The implementation of huge_ptep_set_wrprotect() directly calls ptep_set_wrprotect() to mark a hugepte write protected. However this call is not appropriate on ppc64 kernels as this is a small page only implementation. This can lead to the hash not being flushed correctly when a mapping is being converted to COW, allowing processes to continue using the original copy. Currently huge_ptep_set_wrprotect() unconditionally calls ptep_set_wrprotect(). This is fine on ppc32 kernels as this call is generic. On 64 bit this is implemented as: pte_update(mm, addr, ptep, _PAGE_RW, 0); On ppc64 this last parameter is the page size and is passed directly on to hpte_need_flush(): hpte_need_flush(mm, addr, ptep, old, huge); And this directly affects the page size we pass to flush_hash_page(): flush_hash_page(vaddr, rpte, psize, ssize, 0); As this changes the way the hash is calculated we will flush the wrong pages, potentially leaving live hashes to the original page. Move the definition of huge_ptep_set_wrprotect() to the 32/64 bit specific headers.

This frees a PTE bit when using 64K pages on ppc64. This is done by getting rid of the separate _PAGE_HASHPTE bit. Instead, we just test if any of the 16 sub-page bits is set. For non-combo pages (ie. real 64K pages), we set SUB0 and the location encoding in that field.

This changes vmemmap to use a different region (region 0xf) of the address space, and to configure the page size of that region dynamically at boot. The problem with the current approach of always using 16M pages is that it's not well suited to machines that have small amounts of memory such as small partitions on pseries, or PS3's. In fact, on the PS3, failure to allocate the 16M page backing vmmemmap tends to prevent hotplugging the HV's "additional" memory, thus limiting the available memory even more, from my experience down to something like 80M total, which makes it really not very useable. The logic used by my match to choose the vmemmap page size is: - If 16M pages are available and there's 1G or more RAM at boot, use that size. - Else if 64K pages are available, use that - Else use 4K pages I've tested on a POWER6 (16M pages) and on an iSeries POWER3 (4K pages) and it seems to work fine. Note that I intend to change the way we organize the kernel regions & SLBs so the actual region will change from 0xf back to something else at one point, as I simplify the SLB miss handler, but that will be for a later patch.

s390 for one, cannot implement VM_MIXEDMAP with pfn_valid, due to their memory model (which is more dynamic than most). Instead, they had proposed to implement it with an additional path through vm_normal_page(), using a bit in the pte to determine whether or not the page should be refcounted: vm_normal_page() { ... if (unlikely(vma->vm_flags & (VM_PFNMAP|VM_MIXEDMAP))) { if (vma->vm_flags & VM_MIXEDMAP) { #ifdef s390 if (!mixedmap_refcount_pte(pte)) return NULL; #else if (!pfn_valid(pfn)) return NULL; #endif goto out; } ... } This is fine, however if we are allowed to use a bit in the pte to determine refcountedness, we can use that to _completely_ replace all the vma based schemes. So instead of adding more cases to the already complex vma-based scheme, we can have a clearly seperate and simple pte-based scheme (and get slightly better code generation in the process): vm_normal_page() { #ifdef s390 if (!mixedmap_refcount_pte(pte)) return NULL; return pte_page(pte); #else ... #endif } And finally, we may rather make this concept usable by any architecture rather than making it s390 only, so implement a new type of pte state for this. Unfortunately the old vma based code must stay, because some architectures may not be able to spare pte bits. This makes vm_normal_page a little bit more ugly than we would like, but the 2 cases are clearly seperate. So introduce a pte_special pte state, and use it in mm/memory.c. It is currently a noop for all architectures, so this doesn't actually result in any compiled code changes to mm/memory.o. BTW: I haven't put vm_normal_page() into arch code as-per an earlier suggestion. The reason is that, regardless of where vm_normal_page is actually implemented, the *abstraction* is still exactly the same. Also, while it depends on whether the architecture has pte_special or not, that is the only two possible cases, and it really isn't an arch specific function -- the role of the arch code should be to provide primitive functions and accessors with which to build the core code; pte_special does that. We do not want architectures to know or care about vm_normal_page itself, and we definitely don't want them being able to invent something new there out of sight of mm/ code. If we made vm_normal_page an arch function, then we have to make vm_insert_mixed (next patch) an arch function too. So I don't think moving it to arch code fundamentally improves any abstractions, while it does practically make the code more difficult to follow, for both mm and arch developers, and easier to misuse.

