2007-07-19mm: fault feedback #2Nick Piggin
This patch completes Linus's wish that the fault return codes be made into bit flags, which I agree makes everything nicer. This requires requires all handle_mm_fault callers to be modified (possibly the modifications should go further and do things like fault accounting in handle_mm_fault -- however that would be for another patch).

2007-07-04[ARM] Fix non-page aligned boot time mappingsRussell King
AT91SAM9260 stopped booting with the recent changes to MM initialisation - it was asking for a non-aligned virtual address which caused loops to be non-terminal. Fix this by rounding virtual addresses down, but remember to include the offset in the length, and round the length up to the following page. This means that asking for a mapping of 4K starting at 2K into a page maps two pages as one would expect. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>

2007-05-21Detach sched.h from mm.hAlexey Dobriyan
First thing mm.h does is including sched.h solely for can_do_mlock() inline function which has "current" dereference inside. By dealing with can_do_mlock() mm.h can be detached from sched.h which is good. See below, why. This patch a) removes unconditional inclusion of sched.h from mm.h b) makes can_do_mlock() normal function in mm/mlock.c c) exports can_do_mlock() to not break compilation d) adds sched.h inclusions back to files that were getting it indirectly. e) adds less bloated headers to some files (asm/signal.h, jiffies.h) that were getting them indirectly Net result is: a) mm.h users would get less code to open, read, preprocess, parse, ... if they don't need sched.h b) sched.h stops being dependency for significant number of files: on x86_64 allmodconfig touching sched.h results in recompile of 4083 files, after patch it's only 3744 (-8.3%).

2007-05-17[ARM] ARMv6: add CPU_HAS_ASID configurationRussell King
Presently, we check for the minimum ARM architecture that we're building for to determine whether we need ASID support. This is wrong - if we're going to support a range of CPUs which include ARMv6 or higher, we need the ASID.

2007-05-08[ARM] Fix ASID version switchRussell King
Close a hole in the ASID version switch, particularly the following scenario: CPU0 MM PID CPU1 MM PID idle A pid(A) A idle(lazy tlb) * new asid version triggered by B * B pid(B) A pid(A) * MM A gets new asid version * A idle(lazy tlb) A pid(A) * CPU1 doesn't see the new ASID * The result is that CPU1 continues running with the hardware set for the original (stale) ASID value, but mm->context.id contains the new ASID value. The result is that the next MM fault on CPU1 updates the page table entries, but flush_tlb_page() fails due to wrong ASID. There is a related case with a threaded application is allocated a new ASID on one CPU while another of its threads is running on some different CPU. This scenario is not fixed by this commit.

2007-05-08move die notifier handling to common codeChristoph Hellwig
This patch moves the die notifier handling to common code. Previous various architectures had exactly the same code for it. Note that the new code is compiled unconditionally, this should be understood as an appel to the other architecture maintainer to implement support for it aswell (aka sprinkling a notify_die or two in the proper place) arm had a notifiy_die that did something totally different, I renamed it to arm_notify_die as part of the patch and made it static to the file it's declared and used at. avr32 used to pass slightly less information through this interface and I brought it into line with the other architectures.

2007-05-05[ARM] mm 10: allow memory type to be specified with ioremapRussell King
__ioremap() took a set of page table flags (specifically the cacheable and bufferable bits) to control the mapping type. However, with the advent of ARMv6, this is far too limited. Replace the page table flags with a memory type index, so that the desired attributes can be selected from the mem_type table. Finally, to prevent silent miscompilation due to the differing arguments, rename the __ioremap() and __ioremap_pfn() functions. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>

2007-04-21[ARM] mm 3: separate out supersection mappings, avoid for <4GBRussell King
Catalin Marinas at ARM Ltd says: > The CPU architects in ARM intended supersections only as a way to map > addresses >= 4GB. Supersections are not mandated by the architecture > and there is no easy way to detect their hardware support at run-time > (other than checking for a specific core). From the analysis done in > ARM, there wasn't a clear performance gain by using supersections > rather than sections (no significant improvement in the TLB misses). Therefore, we should avoid using supersections unless there's a real need (iow, we're mapping addresses >= 4GB). This means that we can simplify create_mapping() a bit since we will only use supersection mappings for addresses >= 4GB, which means that the physical, virtual and length must be multiples of the supersection mapping size.
