      mm/debug-pagealloc: make debug-pagealloc boottime configurable · 031bc574
      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: add barrier after writing kernel PTE · 47ce8af4
      Scott Wood 提交于
      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.

      include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking... · 5a0e3ad6
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
      
      percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
      included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
      in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
      universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.
      
      percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
      this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
      headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
      needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
      used as the basis of conversion.
      
        http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
      
      The script does the followings.
      
      * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
        only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
        gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.
      
      * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
        blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
        to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
        core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
        alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
        doesn't seem to be any matching order.
      
      * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
        because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
        an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
        file.
      
      The conversion was done in the following steps.
      
      1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
         over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
         and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
         files.
      
      2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
         some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
         embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
         inclusions to around 150 files.
      
      3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
         from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.
      
      4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
         e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
         APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.
      
      5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
         editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
         files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
         inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
         wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
         slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
         necessary.
      
      6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
      
      7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
         were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
         distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
         more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
         build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).
      
         * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
         * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
         * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
         * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
         * s390 SMP allmodconfig
         * alpha SMP allmodconfig
         * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig
      
      8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
         a separate patch and serve as bisection point.
      
      Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
      6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
      If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
      headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
      the specific arch.

      powerpc/mm: Cleanup handling of execute permission · ea3cc330
      Benjamin Herrenschmidt 提交于
      This is an attempt at cleaning up a bit the way we handle execute
      permission on powerpc. _PAGE_HWEXEC is gone, _PAGE_EXEC is now only
      defined by CPUs that can do something with it, and the myriad of
      #ifdef's in the I$/D$ coherency code is reduced to 2 cases that
      hopefully should cover everything.
      
      The logic on BookE is a little bit different than what it was though
      not by much. Since now, _PAGE_EXEC will be set by the generic code
      for executable pages, we need to filter out if they are unclean and
      recover it. However, I don't expect the code to be more bloated than
      it already was in that area due to that change.
      
      I could boast that this brings proper enforcing of per-page execute
      permissions to all BookE and 40x but in fact, we've had that now for
      some time as a side effect of my previous rework in that area (and
      I didn't even know it :-) We would only enable execute permission if
      the page was cache clean and we would only cache clean it if we took
      and exec fault. Since we now enforce that the later only work if
      VM_EXEC is part of the VMA flags, we de-fact already enforce per-page
      execute permissions... Unless I missed something

      powerpc/mm: Tweak PTE bit combination definitions · 8d1cf34e
      Benjamin Herrenschmidt 提交于
      This patch tweaks the way some PTE bit combinations are defined, in such a
      way that the 32 and 64-bit variant become almost identical and that will
      make it easier to bring in a new common pte-* file for the new variant
      of the Book3-E support.
      
      The combination of bits defining access to kernel pages are now clearly
      separated from the combination used by userspace and the core VM. The
      resulting generated code should remain identical unless I made a mistake.
      
      Note: While at it, I removed a non-sensical statement related to CONFIG_KGDB
      in ppc_mmu_32.c which could cause kernel mappings to be user accessible when
      that option is enabled. Probably something that bitrot.

      POWERPC: Allow 32-bit hashed pgtable code to support 36-bit physical · 4ee7084e
      Becky Bruce 提交于
      This rearranges a bit of code, and adds support for
      36-bit physical addressing for configs that use a
      hashed page table.  The 36b physical support is not
      enabled by default on any config - it must be
      explicitly enabled via the config system.
      
      This patch *only* expands the page table code to accomodate
      large physical addresses on 32-bit systems and enables the
      PHYS_64BIT config option for 86xx.  It does *not*
      allow you to boot a board with more than about 3.5GB of
      RAM - for that, SWIOTLB support is also required (and
      coming soon).

      powerpc ioremap_prot · a1f242ff
      Benjamin Herrenschmidt 提交于
      This adds ioremap_prot and pte_pgprot() so that one can extract protection
      bits from a PTE and use them to ioremap_prot() (in order to support ptrace
      of VM_IO | VM_PFNMAP as per Rik's patch).
      
      This moves a couple of flag checks around in the ioremap implementations
      of arch/powerpc.  There's a side effect of allowing non-cacheable and
      non-guarded mappings on ppc32 which before would always have _PAGE_GUARDED
      set whenever _PAGE_NO_CACHE is.
      
      (standard ioremap will still set _PAGE_GUARDED, but ioremap_prot will be
      capable of setting such a non guarded mapping).

      [POWERPC] Port fixmap from x86 and use for kmap_atomic · 2c419bde
      Kumar Gala 提交于
      The fixmap code from x86 allows us to have compile time virtual addresses
      that we change the physical addresses of at run time.
      
      This is useful for applications like kmap_atomic, PCI config that is done
      via direct memory map, kexec/kdump.
      
      We got ride of CONFIG_HIGHMEM_START as we can now determine a more optimal
      location for PKMAP_BASE based on where the fixmap addresses start and
      working back from there.
      
      Additionally, the kmap code in asm-powerpc/highmem.h always had debug
      enabled.  Moved to using CONFIG_DEBUG_HIGHMEM to determine if we should
      have the extra debug checking.

      [POWERPC] Remove and replace uses of PPC_MEMSTART with memstart_addr · 99c62dd7
      Kumar Gala 提交于
      A number of users of PPC_MEMSTART (40x, ppc_mmu_32) can just always
      use 0 as we don't support booting these kernels at non-zero physical
      addresses since their exception vectors must be at 0 (or 0xfffx_xxxx).
      
      For the sub-arches that support relocatable interrupt vectors
      (book-e), it's reasonable to have memory start at a non-zero physical
      address.  For those cases use the variable memstart_addr instead of
      the #define PPC_MEMSTART since the only uses of PPC_MEMSTART are for
      initialization and in the future we can set memstart_addr at runtime
      to have a relocatable kernel.
