The binary GCD algorithm is based on the following facts:
1. If a and b are all evens, then gcd(a,b) = 2 * gcd(a/2, b/2)
2. If a is even and b is odd, then gcd(a,b) = gcd(a/2, b)
3. If a and b are all odds, then gcd(a,b) = gcd((a-b)/2, b) = gcd((a+b)/2, b)
Even on x86 machines with reasonable division hardware, the binary
algorithm runs about 25% faster (80% the execution time) than the
division-based Euclidian algorithm.
On platforms like Alpha and ARMv6 where division is a function call to
emulation code, it's even more significant.
There are two variants of the code here, depending on whether a fast
__ffs (find least significant set bit) instruction is available. This
allows the unpredictable branches in the bit-at-a-time shifting loop to
be eliminated.
If fast __ffs is not available, the "even/odd" GCD variant is used.

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdint.h>
#include <string.h>

#include <unistd.h>

This outer cache allows to control active ways independently for
each CPU, but currently nothing is done for secondary CPUs. In
other words, all the ways are locked for secondary CPUs by default.
This commit fixes it to fully bring out the performance of this
outer cache.
There would be two possible ways to achieve this:
[1] Each CPU initializes active ways for itself. This can be done
via the SSCLPDAWCR register. This is a banked register, so each
CPU sees a different instance of the register for its own.
[2] The master CPU initializes active ways for all the CPUs. This
is available via SSCDAWCARMR(N) registers, where all instances
of SSCLPDAWCR are mirrored. They are mapped at the address
SSCDAWCARMR + 4 * N, where N is the CPU number.
The outer cache frame work does not support a per-CPU init callback.
So this commit adopts [2]; the master CPU iterates over possible CPUs
setting up SSCDAWCARMR(N) registers.

Commit 1c2f87c (ARM: 8025/1: Get rid of meminfo) broke the support for
MPU on ARMv7-R. This patch adapts the code inside CONFIG_ARM_MPU to use
memblocks appropriately.
MPU initialisation only uses the first memory region, and removes all
subsequent ones. Because looping over all regions that need removal is
inefficient, and memblock_remove already handles memory ranges, we can
flatten the 'for_each_memblock' part.

PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} macros were introduced *long* time
ago with promise that one day it will be possible to implement page
cache with bigger chunks than PAGE_SIZE.
This promise never materialized. And unlikely will.
We have many places where PAGE_CACHE_SIZE assumed to be equal to
PAGE_SIZE. And it's constant source of confusion on whether
PAGE_CACHE_* or PAGE_* constant should be used in a particular case,
especially on the border between fs and mm.
Global switching to PAGE_CACHE_SIZE != PAGE_SIZE would cause to much
breakage to be doable.
Let's stop pretending that pages in page cache are special. They are
not.
The changes are pretty straight-forward:
- <foo> << (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>;
- <foo> >> (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>;
- PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} -> PAGE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN};
- page_cache_get() -> get_page();
- page_cache_release() -> put_page();
This patch contains automated changes generated with coccinelle using
script below. For some reason, coccinelle doesn't patch header files.
I've called spatch for them manually.
The only adjustment after coccinelle is revert of changes to
PAGE_CAHCE_ALIGN definition: we are going to drop it later.
There are few places in the code where coccinelle didn't reach. I'll
fix them manually in a separate patch. Comments and documentation also
will be addressed with the separate patch.

The generic memremap() falls back to using ioremap_cache() to create
MEMREMAP_WB mappings if the requested region is not already covered
by the linear mapping, unless the architecture provides an implementation
of arch_memremap_wb().
Since ioremap_cache() is not appropriate on ARM to map memory with the
same attributes used for the linear mapping, implement arch_memremap_wb()
which does exactly that. Also, relax the WARN() check to allow MT_MEMORY_RW
mappings of pfn_valid() pages.

