Currently allocations are very constrained for 32-bit processes.
It grows down-up from 0x70000000 to 0xf0000000 which gives about
2GB of stack + dynamic mmap() space.
So support the top-down method, and we need to override the
generic helper function in order to deal with D-cache coloring.
With these changes I was able to squeeze out a mmap() just over
3.6GB in size in a 32-bit process.

This is good for up to %50 performance improvement of some test cases.
The problem has been the race conditions, and hopefully I've plugged
them all up here.
1) There was a serious race in switch_mm() wrt. lazy TLB
switching to and from kernel threads.
We could erroneously skip a tsb_context_switch() and thus
use a stale TSB across a TSB grow event.
There is a big comment now in that function describing
exactly how it can happen.
2) All code paths that do something with the TSB need to be
guarded with the mm->context.lock spinlock. This makes
page table flushing paths properly synchronize with both
TSB growing and TLB context changes.
3) TSB growing events are moved to the end of successful fault
processing. Previously it was in update_mmu_cache() but
that is deadlock prone. At the end of do_sparc64_fault()
we hold no spinlocks that could deadlock the TSB grow
sequence. We also have dropped the address space semaphore.
While we're here, add prefetching to the copy_tsb() routine
and put it in assembler into the tsb.S file. This piece of
code is quite time critical.
There are some small negative side effects to this code which
can be improved upon. In particular we grab the mm->context.lock
even for the tsb insert done by update_mmu_cache() now and that's
a bit excessive. We can get rid of that locking, and the same
lock taking in flush_tsb_user(), by disabling PSTATE_IE around
the whole operation including the capturing of the tsb pointer
and tsb_nentries value. That would work because anyone growing
the TSB won't free up the old TSB until all cpus respond to the
TSB change cross call.
I'm not quite so confident in that optimization to put it in
right now, but eventually we might be able to and the description
is here for reference.
This code seems very solid now. It passes several parallel GCC
bootstrap builds, and our favorite "nut cruncher" stress test which is
a full "make -j8192" build of a "make allmodconfig" kernel. That puts
about 256 processes on each cpu's run queue, makes lots of process cpu
migrations occur, causes lots of page table and TLB flushing activity,
incurs many context version number changes, and it swaps the machine
real far out to disk even though there is 16GB of ram on this test
system. :-)

The page->flags manipulations done by the D-cache dirty
state tracking was broken because the constants were not
marked with "UL" to make them 64-bit, which means we were
clobbering the upper 32-bits of page->flags all the time.
This doesn't jive well with sparsemem which stores the
section and indexing information in the top 32-bits of
page->flags.
This is yet another sparc64 bug which has been with us
forever.
While we're here, tidy up some things in bootmem_init()
and paginig_init():
1) Pass min_low_pfn to init_bootmem_node(), it's identical
to (phys_base >> PAGE_SHIFT) but we should use consistent
with the variable names we print in CONFIG_BOOTMEM_DEBUG
2) max_mapnr, although no longer used, was being set
inaccurately, we shouldn't subtract pfn_base any more.
3) All the games with phys_base in the zones_*[] arrays
we pass to free_area_init_node() are no longer necessary.

There were several bugs in the SUN4V cpu mondo dispatch code.
In fact, if we ever got a EWOULDBLOCK or other error from
the hypervisor call, we'd potentially send a cpu mondo multiple
times to the same cpu and even worse we could loop until the
timeout resending the same mondo over and over to such cpus.
So let's bulletproof this thing as follows:
1) Implement cpu_mondo_send() and cpu_state() hypervisor calls
in arch/sparc64/kernel/entry.S, add prototypes to asm/hypervisor.h
2) Don't build and update the cpulist using inline functions, this
was causing the cpu mask to not get updated in the caller.
3) Disable interrupts during the entire mondo send, otherwise our
cpu list and/or mondo block could get overwritten if we take
an interrupt and do a cpu mondo send on the current cpu.
4) Check for all possible error return types from the cpu_mondo_send()
hypervisor call. In particular:
HV_EOK) Our work is done, all cpus have received the mondo.
HV_CPUERROR) One or more of the cpus in the cpu list we passed
to the hypervisor are in error state. Use cpu_state()
calls over the entries in the cpu list to see which
ones. Record them in "error_mask" and report this
after we are done sending the mondo to cpus which are
not in error state.
HV_EWOULDBLOCK) We need to keep trying.
Any other error we consider fatal, we report the event and exit
immediately.
5) We only timeout if forward progress is not made. Forward progress
is defined as having at least one cpu get the mondo successfully
in a given cpu_mondo_send() call. Otherwise we bump a counter
and delay a little. If the counter hits a limit, we signal an
error and report the event.
Also, smp_call_function_mask() error handling reports the number
of cpus incorrectly.

