This free up 11 bits in pte_t. In the later patch we also change the pte_t format so that we can start supporting migration pte at pmd level. We now track 4k subpage valid bit as below If we have _PAGE_COMBO set, we override the _PAGE_F_GIX_SHIFT and _PAGE_F_SECOND. Together we have 4 bits, each of them used to indicate whether any of the 4 4k subpage in that group is valid. ie, [ group 1 bit ] [ group 2 bit ] ..... [ group 4 ] [ subpage 1 - 4] [ subpage 5- 8] ..... [ subpage 13 - 16] We still track each 4k subpage slot number and secondary hash information in the second half of pgtable_t. Removing the subpage tracking have some significant overhead on aim9 and ebizzy benchmark and to support THP with 4K subpage, we do need a pgtable_t of 4096 bytes.

We have confusing functions to clear pmd, pmd_clear_* and pmd_clear. Add _huge_ to pmdp_clear functions so that we are clear that they operate on hugepage pte. We don't bother about other functions like pmdp_set_wrprotect, pmdp_clear_flush_young, because they operate on PTE bits and hence indicate they are operating on hugepage ptes Signed-off-by: NAneesh Kumar K.V <aneesh.kumar@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Acked-by: NKirill A.

Architectures like ppc64 [1] need to do special things while clearing pmd before a collapse. For them this operation is largely different from a normal hugepage pte clear. Hence add a separate function to clear pmd before collapse. After this patch pmdp_* functions operate only on hugepage pte, and not on regular pmd_t values pointing to page table. [1] ppc64 needs to invalidate all the normal page pte mappings we already have inserted in the hardware hash page table. But before doing that we need to make sure there are no parallel hash page table insert going on. So we need to do a kick_all_cpus_sync() before flushing the older hash table entries. By moving this to a separate function we capture these details and mention how it is different from a hugepage pte clear. This patch is a cleanup and only does code movement for clarity. There should not be any change in functionality. Signed-off-by: NAneesh Kumar K.V <aneesh.kumar@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Acked-by: NKirill A.

Serialize against find_linux_pte_or_hugepte() which does lock-less lookup in page tables with local interrupts disabled. For huge pages it casts pmd_t to pte_t. Since the format of pte_t is different from pmd_t we want to prevent transit from pmd pointing to page table to pmd pointing to huge page (and back) while interrupts are disabled. We clear pmd to possibly replace it with page table pointer in different code paths. So make sure we wait for the parallel find_linux_pte_or_hugepage() to finish. Without this patch, a find_linux_pte_or_hugepte() running in parallel to __split_huge_zero_page_pmd() or do_huge_pmd_wp_page_fallback() or zap_huge_pmd() can run into the above issue. With __split_huge_zero_page_pmd() and do_huge_pmd_wp_page_fallback() we clear the hugepage pte before inserting the pmd entry with a regular pgtable address. Such a clear need to wait for the parallel find_linux_pte_or_hugepte() to finish. With zap_huge_pmd(), we can run into issues, with a hugepage pte getting zapped due to a MADV_DONTNEED while other cpu fault it in as small pages. Reported-by: NKirill A.

We have a powerpc specific global called mem_init_done which is "set on boot once kmalloc can be called". But that's not *quite* true. We set it at the bottom of mem_init(), and rely on the fact that mm_init() calls kmem_cache_init() immediately after that, and nothing is running in parallel.

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. Performance number: We use randbox_access_bench written by Anton.

If we changed base page size of the segment, either via sub_page_protect or via remap_4k_pfn, we do a demote_segment which doesn't flush the hash table entries. We do a lazy hash page table flush for all mapped pages in the demoted segment. This happens when we handle hash page fault for these pages. We use _PAGE_COMBO bit along with _PAGE_HASHPTE to indicate whether a pte is backed by 4K hash pte. If we find _PAGE_COMBO not set on the pte, that implies that we could possibly have older 64K hash pte entries in the hash page table and we need to invalidate those entries. Use _PAGE_COMBO to determine the page size with which we should invalidate the hash table entries on unmap.

pte_update() is a powerpc-ism used to change the bits of a PTE when the access permission is being restricted (a flush is potentially needed). It uses atomic operations on when needed and handles the hash synchronization on hash based processors. It is currently only used to clear PTE bits and so the current implementation doesn't provide a way to also set PTE bits. The new _PAGE_NUMA bit, when set, is actually restricting access so it must use that function too, so this change adds the ability for pte_update() to also set bits. We will use this later to set the _PAGE_NUMA bit.

There is no barrier between something like ioremap() writing to a PTE, and returning the value to a caller that may then store the pointer in a place that is visible to other CPUs. Such callers generally don't perform barriers of their own. Even if callers of ioremap() and similar things did use barriers, the most logical choise would be smp_wmb(), which is not architecturally sufficient when BookE hardware tablewalk is used. A full sync is specified by the architecture. For userspace mappings, OTOH, we generally already have an lwsync due to locking, and if we occasionally take a spurious fault due to not having a full sync with hardware tablewalk, it will not be fatal because we will retry rather than oops.

We now have pmd entries covering 16MB range and the PMD table double its original size. We use the second half of the PMD table to deposit the pgtable (PTE page). The depoisted PTE page is further used to track the HPTE information. The information include [ secondary group | 3 bit hidx | valid ]. We use one byte per each HPTE entry. With 16MB hugepage and 64K HPTE we need 256 entries and with 4K HPTE we need 4096 entries. Both will fit in a 4K PTE page. On hugepage invalidate we need to walk the PTE page and invalidate all valid HPTEs. This patch implements necessary arch specific functions for THP support and also hugepage invalidate logic.

We allocate one page for the last level of linux page table. With THP and large page size of 16MB, that would mean we are wasting large part of that page. To map 16MB area, we only need a PTE space of 2K with 64K page size. This patch reduce the space wastage by sharing the page allocated for the last level of linux page table with multiple pmd entries. We call these smaller chunks PTE page fragments and allocated page, PTE page. In order to support systems which doesn't have 64K HPTE support, we also add another 2K to PTE page fragment. The second half of the PTE fragments is used for storing slot and secondary bit information of an HPTE. With this we now have a 4K PTE fragment. We use a simple approach to share the PTE page. On allocation, we bump the PTE page refcount to 16 and share the PTE page with the next 16 pte alloc request. This should help in the node locality of the PTE page fragment, assuming that the immediate pte alloc request will mostly come from the same NUMA node. We don't try to reuse the freed PTE page fragment. Hence we could be waisting some space.
