* [PATCH] lock PTE before updating it in 440/BookE page fault handlerEugene Surovegin2006-03-292-15/+21
| | | | | | | | | | | Fix 44x and BookE page fault handler to correctly lock PTE before trying to pte_update() it, otherwise this PTE might be swapped out after pte_present() check but before pte_uptdate() call, resulting in corrupted PTE. This can happen with enabled preemption and low memory condition. Signed-off-by: Eugene Surovegin <ebs@ebshome.net> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
* ppc: Remove CHRP, POWER3 and POWER4 support from arch/ppcPaul Mackerras2006-03-285-76/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 32-bit CHRP machines are now supported only in arch/powerpc, as are all 64-bit PowerPC processors. This means that we don't use Open Firmware on any platform in arch/ppc any more. This makes PReP support a single-platform option like every other platform support option in arch/ppc now, thus CONFIG_PPC_MULTIPLATFORM is gone from arch/ppc. CONFIG_PPC_PREP is the option that selects PReP support and is generally what has replaced CONFIG_PPC_MULTIPLATFORM within arch/ppc. _machine is all but dead now, being #defined to 0. Updated Makefiles, comments and Kconfig options generally to reflect these changes. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

* [PATCH] ppc: Remove powermac support from ARCH=ppcPaul Mackerras2006-01-151-29/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | This makes it possible to build kernels for PReP and/or CHRP with ARCH=ppc by removing the (non-building) powermac support. It's now also possible to select PReP and CHRP independently. Powermac users should now build with ARCH=powerpc instead of ARCH=ppc.

* [PATCH] ppc32 8xx: update_mmu_cache() needs unconditional tlbieMarcelo Tosatti2005-11-161-12/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently 8xx fails to boot due to endless pagefaults. Seems the bug is exposed by the change which avoids flushing the TLB when not necessary (in case the pte has not changed), introduced recently: __handle_mm_fault(): entry = pte_mkyoung(entry); if (!pte_same(old_entry, entry)) { ptep_set_access_flags(vma, address, pte, entry, write_access); update_mmu_cache(vma, address, entry); lazy_mmu_prot_update(entry); } else { /* * This is needed only for protection faults but the arch code * is not yet telling us if this is a protection fault or not. * This still avoids useless tlb flushes for .text page faults * with threads. */ if (write_access) flush_tlb_page(vma, address); } The "update_mmu_cache()" call was unconditional before, which caused the TLB to be flushed by: if (pfn_valid(pfn)) { struct page *page = pfn_to_page(pfn); if (!PageReserved(page) && !test_bit(PG_arch_1, &page->flags)) { if (vma->vm_mm == current->active_mm) { #ifdef CONFIG_8xx /* On 8xx, cache control instructions (particularly * "dcbst" from flush_dcache_icache) fault as write * operation if there is an unpopulated TLB entry * for the address in question. To workaround that, * we invalidate the TLB here, thus avoiding dcbst * misbehaviour. */ _tlbie(address); #endif __flush_dcache_icache((void *) address); } else flush_dcache_icache_page(page); set_bit(PG_arch_1, &page->flags); } Which worked to due to pure luck: PG_arch_1 was always unset before, but now it isnt. The root of the problem are the changes against the 8xx TLB handlers introduced during v2.6. What happens is the TLBMiss handlers load the zeroed pte into the TLB, causing the TLBError handler to be invoked (thats two TLB faults per pagefault), which then jumps to the generic MM code to setup the pte. The bug is that the zeroed TLB is not invalidated (the same reason for the "dcbst" misbehaviour), resulting in infinite TLBError faults. The "two exception" approach requires a TLB flush (to nuke the zeroed TLB) at each PTE update for correct behaviour: Signed-off-by: Marcelo Tosatti <marcelo.tosatti@cyclades.com> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