The original ARM-only ioremap flavor 'ioremap_cached' has been renamed
to 'ioremap_cache' to align with other architectures, and subsequently
abused in generic code to map things like firmware tables in memory.
For that reason, there is currently an effort underway to deprecate
ioremap_cache, whose semantics are poorly defined, and which is typed
with an __iomem annotation that is inappropriate for mappings of ordinary
memory.
However, original users of ioremap_cached() used it in a context where
the I/O connotation is appropriate, and replacing those instances with
memremap() does not make sense. So let's revive ioremap_cached(), so
that we can change back those original users before we drop ioremap_cache
entirely in favor of memremap.

Masahiro Yamada reports that we can fail to set the FW bit in the
auxiliary control register, which enables broadcasting the cache
maintanence operations. This occurs because we only check that the
SMP/nAMP bit is set, rather than checking whether all the bits we
want to be set are set.
Rearrange the code to ensure that all desired bits are set, and only
update the register if we discover some required bits are not set.

There are few things about *pte_alloc*() helpers worth cleaning up:
- 'vma' argument is unused, let's drop it;
- most __pte_alloc() callers do speculative check for pmd_none(),
before taking ptl: let's introduce pte_alloc() macro which does
the check.
The only direct user of __pte_alloc left is userfaultfd, which has
different expectation about atomicity wrt pmd.
- pte_alloc_map() and pte_alloc_map_lock() are redefined using
pte_alloc().

Given a device which uses arm_coherent_dma_ops and on which
dev_get_cma_area(dev) returns non-NULL, the following usage of the DMA
API with gfp=0 results in memory corruption and a memory leak.
p = dma_alloc_coherent(dev, sz, &dma, 0);
if (p)
dma_free_coherent(dev, sz, p, dma);
The memory leak is because the alloc allocates using
__alloc_simple_buffer() but the free attempts
dma_release_from_contiguous() which does not do free anything since the
page is not in the CMA area.
The memory corruption is because the free calls __dma_remap() on a page
which is backed by only first level page tables. The
apply_to_page_range() + __dma_update_pte() loop ends up interpreting the
section mapping as an addresses to a second level page table and writing
the new PTE to memory which is not used by page tables.
We don't have access to the GFP flags used for allocation in the free
function. Fix this by adding allocator backends and using this
information in the free function so that we always use the correct
release routine.

When CONFIG_DEBUG_ALIGN_RODATA is set, we get a link error:
arch/arm/mm/built-in.o:(.data+0x4bc): undefined reference to `__start_rodata_section_aligned'
However, this combination is useless, as XIP_KERNEL implies that all the

The physical-relative calculation between the XIP text and data sections
introduced by the previous patch was far from obvious. Let's simplify it
by turning it into a macro which takes the two (virtual) addresses.
This allows us to arrange the calculation in a more obvious manner - we
can make it two sub-expressions which calculate the physical address for
each symbol, and then takes the difference of those physical addresses.

For an XIP build, _etext does not represent the end of the
binary image that needs to stay mapped into the MODULES_VADDR area.
Years ago, data came before text in the memory map. However,
now that the order is text/init/data, an XIP_KERNEL needs to map
up to the data location in order to keep from cutting off
parts of the kernel that are needed.
We only map up to the beginning of data because data has already been
copied, so there's no reason to keep it around anymore.
A new symbol is created to make it clear what it is we are referring
to.
This fixes the bug where you might lose the end of your kernel area
after page table setup is complete.

