MM: Pass a PTE pointer to update_mmu_cache() rather than the PTE itself

2010-02-20T16:41:46+00:00

On VIVT ARM, when we have multiple shared mappings of the same file
in the same MM, we need to ensure that we have coherency across all
copies.  We do this via make_coherent() by making the pages
uncacheable.

This used to work fine, until we allowed highmem with highpte - we
now have a page table which is mapped as required, and is not available
for modification via update_mmu_cache().

Ralf Beache suggested getting rid of the PTE value passed to
update_mmu_cache():

  On MIPS update_mmu_cache() calls __update_tlb() which walks pagetables
  to construct a pointer to the pte again.  Passing a pte_t * is much
  more elegant.  Maybe we might even replace the pte argument with the
  pte_t?

Ben Herrenschmidt would also like the pte pointer for PowerPC:

  Passing the ptep in there is exactly what I want.  I want that
  -instead- of the PTE value, because I have issue on some ppc cases,
  for I$/D$ coherency, where set_pte_at() may decide to mask out the
  _PAGE_EXEC.

So, pass in the mapped page table pointer into update_mmu_cache(), and
remove the PTE value, updating all implementations and call sites to
suit.

Includes a fix from Stephen Rothwell:

parisc: ensure broadcast tlb purge runs single threaded

2009-07-03T03:34:09+00:00

The TLB flushing functions on hppa, which causes PxTLB broadcasts on the system
bus, needs to be protected by irq-safe spinlocks to avoid irq handlers to deadlock
the kernel. The deadlocks only happened during I/O intensive loads and triggered
pretty seldom, which is why this bug went so long unnoticed.

[edited to use spin_lock_irqsave on UP as well since we'd been locking there
 all this time anyway, --kyle]

parisc: BUG_ON() cleanup

2009-03-13T05:16:35+00:00

- convert a few "if (xx) BUG();" to BUG_ON(xx)
- remove a few printk()s, as we get a backtrace with BUG_ON() anyway

on_each_cpu(): kill unused 'retry' parameter

2008-06-26T09:24:38+00:00

It's not even passed on to smp_call_function() anymore, since that
was removed. So kill it.

Detach sched.h from mm.h

2007-05-21T16:18:19+00:00

First thing mm.h does is including sched.h solely for can_do_mlock() inline
function which has "current" dereference inside. By dealing with can_do_mlock()
mm.h can be detached from sched.h which is good. See below, why.

This patch
a) removes unconditional inclusion of sched.h from mm.h
b) makes can_do_mlock() normal function in mm/mlock.c
c) exports can_do_mlock() to not break compilation
d) adds sched.h inclusions back to files that were getting it indirectly.
e) adds less bloated headers to some files (asm/signal.h, jiffies.h) that were
   getting them indirectly

Net result is:
a) mm.h users would get less code to open, read, preprocess, parse, ... if
   they don't need sched.h
b) sched.h stops being dependency for significant number of files:
   on x86_64 allmodconfig touching sched.h results in recompile of 4083 files,
   after patch it's only 3744 (-8.3%).

Cross-compile tested on

	all arm defconfigs, all mips defconfigs, all powerpc defconfigs,
	alpha alpha-up

	um-x86_64
	x86_64 x86_64-up x86_64-defconfig x86_64-allnoconfig

as well as my two usual configs.
