2008-10-10x86: track memtype for RAM in page structSuresh Siddha2-0/+102
Track the memtype for RAM pages in page struct instead of using the memtype list. This avoids the explosion in the number of entries in memtype list (of the order of 20,000 with AGP) and makes the PAT tracking simpler. We are using PG_arch_1 bit in page->flags. We still use the memtype list for non RAM pages.

2008-10-10x86, cpa: srlz cpa(), global flush tlb after splitting big page and before ↵Suresh Siddha1-2/+38
doing cpa Do a global flush tlb after splitting the large page and before we do the actual change page attribute in the PTE. With out this, we violate the TLB application note, which says "The TLBs may contain both ordinary and large-page translations for a 4-KByte range of linear addresses. This may occur if software modifies the paging structures so that the page size used for the address range changes. If the two translations differ with respect to page frame or attributes (e.g., permissions), processor behavior is undefined and may be implementation-specific." And also serialize cpa() (for !DEBUG_PAGEALLOC which uses large identity mappings) using cpa_lock. So that we don't allow any other cpu, with stale large tlb entries change the page attribute in parallel to some other cpu splitting a large page entry along with changing the attribute.

No alias checking needed for setting present/not-present mapping. Otherwise, we may need to break large pages for 64-bit kernel text mappings (this adds to complexity if we want to do this from atomic context especially, for ex: with CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC).

2008-10-10x86, cpa: make the kernel physical mapping initialization a two pass sequenceSuresh Siddha2-20/+144
In the first pass, kernel physical mapping will be setup using large or small pages but uses the same PTE attributes as that of the early PTE attributes setup by early boot code in head_[32|64].S After flushing TLB's, we go through the second pass, which setups the direct mapped PTE's with the appropriate attributes (like NX, GLOBAL etc) which are runtime detectable. This two pass mechanism conforms to the TLB app note which says: "Software should not write to a paging-structure entry in a way that would change, for any linear address, both the page size and either the page frame or attributes."

BUG_ON(start >= end); /* end is exclusive */ But reserve_memtype already uses u64: int reserve_memtype(u64 start, u64 end, so the 32bit truncation must happen in the caller.

2008-08-15x86, pat: avoid highmem cache attribute aliasingNick Piggin1-0/+3
Highmem code can leave ptes and tlb entries around for a given page even after kunmap, and after it has been freed. >From what I can gather, the PAT code may change the cache attributes of arbitrary physical addresses (ie. including highmem pages), which would result in aliases in the case that it operates on one of these lazy tlb highmem pages. Flushing kmaps should solve the problem. I've also just added code for conditional flushing if we haven't got any dangling highmem aliases -- this should help performance if we change page attributes frequently or systems that aren't using much highmem pages (eg. if < 4G RAM). Should be turned into 2 patches, but just for RFC... Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

2008-08-15x86: fix /proc/meminfo DirectMapHugh Dickins2-7/+17
Do we actually want these DirectMap lines in the x86 /proc/meminfo? I can see they're interesting to CPA developers and TLB optimizers, but they don't fit its usual "where has all my memory gone?" usage. If they are to stay, here are some fixes. 1. On x86_32 without PAE, they're not 2M but 4M pages: no need to mess with the internal enum, but show the right name to users. 2. Many machines can never show anything but 0 for DirectMap1G, so suppress that line unless direct_gbpages are really enabled. 3. The unit in /proc/meminfo is kB not number of pages: HugePages messed that up, but they're an example to regret not to follow. 4. Once we use kB, it's easy to see that 1GB has gone missing (which explains why CONFIG_CPA_DEBUG=y soon wraps DirectMap2M negative): because head_64.S's level2_ident_pgt entries were not counted. My fix is not ideal, but works for more and for less than 1G, and avoids interfering with early bootup pagetable contortions.

2008-07-26x86: lockless get_user_pages_fast()Nick Piggin2-0/+259
Implement get_user_pages_fast without locking in the fastpath on x86. Do an optimistic lockless pagetable walk, without taking mmap_sem or any page table locks or even mmap_sem. Page table existence is guaranteed by turning interrupts off (combined with the fact that we're always looking up the current mm, means we can do the lockless page table walk within the constraints of the TLB shootdown design). Basically we can do this lockless pagetable walk in a similar manner to the way the CPU's pagetable walker does not have to take any locks to find present ptes. This patch (combined with the subsequent ones to convert direct IO to use it) was found to give about 10% performance improvement on a 2 socket 8 core Intel Xeon system running an OLTP workload on DB2 v9.5 "To test the effects of the patch, an OLTP workload was run on an IBM x3850 M2 server with 2 processors (quad-core Intel Xeon processors at 2.93 GHz) using IBM DB2 v9.5 running Linux 2.6.24rc7 kernel. Comparing runs with and without the patch resulted in an overall performance benefit of ~9.8%. Correspondingly, oprofiles showed that samples from __up_read and __down_read routines that is seen during thread contention for system resources was reduced from 2.8% down to .05%. Monitoring the /proc/vmstat output from the patched run showed that the counter for fast_gup contained a very high number while the fast_gup_slow value was zero." (fast_gup is the old name for get_user_pages_fast, fast_gup_slow is a counter we had for the number of times the slowpath was invoked). The main reason for the improvement is that DB2 has multiple threads each issuing direct-IO. Direct-IO uses get_user_pages, and thus the threads contend the mmap_sem cacheline, and can also contend on page table locks. I would anticipate larger performance gains on larger systems, however I think DB2 uses an adaptive mix of threads and processes, so it could be that thread contention remains pretty constant as machine size increases. In which case, we stuck with "only" a 10% gain. The downside of using get_user_pages_fast is that if there is not a pte with the correct permissions for the access, we end up falling back to get_user_pages and so the get_user_pages_fast is a bit of extra work. However this should not be the common case in most performance critical code.

2008-07-24hugetlb: modular state for hugetlb page sizeAndi Kleen1-2/+3
The goal of this patchset is to support multiple hugetlb page sizes. This is achieved by introducing a new struct hstate structure, which encapsulates the important hugetlb state and constants (eg. huge page size, number of huge pages currently allocated, etc). The hstate structure is then passed around the code which requires these fields, they will do the right thing regardless of the exact hstate they are operating on. This patch adds the hstate structure, with a single global instance of it (default_hstate), and does the basic work of converting hugetlb to use the hstate. Future patches will add more hstate structures to allow for different hugetlbfs mounts to have different page sizes.

2008-07-24access_process_vm device memory infrastructureRik van Riel1-0/+8
In order to be able to debug things like the X server and programs using the PPC Cell SPUs, the debugger needs to be able to access device memory through ptrace and /proc/pid/mem. This patch: Add the generic_access_phys access function and put the hooks in place to allow access_process_vm to access device or PPC Cell SPU memory.

2008-07-24mm: move bootmem descriptors definition to a single placeJohannes Weiner2-5/+2
There are a lot of places that define either a single bootmem descriptor or an array of them. Use only one central array with MAX_NUMNODES items instead.

2008-07-22x86: rename PTE_MASK to PTE_PFN_MASKJeremy Fitzhardinge1-5/+5
Rusty, in his peevish way, complained that macros defining constants should have a name which somewhat accurately reflects the actual purpose of the constant. Aside from the fact that PTE_MASK gives no clue as to what's actually being masked, and is misleadingly similar to the functionally entirely different PMD_MASK, PUD_MASK and PGD_MASK, I don't really see what the problem is. But if this patch silences the incessent noise, then it will have achieved its goal (TODO: write test-case).
