2024-08-29Revert "RISC-V: mm: Document mmap changes"Charlie Jenkins1-16/+0
This mmap behavior caused unintended breakages so the behavior has been changed. Signed-off-by: Charlie Jenkins <charlie@rivosinc.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240826-riscv_mmap-v1-1-cd8962afe47f@rivosinc.com Signed-off-by: Palmer Dabbelt <palmer@rivosinc.com>
2024-07-26riscv: Extend sv39 linear mapping max size to 128GStuart Menefy1-5/+6
This harmonizes all virtual addressing modes which can now all map (PGDIR_SIZE * PTRS_PER_PGD) / 4 of physical memory. The RISCV implementation of KASAN requires that the boundary between shallow mappings are aligned on an 8G boundary. In this case we need VMALLOC_START to be 8G aligned. So although we only need to move the start of the linear mapping down by 4GiB to allow 128GiB to be mapped, we actually move it down by 8GiB (creating a 4GiB hole between the linear mapping and KASAN shadow space) to maintain the alignment requirement.

Define mmap on riscv to not provide an address that uses more bits than the hint address, if provided.

2023-10-10docs: move riscv under archCosta Shulyupin1-0/+157
and fix all in-tree references. Architecture-specific documentation is being moved into Documentation/arch/ as a way of cleaning up the top-level documentation directory and making the docs hierarchy more closely match the source hierarchy.