The sibling cpu bringup is extremely fragile. We can only
perform the most basic calls until we take over the trap
table from the firmware/hypervisor on the new cpu.
This means no accesses to %g4, %g5, %g6 since those can't be
TLB translated without our trap handlers.
In order to achieve this:
1) Change sun4v_init_mondo_queues() so that it can operate in
several modes.
It can allocate the queues, or install them in the current
processor, or both.
The boot cpu does both in it's call early on.
Later, the boot cpu allocates the sibling cpu queue, starts
the sibling cpu, then the sibling cpu loads them in.
2) init_cur_cpu_trap() is changed to take the current_thread_info()
as an argument instead of reading %g6 directly on the current
cpu.
3) Create a trampoline stack for the sibling cpus. We do our basic
kernel calls using this stack, which is locked into the kernel
image, then go to our proper thread stack after taking over the
trap table.
4) While we are in this delicate startup state, we put 0xdeadbeef
into %g4/%g5/%g6 in order to catch accidental accesses.
5) On the final prom_set_trap_table*() call, we put &init_thread_union
into %g6. This is a hack to make prom_world(0) work. All that
wants to do is restore the %asi register using
get_thread_current_ds().
Longer term we should just do the OBP calls to set the trap table by
hand just like we do for everything else. This would avoid that silly
prom_world(0) issue, then we can remove the init_thread_union hack.

There are several tricky races involved with growing the TSB. So just
use base-size TSBs for user contexts and we can revisit enabling this
later.
One part of the SMP problems is that tsb_context_switch() can see
partially updated TSB configuration state if tsb_grow() is running in
parallel. That's easily solved with a seqlock taken as a writer by
tsb_grow() and taken as a reader to capture all the TSB config state
in tsb_context_switch().
Then there is flush_tsb_user() running in parallel with a tsb_grow().
In theory we could take the seqlock as a reader there too, and just
resample the TSB pointer and reflush but that looks really ugly.
Lastly, I believe there is a case with threads that results in a TSB
entry lock bit being set spuriously which will cause the next access
to that TSB entry to wedge the cpu (since the TSB entry lock bit will
never clear). It's either copy_tsb() or some bug elsewhere in the TSB
assembly.

This way we don't need to lock the TSB into the TLB.
The trick is that every TSB load/store is registered into
a special instruction patch section. The default uses
virtual addresses, and the patch instructions use physical
address load/stores.
We can't do this on all chips because only cheetah+ and later
have the physical variant of the atomic quad load.

UltraSPARC has special sets of global registers which are switched to
for certain trap types. There is one set for MMU related traps, one
set of Interrupt Vector processing, and another set (called the
Alternate globals) for all other trap types.
For what seems like forever we've hard coded the values in some of
these trap registers. Some examples include:
1) Interrupt Vector global %g6 holds current processors interrupt
work struct where received interrupts are managed for IRQ handler
dispatch.
2) MMU global %g7 holds the base of the page tables of the currently
active address space.
3) Alternate global %g6 held the current_thread_info() value.
Such hardcoding has resulted in some serious issues in many areas.
There are some code sequences where having another register available
would help clean up the implementation. Taking traps such as
cross-calls from the OBP firmware requires some trick code sequences
wherein we have to save away and restore all of the special sets of
global registers when we enter/exit OBP.
We were also using the IMMU TSB register on SMP to hold the per-cpu
area base address, which doesn't work any longer now that we actually
use the TSB facility of the cpu.
The implementation is pretty straight forward. One tricky bit is
getting the current processor ID as that is different on different cpu
variants. We use a stub with a fancy calling convention which we
patch at boot time. The calling convention is that the stub is
branched to and the (PC - 4) to return to is in register %g1. The cpu
number is left in %g6. This stub can be invoked by using the
__GET_CPUID macro.
We use an array of per-cpu trap state to store the current thread and
physical address of the current address space's page tables. The
TRAP_LOAD_THREAD_REG loads %g6 with the current thread from this
table, it uses __GET_CPUID and also clobbers %g1.
TRAP_LOAD_IRQ_WORK is used by the interrupt vector processing to load
the current processor's IRQ software state into %g6. It also uses
__GET_CPUID and clobbers %g1.
Finally, TRAP_LOAD_PGD_PHYS loads the physical address base of the
current address space's page tables into %g7, it clobbers %g1 and uses
__GET_CPUID.
Many refinements are possible, as well as some tuning, with this stuff
in place.

