2008-07-24hugetlb: modular state for hugetlb page sizeAndi Kleen
The goal of this patchset is to support multiple hugetlb page sizes. This is achieved by introducing a new struct hstate structure, which encapsulates the important hugetlb state and constants (eg. huge page size, number of huge pages currently allocated, etc). The hstate structure is then passed around the code which requires these fields, they will do the right thing regardless of the exact hstate they are operating on. This patch adds the hstate structure, with a single global instance of it (default_hstate), and does the basic work of converting hugetlb to use the hstate. Future patches will add more hstate structures to allow for different hugetlbfs mounts to have different page sizes.

2008-07-24mm: remove double indirection on tlb parameter to free_pgd_range() & CoJan Beulich
The double indirection here is not needed anywhere and hence (at least) confusing.

2008-04-28hugetlbfs: common code update for s390Gerald Schaefer
Huge ptes have a special type on s390 and cannot be handled with the standard pte functions in certain cases, e.g. because of a different location of the invalid bit. This patch adds some new architecture- specific functions to hugetlb common code, as a prerequisite for the s390 large page support. This won't affect other architectures in functionality, but I need to add some new dummy inline functions to the headers.

2008-04-28hugetlbfs: add missing TLB flush to hugetlb_cow()Gerald Schaefer
A cow break on a hugetlbfs page with page_count > 1 will set a new pte with set_huge_pte_at(), w/o any tlb flush operation. The old pte will remain in the tlb and subsequent write access to the page will result in a page fault loop, for as long as it may take until the tlb is flushed from somewhere else. This patch introduces an architecture-specific huge_ptep_clear_flush() function, which is called before the the set_huge_pte_at() in hugetlb_cow(). ATTENTION: This is just a nop on all architectures for now, the s390 implementation will come with our large page patch later. Other architectures should define their own huge_ptep_clear_flush() if needed.

2008-04-28hugetlbfs: architecture header cleanupGerald Schaefer
This patch moves all architecture functions for hugetlb to architecture header files (include/asm-foo/hugetlb.h) and converts all macros to inline functions. It also removes (!) ARCH_HAS_HUGEPAGE_ONLY_RANGE, ARCH_HAS_HUGETLB_FREE_PGD_RANGE, ARCH_HAS_PREPARE_HUGEPAGE_RANGE, ARCH_HAS_SETCLEAR_HUGE_PTE and ARCH_HAS_HUGETLB_PREFAULT_HOOK. Getting rid of the ARCH_HAS_xxx #ifdef and macro fugliness should increase readability and maintainability, at the price of some code duplication. An asm-generic common part would have reduced the loc, but we would end up with new ARCH_HAS_xxx defines eventually.
