      powerpc: Remove more traces of bootmem · e39f223f
      Michael Ellerman 提交于
      Although we are now selecting NO_BOOTMEM, we still have some traces of
      bootmem lying around. That is because even with NO_BOOTMEM there is
      still a shim that converts bootmem calls into memblock calls, but
      ultimately we want to remove all traces of bootmem.
      
      Most of the patch is conversions from alloc_bootmem() to
      memblock_virt_alloc(). In general a call such as:
      
        p = (struct foo *)alloc_bootmem(x);
      
      Becomes:
      
        p = memblock_virt_alloc(x, 0);
      
      We don't need the cast because memblock_virt_alloc() returns a void *.
      The alignment value of zero tells memblock to use the default alignment,
      which is SMP_CACHE_BYTES, the same value alloc_bootmem() uses.
      
      We remove a number of NULL checks on the result of
      memblock_virt_alloc(). That is because memblock_virt_alloc() will panic
      if it can't allocate, in exactly the same way as alloc_bootmem(), so the
      NULL checks are and always have been redundant.
      
      The memory returned by memblock_virt_alloc() is already zeroed, so we
      remove several memsets of the result of memblock_virt_alloc().
      
      Finally we convert a few uses of __alloc_bootmem(x, y, MAX_DMA_ADDRESS)
      to just plain memblock_virt_alloc(). We don't use memblock_alloc_base()
      because MAX_DMA_ADDRESS is ~0ul on powerpc, so limiting the allocation
      to that is pointless, 16XB ought to be enough for anyone.

      powerpc: Replace __get_cpu_var uses · 69111bac
      Christoph Lameter 提交于
      This still has not been merged and now powerpc is the only arch that does
      not have this change. Sorry about missing linuxppc-dev before.
      
      V2->V2
        - Fix up to work against 3.18-rc1
      
      __get_cpu_var() is used for multiple purposes in the kernel source. One of
      them is address calculation via the form &__get_cpu_var(x).  This calculates
      the address for the instance of the percpu variable of the current processor
      based on an offset.
      
      Other use cases are for storing and retrieving data from the current
      processors percpu area.  __get_cpu_var() can be used as an lvalue when
      writing data or on the right side of an assignment.
      
      __get_cpu_var() is defined as :
      
      __get_cpu_var() always only does an address determination. However, store
      and retrieve operations could use a segment prefix (or global register on
      other platforms) to avoid the address calculation.
      
      this_cpu_write() and this_cpu_read() can directly take an offset into a
      percpu area and use optimized assembly code to read and write per cpu
      variables.
      
      This patch converts __get_cpu_var into either an explicit address
      calculation using this_cpu_ptr() or into a use of this_cpu operations that
      use the offset.  Thereby address calculations are avoided and less registers
      are used when code is generated.
      
      At the end of the patch set all uses of __get_cpu_var have been removed so
      the macro is removed too.
      
      The patch set includes passes over all arches as well. Once these operations
      are used throughout then specialized macros can be defined in non -x86
      arches as well in order to optimize per cpu access by f.e.  using a global
      register that may be set to the per cpu base.

      mm: migrate: check movability of hugepage in unmap_and_move_huge_page() · 83467efb
      Naoya Horiguchi 提交于
      Currently hugepage migration works well only for pmd-based hugepages
      (mainly due to lack of testing,) so we had better not enable migration of
      other levels of hugepages until we are ready for it.
      
      Some users of hugepage migration (mbind, move_pages, and migrate_pages) do
      page table walk and check pud/pmd_huge() there, so they are safe.  But the
      other users (softoffline and memory hotremove) don't do this, so without
      this patch they can try to migrate unexpected types of hugepages.
      
      To prevent this, we introduce hugepage_migration_support() as an
      architecture dependent check of whether hugepage are implemented on a pmd
      basis or not.  And on some architecture multiple sizes of hugepages are
      available, so hugepage_migration_support() also checks hugepage size.

