      powerpc: port 64 bits pgtable_cache to 32 bits · 9b081e10
      Christophe Leroy 提交于
      Today powerpc64 uses a set of pgtable_caches while powerpc32 uses
      standard pages when using 4k pages and a single pgtable_cache
      if using other size pages.
      
      In preparation of implementing huge pages on the 8xx, this patch
      replaces the specific powerpc32 handling by the 64 bits approach.
      
      This is done by:
      * moving 64 bits pgtable_cache_add() and pgtable_cache_init()
      in a new file called init-common.c
      * modifying pgtable_cache_init() to also handle the case
      without PMD
      * removing the 32 bits version of pgtable_cache_add() and
      pgtable_cache_init()
      * copying related header contents from 64 bits into both the
      book3s/32 and nohash/32 header files
      
      On the 8xx, the following cache sizes will be used:
      * 4k pages mode:
      - PGT_CACHE(10) for PGD
      - PGT_CACHE(3) for 512k hugepage tables
      * 16k pages mode:
      - PGT_CACHE(6) for PGD
      - PGT_CACHE(7) for 512k hugepage tables
      - PGT_CACHE(3) for 8M hugepage tables

      tree wide: get rid of __GFP_REPEAT for order-0 allocations part I · 32d6bd90
      Michal Hocko 提交于
      This is the third version of the patchset previously sent [1].  I have
      basically only rebased it on top of 4.7-rc1 tree and dropped "dm: get
      rid of superfluous gfp flags" which went through dm tree.  I am sending
      it now because it is tree wide and chances for conflicts are reduced
      considerably when we want to target rc2.  I plan to send the next step
      and rename the flag and move to a better semantic later during this
      release cycle so we will have a new semantic ready for 4.8 merge window
      hopefully.
      
      Motivation:
      
      While working on something unrelated I've checked the current usage of
      __GFP_REPEAT in the tree.  It seems that a majority of the usage is and
      always has been bogus because __GFP_REPEAT has always been about costly
      high order allocations while we are using it for order-0 or very small
      orders very often.  It seems that a big pile of them is just a
      copy&paste when a code has been adopted from one arch to another.
      
      I think it makes some sense to get rid of them because they are just
      making the semantic more unclear.  Please note that GFP_REPEAT is
      documented as
      
      * __GFP_REPEAT: Try hard to allocate the memory, but the allocation attempt
      
      * _might_ fail.  This depends upon the particular VM implementation.
        while !costly requests have basically nofail semantic.  So one could
        reasonably expect that order-0 request with __GFP_REPEAT will not loop
        for ever.  This is not implemented right now though.
      
      I would like to move on with __GFP_REPEAT and define a better semantic
      for it.
      
        $ git grep __GFP_REPEAT origin/master | wc -l
        111
        $ git grep __GFP_REPEAT | wc -l
        36
      
      So we are down to the third after this patch series.  The remaining
      places really seem to be relying on __GFP_REPEAT due to large allocation
      requests.  This still needs some double checking which I will do later
      after all the simple ones are sorted out.
      
      I am touching a lot of arch specific code here and I hope I got it right
      but as a matter of fact I even didn't compile test for some archs as I
      do not have cross compiler for them.  Patches should be quite trivial to
      review for stupid compile mistakes though.  The tricky parts are usually
      hidden by macro definitions and thats where I would appreciate help from
      arch maintainers.
      
      [1] http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1461849846-27209-1-git-send-email-mhocko@kernel.org
      
      This patch (of 19):
      
      __GFP_REPEAT has a rather weak semantic but since it has been introduced
      around 2.6.12 it has been ignored for low order allocations.  Yet we
      have the full kernel tree with its usage for apparently order-0
      allocations.  This is really confusing because __GFP_REPEAT is
      explicitly documented to allow allocation failures which is a weaker
      semantic than the current order-0 has (basically nofail).
      
      Let's simply drop __GFP_REPEAT from those places.  This would allow to
      identify place which really need allocator to retry harder and formulate
      a more specific semantic for what the flag is supposed to do actually.

      mm/debug-pagealloc: make debug-pagealloc boottime configurable · 031bc574

      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

      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.
