Sonny Rao 79c3095fb3 powerpc: Export memstart_addr and kernstart_addr on ppc64
Some modules (like eHCA) want to map all of kernel memory, for this to
work with a relocated kernel, we need to export kernstart_addr so
modules can use PHYSICAL_START and memstart_addr so they could use
MEMORY_START.  Note that the 32bit code already exports these symbols.

Benjamin Herrenschmidt cd3db0c4ca memblock: Remove rmo_size, burry it in arch/powerpc where it belongs
The RMA (RMO is a misnomer) is a concept specific to ppc64 (in fact
server ppc64 though I hijack it on embedded ppc64 for similar purposes)
and represents the area of memory that can be accessed in real mode
(aka with MMU off), or on embedded, from the exception vectors (which
is bolted in the TLB) which pretty much boils down to the same thing.

We take that out of the generic MEMBLOCK data structure and move it into
arch/powerpc where it belongs, renaming it to "RMA" while at it.

Mark Nelson 91eea67c6d powerpc/mm: Track backing pages allocated by vmemmap_populate()
We need to keep track of the backing pages that get allocated by
vmemmap_populate() so that when we use kdump, the dump-capture kernel knows
where these pages are.

We use a simple linked list of structures that contain the physical address
of the backing page and corresponding virtual address to track the backing
pages.
To save space, we just use a pointer to the next struct vmemmap_backing. We
can also do this because we never remove nodes.  We call the pointer "list"
to be compatible with changes made to the crash utility.

vmemmap_populate() is called either at boot-time or on a memory hotplug
operation. We don't have to worry about the boot-time calls because they
will be inherently single-threaded, and for a memory hotplug operation
vmemmap_populate() is called through:
sparse_add_one_section()
            |
            V
kmalloc_section_memmap()
            |
            V
sparse_mem_map_populate()
            |
            V
vmemmap_populate()
and in sparse_add_one_section() we're protected by pgdat_resize_lock().
So, we don't need a spinlock to protect the vmemmap_list.

We allocate space for the vmemmap_backing structs by allocating whole pages
in vmemmap_list_alloc() and then handing out chunks of this to
vmemmap_list_populate().

This means that we waste at most just under one page, but this keeps the code
is simple.

Tejun Heo 5a0e3ad6af include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
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.

David Gibson a4fe3ce769 powerpc/mm: Allow more flexible layouts for hugepage pagetables
Currently each available hugepage size uses a slightly different
pagetable layout: that is, the bottem level table of pointers to
hugepages is a different size, and may branch off from the normal page
tables at a different level.  Every hugepage aware path that needs to
walk the pagetables must therefore look up the hugepage size from the
slice info first, and work out the correct way to walk the pagetables
accordingly.  Future hardware is likely to add more possible hugepage
sizes, more layout options and more mess.

This patch, therefore reworks the handling of hugepage pagetables to
reduce this complexity.  In the new scheme, instead of having to
consult the slice mask, pagetable walking code can check a flag in the
PGD/PUD/PMD entries to see where to branch off to hugepage pagetables,
and the entry also contains the information (eseentially hugepage
shift) necessary to then interpret that table without recourse to the
slice mask.  This scheme can be extended neatly to handle multiple
levels of self-describing "special" hugepage pagetables, although for
now we assume only one level exists.

This approach means that only the pagetable allocation path needs to
know how the pagetables should be set out.  All other (hugepage)
pagetable walking paths can just interpret the structure as they go.

There already was a flag bit in PGD/PUD/PMD entries for hugepage
directory pointers, but it was only used for debug.  We alter that
flag bit to instead be a 0 in the MSB to indicate a hugepage pagetable
pointer (normally it would be 1 since the pointer lies in the linear
mapping).  This means that asm pagetable walking can test for (and
punt on) hugepage pointers with the same test that checks for
unpopulated page directory entries (beq becomes bge), since hugepage
pointers will always be positive, and normal pointers always negative.

While we're at it, we get rid of the confusing (and grep defeating)
#defining of hugepte_shift to be the same thing as mmu_huge_psizes.

