      mm: stack based kmap_atomic() · 3e4d3af5
      Peter Zijlstra 提交于
      Keep the current interface but ignore the KM_type and use a stack based
      approach.
      
      The advantage is that we get rid of crappy code like:
      
      	#define __KM_PTE			\
      		(in_nmi() ? KM_NMI_PTE : 	\
      		 in_irq() ? KM_IRQ_PTE :	\
      		 KM_PTE0)
      
      and in general can stop worrying about what context we're in and what kmap
      slots might be appropriate for that.
      
      The downside is that FRV kmap_atomic() gets more expensive.
      
      For now we use a CPP trick suggested by Andrew:
      
        #define kmap_atomic(page, args...) __kmap_atomic(page)
      
      to avoid having to touch all kmap_atomic() users in a single patch.

      memblock, bootmem: Round pfn properly for memory and reserved regions · c7fc2de0
      Yinghai Lu 提交于
      We need to round memory regions correctly -- specifically, we need to
      round reserved region in the more expansive direction (lower limit
      down, upper limit up) whereas usable memory regions need to be rounded
      in the more restrictive direction (lower limit up, upper limit down).
      
      This introduces two set of inlines:
      
      	memblock_region_memory_base_pfn()
      	memblock_region_memory_end_pfn()
      	memblock_region_reserved_base_pfn()
      	memblock_region_reserved_end_pfn()
      
      Although they are antisymmetric (and therefore are technically
      duplicates) the use of the different inlines explicitly documents the
      programmer's intention.
      
      The lack of proper rounding caused a bug on ARM, which was then found
      to also affect other architectures.

      kmap_atomic: make kunmap_atomic() harder to misuse · 597781f3
      Cesar Eduardo Barros 提交于
      kunmap_atomic() is currently at level -4 on Rusty's "Hard To Misuse"
      list[1] ("Follow common convention and you'll get it wrong"), except in
      some architectures when CONFIG_DEBUG_HIGHMEM is set[2][3].
      
      kunmap() takes a pointer to a struct page; kunmap_atomic(), however, takes
      takes a pointer to within the page itself.  This seems to once in a while
      trip people up (the convention they are following is the one from
      kunmap()).
      
      Make it much harder to misuse, by moving it to level 9 on Rusty's list[4]
      ("The compiler/linker won't let you get it wrong").  This is done by
      refusing to build if the type of its first argument is a pointer to a
      struct page.
      
      The real kunmap_atomic() is renamed to kunmap_atomic_notypecheck()
      (which is what you would call in case for some strange reason calling it
      with a pointer to a struct page is not incorrect in your code).
      
      The previous version of this patch was compile tested on x86-64.
      
      [1] http://ozlabs.org/~rusty/index.cgi/tech/2008-04-01.html
      [2] In these cases, it is at level 5, "Do it right or it will always
          break at runtime."
      [3] At least mips and powerpc look very similar, and sparc also seems to
          share a common ancestor with both; there seems to be quite some
          degree of copy-and-paste coding here. The include/asm/highmem.h file
          for these three archs mention x86 CPUs at its top.
      [4] http://ozlabs.org/~rusty/index.cgi/tech/2008-03-30.html
      [5] As an aside, could someone tell me why mn10300 uses unsigned long as
          the first parameter of kunmap_atomic() instead of void *?

      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.

      MM: Pass a PTE pointer to update_mmu_cache() rather than the PTE itself · 4b3073e1
      Russell King 提交于
      On VIVT ARM, when we have multiple shared mappings of the same file
      in the same MM, we need to ensure that we have coherency across all
      copies.  We do this via make_coherent() by making the pages
      uncacheable.
      
      This used to work fine, until we allowed highmem with highpte - we
      now have a page table which is mapped as required, and is not available
      for modification via update_mmu_cache().
      
      Ralf Beache suggested getting rid of the PTE value passed to
      update_mmu_cache():
      
        On MIPS update_mmu_cache() calls __update_tlb() which walks pagetables
        to construct a pointer to the pte again.  Passing a pte_t * is much
        more elegant.  Maybe we might even replace the pte argument with the
        pte_t?
      
      Ben Herrenschmidt would also like the pte pointer for PowerPC:
      
        Passing the ptep in there is exactly what I want.  I want that
        -instead- of the PTE value, because I have issue on some ppc cases,
        for I$/D$ coherency, where set_pte_at() may decide to mask out the
        _PAGE_EXEC.
      
      So, pass in the mapped page table pointer into update_mmu_cache(), and
      remove the PTE value, updating all implementations and call sites to
      suit.

      sparc64: Fix definition of VMEMMAP_SIZE. · bffbc94a
      David S. Miller 提交于
      This was the cause of various boot failures on V480, V880, etc.
      systems.
      
      Kernel image memory was being overwritten because the vmemmap[]
      array was being sized to small.  So if you had physical memory
      addresses past a certain point, the early bootup would spam
      all over variables in the kernel data section.
      
      The vmemmap mappings map page structs, not page struct pointers.
      And that was the key thinko in the macro definition.
      
      This was fixable thanks to the help, reports, and tireless patience
      of Hermann Lauer.

      sparc64: Validate linear D-TLB misses. · d8ed1d43
      David S. Miller 提交于
      When page alloc debugging is not enabled, we essentially accept any
      virtual address for linear kernel TLB misses.  But with kgdb, kernel
      address probing, and other facilities we can try to access arbitrary
      crap.
      
      So, make sure the address we miss on will translate to physical memory
      that actually exists.
      
      In order to make this work we have to embed the valid address bitmap
      into the kernel image.  And in order to make that less expensive we
      make an adjustment, in that the max physical memory address is
      decreased to "1 << 41", even on the chips that support a 42-bit
      physical address space.  We can do this because bit 41 indicates
      "I/O space" and thus covers non-memory ranges.
      
      The result of this is that:
      
      1) kpte_linear_bitmap shrinks from 2K to 1K in size
      
      2) we need 64K more for the valid address bitmap
      
      We can't let the valid address bitmap be dynamically allocated
      once we start using it to validate TLB misses, otherwise we have
      crazy issues to deal with wrt. recursive TLB misses and such.
      
      If we're in a TLB miss it could be the deepest trap level that's legal
      inside of the cpu.  So if we TLB miss referencing the bitmap, the cpu
      will be out of trap levels and enter RED state.
      
      To guard against out-of-range accesses to the bitmap, we have to check
      to make sure no bits in the physical address above bit 40 are set.  We
      could export and use last_valid_pfn for this check, but that's just an
      unnecessary extra memory reference.
      
      On the plus side of all this, since we load all of these translations
      into the special 4MB mapping TSB, and we check the TSB first for TLB
      misses, there should be absolutely no real cost for these new checks
      in the TLB miss path.
