If you actually clear the bit, you need to:
+ pte_update_defer(vma->vm_mm, addr, ptep);
The reason is, when updating PTEs, the hypervisor must be notified. Using
atomic operations to do this is fine for all hypervisors I am aware of.
However, for hypervisors which shadow page tables, if these PTE
modifications are not trapped, you need a post-modification call to fulfill
the update of the shadow page table.

Not a happy solution, but those warnings are obnoxious.

Generally we work under the assumption that memory the mem_map array is

any other. This is not true when CONFIG_HOLES_IN_ZONE is set and we must
check each and every reference we make from a pfn.
Add a pfn_valid_within() helper which should be used when scanning pages
within a MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES block when we have already checked the validility
of the block normally with pfn_valid(). This can then be optimised away when
we do not have holes within a MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES block of pages.

At present, the serial core always allows setserial in userspace to change the
port address, irq and base clock of any serial port. That makes sense for
legacy ISA ports, but not for (say) embedded ns16550 compatible serial ports
at peculiar addresses. In these cases, the kernel code configuring the ports
must know exactly where they are, and their clocking arrangements (which can
be unusual on embedded boards). It doesn't make sense for userspace to change
these settings.
Therefore, this patch defines a UPF_FIXED_PORT flag for the uart_port
structure. If this flag is set when the serial port is configured, any
attempts to alter the port's type, io address, irq or base clock with
setserial are ignored.
In addition this patch uses the new flag for on-chip serial ports probed in
arch/powerpc/kernel/legacy_serial.c, and for other hard-wired serial ports
probed by drivers/serial/of_serial.c.

Serial driver patch for the PMC-Sierra MSP71xx devices.
There are three different fixes:
1 Fix for DesignWare APB THRE errata: In brief, this is a non-standard
16550 in that the THRE interrupt will not re-assert itself simply by
disabling and re-enabling the THRI bit in the IER, it is only re-enabled
if a character is actually sent out.
It appears that the "8250-uart-backup-timer.patch" in the "mm" tree
also fixes it so we have dropped our initial workaround. This patch now
needs to be applied on top of that "mm" patch.
2 Fix for Busy Detect on LCR write: The DesignWare APB UART has a feature
which causes a new Busy Detect interrupt to be generated if it's busy
when the LCR is written. This fix saves the value of the LCR and
rewrites it after clearing the interrupt.
3 Workaround for interrupt/data concurrency issue: The SoC needs to
ensure that writes that can cause interrupts to be cleared reach the UART
before returning from the ISR. This fix reads a non-destructive register
on the UART so the read transaction completion ensures the previously
queued write transaction has also completed.

PCI drivers have the new_id file in sysfs which allows new IDs to be added
at runtime. The advantage is to avoid re-compilation of a driver that
works for a new device, but it's ID table doesn't contain the new device.
This mechanism is only meant for testing, after the driver has been tested
successfully, the ID should be added in source code so that new revisions
of the kernel automatically detect the device.
The implementation follows the PCI implementation. The interface is documented
in Documentation/pcmcia/driver.txt. Computations should be done in userspace,
so the sysfs string contains the raw structure members for matching.

This was broken. It adds complexity, for no good reason. Rather than
separate __pa() and __pa_symbol(), we should deprecate __pa_symbol(),
and preferably __pa() too - and just use "virt_to_phys()" instead, which
is more readable and has nicer semantics.
However, right now, just undo the separation, and make __pa_symbol() be
the exact same as __pa(). That fixes the bugs this patch introduced,
and we can do the fairly obvious cleanups later.
Do the new __phys_addr() function (which is now the actual workhorse for
the unified __pa()/__pa_symbol()) as a real external function, that way
all the potential issues with compile/link-time optimizations of
constant symbol addresses go away, and we can also, if we choose to, add
more sanity-checking of the argument.