Some changes done a while ago to avoid pounding on ptep_set_access_flags and update_mmu_cache in some race situations break sun4c which requires update_mmu_cache() to always be called on minor faults. This patch reworks ptep_set_access_flags() semantics, implementations and callers so that it's now responsible for returning whether an update is necessary or not (basically whether the PTE actually changed). This allow fixing the sparc implementation to always return 1 on sun4c.

This rewrites pretty much from scratch the handling of MMIO and PIO space allocations on powerpc64. The main goals are: - Get rid of imalloc and use more common code where possible - Simplify the current mess so that PIO space is allocated and mapped in a single place for PCI bridges - Handle allocation constraints of PIO for all bridges including hot plugged ones within the 2GB space reserved for IO ports, so that devices on hotplugged busses will now work with drivers that assume IO ports fit in an int. - Cleanup and separate tracking of the ISA space in the reserved low 64K of IO space. No ISA -> Nothing mapped there. I booted a cell blade with IDE on PIO and MMIO and a dual G5 so far, that's it :-) With this patch, all allocations are done using the code in mm/vmalloc.c, though we use the low level __get_vm_area with explicit start/stop constraints in order to manage separate areas for vmalloc/vmap, ioremap, and PCI IOs. This greatly simplifies a lot of things, as you can see in the diffstat of that patch :-) A new pair of functions pcibios_map/unmap_io_space() now replace all of the previous code that used to manipulate PCI IOs space. The allocation is done at mapping time, which is now called from scan_phb's, just before the devices are probed (instead of after, which is by itself a bug fix). The only other caller is the PCI hotplug code for hot adding PCI-PCI bridges (slots). imalloc is gone, as is the "sub-allocation" thing, but I do beleive that hotplug should still work in the sense that the space allocation is always done by the PHB, but if you unmap a child bus of this PHB (which seems to be possible), then the code should properly tear down all the HPTE mappings for that area of the PHB allocated IO space. I now always reserve the first 64K of IO space for the bridge with the ISA bus on it. I have moved the code for tracking ISA in a separate file which should also make it smarter if we ever are capable of hot unplugging or re-plugging an ISA bridge. This should have a side effect on platforms like powermac where VGA IOs will no longer work. This is done on purpose though as they would have worked semi-randomly before. The idea at this point is to isolate drivers that might need to access those and fix them by providing a proper function to obtain an offset to the legacy IOs of a given bus.

Currently, all 32-bit powerpc platforms use asm-ppc/pgtable.h and asm-ppc/pgalloc.h, even when otherwise compiled with ARCH=powerpc. Those asm-ppc files are a fairly nasty tangle of #ifdefs including a bunch of things which shouldn't be necessary any more in arch/powerpc. Cleaning up that mess is going to take a while, but this patch is a first step. It separates the asm-powerpc/pg{alloc,table}.h into 64 bit and 32 bit versions in asm-powerpc, which the basic .h files in asm-powerpc select based on config. We make a few tiny tweaks to the innards of the files along the way, making the outermost ifdefs (double-inclusion protection and __KERNEL__) a little cleaner, and #including asm-generic/pgtable.h from the top-level asm-powerpc/pgtable.h (since both the old 32-bit and 64-bit versions ended with such an #include).

BenH's commit a741e679 in powerpc.git, although (AFAICT) only intended to affect ppc64, also has side-effects which break 44x. I think 40x, 8xx and Freescale Book E are also affected, though I haven't tested them. The problem lies in unconditionally removing flush_tlb_pending() from the versions of flush_tlb_mm(), flush_tlb_range() and flush_tlb_kernel_range() used on ppc64 - which are also used the embedded platforms mentioned above. The patch below cleans up the convoluted #ifdef logic in tlbflush.h, in the process restoring the necessary flushes for the software TLB platforms. There are three sets of definitions for the flushing hooks: the software TLB versions (revised to avoid using names which appear to related to TLB batching), the 32-bit hash based versions (external functions) amd the 64-bit hash based versions (which implement batching). It also moves the declaration of update_mmu_cache() to always be in tlbflush.h (previously it was in tlbflush.h except for PPC64, where it was in pgtable.h). Booted on Ebony (440GP) and compiled for 64-bit and 32-bit multiplatform.

