      powerpc: Call do_page_fault() with interrupts off · a546498f
      Benjamin Herrenschmidt 提交于
      We currently turn interrupts back to their previous state before
      calling do_page_fault(). This can be annoying when debugging as
      a bad fault will potentially have lost some processor state before
      getting into the debugger.
      
      We also end up calling some generic code with interrupts enabled
      such as notify_page_fault() with interrupts enabled, which could
      be unexpected.
      
      This changes our code to behave more like other architectures,
      and make the assembly entry code call into do_page_faults() with
      interrupts disabled. They are conditionally re-enabled from
      within do_page_fault() in the same spot x86 does it.
      
      While there, add the might_sleep() test in the case of a successful
      trylock of the mmap semaphore, again like x86.
      
      Also fix a bug in the existing assembly where r12 (_MSR) could get
      clobbered by C calls (the DTL accounting in the exception common
      macro and DISABLE_INTS) in some cases.

      powerpc: Rename mapping based RELOCATABLE to DYNAMIC_MEMSTART for BookE · 0f890c8d
      Suzuki Poulose 提交于
      The current implementation of CONFIG_RELOCATABLE in BookE is based
      on mapping the page aligned kernel load address to KERNELBASE. This
      approach however is not enough for platforms, where the TLB page size
      is large (e.g, 256M on 44x). So we are renaming the RELOCATABLE used
      currently in BookE to DYNAMIC_MEMSTART to reflect the actual method.
      
      The CONFIG_RELOCATABLE for PPC32(BookE) based on processing of the
      dynamic relocations will be introduced in the later in the patch series.
      
      This change would allow the use of the old method of RELOCATABLE for
      platforms which can afford to enforce the page alignment (platforms with
      smaller TLB size).
      
      Changes since v3:
      
      * Introduced a new config, NONSTATIC_KERNEL, to denote a kernel which is
        either a RELOCATABLE or DYNAMIC_MEMSTART(Suggested by: Josh Boyer)

      powerpc/32: Pass device tree address as u64 to machine_init · 6dece0eb
      Scott Wood 提交于
      u64 is used rather than phys_addr_t to keep things simple, as
      this is called from assembly code.
      
      Update callers to pass a 64-bit address in r3/r4.  Other unused
      register assignments that were once parameters to machine_init
      are dropped.
      
      For FSL BookE, look up the physical address of the device tree from the
      effective address passed in r3 by the loader.  This is required for
      situations where memory does not start at zero (due to AMP or IOMMU-less
      virtualization), and thus the IMA doesn't start at zero, and thus the
      device tree effective address does not equal the physical address.

      powerpc: Hugetlb for BookE · 41151e77
      Becky Bruce 提交于
      Enable hugepages on Freescale BookE processors.  This allows the kernel to
      use huge TLB entries to map pages, which can greatly reduce the number of
      TLB misses and the amount of TLB thrashing experienced by applications with
      large memory footprints.  Care should be taken when using this on FSL
      processors, as the number of large TLB entries supported by the core is low
      (16-64) on current processors.
      
      The supported set of hugepage sizes include 4m, 16m, 64m, 256m, and 1g.
      Page sizes larger than the max zone size are called "gigantic" pages and
      must be allocated on the command line (and cannot be deallocated).
      
      This is currently only fully implemented for Freescale 32-bit BookE
      processors, but there is some infrastructure in the code for
      64-bit BooKE.

      powerpc/fsl-booke: Fix InstructionTLBError execute permission check · 78e2e68a
      Li Yang 提交于
      In CONFIG_PTE_64BIT the PTE format has unique permission bits for user
      and supervisor execute.  However on !CONFIG_PTE_64BIT we overload the
      supervisor bit to imply user execute with _PAGE_USER set.  This allows
      us to use the same permission check mask for user or supervisor code on
      !CONFIG_PTE_64BIT.
      
      However, on CONFIG_PTE_64BIT we map _PAGE_EXEC to _PAGE_BAP_UX so we
      need a different permission mask based on the fault coming from a kernel
      address or user space.
      
      Without unique permission masks we see issues like the following with
      modules:
      
      Unable to handle kernel paging request for instruction fetch
      Faulting instruction address: 0xf938d040