We now use the TSB hardware assist features of the UltraSPARC
MMUs.
SMP is currently knowingly broken, we need to find another place
to store the per-cpu base pointers. We hid them away in the TSB
base register, and that obviously will not work any more :-)
Another known broken case is non-8KB base page size.
Also noticed that flush_tlb_all() is not referenced anywhere, only
the internal __flush_tlb_all() (local cpu only) is used by the
sparc64 port, so we can get rid of flush_tlb_all().
The kernel gets it's own 8KB TSB (swapper_tsb) and each address space
gets it's own private 8K TSB. Later we can add code to dynamically
increase the size of per-process TSB as the RSS grows. An 8KB TSB is
good enough for up to about a 4MB RSS, after which the TSB starts to
incur many capacity and conflict misses.
We even accumulate OBP translations into the kernel TSB.
Another area for refinement is large page size support. We could use
a secondary address space TSB to handle those.

Here is a series of patches which introduce in total 13 new system calls
which take a file descriptor/filename pair instead of a single file
name. These functions, openat etc, have been discussed on numerous
occasions. They are needed to implement race-free filesystem traversal,
they are necessary to implement a virtual per-thread current working
directory (think multi-threaded backup software), etc.
We have in glibc today implementations of the interfaces which use the
/proc/self/fd magic. But this code is rather expensive. Here are some
results (similar to what Jim Meyering posted before).
The test creates a deep directory hierarchy on a tmpfs filesystem. Then
rm -fr is used to remove all directories. Without syscall support I get
this:
real 0m31.921s
user 0m0.688s
sys 0m31.234s
With syscall support the results are much better:
real 0m20.699s
user 0m0.536s
sys 0m20.149s
The interfaces are for obvious reasons currently not much used. But they'll
be used. coreutils (and Jeff's posixutils) are already using them.
Furthermore, code like ftw/fts in libc (maybe even glob) will also start using
them. I expect a patch to make follow soon. Every program which is walking
the filesystem tree will benefit.

Ensure a consistent value is read from the STICK register by ensuring
that both high and low are read without high changing due to a roll
over of the low register.
Various Debian/SPARC users (myself include) have noticed problems with
Hummingbird based systems. The symptoms are that the system time is
seen to jump forward 3 days, 6 hours, 11 minutes give or take a few
seconds. In many cases the system then hangs some time afterwards.
I've spotted a race condition in the code to read the STICK register.
I could not work out why 3d, 6h, 11m is important but guess that it is
due to the 2^32 jump of STICK (forwards on one read and then the next
read will seem to be backwards) during a timer interrupt. I'm guessing
that a change of -2^32 will get converted to a large unsigned
increment after the arithmetic manipulation between STICK,
nanoseconds, jiffies etc.
I did a test where I modified __hbird_read_stick to artificially
inject rollover faults forcefully every few seconds. With this I saw
the clock jump over 6 times in 12 hours compared to once every month
or so.

just leak away.

to flag the special areas where the ptes may have no struct page, or if they
have then it's not to be touched. Replace most instances of VM_RESERVED in
core mm by VM_UNPAGED. Force it on in remap_pfn_range, and the sparc and

Revert addition of VM_RESERVED to powerpc vdso, it's not needed there. Is it

vmas not to be merged, and areas not to be core dumped; but could probably be
eliminated later (the drivers are probably specifying it because in 2.4 it
kept swapout off the vma, but in 2.6 we work from the LRU, which these pages
don't get on).

