* mm/hugetlb: remove arch_prepare/release_hugepage from arch headersDominik Dingel2015-06-261-9/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Nobody used these hooks so they were removed from common code, and can now be removed from the architectures.

* mm/hugetlb: add more arch-defined huge_pte functionsGerald Schaefer2013-04-301-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit abf09bed3cce ("s390/mm: implement software dirty bits") introduced another difference in the pte layout vs. the pmd layout on s390, thoroughly breaking the s390 support for hugetlbfs. This requires replacing some more pte_xxx functions in mm/hugetlbfs.c with a huge_pte_xxx version. This patch introduces those huge_pte_xxx functions and their generic implementation in asm-generic/hugetlb.h, which will now be included on all architectures supporting hugetlbfs apart from s390. This change will be a no-op for those architectures.

* MIPS: Avoid mcheck by flushing page range in huge_ptep_set_access_flags()David Daney2012-12-041-1/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Problem: 1) Huge page mapping of anonymous memory is initially invalid. Will be faulted in by copy-on-write mechanism. 2) Userspace attempts store at the end of the huge mapping. 3) TLB Refill exception handler fill TLB with a normal (4K sized) invalid page at the end of the huge mapping virtual address range. 4) Userspace restarted, and re-attempts the store at the end of the huge mapping. 5) Page from #3 is invalid, we get a fault and go to the hugepage fault handler. This tries to map a huge page and calls huge_ptep_set_access_flags() to install the mapping. 6) We just call the generic ptep_set_access_flags() to set up the page tables, but the flush there assumes a normal (4K sized) page and only tries to flush the first part of the huge page virtual address out of the TLB, since the existing entry from step #3 doesn't conflict, nothing is flushed. 7) We attempt to load the mapping into the TLB, but because it conflicts with the entry from step #3, we get a Machine Check exception. The fix: Flush the entire rage covered by the huge page in huge_ptep_set_access_flags(), and remove the optimization in local_flush_tlb_range() so that the flush actually does the correct thing.

* mm: hugetlb: add arch hook for clearing page flags before entering poolWill Deacon2012-10-091-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The core page allocator ensures that page flags are zeroed when freeing pages via free_pages_check. A number of architectures (ARM, PPC, MIPS) rely on this property to treat new pages as dirty with respect to the data cache and perform the appropriate flushing before mapping the pages into userspace. This can lead to cache synchronisation problems when using hugepages, since the allocator keeps its own pool of pages above the usual page allocator and does not reset the page flags when freeing a page into the pool. This patch adds a new architecture hook, arch_clear_hugepage_flags, so that architectures which rely on the page flags being in a particular state for fresh allocations can adjust the flags accordingly when a page is freed into the pool.

* MIPS: Hugetlb: Keep TLB cache hot while flushingHillf Danton2011-12-071-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | If we only flush the TLB of the given huge page, the TLB cache remains hot for the relevant mm as it is, and less will be refilled after flush, huge or not.
