c04fc586c1 mm: show node to memory section relationship with symlinks in sysfs
Show node to memory section relationship with symlinks in sysfs

Add /sys/devices/system/node/nodeX/memoryY symlinks for all
the memory sections located on nodeX.  For example:
/sys/devices/system/node/node1/memory135 -> ../../memory/memory135
indicates that memory section 135 resides on node1.

Also revises documentation to cover this change as well as updating
Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-devices-memory to include descriptions
of memory hotremove files 'phys_device', 'phys_index', and 'state'
that were previously not described there.

In addition to it always being a good policy to provide users with
the maximum possible amount of physical location information for
resources that can be hot-added and/or hot-removed, the following
are some (but likely not all) of the user benefits provided by
this change.
Immediate:
  - Provides information needed to determine the specific node
    on which a defective DIMM is located.  This will reduce system
    downtime when the node or defective DIMM is swapped out.
  - Prevents unintended onlining of a memory section that was
    previously offlined due to a defective DIMM.  This could happen
    during node hot-add when the user or node hot-add assist script
    onlines _all_ offlined sections due to user or script inability
    to identify the specific memory sections located on the hot-added
    node.  The consequences of reintroducing the defective memory
    could be ugly.
  - Provides information needed to vary the amount and distribution
    of memory on specific nodes for testing or debugging purposes.
Future:
  - Will provide information needed to identify the memory
    sections that need to be offlined prior to physical removal
    of a specific node.

Symlink creation during boot was tested on 2-node x86_64, 2-node
ppc64, and 2-node ia64 systems.  Symlink creation during physical
memory hot-add tested on a 2-node x86_64 system.

716777db72 sh: P4 ioremap pass-through
This patch adds a pass-through case when ioremapping P4 addresses.

Addresses passed to ioremap() should be physical addresses, so the
best option is usually to convert the virtual address to a physical
address before calling ioremap. This will give you a virtual address
in P2 which matches the physical address and this works well for
most internal hardware blocks on the SuperH architecture.

However, some hardware blocks must be accessed through P4. Converting
the P4 address to a physical and then back to a P2 does not work. One
example of this is the sh7722 TMU block, it must be accessed through P4.

Without this patch P4 addresses will be mapped using PTEs which
requires the page allocator to be up and running.

185aed7557 sh: Provide a sane valid_phys_addr_range() to prevent TLB reset with PMB.
With the PMB enabled, only P1SEG and up are covered by the PMB mappings,
meaning that situations where out-of-bounds physical addresses are read
from will lead to TLB reset after the PMB miss, allowing for use cases
like dd if=/dev/mem to reset the TLB.

Fix this up to make sure the reference is between __MEMORY_START (phys)
and __pa(high_memory). This is coherent across all variants of sh/sh64
with and without MMU, though the PMB bug itself is only applicable to
SH-4A parts.

acca4f4d9b sh: Handle fixmap TLB eviction more coherently.
There was a race in the kmap_coherent() implementation. While we
guarded against preemption, there was nothing preventing eviction of
the pre-faulted fixmap entry from the UTLB. Under certain workloads
this would result in the fixmap entries used for cache colouring being
evicted from the UTLB in the midst of a copy_page().

In addition to pre-faulting, we also make sure to preserve the PTEs
in the kernel page table and introduce a cached PTE for kmap_coherent()
usage. This follows a similar change on MIPS ("[MIPS] Fix aliasing bug
in copy_to_user_page / copy_from_user_page").

3d58695edb sh: Trivial trace_mark() instrumentation for core events.
This implements a few trace points across events that are deemed
interesting. This implements a number of trace points:

	- The page fault handler / TLB miss
	- IPC calls
	- Kernel thread creation

The original LTTng patch had the slow-path instrumented, which
fails to account for the vast majority of events. In general
placing this in the fast-path is not a huge performance hit, as
we don't take page faults for kernel addresses.

The other bits of interest are some of the other trap handlers, as
well as the syscall entry/exit (which is better off being handled
through the tracehook API). Most of the other trap handlers are corner
cases where alternate means of notification exist, so there is little
value in placing extra trace points in these locations.

Based on top of the points provided both by the LTTng instrumentation
patch as well as the patch shipping in the ST-Linux tree, albeit in a
stripped down form.

c15c5f8c2b sh: Support kernel stacks smaller than a page.
This follows the powerpc commit f6a616800e
'[POWERPC] Fix kernel stack allocation alignment'.

SH has traditionally forced the thread order to be relative to the page
size, so there were never any situations where the same bug was
triggered by slub. Regardless, the usage of > 8kB stacks for the larger
page sizes is overkill, so we switch to using slab allocations there,
as per the powerpc change.

3560e249ab bootmem: replace node_boot_start in struct bootmem_data
Almost all users of this field need a PFN instead of a physical address,
so replace node_boot_start with node_min_pfn.

a551643895 hugetlb: modular state for hugetlb page size
The goal of this patchset is to support multiple hugetlb page sizes.  This
is achieved by introducing a new struct hstate structure, which
encapsulates the important hugetlb state and constants (eg.  huge page
size, number of huge pages currently allocated, etc).

The hstate structure is then passed around the code which requires these
fields, they will do the right thing regardless of the exact hstate they
are operating on.

This patch adds the hstate structure, with a single global instance of it
(default_hstate), and does the basic work of converting hugetlb to use the
hstate.

Future patches will add more hstate structures to allow for different
hugetlbfs mounts to have different page sizes.