SBUS and PCI controllers anyways, so this was easy to cure.
2) The IMAP register has a different layout and some bits that we
need to preserve, so use a read/modify/write when making
changes to the IMAP register in generic code.
3) Flushing the entire IOMMU TLB is best done with a single write
to a register on this PCI controller, add a iommu->iommu_flushinv

The semantics defined by the InfiniBand specification say that
completion events are only generated when a completions is added to a
completion queue (CQ) after completion notification is requested. In
other words, this means that the following race is possible:
while (CQ is not empty)
ib_poll_cq(CQ);
// new completion is added after while loop is exited
ib_req_notify_cq(CQ);
// no event is generated for the existing completion
To close this race, the IB spec recommends doing another poll of the
CQ after requesting notification.
However, it is not always possible to arrange code this way (for
example, we have found that NAPI for IPoIB cannot poll after
requesting notification). Also, some hardware (eg Mellanox HCAs)
actually will generate an event for completions added before the call
to ib_req_notify_cq() -- which is allowed by the spec, since there's
no way for any upper-layer consumer to know exactly when a completion
was really added -- so the extra poll of the CQ is just a waste.
Motivated by this, we add a new flag "IB_CQ_REPORT_MISSED_EVENTS" for
ib_req_notify_cq() so that it can return a hint about whether the a
completion may have been added before the request for notification.
The return value of ib_req_notify_cq() is extended so:
< 0 means an error occurred while requesting notification
== 0 means notification was requested successfully, and if
IB_CQ_REPORT_MISSED_EVENTS was passed in, then no
events were missed and it is safe to wait for another
event.
> 0 is only returned if IB_CQ_REPORT_MISSED_EVENTS was
passed in. It means that the consumer must poll the
CQ again to make sure it is empty to avoid the race
described above.
We add a flag to enable this behavior rather than turning it on
unconditionally, because checking for missed events may incur
significant overhead for some low-level drivers, and consumers that
don't care about the results of this test shouldn't be forced to pay
for the test.

Add a num_comp_vectors member to struct ib_device and extend
ib_create_cq() to pass in a comp_vector parameter -- this parallels

num_comp_vectors to 1 and have all ULPs pass 0 for the comp_vector
value. Pass the value of num_comp_vectors to userspace rather than
hard-coding a value of 1.
We want multiple CQ event vector support (via MSI-X or similar for
adapters that can generate multiple interrupts), but it's not clear
how many vectors we want, or how we want to deal with policy issues
such as how to decide which vector to use or how to set up interrupt
affinity. This patch is useful for experimenting, since no core
changes will be necessary when updating a driver to support multiple
vectors, and we know that we want to make at least these changes

Acquiring a lock on a cluster filesystem may require communication with
remote hosts, and to avoid blocking lockd or nfsd threads during such
communication, we allow the results to be returned asynchronously.
When a ->lock() call needs to block, the file system will return
-EINPROGRESS, and then later return the results with a call to the
routine in the fl_grant field of the lock_manager_operations struct.
This differs from the case when ->lock returns -EAGAIN to a blocking
lock request; in that case, the filesystem calls fl_notify when the lock
is granted, and the caller retries the original lock. So while
fl_notify is merely a hint to the caller that it should retry, fl_grant
actually communicates the final result of the lock operation (with the
lock already acquired in the succesful case).
Therefore fl_grant takes a lock, a status and, for the test lock case, a
conflicting lock. We also allow fl_grant to return an error to the
filesystem, to handle the case where the fl_grant requests arrives after
the lock manager has already given up waiting for it.

Note that this hasn't been necessary until recently, because the few

However GFS (and, in the future, other cluster filesystems) need to implement
their own locking to get cluster-coherent locking, and also want to be able to

So we accomplish this by factoring out code such as this and exporting it for

Get rid of the 'pio_speed' member of 'ide_drive_t' that was only used by this
driver by storing the PIO mode timings in the 'drive_data' instead -- this
allows us to greatly simplify the process of "reloading" of the chip's timing
register and do it right in sl82c150_dma_off_quietly() and to get rid of two
extra arguments to config_for_pio() -- which got renamed to sl82c105_tune_pio()
and now returns a PIO mode selected, with ide_config_drive_speed() call moved
into the tuneproc() method, now called sl82c105_tune_drive() with the code to
set drive's 'io_32bit' and 'unmask' flags in its turn moved to its proper place
in the init_hwif() method.
Also, while at it, rename get_timing_sl82c105() into get_pio_timings() and get
rid of the code in it clamping cycle counts to 32 which was both incorrect and
never executed anyway...

__ioremap() took a set of page table flags (specifically the cacheable
and bufferable bits) to control the mapping type. However, with
the advent of ARMv6, this is far too limited.
Replace the page table flags with a memory type index, so that the
desired attributes can be selected from the mem_type table.
Finally, to prevent silent miscompilation due to the differing
arguments, rename the __ioremap() and __ioremap_pfn() functions.

