      ... instead of naked numbers.

Stuff in sysrq.c used to set it to 8 which is supposed to mean above
default level so set it to DEBUG instead as we're terminating/killing all
tasks and we want to be verbose there.

Also, correct the check in x86_64_start_kernel which should be >= as
we're clearly issuing the string there for all debug levels, not only
the magical 10.

      mm: x86 pgtable: require X86_64 for soft-dirty tracker · 2bf01f9f
      由 Cyrill Gorcunov 提交于 
      Tracking dirty status on 2 level pages requires very ugly macros and
taking into account how old the machines who can operate without PAE
mode only are, lets drop soft dirty tracker from them for code
simplicity (note I can't drop all the macros from 2 level pages by now
since _PAGE_BIT_PROTNONE and _PAGE_BIT_FILE are still used even without
tracker).

Linus proposed to completely rip off softdirty support on x86-32 (even
with PAE) and since for CRIU we're not planning to support native x86-32
mode, lets do that.

(Softdirty tracker is relatively new feature which is mostly used by
CRIU so I don't expect if such API change would cause problems for
userspace).

      mm: disable zone_reclaim_mode by default · 4f9b16a6
      由 Mel Gorman 提交于 
      When it was introduced, zone_reclaim_mode made sense as NUMA distances
punished and workloads were generally partitioned to fit into a NUMA
node.  NUMA machines are now common but few of the workloads are
NUMA-aware and it's routine to see major performance degradation due to
zone_reclaim_mode being enabled but relatively few can identify the
problem.

Those that require zone_reclaim_mode are likely to be able to detect
when it needs to be enabled and tune appropriately so lets have a
sensible default for the bulk of users.

This patch (of 2):

zone_reclaim_mode causes processes to prefer reclaiming memory from
local node instead of spilling over to other nodes.  This made sense
initially when NUMA machines were almost exclusively HPC and the
workload was partitioned into nodes.  The NUMA penalties were
sufficiently high to justify reclaiming the memory.  On current machines
and workloads it is often the case that zone_reclaim_mode destroys
performance but not all users know how to detect this.  Favour the
common case and disable it by default.  Users that are sophisticated
enough to know they need zone_reclaim_mode will detect it.

      cma: add placement specifier for "cma=" kernel parameter · 5ea3b1b2
      由 Akinobu Mita 提交于 
      Currently, "cma=" kernel parameter is used to specify the size of CMA,
but we can't specify where it is located.  We want to locate CMA below
4GB for devices only supporting 32-bit addressing on 64-bit systems
without iommu.

This enables to specify the placement of CMA by extending "cma=" kernel
parameter.

Examples:
 1. locate 64MB CMA below 4GB by "cma=64M@0-4G"
 2. locate 64MB CMA exact at 512MB by "cma=64M@512M"

Note that the DMA contiguous memory allocator on x86 assumes that
page_address() works for the pages to allocate.  So this change requires
to limit end address of contiguous memory area upto max_pfn_mapped to
prevent from locating it on highmem area by the argument of
dma_contiguous_reserve().

      x86: enable DMA CMA with swiotlb · 9c5a3621
      由 Akinobu Mita 提交于 
      The DMA Contiguous Memory Allocator support on x86 is disabled when
swiotlb config option is enabled.  So DMA CMA is always disabled on
x86_64 because swiotlb is always enabled.  This attempts to support for
DMA CMA with enabling swiotlb config option.

The contiguous memory allocator on x86 is integrated in the function
dma_generic_alloc_coherent() which is .alloc callback in nommu_dma_ops
for dma_alloc_coherent().

x86_swiotlb_alloc_coherent() which is .alloc callback in swiotlb_dma_ops
tries to allocate with dma_generic_alloc_coherent() firstly and then
swiotlb_alloc_coherent() is called as a fallback.

The main part of supporting DMA CMA with swiotlb is that changing
x86_swiotlb_free_coherent() which is .free callback in swiotlb_dma_ops
for dma_free_coherent() so that it can distinguish memory allocated by
dma_generic_alloc_coherent() from one allocated by
swiotlb_alloc_coherent() and release it with dma_generic_free_coherent()
which can handle contiguous memory.  This change requires making
is_swiotlb_buffer() global function.

This also needs to change .free callback in the dma_map_ops for amd_gart
and sta2x11, because these dma_ops are also using
dma_generic_alloc_coherent().

      x86: make dma_alloc_coherent() return zeroed memory if CMA is enabled · d92ef66c
      由 Akinobu Mita 提交于 
      This patchset enhances the DMA Contiguous Memory Allocator on x86.

