Some high end Intel Xeon systems report uncorrectable memory errors as a recoverable machine check. Linux has included code for some time to process these and just signal the affected processes (or even recover completely if the error was in a read only page that can be replaced by reading from disk). But we have no recovery path for errors encountered during kernel code execution. Except for some very specific cases were are unlikely to ever be able to recover. Enter memory mirroring. Actually 3rd generation of memory mirroing. Gen1: All memory is mirrored Pro: No s/w enabling - h/w just gets good data from other side of the mirror Con: Halves effective memory capacity available to OS/applications Gen2: Partial memory mirror - just mirror memory begind some memory controllers Pro: Keep more of the capacity Con: Nightmare to enable. Have to choose between allocating from mirrored memory for safety vs. NUMA local memory for performance Gen3: Address range partial memory mirror - some mirror on each memory controller Pro: Can tune the amount of mirror and keep NUMA performance Con: I have to write memory management code to implement The current plan is just to use mirrored memory for kernel allocations. This has been broken into two phases: 1) This patch series - find the mirrored memory, use it for boot time allocations 2) Wade into mm/page_alloc.c and define a ZONE_MIRROR to pick up the unused mirrored memory from mm/memblock.c and only give it out to select kernel allocations (this is still being scoped because page_alloc.c is scary). This patch (of 3): Add extra "flags" to memblock to allow selection of memory based on attribute.

We don't bother about other functions like pmdp_set_wrprotect, pmdp_clear_flush_young, because they operate on PTE bits and hence indicate they are operating on hugepage ptes Signed-off-by: NAneesh Kumar K.V <aneesh.kumar@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Acked-by: NKirill A.

CRIU is recreating the process memory layout by remapping the checkpointee memory area on top of the current process (criu). This includes remapping the vDSO to the place it has at checkpoint time. However some architectures like powerpc are keeping a reference to the vDSO base address to build the signal return stack frame by calling the vDSO sigreturn service. So once the vDSO has been moved, this reference is no more valid and the signal frame built later are not usable. This patch serie is introducing a new mm hook framework, and a new arch_remap hook which is called when mremap is done and the mm lock still hold. The next patch is adding the vDSO remap and unmap tracking to the powerpc architecture. This patch (of 3): This patch introduces a new set of header file to manage mm hooks: - per architecture empty header file (arch/x/include/asm/mm-arch-hooks.h) - a generic header (include/linux/mm-arch-hooks.h) The architecture which need to overwrite a hook as to redefine it in its header file, while architecture which doesn't need have nothing to do. The default hooks are defined in the generic header and are used in the case the architecture is not defining it. In a next step, mm hooks defined in include/asm-generic/mm_hooks.h should be moved here.

This replaces the plain loop over the sglist array with for_each_sg() macro which consists of sg_next() function calls.

Add ioremap_wt() to all arch-specific asm/io.h headers which define ioremap_wc() locally. These headers do not include <asm-generic/iomap.h>. Some of them include <asm-generic/io.h>, but ioremap_wt() is defined for consistency since they define all ioremap_xxx locally. In all architectures without Write-Through support, ioremap_wt() is defined indentical to ioremap_nocache(). frv and m68k already have ioremap_writethrough(). On those we add ioremap_wt() indetical to ioremap_writethrough() and defines ARCH_HAS_IOREMAP_WT in both architectures. The ioremap_wt() interface is exported to drivers.

sparc: Resolve conflict between sparc v9 and M7 on usage of bit 9 of TTE Bit 9 of TTE is CV (Cacheable in V-cache) on sparc v9 processor while the same bit 9 is MCDE (Memory Corruption Detection Enable) on M7 processor. This creates a conflicting usage of the same bit. Kernel sets TTE.cv bit on all pages for sun4v architecture which works well for sparc v9 but enables memory corruption detection on M7 processor which is not the intent. This patch adds code to determine if kernel is running on M7 processor and takes steps to not enable memory corruption detection in TTE erroneously.

