      powerpc/mm: Clean up memory hotplug failure paths · 1dace6c6
      David Gibson 提交于
      This makes a number of cleanups to handling of mapping failures during
      memory hotplug on Power:
      
      For errors creating the linear mapping for the hot-added region:
        * This is now reported with EFAULT which is more appropriate than the
          previous EINVAL (the failure is unlikely to be related to the
          function's parameters)
        * An error in this path now prints a warning message, rather than just
          silently failing to add the extra memory.
        * Previously a failure here could result in the region being partially
          mapped.  We now clean up any partial mapping before failing.
      
      For errors creating the vmemmap for the hot-added region:
         * This is now reported with EFAULT instead of causing a BUG() - this
           could happen for external reason (e.g. full hash table) so it's better
           to handle this non-fatally
         * An error message is also printed, so the failure won't be silent
         * As above a failure could cause a partially mapped region, we now
           clean this up. [mpe: move htab_remove_mapping() out of #ifdef
           CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG to enable this]

      powerpc/mm: Handle removing maybe-present bolted HPTEs · 27828f98
      David Gibson 提交于
      At the moment the hpte_removebolted callback in ppc_md returns void and
      will BUG_ON() if the hpte it's asked to remove doesn't exist in the first
      place.  This is awkward for the case of cleaning up a mapping which was
      partially made before failing.
      
      So, we add a return value to hpte_removebolted, and have it return ENOENT
      in the case that the HPTE to remove didn't exist in the first place.
      
      In the (sole) caller, we propagate errors in hpte_removebolted to its
      caller to handle.  However, we handle ENOENT specially, continuing to
      complete the unmapping over the specified range before returning the error
      to the caller.
      
      This means that htab_remove_mapping() will work sanely on a partially
      present mapping, removing any HPTEs which are present, while also returning
      ENOENT to its caller in case it's important there.
      
      There are two callers of htab_remove_mapping():
         - In remove_section_mapping() we already WARN_ON() any error return,
           which is reasonable - in this case the mapping should be fully
           present
         - In vmemmap_remove_mapping() we BUG_ON() any error.  We change that to
           just a WARN_ON() in the case of ENOENT, since failing to remove a
           mapping that wasn't there in the first place probably shouldn't be
           fatal.

      powerpc/mm: Clean up error handling for htab_remove_mapping · abd0a0e7
      David Gibson 提交于
      Currently, the only error that htab_remove_mapping() can report is -EINVAL,
      if removal of bolted HPTEs isn't implemeted for this platform.  We make
      a few clean ups to the handling of this:
      
       * EINVAL isn't really the right code - there's nothing wrong with the
         function's arguments - use ENODEV instead
       * We were also printing a warning message, but that's a decision better
         left up to the callers, so remove it
       * One caller is vmemmap_remove_mapping(), which will just BUG_ON() on
         error, making the warning message redundant, so no change is needed
         there.
       * The other caller is remove_section_mapping().  This is called in the
         memory hot remove path at a point after vmemmap_remove_mapping() so
         if hpte_removebolted isn't implemented, we'd expect to have already
         BUG()ed anyway.  Put a WARN_ON() here, in lieu of a printk() since this
         really shouldn't be happening.

      powerpc/mm: Differentiate between hugetlb and THP during page walk · 891121e6
      Aneesh Kumar K.V 提交于
      We need to properly identify whether a hugepage is an explicit or
      a transparent hugepage in follow_huge_addr(). We used to depend
      on hugepage shift argument to do that. But in some case that can
      result in wrong results. For ex:
      
      On finding a transparent hugepage we set hugepage shift to PMD_SHIFT.
      But we can end up clearing the thp pte, via pmdp_huge_get_and_clear.
      We do prevent reusing the pfn page via the usage of
      kick_all_cpus_sync(). But that happens after we updated the pte to 0.
      Hence in follow_huge_addr() we can find hugepage shift set, but transparent
      huge page check fail for a thp pte.
      
