      parisc: Add Huge Page and HUGETLBFS support · 736d2169
      Helge Deller 提交于
      This patch adds huge page support to allow userspace to allocate huge
      pages and to use hugetlbfs filesystem on 32- and 64-bit Linux kernels.
      A later patch will add kernel support to map kernel text and data on
      huge pages.
      
      The only requirement is, that the kernel needs to be compiled for a
      PA8X00 CPU (PA2.0 architecture). Older PA1.X CPUs do not support
      variable page sizes. 64bit Kernels are compiled for PA2.0 by default.
      
      Technically on parisc multiple physical huge pages may be needed to
      emulate standard 2MB huge pages.

      mm/hugetlb: add more arch-defined huge_pte functions · 106c992a
      Gerald Schaefer 提交于
      Commit abf09bed ("s390/mm: implement software dirty bits")
      introduced another difference in the pte layout vs.  the pmd layout on
      s390, thoroughly breaking the s390 support for hugetlbfs.  This requires
      replacing some more pte_xxx functions in mm/hugetlbfs.c with a
      huge_pte_xxx version.
      
      This patch introduces those huge_pte_xxx functions and their generic
      implementation in asm-generic/hugetlb.h, which will now be included on
      all architectures supporting hugetlbfs apart from s390.  This change
      will be a no-op for those architectures.

      sparc64: Fix tsb_grow() in atomic context. · 0fbebed6
      David S. Miller 提交于
      If our first THP installation for an MM is via the set_pmd_at() done
      during khugepaged's collapsing we'll end up in tsb_grow() trying to do
      a GFP_KERNEL allocation with several locks held.
      
      Simply using GFP_ATOMIC in this situation is not the best option
      because we really can't have this fail, so we'd really like to keep
      this an order 0 GFP_KERNEL allocation if possible.
      
      Also, doing the TSB allocation from khugepaged is a really bad idea
      because we'll allocate it potentially from the wrong NUMA node in that
      context.
      
      So what we do is defer the hugepage TSB allocation until the first TLB
      miss we take on a hugepage.  This is slightly tricky because we have
      to handle two unusual cases:
      
      1) Taking the first hugepage TLB miss in the window trap handler.
         We'll call the winfix_trampoline when that is detected.
      
      2) An initial TSB allocation via TLB miss races with a hugetlb
         fault on another cpu running the same MM.  We handle this by
         unconditionally loading the TSB we see into the current cpu
         even if it's non-NULL at hugetlb_setup time.

      sparc64: Support transparent huge pages. · 9e695d2e
      David Miller 提交于
      This is relatively easy since PMD's now cover exactly 4MB of memory.
      
      Our PMD entries are 32-bits each, so we use a special encoding.  The
      lowest bit, PMD_ISHUGE, determines the interpretation.  This is possible
      because sparc64's page tables are purely software entities so we can use
      whatever encoding scheme we want.  We just have to make the TLB miss
      assembler page table walkers aware of the layout.
      
      set_pmd_at() works much like set_pte_at() but it has to operate in two
      page from a table of non-huge PTEs, so we have to queue up TLB flushes
      based upon what mappings are valid in the PTE table.  In the second regime
      we are going from huge-page to non-huge-page, and in that case we need
      only queue up a single TLB flush to push out the huge page mapping.
      
      We still have 5 bits remaining in the huge PMD encoding so we can very
      likely support any new pieces of THP state tracking that might get added
      in the future.
      
      With lots of help from Johannes Weiner.

      mm: hugetlb: add arch hook for clearing page flags before entering pool · 5d3a551c
      Will Deacon 提交于
      The core page allocator ensures that page flags are zeroed when freeing
      pages via free_pages_check.  A number of architectures (ARM, PPC, MIPS)
      rely on this property to treat new pages as dirty with respect to the data
      cache and perform the appropriate flushing before mapping the pages into
      userspace.
      
      This can lead to cache synchronisation problems when using hugepages,
      since the allocator keeps its own pool of pages above the usual page
      allocator and does not reset the page flags when freeing a page into the
      pool.
      
      This patch adds a new architecture hook, arch_clear_hugepage_flags, so
      that architectures which rely on the page flags being in a particular
      state for fresh allocations can adjust the flags accordingly when a page
      is freed into the pool.

      sparc, sparc64: use arch/sparc/include · a439fe51
      Sam Ravnborg 提交于
      The majority of this patch was created by the following script:
      
      ***
      ASM=arch/sparc/include/asm
      mkdir -p $ASM
      git mv include/asm-sparc64/ftrace.h $ASM
      git rm include/asm-sparc64/*
      git mv include/asm-sparc/* $ASM
      sed -ie 's/asm-sparc64/asm/g' $ASM/*
      sed -ie 's/asm-sparc/asm/g' $ASM/*
      ***
      
      The rest was an update of the top-level Makefile to use sparc
      for header files when sparc64 is being build.
      And a small fixlet to pick up the correct unistd.h from
      sparc64 code.
