      powerpc/mm: Differentiate between hugetlb and THP during page walk · 891121e6
      由 Aneesh Kumar K.V 提交于 
      We need to properly identify whether a hugepage is an explicit or
a transparent hugepage in follow_huge_addr(). We used to depend
on hugepage shift argument to do that. But in some case that can
result in wrong results. For ex:

On finding a transparent hugepage we set hugepage shift to PMD_SHIFT.
But we can end up clearing the thp pte, via pmdp_huge_get_and_clear.
We do prevent reusing the pfn page via the usage of
kick_all_cpus_sync(). But that happens after we updated the pte to 0.
Hence in follow_huge_addr() we can find hugepage shift set, but transparent
huge page check fail for a thp pte.

NOTE: We fixed a variant of this race against thp split in commit
691e95fd
("powerpc/mm/thp: Make page table walk safe against thp split/collapse")

Without this patch, we may hit the BUG_ON(flags & FOLL_GET) in
follow_page_mask occasionally.

In the long term, we may want to switch ppc64 64k page size config to
enable CONFIG_ARCH_WANT_GENERAL_HUGETLB

      powerpc/mm/thp: Make page table walk safe against thp split/collapse · 691e95fd
      由 Aneesh Kumar K.V 提交于 
      We can disable a THP split or a hugepage collapse by disabling irq.
We do send IPI to all the cpus in the early part of split/collapse,
and disabling local irq ensure we don't make progress with
split/collapse. If the THP is getting split we return NULL from
find_linux_pte_or_hugepte(). For all the current callers it should be ok.
We need to be careful if we want to use returned pte_t pointer outside
the irq disabled region. W.r.t to THP split, the pfn remains the same,
but then a hugepage collapse will result in a pfn change. There are
few steps we can take to avoid a hugepage collapse.One way is to take page
reference inside the irq disable region. Other option is to take
mmap_sem so that a parallel collapse will not happen. We can also
disable collapse by taking pmd_lock. Another method used by kvm
subsystem is to check whether we had a mmu_notifer update in between
using mmu_notifier_retry().

      mm/debug-pagealloc: make debug-pagealloc boottime configurable · 031bc574
      由 Joonsoo Kim 提交于 
      Now, we have prepared to avoid using debug-pagealloc in boottime.  So
introduce new kernel-parameter to disable debug-pagealloc in boottime, and
makes related functions to be disabled in this case.

Only non-intuitive part is change of guard page functions.  Because guard
page is effective only if debug-pagealloc is enabled, turning off
according to debug-pagealloc is reasonable thing to do.

      powerpc/mm: don't do tlbie for updatepp request with NO HPTE fault · aefa5688
      由 Aneesh Kumar K.V 提交于 
      upatepp can get called for a nohpte fault when we find from the linux
page table that the translation was hashed before. In that case
we are sure that there is no existing translation, hence we could
avoid doing tlbie.

We could possibly race with a parallel fault filling the TLB. But
that should be ok because updatepp is only ever relaxing permissions.
We also look at linux pte permission bits when filling hash pte
permission bits. We also hold the linux pte busy bits while
inserting/updating a hashpte entry, hence a paralle update of
linux pte is not possible. On the other hand mprotect involves
ptep_modify_prot_start which cause a hpte invalidate and not updatepp.

We use randbox_access_bench written by Anton.

      powerpc: Replace __get_cpu_var uses · 69111bac
      由 Christoph Lameter 提交于 
      This still has not been merged and now powerpc is the only arch that does
not have this change. Sorry about missing linuxppc-dev before.

V2->V2
  - Fix up to work against 3.18-rc1

__get_cpu_var() is used for multiple purposes in the kernel source. One of
them is address calculation via the form &__get_cpu_var(x).  This calculates
the address for the instance of the percpu variable of the current processor
based on an offset.

Other use cases are for storing and retrieving data from the current
processors percpu area.  __get_cpu_var() can be used as an lvalue when
writing data or on the right side of an assignment.

__get_cpu_var() is defined as :

__get_cpu_var() always only does an address determination. However, store
and retrieve operations could use a segment prefix (or global register on
other platforms) to avoid the address calculation.

this_cpu_write() and this_cpu_read() can directly take an offset into a
percpu area and use optimized assembly code to read and write per cpu
variables.

This patch converts __get_cpu_var into either an explicit address
calculation using this_cpu_ptr() or into a use of this_cpu operations that
use the offset.  Thereby address calculations are avoided and less registers
are used when code is generated.

At the end of the patch set all uses of __get_cpu_var have been removed so
the macro is removed too.

The patch set includes passes over all arches as well. Once these operations
are used throughout then specialized macros can be defined in non -x86
arches as well in order to optimize per cpu access by f.e.  using a global
register that may be set to the per cpu base.

