Andy Lutomirski a6c19dfe39 arm64,ia64,ppc,s390,sh,tile,um,x86,mm: remove default gate area
The core mm code will provide a default gate area based on
FIXADDR_USER_START and FIXADDR_USER_END if
!defined(__HAVE_ARCH_GATE_AREA) && defined(AT_SYSINFO_EHDR).

This default is only useful for ia64.  arm64, ppc, s390, sh, tile, 64-bit
UML, and x86_32 have their own code just to disable it.  arm, 32-bit UML,
and x86_64 have gate areas, but they have their own implementations.

This gets rid of the default and moves the code into ia64.

This should save some code on architectures without a gate area: it's now
possible to inline the gate_area functions in the default case.

Alistair Popple ecb35c3943 powerpc: Fix 64K page size support for PPC44x
PPC44x supports page sizes other than 4K however when 64K page sizes

The above patch only implements the new layout for PPC64 so it doesn't
compile for PPC32 with a 64K page size. Ideally we should implement
the same layout for PPC32 however for the meantime this patch reverts
the definition of pgtable_t for PPC32.

Paul Mackerras bdbc29c19b powerpc: Work around gcc miscompilation of __pa() on 64-bit
On 64-bit, __pa(&static_var) gets miscompiled by recent versions of
gcc as something like:

        addis 3,2,.LANCHOR1+4611686018427387904@toc@ha
        addi 3,3,.LANCHOR1+4611686018427387904@toc@l

This ends up effectively ignoring the offset, since its bottom 32 bits
are zero, and means that the result of __pa() still has 0xC in the top
nibble.  This happens with gcc 4.8.1, at least.

To work around this, for 64-bit we make __pa() use an AND operator,
and for symmetry, we make __va() use an OR operator.  Using an AND
operator rather than a subtraction ends up with slightly shorter code
since it can be done with a single clrldi instruction, whereas it
takes three instructions to form the constant (-PAGE_OFFSET) and add
it on.  (Note that MEMORY_START is always 0 on 64-bit.)

Aneesh Kumar K.V 5c1f6ee9a3 powerpc: Reduce PTE table memory wastage
We allocate one page for the last level of linux page table. With THP and
large page size of 16MB, that would mean we are wasting large part
of that page. To map 16MB area, we only need a PTE space of 2K with 64K
page size. This patch reduce the space wastage by sharing the page
allocated for the last level of linux page table with multiple pmd
entries. We call these smaller chunks PTE page fragments and allocated
page, PTE page.

In order to support systems which doesn't have 64K HPTE support, we also
add another 2K to PTE page fragment. The second half of the PTE fragments
is used for storing slot and secondary bit information of an HPTE. With this
we now have a 4K PTE fragment.

We use a simple approach to share the PTE page. On allocation, we bump the
PTE page refcount to 16 and share the PTE page with the next 16 pte alloc
request. This should help in the node locality of the PTE page fragment,
assuming that the immediate pte alloc request will mostly come from the
same NUMA node. We don't try to reuse the freed PTE page fragment. Hence
we could be waisting some space.

Aneesh Kumar K.V e2b3d202d1 powerpc: Switch 16GB and 16MB explicit hugepages to a different page table format
We will be switching PMD_SHIFT to 24 bits to facilitate THP impmenetation.
With PMD_SHIFT set to 24, we now have 16MB huge pages allocated at PGD level.
That means with 32 bit process we cannot allocate normal pages at
all, because we cover the entire address space with one pgd entry. Fix this
by switching to a new page table format for hugepages. With the new page table
format for 16GB and 16MB hugepages we won't allocate hugepage directory. Instead
we encode the PTE information directly at the directory level. This forces 16MB
hugepage at PMD level. This will also make the page take walk much simpler later
when we add the THP support.

With the new table format we have 4 cases for pgds and pmds:
(1) invalid (all zeroes)
(2) pointer to next table, as normal; bottom 6 bits == 0
(3) leaf pte for huge page, bottom two bits != 00
(4) hugepd pointer, bottom two bits == 00, next 4 bits indicate size of table

	virtual_base = ALIGN(KERNELBASE,KERNEL_TLB_PIN_SIZE) +

On BookE, we need __va() & __pa() early in the boot process to access
the device tree.

