bf72aeba2f powerpc: Use 64k pages without needing cache-inhibited large pages
Some POWER5+ machines can do 64k hardware pages for normal memory but
not for cache-inhibited pages.  This patch lets us use 64k hardware
pages for most user processes on such machines (assuming the kernel
has been configured with CONFIG_PPC_64K_PAGES=y).  User processes
start out using 64k pages and get switched to 4k pages if they use any
non-cacheable mappings.

With this, we use 64k pages for the vmalloc region and 4k pages for
the imalloc region.  If anything creates a non-cacheable mapping in
the vmalloc region, the vmalloc region will get switched to 4k pages.
I don't know of any driver other than the DRM that would do this,
though, and these machines don't have AGP.

When a region gets switched from 64k pages to 4k pages, we do not have
to clear out all the 64k HPTEs from the hash table immediately.  We
use the _PAGE_COMBO bit in the Linux PTE to indicate whether the page
was hashed in as a 64k page or a set of 4k pages.  If hash_page is
trying to insert a 4k page for a Linux PTE and it sees that it has
already been inserted as a 64k page, it first invalidates the 64k HPTE
before inserting the 4k HPTE.  The hash invalidation routines also use
the _PAGE_COMBO bit, to determine whether to look for a 64k HPTE or a
set of 4k HPTEs to remove.  With those two changes, we can tolerate a
mix of 4k and 64k HPTEs in the hash table, and they will all get
removed when the address space is torn down.

c5cf0e30bf [PATCH] powerpc: Fix buglet with MMU hash management
Our MMU hash management code would not set the "C" bit (changed bit) in
the hardware PTE when updating a RO PTE into a RW PTE. That would cause
the hardware to possibly to a write back to the hash table to set it on
the first store access, which in addition to being a performance issue,
might also hit a bug when running with native hash management (non-HV)
as our code is specifically optimized for the case where no write back
happens.

Thus there is a very small therocial window were a hash PTE can become
corrupted if that HPTE has just been upgraded to read write, a store
access happens on it, and that races with another processor evicting
that same slot. Since eviction (caused by an almost full hash) is
extremely rare, the bug is very unlikely to happen fortunately.

This fixes by allowing the updating of the protection bits in the native
hash handling to also set (but not clear) the "C" bit, and, in order to
also improve performances in the general case, by always setting that
bit on newly inserted hash PTE so that writeback really never happens.

2babf5c2ec [PATCH] powerpc: Unify mem= handling
We currently do mem= handling in three seperate places. And as benh pointed out
I wrote two of them. Now that we parse command line parameters earlier we can
clean this mess up.

Moving the parsing out of prom_init means the device tree might be allocated
above the memory limit. If that happens we'd have to move it. As it happens
we already have logic to do that for kdump, so just genericise it.

This also means we might have reserved regions above the memory limit, if we
do the bootmem allocator will blow up, so we have to modify
lmb_enforce_memory_limit() to truncate the reserves as well.

Tested on P5 LPAR, iSeries, F50, 44p. Tested moving device tree on P5 and
44p and F50.

953039c8df [PATCH] powerpc: Allow devices to register with numa topology
Change of_node_to_nid() to traverse the device tree, looking for a numa id.
Cell uses this to assign ids to SPUs, which are children of the CPU node.
Existing users of of_node_to_nid() are altered to use of_node_to_nid_single(),
which doesn't do the traversal.

Export an attach_sysdev_to_node() function, allowing system devices (eg.
SPUs) to link themselves into the numa topology in sysfs.

f10a04c034 [PATCH] powerpc: Fix pagetable bloat for hugepages
At present, ARCH=powerpc kernels can waste considerable space in
pagetables when making large hugepage mappings.  Hugepage PTEs go in
PMD pages, but each PMD page maps 256M and so contains only 16
hugepage PTEs (128 bytes of data), but takes up a 1024 byte
allocation.  With CONFIG_PPC_64K_PAGES enabled (64k base page size),
the situation is worse.  Now hugepage PTEs are at the PTE page level
(also mapping 256M), so we store 16 hugepage PTEs in a 64k allocation.

The PowerPC MMU already means that any 256M region is either all
hugepage, or all normal pages.  Thus, with some care, we can use a
different allocation for the hugepage PTE tables and only allocate the
128 bytes necessary.

0e5519548f [PATCH] for_each_possible_cpu: powerpc
for_each_cpu() actually iterates across all possible CPUs.  We've had mistakes
in the past where people were using for_each_cpu() where they should have been
iterating across only online or present CPUs.  This is inefficient and
possibly buggy.

We're renaming for_each_cpu() to for_each_possible_cpu() to avoid this in the
future.

This patch replaces for_each_cpu with for_each_possible_cpu.

42b88befd6 [PATCH] hugepage: is_aligned_hugepage_range() cleanup
Quite a long time back, prepare_hugepage_range() replaced
is_aligned_hugepage_range() as the callback from mm/mmap.c to arch code to
verify if an address range is suitable for a hugepage mapping.
is_aligned_hugepage_range() stuck around, but only to implement
prepare_hugepage_range() on archs which didn't implement their own.

