The primary aim of this patchset is to remove the pgprot_default and prot_sect_default global variables and rely strictly on predefined values. The original goal was to be able to run SMP kernels on UP hardware by not setting the Shareability bit. However, it is unlikely to see UP ARMv8 hardware and even if we do, the Shareability bit is no longer assumed to disable cacheable accesses. A side effect is that the device mappings now have the Shareability attribute set. The hardware, however, should ignore it since Device accesses are always Outer Shareable. Following the removal of the two global variables, there is some PROT_* macro reshuffling and cleanup, including the __PAGE_* macros (replaced by PAGE_*).

Fix for the arm64 kern_addr_valid() function to recognize virtual addresses in the kernel logical memory map. The function fails as written because it does not check whether the addresses in that region are mapped at the pmd level to 2MB or 512MB pages, continues the page table walk to the pte level, and issues a garbage value to pfn_valid(). Tested on 4K-page and 64K-page kernels. Signed-off-by: NDave Anderson <anderson@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: NCatalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com>

Add support for early IO or memory mappings which are needed before the normal ioremap() is usable. This also adds fixmap support for permanent fixed mappings such as that used by the earlyprintk device register region.

Presently, paging_init() calls init_mem_pgprot() to initialize pgprot values used by macros such as PAGE_KERNEL, PAGE_KERNEL_EXEC, etc. The new fixmap and early_ioremap support also needs to use these macros before paging_init() is called. This patch moves the init_mem_pgprot() call out of paging_init() and into setup_arch() so that pgprot_default gets initialized in time for fixmap and early_ioremap.

With the 64K page size configuration, __create_page_tables in head.S maps enough memory to get started but using 64K pages rather than 512M sections with a single pgd/pud/pmd entry pointing to a pte table. create_mapping() may override the pgd/pud/pmd table entry with a block (section) one if the RAM size is more than 512MB and aligned correctly. For the end of this block to be accessible, the old TLB entry must be invalidated.

The map_mem() function limits the current memblock limit to PGDIR_SIZE (the initial swapper_pg_dir mapping) to avoid create_mapping() allocating memory from unmapped areas. However, if the first block is within PGDIR_SIZE and not ending on a PMD_SIZE boundary, when 4K page configuration is enabled, create_mapping() will try to allocate a pte page. Such page may be returned by memblock_alloc() from the end of such bank (or any subsequent bank within PGDIR_SIZE) which is not mapped yet. The patch limits the current memblock limit to the aligned end of the first bank and gradually increases it as more memory is mapped. It also ensures that the start of the first bank is aligned to PMD_SIZE to avoid pte page allocation for this mapping.

In paging_init the memblock limit is set to restrict any addresses returned by early_alloc to fit within the initial direct kernel mapping in swapper_pg_dir. This allows map_mem to allocate puds, pmds and ptes from the initial direct kernel mapping. The limit stays low after paging_init() though, meaning any bootmem allocations will be from a restricted subset of memory. Gigabyte huge pages, for instance, are normally allocated from bootmem as their order (18) is too large for the default buddy allocator (MAX_ORDER = 11). This patch restores the memblock limit when map_mem has finished, allowing gigabyte huge pages (and other objects) to be allocated from all of bootmem.

The sparse code, when asking the architecture to populate the vmemmap, specifies the section range as a starting page and a number of pages. This is an awkward interface, because none of the arch-specific code actually thinks of the range in terms of 'struct page' units and always translates it to bytes first. In addition, later patches mix huge page and regular page backing for the vmemmap. For this, they need to call vmemmap_populate_basepages() on sub-section ranges with PAGE_SIZE and PMD_SIZE in mind. But these are not necessarily multiples of the 'struct page' size and so this unit is too coarse. Just translate the section range into bytes once in the generic sparse code, then pass byte ranges down the stack.

Introduce a new API vmemmap_free() to free and remove vmemmap pagetables. Since pagetable implements are different, each architecture has to provide its own version of vmemmap_free(), just like vmemmap_populate(). Note: vmemmap_free() is not implemented for ia64, ppc, s390, and sparc.

This patch adds support for "earlyprintk=" parameter on the kernel command line. The format is: earlyprintk=<name>[,<addr>][,<options>] where <name> is the name of the (UART) device, e.g. "pl011", <addr> is the I/O address. The <options> aren't currently used. The mapping of the earlyprintk device is done very early during kernel boot and there are restrictions on which functions it can call. A special early_io_map() function is added which creates the mapping from the pre-defined EARLY_IOBASE to the device I/O address passed via the kernel parameter. The pgd entry corresponding to EARLY_IOBASE is pre-populated in head.S during kernel boot. Only PL011 is currently supported and it is assumed that the interface is already initialised by the boot loader before the kernel is started.

This patch contains the initialisation of the memory blocks, MMU attributes and the memory map. Only five memory types are defined: Device nGnRnE (equivalent to Strongly Ordered), Device nGnRE (classic Device memory), Device GRE, Normal Non-cacheable and Normal Cacheable. Cache policies are supported via the memory attributes register (MAIR_EL1) and only affect the Normal Cacheable mappings. This patch also adds the SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP initialisation.
