Do we actually want these DirectMap lines in the x86 /proc/meminfo? I can see they're interesting to CPA developers and TLB optimizers, but they don't fit its usual "where has all my memory gone?" usage. If they are to stay, here are some fixes. 1. On x86_32 without PAE, they're not 2M but 4M pages: no need to mess with the internal enum, but show the right name to users. 2. Many machines can never show anything but 0 for DirectMap1G, so suppress that line unless direct_gbpages are really enabled. 3. The unit in /proc/meminfo is kB not number of pages: HugePages messed that up, but they're an example to regret not to follow. 4. Once we use kB, it's easy to see that 1GB has gone missing (which explains why CONFIG_CPA_DEBUG=y soon wraps DirectMap2M negative): because head_64.S's level2_ident_pgt entries were not counted. My fix is not ideal, but works for more and for less than 1G, and avoids interfering with early bootup pagetable contortions.

Add information about the mapping state of the direct mapping to /proc/meminfo. I chose /proc/meminfo because that is where all the other memory statistics are too and it is a generally useful metric even outside debugging situations. A lot of split kernel pages means the kernel will run slower. This way we can see how many large pages are really used for it and how many are split. Useful for general insight into the kernel. v2: Add hotplug locking to 64bit to plug a very obscure theoretical race. 32bit doesn't need it because it doesn't support hotadd for lowmem.

x86 PAT: fix performance drop for glx, use UC minus for ioremap(), ioremap_nocache() and pci_mmap_page_range() Use UC_MINUS for ioremap(), ioremap_nocache() instead of strong UC. Once all the X drivers move to ioremap_wc(), we can go back to strong UC semantics for ioremap() and ioremap_nocache(). To avoid attribute aliasing issues, pci_mmap_page_range() will also use UC_MINUS for default non write-combining mapping request. Next steps: a) change all the video drivers using ioremap() or ioremap_nocache() and adding WC MTTR using mttr_add() to ioremap_wc() b) for strict usage, we can go back to strong uc semantics for ioremap() and ioremap_nocache() after some grace period for completing step-a. c) user level X server needs to use the appropriate method for setting up WC mapping (like using resourceX_wc sysfs file instead of adding MTRR for WC and using /dev/mem or resourceX under /sys) Signed-off-by: NSuresh Siddha <suresh.b.siddha@intel.com> Signed-off-by: NVenkatesh Pallipadi <venkatesh.pallipadi@intel.com> Signed-off-by: NIngo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: NThomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>

PAT |PCD ||PWT ||| 000 WB _PAGE_CACHE_WB 001 WC _PAGE_CACHE_WC 010 UC- _PAGE_CACHE_UC_MINUS 011 UC _PAGE_CACHE_UC We are effectively changing WT from boot time setting to WC. UC_MINUS is used to provide backward compatibility to existing /dev/mem users(X). reserve_memtype and free_memtype are new interfaces for maintaining alias-free mapping. It is currently implemented in a simple way with a linked list and not optimized. reserve and free tracks the effective memory type, as a result of PAT and MTRR setting rather than what is actually requested in PAT. pat_init piggy backs on mtrr_init as the rules for setting both pat and mtrr are same.

fix the 3D performance drop reported at: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10328 fb drivers are using ioremap()/ioremap_nocache(), followed by mtrr_add with WC attribute. Recent changes in page attribute code made both ioremap()/ioremap_nocache() mappings as UC (instead of previous UC-). This breaks the graphics performance, as the effective memory type is UC instead of expected WC. The correct way to fix this is to add ioremap_wc() (which uses UC- in the absence of PAT kernel support and WC with PAT) and change all the fb drivers to use this new ioremap_wc() API. We can take this correct and longer route for post 2.6.25. For now, revert back to the UC- behavior for ioremap/ioremap_nocache.

avoid over-eager large page splitup. When the target area needs to be split or is split already (ioremap) then the current code enforces the split of large mappings in the alias regions even if we could avoid it. Use a separate variable processed in the cpa_data structure to carry the number of pages which have been processed instead of reusing the numpages variable. This keeps numpages intact and gives the alias code a chance to keep large mappings intact. Signed-off-by: NThomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Signed-off-by: NIngo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

DEBUG_PAGEALLOC was not possible on 64-bit due to its early-bootup hardcoded reliance on PSE pages, and the unrobustness of the runtime splitup of large pages. The splitup ended in recursive calls to alloc_pages() when a page for a pte split was requested. Avoid the recursion with a preallocated page pool, which is used to split up large mappings and gets refilled in the return path of kernel_map_pages after the split has been done. The size of the page pool is adjusted to the available memory. This part just implements the page pool and the initialization w/o using it yet.
