Nick Piggin points out that page accounting on MIPS multiple ZERO_PAGEs is not maintained by its move_pte, and could lead to freeing a ZERO_PAGE. Instead of complicating that move_pte, just forget the minor optimization when mremapping, and change the one thing which needed it for correctness - filemap_xip use ZERO_PAGE(0) throughout instead of according to address.

To allow various options to work per-mount instead of per-sb we need a struct vfsmount when updating ctime and mtime. This preparation patch replaces the inode_update_time routine with a file_update_atime routine so we can easily get at the vfsmount. (and the file makes more sense in this context anyway). Also get rid of the unused second argument - we always want to update the ctime when calling this routine.

This patch converts the inode semaphore to a mutex. I have tested it on XFS and compiled as much as one can consider on an ia64. Anyway your luck with it might be different.

rmap's page_check_address descend without page_table_lock. First just pte_offset_map in case there's no pte present worth locking for, then take page_table_lock for the full check, and pass ptl back to caller in the same style as pte_offset_map_lock. __xip_unmap, page_referenced_one and try_to_unmap_one use pte_unmap_unlock. try_to_unmap_cluster also. page_check_address reformatted to avoid progressive indentation. No use is made of its one error code, return NULL when it fails.

Small fix to the PageReserved patch: the mips ZERO_PAGE(address) depends on address, so __xip_unmap is wrong to initialize page with that before address is initialized; and in fact must re-evaluate it each iteration.

Remove PageReserved() calls from core code by tightening VM_RESERVED handling in mm/ to cover PageReserved functionality. PageReserved special casing is removed from get_page and put_page. All setting and clearing of PageReserved is retained, and it is now flagged in the page_alloc checks to help ensure we don't introduce any refcount based freeing of Reserved pages. MAP_PRIVATE, PROT_WRITE of VM_RESERVED regions is tentatively being deprecated. We never completely handled it correctly anyway, and is be reintroduced in future if required (Hugh has a proof of concept). Once PageReserved() calls are removed from kernel/power/swsusp.c, and all arch/ and driver code, the Set and Clear calls, and the PG_reserved bit can be trivially removed. Last real user of PageReserved is swsusp, which uses PageReserved to determine whether a struct page points to valid memory or not. This still needs to be addressed (a generic page_is_ram() should work). A last caveat: the ZERO_PAGE is now refcounted and managed with rmap (and thus mapcounted and count towards shared rss). These writes to the struct page could cause excessive cacheline bouncing on big systems. There are a number of ways this could be addressed if it is an issue.

This patch includes feedback from Andrew and Christoph. Thanks for taking time to review. Use of empty_zero_page was eliminated to fix compilation for architectures that don't have it. This patch removes setting pages up-to-date in ext2_get_xip_page and all bug checks to verify that the page is indeed up to date. Setting the page state on mapping to userland is bogus. None of the code patchs involved with these pages in mm cares about the page state. still on my ToDo list: identify a place outside second extended where __inode_direct_access should reside Signed-off-by: NCarsten Otte <cotte@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: NAndrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

mm/filemap_xip.c: In function `__xip_unmap': mm/filemap_xip.c:194: request for member `pte' in something not a structure or union Apparently pte_pfn() takes a pte_t, not a pointer to a pte_t. From looking at asm/page.h, it seems to be the same on ia32 or ppc (iff STRICT_MM_TYPECHECKS is enabled, which is disabled by default on ppc).

This patch reworks filemap_xip.c with the goal to reduce code duplication from mm/filemap.c. It applies agains 2.6.12-rc6-mm1. Instead of implementing the aio functions, this one implements the synchronous read/write functions only. For readv and writev, the generic fallback is used. For aio, we rely on the application doing the fallback. Since our "synchronous" function does memcpy immediately anyway, there is no performance difference between using the fallbacks or implementing each operation.

- generic_file* file operations do no longer have a xip/non-xip split - filemap_xip.c implements a new set of fops that require get_xip_page aop to work proper. all new fops are exported GPL-only (don't like to see whatever code use those except GPL modules) - __xip_unmap now uses page_check_address, which is no longer static in rmap.c, and defined in linux/rmap.h - mm/filemap.h is now much more clean, plainly having just Linus' inline funcs moved here from filemap.c - fix includes in filemap_xip to make it build cleanly on i386 Signed-off-by: NCarsten Otte <cotte@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: NAndrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
