native_hpte_clear() is called in real mode from two places:
- Early in boot during htab initialisation if firmware assisted dump is
active.
- Late in the kexec path.
In both contexts there is no need to disable interrupts are they are
already disabled. Furthermore, locking around the tlbie() is only required
for pre POWER5 hardware.
On POWER5 or newer hardware concurrent tlbie()s work as expected and on pre
POWER5 hardware concurrent tlbie()s could result in deadlock. This code
would only be executed at crashdump time, during which all bets are off,
concurrent tlbie()s are unlikely and taking locks is unsafe therefore the
best course of action is to simply do nothing. Concurrent tlbie()s are not
possible in the first case as secondary CPUs have not come up yet.

If we had secondary hash flag set, we ended up modifying hash value in
the updatepp code path. Hence with a failed updatepp we will be using
a wrong hash value for the following hash insert. Fix this by
recomputing hash before insert.
Without this patch we can end up with using wrong slot number in linux
pte. That can result in us missing an hash pte update or invalidate
which can cause memory corruption or even machine check.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm
Pull libnvdimm updates from Dan Williams:
"This update has successfully completed a 0day-kbuild run and has
appeared in a linux-next release. The changes outside of the typical
drivers/nvdimm/ and drivers/acpi/nfit.[ch] paths are related to the
removal of IORESOURCE_CACHEABLE, the introduction of memremap(), and
the introduction of ZONE_DEVICE + devm_memremap_pages().
Summary:
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- Convert the ACPI NFIT 'BLK' driver to map the block apertures as
cacheable to improve performance.
- 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"

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.

In some situations, a NUMA guest that supports
ibm,dynamic-memory-reconfiguration node will end up having flat NUMA
distances between nodes. This is because of two problems in the
current code.
1) Different representations of associativity lists.
There is an assumption about the associativity list in
initialize_distance_lookup_table(). Associativity list has two forms:
a) [cpu,memory]@x/ibm,associativity has following
format:
<N> <N integers>
b) ibm,dynamic-reconfiguration-memory/ibm,associativity-lookup-arrays
<M> <N> <M associativity lists each having N integers>
M = the number of associativity lists
N = the number of entries per associativity list
Fix initialize_distance_lookup_table() so that it does not assume
"case a". And update the caller to skip the length field before
sending the associativity list.
2) Distance table not getting updated from drconf path.
Node distance table will not get initialized in certain cases as
ibm,dynamic-reconfiguration-memory path does not initialize the
lookup table.
Call initialize_distance_lookup_table() from drconf path with
appropriate associativity list.

The relation between CONFIG_PPC_HAS_HASH_64K and CONFIG_PPC_64K_PAGES is
painfully complicated.
But if we rearrange it enough we can see that PPC_HAS_HASH_64K
essentially depends on PPC_STD_MMU_64 && PPC_64K_PAGES.
We can then notice that PPC_HAS_HASH_64K is used in files that are only
built for PPC_STD_MMU_64, meaning it's equivalent to PPC_64K_PAGES.
So replace all uses and drop it.

Back in the olden days we added support for using 64K pages to map the
SPU (Synergistic Processing Unit) local store on Cell, when the main
kernel was using 4K pages.
This was useful at the time because distros were using 4K pages, but
using 64K pages on the SPUs could reduce TLB pressure there.
However these days the number of Cell users is approaching zero, and
supporting this option adds unpleasant complexity to the memory
management code.
So drop the option, CONFIG_SPU_FS_64K_LS, and all related code.

It makes no sense to put the instructions for calculating the lock
value (cpu number + 1) and the clearing of eq bit of cr1 in lbarx/stbcx
loop. And when the lock is acquired by the other thread, the current
lock value has no chance to equal with the lock value used by current
cpu. So we can skip the comparing for these two lock values in the

In CoreNet systems it is not allowed to mix M and non-M mappings to the
same memory, and coherent DMA accesses are considered to be M mappings
for this purpose. Ignoring this has been observed to cause hard
lockups in non-SMP kernels on e6500.
Furthermore, e6500 implements the LRAT (logical to real address table)
which allows KVM guests to control the WIMGE bits. This means that
KVM cannot force the M bit on the way it usually does, so the guest had
better set it itself.

