Linus Torvalds 12f03ee606 libnvdimm for 4.3:
1/ Introduce ZONE_DEVICE and devm_memremap_pages() as a generic
    mechanism for adding device-driver-discovered memory regions to the
    kernel's direct map.  This facility is used by the pmem driver to
    enable pfn_to_page() operations on the page frames returned by DAX
    ('direct_access' in 'struct block_device_operations'). For now, the
    'memmap' allocation for these "device" pages comes from "System
    RAM".  Support for allocating the memmap from device memory will
    arrive in a later kernel.
 
 2/ Introduce memremap() to replace usages of ioremap_cache() and
    ioremap_wt().  memremap() drops the __iomem annotation for these
    mappings to memory that do not have i/o side effects.  The
    replacement of ioremap_cache() with memremap() is limited to the
    pmem driver to ease merging the api change in v4.3.  Completion of
    the conversion is targeted for v4.4.
 
 3/ Similar to the usage of memcpy_to_pmem() + wmb_pmem() in the pmem
    driver, update the VFS DAX implementation and PMEM api to provide
    persistence guarantees for kernel operations on a DAX mapping.
 
 4/ Convert the ACPI NFIT 'BLK' driver to map the block apertures as
    cacheable to improve performance.
 
 5/ Miscellaneous updates and fixes to libnvdimm including support
    for issuing "address range scrub" commands, clarifying the optimal
    'sector size' of pmem devices, a clarification of the usage of the
    ACPI '_STA' (status) property for DIMM devices, and other minor
    fixes.

Dan Williams 033fbae988 mm: ZONE_DEVICE for "device memory"
While pmem is usable as a block device or via DAX mappings to userspace
there are several usage scenarios that can not target pmem due to its
lack of struct page coverage. In preparation for "hot plugging" pmem
into the vmemmap add ZONE_DEVICE as a new zone to tag these pages
separately from the ones that are subject to standard page allocations.
Importantly "device memory" can be removed at will by userspace
unbinding the driver of the device.

Having a separate zone prevents allocation and otherwise marks these
pages that are distinct from typical uniform memory.  Device memory has
different lifetime and performance characteristics than RAM.  However,
since we have run out of ZONES_SHIFT bits this functionality currently
depends on sacrificing ZONE_DMA.

Tony Luck fc6daaf931 mm/memblock: add extra "flags" to memblock to allow selection of memory based on attribute
Some high end Intel Xeon systems report uncorrectable memory errors as a
recoverable machine check.  Linux has included code for some time to
process these and just signal the affected processes (or even recover
completely if the error was in a read only page that can be replaced by
reading from disk).

But we have no recovery path for errors encountered during kernel code
execution.  Except for some very specific cases were are unlikely to ever
be able to recover.

Enter memory mirroring. Actually 3rd generation of memory mirroing.

Gen1: All memory is mirrored
	Pro: No s/w enabling - h/w just gets good data from other side of the
	     mirror
	Con: Halves effective memory capacity available to OS/applications

Gen2: Partial memory mirror - just mirror memory begind some memory controllers
	Pro: Keep more of the capacity
	Con: Nightmare to enable. Have to choose between allocating from
	     mirrored memory for safety vs. NUMA local memory for performance

Gen3: Address range partial memory mirror - some mirror on each memory
      controller
	Pro: Can tune the amount of mirror and keep NUMA performance
	Con: I have to write memory management code to implement

The current plan is just to use mirrored memory for kernel allocations.
This has been broken into two phases:

1) This patch series - find the mirrored memory, use it for boot time
   allocations

2) Wade into mm/page_alloc.c and define a ZONE_MIRROR to pick up the
   unused mirrored memory from mm/memblock.c and only give it out to
   select kernel allocations (this is still being scoped because
   page_alloc.c is scary).

This patch (of 3):

Add extra "flags" to memblock to allow selection of memory based on
attribute.  No functional changes

David Vrabel f955371ca9 x86: remove the Xen-specific _PAGE_IOMAP PTE flag
The _PAGE_IO_MAP PTE flag was only used by Xen PV guests to mark PTEs
that were used to map I/O regions that are 1:1 in the p2m.  This
allowed Xen to obtain the correct PFN when converting the MFNs read
from a PTE back to their PFN.

Xen guests no longer use _PAGE_IOMAP for this. Instead mfn_to_pfn()
returns the correct PFN by using a combination of the m2p and p2m to
determine if an MFN corresponds to a 1:1 mapping in the the p2m.

Remove _PAGE_IOMAP, replacing it with _PAGE_UNUSED2 to allow for
future uses of the PTE flag.

Yinghai Lu 4e37a89047 x86, mm: Unifying after_bootmem for 32bit and 64bit
after_bootmem has different meaning in 32bit and 64bit.
        32bit: after bootmem is ready
        64bit: after bootmem is distroyed
Let's merget them make 32bit the same as 64bit.

for 32bit, it is mixing alloc_bootmem_pages, and alloc_low_page under
after_bootmem is set or not set.

alloc_bootmem is just wrapper for memblock for x86.

Now we have alloc_low_page() with memblock too. We can drop bootmem path
now, and only alloc_low_page only.

