powerpc: add export.h to files making use of EXPORT_SYMBOL

2011-10-31T23:30:37+00:00

With module.h being implicitly everywhere via device.h, the absence
of explicitly including something for EXPORT_SYMBOL went unnoticed.
Since we are heading to fix things up and clean module.h from the
device.h file, we need to explicitly include these files now.

powerpc: Fix oops when echoing bad values to /sys/devices/system/memory/probe

2011-09-20T05:53:23+00:00

If we echo an address the hypervisor doesn't like to
/sys/devices/system/memory/probe we oops the box:

# echo 0x10000000000 > /sys/devices/system/memory/probe

kernel BUG at arch/powerpc/mm/hash_utils_64.c:541!

The backtrace is:

create_section_mapping
arch_add_memory
add_memory
memory_probe_store
sysdev_class_store
sysfs_write_file
vfs_write
SyS_write

In create_section_mapping we BUG if htab_bolt_mapping returned
an error. A better approach is to return an error which will
propagate back to userspace.

Rerunning the test with this patch applied:

# echo 0x10000000000 > /sys/devices/system/memory/probe
-bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument

powerpc: Hugetlb for BookE

2011-09-19T23:19:40+00:00

Enable hugepages on Freescale BookE processors.  This allows the kernel to
use huge TLB entries to map pages, which can greatly reduce the number of
TLB misses and the amount of TLB thrashing experienced by applications with
large memory footprints.  Care should be taken when using this on FSL
processors, as the number of large TLB entries supported by the core is low
(16-64) on current processors.

The supported set of hugepage sizes include 4m, 16m, 64m, 256m, and 1g.
Page sizes larger than the max zone size are called "gigantic" pages and
must be allocated on the command line (and cannot be deallocated).

This is currently only fully implemented for Freescale 32-bit BookE
processors, but there is some infrastructure in the code for
64-bit BooKE.

powerpc: Free up some CPU feature bits by moving out MMU-related features

2011-04-27T04:18:52+00:00

Some of the 64bit PPC CPU features are MMU-related, so this patch moves
them to MMU_FTR_ bits.  All cpu_has_feature()-style tests are moved to
mmu_has_feature(), and seven feature bits are freed as a result.

powerpc: Replace open coded instruction patching with patch_instruction/patch_branch

2011-04-20T07:01:18+00:00

There are a few places we patch instructions without using
patch_instruction and patch_branch, probably because they
predated it. Fix it.

powerpc/mm: Avoid avoidable void* pointer

Change pgdir from a void to real type.  Having this as a void is
stupid and has already caused 1 bug.

powerpc: Fix call to subpage_protection()

2010-11-18T03:54:23+00:00

In:
  powerpc/mm: Fix pgtable cache cleanup with CONFIG_PPC_SUBPAGE_PROT
  commit d28513bc7f675d28b479db666d572e078ecf182d
  Author: David Gibson 

subpage_protection() was changed to to take an mm rather a pgdir but it
didn't change calling site in hashpage_preload().  The change wasn't
noticed at compile time since hashpage_preload() used a void* as the
parameter to subpage_protection().

This is obviously wrong and can trigger the following crash when
CONFIG_SLAB, CONFIG_DEBUG_SLAB, CONFIG_PPC_64K_PAGES
CONFIG_PPC_SUBPAGE_PROT are enabled.

memblock: Remove rmo_size, burry it in arch/powerpc where it belongs

2010-08-05T02:56:08+00:00

The RMA (RMO is a misnomer) is a concept specific to ppc64 (in fact
server ppc64 though I hijack it on embedded ppc64 for similar purposes)
and represents the area of memory that can be accessed in real mode
(aka with MMU off), or on embedded, from the exception vectors (which
is bolted in the TLB) which pretty much boils down to the same thing.

We take that out of the generic MEMBLOCK data structure and move it into
arch/powerpc where it belongs, renaming it to "RMA" while at it.
