      [PATCH] swiotlb: make sure initial DMA allocations really are in DMA memory · 281dd25c
      由 Yasunori Goto 提交于 
      This introduces a limit parameter to the core bootmem allocator; The new
parameter indicates that physical memory allocated by the bootmem
allocator should be within the requested limit.

We also introduce alloc_bootmem_low_pages_limit, alloc_bootmem_node_limit,
alloc_bootmem_low_pages_node_limit apis, but alloc_bootmem_low_pages_limit
is the only api used for swiotlb.

The existing alloc_bootmem_low_pages() api could instead have been
changed and made to pass right limit to the core allocator.  But that
would make the patch more intrusive for 2.6.14, as other arches use
alloc_bootmem_low_pages().  We may be done that post 2.6.14 as a
cleanup.

With this, swiotlb gets memory within 4G for both x86_64 and ia64
arches.

      [PATCH] mm: hugetlb truncation fixes · 1c59827d
      由 Hugh Dickins 提交于 
      hugetlbfs allows truncation of its files (should it?), but hugetlb.c often
forgets that: crashes and misaccounting ensue.

copy_hugetlb_page_range better grab the src page_table_lock since we don't
want to guess what happens if concurrently truncated.  unmap_hugepage_range
rss accounting must not assume the full range was mapped.  follow_hugetlb_page
must guard with page_table_lock and be prepared to exit early.

Restyle copy_hugetlb_page_range with a for loop like the others there.

      [PATCH] Handle spurious page fault for hugetlb region · 3359b54c
      由 Seth, Rohit 提交于 
      The hugetlb pages are currently pre-faulted.  At the time of mmap of
hugepages, we populate the new PTEs.  It is possible that HW has already
cached some of the unused PTEs internally.  These stale entries never
get a chance to be purged in existing control flow.

This patch extends the check in page fault code for hugepages.  Check if
a faulted address falls with in size for the hugetlb file backing it.
We return VM_FAULT_MINOR for these cases (assuming that the arch
specific page-faulting code purges the stale entry for the archs that
need it).

[ This is apparently arguably an ia64 port bug. But the code won't
  hurt, and for now it fixes a real problem on some ia64 machines ]

      Fix memory ordering bug in page reclaim · 3d80636a
      由 Linus Torvalds 提交于 
      As noticed by Nick Piggin, we need to make sure that we check the page
count before we check for PageDirty, since the dirty check is only valid
if the count implies that we're the only possible ones holding the page.

We always did do this, but the code needs a read-memory-barrier to make
sure that the orderign is also honored by the CPU.

(The writer side is ordered due to the atomic decrement and test on the
page count, see the discussion on linux-kernel)
