While looking at some asm dump for an unrelated change, Eric
noticed in the following stats count increment code:

    50b8:       81 3c 01 f8     lwz     r9,504(r28)
    50bc:       81 5c 01 fc     lwz     r10,508(r28)
    50c0:       31 4a 00 01     addic   r10,r10,1
    50c4:       7d 29 01 94     addze   r9,r9
    50c8:       91 3c 01 f8     stw     r9,504(r28)
    50cc:       91 5c 01 fc     stw     r10,508(r28)

that a 64 bit counter was used on ppc-32 without sync
and hence the "ethtool -S" output was racy.

Here we convert all the values to use atomic64_t so that
the output will always be consistent.

At least it seems that this conversion results in fewer asm
instructions, as apparently addze and the double lwz/stw are
not generated anymore. Hopefully it's faster too :P

Strange, could you show us these asm instructions ?

Ok, I'm looking over gfar_clean_rx_ring's asm code, with and w/o this
patch. They are difficult to compare as asm code changed considerably,
the initial version having more lines.
The first thing I notice is that the initial ver has 13 'addic'
instructions, and the new version has 7.

Now taking the code around the last 'addic' instruction (from the
gfar_clean_rx_ring function):

Initial version looks like this:

     5024:	4b ff ff ac 	b       4fd0 <gfar_clean_rx_ring+0x450>
     5028:	81 5d 06 30 	lwz     r10,1584(r29)
     502c:	81 7d 06 34 	lwz     r11,1588(r29)
     5030:	31 6b 00 01 	addic   r11,r11,1
     5034:	7d 4a 01 94 	addze   r10,r10
     5038:	91 5d 06 30 	stw     r10,1584(r29)
     503c:	91 7d 06 34 	stw     r11,1588(r29)
     5040:	4b ff fe fc 	b       4f3c <gfar_clean_rx_ring+0x3bc>

New version looks like this:

     4ff8:	4b ff fd a8 	b       4da0 <gfar_clean_rx_ring+0x1ec>
     4ffc:	80 1c 00 a0 	lwz     r0,160(r28)
     5000:	38 60 00 00 	li      r3,0
     5004:	80 a1 00 18 	lwz     r5,24(r1)
     5008:	38 80 00 01 	li      r4,1
     500c:	30 00 00 01 	addic   r0,r0,1
     5010:	90 1c 00 a0 	stw     r0,160(r28)
     5014:	48 00 00 01 	bl      5014 <gfar_clean_rx_ring+0x460>
     5018:	4b ff ff 4c 	b       4f64 <gfar_clean_rx_ring+0x3b0>


I have the whole function's asm excepts, if needed.

I guess you are not looking at the right spot.

32bit powerpc probably use the generic atomic64

Your kernel should have an atomic64_add() function (in lib/atomic64.c)
and gianfar should call it.

This is certainly expensive, but these counters are not in fast path.

If they were in fast path, include/linux/u64_stats_sync.h would be a
better choice.
