Currently kernel images are limited to 8MB in size, and this causes problems especially when enabling features that take up a lot of kernel image space such as lockdep. The code now will align the kernel image size up to 4MB and map that many locked TLB entries. So, the only practical limitation is the number of available locked TLB entries which is 16 on Cheetah and 64 on pre-Cheetah sparc64 cpus. Niagara cpus don't actually have hw locked TLB entry support. Rather, the hypervisor transparently provides support for "locked" TLB entries since it runs with physical addressing and does the initial TLB miss processing. Fully utilizing this change requires some help from SILO, a patch for which will be submitted to the maintainer. Essentially, SILO will only currently map up to 8MB for the kernel image and that needs to be increased. Note that neither this patch nor the SILO bits will help with network booting. The openfirmware code will only map up to a certain amount of kernel image during a network boot and there isn't much we can to about that other than to implemented a layered network booting facility. Solaris has this, and calls it "wanboot" and we may implement something similar at some point. Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Some parts of the kernel now do things like do *_user() accesses while set_fs(KERNEL_DS) that fault on purpose. See, for example, the code added by changeset a0c1e907 ("futex: runtime enable pi and robust functionality"). That trips up the ASI sanity checking we make in do_kernel_fault(). Just remove it for now. Maybe we can add it back later with an added conditional which looks at the current get_fs() value. Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

This patchset adds a flags variable to reserve_bootmem() and uses the BOOTMEM_EXCLUSIVE flag in crashkernel reservation code to detect collisions between crashkernel area and already used memory. This patch: Change the reserve_bootmem() function to accept a new flag BOOTMEM_EXCLUSIVE. If that flag is set, the function returns with -EBUSY if the memory already has been reserved in the past. This is to avoid conflicts. Because that code runs before SMP initialisation, there's no race condition inside reserve_bootmem_core().

This was caught and identified by Greg Onufer. Since we setup the 256M/4M bitmap table after taking over the trap table, it's possible for some 4M mapping to get loaded in the TLB beforhand which later will be 256M mappings. This can cause illegal TLB multiple-match conditions. Fix this by setting up the bitmap before we take over the trap table. Next, __flush_tlb_all() was not doing anything on hypervisor platforms. Fix by adding sun4v_mmu_demap_all() and calling it. Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

When CONFIG_BUG is turned off, the standard trick of: switch (x) { case X: ... case Y: ... default: BUG(); }; to mark impossible cases does not work because BUG() evalutes to nothing and thus GCC just sees a fallthrough code path.

This is against 2.6.23-rc6-mm1. - fix compile failure on ia64/ CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG && !CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTREMOVE case. - For !CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTREMOVE, add generic no-op remove_memory(), which returns -EINVAL. - removed remove_pages() only used in powerpc. - removed no-op remove_memory() in i386, sh, sparc64, x86_64. - only powerpc returns -ENOSYS at memory hot remove(no-op). changes it to return -EINVAL.

We have had complaints where a threaded application is left in a bad state after one of it's threads is killed when we hit a VM: out_of_memory condition. Killing just one of the process threads can leave the application in a bad state, whereas killing the entire process group would allow for the application to restart, or be otherwise handled, and makes it very obvious that something has gone wrong. This change allows the entire process group to be taken down, rather than just the one thread.

For hugepage mappings, the file offset, like the address and size, needs to be aligned to the size of a hugepage. In commit 68589bc3, the check for this was moved into prepare_hugepage_range() along with the address and size checks. But since BenH's rework of the get_unmapped_area() paths leading up to commit 4b1d8929, prepare_hugepage_range() is only called for MAP_FIXED mappings, not for other mappings. This means we're no longer ever checking for an aligned offset - I've confirmed that mmap() will (apparently) succeed with a misaligned offset on both powerpc and i386 at least. This patch restores the check, removing it from prepare_hugepage_range() and putting it back into hugetlbfs_file_mmap(). I'm putting it there, rather than in the get_unmapped_area() path so it only needs to go in one place, than separately in the half-dozen or so arch-specific implementations of hugetlb_get_unmapped_area().

Cheetah systems can have cpuids as large as 1023, although physical systems don't have that many cpus. Only three limitations existed in the kernel preventing arbitrary NR_CPUS values: 1) dcache dirty cpu state stored in page->flags on D-cache aliasing platforms. With some build time calculations and some build-time BUG checks on page->flags layout, this one was easily solved. 2) The cheetah XCALL delivery code could only handle a cpumask with up to 32 cpus set. Some simple looping logic clears that up too. 3) thread_info->cpu was a u8, easily changed to a u16. There are a few spots in the kernel that still put NR_CPUS sized arrays on the kernel stack, but that's not a sparc64 specific problem. Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

This patch moves the die notifier handling to common code. Previous various architectures had exactly the same code for it. Note that the new code is compiled unconditionally, this should be understood as an appel to the other architecture maintainer to implement support for it aswell (aka sprinkling a notify_die or two in the proper place) arm had a notifiy_die that did something totally different, I renamed it to arm_notify_die as part of the patch and made it static to the file it's declared and used at. avr32 used to pass slightly less information through this interface and I brought it into line with the other architectures.

Fulfills the role of SLAB_HWCACHE_ALIGN for SLOB. The only remaining use is in sparc64 and ppc64 and their use there reflects some earlier role that the slab flag once may have had.
