    sparc64: Fix huge TSB mapping on pre-UltraSPARC-III cpus. · b18eb2d7
    David S. Miller 提交于
    Access to the TSB hash tables during TLB misses requires that there be
    an atomic 128-bit quad load available so that we fetch a matching TAG
    and DATA field at the same time.
    
    On cpus prior to UltraSPARC-III only virtual address based quad loads
    are available.  UltraSPARC-III and later provide physical address
    based variants which are easier to use.
    
    When we only have virtual address based quad loads available this
    means that we have to lock the TSB into the TLB at a fixed virtual
    address on each cpu when it runs that process.  We can't just access
    the PAGE_OFFSET based aliased mapping of these TSBs because we cannot
    take a recursive TLB miss inside of the TLB miss handler without
    risking running out of hardware trap levels (some trap combinations
    can be deep, such as those generated by register window spill and fill
    traps).
    
    Without huge pages it's working perfectly fine, but when the huge TSB
    got added another chunk of fixed virtual address space was not
    allocated for this second TSB mapping.
    
    So we were mapping both the 8K and 4MB TSBs to the same exact virtual
    address, causing multiple TLB matches which gives undefined behavior.
