      sparc64: Eliminate PTE table memory wastage. · c460bec7
      由 David Miller 提交于 
      We've split up the PTE tables so that they take up half a page instead of
a full page.  This is in order to facilitate transparent huge page
support, which works much better if our PMDs cover 4MB instead of 8MB.

What we do is have a one-behind cache for PTE table allocations in the
mm struct.

This logic triggers only on allocations.  For example, we don't try to
keep track of free'd up page table blocks in the style that the s390 port
does.

There were only two slightly annoying aspects to this change:

1) Changing pgtable_t to be a "pte_t *".  There's all of this special
   logic in the TLB free paths that needed adjustments, as did the
   PMD populate interfaces.

2) init_new_context() needs to zap the pointer, since the mm struct
   just gets copied from the parent on fork.

      sparc64: Only support 4MB huge pages and 8KB base pages. · 15b9350a
      由 David Miller 提交于 
      Narrowing the scope of the page size configurations will make the
transparent hugepage changes much simpler.

In the end what we really want to do is have the kernel support multiple
huge page sizes and use whatever is appropriate as the context dictactes.

      readahead: fault retry breaks mmap file read random detection · 45cac65b
      由 Shaohua Li 提交于 
      .fault now can retry.  The retry can break state machine of .fault.  In
filemap_fault, if page is miss, ra->mmap_miss is increased.  In the second
try, since the page is in page cache now, ra->mmap_miss is decreased.  And
these are done in one fault, so we can't detect random mmap file access.

Add a new flag to indicate .fault is tried once.  In the second try, skip
ra->mmap_miss decreasing.  The filemap_fault state machine is ok with it.

I only tested x86, didn't test other archs, but looks the change for other
archs is obvious, but who knows :)

      sparc64: Use cpu_pgsz_mask for linear kernel mapping config. · c69ad0a3
      由 David S. Miller 提交于 
      This required a little bit of reordering of how we set up the memory
management early on.

We now only know the final values of kern_linear_pte_xor[] after we
take over the trap table and start processing TLB misses ourselves.

So once we fill those values in we re-clear the kernel's 4M TSB and
flush the TLBs.  That way if we find we support larger than 4M pages
we won't have any stale smaller page size entries in the TSB.

SUN4U Panther support for larger page sizes should now be extremely
trivial but I have no hardware on which to test it and I believe
that some of the sun4u TLB miss assembler needs to be audited first
to make sure it really can handle larger than 4M PTEs properly.

      sparc64: Probe cpu page size support more portably. · ce33fdc5
      由 David S. Miller 提交于 
      On sun4v, interrogate the machine description.  This code is extremely
defensive in nature, and a lot of the checks can probably be removed.

On sun4u things are a lot simpler.  There are the page sizes all chips
support, and then Panther adds 32MB and 256MB pages.

Report the probed value in /proc/cpuinfo

      sparc64: Support 2GB and 16GB page sizes for kernel linear mappings. · 4f93d21d
      由 David S. Miller 提交于 
      SPARC-T4 supports 2GB pages.

So convert kpte_linear_bitmap into an array of 2-bit values which
index into kern_linear_pte_xor.

Now kern_linear_pte_xor is used for 4 page size aligned regions,
4MB, 256MB, 2GB, and 16GB respectively.

Enabling 2GB pages is currently hardcoded using a check against
sun4v_chip_type.  In the future this will be done more cleanly
by interrogating the machine description which is the correct
way to determine this kind of thing.

      sparc64: Be less verbose during vmemmap population. · 2856cc2e
      由 David S. Miller 提交于 
      On a 2-node machine with 256GB of ram we get 512 lines of
console output, which is just too much.

This mimicks Yinghai Lu's x86 commit c2b91e2e
(x86_64/mm: check and print vmemmap allocation continuous) except that
we aren't ever going to get contiguous block pointers in between calls
so just print when the virtual address or node changes.

This decreases the output by an order of 16.

Also demote this to KERN_DEBUG.
