2009-03-15[ARM] mem_init(): make highmem pages available for useNicolas Pitre
Signed-off-by: Nicolas Pitre <nico@marvell.com>
2009-03-12[ARM] Fix virtual to physical translation macro corner casesRussell King
The current use of these macros works well when the conversion is entirely linear. In this case, we can be assured that the following holds true: __va(p + s) - s = __va(p) However, this is not always the case, especially when there is a non-linear conversion (eg, when there is a 3.5GB hole in memory.) In this case, if 's' is the size of the region (eg, PAGE_SIZE) and 'p' is the final page, the above is most definitely not true. So, we must ensure that __va() and __pa() are only used with valid kernel direct mapped RAM addresses. This patch tweaks the code to achieve this.

2008-12-01[ARM] use asm/sections.hRussell King
Update to use the asm/sections.h header rather than declaring these symbols ourselves. Change __data_start to _data to conform with the naming found within asm/sections.h. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
2008-11-28[ARM] mem_init() cleanupsNicolas Pitre
Make free_area() arguments pfn based, and return number of freed pages. This will simplify highmem initialization later. Also, codepages, datapages and initpages are actually codesize, datasize and initsize. Signed-off-by: Nicolas Pitre <nico@marvell.com> Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
2008-11-28[ARM] rationalize memory configuration code some moreNicolas Pitre
Currently there are two instances of struct meminfo: one in kernel/setup.c marked __initdata, and another in mm/init.c with permanent storage. Let's keep only the later to directly populate the permanent version from arm_add_memory(). Also move common validation tests between the MMU and non-MMU cases into arm_add_memory() to remove some duplication. Protection against overflowing the membank array is also moved in there in order to cover the kernel cmdline parsing path as well.

2008-10-01[ARM] mm: finish ARM sparsemem supportRussell King
... including some comments about the ordering required to bring sparsemem up. You have to repeatedly guess, test, reguess, try again and again to work out what the right ordering is. Many hours later... Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
2008-10-01[ARM] mm: provide helpers for accessing membanksRussell King
Provide helpers for getting physical addresses or pfns from the meminfo array, and use them. Move for_each_nodebank() to asm/setup.h alongside the meminfo structure definition. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
2008-09-30[ARM] mm: move validation of membanks to one placeRussell King
The newly introduced sanity_check_meminfo() function should be used to collect all validation of the meminfo array, which we have in bootmem_init(). Move it there. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
2008-09-06[ARM] clean up a load of old declarationsRussell King
... some of which are now in linux/*.h headers. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
2008-09-06[ARM] move initrd code from kernel/setup.c to mm/init.cRussell King
This quietens some sparse warnings about phys_initrd_start and phys_initrd_size. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
2008-07-30[ARM] initrd: claim initrd memory exclusivelyRussell King
Claim the initrd memory exclusively, and order other memory reservations beforehand. This allows us to determine whether the initrd memory was overwritten, and disable the initrd in that case. This avoids a 'bad page state' bug. Tested-by: Ralph Siemsen <ralphs@netwinder.org> Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
2008-07-24mm: drop unneeded pgdat argument from free_area_init_node()Johannes Weiner
free_area_init_node() gets passed in the node id as well as the node descriptor. This is redundant as the function can trivially get the node descriptor itself by means of NODE_DATA() and the node's id. I checked all the users and NODE_DATA() seems to be usable everywhere from where this function is called.

2008-02-07Introduce flags for reserve_bootmem()Bernhard Walle
This patchset adds a flags variable to reserve_bootmem() and uses the BOOTMEM_EXCLUSIVE flag in crashkernel reservation code to detect collisions between crashkernel area and already used memory. This patch: Change the reserve_bootmem() function to accept a new flag BOOTMEM_EXCLUSIVE. If that flag is set, the function returns with -EBUSY if the memory already has been reserved in the past. This is to avoid conflicts. Because that code runs before SMP initialisation, there's no race condition inside reserve_bootmem_core().

2007-04-21[ARM] Remove needless linux/ptrace.h includesRussell King
Lots of places in arch/arm were needlessly including linux/ptrace.h, resumably because we used to pass a struct pt_regs to interrupt handlers. Now that we don't, all these ptrace.h includes are redundant. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
2007-01-24[ARM] Fix show_mem() for discontigmemRussell King
show_mem() was assuming incorrectly that the mem_map for any node started at PFN 0. This is obviously wrong; fix it to take account of node_start_pfn. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
2006-11-07[ARM] 3927/1: Allow show_mem() to work with holes in memory map.Ray Lehtiniemi
show_mem() was not correctly handling holes in the memory map. It was treating the freed sections of the map as though they contained valid struct page entries. This could cause incorrect debugging output or even a kernel panic. This patch keeps the struct meminfo around after system initialization so that show_mem() can use it when scanning memory. show_mem() now walks over each bank of each online node, rather than assuming that each node contains a single contiguous bank.

2006-09-27[ARM] Split ARM MM initialisation for !mmuRussell King

2006-09-27[ARM] Separate page table manipulation code from bootmem initialisationRussell King
nommu does not require the page table manipulation code in the bootmem initialisation paths. Move this into separate inline functions. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
2006-09-27[ARM] 3859/1: Fix devicemaps_init() XIP_KERNEL odd 1MiB XIP_PHYS_ADDR ↵George G. Davis
translation error The ARM XIP_KERNEL map created in devicemaps_init() is wrong. The map.pfn is rounded down to an even 1MiB section boundary which results in va/pa translations errors when XIP_PHYS_ADDR starts on an odd 1MiB boundary and this causes the kernel to hang. This patch fixes ARM XIP_KERNEL translation errors for the odd 1MiB XIP_PHYS_ADDR boundary case. Signed-off-by: George G.

2006-09-20[ARM] Cleanup arch/arm/mm a littleRussell King

2006-06-28[ARM] Remove TABLE_SIZE, and several unused function prototypesRussell King

2006-04-07[ARM] Move FLUSH_BASE macros to asm/arch/memory.hRussell King

2006-03-22[PATCH] remove set_page_count() outside mm/Nick Piggin
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.

2005-11-17[ARM] Fix some corner cases in new mm initialisationRussell King
Document that the VMALLOC_END address must be aligned to 2MB since it must align with a PGD boundary. Allocate the vectors page early so that the flush_cache_all() later will cause any dirty cache lines in the direct mapping will be safely written back. Move the flush_cache_all() to the second local_flush_cache_tlb() and remove the now redundant first local_flush_cache_tlb(). Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
2005-11-02[ARM] Fix mm initialisation with write buffered write allocate cachesRussell King

2005-04-16Linux-2.6.12-rc2Linus Torvalds
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
