2009-03-27ia64: remove some warnings.Isaku Yamahata
This patch removes the following warnings and related ones. Plus some cosmetics. arch/ia64/kernel/patch.c:112: warning: passing argument 1 of 'paravirt_fc' makes integer from pointer without a cast arch/ia64/kernel/patch.c:135: warning: passing argument 1 of 'paravirt_fc' makes integer from pointer without a cast arch/ia64/kernel/patch.c:166: warning: passing argument 1 of 'paravirt_fc' makes integer from pointer without a cast arch/ia64/kernel/patch.c:202: warning: passing argument 1 of 'paravirt_fc' makes integer from pointer without a cast arch/ia64/kernel/patch.c:220: warning: passing argument 1 of 'paravirt_fc' makes integer from pointer without a cast Signed-off-by: Isaku Yamahata <yamahata@valinux.co.jp> Signed-off-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com>
2009-03-26ia64/pv_ops: implement binary patching optimization for native.Isaku Yamahata
implement binary patching optimization for pv_cpu_ops. With this optimization, indirect call for pv_cpu_ops methods can be converted into inline execution or direct call. Signed-off-by: Isaku Yamahata <yamahata@valinux.co.jp> Signed-off-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com>
2009-03-26ia64/pv_ops/pv_time_ops: add sched_clock hook.Isaku Yamahata
add sched_clock() hook to paravirtualize sched_clock(). ia64 sched_clock() is based on ar.itc which isn't stable on virtualized environment because vcpu may move around on pcpus. So it needs paravirtualization. Signed-off-by: Isaku Yamahata <yamahata@valinux.co.jp> Signed-off-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com>
2008-11-20[IA64] ia64/pv_ops/pv_cpu_ops: fix _IA64_REG_IP case.Isaku Yamahata
pv_cpu_ops.getreg(_IA64_REG_IP) returned constant. But the returned ip valued should be the one in the caller, not of the callee. This patch fixes that. Signed-off-by: Isaku Yamahata <yamahata@valinux.co.jp> Signed-off-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com>
2008-10-17ia64/pv_ops: avoid name conflict of get_irq_chip().Isaku Yamahata
The macro get_irq_chip() is defined in linux/include/linux/irq.h which cause name conflict with one in linux/arch/ia64/include/asm/paravirt.h. rename the latter to __get_irq_chip(). Signed-off-by: Isaku Yamahata <yamahata@valinux.co.jp> Signed-off-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com>
2008-05-27[IA64] pvops: add to hooks, pv_time_ops, for steal time accounting.Isaku Yamahata
Introduce pv_time_ops which adds hook to steal time accounting. On virtualized environment, cpus are shared by many guests and steal time is the time which is used for other guests. On virtualized environtment, streal time should be accounted. Signed-off-by: Isaku Yamahata <yamahata@valinux.co.jp> Signed-off-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com>
2008-05-27[IA64] pvops: add hooks, pv_irq_ops, to paravirtualized irq related operations.Isaku Yamahata
introduce pv_irq_ops which adds hooks to paravirtualize irq related operations. On virtualized environment, interruption may be replaced by something virtualization friendly. So the irq related operation also may need paravirtualization. This patch adds necessary hooks to paravirtualize irq related operations.

2008-05-27[IA64] pvops: add hooks, pv_iosapic_ops, to paravirtualize iosapic.Isaku Yamahata
add hooks to paravirtualize iosapic which is a real hardware resource. On virtualized environment it may be replaced something virtualized friendly. Define pv_iosapic_ops and add the hooks. Signed-off-by: Isaku Yamahata <yamahata@valinux.co.jp> Signed-off-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com>

2008-05-27[IA64] pvops: paravirtualize entry.SIsaku Yamahata
paravirtualize ia64_swtich_to, ia64_leave_syscall and ia64_leave_kernel. They include sensitive or performance critical privileged instructions so that they need paravirtualization. To paravirtualize them by single source and multi compile they are converted into indirect jump. And define each pv instances.
