* powerpc: Replace mem_init_done with slab_is_available()Michael Ellerman2015-04-101-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | We have a powerpc specific global called mem_init_done which is "set on boot once kmalloc can be called". But that's not *quite* true. We set it at the bottom of mem_init(), and rely on the fact that mm_init() calls kmem_cache_init() immediately after that, and nothing is running in parallel. So replace it with the generic and 100% correct slab_is_available(). Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>
* powerpc: Remove more traces of bootmemMichael Ellerman2014-11-191-3/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Although we are now selecting NO_BOOTMEM, we still have some traces of bootmem lying around. That is because even with NO_BOOTMEM there is still a shim that converts bootmem calls into memblock calls, but ultimately we want to remove all traces of bootmem. Most of the patch is conversions from alloc_bootmem() to memblock_virt_alloc(). In general a call such as: p = (struct foo *)alloc_bootmem(x); Becomes: p = memblock_virt_alloc(x, 0); We don't need the cast because memblock_virt_alloc() returns a void *. The alignment value of zero tells memblock to use the default alignment, which is SMP_CACHE_BYTES, the same value alloc_bootmem() uses. We remove a number of NULL checks on the result of memblock_virt_alloc(). That is because memblock_virt_alloc() will panic if it can't allocate, in exactly the same way as alloc_bootmem(), so the NULL checks are and always have been redundant. The memory returned by memblock_virt_alloc() is already zeroed, so we remove several memsets of the result of memblock_virt_alloc(). Finally we convert a few uses of __alloc_bootmem(x, y, MAX_DMA_ADDRESS) to just plain memblock_virt_alloc(). We don't use memblock_alloc_base() because MAX_DMA_ADDRESS is ~0ul on powerpc, so limiting the allocation to that is pointless, 16XB ought to be enough for anyone.

* powerpc: Remove alloc_maybe_bootmem for zalloc versionMilton Miller2011-05-191-8/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | Replace all remaining callers of alloc_maybe_bootmem with zalloc_maybe_bootmem. The callsite in pci_dn is followed with a memset to clear the memory, and not zeroing at the other callsites in the celleb fake pci code could lead to following uninitialized memory as pointers or even freeing said pointers on error paths.

* [POWERPC] Limit range of __init_ref_ok somewhatStephen Rothwell2007-10-031-0/+15
| | | | | | | | This patch introduces zalloc_maybe_bootmem and uses it so that we don't have to mark a whole (largish) routine as __init_ref_ok. Signed-off-by: Stephen Rothwell <sfr@canb.auug.org.au> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
* [POWERPC] Fix section mismatch in PCI codeStephen Rothwell2007-09-191-0/+14
Create a helper function (alloc_maybe_bootmem) that is marked __init_refok to limit the chances of mistakenly referring to other __init routines.