Most archs (everything except ia64 and powerpc) used the same
implementation of is_aligned_hugepage_range().  On powerpc, which
implements its own prepare_hugepage_range(), the custom version was never
used.

In addition, "is_aligned_hugepage_range()" was a bad name, because it
suggests it returns true iff the given range is a good hugepage range,
whereas in fact it returns 0-or-error (so the sense is reversed).

This patch cleans up by abolishing is_aligned_hugepage_range().  Instead
prepare_hugepage_range() is defined directly.  Most archs use the default
version, which simply checks the given region is aligned to the size of a
hugepage.  ia64 and powerpc define custom versions.  The ia64 one simply
checks that the range is in the correct address space region in addition to
being suitably aligned.  The powerpc version (just as previously) checks
for suitable addresses, and if necessary performs low-level MMU frobbing to
set up new areas for use by hugepages.

No libhugetlbfs testsuite regressions on ppc64 (POWER5 LPAR).

caf80e579b [PATCH] powerpc: Unconfuse htab_bolt_mapping() callers
htab_bolt_mapping() takes a vstart and pstart parameter, but all but one of
its callers actually pass it vstart and vstart. Luckily before it passes
paddr (calculated from paddr) to the hpte_insert routines it calls
virt_to_abs() (aka. __pa()) on the address, so there isn't actually a bug.

map_io_page() however does pass pstart properly, so currently it's broken
AFAICT because we're calling __pa(paddr) which will get us something very
large. Presumably no one's calling map_io_page() in the right context.

Anyway, change htab_bolt_mapping() callers to properly pass pstart, and then
use it properly in htab_bolt_mapping(), ie. don't call __pa() on it again.

calling iSeries_hpte_bolt_or_insert. (4c55130b2a)

Later we changed iSeries_hpte_insert to cope with the bolting case, and called
that instead from create_pte_mapping() (which was renamed to htab_bolt_mapping)
(3c726f8dee).

Unfortunately that change introduced a subtle bug, where we pass an absolute
address to iSeries_hpte_insert() where it expects a physical address. This
leads to us calling phys_to_abs() twice on the physical address, which is
seriously bogus.

This only causes a problem if the absolute address from the first translation
can be looked up again in the chunk_map, which depends on the size and layout
of memory. I've seen it fail on one box, but not others.

The minimal fix is to pass the physical address to iSeries_hpte_insert(). For
2.6.17 we should make phys_to_abs() BUG if we try to double-translate an
address.

47f78a4920 [PATCH] powerpc64: fix spinlock recursion in native_hpte_clear
native_hpte_clear has a spinlock recursion problem with the native_tlbie_lock
being called twice, once in native_hpte_clear() and once within tlbie().
Fix the problem by changing the call to tlbie() in native_hpte_clear() to
__tlbie(). It still supports only 4k pages for now.

337a7128db [PATCH] powerpc: Only calculate htab_size in one place for kexec
For kexec we need to know the size of the MMU hash table.

Currently we calculate the size once in the htab code, and then twice more in
the kexec code, once using htab_hash_mask and once using ppc64_pft_size.
On some machines the ppc64_pft_size calculation is broken because
ppc64_pft_size is not set.

So we need to fix the second calculation, but better still we should just
calculate the size once and use it everywhere else.

Tested on Power5 LPAR, Power4 non-LPAR and Power3.

This patch removes all self references and fixes references to files
in the now defunct arch/ppc64 tree.  I think this accomplises
everything wanted, though there might be a few references I missed.

d7a5b2ffa1 [PATCH] powerpc: Always panic if lmb_alloc() fails
Currently most callers of lmb_alloc() don't check if it worked or not, if it
ever does weird bad things will probably happen. The few callers who do check
just panic or BUG_ON.

So make lmb_alloc() panic internally, to catch bugs at the source. The few
callers who did check the result no longer need to.

The only caller that did anything interesting with the return result was
careful_allocation(). For it we create __lmb_alloc_base() which _doesn't_ panic
automatically, a little messy, but passable.

09f5dc44ae [PATCH] powerpc: Cleanup, consolidating icache dirtying logic
The code to mark a page as icache dirty (so that it will later be
icache-dcache flushed when we try to execute from it) is duplicated in
three places: flush_dcache_page() does this marking and nothing else,
but clear_user_page() and copy_user_page() duplicate it, since those
functions make the page icache dirty themselves.

This patch makes those other functions call flush_dcache_page()
instead, so the logic's all in one place.  This will make life less
confusing if we ever need to tweak the details of the the lazy icache
flush mechanism.

8c20fafa85 [PATCH] powerpc: Make sure we don't create empty lmb regions
To prevent problems later in boot, make sure we don't create zero-size lmb
regions.

I've checked all the callers, and at the moment no one should ever hit this.
All callers use a constant size, or they check the computed size before they
call us.

240-ioremap-null-ptr-test.patch

Under highly unusual circumstances, a buggy driver will ask a null ptr
to be ioremapped, an operation that curently succeeds but leads to
later trouble.  Instead, refuse to remap the null pointer.
