Add newer helpers to make the function usage simpler. It is always recommended to use find_current_mm_pte() for walking the page table. If we cannot use find_current_mm_pte(), it should be documented why the said usage of __find_linux_pte() is safe against a parallel THP split. For now we have KVM code using __find_linux_pte(). This is because kvm code ends up calling __find_linux_pte() in real mode with MSR_EE=0 but with PACA soft_enabled = 1. We may want to fix that later and make sure we keep the MSR_EE and PACA soft_enabled in sync. When we do that we can switch kvm to use find_linux_pte().

Currently in hpte_need_flush() if there is no batch pending we always do a global TLB flush, which is inefficient if the mm has never run on another thread. Instead do the same check that __flush_tlb_pending() does and check if a local flush is sufficient when batch->active is false. Instead of open-coding it we use mm_is_thread_local().

This helps to make following hash only pte bits easier. We have kept _PAGE_CHG_MASK, _HPAGE_CHG_MASK and _PAGE_PROT_BITS as it is in this patch eventhough they use hash specific bits.

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.

If we changed base page size of the segment, either via sub_page_protect or via remap_4k_pfn, we do a demote_segment which doesn't flush the hash table entries. We do a lazy hash page table flush for all mapped pages in the demoted segment. This happens when we handle hash page fault for these pages. We use _PAGE_COMBO bit along with _PAGE_HASHPTE to indicate whether a pte is backed by 4K hash pte. If we find _PAGE_COMBO not set on the pte, that implies that we could possibly have older 64K hash pte entries in the hash page table and we need to invalidate those entries. Use _PAGE_COMBO to determine the page size with which we should invalidate the hash table entries on unmap.

We now have pmd entries covering 16MB range and the PMD table double its original size. We use the second half of the PMD table to deposit the pgtable (PTE page). The depoisted PTE page is further used to track the HPTE information. The information include [ secondary group | 3 bit hidx | valid ]. We use one byte per each HPTE entry. With 16MB hugepage and 64K HPTE we need 256 entries and with 4K HPTE we need 4096 entries. Both will fit in a 4K PTE page. On hugepage invalidate we need to walk the PTE page and invalidate all valid HPTEs. This patch implements necessary arch specific functions for THP support and also hugepage invalidate logic. These PMD related functions are intentionally kept similar to their PTE counter-part.

Commit f71dc176 'Make hpte_need_flush() correctly mask for multiple page sizes' introduced bug, which is triggered when a kernel with a 64k base page size is run on a system whose hardware does not 64k hash PTEs. In this case, we emulate 64k pages with multiple 4k hash PTEs, however in hpte_need_flush() we incorrectly only mask the hardware page size from the address, instead of the logical page size. This causes things to go wrong when we later attempt to iterate through the hardware subpages of the logical page. This patch corrects the error. It has been tested on pSeries bare metal by Michael Neuling. Signed-off-by: NDavid Gibson <dwg@au1.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: NBenjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

Currently, hpte_need_flush() only correctly flushes the given address for normal pages. Callers for hugepages are required to mask the address themselves. But hpte_need_flush() already looks up the page sizes for its own reasons, so this is a rather silly imposition on the callers. This patch alters it to mask based on the pagesize it has looked up itself, and removes the awkward masking code in the hugepage caller.

That patch used to just add a hook to page table flushing but pulling that string brought out a whole bunch of issues, so it now does that and more: - We now make the RCU batching of page freeing SMP only, as I believe it was intended initially. We make a few more things compile to nothing on !CONFIG_SMP - Some macros are turned into functions, though that forced me to out of line a few stuffs due to unsolvable include depenencies, however it's probably better that way anyway, it's not -that- critical code path. - 32-bit didn't call pte_free_finish() on tlb_flush() which means that it wouldn't push out the batch to RCU for delayed freeing when a bunch of page tables have been freed, they would just stay in there until the batch gets full. 64-bit BookE will use that hook to maintain the virtually linear page tables or the indirect entries in the TLB when using the HW loader.

The hstate or an mmu_huge_psizes index is passed to functions so that they know which huge page size they should use. The hugepage sizes 16M and 64K are setup(if available on the hardware) so that they don't have to be set on the boot cmd line in order to use them.

This makes the kernel use 1TB segments for all kernel mappings and for user addresses of 1TB and above, on machines which support them (currently POWER5+, POWER6 and PA6T). We detect that the machine supports 1TB segments by looking at the ibm,processor-segment-sizes property in the device tree. We don't currently use 1TB segments for user addresses < 1T, since that would effectively prevent 32-bit processes from using huge pages unless we also had a way to revert to using 256MB segments. That would be possible but would involve extra complications (such as keeping track of which segment size was used when HPTEs were inserted) and is not addressed here.

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.

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.

The compiler doesn't understand that BUG() never returns, so complains that psize isn't set. Just set it to the normal value, which seems to produce nice code and keeps gcc happy. Signed-off-by: NMichael Ellerman <michael@ellerman.id.au> Signed-off-by: NStephen Rothwell <sfr@canb.auug.org.au>

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.

This patch removes all self references and fixes references to files in the now defunct arch/ppc64 tree. I think this accomplises everything wanted, though there might be a few references I missed. Signed-off-by: NJon Mason <jdmason@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: NPaul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