The current tlb flush code on powerpc 64 bits has a subtle race since we lost the page table lock due to the possible faulting in of new PTEs after a previous one has been removed but before the corresponding hash entry has been evicted, which can leads to all sort of fatal problems. This patch reworks the batch code completely. It doesn't use the mmu_gather stuff anymore. Instead, we use the lazy mmu hooks that were added by the paravirt code. They have the nice property that the enter/leave lazy mmu mode pair is always fully contained by the PTE lock for a given range of PTEs. Thus we can guarantee that all batches are flushed on a given CPU before it drops that lock. We also generalize batching for any PTE update that require a flush. Batching is now enabled on a CPU by arch_enter_lazy_mmu_mode() and disabled by arch_leave_lazy_mmu_mode(). The code epects that this is always contained within a PTE lock section so no preemption can happen and no PTE insertion in that range from another CPU. When batching is enabled on a CPU, every PTE updates that need a hash flush will use the batch for that flush.

One of the changes necessary for shared page tables is to standardize the pxx_page macros. pte_page and pmd_page have always returned the struct page associated with their entry, while pte_page_kernel and pmd_page_kernel have returned the kernel virtual address. pud_page and pgd_page, on the other hand, return the kernel virtual address. Shared page tables needs pud_page and pgd_page to return the actual page structures. There are very few actual users of these functions, so it is simple to standardize their usage. Since this is basic cleanup, I am submitting these changes as a standalone patch. Per Hugh Dickins' comments about it, I am also changing the pxx_page_kernel macros to pxx_page_vaddr to clarify their meaning.

Some POWER5+ machines can do 64k hardware pages for normal memory but not for cache-inhibited pages. This patch lets us use 64k hardware pages for most user processes on such machines (assuming the kernel has been configured with CONFIG_PPC_64K_PAGES=y). User processes start out using 64k pages and get switched to 4k pages if they use any non-cacheable mappings. With this, we use 64k pages for the vmalloc region and 4k pages for the imalloc region. If anything creates a non-cacheable mapping in the vmalloc region, the vmalloc region will get switched to 4k pages. I don't know of any driver other than the DRM that would do this, though, and these machines don't have AGP. When a region gets switched from 64k pages to 4k pages, we do not have to clear out all the 64k HPTEs from the hash table immediately. We use the _PAGE_COMBO bit in the Linux PTE to indicate whether the page was hashed in as a 64k page or a set of 4k pages. If hash_page is trying to insert a 4k page for a Linux PTE and it sees that it has already been inserted as a 64k page, it first invalidates the 64k HPTE before inserting the 4k HPTE. The hash invalidation routines also use the _PAGE_COMBO bit, to determine whether to look for a 64k HPTE or a set of 4k HPTEs to remove. With those two changes, we can tolerate a mix of 4k and 64k HPTEs in the hash table, and they will all get removed when the address space is torn down.

free_pgtables() has special logic to call hugetlb_free_pgd_range() instead of the normal free_pgd_range() on hugepage VMAs. However, the test it uses to do so is incorrect: it calls is_hugepage_only_range on a hugepage sized range at the start of the vma. is_hugepage_only_range() will return true if the given range has any intersection with a hugepage address region, and in this case the given region need not be hugepage aligned. So, for example, this test can return true if called on, say, a 4k VMA immediately preceding a (nicely aligned) hugepage VMA. At present we get away with this because the powerpc version of hugetlb_free_pgd_range() is just a call to free_pgd_range(). On ia64 (the only other arch with a non-trivial is_hugepage_only_range()) we get away with it for a different reason; the hugepage area is not contiguous with the rest of the user address space, and VMAs are not permitted in between, so the test can't return a false positive there. Nonetheless this should be fixed. We do that in the patch below by replacing the is_hugepage_only_range() test with an explicit test of the VMA using is_vm_hugetlb_page(). This in turn changes behaviour for platforms where is_hugepage_only_range() returns false always (everything except powerpc and ia64). We address this by ensuring that hugetlb_free_pgd_range() is defined to be identical to free_pgd_range() (instead of a no-op) on everything except ia64. Even so, it will prevent some otherwise possible coalescing of calls down to free_pgd_range(). Since this only happens for hugepage VMAs, removing this small optimization seems unlikely to cause any trouble. This patch causes no regressions on the libhugetlbfs testsuite - ppc64 POWER5 (8-way), ppc64 G5 (2-way) and i386 Pentium M (UP).