If we know that TLB efficiency will not be an issue when memory is
accessed then it's not terribly important to allocate big chunks of
memory. The whole point of allocating the big chunks was that it would
make TLB usage efficient.
As Marek Szyprowski indicated:
Please note that mapping memory with larger pages significantly
improves performance, especially when IOMMU has a little TLB
cache. This can be easily observed when multimedia devices do
processing of RGB data with 90/270 degree rotation
Image rotation is distinctly an operation that needs to bounce around
through memory, so it makes sense that TLB efficiency is important
there.
Video decoding, on the other hand, is a fairly sequential operation.
During video decoding it's not expected that we'll be jumping all over
memory. Decoding video is also pretty heavy and the TLB misses aren't a
huge deal. Presumably most HW video acceleration users of dma-mapping
will not care about huge pages and will set DMA_ATTR_ALLOC_SINGLE_PAGES.
Allocating big chunks of memory is quite expensive, especially if we're
doing it repeadly and memory is full. In one (out of tree) usage model
it is common that arm_iommu_alloc_attrs() is called 16 times in a row,
each one trying to allocate 4 MB of memory. This is called whenever the
system encounters a new video, which could easily happen while the
memory system is stressed out. In fact, on certain social media
websites that auto-play video and have infinite scrolling, it's quite
common to see not just one of these 16x4MB allocations but 2 or 3 right
after another. Asking the system even to do a small amount of extra
work to give us big chunks in this case is just not a good use of time.
Allocating big chunks of memory is also expensive indirectly. Even if
we ask the system not to do ANY extra work to allocate _our_ memory,
we're still potentially eating up all big chunks in the system.
Presumably there are other users in the system that aren't quite as
flexible and that actually need these big chunks. By eating all the big
chunks we're causing extra work for the rest of the system. We also may
start making other memory allocations fail. While the system may be
robust to such failures (as is the case with dwc2 USB trying to allocate
buffers for Ethernet data and with WiFi trying to allocate buffers for
WiFi data), it is yet another big performance hit.

The __iommu_alloc_buffer() is expected to be called to allocate pretty
sizeable buffers. Upon simple tests of video I saw it trying to
allocate 4,194,304 bytes. The function tries to allocate large chunks
in order to optimize IOMMU TLB usage.
The current function is very, very slow.
One problem is the way it keeps trying and trying to allocate big
chunks. Imagine a very fragmented memory that has 4M free but no
contiguous pages at all. Further imagine allocating 4M (1024 pages).
We'll do the following memory allocations:
- For page 1:
- Try to allocate order 10 (no retry)
- Try to allocate order 9 (no retry)
- ...
- Try to allocate order 0 (with retry, but not needed)
- For page 2:
- Try to allocate order 9 (no retry)
- Try to allocate order 8 (no retry)
- ...
- Try to allocate order 0 (with retry, but not needed)
- ...
- ...
Total number of calls to alloc() calls for this case is:
sum(int(math.log(i, 2)) + 1 for i in range(1, 1025))
=> 9228
The above is obviously worse case, but given how slow alloc can be we
really want to try to avoid even somewhat bad cases. I timed the old
code with a device under memory pressure and it wasn't hard to see it
take more than 120 seconds to allocate 4 megs of memory! (NOTE: testing
was done on kernel 3.14, so possibly mainline would behave
differently).
A second problem is that allocating big chunks under memory pressure
when we don't need them is just not a great idea anyway unless we really
need them. We can make due pretty well with smaller chunks so it's
probably wise to leave bigger chunks for other users once memory
pressure is on.
Let's adjust the allocation like this:
1. If a big chunk fails, stop trying to hard and bump down to lower
order allocations.
2. Don't try useless orders. The whole point of big chunks is to
optimize the TLB and it can really only make use of 2M, 1M, 64K and
4K sizes.
We'll still tend to eat up a bunch of big chunks, but that might be the
right answer for some users. A future patch could possibly add a new
DMA_ATTR that would let the caller decide that TLB optimization isn't
important and that we should use smaller chunks. Presumably this would
be a sane strategy for some callers.

