Fix up conflict with the generic irq_work changes in arch/powerpc/kernel/time.c
On Freescale parts typically have TLB array for large mappings that we can
bolt the linear mapping into. We utilize the code that already exists
on PPC32 on the 64-bit side to setup the linear mapping to be cover by
bolted TLB entries. We utilize a quarter of the variable size TLB array
for this purpose.
Additionally, we limit the amount of memory to what we can cover via
bolted entries so we don't get secondary faults in the TLB miss
handlers. We should fix this limitation in the future.

Update setup_page_sizes() to support for a MMU v1.0 FSL style MMU
implementation. In such a processor, we don't have TLB0PS or EPTCFG
registers (and access to these registers may cause exceptions). We need
to parse the older format of TLBnCFG for page size support. Additionaly,
assume since we are an FSL implementation that we have 2 TLB arrays and
the second array contains the variable size pages.

There exists a four line chunk of code, which when configured for
64 bit address space, can incorrectly set certain page flags during
the TLB creation. It turns out that this is code which isn't used,
but might still serve a purpose. Since it isn't obvious why it exists
or why it causes problems, the below description covers both in detail.
For powerpc bootstrap, the physical memory (at most 768M), is mapped
into the kernel space via the following path:
MMU_init()
|
+ adjust_total_lowmem()
|
+ map_mem_in_cams()
|
+ settlbcam(i, virt, phys, cam_sz, PAGE_KERNEL_X, 0);
On settlbcam(), the kernel will create TLB entries according to the flag,
PAGE_KERNEL_X.
settlbcam()
{
...
TLBCAM[index].MAS1 = MAS1_VALID
| MAS1_IPROT | MAS1_TSIZE(tsize) | MAS1_TID(pid);
^
These entries cannot be invalidated by the
kernel since MAS1_IPROT is set on TLB property.
...
if (flags & _PAGE_USER) {
TLBCAM[index].MAS3 |= MAS3_UX | MAS3_UR;
TLBCAM[index].MAS3 |= ((flags & _PAGE_RW) ? MAS3_UW : 0);
}
For classic BookE (flags & _PAGE_USER) is 'zero' so it's fine.
But on boards like the the Freescale P4080, we want to support 36-bit
physical address on it. So the following options may be set:
CONFIG_FSL_BOOKE=y
CONFIG_PTE_64BIT=y
CONFIG_PHYS_64BIT=y
As a result, boards like the P4080 will introduce PTE format as Book3E.
As per the file: arch/powerpc/include/asm/pgtable-ppc32.h
* #elif defined(CONFIG_FSL_BOOKE) && defined(CONFIG_PTE_64BIT)
* #include <asm/pte-book3e.h>
So PAGE_KERNEL_X is __pgprot(_PAGE_BASE | _PAGE_KERNEL_RWX) and the
book3E version of _PAGE_KERNEL_RWX is defined with:
(_PAGE_BAP_SW | _PAGE_BAP_SR | _PAGE_DIRTY | _PAGE_BAP_SX)
Note the _PAGE_BAP_SR, which is also defined in the book3E _PAGE_USER:
#define _PAGE_USER (_PAGE_BAP_UR | _PAGE_BAP_SR) /* Can be read */
So the possibility exists to wrongly assign the user MAS3_U<RWX> bits
to kernel (PAGE_KERNEL_X) address space via the following code fragment:
if (flags & _PAGE_USER) {
TLBCAM[index].MAS3 |= MAS3_UX | MAS3_UR;
TLBCAM[index].MAS3 |= ((flags & _PAGE_RW) ? MAS3_UW : 0);
}
Here is a dump of the TLB info from Simics with the above code present:
------
L2 TLB1
GT SSS UUU V I
Row Logical Physical SS TLPID TID WIMGE XWR XWR F P V
----- ----------------- ------------------- -- ----- ----- ----- --- --- - - -
0 c0000000-cfffffff 000000000-00fffffff 00 0 0 M XWR XWR 0 1 1
1 d0000000-dfffffff 010000000-01fffffff 00 0 0 M XWR XWR 0 1 1
2 e0000000-efffffff 020000000-02fffffff 00 0 0 M XWR XWR 0 1 1
Actually this conditional code was used for two legacy functions:
1: support KGDB to set break point.
KGDB already dropped this; now uses its core write to set break point.
2: io_block_mapping() to create TLB in segmentation size (not PAGE_SIZE)
for device IO space.
This use case is also removed from the latest PowerPC kernel.
However, there may still be a use case for it in the future, like
large user pages, so we can't remove it entirely. As an alternative,
we match on all bits of _PAGE_USER instead of just any bits, so the
case where just _PAGE_BAP_SR is set can't sneak through.
With this done, the TLB appears without U having XWR as below:
-------
L2 TLB1
GT SSS UUU V I
Row Logical Physical SS TLPID TID WIMGE XWR XWR F P V
----- ----------------- ------------------- -- ----- ----- ----- --- --- - - -

