2009-06-09powerpc: Shield code specific to 64-bit server processorsBenjamin Herrenschmidt
This is a random collection of added ifdef's around portions of code that only mak sense on server processors. Using either CONFIG_PPC_STD_MMU_64 or CONFIG_PPC_BOOK3S as seems appropriate. This is meant to make the future merging of Book3E 64-bit support easier. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>
2008-10-14powerpc: Get USE_STRICT_MM_TYPECHECKS working againDavid Gibson
The typesafe version of the powerpc pagetable handling (with USE_STRICT_MM_TYPECHECKS defined) has bitrotted again. This patch makes a bunch of small fixes to get it back to building status. It's still not enabled by default as gcc still generates worse code with it for some reason.

2008-08-11powerpc/mm: Fix attribute confusion with htab_bolt_mapping()Benjamin Herrenschmidt
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.

2008-07-24powerpc: support multiple hugepage sizesJon Tollefson
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).

2008-05-15[POWERPC] vmemmap fixes to use smaller pagesBenjamin Herrenschmidt
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.

2008-04-24[POWERPC] 85xx: Add support for relocatable kernel (and booting at non-zero)Kumar Gala
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.

2008-04-17[POWERPC] Introduce lowmem_end_addr to distinguish from total_lowmemKumar Gala
total_lowmem represents the amount of low memory, not the physical 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 that lowmem ends at (or more specifically one byte beyond the end). 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.

2007-05-09[POWERPC] Don't use SLAB/SLUB for PTE pagesHugh Dickins
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).

2006-04-28[PATCH] powerpc: Fix pagetable bloat for hugepagesDavid Gibson
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. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