David Gibson a0668cdc15 powerpc/mm: Cleanup management of kmem_caches for pagetables
Currently we have a fair bit of rather fiddly code to manage the
various kmem_caches used to store page tables of various levels.  We
generally have two caches holding some combination of PGD, PUD and PMD
tables, plus several more for the special hugepage pagetables.

This patch cleans this all up by taking a different approach.  Rather
than the caches being designated as for PUDs or for hugeptes for 16M
pages, the caches are simply allocated to be a specific size.  Thus
sharing of caches between different types/levels of pagetables happens
naturally.  The pagetable size, where needed, is passed around encoded
in the same way as {PGD,PUD,PMD}_INDEX_SIZE; that is n where the
pagetable contains 2^n pointers.

KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki 3089aa1b0c kcore: use registerd physmem information
For /proc/kcore, each arch registers its memory range by kclist_add().
In usual,

	- range of physical memory
	- range of vmalloc area
	- text, etc...

are registered but "range of physical memory" has some troubles.  It
doesn't updated at memory hotplug and it tend to include unnecessary
memory holes.  Now, /proc/iomem (kernel/resource.c) includes required
physical memory range information and it's properly updated at memory
hotplug.  Then, it's good to avoid using its own code(duplicating
information) and to rebuild kclist for physical memory based on
/proc/iomem.

Benjamin Herrenschmidt bc033b63bb powerpc/mm: Fix attribute confusion with htab_bolt_mapping()
The function htab_bolt_mapping() is used to create permanent
mappings in the MMU hash table, for example, in order to create
the linear mapping of vmemmap.  It's also used by early boot
ioremap (before mem_init_done).

However, the way ioremap uses it is incorrect as it passes it the
protection flags in the "linux PTE" form while htab_bolt_mapping()
expects them in the hash table format.  This is made more confusing by
the fact that some of those flags are actually in the same position in
both cases.

This fixes it all by making htab_bolt_mapping() take normal linux
protection flags instead, and use a little helper to convert them to
htab flags. Callers can now use the usual PAGE_* definitions safely.

Jon Tollefson 0d9ea75443 powerpc: support multiple hugepage sizes
Instead of using the variable mmu_huge_psize to keep track of the huge
page size we use an array of MMU_PAGE_* values.  For each supported huge
page size we need to know the hugepte_shift value and have a
pgtable_cache.  The hstate or an mmu_huge_psizes index is passed to
functions so that they know which huge page size they should use.

The hugepage sizes 16M and 64K are setup(if available on the hardware) so
that they don't have to be set on the boot cmd line in order to use them.
The number of 16G pages have to be specified at boot-time though (e.g.
hugepagesz=16G hugepages=5).

Benjamin Herrenschmidt cec08e7a94 [POWERPC] vmemmap fixes to use smaller pages
This changes vmemmap to use a different region (region 0xf) of the
address space, and to configure the page size of that region
dynamically at boot.

The problem with the current approach of always using 16M pages is that
it's not well suited to machines that have small amounts of memory such
as small partitions on pseries, or PS3's.

In fact, on the PS3, failure to allocate the 16M page backing vmmemmap
tends to prevent hotplugging the HV's "additional" memory, thus limiting
the available memory even more, from my experience down to something
like 80M total, which makes it really not very useable.

The logic used by my match to choose the vmemmap page size is:

 - If 16M pages are available and there's 1G or more RAM at boot,
   use that size.
 - Else if 64K pages are available, use that
 - Else use 4K pages

I've tested on a POWER6 (16M pages) and on an iSeries POWER3 (4K pages)
and it seems to work fine.

Note that I intend to change the way we organize the kernel regions &
SLBs so the actual region will change from 0xf back to something else at
one point, as I simplify the SLB miss handler, but that will be for a
later patch.

Kumar Gala 37dd2badcf [POWERPC] 85xx: Add support for relocatable kernel (and booting at non-zero)
Added support to allow an 85xx kernel to be run from a non-zero physical
address (useful for cooperative asymmetric multiprocessing situations and
kdump).  The support can be configured at compile time by setting
CONFIG_PAGE_OFFSET, CONFIG_KERNEL_START, and CONFIG_PHYSICAL_START as
desired.

