virt_to_page() is incredibly inefficient when virt-to-phys patching is enabled. This is because we end up with this calculation: page = &mem_map[asm virt_to_phys(addr) >> 12 - __pv_phys_offset >> 12] in assembly. The asm virt_to_phys() is equivalent this this operation: addr - PAGE_OFFSET + __pv_phys_offset and we can see that because this is assembly, the compiler has no chance to optimise some of that away. This should reduce down to: page = &mem_map[(addr - PAGE_OFFSET) >> 12] for the common cases. Permit the compiler to make this optimisation by giving it more of the information it needs - do this by providing a virt_to_pfn() macro. Another issue which makes this more complex is that __pv_phys_offset is a 64-bit type on all platforms. This is needlessly wasteful - if we store the physical offset as a PFN, we can save a lot of work having to deal with 64-bit values, which sometimes ends up producing incredibly horrid code: a4c: e3009000 movw r9, #0 a4c: R_ARM_MOVW_ABS_NC __pv_phys_offset a50: e3409000 movt r9, #0 ; r9 = &__pv_phys_offset a50: R_ARM_MOVT_ABS __pv_phys_offset a54: e3002000 movw r2, #0 a54: R_ARM_MOVW_ABS_NC __pv_phys_offset a58: e3402000 movt r2, #0 ; r2 = &__pv_phys_offset a58: R_ARM_MOVT_ABS __pv_phys_offset a5c: e5999004 ldr r9, [r9, #4] ; r9 = high word of __pv_phys_offset a60: e3001000 movw r1, #0 a60: R_ARM_MOVW_ABS_NC mem_map a64: e592c000 ldr ip, [r2] ; ip = low word of __pv_phys_offset Reviewed-by: Nicolas Pitre <nico@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>

While unwinding backtrace, stack overflow is possible. This stack overflow can sometimes lead to data abort in system if the area after stack is not mapped to physical memory. To prevent this problem from happening, execute the instructions that can cause a data abort in separate helper functions, where a check for feasibility is made before reading each word from the stack.

This patch moves bios32 over to using the generic code for enabling PCI resources. Since the core code takes care of bridge resources too, we can also drop the explicit IO and MEMORY enabling for them in the arch code. A side-effect of this change is that we no longer explicitly enable devices when running in PCI_PROBE_ONLY mode. This stays closer to the meaning of the option and prevents us from trying to enable devices without any assigned resources (the core code refuses to enable resources without parents).

Looking at perf profiles of multi-threaded hackbench runs, a significant performance hit appears to manifest from the cmpxchg loop used to implement the 32-bit atomic_add_unless function. This can be mitigated by writing a direct implementation of __atomic_add_unless which doesn't require iteration outside of the atomic operation.

The pte_accessible macro can be used to identify page table entries capable of being cached by a TLB. In principle, this differs from pte_present, since PROT_NONE mappings are mapped using invalid entries identified as present and ptes designated as `old' can use either invalid entries or those with the access flag cleared (guaranteed not to be in the TLB). However, there is a race to take care of, as described in 20841405 ("mm: fix TLB flush race between migration, and change_protection_range"), between a page being migrated and mprotected at the same time. In this case, we can check whether a TLB invalidation is pending for the mm and if so, temporarily consider PROT_NONE mappings as valid. This patch implements a quick pte_accessible macro for ARM by simply checking if the pte is valid/present depending on the mm. For classic MMU, these checks are identical and will generate some false positives for PROT_NONE mappings, but this is better than the current asm-generic definition of ((void)(pte),1). Finally, pte_present_user is moved to use pte_valid (and renamed appropriately) since we don't care about cache flushing for faulting mappings.

After a bunch of benchmarking on the interaction between dmb and pldw, it turns out that issuing the pldw *after* the dmb instruction can give modest performance gains (~3% atomic_add_return improvement on a dual A15).

The Coherant DMA allocator allocates pages of high order then splits them up into smaller pages. This splitting logic would run into problems if the allocator was given compound pages. Thus the Coherant DMA allocator was originally incompatible with compound pages existing and, by extension, huge pages. A compile #error was put in place whenever huge pages were enabled. Compatibility with compound pages has since been introduced by the following commit (which merely excludes GFP_COMP pages from being requested by the coherant DMA allocator): ea2e7057 ARM: 7172/1: dma: Drop GFP_COMP for DMA memory allocations When huge page support was introduced to ARM, the compile #error in dma-mapping.c was replaced by a #warning when it should have been removed instead. This patch removes the compile #warning in dma-mapping.c when huge pages are enabled. Signed-off-by: Steve Capper <steve.capper@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>

The functions in mcpm_entry.c are mostly intended for use during scary cache and coherency disabling sequences, or do other things which confuse trace ... like powering a CPU down and not returning. Similarly for the backend code. For simplicity, this patch just makes whole files notrace. There should be more than enough traceable points on the paths to these functions, but we can be more fine-grained later if there is a need for it.

CPU_32v6 currently selects CPU_USE_DOMAINS if CPU_V6 and MMU. This is because ARM 1136 r0pX CPUs lack the v6k extensions, and therefore do not have hardware thread registers. The lack of these registers requires the kernel to update the vectors page at each context switch in order to write a new TLS pointer. This write must be done via the userspace mapping, since aliasing caches can lead to expensive flushing when using kmap. Finally, this requires the vectors page to be mapped r/w for kernel and r/o for user, which has implications for things like put_user which must trigger CoW appropriately when targetting user pages. The upshot of all this is that a v6/v7 kernel makes use of domains to segregate kernel and user memory accesses. This has the nasty side-effect of making device mappings executable, which has been observed to cause subtle bugs on recent cores (e.g. Cortex-A15 performing a speculative instruction fetch from the GIC and acking an interrupt in the process). This patch solves this problem by removing the remaining domain support from ARMv6. A new memory type is added specifically for the vectors page which allows that page (and only that page) to be mapped as user r/o, kernel r/w. All other user r/o pages are mapped also as kernel r/o.

Booting on feroceon CPUS requires the L2 cache to be turned off. With some kernel configurations (notably CONFIG_ARM_PATCH_PHYS_VIRT disabled) the kernel will boot even if the L2 is turned on. However there may be subtle breakage, and when PATCH_PHYS_VIRT is enabled it is very likely that booting with L2 will crash at early boot before any kernel diagnostic output. The diagnostic message is intended to discourage people from shipping bootloaders that leave the L2 turned on. The issue on feroceon is that the L2 is bypassed when the L1 caches are disabled. So the decompressor will place parts of the kernel image into the L2 and the early cache-off boot code in head.S will write to parts of the kernel image, bypassing the L2 and creating inconsistency.

It actually goes back to 2004 ([PATCH] Concurrent O_SYNC write support) when sync_page_range() had been introduced; generic_file_write{,v}() correctly synced pos_after_write - written .. pos_after_write - 1 but generic_file_aio_write() synced pos_before_write .. pos_before_write + written - 1 instead. Which is not the same thing with O_APPEND, obviously. A couple of years later correct variant had been killed off when everything switched to use of generic_file_aio_write(). All users of generic_file_aio_write() are affected, and the same bug has been copied into other instances of ->aio_write(). The fix is trivial; the only subtle point is that generic_write_sync() ought to be inlined to avoid calculations useless for the majority of calls. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
