Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!

/* The following comparison of this routine vs the normal copy_page.S
|
|
was written by an unnamed ev6 hardware designer and forwarded to me
|
|
via Steven Hobbs <hobbs@steven.zko.dec.com>.
|
|
|
|
First Problem: STQ overflows.
|
|
-----------------------------
|
|
|
|
It would be nice if EV6 handled every resource overflow efficiently,
|
|
but for some it doesn't. Including store queue overflows. It causes
|
|
a trap and a restart of the pipe.
|
|
|
|
To get around this we sometimes use (to borrow a term from a VSSAD
|
|
researcher) "aeration". The idea is to slow the rate at which the
|
|
processor receives valid instructions by inserting nops in the fetch
|
|
path. In doing so, you can prevent the overflow and actually make
|
|
the code run faster. You can, of course, take advantage of the fact
|
|
that the processor can fetch at most 4 aligned instructions per cycle.
|
|
|
|
I inserted enough nops to force it to take 10 cycles to fetch the
|
|
loop code. In theory, EV6 should be able to execute this loop in
|
|
9 cycles but I was not able to get it to run that fast -- the initial
|
|
conditions were such that I could not reach this optimum rate on
|
|
(chaotic) EV6. I wrote the code such that everything would issue
|
|
in order.
|
|
|
|
Second Problem: Dcache index matches.
|
|
-------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
If you are going to use this routine on random aligned pages, there
|
|
is a 25% chance that the pages will be at the same dcache indices.
|
|
This results in many nasty memory traps without care.
|
|
|
|
The solution is to schedule the prefetches to avoid the memory
|
|
conflicts. I schedule the wh64 prefetches farther ahead of the
|
|
read prefetches to avoid this problem.
|
|
|
|
Third Problem: Needs more prefetching.
|
|
--------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
In order to improve the code I added deeper prefetching to take the
|
|
most advantage of EV6's bandwidth.
|
|
|
|
I also prefetched the read stream. Note that adding the read prefetch
|
|
forced me to add another cycle to the inner-most kernel - up to 11
|
|
from the original 8 cycles per iteration. We could improve performance
|
|
further by unrolling the loop and doing multiple prefetches per cycle.
|
|
|
|
I think that the code below will be very robust and fast code for the
|
|
purposes of copying aligned pages. It is slower when both source and
|
|
destination pages are in the dcache, but it is my guess that this is
|
|
less important than the dcache miss case. */
