      mm, thp: do not access mm->pmd_huge_pte directly · c389a250
      Kirill A. Shutemov 提交于
      Currently mm->pmd_huge_pte protected by page table lock.  It will not
      work with split lock.  We have to have per-pmd pmd_huge_pte for proper
      access serialization.
      
      For now, let's just introduce wrapper to access mm->pmd_huge_pte.

      mm: Only flush the TLB when clearing an accessible pte · 8d1acce4
      Rik van Riel 提交于
      If ptep_clear_flush() is called to clear a page table entry that is
      accessible anyway by the CPU, eg. a _PAGE_PROTNONE page table entry,
      there is no need to flush the TLB on remote CPUs.

      mm,generic: only flush the local TLB in ptep_set_access_flags · cef23d9d
      Rik van Riel 提交于
      The function ptep_set_access_flags is only ever used to upgrade
      access permissions to a page. That means the only negative side
      effect of not flushing remote TLBs is that other CPUs may incur
      spurious page faults, if they happen to access the same address,
      and still have a PTE with the old permissions cached in their
      TLB.
      
      Having another CPU maybe incur a spurious page fault is faster
      than always incurring the cost of a remote TLB flush, so replace
      the remote TLB flush with a purely local one.
      
      This should be safe on every architecture that correctly
      implements flush_tlb_fix_spurious_fault() to actually invalidate
      the local TLB entry that caused a page fault, as well as on
      architectures where the hardware invalidates TLB entries that
      cause page faults.
      
      In the unlikely event that you are hitting what appears to be
      an infinite loop of page faults, and 'git bisect' took you to
      this changeset, your architecture needs to implement
      flush_tlb_fix_spurious_fault to actually flush the TLB entry.

      thp: introduce pmdp_invalidate() · 46dcde73
      Gerald Schaefer 提交于
      On s390, a valid page table entry must not be changed while it is attached
      to any CPU.  So instead of pmd_mknotpresent() and set_pmd_at(), an IDTE
      operation would be necessary there.  This patch introduces the
      pmdp_invalidate() function, to allow architecture-specific
      implementations.

      thp: remove assumptions on pgtable_t type · e3ebcf64
      Gerald Schaefer 提交于
      The thp page table pre-allocation code currently assumes that pgtable_t is
      of type "struct page *".  This may not be true for all architectures, so
      this patch removes that assumption by replacing the functions
      prepare_pmd_huge_pte() and get_pmd_huge_pte() with two new functions that
      can be defined architecture-specific.
      
      It also removes two VM_BUG_ON checks for page_count() and page_mapcount()
      operating on a pgtable_t.  Apart from the VM_BUG_ON removal, there will be
      no functional change introduced by this patch.

      arch/tile: allow building Linux with transparent huge pages enabled · 73636b1a
      Chris Metcalf 提交于
      The change adds some infrastructure for managing tile pmd's more generally,
      using pte_pmd() and pmd_pte() methods to translate pmd values to and
      from ptes, since on TILEPro a pmd is really just a nested structure
      holding a pgd (aka pte).  Several existing pmd methods are moved into
      this framework, and a whole raft of additional pmd accessors are defined
      that are used by the transparent hugepage framework.
      
      The tile PTE now has a "client2" bit.  The bit is used to indicate a
      transparent huge page is in the process of being split into subpages.
      
      This change also fixes a generic bug where the return value of the
      generic pmdp_splitting_flush() was incorrect.

      mm/pgtable-generic.c: fix CONFIG_SWAP=n build · f95ba941
      Andrew Morton 提交于
      mips (and sparc32):
      
        In file included from arch/mips/include/asm/tlb.h:21,
                         from mm/pgtable-generic.c:9:
        include/asm-generic/tlb.h: In function `tlb_flush_mmu':
        include/asm-generic/tlb.h:76: error: implicit declaration of function `release_pages'
        include/asm-generic/tlb.h: In function `tlb_remove_page':
        include/asm-generic/tlb.h:105: error: implicit declaration of function `page_cache_release'
      
      free_pages_and_swap_cache() and free_page_and_swap_cache() are macros
      which call release_pages() and page_cache_release().  The obvious fix is
      to include pagemap.h in swap.h, where those macros are defined.  But that
      breaks sparc for weird reasons.
      
      So fix it within mm/pgtable-generic.c instead.

      fix non-x86 build failure in pmdp_get_and_clear · b3697c02
      Andrea Arcangeli 提交于
      pmdp_get_and_clear/pmdp_clear_flush/pmdp_splitting_flush were trapped as
      BUG() and they were defined only to diminish the risk of build issues on
      not-x86 archs and to be consistent with the generic pte methods previously
      defined in include/asm-generic/pgtable.h.
      
      But they are causing more trouble than they were supposed to solve, so
      it's simpler not to define them when THP is off.
      
      This is also correcting the export of pmdp_splitting_flush which is
      currently unused (x86 isn't using the generic implementation in
      mm/pgtable-generic.c and no other arch needs that [yet]).
