mm: remove pte_*map_nested()

2010-10-26T23:52:08+00:00

Since we no longer need to provide KM_type, the whole pte_*map_nested()
API is now redundant, remove it.

powerpc/ppc32: Fixup pmd_page to work when ARCH_PFN_OFFSET is non-zero

2010-04-07T08:00:30+00:00

Instead of referencing mem_map directly, use pfn_to_page. Otherwise
the kernel crashes when trying to start userspace if ARCH_PFN_OFFSET is
non-zero and CONFIG_BOOKE is not defined

powerpc/fsl-booke: Use HW PTE format if CONFIG_PTE_64BIT

2009-09-02T06:20:41+00:00

Switch to using the Power ISA defined PTE format when we have a 64-bit
PTE.  This makes the code handling between fsl-booke and book3e-64
similiar for TLB faults.

Additionally this lets use take advantage of the page size encodings and
full permissions that the HW PTE defines.

Also defined _PMD_PRESENT, _PMD_PRESENT_MASK, and _PMD_BAD since the
32-bit ppc arch code expects them.

powerpc/mm: Cleanup handling of execute permission

2009-08-27T03:12:51+00:00

This is an attempt at cleaning up a bit the way we handle execute
permission on powerpc. _PAGE_HWEXEC is gone, _PAGE_EXEC is now only
defined by CPUs that can do something with it, and the myriad of
#ifdef's in the I$/D$ coherency code is reduced to 2 cases that
hopefully should cover everything.

The logic on BookE is a little bit different than what it was though
not by much. Since now, _PAGE_EXEC will be set by the generic code
for executable pages, we need to filter out if they are unclean and
recover it. However, I don't expect the code to be more bloated than
it already was in that area due to that change.

I could boast that this brings proper enforcing of per-page execute
permissions to all BookE and 40x but in fact, we've had that now for
some time as a side effect of my previous rework in that area (and
I didn't even know it :-) We would only enable execute permission if
the page was cache clean and we would only cache clean it if we took
and exec fault. Since we now enforce that the later only work if
VM_EXEC is part of the VMA flags, we de-fact already enforce per-page
execute permissions... Unless I missed something

powerpc: Fix up dma_alloc_coherent() on platforms without cache coherency.

2009-05-27T06:33:59+00:00

The implementation we just revived has issues, such as using a
Kconfig-defined virtual address area in kernel space that nothing
actually carves out (and thus will overlap whatever is there),
or having some dependencies on being self contained in a single
PTE page which adds unnecessary constraints on the kernel virtual
address space.

This fixes it by using more classic PTE accessors and automatically
locating the area for consistent memory, carving an appropriate hole
in the kernel virtual address space, leaving only the size of that
area as a Kconfig option. It also brings some dma-mask related fixes
from the ARM implementation which was almost identical initially but
grew its own fixes.

powerpc: Minor cleanups of kernel virt address space definitions

2009-05-27T06:32:50+00:00

Make FIXADDR_TOP a compile time constant and cleanup a
couple of definitions relative to the layout of the kernel
address space on ppc32. We also print out that layout at
boot time for debugging purposes.

This is a pre-requisite for properly fixing non-coherent
DMA allocactions.

powerpc/mm: Merge various PTE bits and accessors definitions

2009-03-24T02:47:33+00:00

Now that they are almost identical, we can merge some of the definitions
related to the PTE format into common files.

This creates a new pte-common.h which is included by both 32 and 64-bit
right after the CPU specific pte-*.h file, and which defines some
bits to "default" values if they haven't been defined already, and
then provides a generic definition of most of the bit combinations
based on these and exposed to the rest of the kernel.

I also moved to the common pgtable.h most of the "small" accessors to the
PTE bits and modification helpers (pte_mk*). The actual accessors remain
in their separate files.

powerpc/mm: Tweak PTE bit combination definitions

2009-03-24T02:47:33+00:00

This patch tweaks the way some PTE bit combinations are defined, in such a
way that the 32 and 64-bit variant become almost identical and that will
make it easier to bring in a new common pte-* file for the new variant
of the Book3-E support.

The combination of bits defining access to kernel pages are now clearly
separated from the combination used by userspace and the core VM. The
resulting generated code should remain identical unless I made a mistake.

Note: While at it, I removed a non-sensical statement related to CONFIG_KGDB
in ppc_mmu_32.c which could cause kernel mappings to be user accessible when
that option is enabled. Probably something that bitrot.

powerpc/mm: Unify PTE_RPN_SHIFT and _PAGE_CHG_MASK definitions

2009-03-20T04:56:58+00:00

This updates the 32-bit headers to use the same definitions for the RPN
shift inside the PTE as 64-bit, and thus updates _PAGE_CHG_MASK to
become identical.

This does introduce a runtime visible difference, which is that now,
_PAGE_HASHPTE will be part of _PAGE_CHG_MASK and thus preserved. However
this should have no practical effect as it should have been preserved in
the first place and we got away with not having it there due to our
PTE access functions preserving it anyway.

powerpc/mm: Split the various pgtable-* headers based on MMU type

2009-03-20T04:56:57+00:00

This patch moves the definition of the PTE format for each MMU type
to separate files instead of all in one file. This improves overall
maintainability and will make it easier to add new types.

On 64-bit, additionally, I've separated the headers relative to the
format of the page table tree (3 vs. 4 levels for 64K vs 4K pages)
from the headers specific to the PTE format for hash based processors,
this will make it easier to add support for Book3 "E" 64-bit
implementations.

There are still some type-related ifdef's in the generic headers,
we might remove them in the long run, but this patch shouldn't result
in any code change, -hopefully- just definitions being moved around.
