The memcg code can trap tasks in the context of the failing allocation
until an OOM situation is resolved. They can hold all kinds of locks
(fs, mm) at this point, which makes it prone to deadlocking.
This series converts memcg OOM handling into a two step process that is
started in the charge context, but any waiting is done after the fault
stack is fully unwound.
Patches 1-4 prepare architecture handlers to support the new memcg
requirements, but in doing so they also remove old cruft and unify
out-of-memory behavior across architectures.
Patch 5 disables the memcg OOM handling for syscalls, readahead, kernel
faults, because they can gracefully unwind the stack with -ENOMEM. OOM
handling is restricted to user triggered faults that have no other
option.
Patch 6 reworks memcg's hierarchical OOM locking to make it a little
more obvious wth is going on in there: reduce locked regions, rename
locking functions, reorder and document.
Patch 7 implements the two-part OOM handling such that tasks are never
trapped with the full charge stack in an OOM situation.
This patch:
Back before smart OOM killing, when faulting tasks were killed directly on
allocation failures, the arch-specific fault handlers needed special
protection for the init process.
Now that all fault handlers call into the generic OOM killer (see commit
609838cfed97: "mm: invoke oom-killer from remaining unconverted page
fault handlers"), which already provides init protection, the
arch-specific leftovers can be removed.

This helps remove asid-to-mm reverse map
While mm->context.id contains the ASID assigned to a process, our ASID
allocator also used asid_mm_map[] reverse map. In a new allocation
cycle (mm->ASID >= @asid_cache), the Round Robin ASID allocator used this
to check if new @asid_cache belonged to some mm2 (from prev cycle).
If so, it could locate that mm using the ASID reverse map, and mark that
mm as unallocated ASID, to force it to refresh at the time of switch_mm()
However, for SMP, the reverse map has to be maintained per CPU, so
becomes 2 dimensional, hence got rid of it.
With reverse map gone, it is NOT possible to reach out to current
assignee. So we track the ASID allocation generation/cycle and
on every switch_mm(), check if the current generation of CPU ASID is
same as mm's ASID; If not it is refreshed.
(Based loosely on arch/sh implementation)

ASID allocation changes/1
This patch does 2 things:
(1) get_new_mmu_context() NOW moves mm->ASID to a new value ONLY if it
was from a prev allocation cycle/generation OR if mm had no ASID
allocated (vs. before would unconditionally moving to a new ASID)
Callers desiring unconditional update of ASID, e.g.local_flush_tlb_mm()
(for parent's address space invalidation at fork) need to first force
the parent to an unallocated ASID.
(2) get_new_mmu_context() always sets the MMU PID reg with unchanged/new
ASID value.
The gains are:
- consolidation of all asid alloc logic into get_new_mmu_context()
- avoiding code duplication in switch_mm() for PID reg setting
- Enables future change to fold activate_mm() into switch_mm()

With previous commit freeing up PTE bits, reassign them so as to:

The current ARC VM code has 13 flags in Page Table entry: some software
(accesed/dirty/non-linear-maps) and rest hardware specific. With 8k MMU
page, we need 19 bits for addressing page frame so remaining 13 bits is
just about enough to accomodate the current flags.
In MMUv4 there are 2 additional flags, SZ (normal or super page) and WT
(cache access mode write-thru) - and additionally PFN is 20 bits (vs. 19
before for 8k). Thus these can't be held in current PTE w/o making each
entry 64bit wide.
It seems there is some scope of compressing the current PTE flags (and
freeing up a few bits). Currently PTE contains fully orthogonal distinct
access permissions for kernel and user mode (Kr, Kw, Kx; Ur, Uw, Ux)
which can be folded into one set (R, W, X). The translation of 3 PTE
bits into 6 TLB bits (when programming the MMU) can be done based on
following pre-requites/assumptions:
1. For kernel-mode-only translations (vmalloc: 0x7000_0000 to
0x7FFF_FFFF), PTE additionally has PAGE_GLOBAL flag set (and user
space entries can never be global). Thus such a PTE can translate
to Kr, Kw, Kx (as appropriate) and zero for User mode counterparts.
2. For non global entries, the PTE flags can be used to create mirrored
K and U TLB bits. This is true after commit a950549c67
"ARC: copy_(to|from)_user() to honor usermode-access permissions"
which ensured that user-space translations _MUST_ have same access
permissions for both U/K mode accesses so that copy_{to,from}_user()
play fair with fault based CoW break and such...

