Moreover, not using current_thread_info() at all ends up with better assembler - we need a location very close to the top of kernel stack page and it's actually better to do or with 0x1fff, followed be subtracting a small constant than and with ~0x1fff, followed by adding a large one. Both & and | would be a couple of insns (mvn lsr/mvn lsl for |, a pair of bic for &), but the following addition would cost a pair of add while the subtraction ends up as a single sub.

Our PMD entries are 32-bits each, so we use a special encoding. The lowest bit, PMD_ISHUGE, determines the interpretation. This is possible because sparc64's page tables are purely software entities so we can use whatever encoding scheme we want. We just have to make the TLB miss assembler page table walkers aware of the layout. set_pmd_at() works much like set_pte_at() but it has to operate in two page from a table of non-huge PTEs, so we have to queue up TLB flushes based upon what mappings are valid in the PTE table. In the second regime we are going from huge-page to non-huge-page, and in that case we need only queue up a single TLB flush to push out the huge page mapping. We still have 5 bits remaining in the huge PMD encoding so we can very likely support any new pieces of THP state tracking that might get added in the future. With lots of help from Johannes Weiner.

This never got noticed because X86 implements update_mmu_cache() as a macro and thus we don't get any type checking, and X86 is the only architecture which supports transparent huge pages currently. Before other architectures can support transparent huge pages properly we need to add a new interface which will take a PMD pointer as the third argument rather than a PTE pointer.

This is in order to facilitate transparent huge page support, which works much better if our PMDs cover 4MB instead of 8MB. What we do is have a one-behind cache for PTE table allocations in the mm struct. This logic triggers only on allocations. For example, we don't try to keep track of free'd up page table blocks in the style that the s390 port does. There were only two slightly annoying aspects to this change: 1) Changing pgtable_t to be a "pte_t *". There's all of this special logic in the TLB free paths that needed adjustments, as did the PMD populate interfaces. 2) init_new_context() needs to zap the pointer, since the mm struct just gets copied from the parent on fork.

| | * | | | sparc64: Halve the size of PTE tablesDavid Miller2012-10-092-19/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The reason we want to do this is to facilitate transparent huge page support. Right now PMD's cover 8MB of address space, and our huge page size is 4MB. The current transparent hugepage support is not able to handle HPAGE_SIZE != PMD_SIZE. So make PTE tables be sized to half of a page instead of a full page. We can still map properly the whole supported virtual address range which on sparc64 requires 44 bits. Add a compile time CPP test which ensures that this requirement is always met. There is a minor inefficiency added by this change. We only use half of the page for PTE tables. It's not trivial to use only half of the page yet still get all of the pgtable_page_{ctor,dtor}() stuff working properly. It is doable, and that will come in a subsequent change.

And x86 box cannot unregister iomem_resource. "Trying to free nonexistent resource <XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX-YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY>" release_mem_region() has been changed to be called in each PAGES_PER_SECTION by commit de7f0cba9678 ("memory hotplug: release memory regions in PAGES_PER_SECTION chunks"). Because powerpc registers iomem_resource in each PAGES_PER_SECTION chunk. But when I hot add memory on x86 box, iomem_resource is register in each _CRS not PAGES_PER_SECTION chunk. So x86 box unregisters iomem_resource. The patch fixes the problem.

For pmds that's equivalent and pmd_none is quicker so using pmd_none is better. However (unless we delete pmd_present) we should provide an accurate pmd_present too. This will avoid the risk of code thinking the pmd is non present because it's under __split_huge_page_map, see the pmd_mknotpresent there and the comment above it. If the page has been mprotected as PROT_NONE, it would also lead to a pmd_present false negative in the same way as the race with split_huge_page. Because the PSE bit stays on at all times (both during split_huge_page and when the _PAGE_PROTNONE bit get set), we could only check for the PSE bit, but checking the PROTNONE bit too is still good to remember pmd_present must always keep PROT_NONE into account. This explains a not reproducible BUG_ON that was seldom reported on the lists. The same issue is in pmd_large, it would go wrong with both PROT_NONE and if it races with split_huge_page.

This may cause zone->present_pages less than it should be. For example, numa node 1 has ZONE_NORMAL and ZONE_MOVABLE, it's memmap and other bootmem will be allocated from ZONE_MOVABLE, so ZONE_NORMAL's present_pages should be spanned pages - absent pages, but now it also minus memmap pages(free_area_init_core), which are actually allocated from ZONE_MOVABLE. When offlining all memory of a zone, this will cause zone->present_pages less than 0, because present_pages is unsigned long type, it is actually a very large integer, it indirectly caused zone->watermark[WMARK_MIN] becomes a large integer(setup_per_zone_wmarks()), than cause totalreserve_pages become a large integer(calculate_totalreserve_pages()), and finally cause memory allocating failure when fork process(__vm_enough_memory()). [root@localhost ~]# dmesg -bash: fork: Cannot allocate memory I think the bug described in http://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=134502182714186&w=2 is also caused by wrong zone present pages. This patch intends to fix-up zone->present_pages when memory are freed to buddy system on x86_64 and IA64 platforms.

The retry can break state machine of .fault. In filemap_fault, if page is miss, ra->mmap_miss is increased. In the second try, since the page is in page cache now, ra->mmap_miss is decreased. And these are done in one fault, so we can't detect random mmap file access. Add a new flag to indicate .fault is tried once. In the second try, skip ra->mmap_miss decreasing. The filemap_fault state machine is ok with it.