Alternatively, the kernel build can set CONFIG_RELOCATABLE.  Setting this
config option causes the kernel to determine at runtime the physical
addresses of CONFIG_PAGE_OFFSET and CONFIG_KERNEL_START.  If
CONFIG_RELOCATABLE is set, then CONFIG_PHYSICAL_START has no meaning.
However, CONFIG_PHYSICAL_START will always be used to set the LOAD program
header physical address field in the resulting ELF image.

Currently we are limited to running at a physical address that is a
multiple of 256M.  This is due to how we map TLBs to cover
lowmem.  This should be fixed to allow 64M or maybe even 16M alignment
in the future.  It is considered an error to try and run a kernel at a
non-aligned physical address.

All the magic for this support is accomplished by proper initialization
of the kernel memory subsystem and use of ARCH_PFN_OFFSET.

The use of ARCH_PFN_OFFSET only affects normal memory and not IO mappings.
ioremap uses map_page and isn't affected by ARCH_PFN_OFFSET.

/dev/mem continues to allow access to any physical address in the system
regardless of how CONFIG_PHYSICAL_START is set.

address that low memory ends at.  If the start of memory is at 0 it
happens that total_lowmem can be used as both the size and the address

To make the code a bit more clear and deal with the case when the start of
memory isn't at physical 0, we introduce lowmem_end_addr that represents
one byte beyond the last physical address in the lowmem region.

Christoph Lameter 4ba9b9d0ba Slab API: remove useless ctor parameter and reorder parameters
Slab constructors currently have a flags parameter that is never used.  And
the order of the arguments is opposite to other slab functions.  The object
pointer is placed before the kmem_cache pointer.

Convert

        ctor(void *object, struct kmem_cache *s, unsigned long flags)

to

        ctor(struct kmem_cache *s, void *object)

throughout the kernel

Paul Mundt 20c2df83d2 mm: Remove slab destructors from kmem_cache_create().
Slab destructors were no longer supported after Christoph's
c59def9f22 change. They've been
BUGs for both slab and slub, and slob never supported them
either.

This rips out support for the dtor pointer from kmem_cache_create()
completely and fixes up every single callsite in the kernel (there were
about 224, not including the slab allocator definitions themselves,
or the documentation references).

Hugh Dickins 517e22638c [POWERPC] Don't use SLAB/SLUB for PTE pages
The SLUB allocator relies on struct page fields first_page and slab,
overwritten by ptl when SPLIT_PTLOCK: so the SLUB allocator cannot then
be used for the lowest level of pagetable pages.  This was obstructing
SLUB on PowerPC, which uses kmem_caches for its pagetables.  So convert
its pte level to use normal gfp pages (whereas pmd, pud and 64k-page pgd
want partpages, so continue to use kmem_caches for pmd, pud and pgd).

Christoph Lameter 5af6083990 slab allocators: Remove obsolete SLAB_MUST_HWCACHE_ALIGN
This patch was recently posted to lkml and acked by Pekka.

The flag SLAB_MUST_HWCACHE_ALIGN is

1. Never checked by SLAB at all.

2. A duplicate of SLAB_HWCACHE_ALIGN for SLUB

3. Fulfills the role of SLAB_HWCACHE_ALIGN for SLOB.

The only remaining use is in sparc64 and ppc64 and their use there
reflects some earlier role that the slab flag once may have had. If
its specified then SLAB_HWCACHE_ALIGN is also specified.

The flag is confusing, inconsistent and has no purpose.

Remove it.

David Gibson f10a04c034 [PATCH] powerpc: Fix pagetable bloat for hugepages
At present, ARCH=powerpc kernels can waste considerable space in
pagetables when making large hugepage mappings.  Hugepage PTEs go in
PMD pages, but each PMD page maps 256M and so contains only 16
hugepage PTEs (128 bytes of data), but takes up a 1024 byte
allocation.  With CONFIG_PPC_64K_PAGES enabled (64k base page size),
the situation is worse.  Now hugepage PTEs are at the PTE page level
(also mapping 256M), so we store 16 hugepage PTEs in a 64k allocation.

The PowerPC MMU already means that any 256M region is either all
hugepage, or all normal pages.  Thus, with some care, we can use a
different allocation for the hugepage PTE tables and only allocate the
128 bytes necessary.