During the INIT/COOKIE-ACK collision cases, it's possible to get
into a situation where the association id is not yet set at the time
of the user event generation. As a result, user events have an
association id set to 0 which will confuse applications.
This happens if we hit case B of duplicate cookie processing.
In the particular example found and provided by Oscar Isaula
<Oscar.Isaula@motorola.com>, flow looks like this:
A B
---- INIT-------> (lost)
<---------INIT------
---- INIT-ACK--->
<------ Cookie ECHO
When the Cookie Echo is received, we end up trying to update the
association that was created on A as a result of the (lost) INIT,
but that association doesn't have the ID set yet.

force byte accesses.
3) ipv6_addr_prefix() optimization :
Better to clear whole struct, as compiler can emit better code for

Currently the iop3xx platform support code assumes that RedBoot is the
bootloader and has already initialized the ATU. Linux should handle this
initialization for three reasons:
1/ The memory map that RedBoot sets up is not optimal (page_to_dma and
virt_to_phys return different addresses). The effect of this is that using
the dma mapping API for the internal bus dma units generates pci bus
addresses that are incorrect for the internal bus.
2/ Not all iop platforms use RedBoot
3/ If the ATU is already initialized it indicates that the iop is an add-in
card in another host, it does not own the PCI bus, and should not be
re-initialized.

account two pages at one in case an unaligned string transfer straddles a
page boundary.
Change the interface not to communicate guest addresses at all; instead use
a buffer page (mmaped by userspace) and do transfers there. The kernel
manages the virtual to physical translation and can perform the checks
atomically by taking the appropriate locks.

Allow a special signal mask to be used while executing in guest mode. This
allows signals to be used to interrupt a vcpu without requiring signal
delivery to a userspace handler, which is quite expensive. Userspace still
receives -EINTR and can get the signal via sigwait().

This is redundant, as we also return -EINTR from the ioctl, but it

Currently, userspace is told about the nature of the last exit from the
guest using two fields, exit_type and exit_reason, where exit_type has
just two enumerations (and no need for more). So fold exit_type into
exit_reason, reducing the complexity of determining what really happened.

KVM used to handle cpuid by letting userspace decide what values to
return to the guest. We now handle cpuid completely in the kernel. We
still let userspace decide which values the guest will see by having
userspace set up the value table beforehand (this is necessary to allow
management software to set the cpu features to the least common denominator,
so that live migration can work).
The motivation for the change is that kvm kernel code can be impacted by
cpuid features, for example the x86 emulator.

Currently when passing the a PIO emulation request to userspace, we
rely on userspace updating %rax (on 'in' instructions) and %rsi/%rdi/%rcx
(on string instructions). This (a) requires two extra ioctls for getting
and setting the registers and (b) is unfriendly to non-x86 archs, when
they get kvm ports.
So fix by doing the register fixups in the kernel and passing to userspace
only an abstract description of the PIO to be done.

Instead of passing a 'struct kvm_run' back and forth between the kernel and

arch_teardown_msi_irqs() is simply passed a pdev, attached to the pdev
is a list of msi_descs, it is up to the arch to free the irq associated
with each of these as appropriate.
For archs that _don't_ implement arch_teardown_msi_irqs(), all msi_descs

This patch introduces an optional function, arch_setup_msi_irqs(),
(note the plural) which gives an arch the opportunity to do per-device
setup for MSI/X and then allocate all the requested MSI/Xs at once.
If that's not required by the arch, the default version simply calls
arch_setup_msi_irq() for each MSI irq required.
arch_setup_msi_irqs() is passed a pdev, attached to the pdev is a list
of msi_descs with irq == 0, it is up to the arch to connect these up to
an irq (via set_irq_msi()) or return an error. For convenience the number
of vectors and the type are passed also.
All msi_descs with irq != 0 are considered allocated, and the arch
teardown routine will be called on them when necessary.
The existing semantics of pci_enable_msix() are that if the requested
number of irqs can not be allocated, the maximum number that _could_ be
allocated is returned. To support that, we define that in case of an
error from arch_setup_msi_irqs(), the number of msi_descs with irq != 0
are considered allocated, and are counted toward the "max that could be
allocated".

