sparc64: fix compile warning section mismatch in find_node()

2016-11-14T18:40:46+00:00

A compile warning is introduced by a commit to fix the find_node(). This patch fix the compile warning by moving find_node() into __init section. Because find_node() is only used by memblock_nid_range() which is only used by a __init add_node_ranges(). find_node() and memblock_nid_range() should also be inside __init section.

sparc64: Fix find_node warning if numa node cannot be found

When booting up LDOM, find_node() warns that a physical address doesn't match a NUMA node.

However, LDOM mdesc can contain single latency-group with multiple memory latency nodes. If the address doesn't match the best latency node within node_masks[], it should check for an alternative via mdesc. The warning message should only be printed if the address doesn't match any node_masks[] nor within mdesc. To minimize the impact of searching mdesc every time, the last matched mask and index is stored in a variable.

sparc64: Handle extremely large kernel TLB range flushes more gracefully.

2016-10-27T16:11:05+00:00

When the vmalloc area gets fragmented, and because the firmware mapping area sits between where modules live and the vmalloc area, we can sometimes receive requests for enormous kernel TLB range flushes. When this happens the cpu just spins flushing billions of pages and this triggers the NMI watchdog and other problems. We took care of this on the TSB side by doing a linear scan of the table once we pass a certain threshold. Do something similar for the TLB flush, however we are limited by the TLB flush facilities provided by the different chip variants. First of all we use an (mostly arbitrary) cut-off of 256K which is about 32 pages. This can be tuned in the future. The huge range code path for each chip works as follows: 1) On spitfire we flush all non-locked TLB entries using diagnostic acceses. 2) On cheetah we use the "flush all" TLB flush. 3) On sun4v/hypervisor we do a TLB context flush on context 0, which unlike previous chips does not remove "permanent" or locked entries. We could probably do something better on spitfire, such as limiting the flush to kernel TLB entries or even doing range comparisons. However that probably isn't worth it since those chips are old and the TLB only had 64 entries. Reported-by: James Clarke Tested-by: James Clarke Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

sparc64: Fix illegal relative branches in hypervisor patched TLB cross-call code.

2016-10-26T17:20:14+00:00

Just like the non-cross-call TLB flush handlers, the cross-call ones need to avoid doing PC-relative branches outside of their code blocks. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

sparc64: Handle extremely large kernel TSB range flushes sanely.

2016-10-26T02:43:17+00:00

If the number of pages we are flushing is more than twice the number of entries in the TSB, just scan the TSB table for matches rather than probing each and every page in the range. Based upon a patch and report by James Clarke. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

sparc64: Fix illegal relative branches in hypervisor patched TLB code.

2016-10-25T23:23:26+00:00

When we copy code over to patch another piece of code, we can only use PC-relative branches that target code within that piece of code. Such PC-relative branches cannot be made to external symbols because the patch moves the location of the code and thus modifies the relative address of external symbols. Use an absolute jmpl to fix this problem. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

mm: replace get_user_pages_unlocked() write/force parameters with gup_flags

2016-10-18T21:13:37+00:00

This removes the 'write' and 'force' use from get_user_pages_unlocked() and replaces them with 'gup_flags' to make the use of FOLL_FORCE explicit in callers as use of this flag can result in surprising behaviour (and hence bugs) within the mm subsystem.

sparc: migrate exception table users off module.h and onto extable.h

2016-10-06T05:42:30+00:00

These files were only including module.h for exception table related functions. We've now separated that content out into its own file "extable.h" so now move over to that and avoid all the extra header content in module.h that we don't really need to compile these files.
