Subject: [PATCH] mips: add 34Kf-64tlb fictitious cpu type like 34Kf but with
64 TLBs
In Yocto Project CI runs it was observed that test run
of 32 bit mips image takes almost twice longer than 64 bit
mips image with the same logical load and CI execution
hits timeout.
See https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13992
Yocto project uses 34Kf cpu type to run 32 bit mips image,
and MIPS64R2-generic cpu type to run 64 bit mips64 image.
Upon qemu behavior differences investigation between mips
and mips64 two prominent observations came up: under
logically similar load (same definition and configuration
of user-land image) in case of mips get_physical_address
function is called almost twice more often, meaning
twice more memory accesses involved in this case. Also
number of tlbwr instruction executed (r4k_helper_tlbwr
qemu function) almost 16 time bigger in mips case than in
mips64.
It turns out that 34Kf cpu has 16 TLBs, but in case of
MIPS64R2-generic it is 64 TLBs. So that explains why
some many more tlbwr had to be execute by kernel TLB refill
handler in case of 32 bit misp.
The idea of the fix is to come up with new 34Kf-64tlb fictitious
cpu type, that would behave exactly as 34Kf but it would
contain 64 TLBs to reduce TLB trashing. After all, adding
more TLBs to soft mmu is easy.
Experiment with some significant non-trvial load in Yocto
environment by running do_testimage load shows that 34Kf-64tlb
cpu performs 40% or so better than original 34Kf cpu wrt test
execution real time.
It is not ideal to have cpu type that does not exist in the
wild but given performance gains it seems to be justified.