In situations where page table updates need only be made locally, and there is
no cross-processor A/D bit races involved, we need not use the heavyweight
xchg instruction to atomically fetch and clear page table entries. Instead,

This introduces a neat optimization for non-SMP kernels; drop the atomic xchg

When exiting from an address space, no special hypervisor notification of page
table updates needs to occur; direct page table hypervisors, such as Xen,
switch to another address space first (init_mm) and unprotects the page tables
to avoid the cost of trapping to the hypervisor for each pte_clear. Shadow
mode hypervisors, such as VMI and lhype don't need to do the extra work of
calling through paravirt-ops, and can just directly clear the page table
entries without notifiying the hypervisor, since all the page tables are about
to be freed.
So introduce native_pte_clear functions which bypass any paravirt-ops
notification. This results in a significant performance win for VMI and
removes some indirect calls from zap_pte_range.
Note the 3-level paging already had a native_pte_clear function, thus
demanding argument conformance and extra args for the 2-level definition.

The busy loop in this function would not be problematic if the

not seem to be the case under certain crash scenarios. Kdump uses an IPI
to stop the other CPUs in the event of a crash, but when any of the
other CPUs are locked-up inside the NMI handler the CPU that sends the
IPI will end up looping forever in the ICR check, effectively
hard-locking the whole system.
Quoting from Intel's "MultiProcessor Specification" (Version 1.4), B-3:
"A local APIC unit indicates successful dispatch of an IPI by
resetting the Delivery Status bit in the Interrupt Command
Register (ICR). The operating system polls the delivery status
bit after sending an INIT or STARTUP IPI until the command has
been dispatched.
A period of 20 microseconds should be sufficient for IPI dispatch
to complete under normal operating conditions. If the IPI is not
successfully dispatched, the operating system can abort the
command. Alternatively, the operating system can retry the IPI by
writing the lower 32-bit double word of the ICR. This “time-outâ€
mechanism can be implemented through an external interrupt, if
interrupts are enabled on the processor, or through execution of
an instruction or time-stamp counter spin loop."
Intel's documentation suggests the implementation of a time-out
mechanism, which, by the way, is already being open-coded in some parts

Applied fix by Andew Morton:
http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/4/8/88 - Fix `make headers_check'.
AMD and Intel x86 CPU manuals state that it is the responsibility of
system software to initialize and maintain MTRR consistency across
all processors in Multi-Processing Environments.
Quote from page 188 of the AMD64 System Programming manual (Volume 2):
7.6.5 MTRRs in Multi-Processing Environments
"In multi-processing environments, the MTRRs located in all processors must
characterize memory in the same way. Generally, this means that identical
values are written to the MTRRs used by the processors." (short omission here)
"Failure to do so may result in coherency violations or loss of atomicity.
Processor implementations do not check the MTRR settings in other processors
to ensure consistency. It is the responsibility of system software to
initialize and maintain MTRR consistency across all processors."
Current Linux MTRR code already implements the above in the case that the
BIOS does not properly initialize MTRRs on the secondary processors,
but the case where the fixed-range MTRRs of the boot processor are changed
after Linux started to boot, before the initialsation of a secondary
processor, is not handled yet.
In this case, secondary processors are currently initialized by Linux
with MTRRs which the boot processor had very early, when mtrr_bp_init()
did run, but not with the MTRRs which the boot processor uses at the
time when that secondary processors is actually booted,
causing differing MTRR contents on the secondary processors.
Such situation happens on Acer Ferrari 1000 and 5000 notebooks where the
BIOS enables and sets AMD-specific IORR bits in the fixed-range MTRRs
of the boot processor when it transitions the system into ACPI mode.
The SMI handler of the BIOS does this in SMM, entered while Linux ACPI
code runs acpi_enable().
Other occasions where the SMI handler of the BIOS may change bits in
the MTRRs could occur as well. To initialize newly booted secodary
processors with the fixed-range MTRRs which the boot processor uses
at that time, this patch saves the fixed-range MTRRs of the boot
processor before new secondary processors are started. When the
secondary processors run their Linux initialisation code, their
fixed-range MTRRs will be updated with the saved fixed-range MTRRs.
If CONFIG_MTRR is not set, we define mtrr_save_state
as an empty statement because there is nothing to do.
Possible TODOs:
*) CPU-hotplugging outside of SMP suspend/resume is not yet tested
with this patch.
*) If, even in this case, an AP never runs i386/do_boot_cpu or x86_64/cpu_up,
then the calls to mtrr_save_state() could be replaced by calls to
mtrr_save_fixed_ranges(NULL) and mtrr_save_state() would not be
needed.
That would need either verification of the CPU-hotplug code or
at least a test on a >2 CPU machine.
*) The MTRRs of other running processors are not yet checked at this
time but it might be interesting to syncronize the MTTRs of all
processors before booting. That would be an incremental patch,
but of rather low priority since there is no machine known so
far which would require this.