Currently this has been defined as :

#define __va(x) ((void *)(unsigned long)((phys_addr_t)(x) -
						PHYSICAL_START + KERNELBASE)
where:
 PHYSICAL_START is kernstart_addr - a variable updated at runtime.
 KERNELBASE	is the compile time Virtual base address of kernel.

This won't work for us, as kernstart_addr is dynamic and will yield different
results for __va()/__pa() for same mapping.

e.g.,

Let the kernel be loaded at 64MB and KERNELBASE be 0xc0000000 (same as
PAGE_OFFSET).

In this case, we would be mapping 0 to 0xc0000000, and kernstart_addr = 64M

Now __va(1MB) = (0x100000) - (0x4000000) + 0xc0000000
		= 0xbc100000 , which is wrong.

it should be : 0xc0000000 + 0x100000 = 0xc0100000

On platforms which support AMP, like PPC_47x (based on 44x), the kernel
could be loaded at highmem. Hence we cannot always depend on the compile
time constants for mapping.

Here are the possible solutions:

1) Update kernstart_addr(PHSYICAL_START) to match the Physical address of
compile time KERNELBASE value, instead of the actual Physical_Address(_stext).

The disadvantage is that we may break other users of PHYSICAL_START. They
could be replaced with __pa(_stext).

2) Redefine __va() & __pa() with relocation offset

#ifdef	CONFIG_RELOCATABLE_PPC32
#define __va(x) ((void *)(unsigned long)((phys_addr_t)(x) - PHYSICAL_START + (KERNELBASE + RELOC_OFFSET)))
#define __pa(x) ((unsigned long)(x) + PHYSICAL_START - (KERNELBASE + RELOC_OFFSET))
#endif

where, RELOC_OFFSET could be

  a) A variable, say relocation_offset (like kernstart_addr), updated
     at boot time. This impacts performance, as we have to load an additional
     variable from memory.

		OR

  b) #define RELOC_OFFSET ((PHYSICAL_START & PPC_PIN_SIZE_OFFSET_MASK) - \
                      (KERNELBASE & PPC_PIN_SIZE_OFFSET_MASK))

   This introduces more calculations for doing the translation.

3) Redefine __va() & __pa() with a new variable

i.e,

#define __va(x) ((void *)(unsigned long)((phys_addr_t)(x) + VIRT_PHYS_OFFSET))

where VIRT_PHYS_OFFSET :

#ifdef CONFIG_RELOCATABLE_PPC32
#define VIRT_PHYS_OFFSET virt_phys_offset
#else
#define VIRT_PHYS_OFFSET (KERNELBASE - PHYSICAL_START)
#endif /* CONFIG_RELOCATABLE_PPC32 */

where virt_phy_offset is updated at runtime to :

	Effective KERNELBASE - kernstart_addr.

Taking our example, above:

virt_phys_offset = effective_kernelstart_vaddr - kernstart_addr
		 = 0xc0400000 - 0x400000
		 = 0xc0000000
	and

	__va(0x100000) = 0xc0000000 + 0x100000 = 0xc0100000
	 which is what we want.

I have implemented (3) in the following patch which has same cost of
operation as the existing one.

I have tested the patches on 440x platforms only. However this should
work fine for PPC_47x also, as we only depend on the runtime address
and the current TLB XLAT entry for the startup code, which is available
in r25. I don't have access to a 47x board yet. So, it would be great if
somebody could test this on 47x.

Suzuki Poulose 0f890c8d20 powerpc: Rename mapping based RELOCATABLE to DYNAMIC_MEMSTART for BookE
The current implementation of CONFIG_RELOCATABLE in BookE is based
on mapping the page aligned kernel load address to KERNELBASE. This
approach however is not enough for platforms, where the TLB page size
is large (e.g, 256M on 44x). So we are renaming the RELOCATABLE used
currently in BookE to DYNAMIC_MEMSTART to reflect the actual method.

The CONFIG_RELOCATABLE for PPC32(BookE) based on processing of the
dynamic relocations will be introduced in the later in the patch series.

This change would allow the use of the old method of RELOCATABLE for
platforms which can afford to enforce the page alignment (platforms with
smaller TLB size).