Transformations done to __get_cpu_var()

1. Determine the address of the percpu instance of the current processor.

	DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y);
	int *x = &__get_cpu_var(y);

    Converts to

	int *x = this_cpu_ptr(&y);

2. Same as #1 but this time an array structure is involved.

	DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y[20]);
	int *x = __get_cpu_var(y);

    Converts to

	int *x = this_cpu_ptr(y);

3. Retrieve the content of the current processors instance of a per cpu
variable.

	DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y);
	int x = __get_cpu_var(y)

   Converts to

	int x = __this_cpu_read(y);

4. Retrieve the content of a percpu struct

	DEFINE_PER_CPU(struct mystruct, y);
	struct mystruct x = __get_cpu_var(y);

   Converts to

	memcpy(&x, this_cpu_ptr(&y), sizeof(x));

5. Assignment to a per cpu variable

	DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y)
	__get_cpu_var(y) = x;

   Converts to

	__this_cpu_write(y, x);

6. Increment/Decrement etc of a per cpu variable

	DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y);
	__get_cpu_var(y)++

   Converts to

	__this_cpu_inc(y)

      powerpc/mm: Check paca psize is up to date for huge mappings · 09567e7f
      由 Michael Ellerman 提交于 
      We have a bug in our hugepage handling which exhibits as an infinite
loop of hash faults. If the fault is being taken in the kernel it will
typically trigger the softlockup detector, or the RCU stall detector.

The bug is as follows:

 1. mmap(0xa0000000, ..., MAP_FIXED | MAP_HUGE_TLB | MAP_ANONYMOUS ..)
 2. Slice code converts the slice psize to 16M.
 3. The code on lines 539-540 of slice.c in slice_get_unmapped_area()
    synchronises the mm->context with the paca->context. So the paca slice
    mask is updated to include the 16M slice.
 3. Either:
    * mmap() fails because there are no huge pages available.
    * mmap() succeeds and the mapping is then munmapped.
    In both cases the slice psize remains at 16M in both the paca & mm.
 4. mmap(0xa0000000, ..., MAP_FIXED | MAP_ANONYMOUS ..)
 5. The slice psize is converted back to 64K. Because of the check on line 539
    of slice.c we DO NOT update the paca->context. The paca slice mask is now
    out of sync with the mm slice mask.
 6. User/kernel accesses 0xa0000000.
 7. The SLB miss handler slb_allocate_realmode() **uses the paca slice mask**
    to create an SLB entry and inserts it in the SLB.
18. With the 16M SLB entry in place the hardware does a hash lookup, no entry
    is found so a data access exception is generated.
19. The data access handler calls do_page_fault() -> handle_mm_fault().
10. __handle_mm_fault() creates a THP mapping with do_huge_pmd_anonymous_page().
11. The hardware retries the access, there is still nothing in the hash table
    so once again a data access exception is generated.
12. hash_page() calls into __hash_page_thp() and inserts a mapping in the
    hash. Although the THP mapping maps 16M the hashing is done using 64K
    as the segment page size.
13. hash_page() returns immediately after calling __hash_page_thp(), skipping
    over the code at line 1125. Resulting in the mismatch between the
    paca->context and mm->context not being detected.
14. The hardware retries the access, the hash it generates using the 16M
    SLB entry does NOT match the hash we inserted.
15. We take another data access and go into __hash_page_thp().
16. We see a valid entry in the hpte_slot_array and so we call updatepp()
    which succeeds.
17. Goto 14.

We could fix this in two ways. The first would be to remove or modify
the check on line 539 of slice.c.

The second option is to cause the check of paca psize in hash_page() on
line 1125 to also be done for THP pages.

We prefer the latter, because the check & update of the paca psize is
not done until we know it's necessary. It's also done only on the
current cpu, so we don't need to IPI all other cpus.

Without further rearranging the code, the simplest fix is to pull out
the code that checks paca psize and call it in two places. Firstly for
THP/hugetlb, and secondly for other mappings as before.

Thanks to Dave Jones for trinity, which originally found this bug.

encounters more complicated instructions to hijack. These instructions need
to live in a section that we don't mark as non-executable, as otherwise we

Right now we put it into the .bss section where it automatically gets marked
as non-executable. Add a check to the NX setting function to ensure that we

      powerpc: Fix kdump hang issue on p8 with relocation on exception enabled. · 429d2e83
      由 Mahesh Salgaonkar 提交于 
      On p8 systems, with relocation on exception feature enabled we are seeing
kdump kernel hang at interrupt vector 0xc*4400. The reason is, with this
feature enabled, exception are raised with MMU (IR=DR=1) ON with the
default offset of 0xc*4000. Since exception is raised in virtual mode it
requires the vector region to be executable without which it fails to
fetch and execute instruction at 0xc*4xxx. For default kernel since kernel
is loaded at real 0, the htab mappings sets the entire kernel text region
executable. But for relocatable kernel (e.g. kdump case) we only copy
interrupt vectors down to real 0 and never marked that region as
executable because in p7 and below we always get exception in real mode.

This patch fixes this issue by marking htab mapping range as executable
that overlaps with the interrupt vector region for relocatable kernel.

Thanks to Ben who helped me to debug this issue and find the root cause.
