* powerpc/mm: Add MMU features for TLB reservation & Paired MAS registersKumar Gala2009-08-281-1/+37
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Support for TLB reservation (or TLB Write Conditional) and Paired MAS registers are optional for a processor implementation so we handle them via MMU feature sections. We currently only used paired MAS registers to access the full RPN + perm bits that are kept in MAS7||MAS3. We assume that if an implementation has hardware page table at this time it also implements in TLB reservations.

* | powerpc/mm: Cleanup handling of execute permissionBenjamin Herrenschmidt2009-08-274-56/+121
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is an attempt at cleaning up a bit the way we handle execute permission on powerpc. _PAGE_HWEXEC is gone, _PAGE_EXEC is now only defined by CPUs that can do something with it, and the myriad of #ifdef's in the I$/D$ coherency code is reduced to 2 cases that hopefully should cover everything. The logic on BookE is a little bit different than what it was though not by much. Since now, _PAGE_EXEC will be set by the generic code for executable pages, we need to filter out if they are unclean and recover it. However, I don't expect the code to be more bloated than it already was in that area due to that change. I could boast that this brings proper enforcing of per-page execute permissions to all BookE and 40x but in fact, we've had that now for some time as a side effect of my previous rework in that area (and I didn't even know it :-) We would only enable execute permission if the page was cache clean and we would only cache clean it if we took and exec fault. Since we now enforce that the later only work if VM_EXEC is part of the VMA flags, we de-fact already enforce per-page execute permissions...

| * powerpc: Allow perf_counters to access user memory at interrupt timePaul Mackerras2009-08-182-12/+36
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This provides a mechanism to allow the perf_counters code to access user memory in a PMU interrupt routine. Such an access can cause various kinds of interrupt: SLB miss, MMU hash table miss, segment table miss, or TLB miss, depending on the processor. This commit only deals with 64-bit classic/server processors, which use an MMU hash table. 32-bit processors are already able to access user memory at interrupt time. Since we don't soft-disable on 32-bit, we avoid the possibility of reentering hash_page or the TLB miss handlers, since they run with interrupts disabled. On 64-bit processors, an SLB miss interrupt on a user address will update the slb_cache and slb_cache_ptr fields in the paca. This is OK except in the case where a PMU interrupt occurs in switch_slb, which also accesses those fields. To prevent this, we hard-disable interrupts in switch_slb. Interrupts are already soft-disabled at this point, and will get hard-enabled when they get soft-enabled later. This also reworks slb_flush_and_rebolt: to avoid hard-disabling twice, and to make sure that it clears the slb_cache_ptr when called from other callers than switch_slb, the existing routine is renamed to __slb_flush_and_rebolt, which is called by switch_slb and the new version of slb_flush_and_rebolt. Similarly, switch_stab (used on POWER3 and RS64 processors) gets a hard_irq_disable() to protect the per-cpu variables used there and in ste_allocate. If a MMU hashtable miss interrupt occurs, normally we would call hash_page to look up the Linux PTE for the address and create a HPTE. However, hash_page is fairly complex and takes some locks, so to avoid the possibility of deadlock, we check the preemption count to see if we are in a (pseudo-)NMI handler, and if so, we don't call hash_page but instead treat it like a bad access that will get reported up through the exception table mechanism. An interrupt whose handler runs even though the interrupt occurred when soft-disabled (such as the PMU interrupt) is considered a pseudo-NMI handler, which should use nmi_enter()/nmi_exit() rather than irq_enter()/irq_exit().

* | powerpc/mm: Fix assert_pte_locked to work properly on uniprocessorKumar Gala2009-08-201-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since the pte_lockptr is a spinlock it gets optimized away on uniprocessor builds so using spin_is_locked is not correct. We can use assert_spin_locked instead and get the proper behavior between UP and SMP builds.

* | powerpc/mm: Rework & cleanup page table freeing code pathBenjamin Herrenschmidt2009-08-204-0/+36
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | That patch used to just add a hook to page table flushing but pulling that string brought out a whole bunch of issues, so it now does that and more: - We now make the RCU batching of page freeing SMP only, as I believe it was intended initially. We make a few more things compile to nothing on !CONFIG_SMP - Some macros are turned into functions, though that forced me to out of line a few stuffs due to unsolvable include depenencies, however it's probably better that way anyway, it's not -that- critical code path. - 32-bit didn't call pte_free_finish() on tlb_flush() which means that it wouldn't push out the batch to RCU for delayed freeing when a bunch of page tables have been freed, they would just stay in there until the batch gets full. 64-bit BookE will use that hook to maintain the virtually linear page tables or the indirect entries in the TLB when using the HW loader.

