      s390/comments: unify copyright messages and remove file names · a53c8fab
      Heiko Carstens 提交于
      Remove the file name from the comment at top of many files. In most
      cases the file name was wrong anyway, so it's rather pointless.
      
      Also unify the IBM copyright statement. We did have a lot of sightly
      different statements and wanted to change them one after another
      whenever a file gets touched. However that never happened. Instead
      people start to take the old/"wrong" statements to use as a template
      for new files.
      So unify all of them in one go.

      [S390] add support for physical memory > 4TB · 14045ebf
      Martin Schwidefsky 提交于
      The kernel address space of a 64 bit kernel currently uses a three level
      page table and the vmemmap array has a fixed address and a fixed maximum
      size. A three level page table is good enough for systems with less than
      3.8TB of memory, for bigger systems four page table levels need to be
      used. Each page table level costs a bit of performance, use 3 levels for
      normal systems and 4 levels only for the really big systems.
      To avoid bloating sparse.o too much set MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS to 46 for a
      maximum of 64TB of memory.

      [S390] refactor page table functions for better pgste support · b2fa47e6
      Martin Schwidefsky 提交于
      Rework the architecture page table functions to access the bits in the
      page table extension array (pgste). There are a number of changes:
      1) Fix missing pgste update if the attach_count for the mm is <= 1.
      2) For every operation that affects the invalid bit in the pte or the
         rcp byte in the pgste the pcl lock needs to be acquired. The function
         pgste_get_lock gets the pcl lock and returns the current pgste value
         for a pte pointer. The function pgste_set_unlock stores the pgste
         and releases the lock. Between these two calls the bits in the pgste
         can be shuffled.
      3) Define two software bits in the pte _PAGE_SWR and _PAGE_SWC to avoid
         calling SetPageDirty and SetPageReferenced from pgtable.h. If the
         host reference backup bit or the host change backup bit has been
         set the dirty/referenced state is transfered to the pte. The common
         code will pick up the state from the pte.
      4) Add ptep_modify_prot_start and ptep_modify_prot_commit for mprotect.
      5) Remove pgd_populate_kernel, pud_populate_kernel, pmd_populate_kernel
         pgd_clear_kernel, pud_clear_kernel, pmd_clear_kernel and ptep_invalidate.
      6) Rename kvm_s390_test_and_clear_page_dirty to
         ptep_test_and_clear_user_dirty and add ptep_test_and_clear_user_young.
      7) Define mm_exclusive() and mm_has_pgste() helper to improve readability.

      Fix IRQ flag handling naming · df9ee292
      David Howells 提交于
      Fix the IRQ flag handling naming.  In linux/irqflags.h under one configuration,
      it maps:
      
      	local_irq_enable() -> raw_local_irq_enable()
      	local_irq_disable() -> raw_local_irq_disable()
      	local_irq_save() -> raw_local_irq_save()
      	...
      
      and under the other configuration, it maps:
      
      	raw_local_irq_enable() -> local_irq_enable()
      	raw_local_irq_disable() -> local_irq_disable()
      	raw_local_irq_save() -> local_irq_save()
      	...
      
      This is quite confusing.  There should be one set of names expected of the
      arch, and this should be wrapped to give another set of names that are expected
      by users of this facility.
      
      Change this to have the arch provide:
      
      	flags = arch_local_save_flags()
      	flags = arch_local_irq_save()
      	arch_local_irq_restore(flags)
      	arch_local_irq_disable()
      	arch_local_irq_enable()
      	arch_irqs_disabled_flags(flags)
      	arch_irqs_disabled()
      	arch_safe_halt()
      
      Then linux/irqflags.h wraps these to provide:
      
      	raw_local_save_flags(flags)
      	raw_local_irq_save(flags)
      	raw_local_irq_restore(flags)
      	raw_local_irq_disable()
      	raw_local_irq_enable()
      	raw_irqs_disabled_flags(flags)
      	raw_irqs_disabled()
      	raw_safe_halt()
      
      with type checking on the flags 'arguments', and then wraps those to provide:
      
      	local_save_flags(flags)
      	local_irq_save(flags)
      	local_irq_restore(flags)
      	local_irq_disable()
      	local_irq_enable()
      	irqs_disabled_flags(flags)
      	irqs_disabled()
      	safe_halt()
      
      with tracing included if enabled.
      
      The arch functions can now all be inline functions rather than some of them
      having to be macros.