On ppc64, we independently define VMALLOCBASE and VMALLOC_START to be the same thing: the start of the vmalloc() area at 0xd000000000000000. VMALLOC_START is used much more widely, including in generic code, so this patch gets rid of the extraneous VMALLOCBASE. This does require moving the definitions of region IDs from page_64.h to pgtable.h, but they don't clearly belong in the former rather than the latter, anyway. While we're moving them, clean up the definitions of the REGION_IDs: - Abolish REGION_SIZE, it was only used once, to define REGION_MASK anyway - Define the specific region ids in terms of the REGION_ID() macro. - Define KERNEL_REGION_ID in terms of PAGE_OFFSET rather than KERNELBASE. It amounts to the same thing, but conceptually this is about the region of the linear mapping (which starts at PAGE_OFFSET) rather than of the kernel text itself (which is at KERNELBASE).

Change the phys_mem_access_prot() function to take a pfn instead of an address. This allows mmap64() to work on /dev/mem for addresses above 4G on 32-bit architectures. We start with a pfn in mmap_mem(), so there's no need to convert to an address; in fact, it's actively bad, since the conversion can overflow when the address is above 4G. Similarly fix the ppc32 page_is_ram() function to avoid a conversion to an address by directly comparing to max_pfn. Working with max_pfn instead of high_memory fixes page_is_ram() to give the right answer for highmem pages.

Implement 4-level pagetables for ppc64 This patch implements full four-level page tables for ppc64, thereby extending the usable user address range to 44 bits (16T). The patch uses a full page for the tables at the bottom and top level, and a quarter page for the intermediate levels. It uses full 64-bit pointers at every level, thus also increasing the addressable range of physical memory. This patch also tweaks the VSID allocation to allow matching range for user addresses (this halves the number of available contexts) and adds some #if and BUILD_BUG sanity checks.

Currently ppc64 has two mm_structs for the kernel, init_mm and also ioremap_mm. The latter really isn't necessary: this patch abolishes it, instead restricting vmallocs to the lower 1TB of the init_mm's range and placing io mappings in the upper 1TB. This simplifies the code in a number of places and eliminates an unecessary set of pagetables. It also tweaks the unmap/free path a little, allowing us to remove the unmap_im_area() set of page table walkers, replacing them with unmap_vm_area().

This patch started as simply removing a few never-used macros from asm-ppc64/pgtable.h, then kind of grew. It now makes a bunch of cleanups to the ppc64 low-level header files (with corresponding changes to .c files where necessary) such as: - Abolishing never-used macros - Eliminating multiple #defines with the same purpose - Removing pointless macros (cases where just expanding the macro everywhere turns out clearer and more sensible) - Removing some cases where macros which could be defined in terms of each other weren't - Moving imalloc() related definitions from pgtable.h to their own header file (imalloc.h) - Re-arranging headers to group things more logically - Moving all VSID allocation related things to mmu.h, instead of being split between mmu.h and mmu_context.h - Removing some reserved space for flags from the PMD - we're not using it. - Fix some bugs which broke compile with STRICT_MM_TYPECHECKS.

ia64 and ppc64 had hugetlb_free_pgtables functions which were no longer being called, and it wasn't obvious what to do about them. The ppc64 case turns out to be easy: the associated tables are noted elsewhere and freed later, safe to either skip its hugetlb areas or go through the motions of freeing nothing. Since ia64 does need a special case, restore to ppc64 the special case of skipping them. The ia64 hugetlb case has been broken since pgd_addr_end went in, though it probably appeared to work okay if you just had one such area; in fact it's been broken much longer if you consider a long munmap spanning from another region into the hugetlb region. In the ia64 hugetlb region, more virtual address bits are available than in the other regions, yet the page tables are structured the same way: the page at the bottom is larger. Here we need to scale down each addr before passing it to the standard free_pgd_range. Was about to write a hugely_scaled_down macro, but found htlbpage_to_page already exists for just this purpose. Fixed off-by-one in ia64 is_hugepage_only_range. Uninline free_pgd_range to make it available to ia64. Make sure the vma-gathering loop in free_pgtables cannot join a hugepage_only_range to any other (safe to join huges? probably but don't bother).

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
