2013-09-20arm64: Make do_bad_area() function staticCatalin Marinas

2013-09-12arch: mm: pass userspace fault flag to generic fault handlerJohannes Weiner
Unlike global OOM handling, memory cgroup code will invoke the OOM killer in any OOM situation because it has no way of telling faults occuring in kernel context - which could be handled more gracefully - from user-triggered faults. Pass a flag that identifies faults originating in user space from the architecture-specific fault handlers to generic code so that memcg OOM handling can be improved.

2013-09-12arch: mm: do not invoke OOM killer on kernel fault OOMJohannes Weiner
Kernel faults are expected to handle OOM conditions gracefully (gup, uaccess etc.), so they should never invoke the OOM killer. Reserve this for faults triggered in user context when it is the only option. Most architectures already do this, fix up the remaining few.

2013-07-19arm64: mm: don't treat user cache maintenance faults as writesWill Deacon
On arm64, cache maintenance faults appear as data aborts with the CM bit set in the ESR. The WnR bit, usually used to distinguish between faulting loads and stores, always reads as 1 and (slightly confusingly) the instructions are treated as reads by the architecture. This patch fixes our fault handling code to treat cache maintenance faults in the same way as loads.

2013-06-14ARM64: mm: HugeTLB support.Steve Capper
Add huge page support to ARM64, different huge page sizes are supported depending on the size of normal pages: PAGE_SIZE is 4KB: 2MB - (pmds) these can be allocated at any time. 1024MB - (puds) usually allocated on bootup with the command line with something like: hugepagesz=1G hugepages=6 PAGE_SIZE is 64KB: 512MB - (pmds) usually allocated on bootup via command line.

2013-05-24arm64: Do not report user faults for handled signalsCatalin Marinas
Currently user faults (page, undefined instruction) are always reported even though the user may have a signal handler for them. This patch adds unhandled_signal() check together with printk_ratelimit() for these cases. Signed-off-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com>
2013-05-08arm64: Ignore the 'write' ESR flag on cache maintenance faultsCatalin Marinas
ESR.WnR bit is always set on data cache maintenance faults even though the page is not required to have write permission. If a translation fault (page not yet mapped) happens for read-only user address range, Linux incorrectly assumes a permission fault. This patch adds the check of the ESR.CM bit during the page fault handling to ignore the 'write' flag.

2013-04-25arm64: mm: Correct show_pte behaviourSteve Capper
show_pte makes use of the *_none_or_clear_bad style functions. If a pgd, pud or pmd is identified as being bad, it will then be cleared. As show_pte appears to be called from either the user or kernel fault handlers this side effect can lead to unpredictable behaviour; especially as TLB entries are not invalidated. This patch removes the page table sanitisation from show_pte. If a bad pgd, pud or pmd is encountered it is left unmodified.

2012-11-14arm64: Make the user fault reporting more specificCatalin Marinas
For user space faults the kernel reports "unhandled page fault" and it gives the ESR value. With this patch the error message looked up in the fault info array to give a better description. Signed-off-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com>
2012-09-17arm64: MMU fault handling and page table managementCatalin Marinas
This patch adds support for the handling of the MMU faults (exception entry code introduced by a previous patch) and page table management. The user translation table is pointed to by TTBR0 and the kernel one (swapper_pg_dir) by TTBR1. There is no translation information shared or address space overlapping between user and kernel page tables.