In this current implementation which is used in other patches,
mtrr_save_fixed_ranges() accepts a dummy void pointer because
in the current implementation of one of these patches, this

requires that this function takes a void pointer argument.
This function calls get_fixed_ranges(), passing mtrr_state.fixed_ranges
which is the element of the static struct which stores our current
backup of the fixed-range MTRR values which all CPUs shall be

Because mtrr_save_fixed_ranges calls get_fixed_ranges after
kernel initialisation time, __init needs to be removed from
the declaration of get_fixed_ranges().

This patch does a few small cleanups:
- use PER_CPU_NAME to generate the names of per-cpu variables
- use lea to add the per_cpu offset in PER_CPU(), because it doesn't
affect condition flags
- add PER_CPU_VAR which allows direct access to pre-cpu variables
with the %fs: prefix on SMP.

Currently x86 (similar to x84-64) has a special per-cpu structure
called "i386_pda" which can be easily and efficiently referenced via
the %fs register. An ELF section is more flexible than a structure,
allowing any piece of code to use this area. Indeed, such a section
already exists: the per-cpu area.
So this patch:
(1) Removes the PDA and uses per-cpu variables for each current member.
(2) Replaces the __KERNEL_PDA segment with __KERNEL_PERCPU.
(3) Creates a per-cpu mirror of __per_cpu_offset called this_cpu_off, which
can be used to calculate addresses for this CPU's variables.
(4) Simplifies startup, because %fs doesn't need to be loaded with a
special segment at early boot; it can be deferred until the first
percpu area is allocated (or never for UP).
The result is less code and one less x86-specific concept.

In shadow mode hypervisors, ptep_get_and_clear achieves the desired
purpose of keeping the shadows in sync by issuing a native_get_and_clear,
followed by a call to pte_update, which indicates the PTE has been
modified.
Direct mode hypervisors (Xen) have no need for this anyway, and will trap
the update using writable pagetables.
This means no hypervisor makes use of ptep_get_and_clear; there is no
reason to have it in the paravirt-ops structure. Change confusing
terminology about raw vs. native functions into consistent use of
native_pte_xxx for operations which do not invoke paravirt-ops.

Xen and VMI both have special requirements when mapping a highmem pte
page into the kernel address space. These can be dealt with by adding
a new kmap_atomic_pte() function for mapping highptes, and hooking it
into the paravirt_ops infrastructure.
Xen specifically wants to map the pte page RO, so this patch exposes a
helper function, kmap_atomic_prot, which maps the page with the
specified page protections.
This also adds a kmap_flush_unused() function to clear out the cached
kmap mappings. Xen needs this to clear out any potential stray RW
mappings of pages which will become part of a pagetable.

Implement the actual patching machinery. paravirt_patch_default()
contains the logic to automatically patch a callsite based on a few
simple rules:
- if the paravirt_op function is paravirt_nop, then patch nops
- if the paravirt_op function is a jmp target, then jmp to it
- if the paravirt_op function is callable and doesn't clobber too much
for the callsite, call it directly
paravirt_patch_default is suitable as a default implementation of
paravirt_ops.patch, will remove most of the expensive indirect calls
in favour of either a direct call or a pile of nops.
Backends may implement their own patcher, however. There are several
helper functions to help with this:
paravirt_patch_nop nop out a callsite
paravirt_patch_ignore leave the callsite as-is
paravirt_patch_call patch a call if the caller and callee
have compatible clobbers
paravirt_patch_jmp patch in a jmp
paravirt_patch_insns patch some literal instructions over
the callsite, if they fit
This patch also implements more direct patches for the native case, so
that when running on native hardware many common operations are
implemented inline.

Use patch type identifiers derived from the offset of the operation in
the paravirt_ops structure. This avoids having to maintain a separate
enum for patch site types.
Also, since the identifier is derived from the offset into
paravirt_ops, the offset can be derived from the identifier. This is
used to remove replicated information in the various callsite macros,
which has been a source of bugs in the past.
This patch also drops the fused save_fl+cli operation, which doesn't
really add much and makes things more complex - specifically because
it breaks the 1:1 relationship between identifiers and offsets. If
this operation turns out to be particularly beneficial, then the right

Add hooks to allow a paravirt implementation to track the lifetime of
an mm. Paravirtualization requires three hooks, but only two are
needed in common code. They are:
arch_dup_mmap, which is called when a new mmap is created at fork
arch_exit_mmap, which is called when the last process reference to an
mm is dropped, which typically happens on exit and exec.
The third hook is activate_mm, which is called from the arch-specific
activate_mm() macro/function, and so doesn't need stub versions for
other architectures. It's called when an mm is first used.

