On most powerpc CPUs, the dcache and icache are not coherent so between writing and executing a page, the caches must be flushed. Userspace programs assume pages given to them by the kernel are icache clean, so we must do this flush between the kernel clearing a page and it being mapped into userspace for execute. We were not doing this for hugepages, this patch corrects the situation. We use the same lazy mechanism as we use for normal pages, delaying the flush until userspace actually attempts to execute from the page in question. Tested on G5.

For these, I have just done the lame-o merge where the file ends up looking like: #ifndef CONFIG_PPC64 #include <asm-ppc/foo.h> #else ... contents from asm-ppc64/foo.h #endif so nothing has changed, really, except that we reduce include/asm-ppc64 a bit more.

This patch merges platform codes. systemcfg->platform is no longer used, systemcfg use in general is deprecated as much as possible (and renamed _systemcfg before it gets completely moved elsewhere in a future patch), _machine is now used on ppc64 along as ppc32. Platform codes aren't gone yet but we are getting a step closer. A bunch of asm code in head[_64].S is also turned into C code.

This patch consolidates macros used to generate assembly for compatibility across different CPUs or configs. A new header, asm-powerpc/asm-compat.h contains the main compatibility macros. It uses some preprocessor magic to make the macros suitable both for use in .S files, and in inline asm in .c files. Headers (bitops.h, uaccess.h, atomic.h, bug.h) which had their own such compatibility macros are changed to use asm-compat.h. ppc_asm.h is now for use in .S files *only*, and a #error enforces that. As such, we're a lot more careless about namespace pollution here than in asm-compat.h. While we're at it, this patch adds a call to the PPC405_ERR77 macro in futex.h which should have had it already, but didn't. Built and booted on pSeries, Maple and iSeries (ARCH=powerpc). Built for 32-bit powermac (ARCH=powerpc) and Walnut (ARCH=ppc). Signed-off-by: NDavid Gibson <dwg@au1.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: NPaul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

Adds a new CONFIG_PPC_64K_PAGES which, when enabled, changes the kernel base page size to 64K. The resulting kernel still boots on any hardware. On current machines with 4K pages support only, the kernel will maintain 16 "subpages" for each 64K page transparently. Note that while real 64K capable HW has been tested, the current patch will not enable it yet as such hardware is not released yet, and I'm still verifying with the firmware architects the proper to get the information from the newer hypervisors.

early_setup() calls htab_initialize() which is similar, but not identical to iSeries_bolt_kernel(). On iSeries the Hypervisor has already inserted some ptes for us, and we simply have to detect that and bolt them. iSeries_hpte_bolt_or_insert() implements that logic. For the case of a non-existing pte we just call iSeries_hpte_insert(). This appears to work, although it's not entirely equivalent to the old code in iSeries_make_pte() which panicked if we got a secondary slot. Not sure if that's important. Finally we call iSeries_hpte_bolt_or_insert() from create_pte_mapping(), which is called from htab_initialize() for each lmb region.

Merged ppc_asm.h between ppc32 & ppc64. The majority of the file is common between the two architectures excluding how a single GPR is saved/restored and which GPRs are non-volatile.

Currently, we set the class bit in kernel SLB entries, and clear it on user SLB entries. On POWER5, ERAT entries created in real mode have the class bit clear. So to avoid flushing kernel ERAT entries on each context switch, this patch inverts our usage of the class bit, setting it on user SLB entries and clearing it on kernel SLB entries. Booted on POWER5 and G5. Signed-off-by: NDavid Gibson <dwg@au1.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: NPaul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

Paulus, I think this is now a reasonable candidate for the post-2.6.13 queue. Relax address restrictions for hugepages on ppc64 Presently, 64-bit applications on ppc64 may only use hugepages in the address region from 1-1.5T. Furthermore, if hugepages are enabled in the kernel config, they may only use hugepages and never normal pages in this area. This patch relaxes this restriction, allowing any address to be used with hugepages, but with a 1TB granularity. That is if you map a hugepage anywhere in the region 1TB-2TB, that entire area will be reserved exclusively for hugepages for the remainder of the process's lifetime. This works analagously to hugepages in 32-bit applications, where hugepages can be mapped anywhere, but with 256MB (mmu segment) granularity. This patch applies on top of the four level pagetable patch (http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/linuxppc64/patch?id=1936).

On ppc64 machines with segment tables, CPU0's segment table is at a fixed address, currently 0x9000. This patch moves it to the free space at 0x6000, just below the fwnmi data area. This saves 8k of space in vmlinux and the runtime kernel image. Signed-off-by: NDavid Gibson <dwg@au1.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: NPaul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

Implement 4-level pagetables for ppc64 This patch implements full four-level page tables for ppc64, thereby extending the usable user address range to 44 bits (16T). The patch uses a full page for the tables at the bottom and top level, and a quarter page for the intermediate levels. It uses full 64-bit pointers at every level, thus also increasing the addressable range of physical memory. This patch also tweaks the VSID allocation to allow matching range for user addresses (this halves the number of available contexts) and adds some #if and BUILD_BUG sanity checks.

Presently the LparMap, one of the structures the kernel shares with the legacy iSeries hypervisor has a fixed offset address in head.S. This patch changes this so the LparMap is a normally initialized structure, without fixed address. This allows us to use macros to compute some of the values in the structure, which wasn't previously possible because the assembler always uses signed-% which gets the wrong answers for the computations in question. Unfortunately, a gcc bug means that doing this requires another structure (hvReleaseData) to be initialized in asm instead of C, but on the whole the result is cleaner than before.

PPC64 machines before Power4 need a segment table page allocated for each CPU. Currently these are allocated statically in a big array in head.S for all CPUs. The segment tables need to be in the first segment (so do_stab_bolted doesn't take a recursive fault on the stab itself), but other than that there are no constraints which require the stabs for the secondary CPUs to be statically allocated. This patch allocates segment tables dynamically during boot, using lmb_alloc() to ensure they are within the first 256M segment. This reduces the kernel image size by 192k... Tested on RS64 iSeries, POWER3 pSeries, and POWER5.

This patch started as simply removing a few never-used macros from asm-ppc64/pgtable.h, then kind of grew. It now makes a bunch of cleanups to the ppc64 low-level header files (with corresponding changes to .c files where necessary) such as: - Abolishing never-used macros - Eliminating multiple #defines with the same purpose - Removing pointless macros (cases where just expanding the macro everywhere turns out clearer and more sensible) - Removing some cases where macros which could be defined in terms of each other weren't - Moving imalloc() related definitions from pgtable.h to their own header file (imalloc.h) - Re-arranging headers to group things more logically - Moving all VSID allocation related things to mmu.h, instead of being split between mmu.h and mmu_context.h - Removing some reserved space for flags from the PMD - we're not using it. - Fix some bugs which broke compile with STRICT_MM_TYPECHECKS.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
