In the absence of PAT, PAGE_KERNEL_WC ends up mapping to a memory type that gets UC behavior even in the presence of a WC MTRR covering the area in question. By swapping to PAGE_KERNEL_UC_MINUS, we can get the actual behavior the caller wanted (WC if you can manage it, UC otherwise). This recovers the 40% performance improvement of using WC in the DRM to upload vertex data. Signed-off-by: NEric Anholt <eric@anholt.net> Signed-off-by: NH. Peter Anvin <hpa@zytor.com>

the RDC and ELAN platforms use slighly different PIT clocks, resulting in a timex.h hack that changes PIT_TICK_RATE during build time. But if a tester enables any of these platform support .config options, the PIT will be miscalibrated on standard PC platforms. So use one frequency - in a subsequent patch we'll add a quirk to allow x86 platforms to define different PIT frequencies. Signed-off-by: NIngo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

This is due to pgtable_page_ctor() doing the spin_lock_init(&page->ptl) which is overlaid with the {private, mapping} struct. union { struct { unsigned long private; struct address_space *mapping; }; spinlock_t ptl; struct kmem_cache *slab; struct page *first_page; }; Normally the spinlock is small enough to not stomp on page->mapping, but PREEMPT_RT=y has huge 'spin'locks. But lockdep kernels should also be able to trigger this splat, as the lock tracking code grows the spinlock to cover page->mapping. The obvious fix is calling pgtable_page_dtor() like the regular pte free path __pte_free_tlb() does. It seems all architectures except x86 and nm10300 already do this, and nm10300 doesn't seem to use pgtable_page_ctor(), which suggests it doesn't do SMP or simply doesnt do MMU at all or something.

pte_flags() was introduced as a new pvop in order to extract just the flags portion of a pte, which is a potentially cheaper operation than extracting the page number as well. It turns out this operation is not needed, because simply using a mask to extract the flags from a pte is sufficient for all current users.

Because of this bug, application mapping this RAM page through /dev/mem will die with "Corrupted page table at address xxxx" message in the kernel log and also the kernel identity mapping which maps the underlying RAM page gets converted to UC.

Impact: fix sporadic slowdowns and warning messages This patch fixes a performance issue reported by Linus on his Nehalem system. While Linus reverted the PAT patch (commit 58dab916) which exposed the issue, existing cpa() code can potentially still cause wrong(page attribute corruption) behavior. This patch also fixes the "WARNING: at arch/x86/mm/pageattr.c:560" that various people reported. In 64bit kernel, kernel identity mapping might have holes depending on the available memory and how e820 reports the address range covering the RAM, ACPI, PCI reserved regions. If there is a 2MB/1GB hole in the address range that is not listed by e820 entries, kernel identity mapping will have a corresponding hole in its 1-1 identity mapping. If cpa() happens on the kernel identity mapping which falls into these holes, existing code fails like this: __change_page_attr_set_clr() __change_page_attr() returns 0 because of if (!kpte). But doesn't set cpa->numpages and cpa->pfn. cpa_process_alias() uses uninitialized cpa->pfn (random value) which can potentially lead to changing the page attribute of kernel text/data, kernel identity mapping of RAM pages etc. oops! This bug was easily exposed by another PAT patch which was doing cpa() more often on kernel identity mapping holes (physical range between max_low_pfn_mapped and 4GB), where in here it was setting the cache disable attribute(PCD) for kernel identity mappings aswell. Fix cpa() to handle the kernel identity mapping holes.
