This patch applies to PAGE_MASK, PMD_MASK, and PGDIR_MASK, where forcing unsigned long math truncates the mask at the 32-bits. This clearly does bad things on PAE systems. This patch fixes this problem by defining these masks as signed quantities. We then rely on sign extension to do the right thing.

This patch removes support for ARMv3 CPUs, which haven't worked properly for quite some time (see the FIXME comment in arch/arm/mm/fault.c). The only V3 parts left is the cache model for ARMv3, which is needed for some odd reason by ARM740T CPUs, and being able to build with -march=armv3, which is required for the RiscPC platform due to its bus structure.

The current user mapping for the vectors page is inserted as a `horrible hack vma' into each task via arch_setup_additional_pages. This causes problems with the MM subsystem and vm_normal_page, as described here: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/1/14/55 Following the suggestion from Hugh in the above thread, this patch uses the gate_vma for the vectors user mapping, therefore consolidating the horrible hack VMAs into one.

This patch introduces the pgtable-3level*.h files with definitions specific to the LPAE page table format (3 levels of page tables). Each table is 4KB and has 512 64-bit entries. An entry can point to a 40-bit physical address. The young, write and exec software bits share the corresponding hardware bits (negated). Other software bits use spare bits in the PTE. The patch also changes some variable types from unsigned long or int to pteval_t or pgprot_t. Signed-off-by: NCatalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com>

In commit eb33575c ("[ARM] Double check memmap is actually valid with a memmap has unexpected holes V2"), a new function, memmap_valid_within, was introduced to mmzone.h so that holes in the memmap which pass pfn_valid in SPARSEMEM configurations can be detected and avoided. The fix to this problem checks that the pfn <-> page linkages are correct by calculating the page for the pfn and then checking that page_to_pfn on that page returns the original pfn. Unfortunately, in SPARSEMEM configurations, this results in reading from the page flags to determine the correct section. Since the memmap here has been freed, junk is read from memory and the check is no longer robust. In the best case, reading from /proc/pagetypeinfo will give you the wrong answer. In the worst case, you get SEGVs, Kernel OOPses and hung CPUs. Furthermore, ioremap implementations that use pfn_valid to disallow the remapping of normal memory will break. This patch allows architectures to provide their own pfn_valid function instead of using the default implementation used by sparsemem. The architecture-specific version is aware of the memmap state and will return false when passed a pfn for a freed page within a valid section.

On OMAP platforms, some people want to declare to segment up the memory between the kernel and a separate application such that there is a hole in the middle of the memory as far as Linux is concerned. However, they want to be able to mmap() the hole. This currently causes problems, because update_mmu_cache() thinks that there are valid struct pages for the "hole". Fix this by making pfn_valid() slightly more expensive, by checking whether the PFN is contained within the meminfo array.

We used to override the copy_user_page() function. However, this is not only inefficient, it also causes additional complexity for highmem support, since we convert from a struct page to a kernel direct mapped address and back to a struct page again. Moreover, with highmem support, we end up pointlessly setting up kmap entries for pages which we're going to remap. So, push the kmapping down into the copypage implementation files where it's required. Signed-off-by: NRussell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>

On 32-bit architectures PAGE_ALIGN() truncates 64-bit values to the 32-bit boundary. For example: u64 val = PAGE_ALIGN(size); always returns a value < 4GB even if size is greater than 4GB. The problem resides in PAGE_MASK definition (from include/asm-x86/page.h for example): #define PAGE_SHIFT 12 #define PAGE_SIZE (_AC(1,UL) << PAGE_SHIFT) #define PAGE_MASK (~(PAGE_SIZE-1)) ... #define PAGE_ALIGN(addr) (((addr)+PAGE_SIZE-1)&PAGE_MASK) The "~" is performed on a 32-bit value, so everything in "and" with PAGE_MASK greater than 4GB will be truncated to the 32-bit boundary. Using the ALIGN() macro seems to be the right way, because it uses typeof(addr) for the mask. Also move the PAGE_ALIGN() definitions out of include/asm-*/page.h in include/linux/mm.h.

由 Martin Schwidefsky 提交于
Background: I've implemented 1K/2K page tables for s390. These sub-page page tables are required to properly support the s390 virtualization instruction with KVM. The SIE instruction requires that the page tables have 256 page table entries (pte) followed by 256 page status table entries (pgste). The pgstes are only required if the process is using the SIE instruction. The pgstes are updated by the hardware and by the hypervisor for a number of reasons, one of them is dirty and reference bit tracking. To avoid wasting memory the standard pte table allocation should return 1K/2K (31/64 bit) and 2K/4K if the process is using SIE. Problem: Page size on s390 is 4K, page table size is 1K or 2K. That means the s390 version for pte_alloc_one cannot return a pointer to a struct page. Trouble is that with the CONFIG_HIGHPTE feature on x86 pte_alloc_one cannot return a pointer to a pte either, since that would require more than 32 bit for the return value of pte_alloc_one (and the pte * would not be accessible since its not kmapped). Solution: The only solution I found to this dilemma is a new typedef: a pgtable_t. For s390 pgtable_t will be a (pte *) - to be introduced with a later patch. For everybody else it will be a (struct page *). The additional problem with the initialization of the ptl lock and the NR_PAGETABLE accounting is solved with a constructor pgtable_page_ctor and a destructor pgtable_page_dtor. The page table allocation and free functions need to call these two whenever a page table page is allocated or freed. pmd_populate will get a pgtable_t instead of a struct page pointer. To get the pgtable_t back from a pmd entry that has been installed with pmd_populate a new function pmd_pgtable is added. It replaces the pmd_page call in free_pte_range and apply_to_pte_range.

Majorily based on Hyok Choi's patches, this fixes up the asm-arm header files for mmuless systems. Over and above Hyok's patches: - nommu.h merged into mmu.h (it's only a structure) - nommu_context.h is essentially the same as mmu_context.h, but without the MM switching code. so there's no point having separate files. Also, in memory.h, there's no point #ifndef'ing PHYS_OFFSET and END_MEM - both CONFIG_DRAM_BASE and CONFIG_DRAM_SIZE will always be set by the configuration scripts. Other files have minor formatting changes, but are essentially the same. Hyok's original patches were signed off thusly: Signed-off-by: NHyok S.

Patch from Lennert Buytenhek This patch adds support for the new XScale v3 core. This is an ARMv5 ISA core with the following additions: - L2 cache - I/O coherency support (on select chipsets) - Low-Locality Reference cache attributes (replaces mini-cache) - Supersections (v6 compatible) - 36-bit addressing (v6 compatible) - Single instruction cache line clean/invalidate - LRU cache replacement (vs round-robin) I attempted to merge the XSC3 support into proc-xscale.S, but XSC3 cores have separate errata and have to handle things like L2, so it is simpler to keep it separate. L2 cache support is currently a build option because the L2 enable bit must be set before we enable the MMU and there is no easy way to capture command line parameters at this point. There are still optimizations that can be done such as using LLR for copypage (in theory using the exisiting mini-cache code) but those can be addressed down the road.

Patch from Nicolas Pitre Although ARM is still using 32-bit pointers, version 5 and later versions of the ARM architecture introduced the ldrd and strd instructions to move 64-bit data which must be 64-bit aligned in memory, and the EABI includes new constraints on structure data alignment to allow for the compiler to use those instructions. This means that any slab allocation must start on a 64-bit boundary which is not equivalent to BYTES_PER_WORD, especially on those architecture versions that implements the ldrd/strd instructions. Overriding the default alignment disables some slab debug features. If those debug features are really needed then the kernel will have to be compiled for version 4 of the ARM architecture.