Normally when running in PAE mode, the 4th PMD maps the kernel address space,
which can be shared among all processes (since they all need the same kernel
mappings).
Xen, however, does not allow guests to have the kernel pmd shared between page
tables, so parameterize pgtable.c to allow both modes of operation.
There are several side-effects of this. One is that vmalloc will update the
kernel address space mappings, and those updates need to be propagated into
all processes if the kernel mappings are not intrinsically shared. In the
non-PAE case, this is done by maintaining a pgd_list of all processes; this
list is used when all process pagetables must be updated. pgd_list is
threaded via otherwise unused entries in the page structure for the pgd, which
means that the pgd must be page-sized for this to work.
Normally the PAE pgd is only 4x64 byte entries large, but Xen requires the PAE
pgd to page aligned anyway, so this patch forces the pgd to be page
aligned+sized when the kernel pmd is unshared, to accomodate both these
requirements.
Also, since there may be several distinct kernel pmds (if the user/kernel
split is below 3G), there's no point in allocating them from a slab cache;
they're just allocated with get_free_page and initialized appropriately. (Of
course the could be cached if there is just a single kernel pmd - which is the
default with a 3G user/kernel split - but it doesn't seem worthwhile to add
yet another case into this code).

Allocate a fixmap slot for use by a paravirt_ops implementation. This
is intended for early-boot bootstrap mappings. Once the zones and
allocator have been set up, it would be better to use get_vm_area() to
allocate some virtual space.
Xen uses this to map the hypervisor's shared info page, which doesn't
have a pseudo-physical page number, and therefore can't be mapped
ordinarily. It is needed early because it contains the vcpu state,
including the interrupt mask.

This patch introduces paravirt_ops hooks to control how the kernel's
initial pagetable is set up.
In the case of a native boot, the very early bootstrap code creates a
simple non-PAE pagetable to map the kernel and physical memory. When
the VM subsystem is initialized, it creates a proper pagetable which
respects the PAE mode, large pages, etc.
When booting under a hypervisor, there are many possibilities for what
paging environment the hypervisor establishes for the guest kernel, so
the constructon of the kernel's pagetable depends on the hypervisor.
In the case of Xen, the hypervisor boots the kernel with a fully
constructed pagetable, which is already using PAE if necessary. Also,
Xen requires particular care when constructing pagetables to make sure
all pagetables are always mapped read-only.
In order to make this easier, kernel's initial pagetable construction
has been changed to only allocate and initialize a pagetable page if
there's no page already present in the pagetable. This allows the Xen
paravirt backend to make a copy of the hypervisor-provided pagetable,
allowing the kernel to establish any more mappings it needs while
keeping the existing ones.
A slightly subtle point which is worth highlighting here is that Xen
requires all kernel mappings to share the same pte_t pages between all
pagetables, so that updating a kernel page's mapping in one pagetable
is reflected in all other pagetables. This makes it possible to
allocate a page and attach it to a pagetable without having to
explicitly enumerate that page's mapping in all pagetables.
And:
+From: "Eric W. Biederman" <ebiederm@xmission.com>
If we don't set the leaf page table entries it is quite possible that
will inherit and incorrect page table entry from the initial boot
page table setup in head.S. So we need to redo the effort here,
so we pick up PSE, PGE and the like.
Hypervisors like Xen require that their page tables be read-only,
which is slightly incompatible with our low identity mappings, however
I discussed this with Jeremy he has modified the Xen early set_pte
function to avoid problems in this area.

Some versions of libc can't deal with a VDSO which doesn't have its
ELF headers matching its mapped address. COMPAT_VDSO maps the VDSO at
a specific system-wide fixed address. Previously this was all done at
build time, on the grounds that the fixed VDSO address is always at
the top of the address space. However, a hypervisor may reserve some
of that address space, pushing the fixmap address down.
This patch does the adjustment dynamically at runtime, depending on
the runtime location of the VDSO fixmap.