Currently the DMA CMA is only supported with pci-nommu dma_map_ops and
furthermore it can't be enabled on x86_64.  But I would like to allocate
big contiguous memory with dma_alloc_coherent() and tell it to the device
that requires it, regardless of which dma mapping implementation is
actually used in the system.

So this makes it work with swiotlb and intel-iommu dma_map_ops, too.  And
this also extends "cma=" kernel parameter to specify placement constraint
by the physical address range of memory allocations.  For example, CMA
allocates memory below 4GB by "cma=64M@0-4G", it is required for the
devices only supporting 32-bit addressing on 64-bit systems without iommu.

This patch (of 5):

Calling dma_alloc_coherent() with __GFP_ZERO must return zeroed memory.

But when the contiguous memory allocator (CMA) is enabled on x86 and the
memory region is allocated by dma_alloc_from_contiguous(), it doesn't
return zeroed memory.  Because dma_generic_alloc_coherent() forgot to fill
the memory region with zero if it was allocated by
dma_alloc_from_contiguous()

Most implementations of dma_alloc_coherent() return zeroed memory
regardless of whether __GFP_ZERO is specified.  So this fixes it by
unconditionally zeroing the allocated memory region.

Alternatively, we could fix dma_alloc_from_contiguous() to return zeroed
out memory and remove memset() from all caller of it.  But we can't simply
remove the memset on arm because __dma_clear_buffer() is used there for
ensuring cache flushing and it is used in many places.  Of course we can
do redundant memset in dma_alloc_from_contiguous(), but I think this patch
is less impact for fixing this problem.

      x86, mm: probe memory block size for generic x86 64bit · 982792c7
      由 Yinghai Lu 提交于 
      On system with 2TiB ram, current x86_64 have 128M as section size, and
one memory_block only include one section.  So will have 16400 entries
under /sys/devices/system/memory/.

Current code try to use block id to find block pointer in /sys for any
section, and reuse that block pointer.  that finding will take some time
even after commit 7c243c71 ("mm: speedup in __early_pfn_to_nid")
that will skip the search in that case during booting up.

So solution could be increase block size just like SGI UV system did.
(harded code to 2g).

This patch is trying to probe the block size to make it match mmio remap
size.  for example, Intel Nehalem later system will have memory range [0,
TOML), [4g, TOMH].  If the memory hole is 2g and total is 128g, TOM will
be 2g, and TOM2 will be 130g.

We could use 2g as block size instead of default 128M.  That will reduce
number of entries in /sys/devices/system/memory/

On system 6TiB system will reduce boot time by 35 seconds.

      x86: define _PAGE_NUMA by reusing software bits on the PMD and PTE levels · c46a7c81
      由 Mel Gorman 提交于 
      _PAGE_NUMA is currently an alias of _PROT_PROTNONE to trap NUMA hinting
faults on x86.  Care is taken such that _PAGE_NUMA is used only in
situations where the VMA flags distinguish between NUMA hinting faults
and prot_none faults.  This decision was x86-specific and conceptually
it is difficult requiring special casing to distinguish between PROTNONE
and NUMA ptes based on context.

Fundamentally, we only need the _PAGE_NUMA bit to tell the difference
between an entry that is really unmapped and a page that is protected
for NUMA hinting faults as if the PTE is not present then a fault will
be trapped.

Swap PTEs on x86-64 use the bits after _PAGE_GLOBAL for the offset.
This patch shrinks the maximum possible swap size and uses the bit to
uniquely distinguish between NUMA hinting ptes and swap ptes.

      sh: Replace __get_cpu_var uses · c473b2c6
      由 Christoph Lameter 提交于 
      __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 :

#define __get_cpu_var(var) (*this_cpu_ptr(&(var)))

__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)

      hugetlb: restrict hugepage_migration_support() to x86_64 · c177c81e
      由 Naoya Horiguchi 提交于 
      Currently hugepage migration is available for all archs which support
pmd-level hugepage, but testing is done only for x86_64 and there're
bugs for other archs.  So to avoid breaking such archs, this patch
limits the availability strictly to x86_64 until developers of other
archs get interested in enabling this feature.

Simply disabling hugepage migration on non-x86_64 archs is not enough to
fix the reported problem where sys_move_pages() hits the BUG_ON() in
follow_page(FOLL_GET), so let's fix this by checking if hugepage
migration is supported in vma_migratable().