Make some changes to the NEED_RESCHED and POLLING_NRFLAG to reduce
confusion, and make their semantics rigid. Improves efficiency of
resched_task and some cpu_idle routines.
* In resched_task:
- TIF_NEED_RESCHED is only cleared with the task's runqueue lock held,
and as we hold it during resched_task, then there is no need for an
atomic test and set there. The only other time this should be set is
when the task's quantum expires, in the timer interrupt - this is
protected against because the rq lock is irq-safe.
- If TIF_NEED_RESCHED is set, then we don't need to do anything. It
won't get unset until the task get's schedule()d off.
- If we are running on the same CPU as the task we resched, then set
TIF_NEED_RESCHED and no further action is required.
- If we are running on another CPU, and TIF_POLLING_NRFLAG is *not* set
after TIF_NEED_RESCHED has been set, then we need to send an IPI.
Using these rules, we are able to remove the test and set operation in
resched_task, and make clear the previously vague semantics of
POLLING_NRFLAG.
* In idle routines:
- Enter cpu_idle with preempt disabled. When the need_resched() condition
becomes true, explicitly call schedule(). This makes things a bit clearer
(IMO), but haven't updated all architectures yet.
- Many do a test and clear of TIF_NEED_RESCHED for some reason. According
to the resched_task rules, this isn't needed (and actually breaks the
assumption that TIF_NEED_RESCHED is only cleared with the runqueue lock
held). So remove that. Generally one less locked memory op when switching
to the idle thread.
- Many idle routines clear TIF_POLLING_NRFLAG, and only set it in the inner
most polling idle loops. The above resched_task semantics allow it to be
set until before the last time need_resched() is checked before going into
a halt requiring interrupt wakeup.
Many idle routines simply never enter such a halt, and so POLLING_NRFLAG
can be always left set, completely eliminating resched IPIs when rescheduling
the idle task.
POLLING_NRFLAG width can be increased, to reduce the chance of resched IPIs.

Run idle threads with preempt disabled.
Also corrected a bugs in arm26's cpu_idle (make it actually call schedule()).
How did it ever work before?
Might fix the CPU hotplugging hang which Nigel Cunningham noted.
We think the bug hits if the idle thread is preempted after checking
need_resched() and before going to sleep, then the CPU offlined.
After calling stop_machine_run, the CPU eventually returns from preemption and
into the idle thread and goes to sleep. The CPU will continue executing
previous idle and have no chance to call play_dead.
By disabling preemption until we are ready to explicitly schedule, this bug is
fixed and the idle threads generally become more robust.

sparc64 is unique among architectures in taking the page_table_lock in
its context switch (well, cris does too, but erroneously, and it's not
yet SMP anyway).
This seems to be a private affair between switch_mm and activate_mm,
using page_table_lock as a per-mm lock, without any relation to its uses
elsewhere. That's fine, but comment it as such; and unlock sooner in
switch_mm, more like in activate_mm (preemption is disabled here).
There is a block of "if (0)"ed code in smp_flush_tlb_pending which would
have liked to rely on the page_table_lock, in switch_mm and elsewhere;
but its comment explains how dup_mmap's flush_tlb_mm defeated it. And
though that could have been changed at any time over the past few years,
now the chance vanishes as we push the page_table_lock downwards, and
perhaps split it per page table page. Just delete that block of code.
Which leaves the mysterious spin_unlock_wait(&oldmm->page_table_lock)
in kernel/fork.c copy_mm. Textual analysis (supported by Nick Piggin)
suggests that the comment was written by DaveM, and that it relates to
the defeated approach in the sparc64 smp_flush_tlb_pending. Just delete
this block too.

The following set of patches are aimed at improving kprobes scalability. We
currently serialize kprobe registration, unregistration and handler execution
using a single spinlock - kprobe_lock.
With these changes, kprobe handlers can run without any locks held. It also
allows for simultaneous kprobe handler executions on different processors as
we now track kprobe execution on a per processor basis. It is now necessary
that the handlers be re-entrant since handlers can run concurrently on
multiple processors.
All changes have been tested on i386, ia64, ppc64 and x86_64, while sparc64
has been compile tested only.
The patches can be viewed as 3 logical chunks:
patch 1: Reorder preempt_(dis/en)able calls
patches 2-7: Introduce per_cpu data areas to track kprobe execution
patches 8-9: Use RCU to synchronize kprobe (un)registration and handler
execution.