On x86-64, kernel memory freed after init can be entirely unmapped instead
of just getting 'poisoned' by overwriting with a debug pattern.
On i386 and x86-64 (under CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA), kernel text and bug table
can also be write-protected.
Compared to the first version, this one prevents re-creating deleted
mappings in the kernel image range on x86-64, if those got removed
previously. This, together with the original changes, prevents temporarily
having inconsistent mappings when cacheability attributes are being
changed on such pages (e.g. from AGP code). While on i386 such duplicate
mappings don't exist, the same change is done there, too, both for
consistency and because checking pte_present() before using various other
pte_XXX functions is a requirement anyway. At once, i386 code gets
adjusted to use pte_huge() instead of open coding this.

Now we are no longer dynamically allocating the GDT, we don't need the
"cpu_gdt_table" at all: we can switch straight from "boot_gdt_table" to the
per-cpu GDT. This means initializing the cpu_gdt array in C.
The boot CPU uses the per-cpu var directly, then in smp_prepare_cpus() it
switches to the per-cpu copy just allocated. For secondary CPUs, the
early_gdt_descr is set to point directly to their per-cpu copy.
For UP the code is very simple: it keeps using the "per-cpu" GDT as per SMP,
but we never have to move.

Allocating PDA and GDT at boot is a pain. Using simple per-cpu variables adds
happiness (although we need the GDT page-aligned for Xen, which we do in a
followup patch).

The specific case I am encountering is kdump under Xen with a 64 bit
hypervisor and 32 bit kernel/userspace. The dump created is 64 bit due to
the hypervisor but the dump kernel is 32 bit for maximum compatibility.
It's possibly less likely to be useful in a purely native scenario but I
see no reason to disallow it.

Whenever we schedule, __switch_to calls load_esp0 which does:
tss->esp0 = thread->esp0;
This is never initialized for the initial thread (ie "swapper"), so when we're
scheduling that, we end up setting esp0 to 0. This is fine: the swapper never
leaves ring 0, so this field is never used.
lguest, however, gets upset that we're trying to used an unmapped page as our
kernel stack. Rather than work around it there, let's initialize it.

Extends the numa=fake x86_64 command-line option to allow for configurable
node sizes. These nodes can be used in conjunction with cpusets for coarse
memory resource management.
The old command-line option is still supported:
numa=fake=32 gives 32 fake NUMA nodes, ignoring the NUMA setup of the
actual machine.
But now you may configure your system for the node sizes of your choice:
numa=fake=2*512,1024,2*256
gives two 512M nodes, one 1024M node, two 256M nodes, and
the rest of system memory to a sixth node.
The existing hash function is maintained to support the various node sizes
that are possible with this implementation.
Each node of the same size receives roughly the same amount of available
pages, regardless of any reserved memory with its address range. The total
available pages on the system is calculated and divided by the number of equal
nodes to allocate. These nodes are then dynamically allocated and their
borders extended until such time as their number of available pages reaches
the required size.
Configurable node sizes are recommended when used in conjunction with cpusets
for memory control because it eliminates the overhead associated with scanning
the zonelists of many smaller full nodes on page_alloc().

This is then displayed the first time mark_tsc_unstable is called.

Enable system hashtable memory to be distributed among nodes on x86_64 NUMA
Forcing the kernel to use node interleaved vmalloc instead of bootmem for
the system hashtable memory (alloc_large_system_hash) reduces the memory
imbalance on node 0 by around 40MB on a 8 node x86_64 NUMA box:
Before the following patch, on bootup of a 8 node box:
Node 0 MemTotal: 3407488 kB
Node 0 MemFree: 3206296 kB
Node 0 MemUsed: 201192 kB
Node 0 Active: 7012 kB
Node 0 Inactive: 512 kB
Node 0 Dirty: 0 kB
Node 0 Writeback: 0 kB

Node 0 Bounce: 0 kB
Node 0 Slab: 5408 kB
Node 0 SReclaimable: 644 kB
Node 0 SUnreclaim: 4764 kB
After the patch (or using hashdist=1 on the kernel command line):
Node 0 MemTotal: 3407488 kB
Node 0 MemFree: 3247608 kB
Node 0 MemUsed: 159880 kB
Node 0 Active: 3012 kB
Node 0 Inactive: 616 kB

Node 0 Bounce: 0 kB
Node 0 Slab: 6304 kB
Node 0 SReclaimable: 1596 kB
Node 0 SUnreclaim: 4708 kB
I guess it is a good idea to keep HASHDIST_DEFAULT "on" for x86_64 NUMA
since x86_64 has no dearth of vmalloc space? Or maybe enable hash
distribution for all 64bit NUMA arches? The following patch does it only
for x86_64.
I ran a HPC MPI benchmark -- 'Ansys wingsolid', which takes up quite a bit of
memory and uses up tlb entries. This was on a 4 way, 2 socket
Tyan AMD box (non vsmp), with 8G total memory (4G pernode).