      [S390] fix tlb flushing vs. concurrent /proc accesses · 050eef36
      Martin Schwidefsky 提交于
      The tlb flushing code uses the mm_users field of the mm_struct to
      decide if each page table entry needs to be flushed individually with
      IPTE or if a global flush for the mm_struct is sufficient after all page
      table updates have been done. The comment for mm_users says "How many
      users with user space?" but the /proc code increases mm_users after it
      found the process structure by pid without creating a new user process.
      Which makes mm_users useless for the decision between the two tlb
      flusing methods. The current code can be confused to not flush tlb
      entries by a concurrent access to /proc files if e.g. a fork is in
      progres. The solution for this problem is to make the tlb flushing
      logic independent from the mm_users field.

      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.

      mm: show node to memory section relationship with symlinks in sysfs · c04fc586
      Gary Hade 提交于
      Show node to memory section relationship with symlinks in sysfs
      
      Add /sys/devices/system/node/nodeX/memoryY symlinks for all
      the memory sections located on nodeX.  For example:
      /sys/devices/system/node/node1/memory135 -> ../../memory/memory135
      indicates that memory section 135 resides on node1.
      
      Also revises documentation to cover this change as well as updating
      Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-devices-memory to include descriptions
      of memory hotremove files 'phys_device', 'phys_index', and 'state'
      that were previously not described there.
      
      In addition to it always being a good policy to provide users with
      the maximum possible amount of physical location information for
      resources that can be hot-added and/or hot-removed, the following
      are some (but likely not all) of the user benefits provided by
      this change.
      Immediate:
        - Provides information needed to determine the specific node
          on which a defective DIMM is located.  This will reduce system
          downtime when the node or defective DIMM is swapped out.
        - Prevents unintended onlining of a memory section that was
          previously offlined due to a defective DIMM.  This could happen
          during node hot-add when the user or node hot-add assist script
          onlines _all_ offlined sections due to user or script inability
          to identify the specific memory sections located on the hot-added
          node.  The consequences of reintroducing the defective memory
          could be ugly.
        - Provides information needed to vary the amount and distribution
          of memory on specific nodes for testing or debugging purposes.
      Future:
        - Will provide information needed to identify the memory
          sections that need to be offlined prior to physical removal
          of a specific node.
      
      Symlink creation during boot was tested on 2-node x86_64, 2-node
      ppc64, and 2-node ia64 systems.  Symlink creation during physical
      memory hot-add tested on a 2-node x86_64 system.

      [S390] noexec protection · c1821c2e
      Gerald Schaefer 提交于
      This provides a noexec protection on s390 hardware. Our hardware does
      not have any bits left in the pte for a hw noexec bit, so this is a
      different approach using shadow page tables and a special addressing
      mode that allows separate address spaces for code and data.
      
      As a special feature of our "secondary-space" addressing mode, separate
      page tables can be specified for the translation of data addresses
      (storage operands) and instruction addresses. The shadow page table is
      used for the instruction addresses and the standard page table for the
      data addresses.
      The shadow page table is linked to the standard page table by a pointer
      in page->lru.next of the struct page corresponding to the page that
      contains the standard page table (since page->private is not really
      private with the pte_lock and the page table pages are not in the LRU
      list).
      Depending on the software bits of a pte, it is either inserted into
      both page tables or just into the standard (data) page table. Pages of
      a vma that does not have the VM_EXEC bit set get mapped only in the
      data address space. Any try to execute code on such a page will cause a
      page translation exception. The standard reaction to this is a SIGSEGV
      with two exceptions: the two system call opcodes 0x0a77 (sys_sigreturn)
      and 0x0aad (sys_rt_sigreturn) are allowed. They are stored by the
      kernel to the signal stack frame. Unfortunately, the signal return
      mechanism cannot be modified to use an SA_RESTORER because the
      exception unwinding code depends on the system call opcode stored
      behind the signal stack frame.
      
      This feature requires that user space is executed in secondary-space
      mode and the kernel in home-space mode, which means that the addressing
      modes need to be switched and that the noexec protection only works
      for user space.
      After switching the addressing modes, we cannot use the mvcp/mvcs
      instructions anymore to copy between kernel and user space. A new
      mvcos instruction has been added to the z9 EC/BC hardware which allows
      to copy between arbitrary address spaces, but on older hardware the
      page tables need to be walked manually.
