2008-07-08x86/cpa: use an undefined PTE bit for testing CPAJeremy Fitzhardinge

2008-07-08x86_32: remove __PAGE_KERNEL(_EXEC)Jeremy Fitzhardinge
From: Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy.fitzhardinge@citrix.com> Older x86-32 processors do not support global mappings (PGD), so must only use it if the processor supports it. The _PAGE_KERNEL* flags always have _PAGE_KERNEL set, since logically we always want it set. This is OK even on processors which do not support PGD, since all _PAGE flags are masked with __supported_pte_mask before being turned into a real in-pagetable pte. On 32-bit systems, __supported_pte_mask is initialized to not contain _PAGE_GLOBAL, and it is then added if the CPU is found to support it. The x86-32 code used to use __PAGE_KERNEL/__PAGE_KERNEL_EXEC for this purpose, but they're now redundant and can be removed.

2008-07-08x86, 64-bit: adjust mapping of physical pagetables to work with XenJeremy Fitzhardinge
This makes a few of changes to the construction of the initial pagetables to work better with paravirt_ops/Xen. The main areas are: 1. Support non-PSE mapping of memory, since Xen doesn't currently allow 2M pages to be mapped in guests. 2. Make sure that the ioremap alias of all pages are dropped before attaching the new page to the pagetable. This avoids having writable aliases of pagetable pages. 3. Preserve existing pagetable entries, rather than overwriting. Its possible that a fair amount of pagetable has already been constructed, so reuse what's already in place rather than ignoring and overwriting it. The algorithm relies on the invariant that any page which is part of the kernel pagetable is itself mapped in the linear memory area. This way, it can avoid using ioremap on a pagetable page. The invariant holds because it maps memory from low to high addresses, and also allocates memory from low to high. Each allocated page can map at least 2M of address space, so the mapped area will always progress much faster than the allocated area. It relies on the early boot code mapping enough pages to get started.

2008-07-08x86: preallocate and prepopulate separatelyJeremy Fitzhardinge
Jan Beulich points out that vmalloc_sync_all() assumes that the kernel's pmd is always expected to be present in the pgd. The current pgd construction code will add the pgd to the pgd_list before its pmds have been pre-populated, thereby making it visible to vmalloc_sync_all(). However, because pgd_prepopulate_pmd also does the allocation, it may block and cannot be done under spinlock. The solution is to preallocate the pmds out of the spinlock, then populate them while holding the pgd_list lock. This patch also pulls the pmd preallocation and mop-up functions out to be common, assuming that the compiler will generate no code for them when PREALLOCTED_PMDS is 0. Also, there's no need for pgd_ctor to clear the pgd again, since it's allocated as a zeroed page.

2008-07-08x86: simplify vmalloc_sync_allJeremy Fitzhardinge
vmalloc_sync_all() is only called from register_die_notifier and alloc_vm_area. Neither is on any performance-critical paths, so vmalloc_sync_all() itself is not on any hot paths. Given that the optimisations in vmalloc_sync_all add a fair amount of code and complexity, and are fairly hard to evaluate for correctness, it's better to just remove them to simplify the code rather than worry about its absolute performance.

2008-07-08build: add __page_aligned_data and __page_aligned_bssJeremy Fitzhardinge
Making a variable page-aligned by using __attribute__((section(".data.page_aligned"))) is fragile because if sizeof(variable) is not also a multiple of page size, it leaves variables in the remainder of the section unaligned. This patch introduces two new qualifiers, __page_aligned_data and __page_aligned_bss to set the section *and* the alignment of variables. This makes page-aligned variables more robust because the linker will make sure they're aligned properly. Unfortunately it requires *all* page-aligned data to use these macros...

2008-07-08x86: cleanup early per cpu variables/accesses v4Mike Travis
* Introduce a new PER_CPU macro called "EARLY_PER_CPU". This is used by some per_cpu variables that are initialized and accessed before there are per_cpu areas allocated. ["Early" in respect to per_cpu variables is "earlier than the per_cpu areas have been setup".] This patchset adds these new macros: DEFINE_EARLY_PER_CPU(_type, _name, _initvalue) EXPORT_EARLY_PER_CPU_SYMBOL(_name) DECLARE_EARLY_PER_CPU(_type, _name) early_per_cpu_ptr(_name) early_per_cpu_map(_name, _idx) early_per_cpu(_name, _cpu) The DEFINE macro defines the per_cpu variable as well as the early map and pointer. It also initializes the per_cpu variable and map elements to "_initvalue". The early_* macros provide access to the initial map (usually setup during system init) and the early pointer. This pointer is initialized to point to the early map but is then NULL'ed when the actual per_cpu areas are setup. After that the per_cpu variable is the correct access to the variable. The early_per_cpu() macro is not very efficient but does show how to access the variable if you have a function that can be called both "early" and "late". It tests the early ptr to be NULL, and if not then it's still valid. Otherwise, the per_cpu variable is used instead: #define early_per_cpu(_name, _cpu) \ (early_per_cpu_ptr(_name) ? \ early_per_cpu_ptr(_name)[_cpu] : \ per_cpu(_name, _cpu)) A better method is to actually check the pointer manually. In the case below, numa_set_node can be called both "early" and "late": void __cpuinit numa_set_node(int cpu, int node) { int *cpu_to_node_map = early_per_cpu_ptr(x86_cpu_to_node_map); if (cpu_to_node_map) cpu_to_node_map[cpu] = node; else per_cpu(x86_cpu_to_node_map, cpu) = node; } * Add a flag "arch_provides_topology_pointers" that indicates pointers to topology cpumask_t maps are available. Otherwise, use the function returning the cpumask_t value. This is useful if cpumask_t set size is very large to avoid copying data on to/off of the stack. * The coverage of CONFIG_DEBUG_PER_CPU_MAPS has been increased while the non-debug case has been optimized a bit. * Remove an unreferenced compiler warning in drivers/base/topology.c * Clean up #ifdef in setup.c For inclusion into sched-devel/latest tree.
