mm: Use ptep/pmdp_set_numa() for updating _PAGE_NUMA bit

2014-02-17T00:19:36Z

Archs like ppc64 doesn't do tlb flush in set_pte/pmd functions when using a hash table MMU for various reasons (the flush is handled as part of the PTE modification when necessary). ppc64 thus doesn't implement flush_tlb_range for hash based MMUs. Additionally ppc64 require the tlb flushing to be batched within ptl locks. The reason to do that is to ensure that the hash page table is in sync with linux page table. We track the hpte index in linux pte and if we clear them without flushing hash and drop the ptl lock, we can have another cpu update the pte and can end up with duplicate entry in the hash table, which is fatal. We also want to keep set_pte_at simpler by not requiring them to do hash flush for performance reason. We do that by assuming that set_pte_at() is never *ever* called on a PTE that is already valid. This was the case until the NUMA code went in which broke that assumption. Fix that by introducing a new pair of helpers to set _PAGE_NUMA in a way similar to ptep/pmdp_set_wrprotect(), with a generic implementation using set_pte_at() and a powerpc specific one using the appropriate mechanism needed to keep the hash table in sync.

Pull powerpc mremap fix from Ben Herrenschmidt: "This is the patch that I had sent after -rc8 and which we decided to wait before merging. It's based on a different tree than my -next branch (it needs some pre-reqs that were in -rc4 or so while my -next is based on -rc1) so I left it as a separate branch for your to pull. It's identical to the request I did 2 or 3 weeks back. This fixes crashes in mremap with THP on powerpc. The fix however requires a small change in the generic code. It moves a condition into a helper we can override from the arch which is harmless, but it *also* slightly changes the order of the set_pmd and the withdraw & deposit, which should be fine according to Kirill (who wrote that code) but I agree -rc8 is a bit late... It was acked by Kirill and Andrew told me to just merge it via powerpc" * 'merge' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/benh/powerpc: powerpc/thp: Fix crash on mremap

add generic fixmap.h

2014-01-24T00:36:54Z

Many architectures provide an asm/fixmap.h which defines support for compile-time 'special' virtual mappings which need to be made before paging_init() has run. This support is also used for early ioremap on x86. Much of this support is identical across the architectures. This patch consolidates all of the common bits into asm-generic/fixmap.h which is intended to be included from arch/*/include/asm/fixmap.h.

asm/types.h: Remove include/asm-generic/int-l64.h

2014-01-24T00:36:53Z

Now all 64-bit architectures have been converted to int-ll64.h, we can remove int-l64.h in kernelspace. For backwards compatibility, alpha, ia64, mips64, and powerpc64 still use int-l64.h in userspace. This is the (reworked for UAPI) non-documentation part of more than two year old "asm/types.h: All architectures use int-ll64.h in kernelspace" (https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/8/13/104) Since (from include/uapi/asm-generic/types.h) is used for both kernel and user space, include/asm-generic/int-ll64.h cannot just become include/asm-generic/types.h, as Arnd suggested.

audit: Modify a set of system calls in audit class definitions

2014-01-17T22:01:46Z

Each asm-generic/audit_xx.h defines a set of system calls for respective audit permission class (read, write, change attribute or exec). This patch changes two entries: 1) fchown in audit_change_attr.h Make fchown included by its own because in asm-generic/unistd.h, for example, fchown always exists while chown is optional. This change is necessary at least for arm64. 2) truncate64 in audit_write.h Add missing truncate64/ftruncate64 as well as truncate/ftruncate Signed-off-by: AKASHI Takahiro Acked-by: Will Deacon Signed-off-by: Eric Paris

On mremap, when we switch the pmd, we need to withdraw and deposit the pgtable again, so that we find the pgtable at PTRS_PER_PMD offset from new pmd. We also want to move the withdraw and deposit before the set_pmd so that, when page fault find the pmd as trans huge we can be sure that pgtable can be located at the offset.
