      [ARM] make page_to_dma() highmem aware · 58edb515
      由 Nicolas Pitre 提交于 
      If a machine class has a custom __virt_to_bus() implementation then it
must provide a __arch_page_to_dma() implementation as well which is
_not_ based on page_address() to support highmem.

This patch fixes existing __arch_page_to_dma() and provide a default
implementation otherwise.  The default implementation for highmem is
based on __pfn_to_bus() which is defined only when no custom
__virt_to_bus() is provided by the machine class.

That leaves only ebsa110 and footbridge which cannot support highmem
until they provide their own __arch_page_to_dma() implementation.
But highmem support on those legacy platforms with limited memory is
certainly not a priority.

      [ARM] introduce dma_cache_maint_page() · 43377453
      由 Nicolas Pitre 提交于 
      This is a helper to be used by the DMA mapping API to handle cache
maintenance for memory identified by a page structure instead of a
virtual address.  Those pages may or may not be highmem pages, and
when they're highmem pages, they may or may not be virtually mapped.
When they're not mapped then there is no L1 cache to worry about. But
even in that case the L2 cache must be processed since unmapped highmem
pages can still be L2 cached.

      highmem: atomic highmem kmap page pinning · 3297e760
      由 Nicolas Pitre 提交于 
      Most ARM machines have a non IO coherent cache, meaning that the
dma_map_*() set of functions must clean and/or invalidate the affected
memory manually before DMA occurs.  And because the majority of those
machines have a VIVT cache, the cache maintenance operations must be
performed using virtual
addresses.

When a highmem page is kunmap'd, its mapping (and cache) remains in place
in case it is kmap'd again. However if dma_map_page() is then called with
such a page, some cache maintenance on the remaining mapping must be
performed. In that case, page_address(page) is non null and we can use
that to synchronize the cache.

It is unlikely but still possible for kmap() to race and recycle the
virtual address obtained above, and use it for another page before some
on-going cache invalidation loop in dma_map_page() is done. In that case,
the new mapping could end up with dirty cache lines for another page,
and the unsuspecting cache invalidation loop in dma_map_page() might
simply discard those dirty cache lines resulting in data loss.

For example, let's consider this sequence of events:

	- dma_map_page(..., DMA_FROM_DEVICE) is called on a highmem page.

	-->	- vaddr = page_address(page) is non null. In this case
		it is likely that the page has valid cache lines
		associated with vaddr. Remember that the cache is VIVT.

		-->	for (i = vaddr; i < vaddr + PAGE_SIZE; i += 32)
				invalidate_cache_line(i);

	*** preemption occurs in the middle of the loop above ***

	- kmap_high() is called for a different page.

	-->	- last_pkmap_nr wraps to zero and flush_all_zero_pkmaps()
		  is called.  The pkmap_count value for the page passed
		  to dma_map_page() above happens to be 1, so the page
		  is unmapped.  But prior to that, flush_cache_kmaps()
		  cleared the cache for it.  So far so good.

		- A fresh pkmap entry is assigned for this kmap request.
		  The Murphy law says this pkmap entry will eventually
		  happen to use the same vaddr as the one which used to
		  belong to the other page being processed by
		  dma_map_page() in the preempted thread above.

	- The kmap_high() caller start dirtying the cache using the
	  just assigned virtual mapping for its page.

	*** the first thread is rescheduled ***

			- The for(...) loop is resumed, but now cached
			  data belonging to a different physical page is
			  being discarded !

And this is not only a preemption issue as ARM can be SMP as well,
making the above scenario just as likely. Hence the need for some kind
of pkmap page pinning which can be used in any context, primarily for
the benefit of dma_map_page() on ARM.

This provides the necessary interface to cope with the above issue if
ARCH_NEEDS_KMAP_HIGH_GET is defined, otherwise the resulting code is
unchanged.

      [ARM] kmap support · d73cd428
      由 Nicolas Pitre 提交于 
      The kmap virtual area borrows a 2MB range at the top of the 16MB area
below PAGE_OFFSET currently reserved for kernel modules and/or the
XIP kernel.  This 2MB corresponds to the range covered by 2 consecutive
second-level page tables, or a single pmd entry as seen by the Linux
page table abstraction.  Because XIP kernels are unlikely to be seen
on systems needing highmem support, there shouldn't be any shortage of
VM space for modules (14 MB for modules is still way more than twice the
typical usage).

Because the virtual mapping of highmem pages can go away at any moment
after kunmap() is called on them, we need to bypass the delayed cache
flushing provided by flush_dcache_page() in that case.

The atomic kmap versions are based on fixmaps, and
__cpuc_flush_dcache_page() is used directly in that case.

      [ARM] fixmap support · 5f0fbf9e
      由 Nicolas Pitre 提交于 
      This is the minimum fixmap interface expected to be implemented by
architectures supporting highmem.

We have a second level page table already allocated and covering
0xfff00000-0xffffffff because the exception vector page is located
at 0xffff0000, and various cache tricks already use some entries above
0xffff0000.  Therefore the PTEs covering 0xfff00000-0xfffeffff are free
to be used.

However the XScale cache flushing code already uses virtual addresses
between 0xfffe0000 and 0xfffeffff.

So this reserves the 0xfff00000-0xfffdffff range for fixmap stuff.

The Documentation/arm/memory.txt information is updated accordingly,
including the information about the actual top of DMA memory mapping
region which didn't match the code.
