[PATCH 2/2] MIPS: Loongson, workaround ll/sc weak ordering

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: YunQiang Su <ysu@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

On the Loongson-2G/2H/3A/3B there is a hardware flaw that ll/sc and
lld/scd is very weak ordering. We should add sync instructions before
each ll/lld and after the last sc/scd to workaround. Otherwise, this
flaw will cause deadlock occationally (e.g. when doing heavy load test
with LTP).

We introduced an gcc/as option "-mfix-loongson3-llsc", this option
inserts sync before ll, and so some addresses in __ex_table will need
to be shift.

Not all Loongson CPU have this problem, aka Loongson starts to solve it
in their new models, such as the last series Loongson 3A 3000.
So for kerenel we introduce a config option CPU_LOONGSON3_WORKAROUND_LLSC,
with this option enabled, we will add "-mfix-loongson3-llsc" to
cc-option.

This is based on the patch from Huacai Chen.
