* powerpc/mm: Fix 40x and 8xx vs. _PAGE_SPECIALBenjamin Herrenschmidt2009-09-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | The test to check whether we have _PAGE_SPECIAL defined is broken, since we always define it, just not always to a meaninful value :-) That broke 8xx and 40x under some circumstances. This fixes it by adding _PAGE_SPECIAL for both of these since they had a free PTE bit, and removing the condition around advertising it.

* powerpc: Fix ibm,client-architecture-support printoutAnton Blanchard2009-09-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On machines without the ibm,client-architecture-support call we were missing a newline. We may as well print the full name in all its glory too - its ibm,client-architecture-support, not ibm,client-architecture as I mistakenly wrote (a name only an IBM architect could love). For my penance I will write out ibm,client-architecture-support 100 times.

* powerpc: Increase NODES_SHIFT on 64bit from 4 to 8Anton Blanchard2009-09-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some System p configurations can already have more than 16 nodes so we need to increase NODES_SHIFT. I chose 256 to give us some room to grow in the future, although we can look at something smaller if the memory bloat is considered too much. Unless we clamp MAX_ACTIVE_REGIONS we end up with 300kB of extra bloat in early_node_map in mm/page_alloc.c: < 6144 early_node_map > 307200 early_node_map due to: #if MAX_NUMNODES >= 32 /* If there can be many nodes, allow up to 50 holes per node */ #define MAX_ACTIVE_REGIONS (MAX_NUMNODES*50) #else /* By default, allow up to 256 distinct regions */ #define MAX_ACTIVE_REGIONS 256 Since our memory is mostly contiguous it seems reasonable to keep this at 256 for now. I also set 32bit to 32 to save space (is there any chance a 32bit system will have more than 32 discontiguous memory ranges?). Even with that fixed we have a few data structures that grow: < 896 bootmem_node_data > 14336 bootmem_node_data < 1280 node_devices > 20480 node_devices < 25088 kmalloc_caches > 59648 kmalloc_caches < 1632 hstates > 21792 hstates Signed-off-by: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org> Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>
* powerpc/perf_counter: Fix vdso detectionAnton Blanchard2009-09-24
| | | | | | | | | perf_counter uses arch_vma_name() to detect a vdso region which in turn uses current->mm->context.vdso_base. We need to initialise this before doing the mmap or else we fail to detect the vdso. Signed-off-by: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org> Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>
* powerpc: Move 64bit heap above 1TB on machines with 1TB segmentsAnton Blanchard2009-09-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If we are using 1TB segments and we are allowed to randomise the heap, we can put it above 1TB so it is backed by a 1TB segment. Otherwise the heap will be in the bottom 1TB which always uses 256MB segments and this may result in a performance penalty. This functionality is disabled when heap randomisation is turned off: echo 1 > /proc/sys/kernel/randomize_va_space which may be useful when trying to allocate the maximum amount of 16M or 16G pages. On a microbenchmark that repeatedly touches 32GB of memory with a stride of 256MB + 4kB (designed to stress 256MB segments while still mapping nicely into the L1 cache), we see the improvement: Force malloc to use heap all the time: # export MALLOC_MMAP_MAX_=0 MALLOC_TRIM_THRESHOLD_=-1 Disable heap randomization: # echo 1 > /proc/sys/kernel/randomize_va_space # time ./test 12.51s Enable heap randomization: # echo 2 > /proc/sys/kernel/randomize_va_space # time ./test 1.70s Signed-off-by: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org> Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>
* powerpc: Change archdata dma_data to a unionBecky Bruce2009-09-24
| | | | | | | | | | Sometimes this is used to hold a simple offset, and sometimes it is used to hold a pointer. This patch changes it to a union containing void * and dma_addr_t. get/set accessors are also provided, because it was getting a bit ugly to get to the actual data.

* powerpc: Rename get_dma_direct_offset get_dma_offsetBecky Bruce2009-09-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | The former is no longer really accurate with the swiotlb case now a possibility. I also move it into dma-mapping.h - it no longer needs to be in dma.c, and there are about to be some more accessors that should all end up in the same place. A comment is added to indicate that this function is not used in configs where there is no simple dma offset, such as the iommu case.

* powerpc: Check for unsupported relocs when using CONFIG_RELOCATABLETony Breeds2009-09-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When using CONFIG_RELOCATABLE, we build the kernel as a position independent executable. The kernel then uses a little bit of relocation code to relocate itself. That code only deals with R_PPC64_RELATIVE relocations though. If for some reason you use assembly constructs such as LOAD_REG_IMMEDIATE() to load the address of a symbol, you'll generate different kinds of relocations that won't be processed properly and bad things will happen. (We have 2 such bugs today). The perl script tries to filter out "known" bad ones. It's possible that we are missing some in the case of a weak function that nobody implements, we'll see if we get false positive and fix it.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (Thanks to Al Viro for reminding me of this, via Ingo) CPU_MASK_ALL is the (deprecated) "all bits set" cpumask, defined as so: #define CPU_MASK_ALL (cpumask_t) { { ... } } Taking the address of such a temporary is questionable at best, unfortunately 321a8e9d (cpumask: add CPU_MASK_ALL_PTR macro) added CPU_MASK_ALL_PTR: #define CPU_MASK_ALL_PTR (&CPU_MASK_ALL) Which formalizes this practice. One day gcc could bite us over this usage (though we seem to have gotten away with it so far). So replace everywhere which used &CPU_MASK_ALL or CPU_MASK_ALL_PTR with the modern "cpu_all_mask" (a real struct cpumask *), and remove CPU_MASK_ALL_PTR altogether.

This happends to be the case of CPPFLAGS_vmlinux.lds. This is rather unfortunate, as it now causes build failures when using SHELL=/bin/bash to compile, or when bash happens to be used by make (eg when it's /bin/sh) Remove the common definition of CPPFLAGS_vmlinux.lds by pushing relevant stuff to either Makefile.build or the arch specific kernel/Makefile where we build the linker script. This is also nice cleanup as we move the information out where it is used. Notes for the different architectures touched: arm - we use an already exported symbol cris - we use a config symbol aleady available [Not build tested] mips - the jiffies complexity has moved to vmlinux.lds.S where we need it. Added a few variables to CPPFLAGS - they are only used by the linker script.

The use of CROSS_COMPILE was a hack as this really belongs to gcc/binutils and the installkernel script does not change just because we change toolchain. The use of CROSS_COMPILE caused troubles with an upcoming patch that saves CROSS_COMPILE when a kernel is built - it would no longer be installable. [Thanks to Peter Z. for this hint] This patch undos what Ian did in commit: 0f8e2d62fa04441cd12c08ce521e84e5bd3f8a46 ("use ${CROSS_COMPILE}installkernel in arch/*/boot/install.sh") The patch has been lightly tested on x86 only - but all changes looks obvious.
