When I implemented TSC scaling originally, I chose a scale factor of 128
because it basically covered the range of devices we cared about without
going too high. I also only tested devices that had a TSC scale factor
from 19.2Mhz to 34Mhz. Turns out there is hardware that also has a 48Mhz
cycle counter, which cause them to effectively have a 6.1Ghz cycle
counter, which is kind of absurd.
Instead of a fixed scale, just calculate the amount of scaling we need
to get >= the minimum threshold of 1Ghz. This will change the shift from
7 to 5 or 6 for the faster cycle counter devices.
Of course if someone wants to know the scale factor they can still use
cpuid function 15h to know it.
Fixes#4026
PR #3980 is adding a feature to merge loadstores in to paired
loadstores, but it was using the incorrect atomic check to determine if
it can safely merge them or not. It was using the GPR atomic check
instead of the vector atomic check. While this would improve performance
on Apple Silicon with its hardware TSO implementation, it would have had
zero impact on Cortex and Oryon.
Instead split out the three config options to live as a boolean check in
the ContextImpl similar to how we disable "AtomicTSOEmulation". Removing
the various configs in the JIT and CPUID so that it queries from the
same context. This makes it clearer that if you are wanting the current
active configuration for memcpy, vector, or general atomic TSO
emulation, you should query one of those three getters.
This also fixes a weird edge case bug in the arm64 JIT where you could
have TSO emulation disable, but still have vector TSO enabled partially.
Just because half a config wasn't checked in {Load,Store}MemTSO for
vectors. If the global "TSOEnabled" option is disabled then TSO should
always be disabled.
Alyssa will be able to pull this in to #3980 once merged and get the
performance uplift on Cortex and Oryon, since our default configuration
is to have vector and memcpy TSO emulation disabled.
Instead of only enabling enhanced rep movs if software TSO is disabled,
Enable it if software tso is disabled OR memcpysettso is disabled. This
is because now we hit the fast path when memcpysettso is disabled alone
but global TSO is disabled.
Retested Hades and performance was fine in this configuration.
No need to wait for initialization on for this anymore.
Ever since Init was refactored to do basically no work, this hasn't been
necessary.
CPUID does need to still be initialized after HostFeatures though, so
need to ensure correct member ordering there.
Most CPUID routines return constant data, there are four that don't.
Some CPUID functions also need the leaf descriptor, so we need to
describe that as well.
Functions that don't return constant data:
- function 1Ah - Returns different data depending on current CPU core
- function 8000_000{2,3,4} - Different data based on CPU core
Functions that need leaf constprop:
- 4h, 7h, Dh, 4000_0001h, 8000_001Dh
It is not an external component, and it makes paths needlessly long.
Ryan seemed amenable to this when we discussed on IRC earlier.
