fix the 3D performance drop reported at: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10328 fb drivers are using ioremap()/ioremap_nocache(), followed by mtrr_add with WC attribute. Recent changes in page attribute code made both ioremap()/ioremap_nocache() mappings as UC (instead of previous UC-). This breaks the graphics performance, as the effective memory type is UC instead of expected WC. The correct way to fix this is to add ioremap_wc() (which uses UC- in the absence of PAT kernel support and WC with PAT) and change all the fb drivers to use this new ioremap_wc() API. We can take this correct and longer route for post 2.6.25. For now, revert back to the UC- behavior for ioremap/ioremap_nocache.

Revert: commit 8be8f54b Author: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Date: Sat Feb 23 20:43:21 2008 +0100 x86: CPA: avoid split of alias mappings because it clearly mishandles the case when __change_page_attr(), called from __change_page_attr_set_clr(), changes cpa->processed to 1 and cpa_process_alias(cpa) is executed right after that. This crashes my x86-64 test box early in the boot process (ref. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10140#c4). Signed-off-by: NRafael J.

avoid over-eager large page splitup. When the target area needs to be split or is split already (ioremap) then the current code enforces the split of large mappings in the alias regions even if we could avoid it. Use a separate variable processed in the cpa_data structure to carry the number of pages which have been processed instead of reusing the numpages variable. This keeps numpages intact and gives the alias code a chance to keep large mappings intact. Signed-off-by: NThomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Signed-off-by: NIngo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

Use PF_MEMALLOC to prevent recursive calls in the DBEUG_PAGEALLOC case. This makes the code simpler and more robust against allocation failures. This fixes the following fallback to non-mmconfig: http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/2/20/551 http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10083 Also, for DEBUG_PAGEALLOC=n reduce the pool size to one page.

c_p_a() did not discover all aliases correctly.

Right now, we check only the first 4k page for static required protections. This does not take overlapping regions into account.

-
由 Thomas Gleixner 提交于
DEBUG_PAGEALLOC was not possible on 64-bit due to its early-bootup hardcoded reliance on PSE pages, and the unrobustness of the runtime splitup of large pages. The splitup ended in recursive calls to alloc_pages() when a page for a pte split was requested. Avoid the recursion with a preallocated page pool, which is used to split up large mappings and gets refilled in the return path of kernel_map_pages after the split has been done. The size of the page pool is adjusted to the available memory. This part just implements the page pool and the initialization w/o using it yet.

The .rodata section really should just be read only; the config option is there to make breaking up the 2Mb page an option (so people whos machines give more performance for the 2Mb case can opt to do so).

An Athlon 64 X2 test system showed hard hangs shortly after marking the kernel text read-only, if we tried to preserve largepages and changed the PSE entry from RW to RO. The pagetable code itself is correct, it's the CPU that locked up hard (and not even the NMI watchdog could punch through that hard hang).

When changing the attributes of a pte, we should use the PFN from the existing PTE rather than going through hoops calculating what we think it might have been; this is both fragile and totally unneeded. It also makes it more hairy to call any of these functions on non-direct maps for no good reason whatsover.

Right now, enforcing that the high mapping of the kernel text doesn't get the NX bit is done deep in the guts of CPA, rather than in the static_protection() function that enforces all other per-arch sanity checks.