Introduce faulthandler_disabled() and use it to check for irq context and disabled pagefaults (via pagefault_disable()) in the pagefault handlers. Please note that we keep the in_atomic() checks in place - to detect whether in irq context (in which case preemption is always properly disabled). In contrast, preempt_disable() should never be used to disable pagefaults. With !CONFIG_PREEMPT_COUNT, preempt_disable() doesn't modify the preempt counter, and therefore the result of in_atomic() differs. We validate that condition by using might_fault() checks when calling might_sleep(). Therefore, add a comment to faulthandler_disabled(), describing why this is needed. faulthandler_disabled() and pagefault_disable() are defined in linux/uaccess.h, so let's properly add that include to all relevant files.

The code was handling an allocation failure and propagated it properly up the callchain so it is not clear why it is needed. Dave has clarified the intention when I tried to remove the flag as not being necessary: : It is a serious failure. : : If we miss an MDESC update due to this allocation failure, the update : is not an event which gets retransmitted so we will lose the updated : machine description forever. : : We really need this allocation to succeed. So add a comment to clarify the nofail flag and get rid of the failure check because __GFP_NOFAIL allocation doesn't fail.

This reverts commit d63e2e1f. David Ahern reported that d63e2e1f breaks booting on an 8-socket T5 sparc system. He also verified that the system boots with d63e2e1f reverted. Yinghai has some fixes, but they need a little more polishing than we can do before v4.0.

Firstly, handle zero length calls properly. Believe it or not there are a few of these happening during early boot. Next, we can't just drop to a memcpy() call in the forward copy case where dst <= src. The reason is that the cache initializing stores used in the Niagara memcpy() implementations can end up clearing out cache lines before we've sourced their original contents completely. For example, considering NG4memcpy, the main unrolled loop begins like this: load src + 0x00 load src + 0x08 load src + 0x10 load src + 0x18 load src + 0x20 store dst + 0x00 Assume dst is 64 byte aligned and let's say that dst is src - 8 for this memcpy() call. That store at the end there is the one to the first line in the cache line, thus clearing the whole line, which thus clobbers "src + 0x28" before it even gets loaded. To avoid this, just fall through to a simple copy only mildly optimized for the case where src and dst are 8 byte aligned and the length is a multiple of 8 as well. We could get fancy and call GENmemcpy() but this is good enough for how this thing is actually used.

With the increase in number of CPUs calls to functions that dump output to console (e.g., arch_trigger_all_cpu_backtrace) can take a long time to complete. If IRQs are disabled eventually the NMI watchdog kicks in and creates more havoc. Avoid by telling the NMI watchdog everything is ok.

The M7 processor has a different hypervisor group id and different PCR fast trap values. PIC read/write functions and PCR bit fields are the same as the T4 so those are reused.

Currently perf-stat (aka, counting mode) does not work: $ perf stat ls ... Performance counter stats for 'ls': 1.585665 task-clock (msec) # 0.580 CPUs utilized 24 context-switches # 0.015 M/sec 0 cpu-migrations # 0.000 K/sec 86 page-faults # 0.054 M/sec <not supported> cycles <not supported> stalled-cycles-frontend <not supported> stalled-cycles-backend <not supported> instructions <not supported> branches <not supported> branch-misses 0.002735100 seconds time elapsed The reason is that state is never reset (stays with PERF_HES_UPTODATE set). Add a call to sparc_pmu_enable_event during the added_event handling. Clean up the encoding since pmu_start calls sparc_pmu_enable_event which does the same. Passing PERF_EF_RELOAD to sparc_pmu_start means the call to sparc_perf_event_set_period can be removed as well. With this patch: $ perf stat ls ... Performance counter stats for 'ls': 1.552890 task-clock (msec) # 0.552 CPUs utilized 24 context-switches # 0.015 M/sec 0 cpu-migrations # 0.000 K/sec 86 page-faults # 0.055 M/sec 5,748,997 cycles # 3.702 GHz <not supported> stalled-cycles-frontend:HG <not supported> stalled-cycles-backend:HG 1,684,362 instructions:HG # 0.29 insns per cycle 295,133 branches:HG # 190.054 M/sec 28,007 branch-misses:HG # 9.49% of all branches 0.002815665 seconds time elapsed Signed-off-by: NDavid Ahern <david.ahern@oracle.com> Acked-by: NBob Picco <bob.picco@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

perf_pmu_disable is called by core perf code before pmu->del and the enable function is called by core perf code afterwards. No need to call again within sparc_pmu_del.