We need to round memory regions correctly -- specifically, we need to
round reserved region in the more expansive direction (lower limit
down, upper limit up) whereas usable memory regions need to be rounded
in the more restrictive direction (lower limit up, upper limit down).
This introduces two set of inlines:
memblock_region_memory_base_pfn()
memblock_region_memory_end_pfn()
memblock_region_reserved_base_pfn()
memblock_region_reserved_end_pfn()
Although they are antisymmetric (and therefore are technically
duplicates) the use of the different inlines explicitly documents the
programmer's intention.
The lack of proper rounding caused a bug on ARM, which was then found
to also affect other architectures.

kunmap_atomic() is currently at level -4 on Rusty's "Hard To Misuse"
list[1] ("Follow common convention and you'll get it wrong"), except in
some architectures when CONFIG_DEBUG_HIGHMEM is set[2][3].
kunmap() takes a pointer to a struct page; kunmap_atomic(), however, takes
takes a pointer to within the page itself. This seems to once in a while
trip people up (the convention they are following is the one from
kunmap()).
Make it much harder to misuse, by moving it to level 9 on Rusty's list[4]
("The compiler/linker won't let you get it wrong"). This is done by
refusing to build if the type of its first argument is a pointer to a
struct page.
The real kunmap_atomic() is renamed to kunmap_atomic_notypecheck()
(which is what you would call in case for some strange reason calling it
with a pointer to a struct page is not incorrect in your code).
The previous version of this patch was compile tested on x86-64.
[1] http://ozlabs.org/~rusty/index.cgi/tech/2008-04-01.html
[2] In these cases, it is at level 5, "Do it right or it will always
break at runtime."
[3] At least mips and powerpc look very similar, and sparc also seems to
share a common ancestor with both; there seems to be quite some
degree of copy-and-paste coding here. The include/asm/highmem.h file
for these three archs mention x86 CPUs at its top.

[5] As an aside, could someone tell me why mn10300 uses unsigned long as
the first parameter of kunmap_atomic() instead of void *?

The RMA (RMO is a misnomer) is a concept specific to ppc64 (in fact
server ppc64 though I hijack it on embedded ppc64 for similar purposes)
and represents the area of memory that can be accessed in real mode
(aka with MMU off), or on embedded, from the exception vectors (which
is bolted in the TLB) which pretty much boils down to the same thing.
We take that out of the generic MEMBLOCK data structure and move it into
arch/powerpc where it belongs, renaming it to "RMA" while at it.

This introduce memblock.current_limit which is used to limit allocations
from memblock_alloc() or memblock_alloc_base(..., MEMBLOCK_ALLOC_ACCESSIBLE).
The old MEMBLOCK_ALLOC_ANYWHERE changes value from 0 to ~(u64)0 and can still
be used with memblock_alloc_base() to allocate really anywhere.
It is -no-longer- cropped to MEMBLOCK_REAL_LIMIT which disappears.
Note to archs: I'm leaving the default limit to MEMBLOCK_ALLOC_ANYWHERE. I
strongly recommend that you ensure that you set an appropriate limit
during boot in order to guarantee that an memblock_alloc() at any time
results in something that is accessible with a simple __va().
The reason is that a subsequent patch will introduce the ability for
the array to resize itself by reallocating itself. The MEMBLOCK core will
honor the current limit when performing those allocations.

