powerpc/32: Remove PAGE_KERNEL_TEXT to fix startup failure

2025-10-29T13:07:00+00:00

[ Upstream commit 9316512b717f6f25c4649b3fdb0a905b6a318e9f ] PAGE_KERNEL_TEXT is an old macro that is used to tell kernel whether kernel text has to be mapped read-only or read-write based on build time options. But nowadays, with functionnalities like jump_labels, static links, etc ... more only less all kernels need to be read-write at some point, and some combinations of configs failed to work due to innacurate setting of PAGE_KERNEL_TEXT. On the other hand, today we have CONFIG_STRICT_KERNEL_RWX which implements a more controlled access to kernel modifications. Instead of trying to keep PAGE_KERNEL_TEXT accurate with all possible options that may imply kernel text modification, always set kernel text read-write at startup and rely on CONFIG_STRICT_KERNEL_RWX to provide accurate protection. Do this by passing PAGE_KERNEL_X to map_kernel_page() in __maping_ram_chunk() instead of passing PAGE_KERNEL_TEXT. Once this is done, the only remaining user of PAGE_KERNEL_TEXT is mmu_mark_initmem_nx() which uses it in a call to setibat(). As setibat() ignores the RW/RO, we can seamlessly replace PAGE_KERNEL_TEXT by PAGE_KERNEL_X here as well and get rid of PAGE_KERNEL_TEXT completely.

powerpc/book3s64/memhotplug: enable memmap on memory for radix

2023-08-21T20:37:49+00:00

Radix vmemmap mapping can map things correctly at the PMD level or PTE level based on different device boundary checks. Hence we skip the restrictions w.r.t vmemmap size to be multiple of PMD_SIZE. This also makes the feature widely useful because to use PMD_SIZE vmemmap area we require a memory block size of 2GiB We can also use MHP_RESERVE_PAGES_MEMMAP_ON_MEMORY to that the feature can work with a memory block size of 256MB. Using altmap.reserve feature to align things correctly at pageblock granularity. We can end up losing some pages in memory with this. For ex: with a 256MiB memory block size, we require 4 pages to map vmemmap pages, In order to align things correctly we end up adding a reserve of 28 pages. ie, for every 4096 pages 28 pages get reserved.

powerpc/book3s64/vmemmap: switch radix to use a different vmemmap handling function

2023-08-18T17:12:55+00:00

This is in preparation to update radix to implement vmemmap optimization for devdax. Below are the rules w.r.t radix vmemmap mapping 1. First try to map things using PMD (2M) 2. With altmap if altmap cross-boundary check returns true, fall back to PAGE_SIZE 3. If we can't allocate PMD_SIZE backing memory for vmemmap, fallback to PAGE_SIZE On removing vmemmap mapping, check if every subsection that is using the vmemmap area is invalid. If found to be invalid, that implies we can safely free the vmemmap area. We don't use the PAGE_UNUSED pattern used by x86 because with 64K page size, we need to do the above check even at the PAGE_SIZE granularity.

powerpc: Make virt_to_pfn() a static inline

2023-08-16T13:54:49+00:00

Making virt_to_pfn() a static inline taking a strongly typed (const void *) makes the contract of a passing a pointer of that type to the function explicit and exposes any misuse of the macro virt_to_pfn() acting polymorphic and accepting many types such as (void *), (unitptr_t) or (unsigned long) as arguments without warnings. Move the virt_to_pfn() and related functions below the declaration of __pa() so it compiles. For symmetry do the same with pfn_to_kaddr(). As the file is included right into the linker file, we need to surround the functions with ifndef __ASSEMBLY__ so we don't cause compilation errors. The conversion moreover exposes the fact that pmd_page_vaddr() was returning an unsigned long rather than a const void * as could be expected, so all the sites defining pmd_page_vaddr() had to be augmented as well. Finally the KVM code in book3s_64_mmu_hv.c was passing an unsigned int to virt_to_phys() so fix that up with a cast so the result compiles.

procfs: consolidate arch_report_meminfo declaration

2023-05-17T07:24:49+00:00

The arch_report_meminfo() function is provided by four architectures, with a __weak fallback in procfs itself. On architectures that don't have a custom version, the __weak version causes a warning because of the missing prototype. Remove the architecture specific prototypes and instead add one in linux/proc_fs.h.

mm: remove kern_addr_valid() completely

2022-11-09T01:37:18+00:00

Most architectures (except arm64/x86/sparc) simply return 1 for kern_addr_valid(), which is only used in read_kcore(), and it calls copy_from_kernel_nofault() which could check whether the address is a valid kernel address. So as there is no need for kern_addr_valid(), let's remove it.
