Becky Bruce 1f6820b4c1 powerpc: Define/use HUGETLB_NEED_PRELOAD insead of complicated #if
Define HUGETLB_NEED_PRELOAD in mmu-book3e.h for CONFIG_PPC64 instead
of having a much more complicated #if block.  This is easier to read
and maintain.

Becky Bruce d93e4d7d72 powerpc/book3e: Change hugetlb preload to take vma argument
This avoids an extra find_vma() and is less error-prone.

Becky Bruce a6146888be powerpc: Add gpages reservation code for 64-bit FSL BOOKE
For 64-bit FSL_BOOKE implementations, gigantic pages need to be
reserved at boot time by the memblock code based on the command line.
This adds the call that handles the reservation, and fixes some code
comments.

It also removes the previous pr_err when reserve_hugetlb_gpages
is called on a system without hugetlb enabled - the way the code is
structured, the call is unconditional and the resulting error message
spurious and confusing.

Becky Bruce 881fde1db5 powerpc: hugetlb: modify include usage for FSL BookE code
The original 32-bit hugetlb implementation used PPC64 vs PPC32 to
determine which code path to take.  However, the final hugetlb
implementation for 64-bit FSL ended up shared with the FSL
32-bit code so the actual check needs to be FSL_BOOK3E vs
everything else.  This patch changes the include protections to
reflect this.

There are also a couple of related comment fixes.

Becky Bruce 97632e6fbe powerpc: hugetlb: fix huge_ptep_set_access_flags return value
There was an unconditional return of "1" in the original code
from David Gibson, and I dropped it because it wasn't needed
for FSL BOOKE 32-bit.  However, not all systems (including 64-bit
FSL BOOKE) do loading of the hpte from the fault handler asm
and depend on this function returning 1, which causes a call
to update_mmu_cache() that writes an entry into the tlb.

Becky Bruce 41151e77a4 powerpc: Hugetlb for BookE
Enable hugepages on Freescale BookE processors.  This allows the kernel to
use huge TLB entries to map pages, which can greatly reduce the number of
TLB misses and the amount of TLB thrashing experienced by applications with
large memory footprints.  Care should be taken when using this on FSL
processors, as the number of large TLB entries supported by the core is low
(16-64) on current processors.

The supported set of hugepage sizes include 4m, 16m, 64m, 256m, and 1g.
Page sizes larger than the max zone size are called "gigantic" pages and
must be allocated on the command line (and cannot be deallocated).

This is currently only fully implemented for Freescale 32-bit BookE
processors, but there is some infrastructure in the code for
64-bit BooKE.

David Gibson 0895ecda79 powerpc/mm: Bring hugepage PTE accessor functions back into sync with normal accessors
The hugepage arch code provides a number of hook functions/macros
which mirror the functionality of various normal page pte access
functions.  Various changes in the normal page accessors (in
particular BenH's recent changes to the handling of lazy icache
flushing and PAGE_EXEC) have caused the hugepage versions to get out
of sync with the originals.  In some cases, this is a bug, at least on
some MMU types.

One of the reasons that some hooks were not identical to the normal
page versions, is that the fact we're dealing with a hugepage needed
to be passed down do use the correct dcache-icache flush function.
This patch makes the main flush_dcache_icache_page() function hugepage
aware (by checking for the PageCompound flag).  That in turn means we
can make set_huge_pte_at() just a call to set_pte_at() bringing it
back into sync.  As a bonus, this lets us remove the
hash_huge_page_do_lazy_icache() function, replacing it with a call to
the hash_page_do_lazy_icache() function it was based on.

Some other hugepage pte access hooks - huge_ptep_get_and_clear() and
huge_ptep_clear_flush() - are not so easily unified, but this patch at
least brings them back into sync with the current versions of the
corresponding normal page functions.

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.

Mel Gorman 3340289ddf mm: report the MMU pagesize in /proc/pid/smaps
The KernelPageSize entry in /proc/pid/smaps is the pagesize used by the
kernel to back a VMA.  This matches the size used by the MMU in the
majority of cases.  However, one counter-example occurs on PPC64 kernels
whereby a kernel using 64K as a base pagesize may still use 4K pages for
the MMU on older processor.  To distinguish, this patch reports
MMUPageSize as the pagesize used by the MMU in /proc/pid/smaps.

one was outside the arch code and it is a driver only built for powerpc.