There's a couple of nasty bugs lurking in our huge page hashing code.
First, we don't check the access permission atomically with setting
the _PAGE_BUSY bit, which means that the PTE value we end up using
for the hashing might be different than the one we have checked
the access permissions for.
We've seen cases where that leads us to try to use an invalidated
PTE for hashing, causing all sort of "interesting" issues.
Then, we also failed to set _PAGE_DIRTY on a write access.
Finally, a minor tweak but we should return 0 when we find the
PTE busy, in order to just re-execute the access, rather than 1
which means going to do_page_fault().

Instead of adding _PAGE_PRESENT to the access permission mask
in each low level routine independently, we add it once from
hash_page().
We also move the preliminary access check (the racy one before
the PTE is locked) up so it applies to the huge page case. This
duplicates code in __hash_page_huge() which we'll remove in a
subsequent patch to fix a race in there.

If the hypervisor gives us an error on a hugepage insert we panic. The
normal page code already handles this by returning an error instead and we end
calling low_hash_fault which will just kill the task if possible.

We patch the TLB miss exception vectors to point to alternate
functions when using HW page table on BookE.
However, we were patching in a new branch in the first instruction
of the exception handler instead of the second one, thus overriding
the nop that is in the first instruction.
This cause problems when single stepping as we rely on that nop for
the single step to stop properly within the exception vector range
rather than on the target of the branch.

Form 1 affinity allows multiple entries in ibm,associativity-reference-points
which represent affinity domains in decreasing order of importance. The
Linux concept of a node is always the first entry, but using the other
values as an input to node_distance() allows the memory allocator to make
better decisions on which node to go first when local memory has been
exhausted.
We keep things simple and create an array indexed by NUMA node, capped at
4 entries. Each time we lookup an associativity property we initialise
the array which is overkill, but since we should only hit this path during
boot it didn't seem worth adding a per node valid bit.

We need to keep track of the backing pages that get allocated by
vmemmap_populate() so that when we use kdump, the dump-capture kernel knows
where these pages are.
We use a simple linked list of structures that contain the physical address
of the backing page and corresponding virtual address to track the backing
pages.
To save space, we just use a pointer to the next struct vmemmap_backing. We
can also do this because we never remove nodes. We call the pointer "list"
to be compatible with changes made to the crash utility.
vmemmap_populate() is called either at boot-time or on a memory hotplug
operation. We don't have to worry about the boot-time calls because they
will be inherently single-threaded, and for a memory hotplug operation
vmemmap_populate() is called through:
sparse_add_one_section()
|
V
kmalloc_section_memmap()
|
V
sparse_mem_map_populate()
|
V
vmemmap_populate()
and in sparse_add_one_section() we're protected by pgdat_resize_lock().
So, we don't need a spinlock to protect the vmemmap_list.
We allocate space for the vmemmap_backing structs by allocating whole pages
in vmemmap_list_alloc() and then handing out chunks of this to
vmemmap_list_populate().
This means that we waste at most just under one page, but this keeps the code
is simple.

The bypassing of this test is a leftover from 2.4 vintage
kernels, and is no longer appropriate, or even used by KGDB.
Currently KGDB uses probe_kernel_write() for all access to
memory via the KGDB core, so it can simply be deleted.
This fixes CVE-2010-1446.

Firmware changed the way it represents memory and cpu affinity on POWER7.
Unfortunately the old method now caps the topology to work around issues
with legacy operating systems. For Linux to get the correct topology we
need to use the new form 1 affinity information.
We set the form 1 field in the client architecture, and if we see "1" in the
ibm,associativity-form property firmware supports form 1 affinity and
we should look at the first field in the ibm,associativity-reference-points
array. If not we use the second field as we always have.

The code was looking for this in cpu_features, not mmu_features. Fix this.

Data address breakpoint exceptions are currently handled along with page-faults
which require interrupts to remain in enabled state. Since exception handling
for data breakpoints aren't pre-empt safe, we handle them separately.

We can't just clear the user read permission in book3e pte, because
that will also clear supervisor read permission. This surely isn't
desired. Fix the problem by adding the supervisor read back.
BenH: Slightly simplified the ifdef and applied to ppc64 too
