      ARM: Fix pfn_valid() for sparse memory · b7cfda9f
      由 Russell King 提交于 
      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.

      ARM: 5691/1: fix cache aliasing issues between kmap() and kmap_atomic() with highmem · 7929eb9c
      由 Nicolas Pitre 提交于 
      Let's suppose a highmem page is kmap'd with kmap().  A pkmap entry is
used, the page mapped to it, and the virtual cache is dirtied.  Then
kunmap() is used which does virtually nothing except for decrementing a
usage count.

Then, let's suppose the _same_ page gets mapped using kmap_atomic().
It is therefore mapped onto a fixmap entry instead, which has a
different virtual address unaware of the dirty cache data for that page
sitting in the pkmap mapping.

Fortunately it is easy to know if a pkmap mapping still exists for that
page and use it directly with kmap_atomic(), thanks to kmap_high_get().

And actual testing with a printk in the added code path shows that this
condition is actually met *extremely* frequently.  Seems that we've been
quite lucky that things have worked so well with highmem so far.

      ARM: 5687/1: fix an oops with highmem · 13f96d8f
      由 Nicolas Pitre 提交于 
      In xdr_partial_copy_from_skb() there is that sequence:

		kaddr = kmap_atomic(*ppage, KM_SKB_SUNRPC_DATA);
		[...]
		flush_dcache_page(*ppage);
		kunmap_atomic(kaddr, KM_SKB_SUNRPC_DATA);

Mixing flush_dcache_page() and kmap_atomic() is a bit odd,
especially since kunmap_atomic() must deal with cache issues
already.  OTOH the non-highmem case must use flush_dcache_page()
as kunmap_atomic() becomes a no op with no cache maintenance.

Problem is that with highmem the implementation of kmap_atomic()
doesn't set page->virtual, and page_address(page) returns 0 in
that case. Here flush_dcache_page() calls __flush_dcache_page()
which calls __cpuc_flush_dcache_page(page_address(page)) resulting
in a kernel oops.

None of the kmap_atomic() implementations uses set_page_address().
Hence we can assume page_address() is always expected to return 0 in
that case. Let's conditionally call __cpuc_flush_dcache_page() only
when the page address is non zero, and perform that test only when
highmem is configured.
