2008-02-04x86: switch direct mapping setup over to set_pteAndi Kleen
Use set_pte() for setting up the 2MB pages in the direct mapping. Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
2008-02-04x86: fix page-present check in cpa_flush_rangeThomas Gleixner

2008-02-04x86: cpa selftest, skip non present entriesThomas Gleixner
pud and pmd entries in the RAM area might be marked as non present. Do not try to modify them in the selftest. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2008-02-04x86: CPA fix pagetable splitThomas Gleixner
Move the readout of the large entry into the spinlock section to prevent an unlikely but possible race. Mark the pmd/pud entry present after the split. We preserved the non present bit in the new split mapping. Remove the stale gfp_flags double initialization.

2008-02-04x86: rename LARGE_PAGE_SIZE to PMD_PAGE_SIZEAndi Kleen
Fix up all users. Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
2008-02-04x86: cpa, fix lookup_addressThomas Gleixner
lookup_address() returns a wrong level and a wrong pointer to a non existing pte, when pmd or pud entries are marked !present. This happens for example due to boot time mapping of GART into the low memory space. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2008-02-04x86: AMD Athlon X2 hard hang fixIngo Molnar
An Athlon 64 X2 test system showed hard hangs shortly after marking the kernel text read-only, if we tried to preserve largepages and changed the PSE entry from RW to RO. The pagetable code itself is correct, it's the CPU that locked up hard (and not even the NMI watchdog could punch through that hard hang). So be conservative and always do splitups - like we did in the past. Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2008-02-04x86: cpa, preserve large pages if possibleThomas Gleixner
When CPA is called on a range which fits into a large page mapping, avoid to split the page when: 1) There is no change of attributes 2) The range to change is a complete large mapping Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2008-02-04x86: cpa, check if we changed anything and tlb flushing is necessaryThomas Gleixner
Flush tlbs only when there was a real change. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2008-02-04x86: introduce struct cpa_dataThomas Gleixner
The number of arguments which need to be transported is increasing and we want to add flush optimizations and large page preserving. Create struct cpa data and pass a pointer instead of increasing the number of arguments further. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2008-02-04x86: cpa, only flush the cache if the caching attributes have changedAndi Kleen
We only need to flush the caches in cpa() if the the caching attributes have changed. Otherwise only flush the TLBs. This checks the PAT bits too although they are currently not used by the kernel. Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
2008-02-04x86: CPA return early when requested feature is not availableThomas Gleixner
Mask out the not supported bits (e.g. NX). If the clr/set masks are empty after the mask return without changing anything. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2008-02-04x86: no CPA on iounmapThomas Gleixner
When an ioremap is unmapped, do not change the page attributes. There might be another mapping of the same physical address. PAT might detect a conflicting mapping attribute for no good reason. The mapping is removed anyway. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2008-02-04x86: ioremap remove the range check of cpaThomas Gleixner
Now that cpa works on non-direct mappings as well, we can safely remove the range check in ioremap_change_attr(). Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2008-02-04x86: simplify __ioremapThomas Gleixner
Remove tons of castings which make the code hard to read. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2008-02-04x86: CPA use the existing pfn in split as wellThomas Gleixner
When splitting large pages, we ge the pfn from the existing entry instead of calculating it ourself. This removes the last remaining range restriction of the cpa code. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2008-02-04x86: use the pfn from the page when change its attributesArjan van de Ven
When changing the attributes of a pte, we should use the PFN from the existing PTE rather than going through hoops calculating what we think it might have been; this is both fragile and totally unneeded. It also makes it more hairy to call any of these functions on non-direct maps for no good reason whatsover. With this change, __change_page_attr() no longer takes a pfn as argument, which simplifies all the callers.

2008-02-04x86: teach the static_protection function about high mappingsArjan van de Ven
Right now, enforcing that the high mapping of the kernel text doesn't get the NX bit is done deep in the guts of CPA, rather than in the static_protection() function that enforces all other per-arch sanity checks. This patch moves this sanity check into the central static_protection() function instead, and makes it apply ONLY to the kernel text, not to all other areas in the high mapping.

2008-02-01suspend: cleanup reference to swsusp_pg_dir[]Rafael J. Wysocki
swsusp_pg_dir[] is used for suspend, but not for hibernation. clean-up the ifdefs which worked by accident, while implying the opposite. Delete the __nosavedata, which also implied the opposite.

2008-01-30x86: use the same pgd_list for PAE and 64-bitJeremy Fitzhardinge

2008-01-30x86: don't special-case pmd allocations as muchJeremy Fitzhardinge
In x86 PAE mode, stop treating pmds as a special case. Previously they were always allocated and freed with the pgd. The modifies the code to be the same as 64-bit mode, where they are allocated on demand. This is a step on the way to unifying 32/64-bit pagetable allocation as much as possible. There is a complicating wart, however. When you install a new reference to a pmd in the pgd, the processor isn't guaranteed to see it unless you reload cr3. Since reloading cr3 also has the side-effect of flushing the tlb, this is an expense that we want to avoid whereever possible. This patch simply avoids reloading cr3 unless the update is to the current pagetable. Later patches will optimise this further.

2008-01-30x86: shrink some ifdefs in fault.cHarvey Harrison
The change from current to tsk in do_page_fault is safe as this is set at the very beginning of the function. Removes a likely() annotation from the 64-bit version, this could have instead been added to 32-bit.

2008-01-30x86: ignore spurious faultsJeremy Fitzhardinge
When changing a kernel page from RO->RW, it's OK to leave stale TLB entries around, since doing a global flush is expensive and they pose no security problem. They can, however, generate a spurious fault, which we should catch and simply return from (which will have the side-effect of reloading the TLB to the current PTE). This can occur when running under Xen, because it frequently changes kernel pages from RW->RO->RW to implement Xen's pagetable semantics. It could also occur when using CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC, since it avoids doing a global TLB flush after changing page permissions.

2008-01-30x86: remove nx_enabled from fault.cHarvey Harrison
On !PAE 32-bit, _PAGE_NX will be 0, making is_prefetch always return early. The test is sufficient on PAE as __supported_pte_mask is updated in the same places as nx_enabled in init_32.c which also takes disable_nx into account.