      KVM: PPC: Implement MMU notifiers for Book3S HV guests · 342d3db7
      Paul Mackerras 提交于
      This adds the infrastructure to enable us to page out pages underneath
      a Book3S HV guest, on processors that support virtualized partition
      memory, that is, POWER7.  Instead of pinning all the guest's pages,
      we now look in the host userspace Linux page tables to find the
      mapping for a given guest page.  Then, if the userspace Linux PTE
      gets invalidated, kvm_unmap_hva() gets called for that address, and
      we replace all the guest HPTEs that refer to that page with absent
      HPTEs, i.e. ones with the valid bit clear and the HPTE_V_ABSENT bit
      set, which will cause an HDSI when the guest tries to access them.
      Finally, the page fault handler is extended to reinstantiate the
      guest HPTE when the guest tries to access a page which has been paged
      out.
      
      Since we can't intercept the guest DSI and ISI interrupts on PPC970,
      we still have to pin all the guest pages on PPC970.  We have a new flag,
      kvm->arch.using_mmu_notifiers, that indicates whether we can page
      guest pages out.  If it is not set, the MMU notifier callbacks do
      nothing and everything operates as before.

      Andrea Arcangeli 提交于
      Up to this point the code assumed old refcounting for hugepages (pre-thp).
      This updates the code directly to the thp mapcount tail page refcounting.

      powerpc: get_hugepte() don't put_page() the wrong page · 405e44f2
      Andrea Arcangeli 提交于
      "page" may have changed to point to the next hugepage after the loop
      completed, The references have been taken on the head page, so the
      put_page must happen there too.
      
      This is a longstanding issue pre-thp inclusion.
      
      It's totally unclear how these page_cache_add_speculative and
      pte_val(pte) != pte_val(*ptep) checks are necessary across all the
      powerpc gup_fast code, when x86 doesn't need any of that: there's no way
      the page can be freed with irq disabled so we're guaranteed the
      atomic_inc will happen on a page with page_count > 0 (so not needing the
      speculative check).
      
      The pte check is also meaningless on x86: no need to rollback on x86 if
      the pte changed, because the pte can still change a CPU tick after the
      check succeeded and it won't be rolled back in that case.  The important
      thing is we got a reference on a valid page that was mapped there a CPU
      tick ago.  So not knowing the soft tlb refill code of ppc64 in great
      detail I'm not removing the "speculative" page_count increase and the
      pte checks across all the code, but unless there's a strong reason for
      it they should be later cleaned up too.
      
      If a pte can change from huge to non-huge (like it could happen with
      THP) passing a pte_t *ptep to gup_hugepte() would also require to repeat
      the is_hugepd in gup_hugepte(), but that shouldn't happen with hugetlbfs
      only so I'm not altering that.

      powerpc: Fix hugetlb with CONFIG_PPC_MM_SLICES=y · 25c29f9e
      Paul Mackerras 提交于
      Commit 41151e77 ("powerpc: Hugetlb for BookE") added some
      #ifdef CONFIG_MM_SLICES conditionals to hugetlb_get_unmapped_area()
      and vma_mmu_pagesize().  Unfortunately this is not the correct config
      symbol; it should be CONFIG_PPC_MM_SLICES.  The result is that
      attempting to use hugetlbfs on 64-bit Power server processors results
      in an infinite stack recursion between get_unmapped_area() and
      hugetlb_get_unmapped_area().
      
      This fixes it by changing the #ifdef to use CONFIG_PPC_MM_SLICES
      in those functions and also in book3e_hugetlb_preload().

      powerpc: Hugetlb for BookE · 41151e77
      Becky Bruce 提交于
      Enable hugepages on Freescale BookE processors.  This allows the kernel to
      use huge TLB entries to map pages, which can greatly reduce the number of
      TLB misses and the amount of TLB thrashing experienced by applications with
      large memory footprints.  Care should be taken when using this on FSL
      processors, as the number of large TLB entries supported by the core is low
      (16-64) on current processors.
      
      The supported set of hugepage sizes include 4m, 16m, 64m, 256m, and 1g.
      Page sizes larger than the max zone size are called "gigantic" pages and
      must be allocated on the command line (and cannot be deallocated).
      
      This is currently only fully implemented for Freescale 32-bit BookE
      processors, but there is some infrastructure in the code for
      64-bit BooKE.

      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.