After the recent cleanups, all the exception handlers now have same
boilerplate prologue code. Move that into common macro.
This reduces readability but helps greatly with sharing / duplicating
entry code with ARCv2 ISA where the handlers are pretty much the same,
just the entry prologue is different (due to hardware assist).
Also while at it, add the missing FAKE_RET_FROM_EXCPN calls in couple of
places to drop down to pure kernel mode (from exception mode) before

On some PAE architectures, the entire range of physical memory could reside
outside the 32-bit limit. These systems need the ability to specify the
initrd location using 64-bit numbers.
This patch globally modifies the early_init_dt_setup_initrd_arch() function to
use 64-bit numbers instead of the current unsigned long.
There has been quite a bit of debate about whether to use u64 or phys_addr_t.
It was concluded to stick to u64 to be consistent with rest of the device
tree code. As summarized by Geert, "The address to load the initrd is decided
by the bootloader/user and set at that point later in time. The dtb should not
be tied to the kernel you are booting"

A few remaining architectures directly kill the page faulting task in an
out of memory situation. This is usually not a good idea since that
task might not even use a significant amount of memory and so may not be
the optimal victim to resolve the situation.
Since 2.6.29's 1c0fe6e ("mm: invoke oom-killer from page fault") there
is a hook that architecture page fault handlers are supposed to call to
invoke the OOM killer and let it pick the right task to kill. Convert
the remaining architectures over to this hook.
To have the previous behavior of simply taking out the faulting task the
vm.oom_kill_allocating_task sysctl can be set to 1.

The __cpuinit type of throwaway sections might have made sense
some time ago when RAM was more constrained, but now the savings
do not offset the cost and complications. For example, the fix in
commit 5e427ec2d0 ("x86: Fix bit corruption at CPU resume time")
is a good example of the nasty type of bugs that can be created
with improper use of the various __init prefixes.
After a discussion on LKML[1] it was decided that cpuinit should go
the way of devinit and be phased out. Once all the users are gone,
we can then finally remove the macros themselves from linux/init.h.
Note that some harmless section mismatch warnings may result, since
notify_cpu_starting() and cpu_up() are arch independent (kernel/cpu.c)
are flagged as __cpuinit -- so if we remove the __cpuinit from
arch specific callers, we will also get section mismatch warnings.
As an intermediate step, we intend to turn the linux/init.h cpuinit
content into no-ops as early as possible, since that will get rid
of these warnings. In any case, they are temporary and harmless.
This removes all the arch/arc uses of the __cpuinit macros from
all C files. Currently arc does not have any __CPUINIT used in
assembly files.

Further, for both the callers of do_page_fault(): Prot-V / D-TLB-Miss,
the cause sub-fields in ECR are same for same type of access, making the
code much more simpler.

And because precedence of '||' is more that that of '?', gcc was optimizing
away evaluation of <a>
Nasty Repercussions:
1. For non-aliasing configs it would mean some extraneous dcache flushes
for non-code pages if U/K mappings were not congruent.
2. For aliasing config, some needed dcache flush for code pages might
be missed if U/K mappings were congruent.

ARC700 MMU provides fully orthogonal permission bits per page:
Ur, Uw, Ux, Kr, Kw, Kx
The user mode page permission templates used to have all Kernel mode
access bits enabled.
This caused a tricky race condition observed with uClibc buffered file
read and UNIX pipes.
1. Read access to an anon mapped page in libc .bss: write-protected
zero_page mapped: TLB Entry installed with Ur + K[rwx]
2. grep calls libc:getc() -> buffered read layer calls read(2) with the
internal read buffer in same .bss page.
The read() call is on STDIN which has been redirected to a pipe.
read(2) => sys_read() => pipe_read() => copy_to_user()
3. Since page has Kernel-write permission (despite being user-mode
write-protected), copy_to_user() suceeds w/o taking a MMU TLB-Miss
Exception (page-fault for ARC). core-MM is unaware that kernel
erroneously wrote to the reserved read-only zero-page (BUG #1)
4. Control returns to userspace which now does a write to same .bss page
Since Linux MM is not aware that page has been modified by kernel, it
simply reassigns a new writable zero-init page to mapping, loosing the
prior write by kernel - effectively zero'ing out the libc read buffer
under the hood - hence grep doesn't see right data (BUG #2)
The fix is to make all kernel-mode access permissions mirror the
user-mode ones. Note that the kernel still has full access to pages,
when accessed directly (w/o MMU) - this fix ensures that kernel-mode
access in copy_to_from() path uses the same faulting access model as for
pure user accesses to keep MM fully aware of page state.
The issue is peudo-random because it only shows up if the TLB entry
installed in #1 is present at the time of #3. If it is evicted out, due
to TLB pressure or some-such, then copy_to_user() does take a TLB Miss
Exception, with a routine write-to-anon COW processing installing a
fresh page for kernel writes and also usable as it is in userspace.
Further the issue was dormant for so long as it depends on where the
libc internal read buffer (in .bss) is mapped at runtime.
If it happens to reside in file-backed data mapping of libc (in the
page-aligned slack space trailing the file backed data), loader zero
padding the slack space, does the early cow page replacement, setting
things up at the very beginning itself.
With gcc 4.8 based builds, the libc buffer got pushed out to a real
anon mapping which triggers the issue.