Pull module_init replacement part two from Paul Gortmaker:
"Replace module_init with appropriate alternate initcall in non
modules.
This series converts non-modular code that is using the module_init()
call to hook itself into the system to instead use one of our
alternate priority initcalls.
Unlike the previous series that used device_initcall and hence was a
runtime no-op, these commits change to one of the alternate initcalls,
because (a) we have them and (b) it seems like the right thing to do.
For example, it would seem logical to use arch_initcall for arch
specific setup code and fs_initcall for filesystem setup code.
This does mean however, that changes in the init ordering will be
taking place, and so there is a small risk that some kind of implicit
init ordering issue may lie uncovered. But I think it is still better
to give these ones sensible priorities than to just assign them all to
device_initcall in order to exactly preserve the old ordering.
Thad said, we have already made similar changes in core kernel code in
commit c96d6660dc65 ("kernel: audit/fix non-modular users of
module_init in core code") without any regressions reported, so this
type of change isn't without precedent. It has also got the same
local testing and linux-next coverage as all the other pull requests
that I'm sending for this merge window have got.

Architectures like ppc64 [1] need to do special things while clearing pmd
before a collapse. For them this operation is largely different from a
normal hugepage pte clear. Hence add a separate function to clear pmd
before collapse. After this patch pmdp_* functions operate only on
hugepage pte, and not on regular pmd_t values pointing to page table.
[1] ppc64 needs to invalidate all the normal page pte mappings we already
have inserted in the hardware hash page table. But before doing that we
need to make sure there are no parallel hash page table insert going on.
So we need to do a kick_all_cpus_sync() before flushing the older hash
table entries. By moving this to a separate function we capture these
details and mention how it is different from a hugepage pte clear.
This patch is a cleanup and only does code movement for clarity. There
should not be any change in functionality.

The hugetlbpage.o is obj-y (always built in). It will never
be modular, so using module_init as an alias for __initcall is
somewhat misleading.
Fix this up now, so that we can relocate module_init from
init.h into module.h in the future. If we don't do this, we'd
have to add module.h to obviously non-modular code, and that
would be a worse thing.
Note that direct use of __initcall is discouraged, vs. one
of the priority categorized subgroups. As __initcall gets
mapped onto device_initcall, our use of arch_initcall (which
makes sense for arch code) will thus change this registration
from level 6-device to level 3-arch (i.e. slightly earlier).
However no observable impact of that small difference has
been observed during testing, or is expected.

We are adding support for DMA memory pre-registration to be used in
conjunction with VFIO. The idea is that the userspace which is going to
run a guest may want to pre-register a user space memory region so
it all gets pinned once and never goes away. Having this done,
a hypervisor will not have to pin/unpin pages on every DMA map/unmap
request. This is going to help with multiple pinning of the same memory.
Another use of it is in-kernel real mode (mmu off) acceleration of
DMA requests where real time translation of guest physical to host
physical addresses is non-trivial and may fail as linux ptes may be
temporarily invalid. Also, having cached host physical addresses
(compared to just pinning at the start and then walking the page table
again on every H_PUT_TCE), we can be sure that the addresses which we put
into TCE table are the ones we already pinned.
This adds a list of memory regions to mm_context_t. Each region consists
of a header and a list of physical addresses. This adds API to:
1. register/unregister memory regions;
2. do final cleanup (which puts all pre-registered pages);
3. do userspace to physical address translation;
4. manage usage counters; multiple registration of the same memory
is allowed (once per container).
This implements 2 counters per registered memory region:
- @mapped: incremented on every DMA mapping; decremented on unmapping;
initialized to 1 when a region is just registered; once it becomes zero,
no more mappings allowe;
- @used: incremented on every "register" ioctl; decremented on
"unregister"; unregistration is allowed for DMA mapped regions unless
it is the very last reference. For the very last reference this checks
that the region is still mapped and returns -EBUSY so the userspace
gets to know that memory is still pinned and unregistration needs to
be retried; @used remains 1.
Host physical addresses are stored in vmalloc'ed array. In order to
access these in the real mode (mmu off), there is a real_vmalloc_addr()
helper. In-kernel acceleration patchset will move it from KVM to MMU code.