| * [PATCH] mm: init_mm without ptlockHugh Dickins2005-10-292-7/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | First step in pushing down the page_table_lock. init_mm.page_table_lock has been used throughout the architectures (usually for ioremap): not to serialize kernel address space allocation (that's usually vmlist_lock), but because pud_alloc,pmd_alloc,pte_alloc_kernel expect caller holds it. Reverse that: don't lock or unlock init_mm.page_table_lock in any of the architectures; instead rely on pud_alloc,pmd_alloc,pte_alloc_kernel to take and drop it when allocating a new one, to check lest a racing task already did. Similarly no page_table_lock in vmalloc's map_vm_area. Some temporary ugliness in __pud_alloc and __pmd_alloc: since they also handle user mms, which are converted only by a later patch, for now they have to lock differently according to whether or not it's init_mm. If sources get muddled, there's a danger that an arch source taking init_mm.page_table_lock will be mixed with common source also taking it (or neither take it). So break the rules and make another change, which should break the build for such a mismatch: remove the redundant mm arg from pte_alloc_kernel (ppc64 scrapped its distinct ioremap_mm in 2.6.13). Exceptions: arm26 used pte_alloc_kernel on user mm, now pte_alloc_map; ia64 used pte_alloc_map on init_mm, now pte_alloc_kernel; parisc had bad args to pmd_alloc and pte_alloc_kernel in unused USE_HPPA_IOREMAP code; ppc64 map_io_page forgot to unlock on failure; ppc mmu_mapin_ram and ppc64 im_free took page_table_lock for no good reason.

* | [PATCH] ppc: make phys_mem_access_prot() work with pfns instead of addressesRoland Dreier2005-10-291-6/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Change the phys_mem_access_prot() function to take a pfn instead of an address. This allows mmap64() to work on /dev/mem for addresses above 4G on 32-bit architectures. We start with a pfn in mmap_mem(), so there's no need to convert to an address; in fact, it's actively bad, since the conversion can overflow when the address is above 4G. Similarly fix the ppc32 page_is_ram() function to avoid a conversion to an address by directly comparing to max_pfn. Working with max_pfn instead of high_memory fixes page_is_ram() to give the right answer for highmem pages.

* [PATCH] ppc32: Kill init on unhandled synchronous signalsPaul Mackerras2005-09-101-5/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is a patch that I have had in my tree for ages. If init causes an exception that raises a signal, such as a SIGSEGV, SIGILL or SIGFPE, and it hasn't registered a handler for it, we don't deliver the signal, since init doesn't get any signals that it doesn't have a handler for. But that means that we just return to userland and generate the same exception again immediately. With this patch we print a message and kill init in this situation. This is very useful when you have a bug in the kernel that means that init doesn't get as far as executing its first instruction. :) Without this patch the system hangs when it gets to starting the userland init; with it you at least get a message giving you a clue about what has gone wrong.

* [PATCH] ppc32: 8xx avoid icbi misbehaviour in __flush_dcache_icache_physAnton Wöllert2005-07-271-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On 8xx, in the case where a pagefault happens for a process who's not the owner of the vma in question (ptrace for instance), the flush operation is performed via the physical address. Unfortunately, that results in a strange, unexplainable "icbi" instruction fault, most likely due to a CPU bug (see oops below). Avoid that by flushing the page via its kernel virtual address.

* [PATCH] 8xx: avoid "dcbst" misbehaviour with unpopulated TLBMarcelo Tosatti2005-06-271-2/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The proposed _tlbie call at update_mmu_cache() is safe because: Addresses for which update_mmu_cache() gets invocated are never inside the static kernel virtual mapping, meaning that there is no risk for the _tlbie() here to be thrashing the pinned entry, as Dan suspected. The intermediate TLB state in which this bug can be triggered is not visible by userspace or any other contexts, except the page fault handling path. So there is no need to worry about userspace dcbxxx users. The other solution to this is to avoid dcbst misbehaviour in the first place, which involves changing in-kernel "dcbst" callers to use 8xx specific SPR's. Summary: On 8xx, cache control instructions (particularly "dcbst" from flush_dcache_icache) fault as write operation if there is an unpopulated TLB entry for the address in question. To workaround that, we invalidate the TLB here, thus avoiding dcbst misbehaviour.

* [PATCH] ppc32: don't call progress functions after bootPaul Mackerras2005-05-201-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On ppc32, the platform code can supply a "progress" function that is used to show progress through the boot. These functions are usually in an init section and so can't be called after the init pages are freed. Now that the cpu bringup code can be called after the system is booted (for hotplug cpu) we can get the situation where the progress function can be called after boot. The simple fix is to set the progress function pointer to NULL when the init pages are freed, and that is what this patch does (note that all callers already check whether the function pointer is NULL before trying to call it).
