__get_phys is only called from init.c as is prom_virt_to_phys(), __get_iospace() is not called at all, and sun4u_get_pte() is largely misnamed. Privatize the implementation and helper functions of sun4u_get_phys() to mm/init.c, and rename to kvaddr_to_paddr(). The only used of this thing is flush_icache_range(), and thus things can be considerably further simplified. For example, we should only see module or PAGE_OFFSET kernel addresses here, so we don't need the OBP firmware range handling at all. Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

We have to make sure to use base-pagesize TLB entries even during the early transition period where we need TLB miss handling but don't have the kernel page tables setup yet for the linear region. Also, it is necessary therefore to not use the 4MB TSB for these translations, and instead use the normal kernel TSB. This allows us to also get rid of the 4MB tsb for debug builds which shrinks the kernel a little bit. Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

nr_free_pages is now a simple access to a global variable. Make it a macro instead of a function. The nr_free_pages now requires vmstat.h to be included. There is one occurrence in power management where we need to add the include. Directly refrer to global_page_state() there to clarify why the #include was added.

There is an ancient and totally incorrect sanity check being done on the ramdisk location. The check assumes that the kernel is always loaded to physical address zero, which is wrong. It was trying to validate the ramdisk value by saying that if it fell within the kernel image address range it must be wrong. Anyways, kill this because it actually creates problems. The 'ramdisk_image' should always be adjusted down by KERNBASE. SILO can easily put the ramdisk in a location which causes this test to trigger, breaking things.

On some sun4v systems, after netboot the ethernet controller and it's DMA mappings can be left active. The net result is that the kernel can end up using memory the ethernet controller will continue to DMA into, resulting in corruption. To deal with this, we are more careful about importing IOMMU translations which OBP has left in the IO-TLB. If the mapping maps into an area the firmware claimed was free and available memory for the kernel to use, we demap instead of import that IOMMU entry. This is going to cause the network chip to take a PCI master abort on the next DMA it attempts, if it has been left going like this. All tests show that this is handled properly by the PCI layer and the e1000 drivers. Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

set_page_count usage outside mm/ is limited to setting the refcount to 1. Remove set_page_count from outside mm/, and replace those users with init_page_count() and set_page_refcounted(). This allows more debug checking, and tighter control on how code is allowed to play around with page->_count.

This is good for up to %50 performance improvement of some test cases. The problem has been the race conditions, and hopefully I've plugged them all up here. 1) There was a serious race in switch_mm() wrt. lazy TLB switching to and from kernel threads. We could erroneously skip a tsb_context_switch() and thus use a stale TSB across a TSB grow event. There is a big comment now in that function describing exactly how it can happen. 2) All code paths that do something with the TSB need to be guarded with the mm->context.lock spinlock. This makes page table flushing paths properly synchronize with both TSB growing and TLB context changes. 3) TSB growing events are moved to the end of successful fault processing. Previously it was in update_mmu_cache() but that is deadlock prone. At the end of do_sparc64_fault() we hold no spinlocks that could deadlock the TSB grow sequence. We also have dropped the address space semaphore. While we're here, add prefetching to the copy_tsb() routine and put it in assembler into the tsb.S file. This piece of code is quite time critical. There are some small negative side effects to this code which can be improved upon. In particular we grab the mm->context.lock even for the tsb insert done by update_mmu_cache() now and that's a bit excessive. We can get rid of that locking, and the same lock taking in flush_tsb_user(), by disabling PSTATE_IE around the whole operation including the capturing of the tsb pointer and tsb_nentries value. That would work because anyone growing the TSB won't free up the old TSB until all cpus respond to the TSB change cross call. I'm not quite so confident in that optimization to put it in right now, but eventually we might be able to and the description is here for reference. This code seems very solid now. It passes several parallel GCC bootstrap builds, and our favorite "nut cruncher" stress test which is a full "make -j8192" build of a "make allmodconfig" kernel. That puts about 256 processes on each cpu's run queue, makes lots of process cpu migrations occur, causes lots of page table and TLB flushing activity, incurs many context version number changes, and it swaps the machine real far out to disk even though there is 16GB of ram on this test system. :-) Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

The page->flags manipulations done by the D-cache dirty state tracking was broken because the constants were not marked with "UL" to make them 64-bit, which means we were clobbering the upper 32-bits of page->flags all the time. This doesn't jive well with sparsemem which stores the section and indexing information in the top 32-bits of page->flags. This is yet another sparc64 bug which has been with us forever. While we're here, tidy up some things in bootmem_init() and paginig_init(): 1) Pass min_low_pfn to init_bootmem_node(), it's identical to (phys_base >> PAGE_SHIFT) but we should use consistent with the variable names we print in CONFIG_BOOTMEM_DEBUG 2) max_mapnr, although no longer used, was being set inaccurately, we shouldn't subtract pfn_base any more. 3) All the games with phys_base in the zones_*[] arrays we pass to free_area_init_node() are no longer necessary. Thanks to Josh Grebe and Fabbione for the bug reports and testing. Fix also verified locally on an SB2500 which had a memory layout that triggered the same problem. Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

1) Always spin_lock_init() in init_context(). The caller essentially clears it out, or copies the mm info from the parent. In both cases we need to explicitly initialize the spinlock. 2) Always do explicit IRQ disabling while taking mm->context.lock and ctx_alloc_lock. Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

Don't try to avoid putting non-base page sized entries into the user TSB. It actually costs us more to check this than it helps. Eventually we'll have a multiple TSB scheme for user processes. Once a process starts using larger pages, we'll allocate and use such a TSB. Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

The context allocation scheme we use depends upon there being a 1<-->1 mapping from cpu to physical TLB for correctness. Chips like Niagara break this assumption. So what we do is notify all cpus with a cross call when the context version number changes, and if necessary this makes them allocate a valid context for the address space they are running at the time.

It can map all of the linear kernel mappings with zero TSB hash conflicts for systems with 16GB or less ram.

We use a bitmap, one bit for every 256MB of memory. If the bit is set we can use a 256MB PTE for linear mappings, else we have to use a 4MB PTE. SUN4V support is there, and we can very easily add support for Panther cpu 256MB PTEs in the future. Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

The SUN4V convention with non-shared TSBs is that the context bit of the TAG is clear. So we have to choose an "invalid" bit and initialize new TSBs appropriately. Otherwise a zero TAG looks "valid". Make sure, for the window fixup cases, that we use the right global registers and that we don't potentially trample on the live global registers in etrap/rtrap handling (%g2 and %g6) and that we put the missing virtual address properly in %g5.
