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.

Commit 9617729941 ("Drop free_pages()")
modified nr_free_pages() to return 'unsigned long' instead of 'unsigned
int'. This made the casts to 'unsigned long' in most callers superfluous,
so remove them.

The current assumption of the memory code is that the first RAM PFN in
the system is 0.
Adjust the relevant code to play well with setups where memory starts
at higher addresses, indicated by PLATFORM_DEFAULT_MEM_START.
The new memory model looks like this:
+----------+--+----------------------+----------------+
| | | | |
| | | RAM | |
| | | | |
+----------+--+----------------------+----------------+
| | | | |
+- PFN 0 | +- min_low_pfn +- max_low_pfn +- max_pfn
|
+- ARCH_PFN_OFFSET
+- PLATFORM_DEFAULT_MEM_START >> PAGE_SIZE
The memory map contains pages starting from pfn ARCH_PFN_OFFSET up to
max_low_pfn. The only zone used right now will span exactly the same
region.
Usually, ARCH_PFN_OFFSET and min_low_pfn are the same value. Handle
them separately for robustness. Gapping pages will be in the memory
map but marked as reserved and won't be touched.

If min_low_pfn is non-zero, the bitmap reserved for bootmem is bigger
than needed. The number of pages bootmem has to maintain is the range
from min_low_pfn to max_low_pfn.
For now it has only been a theoretical mistake, min_low_pfn was always
zero.

The second argument to init_bootmem_node() is the PFN to place the
bootmem bitmap at and the third argument is the first PFN on the node.
This is currently backwards but never made any problems as both values
were always zero.

Remove arch-specific show_mem() in favor of the generic version.
This also removes the following redundant information display:
- free pages, printed by show_free_areas()
- pages in swapcache, printed by show_swap_cache_info()
where show_mem() calls show_free_areas(), which calls
show_swap_cache_info().

Kmem cache passed to constructor is only needed for constructors that are
themselves multiplexeres. Nobody uses this "feature", nor does anybody uses
passed kmem cache in non-trivial way, so pass only pointer to object.
Non-trivial places are:
arch/powerpc/mm/init_64.c
arch/powerpc/mm/hugetlbpage.c
This is flag day, yes.

Add support for processors that have cache-aliasing issues, such as
the Stretch S5000 processor. Cache-aliasing means that the size of
the cache (for one way) is larger than the page size, thus, a page
can end up in several places in cache depending on the virtual to
physical translation. The method used here is to map a user page
temporarily through the auto-refill way 0 and of of the DTLB.
We probably will want to revisit this issue and use a better
approach with kmap/kunmap.

set_page_count usage outside mm/ is limited to setting the refcount to 1.
Remove set_page_count from outside mm/, and replace those users with
init_page_count() and set_page_refcounted().
This allows more debug checking, and tighter control on how code is allowed
to play around with page->_count.