* | powerpc: Use names rather than numbers for SPRGs (v2)Benjamin Herrenschmidt2009-08-201-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The kernel uses SPRG registers for various purposes, typically in low level assembly code as scratch registers or to hold per-cpu global infos such as the PACA or the current thread_info pointer. We want to be able to easily shuffle the usage of those registers as some implementations have specific constraints realted to some of them, for example, some have userspace readable aliases, etc.. and the current choice isn't always the best. This patch should not change any code generation, and replaces the usage of SPRN_SPRGn everywhere in the kernel with a named replacement and adds documentation next to the definition of the names as to what those are used for on each processor family. The only parts that still use the original numbers are bits of KVM or suspend/resume code that just blindly needs to save/restore all the SPRGs.

We can reuse this preload slot by loading in the segment at 0x10000000, where almost all PowerPC binaries are linked at. On a microbenchmark that bounces a token between two 64bit processes over pipes and calls gettimeofday each iteration (to access the VDSO), both the 32bit and 64bit context switch rate improves (tested on a 4GHz POWER6): 32bit: 273k/sec -> 283k/sec 64bit: 277k/sec -> 284k/sec Signed-off-by: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org> Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

* powerpc/mm: Fix SMP issue with MMU context handling codeKumar Gala2009-07-291-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | In switch_mmu_context() if we call steal_context_smp() to get a context to use we shouldn't fall through and than call steal_context_up(). Doing so can be problematic in that the 'mm' that steal_context_up() ends up using will not get marked dirty in the stale_map[] for other CPUs that might have used that mm. Thus we could end up with stale TLB entries in the other CPUs that can cause all kinda of havoc. Signed-off-by: Kumar Gala <galak@kernel.crashing.org>
* mm: Pass virtual address to [__]p{te,ud,md}_free_tlb()Benjamin Herrenschmidt2009-07-271-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | mm: Pass virtual address to [__]p{te,ud,md}_free_tlb() Upcoming paches to support the new 64-bit "BookE" powerpc architecture will need to have the virtual address corresponding to PTE page when freeing it, due to the way the HW table walker works. Basically, the TLB can be loaded with "large" pages that cover the whole virtual space (well, sort-of, half of it actually) represented by a PTE page, and which contain an "indirect" bit indicating that this TLB entry RPN points to an array of PTEs from which the TLB can then create direct entries. Thus, in order to invalidate those when PTE pages are deleted, we need the virtual address to pass to tlbilx or tlbivax instructions. The old trick of sticking it somewhere in the PTE page struct page sucks too much, the address is almost readily available in all call sites and almost everybody implemets these as macros, so we may as well add the argument everywhere. I added it to the pmd and pud variants for consistency.

The rq->lock can also be taken from interrupts, thus if we get interrupted in destroy_context() with the context lock held and that interrupt tries to take the rq->lock, there's a possible deadlock scenario with another CPU having the rq->lock and calling switch_mm() which takes our context lock. The fix is to always ensure interrupts are off when taking our context lock. The switch_mm() path is already good so this fixes the destroy_context() path. While at it, turn the context lock into a new style spinlock. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>
* | | | | powerpc/mm: Fix some SMP issues with MMU context handlingBenjamin Herrenschmidt2009-06-091-4/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch fixes a couple of issues that can happen as a result of steal_context() dropping the context_lock when all possible PIDs are ineligible for stealing (hopefully an extremely hard to hit occurence). This case exposes the possibility of a stale context_mm[] entry to be seen since destroy_context() doesn't clear it and the free map isn't re-tested. It also means steal_context() will not notice a context freed while the lock was help, thus possibly trying to steal a context when a free one was available. This fixes it by always returning to the caller from steal_context when it dropped the lock with a return value that causes the caller to re-samble the number of free contexts, along with properly clearing the context_mm[] array for destroyed contexts.

| * | | | powerpc: Fix up dma_alloc_coherent() on platforms without cache coherency.Benjamin Herrenschmidt2009-05-272-67/+45
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The implementation we just revived has issues, such as using a Kconfig-defined virtual address area in kernel space that nothing actually carves out (and thus will overlap whatever is there), or having some dependencies on being self contained in a single PTE page which adds unnecessary constraints on the kernel virtual address space. This fixes it by using more classic PTE accessors and automatically locating the area for consistent memory, carving an appropriate hole in the kernel virtual address space, leaving only the size of that area as a Kconfig option. It also brings some dma-mask related fixes from the ARM implementation which was almost identical initially but grew its own fixes. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>
| * | | | powerpc: Minor cleanups of kernel virt address space definitionsBenjamin Herrenschmidt2009-05-273-8/+15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Make FIXADDR_TOP a compile time constant and cleanup a couple of definitions relative to the layout of the kernel address space on ppc32. We also print out that layout at boot time for debugging purposes. This is a pre-requisite for properly fixing non-coherent DMA allocactions.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The recent rework of the MMU PID handling for non-hash CPUs has a subtle bug in the !SMP "optimized" variant of the PID stealing function. It clears the PID in the mm context before it calls local_flush_tlb_mm(). However, the later will not flush anything if the PID in the context is clear...
