      sparc64: Validate linear D-TLB misses. · d8ed1d43
      David S. Miller 提交于
      When page alloc debugging is not enabled, we essentially accept any
      virtual address for linear kernel TLB misses.  But with kgdb, kernel
      address probing, and other facilities we can try to access arbitrary
      crap.
      
      So, make sure the address we miss on will translate to physical memory
      that actually exists.
      
      In order to make this work we have to embed the valid address bitmap
      into the kernel image.  And in order to make that less expensive we
      make an adjustment, in that the max physical memory address is
      decreased to "1 << 41", even on the chips that support a 42-bit
      physical address space.  We can do this because bit 41 indicates
      "I/O space" and thus covers non-memory ranges.
      
      The result of this is that:
      
      1) kpte_linear_bitmap shrinks from 2K to 1K in size
      
      2) we need 64K more for the valid address bitmap
      
      We can't let the valid address bitmap be dynamically allocated
      once we start using it to validate TLB misses, otherwise we have
      crazy issues to deal with wrt. recursive TLB misses and such.
      
      If we're in a TLB miss it could be the deepest trap level that's legal
      inside of the cpu.  So if we TLB miss referencing the bitmap, the cpu
      will be out of trap levels and enter RED state.
      
      To guard against out-of-range accesses to the bitmap, we have to check
      to make sure no bits in the physical address above bit 40 are set.  We
      could export and use last_valid_pfn for this check, but that's just an
      unnecessary extra memory reference.
      
      On the plus side of all this, since we load all of these translations
      into the special 4MB mapping TSB, and we check the TSB first for TLB
      misses, there should be absolutely no real cost for these new checks
      in the TLB miss path.

      sparc,sparc64: unify kernel/ · a88b5ba8
      Sam Ravnborg 提交于
      o Move all files from sparc64/kernel/ to sparc/kernel
        - rename as appropriate
      o Update sparc/Makefile to the changes
      o Update sparc/kernel/Makefile to include the sparc64 files
      
      NOTE: This commit changes link order on sparc64!
      
      Link order had to change for either of sparc32 and sparc64.
      And assuming sparc64 see more testing than sparc32 change link
      order on sparc64 where issues will be caught faster.

      [SPARC64]: Get DEBUG_PAGEALLOC working again. · d1acb421
      David S. Miller 提交于
      We have to make sure to use base-pagesize TLB entries even during the
      early transition period where we need TLB miss handling but don't have
      the kernel page tables setup yet for the linear region.
      
      Also, it is necessary therefore to not use the 4MB TSB for these
      translations, and instead use the normal kernel TSB.  This allows us
      to also get rid of the 4MB tsb for debug builds which shrinks the
      kernel a little bit.

      [SPARC64]: Fix boot failures on SunBlade-150 · c9c10830
      David S. Miller 提交于
      The sequence to move over to the Linux trap tables from
      the firmware ones needs to be more air tight.  It turns
      out that to be %100 safe we do need to be able to translate
      OBP mappings in our TLB miss handlers early.
      
      In order not to eat up a lot of kernel image memory with
      static page tables, just use the translations array in
      the OBP TLB miss handlers.  That solves the bulk of the
      problem.
      
      Furthermore, to make sure the OBP TLB miss path will work
      even before the fixed MMU globals are loaded, explicitly
      load %g1 to TLB_SFSR at the beginning of the i-TLB and
      d-TLB miss handlers.
      
      To ease the OBP TLB miss walking of the prom_trans[] array,
      we sort it then delete all of the non-OBP entries in there
      (for example, there are entries for the kernel image itself
      which we're not interested in at all).
      
      We also save about 32K of kernel image size with this change.
      Not a bad side effect :-)
      
      There are still some reasons why trampoline.S can't use the
      setup_trap_table() yet.  The most noteworthy are:
      
      1) OBP boots secondary processors with non-bias'd stack for
         some reason.  This is easily fixed by using a small bootup
         stack in the kernel image explicitly for this purpose.
      
      2) Doing a firmware call via the normal C call prom_set_trap_table()
         goes through the whole OBP enter/exit sequence that saves and
         restores OBP and Linux kernel state in the MMUs.  This path
         unfortunately does a "flush %g6" while loading up the OBP locked
         TLB entries for the firmware call.
      
         If we setup the %g6 in the trampoline.S code properly, that
         is in the PAGE_OFFSET linear mapping, but we're not on the
         kernel trap table yet so those addresses won't translate properly.
      
         One idea is to do a by-hand firmware call like we do in the
         early bootup code and elsewhere here in trampoline.S  But this
         fails as well, as aparently the secondary processors are not
         booted with OBP's special locked TLB entries loaded.  These
         are necessary for the firwmare to processes TLB misses correctly
         up until the point where we take over the trap table.
      
      This does need to be resolved at some point.

      [SPARC64]: Add CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC support. · 56425306
      David S. Miller 提交于
      The trick is that we do the kernel linear mapping TLB miss starting
      with an instruction sequence like this:
      
      	ba,pt		%xcc, kvmap_load
      	 xor		%g2, %g4, %g5
      
      succeeded by an instruction sequence which performs a full page table
      walk starting at swapper_pg_dir.
      
      We first take over the trap table from the firmware.  Then, using this
      constant PTE generation for the linear mapping area above, we build
      the kernel page tables for the linear mapping.
      
      After this is setup, we patch that branch above into a "nop", which
      will cause TLB misses to fall through to the full page table walk.
      
      With this, the page unmapping for CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC is trivial.
