From 321f7d29e5163d7f1c9c0b705acc45bd1be34aa6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Aneesh Kumar K.V" Date: Tue, 18 Apr 2017 12:31:27 +0530 Subject: powerpc/mmap: Any hint > 128TB searches the full VA space As part of the new large address space support, processes start out life with a 128TB virtual address space. However when calling mmap() a process can pass a hint address, and if that hint is > 128TB the kernel will use the full 512TB address space to try and satisfy the mmap() request. Currently we have a check that the hint is > 128TB and < 512TB (TASK_SIZE), which was added as an optimisation to avoid updating addr_limit unnecessarily and also to avoid calling slice_flush_segments() on all CPUs more than necessary. However this has the user-visible side effect that an mmap() hint above 512TB does not search the full address space unless a preceding mmap() used a hint value > 128TB && < 512TB. So fix it to treat any hint above 128TB as a hint to search the full address space, instead of checking the hint against TASK_SIZE, we instead check if the addr_limit is already == TASK_SIZE. This also brings the ABI in-line with what is proposed on x86. ie, that a hint address above 128TB up to and including (2^64)-1 is an indication to search the full address space.
