Add array interface APIs of pageattr. page based cache flush is quite slow for a lot of pages. If pages are more than 1024 (4M), the patch will use a wbinvd(). We have a simple test here (run a 3d game - open arena), nearly all agp memory allocation are small (< 1M), so suppose this will not impact runtime performance.

Introduce two APIs for page attribute. flushing tlb/cache in every page attribute is expensive. AGP gart usually will do a lot of operations to change a page to uc, new APIs can reduce flush.

The new cacheflush.h API's didn't have any comments describing how they're to be used yet and the conventions around these functions. This patch adds comments to this effect; in order for that to be a logical series, some prototypes had to move around.

Add a new function to force split large pages into 4k pages. This is needed for some followup optimizations. I had to add a new field to cpa_data to pass down the information that try_preserve_large_page should not run. Right now no set_page_4k() because I didn't need it and all the specialized users I have in mind would be more comfortable with pure addresses. I also didn't export it because it's unlikely external code needs it.

Use reserve_memtype and free_memtype interfaces in set_memory_uc/set_memory_wb interfaces to avoid aliasing. Usage model of set_memory_uc and set_memory_wb is for RAM memory and users will first call set_memory_uc and call set_memory_wb after use to reset the attribute.

extern should not appear in C files. Also, the definitions do not match the prototype currently, not sure what way you want to go with this, I've switched the prototype to return int, but I can see going to the void return as well.

DEBUG_PAGEALLOC was not possible on 64-bit due to its early-bootup hardcoded reliance on PSE pages, and the unrobustness of the runtime splitup of large pages. The splitup ended in recursive calls to alloc_pages() when a page for a pte split was requested. Avoid the recursion with a preallocated page pool, which is used to split up large mappings and gets refilled in the return path of kernel_map_pages after the split has been done. The size of the page pool is adjusted to the available memory. This part just implements the page pool and the initialization w/o using it yet.

Latest update; I now have 4 NX tests, but 2 fail so they're #if 0'd. I also cleaned up the NX test code quite a bit, and got rid of the ugly exception table sorting stuff. From: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@linux.intel.com> This patch adds testcases for the CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA configuration option as well as the NX CPU feature/mappings. Both testcases can move to tests/ once that patch gets merged into mainline. (I'm half considering moving the rodata test into mm/init.c but I'll wait with that until init.c is unified) As part of this I had to fix a not-quite-right alignment in the vmlinux.lds.h for the RODATA sections, which lead to 1 page less being marked read only.

change_page_attr_add is only used in pageattr.c now, so we can make this function static. change_page_attr() isn't used anywere at all anymore; this function is a really bad API anyway so just remove the bloat entirely.

With the introduction of the new API, no driver or non-archcore code needs to use c-p-a anymore, so this patch also deprecates the EXPORT_SYMBOL of CPA (it's a horrible API after all).

Right now, if drivers or other code want to change, say, a cache attribute of a page, the only API they have is change_page_attr(). c-p-a is a really bad API for this, because it forces the caller to know *ALL* the attributes he wants for the page, not just the 1 thing he wants to change. So code that wants to set a page uncachable, needs to be aware of the NX status as well etc etc etc. This patch introduces a set of new APIs for this, set_pages_<attr> and set_memory_<attr>, that offer a logical change to the user, and leave all attributes not implied by the requested logical change alone.

get more testing of the c_p_a() code done by not turning off PSE on DEBUG_PAGEALLOC. this simplifies the early pagetable setup code, and tests the largepage-splitup code quite heavily. In the end, all the largepages will be split up pretty quickly, so there's no difference to how DEBUG_PAGEALLOC worked before.
