[ Upstream commit d195b71bad4347d2df51072a537f922546a904f1 ] swapper_low_pmd_dir and swapper_pud_dir are actually completely useless and unnecessary. We just need swapper_pg_dir[]. Naturally the other page table chunks will be allocated on an as-needed basis. Since the kernel actually accesses these tables in the PAGE_OFFSET view, there is not even a TLB locality advantage of placing them in the kernel image. Use the hard coded vmlinux.ld.S slot for swapper_pg_dir which is naturally page aligned. Increase MAX_BANKS to 1024 in order to handle heavily fragmented virtual guests. Even with this MAX_BANKS increase, the kernel is 20K+ smaller. Signed-off-by: David S.

[ Upstream commit 0dd5b7b09e13dae32869371e08e1048349fd040c ] If max_phys_bits needs to be > 43 (f.e. for T4 chips), things like DEBUG_PAGEALLOC stop working because the 3-level page tables only can cover up to 43 bits. Another problem is that when we increased MAX_PHYS_ADDRESS_BITS up to 47, several statically allocated tables became enormous. Compounding this is that we will need to support up to 49 bits of physical addressing for M7 chips. The two tables in question are sparc64_valid_addr_bitmap and kpte_linear_bitmap. The first holds a bitmap, with 1 bit for each 4MB chunk of physical memory, indicating whether that chunk actually exists in the machine and is valid. The second table is a set of 2-bit values which tell how large of a mapping (4MB, 256MB, 2GB, 16GB, respectively) we can use at each 256MB chunk of ram in the system. These tables are huge and take up an enormous amount of the BSS section of the sparc64 kernel image. Specifically, the sparc64_valid_addr_bitmap is 4MB, and the kpte_linear_bitmap is 128K. So let's solve the space wastage and the DEBUG_PAGEALLOC problem at the same time, by using the kernel page tables (as designed) to manage this information. We have to keep using large mappings when DEBUG_PAGEALLOC is disabled, and we do this by encoding huge PMDs and PUDs. On a T4-2 with 256GB of ram the kernel page table takes up 16K with DEBUG_PAGEALLOC disabled and 256MB with it enabled. Furthermore, this memory is dynamically allocated at run time rather than coded statically into the kernel image. Signed-off-by: David S.

Choose PAGE_OFFSET dynamically based upon cpu type. Original UltraSPARC-I (spitfire) chips only supported a 44-bit virtual address space. Newer chips (T4 and later) support 52-bit virtual addresses and up to 47-bits of physical memory space. Therefore we have to adjust PAGE_SIZE dynamically based upon the capabilities of the chip. Note that this change alone does not allow us to support > 43-bit physical memory, to do that we need to re-arrange our page table support. The current encodings of the pmd_t and pgd_t pointers restricts us to "32 + 11" == 43 bits. This change can waste quite a bit of memory for the various tables. In particular, a future change should work to size and allocate kern_linear_bitmap[] and sparc64_valid_addr_bitmap[] dynamically. This isn't easy as we really cannot take a TLB miss when accessing kern_linear_bitmap[]. We'd have to lock it into the TLB or similar. Signed-off-by: David S.

Document what's going on in asm/backoff.h with a large and descriptive comment. Refer to it above the cpu_relax() definition in asm/processor_64.h Rename the pause patching section to have "3insn" in it's name like the other patching sections do. Based upon feedback from Sam Ravnborg. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
In atomic backoff and cpu_relax(), use the pause instruction found on SPARC-T4 and later. It makes the cpu strand unselectable for the given number of cycles, unless an intervening disrupting trap occurs. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

On sun4v this is basically required since we point the hypervisor and the TSB walking hardware at these tables using physical addressing too. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Percpu allocator honors alignment request upto PAGE_SIZE and both the percpu addresses in the percpu address space and the translated kernel addresses should be aligned accordingly. The calculation of the former depends on the alignment of percpu output section in the kernel image. The linker script macros PERCPU_VADDR() and PERCPU() are used to define this output section and the latter takes @align parameter. Several architectures are using @align smaller than PAGE_SIZE breaking percpu memory alignment. This patch removes @align parameter from PERCPU(), renames it to PERCPU_SECTION() and makes it always align to PAGE_SIZE. While at it, add PCPU_SETUP_BUG_ON() checks such that alignment problems are reliably detected and remove percpu alignment comment recently added in workqueue.c as the condition would trigger BUG way before reaching there. For um, this patch raises the alignment of percpu area. As the area is in .init, there shouldn't be any noticeable difference. This problem was discovered by David Howells while debugging boot failure on mn10300.