      NOTE: We fixed a variant of this race against thp split in commit
      691e95fd
      ("powerpc/mm/thp: Make page table walk safe against thp split/collapse")
      
      Without this patch, we may hit the BUG_ON(flags & FOLL_GET) in
      follow_page_mask occasionally.
      
      In the long term, we may want to switch ppc64 64k page size config to
      enable CONFIG_ARCH_WANT_GENERAL_HUGETLB

      powerpc/mm/thp: Make page table walk safe against thp split/collapse · 691e95fd
      Aneesh Kumar K.V 提交于
      We can disable a THP split or a hugepage collapse by disabling irq.
      We do send IPI to all the cpus in the early part of split/collapse,
      and disabling local irq ensure we don't make progress with
      split/collapse. If the THP is getting split we return NULL from
      find_linux_pte_or_hugepte(). For all the current callers it should be ok.
      We need to be careful if we want to use returned pte_t pointer outside
      the irq disabled region. W.r.t to THP split, the pfn remains the same,
      but then a hugepage collapse will result in a pfn change. There are
      few steps we can take to avoid a hugepage collapse.One way is to take page
      reference inside the irq disable region. Other option is to take
      mmap_sem so that a parallel collapse will not happen. We can also
      disable collapse by taking pmd_lock. Another method used by kvm
      subsystem is to check whether we had a mmu_notifer update in between
      using mmu_notifier_retry().

      mm/debug-pagealloc: make debug-pagealloc boottime configurable · 031bc574
      Joonsoo Kim 提交于
      Now, we have prepared to avoid using debug-pagealloc in boottime.  So
      introduce new kernel-parameter to disable debug-pagealloc in boottime, and
      makes related functions to be disabled in this case.
      
      Only non-intuitive part is change of guard page functions.  Because guard
      page is effective only if debug-pagealloc is enabled, turning off
      according to debug-pagealloc is reasonable thing to do.

      powerpc/mm: don't do tlbie for updatepp request with NO HPTE fault · aefa5688
      Aneesh Kumar K.V 提交于
      upatepp can get called for a nohpte fault when we find from the linux
      page table that the translation was hashed before. In that case
      we are sure that there is no existing translation, hence we could
      avoid doing tlbie.
      
      We could possibly race with a parallel fault filling the TLB. But
      that should be ok because updatepp is only ever relaxing permissions.
      We also look at linux pte permission bits when filling hash pte
      permission bits. We also hold the linux pte busy bits while
      inserting/updating a hashpte entry, hence a paralle update of
      linux pte is not possible. On the other hand mprotect involves
      ptep_modify_prot_start which cause a hpte invalidate and not updatepp.

      powerpc: Replace __get_cpu_var uses · 69111bac
      Christoph Lameter 提交于
      This still has not been merged and now powerpc is the only arch that does
      not have this change. Sorry about missing linuxppc-dev before.
      
      V2->V2
        - Fix up to work against 3.18-rc1
      
      __get_cpu_var() is used for multiple purposes in the kernel source. One of
      them is address calculation via the form &__get_cpu_var(x).  This calculates
      the address for the instance of the percpu variable of the current processor
      based on an offset.
      
      Other use cases are for storing and retrieving data from the current
      processors percpu area.  __get_cpu_var() can be used as an lvalue when
      writing data or on the right side of an assignment.
      
      __get_cpu_var() is defined as :
      
      __get_cpu_var() always only does an address determination. However, store
      and retrieve operations could use a segment prefix (or global register on
      other platforms) to avoid the address calculation.
      
      this_cpu_write() and this_cpu_read() can directly take an offset into a
      percpu area and use optimized assembly code to read and write per cpu
      variables.
      
      This patch converts __get_cpu_var into either an explicit address
      calculation using this_cpu_ptr() or into a use of this_cpu operations that
      use the offset.  Thereby address calculations are avoided and less registers
      are used when code is generated.
      