1. Vanilla - runtime of 1188.000s
2. With hashdist=1 runtime of 1154.000s

o X86_64 kernel should run from 2MB aligned address for two reasons.
- Performance.
- For relocatable kernels, page tables are updated based on difference
between compile time address and load time physical address.
This difference should be multiple of 2MB as kernel text and data
is mapped using 2MB pages and PMD should be pointing to a 2MB
aligned address. Life is simpler if both compile time and load time
kernel addresses are 2MB aligned.
o Flag the error at compile time if one is trying to build a kernel which
does not meet alignment restrictions.

This patch modifies the x86_64 kernel so that it can be loaded and run
at any 2M aligned address, below 512G. The technique used is to
compile the decompressor with -fPIC and modify it so the decompressor
is fully relocatable. For the main kernel the page tables are
modified so the kernel remains at the same virtual address. In
addition a variable phys_base is kept that holds the physical address
the kernel is loaded at. __pa_symbol is modified to add that when
we take the address of a kernel symbol.
When loaded with a normal bootloader the decompressor will decompress
the kernel to 2M and it will run there. This both ensures the
relocation code is always working, and makes it easier to use 2M
pages for the kernel and the cpu.

Currently __pa_symbol is for use with symbols in the kernel address
map and __pa is for use with pointers into the physical memory map.
But the code is implemented so you can usually interchange the two.
__pa which is much more common can be implemented much more cheaply
if it is it doesn't have to worry about any other kernel address
spaces. This is especially true with a relocatable kernel as
__pa_symbol needs to peform an extra variable read to resolve
the address.
There is a third macro that is added for the vsyscall data
__pa_vsymbol for finding the physical addesses of vsyscall pages.
Most of this patch is simply sorting through the references to
__pa or __pa_symbol and using the proper one. A little of
it is continuing to use a physical address when we have it
instead of recalculating it several times.
swapper_pgd is now NULL. leave_mm now uses init_mm.pgd
and init_mm.pgd is initialized at boot (instead of compile time)
to the physmem virtual mapping of init_level4_pgd. The
physical address changed.
Except for the for EMPTY_ZERO page all of the remaining references
to __pa_symbol appear to be during kernel initialization. So this
should reduce the cost of __pa in the common case, even on a relocated
kernel.
As this is technically a semantic change we need to be on the lookout
for anything I missed. But it works for me (tm).

With the rewrite of the SMP trampoline and the early page
allocator there is nothing that needs identity mapped pages,
once we start executing C code.
So add zap_identity_mappings into head64.c and remove
zap_low_mappings() from much later in the code. The functions
are subtly different thus the name change.
This also kills boot_level4_pgt which was from an earlier
attempt to move the identity mappings as early as possible,
and is now no longer needed. Essentially I have replaced
boot_level4_pgt with trampoline_level4_pgt in trampoline.S

Move __KERNEL32_CS up into the unused gdt entry. __KERNEL32_CS is
used when entering the kernel so putting it first is useful when
trying to keep boot gdt sizes to a minimum.
Set the accessed bit on all gdt entries. We don't care
so there is no need for the cpu to burn the extra cycles,
and it potentially allows the pages to be immutable. Plus
it is confusing when debugging and your gdt entries mysteriously
change.

This patch makes pgtable.h and page.h safe to include

symbolic constants instead of hard coded numbers when

This patch copies asm-sparc64/const.h to asm-x86_64 to
get a definition of _AC() a very convinient macro that
allows us to force the type when we are compiling the
code in C and to drop all of the type information when
we are using the constant in assembly. Previously this
was done with multiple definition of the same constant.
const.h was modified slightly so that it works when given
CONFIG options as arguments.
This patch adds #ifndef __ASSEMBLY__ ... #endif
and _AC(1,UL) where appropriate so the assembler won't
choke on the header files. Otherwise nothing
should have changed.