Changes since v3:

* Introduced a new config, NONSTATIC_KERNEL, to denote a kernel which is
  either a RELOCATABLE or DYNAMIC_MEMSTART(Suggested by: Josh Boyer)

Becky Bruce 41151e77a4 powerpc: Hugetlb for BookE
Enable hugepages on Freescale BookE processors.  This allows the kernel to
use huge TLB entries to map pages, which can greatly reduce the number of
TLB misses and the amount of TLB thrashing experienced by applications with
large memory footprints.  Care should be taken when using this on FSL
processors, as the number of large TLB entries supported by the core is low
(16-64) on current processors.

The supported set of hugepage sizes include 4m, 16m, 64m, 256m, and 1g.
Page sizes larger than the max zone size are called "gigantic" pages and
must be allocated on the command line (and cannot be deallocated).

This is currently only fully implemented for Freescale 32-bit BookE
processors, but there is some infrastructure in the code for
64-bit BooKE.

The change to __va and __pa to use PAGE_OFFSET & MEMORY_START causes
problems on the Book-E parts because we don't know MEMORY_START until
after we parse the device tree.  We need __va to work properly to even
parse the device tree so we have a chicken an egg.  So go back to using
he other definition of __va/__pa on CONFIG_BOOKE and use the
PAGE_OFFSET/MEMORY_START version on "Classic" PPC64.

Also updated casts to handle phys_addr_t being a different size from
unsigned long (ie 36-bit physical on PPC32).

David Gibson a4fe3ce769 powerpc/mm: Allow more flexible layouts for hugepage pagetables
Currently each available hugepage size uses a slightly different
pagetable layout: that is, the bottem level table of pointers to
hugepages is a different size, and may branch off from the normal page
tables at a different level.  Every hugepage aware path that needs to
walk the pagetables must therefore look up the hugepage size from the
slice info first, and work out the correct way to walk the pagetables
accordingly.  Future hardware is likely to add more possible hugepage
sizes, more layout options and more mess.

This patch, therefore reworks the handling of hugepage pagetables to
reduce this complexity.  In the new scheme, instead of having to
consult the slice mask, pagetable walking code can check a flag in the
PGD/PUD/PMD entries to see where to branch off to hugepage pagetables,
and the entry also contains the information (eseentially hugepage
shift) necessary to then interpret that table without recourse to the
slice mask.  This scheme can be extended neatly to handle multiple
levels of self-describing "special" hugepage pagetables, although for
now we assume only one level exists.

This approach means that only the pagetable allocation path needs to
know how the pagetables should be set out.  All other (hugepage)
pagetable walking paths can just interpret the structure as they go.

There already was a flag bit in PGD/PUD/PMD entries for hugepage
directory pointers, but it was only used for debug.  We alter that
flag bit to instead be a 0 in the MSB to indicate a hugepage pagetable
pointer (normally it would be 1 since the pointer lies in the linear
mapping).  This means that asm pagetable walking can test for (and
punt on) hugepage pointers with the same test that checks for
unpopulated page directory entries (beq becomes bge), since hugepage
pointers will always be positive, and normal pointers always negative.

While we're at it, we get rid of the confusing (and grep defeating)
#defining of hugepte_shift to be the same thing as mmu_huge_psizes.

Yuri Tikhonov e12401222f powerpc/44x: Support for 256KB PAGE_SIZE
This patch adds support for 256KB pages on ppc44x-based boards.

For simplification of implementation with 256KB pages we still assume
2-level paging. As a side effect this leads to wasting extra memory space
reserved for PTE tables: only 1/4 of pages allocated for PTEs are
actually used. But this may be an acceptable trade-off to achieve the
high performance we have with big PAGE_SIZEs in some applications (e.g.
RAID).

Also with 256KB PAGE_SIZE we increase THREAD_SIZE up to 32KB to minimize
the risk of stack overflows in the cases of on-stack arrays, which size
depends on the page size (e.g. multipage BIOs, NTFS, etc.).