      At the end of the patch set all uses of __get_cpu_var have been removed so
      the macro is removed too.
      
      The patch set includes passes over all arches as well. Once these operations
      are used throughout then specialized macros can be defined in non -x86
      arches as well in order to optimize per cpu access by f.e.  using a global
      register that may be set to the per cpu base.
      
      Transformations done to __get_cpu_var()
      
      1. Determine the address of the percpu instance of the current processor.
      
      	DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y);
      	int *x = &__get_cpu_var(y);
      
          Converts to
      
      	int *x = this_cpu_ptr(&y);
      
      2. Same as #1 but this time an array structure is involved.
      
      	DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y[20]);
      	int *x = __get_cpu_var(y);
      
          Converts to
      
      	int *x = this_cpu_ptr(y);
      
      3. Retrieve the content of the current processors instance of a per cpu
      variable.
      
      	DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y);
      	int x = __get_cpu_var(y)
      
         Converts to
      
      	int x = __this_cpu_read(y);
      
      4. Retrieve the content of a percpu struct
      
      	DEFINE_PER_CPU(struct mystruct, y);
      	struct mystruct x = __get_cpu_var(y);
      
         Converts to
      
      	memcpy(&x, this_cpu_ptr(&y), sizeof(x));
      
      5. Assignment to a per cpu variable
      
      	DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y)
      	__get_cpu_var(y) = x;
      
         Converts to
      
      	__this_cpu_write(y, x);
      
      6. Increment/Decrement etc of a per cpu variable

      powerpc: Replace __get_cpu_var uses · 5828f666
      Christoph Lameter 提交于
      __get_cpu_var() is used for multiple purposes in the kernel source. One of
      them is address calculation via the form &__get_cpu_var(x).  This calculates
      the address for the instance of the percpu variable of the current processor
      based on an offset.
      
      Other use cases are for storing and retrieving data from the current
      processors percpu area.  __get_cpu_var() can be used as an lvalue when
      writing data or on the right side of an assignment.
      
      __get_cpu_var() is defined as :
      
      #define __get_cpu_var(var) (*this_cpu_ptr(&(var)))
      
      __get_cpu_var() always only does an address determination. However, store
      and retrieve operations could use a segment prefix (or global register on
      other platforms) to avoid the address calculation.
      
      this_cpu_write() and this_cpu_read() can directly take an offset into a
      percpu area and use optimized assembly code to read and write per cpu
      variables.
      
      This patch converts __get_cpu_var into either an explicit address
      calculation using this_cpu_ptr() or into a use of this_cpu operations that
      use the offset.  Thereby address calculations are avoided and less registers
      are used when code is generated.
      
      At the end of the patch set all uses of __get_cpu_var have been removed so
      the macro is removed too.
      
      The patch set includes passes over all arches as well. Once these operations
      are used throughout then specialized macros can be defined in non -x86
      arches as well in order to optimize per cpu access by f.e.  using a global
      register that may be set to the per cpu base.
      
      Transformations done to __get_cpu_var()
      
      1. Determine the address of the percpu instance of the current processor.
      
      	DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y);
      	int *x = &__get_cpu_var(y);
      
          Converts to
      
      	int *x = this_cpu_ptr(&y);
      
      2. Same as #1 but this time an array structure is involved.
      
      	DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y[20]);
      	int *x = __get_cpu_var(y);
      
          Converts to
      
      	int *x = this_cpu_ptr(y);
      
      3. Retrieve the content of the current processors instance of a per cpu
      variable.
      
      	DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y);
      	int x = __get_cpu_var(y)
      
         Converts to
      
      	int x = __this_cpu_read(y);
      
      4. Retrieve the content of a percpu struct
      
      	DEFINE_PER_CPU(struct mystruct, y);
      	struct mystruct x = __get_cpu_var(y);
      
         Converts to
      
      	memcpy(&x, this_cpu_ptr(&y), sizeof(x));
      
