ARC: dma [non-IOC] setup SMP_CACHE_BYTES and cache_line_size As for today we don't setup SMP_CACHE_BYTES and cache_line_size for ARC, so they are set to L1_CACHE_BYTES by default. L1 line length (L1_CACHE_BYTES) might be easily smaller than L2 line (which is usually the case BTW). This breaks code. For example this breaks ethernet infrastructure on HSDK/AXS103 boards with IOC disabled, involving manual cache flushes Functions which alloc and manage sk_buff packet data area rely on SMP_CACHE_BYTES define. In the result we can share last L2 cache line in sk_buff linear packet data area between DMA buffer and some useful data in other structure. So we can lose this data when we invalidate DMA buffer. sk_buff linear packet data area | | | skb->end skb->tail V | | V V ----------------------------------------------. packet data | <tail padding> | <useful data in other struct> ----------------------------------------------. ---------------------.--------------------------------------------------. SLC line | SLC (L2 cache) line (128B) | ---------------------.--------------------------------------------------. ^ ^ | | These cache lines will be invalidated when we invalidate skb linear packet data area before DMA transaction starting. This leads to issues painful to debug as it reproduces only if (sk_buff->end - sk_buff->tail) < SLC_LINE_SIZE and if we have some useful data right after sk_buff->end. Fix that by hardcode SMP_CACHE_BYTES to max line length we may have. Signed-off-by: Eugeniy Paltsev <Eugeniy.Paltsev@synopsys.com> Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com>

ARC: define ARCH_SLAB_MINALIGN = 8 The default value of ARCH_SLAB_MINALIGN in "include/linux/slab.h" is "__alignof__(unsigned long long)" which for ARC unexpectedly turns out to be 4. This is not a compiler bug, but as defined by ARC ABI [1] Thus slab allocator would allocate a struct which is 32-bit aligned, which is generally OK even if struct has long long members. There was however potetial problem when it had any atomic64_t which use LLOCKD/SCONDD instructions which are required by ISA to take 64-bit addresses. This is the problem we ran into [ 4.015732] EXT4-fs (mmcblk0p2): re-mounted.

Do note that atomic64_t is __attribute__((aligned(8)) which means gcc does generate 64-bit aligned references, relative to beginning of container struct. However the issue is if the container itself is not 64-bit aligned, atomic64_t ends up unaligned which is what this patch ensures.