With 256KB PAGE_SIZE we need to decrease the PKMAP_ORDER at least down
to 9, otherwise all high memory (2 ^ 10 * PAGE_SIZE == 256MB) we'll be
occupied by PKMAP addresses leaving no place for vmalloc. We do not
separate PKMAP_ORDER for 256K from 16K/64K PAGE_SIZE here; actually that
value of 10 in support for 16K/64K had been selected rather intuitively.
Thus now for all cases of PAGE_SIZE on ppc44x (including the default, 4KB,
one) we have 512 pages for PKMAP.

Because ELF standard supports only page sizes up to 64K, then you should
use binutils later than 2.17.50.0.3 with '-zmax-page-size' set to 256K
for building applications, which are to be run with the 256KB-page sized
kernel. If using the older binutils, then you should patch them like follows:

One more restriction we currently have with 256KB page sizes is inability
to use shmem safely, so, for now, the 256KB is available only if you turn
the CONFIG_SHMEM option off (another variant is to use BROKEN).
Though, if you need shmem with 256KB pages, you can always remove the !SHMEM
dependency in 'config PPC_256K_PAGES', and use the workaround available here:

Ilya Yanok ca9153a3a2 powerpc/44x: Support 16K/64K base page sizes on 44x
This adds support for 16k and 64k page sizes on PowerPC 44x processors.

The PGDIR table is much smaller than a page when using 16k or 64k
pages (512 and 32 bytes respectively) so we allocate the PGDIR with
kzalloc() instead of __get_free_pages().

One PTE table covers rather a large memory area when using 16k or 64k
pages (32MB or 512MB respectively), so we can easily put FIXMAP and
PKMAP in the area covered by one PTE table.

Kumar Gala a3ba68f969 powerpc: Fix build issue with CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y
There are two issues when we enable CONFIG_RELOCATABLE.  The first is due
to the fact that phys_addr_t is now defined in linux/types.h.  The second
is due to the fact that the DMA code changes expose memstart_addr to
prom_init.c

Stephen Rothwell 463baa8a09 powerpc: fix linux-next build failure
Today's linux-next build (powerpc allyesconfig) failed like this:

In file included from arch/powerpc/include/asm/mmu-hash64.h:17,
                 from arch/powerpc/include/asm/mmu.h:8,

arch/powerpc/include/asm/page.h:77: error: expected '=', ',', ';', 'asm' or '__attribute__' before 'kernstart_addr'

Caused by commit 600715dcdf ("generic: add
phys_addr_t for holding physical addresses") from the tip-core tree.
This only fails if CONFIG_RELOCATABLE is set.

So include that instead of asm/types.h in asm/page.h for
the CONFIG_RELOCATABLE case.

Paul Mackerras 549e8152de powerpc: Make the 64-bit kernel as a position-independent executable
This implements CONFIG_RELOCATABLE for 64-bit by making the kernel as
a position-independent executable (PIE) when it is set.  This involves
processing the dynamic relocations in the image in the early stages of
booting, even if the kernel is being run at the address it is linked at,
since the linker does not necessarily fill in words in the image for
which there are dynamic relocations.  (In fact the linker does fill in
such words for 64-bit executables, though not for 32-bit executables,
so in principle we could avoid calling relocate() entirely when we're
running a 64-bit kernel at the linked address.)

The dynamic relocations are processed by a new function relocate(addr),
where the addr parameter is the virtual address where the image will be
run.  In fact we call it twice; once before calling prom_init, and again
when starting the main kernel.  This means that reloc_offset() returns
0 in prom_init (since it has been relocated to the address it is running
at), which necessitated a few adjustments.

This also changes __va and __pa to use an equivalent definition that is
simpler.  With the relocatable kernel, PAGE_OFFSET and MEMORY_START are
constants (for 64-bit) whereas PHYSICAL_START is a variable (and
KERNELBASE ideally should be too, but isn't yet).

With this, relocatable kernels still copy themselves down to physical
address 0 and run there.

Stephen Rothwell b8b572e101 powerpc: Move include files to arch/powerpc/include/asm
from include/asm-powerpc.  This is the result of a

mkdir arch/powerpc/include/asm
git mv include/asm-powerpc/* arch/powerpc/include/asm

Followed by a few documentation/comment fixups and a couple of places
where <asm-powepc/...> was being used explicitly.  Of the latter only
one was outside the arch code and it is a driver only built for powerpc.