This enables us to understand how many hash fault we are taking
when running benchmarks.
For ex:
-bash-4.2# ./perf stat -e powerpc:hash_fault -e page-faults /tmp/ebizzy.ppc64 -S 30 -P -n 1000
...
Performance counter stats for '/tmp/ebizzy.ppc64 -S 30 -P -n 1000':
1,10,04,075 powerpc:hash_fault
1,10,03,429 page-faults
30.865978991 seconds time elapsed
NOTE:
The impact of the tracepoint was not noticeable when running test. It was
within the run-time variance of the test. For ex:
without-patch:
--------------
Performance counter stats for './a.out 3000 300':
643 page-faults # 0.089 M/sec

the handler
Introduce faulthandler_disabled() and use it to check for irq context and
disabled pagefaults (via pagefault_disable()) in the pagefault handlers.
Please note that we keep the in_atomic() checks in place - to detect
whether in irq context (in which case preemption is always properly
disabled).
In contrast, preempt_disable() should never be used to disable pagefaults.
With !CONFIG_PREEMPT_COUNT, preempt_disable() doesn't modify the preempt
counter, and therefore the result of in_atomic() differs.
We validate that condition by using might_fault() checks when calling
might_sleep().
Therefore, add a comment to faulthandler_disabled(), describing why this
is needed.
faulthandler_disabled() and pagefault_disable() are defined in
linux/uaccess.h, so let's properly add that include to all relevant files.
This patch is based on a patch from Thomas Gleixner.

The existing code relies on pagefault_disable() implicitly disabling
preemption, so that no schedule will happen between kmap_atomic() and
kunmap_atomic().
Let's make this explicit, to prepare for pagefault_disable() not
touching preemption anymore.

Serialize against find_linux_pte_or_hugepte() which does lock-less
lookup in page tables with local interrupts disabled. For huge pages it
casts pmd_t to pte_t. Since the format of pte_t is different from pmd_t
we want to prevent transit from pmd pointing to page table to pmd
pointing to huge page (and back) while interrupts are disabled. We
clear pmd to possibly replace it with page table pointer in different
code paths. So make sure we wait for the parallel
find_linux_pte_or_hugepage() to finish.
Without this patch, a find_linux_pte_or_hugepte() running in parallel to
__split_huge_zero_page_pmd() or do_huge_pmd_wp_page_fallback() or
zap_huge_pmd() can run into the above issue. With
__split_huge_zero_page_pmd() and do_huge_pmd_wp_page_fallback() we clear
the hugepage pte before inserting the pmd entry with a regular pgtable
address. Such a clear need to wait for the parallel
find_linux_pte_or_hugepte() to finish.
With zap_huge_pmd(), we can run into issues, with a hugepage pte getting
zapped due to a MADV_DONTNEED while other cpu fault it in as small
pages.

We can disable a THP split or a hugepage collapse by disabling irq.
We do send IPI to all the cpus in the early part of split/collapse,
and disabling local irq ensure we don't make progress with
split/collapse. If the THP is getting split we return NULL from
find_linux_pte_or_hugepte(). For all the current callers it should be ok.
We need to be careful if we want to use returned pte_t pointer outside
the irq disabled region. W.r.t to THP split, the pfn remains the same,
but then a hugepage collapse will result in a pfn change. There are
few steps we can take to avoid a hugepage collapse.One way is to take page
reference inside the irq disable region. Other option is to take
mmap_sem so that a parallel collapse will not happen. We can also
disable collapse by taking pmd_lock. Another method used by kvm
subsystem is to check whether we had a mmu_notifer update in between
using mmu_notifier_retry().

Commit dc6c9a35b66b5 ("mm: account pmd page tables to the process")
added a counter that is incremented whenever a PMD is allocated and
decremented whenever a PMD is freed. For hugepages on PPC, common code
is used to allocated PMDs, but arch-specific code is used to free PMDs.
This results in kernel output such as "BUG: non-zero nr_pmds on freeing
mm: 1" when using hugepages.
Update the PPC hugepage PMD freeing code to decrement the count, just
as the above commit did for free_pmd_range().

When an architecture fully supports randomizing the ELF load location,
a per-arch mmap_rnd() function is used to find a randomized mmap base.
In preparation for randomizing the location of ET_DYN binaries
separately from mmap, this renames and exports these functions as
arch_mmap_rnd(). Additionally introduces CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_ELF_RANDOMIZE
for describing this feature on architectures that support it
(which is a superset of ARCH_BINFMT_ELF_RANDOMIZE_PIE, since s390
already supports a separated ET_DYN ASLR from mmap ASLR without the
ARCH_BINFMT_ELF_RANDOMIZE_PIE logic).

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().