Remove PageReserved() calls from core code by tightening VM_RESERVED
handling in mm/ to cover PageReserved functionality.
PageReserved special casing is removed from get_page and put_page.
All setting and clearing of PageReserved is retained, and it is now flagged
in the page_alloc checks to help ensure we don't introduce any refcount
based freeing of Reserved pages.
MAP_PRIVATE, PROT_WRITE of VM_RESERVED regions is tentatively being
deprecated. We never completely handled it correctly anyway, and is be
reintroduced in future if required (Hugh has a proof of concept).
Once PageReserved() calls are removed from kernel/power/swsusp.c, and all
arch/ and driver code, the Set and Clear calls, and the PG_reserved bit can
be trivially removed.
Last real user of PageReserved is swsusp, which uses PageReserved to
determine whether a struct page points to valid memory or not. This still
needs to be addressed (a generic page_is_ram() should work).
A last caveat: the ZERO_PAGE is now refcounted and managed with rmap (and
thus mapcounted and count towards shared rss). These writes to the struct
page could cause excessive cacheline bouncing on big systems. There are a
number of ways this could be addressed if it is an issue.

zap_pte_range has been counting the pages it frees in tlb->freed, then
tlb_finish_mmu has used that to update the mm's rss. That got stranger when I
added anon_rss, yet updated it by a different route; and stranger when rss and
anon_rss became mm_counters with special access macros. And it would no
longer be viable if we're relying on page_table_lock to stabilize the
mm_counter, but calling tlb_finish_mmu outside that lock.
Remove the mmu_gather's freed field, let tlb_finish_mmu stick to its own
business, just decrement the rss mm_counter in zap_pte_range (yes, there was
some point to batching the update, and a subsequent patch restores that). And
forget the anal paranoia of first reading the counter to avoid going negative
- if rss does go negative, just fix that bug.
Remove the mmu_gather's flushes and avoided_flushes from arm and arm26: no use
was being made of them. But arm26 alone was actually using the freed, in the
way some others use need_flush: give it a need_flush. arm26 seems to prefer

The sequence to move over to the Linux trap tables from
the firmware ones needs to be more air tight. It turns
out that to be %100 safe we do need to be able to translate
OBP mappings in our TLB miss handlers early.
In order not to eat up a lot of kernel image memory with
static page tables, just use the translations array in
the OBP TLB miss handlers. That solves the bulk of the
problem.
Furthermore, to make sure the OBP TLB miss path will work
even before the fixed MMU globals are loaded, explicitly
load %g1 to TLB_SFSR at the beginning of the i-TLB and
d-TLB miss handlers.
To ease the OBP TLB miss walking of the prom_trans[] array,
we sort it then delete all of the non-OBP entries in there
(for example, there are entries for the kernel image itself
which we're not interested in at all).
We also save about 32K of kernel image size with this change.
Not a bad side effect :-)
There are still some reasons why trampoline.S can't use the
setup_trap_table() yet. The most noteworthy are:
1) OBP boots secondary processors with non-bias'd stack for
some reason. This is easily fixed by using a small bootup
stack in the kernel image explicitly for this purpose.
2) Doing a firmware call via the normal C call prom_set_trap_table()
goes through the whole OBP enter/exit sequence that saves and
restores OBP and Linux kernel state in the MMUs. This path
unfortunately does a "flush %g6" while loading up the OBP locked
TLB entries for the firmware call.
If we setup the %g6 in the trampoline.S code properly, that
is in the PAGE_OFFSET linear mapping, but we're not on the
kernel trap table yet so those addresses won't translate properly.
One idea is to do a by-hand firmware call like we do in the
early bootup code and elsewhere here in trampoline.S But this
fails as well, as aparently the secondary processors are not
booted with OBP's special locked TLB entries loaded. These
are necessary for the firwmare to processes TLB misses correctly
up until the point where we take over the trap table.
This does need to be resolved at some point.

On the boot processor, we need to do the move onto the Linux trap
table a little bit differently else we'll take unhandlable faults in
the firmware address space.
Previously we would do the following:
1) Disable PSTATE_IE in %pstate.
2) Set %tba by hand to sparc64_ttable_tl0
3) Initialize alternate, mmu, and interrupt global
trap registers.
4) Call prom_set_traptable()
That doesn't work very well actually with the way we boot the kernel
VM these days. It worked by luck on many systems because the firmware
accesses for the prom_set_traptable() call happened to be loaded into
the TLB already, something we cannot assume.
So the new scheme is this:
1) Clear PSTATE_IE in %pstate and set %pil to 15
2) Call prom_set_traptable()
3) Initialize alternate, mmu, and interrupt global
trap registers.
and this works quite well. This sequence has been moved into a
callable function in assembler named setup-trap_table(). The idea is
that eventually trampoline.S can use this code as well. That isn't
possible currently due to some complications, but eventually we should
be able to do it.