Flush and INVALIDATE the dcache page.
This helper is only used for writeback of CODE pages to memory. So
there's no value in keeping the dcache lines around. Infact it is risky
as a writeback on natural eviction under pressure can cause un-needed
writeback with weird issues on aliasing dcache configurations.

This is the meat of the series which prevents any dcache alias creation
by always keeping the U and K mapping of a page congruent.
If a mapping already exists, and other tries to access the page, prev
one is flushed to physical page (wback+inv)
Essentially flush_dcache_page()/copy_user_highpage() create K-mapping
of a page, but try to defer flushing, unless U-mapping exist.
When page is actually mapped to userspace, update_mmu_cache() flushes
the K-mapping (in certain cases this can be optimised out)
Additonally flush_cache_mm(), flush_cache_range(), flush_cache_page()
handle the puring of stale userspace mappings on exit/munmap...
flush_anon_page() handles the existing U-mapping for anon page before
kernel reads it via the GUP path.
Note that while not complete, this is enough to boot a simple
dynamically linked Busybox based rootfs

flush_dcache_page( ) is MM hook to ensure that a page has consistent
views between kernel and userspace. Thus it is called when
* kernel writes to a page which at some later point could get mapped to
userspace (so kernel mapping needs to be flushed-n-inv)
* kernel is about to read from a page with possible userspace mappings
(so userspace mappings needs to be made coherent with kernel ones)
However for Non aliasing VIPT dcache, any userspace mapping will always
be congruent to kernel mapping. Thus d-cache need need not be flushed at
all (or delayed indefinitely).
The only reason it does need to be flushed is when mapping code pages.
Since icache doesn't snoop dcache, those dirty dcache lines need to be
written back to memory and icache line invalidated so that icache lines
fetch will get the right data.
Decent gains on LMBench fork/exec/sh and File I/O micro-benchmarks.

Now that we have same helper used for all icache invalidates (i.e.

Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com>
This change continues the theme from prev commit - this time icache
handling for kernel's own code modification (vmalloc: loadable modules,
breakpoints for kprobes/kgdb...)
flush_icache_range() calls the CDU icache helper with vaddr to enable
exact line invalidate.
For a true kernel-virtual mapping, the vaddr is actually virtual hence
valid as index into cache. For kprobes breakpoint however, the vaddr arg
is actually paddr - since that's how normal kernel is mapped in ARC
memory map. This implies that CDU will use the same addr for
indexing as for tag match - which is fine since kernel code would only
have that "implicit" mapping and none other.
This should speed up module loading significantly - specially on default
ARC700 icache configurations (32k) which alias.
Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com>
ARC icache doesn't snoop dcache thus executable pages need to be made
coherent before mapping into userspace in flush_icache_page().
However ARC700 CDU (hardware cache flush module) requires both vaddr
(index in cache) as well as paddr (tag match) to correctly identify a
line in the VIPT cache. A typical ARC700 SoC has aliasing icache, thus
the paddr only based flush_icache_page() API couldn't be implemented
efficiently. It had to loop thru all possible alias indexes and perform
the invalidate operation (ofcourse the cache op would only succeed at
the index(es) where tag matches - typically only 1, but the cost of
visiting all the cache-bins needs to paid nevertheless).
Turns out however that the vaddr (along with paddr) is available in
update_mmu_cache() hence better suits ARC icache flush semantics.
With both vaddr+paddr, exactly one flush operation per line is done.

via TLB.
Implementing this allows the /dev/mem driver to use its generic access()
VMA callback, which in turn allows ptrace to examine data in memory
mapped regions mapped via /dev/mem, such as Arc DCCM.
The end result is that it is possible to examine values of variables

ARC common code to enable a SMP system + ISS provided SMP extensions.
ARC700 natively lacks SMP support, hence some of the core features are
are only enabled if SoCs have the necessary h/w pixie-dust. This
includes:
-Inter Processor Interrupts (IPI)
-Cache coherency
-load-locked/store-conditional
...
The low level exception handling would be completely broken in SMP
because we don't have hardware assisted stack switching. Thus a fair bit
of this code is repurposing the MMU_SCRATCH reg for event handler
prologues to keep them re-entrant.
Many thanks to Rajeshwar Ranga for his initial "major" contributions to
SMP Port (back in 2008), and to Noam Camus and Gilad Ben-Yossef for help
with resurrecting that in 3.2 kernel (2012).
Note that this platform code is again singleton design pattern - so
multiple SMP platforms won't build at the moment - this deficiency is
addressed in subsequent patches within this series.

* Build time entries for things which can be runtime extracted from DT

* Not multi-platform-image-build friendly (choice .. endchoice constructs)
* cpu variants support (750/770) is exclusive.
The first 2 have been fixed in subsequent patches.
Due to the nature of the 750 and 770, it is not possible to build for
both together, w/o special runtime glue code which would hurt