At the same time, we make alloc_low_page could handle real after_bootmem
for 32bit, because alloc_bootmem_pages could fallback to use slab too.

At last move after_bootmem set position for 32bit the same as 64bit.

2. add BUG checking, so next time we could find problem earlier

3. max_low_pfn is not included boundary for low memory mapping.
   We should check from max_low_pfn instead of +1.

4. add print out when some pte really get cleared, or we should use

Yinghai Lu 719272c45b x86, mm: only call early_ioremap_page_table_range_init() once
On 32bit, before patcheset that only set page table for ram, we only
call that one time.

Now, we are calling that during every init_memory_mapping if we have holes
under max_low_pfn.

We should only call it one time after all ranges under max_low_page get
mapped just like we did before.

Also that could avoid the risk to run out of pgt_buf in BRK.

Need to update page_table_range_init() to count the pages for kmap page table
at first, and use new added alloc_low_pages() to get pages in sequence.
That will conform to the requirement that pages need to be in low to high order.

Yinghai Lu 8d57470d8f x86, mm: setup page table in top-down
Get pgt_buf early from BRK, and use it to map PMD_SIZE from top at first.
Then use mapped pages to map more ranges below, and keep looping until
all pages get mapped.

alloc_low_page will use page from BRK at first, after that buffer is used
up, will use memblock to find and reserve pages for page table usage.

Introduce min_pfn_mapped to make sure find new pages from mapped ranges,
that will be updated when lower pages get mapped.

Also add step_size to make sure that don't try to map too big range with
limited mapped pages initially, and increase the step_size when we have
more mapped pages on hand.

We don't need to call pagetable_reserve anymore, reserve work is done
in alloc_low_page() directly.

At last we can get rid of calculation and find early pgt related code.

-v2: update to after fix_xen change,
     also use MACRO for initial pgt_buf size and add comments with it.
-v3: skip big reserved range in memblock.reserved near end.
-v4: don't need fix_xen change now.
-v5: add changelog about moving about reserving pagetable to alloc_low_page.

Yinghai Lu 960ddb4fe7 x86, mm: Align start address to correct big page size
We are going to use buffer in BRK to map small range just under memory top,
and use those new mapped ram to map ram range under it.

The ram range that will be mapped at first could be only page aligned,
but ranges around it are ram too, we could use bigger page to map it to
avoid small page size.

We will adjust page_size_mask in following patch:
	x86, mm: Use big page size for small memory range
to use big page size for small ram range.

Before that patch, this patch will make sure start address to be
aligned down according to bigger page size, otherwise entry in page
page will not have correct value.

Convert x86 to HAVE_MEMBLOCK_NODE_MAP.  The only difference in memory
handling is that allocations can't no longer cross node boundaries
whether they're node affine or not, which shouldn't matter at all.

This conversion will enable further simplification of boot memory

ZONE_DMA is unnecessary for a large number of machines that do not
require less than 32-bit DMA addressing, e.g. ISA legacy DMA or PCI
cards with a restricted DMA address mask.

This patch allows users to disable ZONE_DMA for x86 if they know they
will not be using such devices with their kernel.

This prevents the VM from unnecessarily reserving a ratio of memory
(defaulting to 1/256th of system capacity) with lowmem_reserve_ratio
for such allocations when it will never be used.

call sparse_memory_present_with_active_regions() from paging_init()
similarly to x86-64.

For flat and numaq, this results in exactly the same memory_present()
calls.  For srat, if there are multiple memory chunks for a node,
after this change, memory_present() will be called separately for each
chunk instead of being called once to encompass the whole range, which
doesn't cause any harm and actually is the better behavior.

Matthieu Castet 5bd5a45266 x86: Add NX protection for kernel data
This patch expands functionality of CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA to set main
(static) kernel data area as NX.

The following steps are taken to achieve this:

 1. Linker script is adjusted so .text always starts and ends on a page bound
 2. Linker script is adjusted so .rodata always start and end on a page boundary
 3. NX is set for all pages from _etext through _end in mark_rodata_ro.
 4. free_init_pages() sets released memory NX in arch/x86/mm/init.c
 5. bios rom is set to x when pcibios is used.

The results of patch application may be observed in the diff of kernel page
table dumps:

Borislav Petkov b40827fa72 x86-32, mm: Add an initial page table for core bootstrapping
This patch adds an initial page table with low mappings used exclusively
for booting APs/resuming after ACPI suspend/machine restart. After this,
there's no need to add low mappings to swapper_pg_dir and zap them later
or create own swsusp PGD page solely for ACPI sleep needs - we have
initial_page_table for that.

Yinghai Lu 1d931264af x86-32, memblock: Make add_highpages honor early reserved ranges
Originally the only early reserved range that is overlapped with high
pages is "KVA RAM", but we already do remove that from the active ranges.

However, It turns out Xen could have that kind of overlapping to support memory
ballooning.x

So we need to make add_highpage_with_active_regions() to subtract
memblock reserved just like low ram; this is the proper design anyway.

In this patch, refactering get_freel_all_memory_range() to make it can
be used by add_highpage_with_active_regions().  Also we don't need to
remove "KVA RAM" from active ranges.
