TOC() so that we
create the global entry point that sets up the TOC.

Anton Blanchard cf8fb5533f powerpc: Optimise the 64bit optimised __clear_user
I blame Mikey for this. He elevated my slightly dubious testcase:

to benchmark status. And naturally we need to be number 1 at creating
zeros. So lets improve __clear_user some more.

As Paul suggests we can use dcbz for large lengths. This patch gets
the destination cacheline aligned then uses dcbz on whole cachelines.

Anton Blanchard 17968fbbd1 powerpc: 64bit optimised __clear_user
I noticed __clear_user high up in a profile of one of my RAID stress
tests. The testcase was doing a dd from /dev/zero which ends up
calling __clear_user.

__clear_user is basically a loop with a single 4 byte store which
is horribly slow. We can do much better by aligning the desination
and doing 32 bytes of 8 byte stores in a loop.

The following testcase was used to verify the patch:

http://ozlabs.org/~anton/junkcode/stress_clear_user.c

To show the improvement in performance I ran a dd from /dev/zero
to /dev/null on a POWER7 box:

Before:

# dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/null bs=1M count=10000
10485760000 bytes (10 GB) copied, 3.72379 s, 2.8 GB/s

After:

# time dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/null bs=1M count=10000
10485760000 bytes (10 GB) copied, 0.728318 s, 14.4 GB/s

Over 5x faster.