      5. Assignment to a per cpu variable
      
      	DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y)
      	__get_cpu_var(y) = x;
      
         Converts to
      
      	__this_cpu_write(y, x);
      
      6. Increment/Decrement etc of a per cpu variable
      
      	DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y);
      	__get_cpu_var(y)++
      
         Converts to
      
      	__this_cpu_inc(y)
      
      tj: Folded a fix patch.

      powerpc/mm: Check paca psize is up to date for huge mappings · 09567e7f
      Michael Ellerman 提交于
      We have a bug in our hugepage handling which exhibits as an infinite
      loop of hash faults. If the fault is being taken in the kernel it will
      typically trigger the softlockup detector, or the RCU stall detector.
      
      The bug is as follows:
      
       1. mmap(0xa0000000, ..., MAP_FIXED | MAP_HUGE_TLB | MAP_ANONYMOUS ..)
       2. Slice code converts the slice psize to 16M.
       3. The code on lines 539-540 of slice.c in slice_get_unmapped_area()
          synchronises the mm->context with the paca->context. So the paca slice
          mask is updated to include the 16M slice.
       3. Either:
          * mmap() fails because there are no huge pages available.
          * mmap() succeeds and the mapping is then munmapped.
          In both cases the slice psize remains at 16M in both the paca & mm.
       4. mmap(0xa0000000, ..., MAP_FIXED | MAP_ANONYMOUS ..)
       5. The slice psize is converted back to 64K. Because of the check on line 539
          of slice.c we DO NOT update the paca->context. The paca slice mask is now
          out of sync with the mm slice mask.
       6. User/kernel accesses 0xa0000000.
       7. The SLB miss handler slb_allocate_realmode() **uses the paca slice mask**
          to create an SLB entry and inserts it in the SLB.
      18. With the 16M SLB entry in place the hardware does a hash lookup, no entry
          is found so a data access exception is generated.
      19. The data access handler calls do_page_fault() -> handle_mm_fault().
      10. __handle_mm_fault() creates a THP mapping with do_huge_pmd_anonymous_page().
      11. The hardware retries the access, there is still nothing in the hash table
          so once again a data access exception is generated.
      12. hash_page() calls into __hash_page_thp() and inserts a mapping in the
          hash. Although the THP mapping maps 16M the hashing is done using 64K
          as the segment page size.
      13. hash_page() returns immediately after calling __hash_page_thp(), skipping
          over the code at line 1125. Resulting in the mismatch between the
          paca->context and mm->context not being detected.
      14. The hardware retries the access, the hash it generates using the 16M
          SLB entry does NOT match the hash we inserted.
      15. We take another data access and go into __hash_page_thp().
      16. We see a valid entry in the hpte_slot_array and so we call updatepp()
          which succeeds.
      17. Goto 14.
      
      We could fix this in two ways. The first would be to remove or modify
      the check on line 539 of slice.c.
      
      The second option is to cause the check of paca psize in hash_page() on
      line 1125 to also be done for THP pages.
      
      We prefer the latter, because the check & update of the paca psize is
      not done until we know it's necessary. It's also done only on the
      current cpu, so we don't need to IPI all other cpus.
      
      Without further rearranging the code, the simplest fix is to pull out
      the code that checks paca psize and call it in two places. Firstly for
      THP/hugetlb, and secondly for other mappings as before.
      
      Thanks to Dave Jones for trinity, which originally found this bug.

      KVM guest: Make pv trampoline code executable · b18db0b8
      Alexander Graf 提交于
      Our PV guest patching code assembles chunks of instructions on the fly when it
      encounters more complicated instructions to hijack. These instructions need
      to live in a section that we don't mark as non-executable, as otherwise we
      fault when jumping there.
      
      Right now we put it into the .bss section where it automatically gets marked
      as non-executable. Add a check to the NX setting function to ensure that we
      leave these particular pages executable.