The use of CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA is generally seen as an essential part of
kernel self-protection:
http://www.openwall.com/lists/kernel-hardening/2015/11/30/13
Additionally, its name has grown to mean things beyond just rodata. To
get ARM closer to this, we ought to rearrange the names of the configs
that control how the kernel protects its memory. What was called
CONFIG_ARM_KERNMEM_PERMS is realy doing the work that other architectures
call CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA.
This redefines CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA to actually do the bulk of the
ROing (and NXing). In the place of the old CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA, use
CONFIG_DEBUG_ALIGN_RODATA, since that's what the option does: adds
section alignment for making rodata explicitly NX, as arm does not split
the page tables like arm64 does without _ALIGN_RODATA.
Also adds human readable names to the sections so I could more easily
debug my typos, and makes CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA default "y" for CPU_V7.
Results in /sys/kernel/debug/kernel_page_tables for each config state:
# CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA is not set
# CONFIG_DEBUG_ALIGN_RODATA is not set

Make virt_to_idmap() return an unsigned long rather than phys_addr_t.
Returning phys_addr_t here makes no sense, because the definition of
virt_to_idmap() is that it shall return a physical address which maps
identically with the virtual address. Since virtual addresses are
limited to 32-bit, identity mapped physical addresses are as well.
Almost all users already had an implicit narrowing cast to unsigned long
so let's make this official and part of this interface.

Pull ARM SoC multiplatform code updates from Arnd Bergmann:
"This branch is the culmination of 5 years of effort to bring the ARMv6

boot the same kernel. It has been a tremendous amount of cleanup and
refactoring by a huge number of people, and creation of several new
(and major) subsystems to better abstract out all the platform details
in an appropriate manner.
The bulk of this branch is a large patchset from Arnd that brings
several of the more minor and older platforms we have closer to
multiplatform support. Among these are MMP, S3C64xx, Orion5x, mv78xx0
and realview Much of this is moving around header files from old mach
directories, but there are also some cleanup patches of debug_ll
(lowlevel debug per-platform options) and other parts.
Linus Walleij also has some patchs to clean up the older ARM Realview
platforms by finally introducing DT support, and Rob Herring has some
for ARM Versatile which is now DT-only. Both of these platforms are
now multiplatform.
Finally, a couple of patches from Russell for Dove PMU, and a fix from

Let's define page_mapped() to be true for compound pages if any
sub-pages of the compound page is mapped (with PMD or PTE).
On other hand page_mapcount() return mapcount for this particular small
page.
This will make cases like page_get_anon_vma() behave correctly once we
allow huge pages to be mapped with PTE.
Most users outside core-mm should use page_mapcount() instead of
page_mapped().

between increased ASLR effectiveness and avoiding address-space

compromise. Keep 8 as the minimum acceptable value.

According to commit 2503a5ecd86c002506001eba432c524ea009fe7f
"ARM: 6201/1: RealView: Do not use outer_sync() on ARM11MPCore
boards with L220" Some PB11MPCore RealView core tiles have broken
outer_sync.
We got rid of the custom barriers from the machine by disabling
outer sync, but that was just for the boardfile case. We have
to be able to do the same in the device tree case.
Since __l2c_init() is cloning and copying the L2C vtable,
we pass an argument to this function to optionally numb
the outer sync operation if desired, before initializing
the cache.
After this we can set up the cache correctly on the RealView
PB11MPCore. This was tested on a PB11MPCore known to have the
issue. Before this, spurious crashes would occur if we try to
set up the cache properly, after this it boots rock solid.

ARM925T symbol has been selected by the only user for many
years, so that can be removed along with the realview and
integrator specific ones.
This also solves randconfig build problems on realview.

Pull libnvdimm fixes from Dan Williams:
- Two bug fixes for misuse of PAGE_MASK in scatterlist and dma-debug.
These are tagged for -stable. The scatterlist impact is potentially
corrupted dma addresses on HIGHMEM enabled platforms.
- A minor locking fix for the NFIT hot-add implementation that is new
in 4.4-rc. This would only trigger in the case a hot-add raced
driver removal.

The proc-v7.S code uses a small temporary stack to preserve register
content in its setup code. This stack is located in the .text section
which is normally meant to be read-only.
Move that temporary stack to the .bss section and get its address in
a position independent way, similarly to what we do in other parts
of the kernel.
While at it, one comments was updated to reflect reality, and the list
of saved registers in the proc-v7.S case is updated to match the comment
next to it for coherency.
