The SLUB allocator relies on struct page fields first_page and slab, overwritten by ptl when SPLIT_PTLOCK: so the SLUB allocator cannot then be used for the lowest level of pagetable pages. This was obstructing SLUB on PowerPC, which uses kmem_caches for its pagetables. So convert its pte level to use normal gfp pages (whereas pmd, pud and 64k-page pgd want partpages, so continue to use kmem_caches for pmd, pud and pgd).

This adds an option to spufs when the kernel is configured for 4K page to give it the ability to use 64K pages for SPE local store mappings. Currently, we are optimistic and try order 4 allocations when creating contexts. If that fails, the code will fallback to 4K automatically.

The basic issue is to be able to do what hugetlbfs does but with different page sizes for some other special filesystems; more specifically, my need is: - Huge pages - SPE local store mappings using 64K pages on a 4K base page size kernel on Cell - Some special 4K segments in 64K-page kernels for mapping a dodgy type of powerpc-specific infiniband hardware that requires 4K MMU mappings for various reasons I won't explain here. The main issues are: - To maintain/keep track of the page size per "segment" (as we can only have one page size per segment on powerpc, which are 256MB divisions of the address space). - To make sure special mappings stay within their allotted "segments" (including MAP_FIXED crap) - To make sure everybody else doesn't mmap/brk/grow_stack into a "segment" that is used for a special mapping Some of the necessary mechanisms to handle that were present in the hugetlbfs code, but mostly in ways not suitable for anything else. The patch relies on some changes to the generic get_unmapped_area() that just got merged. It still hijacks hugetlb callbacks here or there as the generic code hasn't been entirely cleaned up yet but that shouldn't be a problem. So what is a slice ? Well, I re-used the mechanism used formerly by our hugetlbfs implementation which divides the address space in "meta-segments" which I called "slices". The division is done using 256MB slices below 4G, and 1T slices above. Thus the address space is divided currently into 16 "low" slices and 16 "high" slices. (Special case: high slice 0 is the area between 4G and 1T). Doing so simplifies significantly the tracking of segments and avoids having to keep track of all the 256MB segments in the address space. While I used the "concepts" of hugetlbfs, I mostly re-implemented everything in a more generic way and "ported" hugetlbfs to it. Slices can have an associated page size, which is encoded in the mmu context and used by the SLB miss handler to set the segment sizes. The hash code currently doesn't care, it has a specific check for hugepages, though I might add a mechanism to provide per-slice hash mapping functions in the future. The slice code provide a pair of "generic" get_unmapped_area() (bottomup and topdown) functions that should work with any slice size. There is some trickiness here so I would appreciate people to have a look at the implementation of these and let me know if I got something wrong.

The code for demoting segments to 4K had some issues, like for example, when using _PAGE_4K_PFN flag, the first CPU to hit it would do the demotion, but other CPUs hitting the same page wouldn't properly flush their SLBs if mmu_ci_restriction isn't set. There are also potential issues with hash_preload not handling _PAGE_4K_PFN. All of these are non issues on current hardware but might bite us in the future. This patch thus fixes it by: - Taking the test comparing the mm and current CPU context page sizes to decide to flush SLBs out of the mmu_ci_restrictions test since that can also be triggered by _PAGE_4K_PFN pages - Due to the above being done all the time, demote_segment_4k doesn't need update the context and flush the SLB - demote_segment_4k can be static and doesn't need an EXPORT_SYMBOL - Making hash_preload ignore anything that has either _PAGE_4K_PFN or _PAGE_NO_CACHE set, thus avoiding duplication of the complicated logic in hash_page() (and possibly making hash_preload a little bit faster for the normal case).

In the process of rewriting the x86 setup code, I found a number of inaccuracies and outdated recommendations in the boot protocol documentation. Revamp to make it more up to date. In particular, the common use of the heap actually requires (slightly) more than 4K of heap plus stack, which is the recommended amount in the document; currently the code compensates by being smaller than specified, but we can't assume that will be true forever. Thus, recommend that if we have a modern bzImage kernel, that the bootloader maximizes the available space. Signed-off-by: NH.

The idea is to move more and more things into the pbm, with the eventual goal of eliminating the pci_controller_info entirely as there really isn't any need for it. This stage of the transformations requires some reworking of the PCI error interrupt handling. It might be tricky to get rid of the pci_controller_info parenting for a few reasons: 1) When we get an uncorrectable or correctable error we want to interrogate the IOMMU and streaming cache of both PBMs for error status. These errors come from the UPA front-end which is shared between the two PBM PCI bus segments. Historically speaking this is why I choose the datastructure hierarchy of pci_controller_info-->pci_pbm_info 2) The probing does a portid/devhandle match to look for the 'other' pbm, but this is entirely an artifact and can be eliminated trivially. What we could do to solve #1 is to have a "buddy" pointer from one pbm to another. Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
