sparc64: add support for folded p4d page tables

2020-01-30T10:14:28+00:00

Implement primitives necessary for the 4th level folding, add walks of p4d level where appropriate and replace 5level-fixup.h with pgtable-nop4d.h. Signed-off-by: Mike Rapoport Acked-by: David S. Miller Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

sparc32: use pgtable-nopud instead of 4level-fixup

2019-12-05T03:44:15+00:00

32-bit version of sparc has three-level page tables and can use pgtable-nopud and folding of the upper layers. Replace usage of include/asm-generic/4level-fixup.h with include/asm-generic/pgtable-nopud.h and adjust page table manipulation macros and functions accordingly.

mm: treewide: clarify pgtable_page_{ctor,dtor}() naming

2019-09-26T17:10:44+00:00

The naming of pgtable_page_{ctor,dtor}() seems to have confused a few people, and until recently arm64 used these erroneously/pointlessly for other levels of page table. To make it incredibly clear that these only apply to the PTE level, and to align with the naming of pgtable_pmd_page_{ctor,dtor}(), let's rename them to pgtable_pte_page_{ctor,dtor}(). These changes were generated with the following shell script: ---- git grep -lw 'pgtable_page_.tor' | while read FILE; do sed -i '{s/pgtable_page_ctor/pgtable_pte_page_ctor/}' $FILE; sed -i '{s/pgtable_page_dtor/pgtable_pte_page_dtor/}' $FILE; done ---- ... with the documentation re-flowed to remain under 80 columns, and whitespace fixed up in macros to keep backslashes aligned. There should be no functional change as a result of this patch.

mm: remove quicklist page table caches

2019-09-24T22:54:09+00:00

Patch series "mm: remove quicklist page table caches". A while ago Nicholas proposed to remove quicklist page table caches [1]. I've rebased his patch on the curren upstream and switched ia64 and sh to use generic versions of PTE allocation. [1] https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20190711030339.20892-1-npiggin@gmail.com This patch (of 3): Remove page table allocator "quicklists". These have been around for a long time, but have not got much traction in the last decade and are only used on ia64 and sh architectures. The numbers in the initial commit look interesting but probably don't apply anymore. If anybody wants to resurrect this it's in the git history, but it's unhelpful to have this code and divergent allocator behaviour for minor archs. Also it might be better to instead make more general improvements to page allocator if this is still so slow.

mm, kprobes: generalize and rename notify_page_fault() as kprobe_page_fault()

2019-07-17T02:23:22+00:00

Architectures which support kprobes have very similar boilerplate around calling kprobe_fault_handler(). Use a helper function in kprobes.h to unify them, based on the x86 code. This changes the behaviour for other architectures when preemption is enabled. Previously, they would have disabled preemption while calling the kprobe handler. However, preemption would be disabled if this fault was due to a kprobe, so we know the fault was not due to a kprobe handler and can simply return failure. This behaviour was introduced in commit a980c0ef9f6d ("x86/kprobes: Refactor kprobes_fault() like kprobe_exceptions_notify()") [anshuman.khandual@arm.com: export kprobe_fault_handler()] Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1561133358-8876-1-git-send-email-anshuman.khandual@arm.com Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1560420444-25737-1-git-send-email-anshuman.khandual@arm.com Signed-off-by: Anshuman Khandual Reviewed-by: Dave Hansen Cc: Michal Hocko Cc: Matthew Wilcox Cc: Mark Rutland Cc: Christophe Leroy Cc: Stephen Rothwell Cc: Andrey Konovalov Cc: Michael Ellerman Cc: Paul Mackerras Cc: Russell King Cc: Catalin Marinas Cc: Will Deacon Cc: Tony Luck Cc: Fenghua Yu Cc: Martin Schwidefsky Cc: Heiko Carstens Cc: Yoshinori Sato Cc: "David S.

sparc64: use the generic get_user_pages_fast code

2019-07-12T18:05:44+00:00

The sparc64 code is mostly equivalent to the generic one, minus various bugfixes and two arch overrides that this patch adds to pgtable.h.

Merge branch 'siginfo-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace

2019-07-09T04:48:15+00:00

Pull force_sig() argument change from Eric Biederman: "A source of error over the years has been that force_sig has taken a task parameter when it is only safe to use force_sig with the current task. The force_sig function is built for delivering synchronous signals such as SIGSEGV where the userspace application caused a synchronous fault (such as a page fault) and the kernel responded with a signal. Because the name force_sig does not make this clear, and because the force_sig takes a task parameter the function force_sig has been abused for sending other kinds of signals over the years. Slowly those have been fixed when the oopses have been tracked down. This set of changes fixes the remaining abusers of force_sig and carefully rips out the task parameter from force_sig and friends making this kind of error almost impossible in the future" * 'siginfo-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace: (27 commits) signal/x86: Move tsk inside of CONFIG_MEMORY_FAILURE in do_sigbus signal: Remove the signal number and task parameters from force_sig_info signal: Factor force_sig_info_to_task out of force_sig_info signal: Generate the siginfo in force_sig signal: Move the computation of force into send_signal and correct it. signal: Properly set TRACE_SIGNAL_LOSE_INFO in __send_signal signal: Remove the task parameter from force_sig_fault signal: Use force_sig_fault_to_task for the two calls that don't deliver to current signal: Explicitly call force_sig_fault on current signal/unicore32: Remove tsk parameter from __do_user_fault signal/arm: Remove tsk parameter from __do_user_fault signal/arm: Remove tsk parameter from ptrace_break signal/nds32: Remove tsk parameter from send_sigtrap signal/riscv: Remove tsk parameter from do_trap signal/sh: Remove tsk parameter from force_sig_info_fault signal/um: Remove task parameter from send_sigtrap signal/x86: Remove task parameter from send_sigtrap signal: Remove task parameter from force_sig_mceerr signal: Remove task parameter from force_sig signal: Remove task parameter from force_sigsegv ...

sparc64: Fix regression in non-hypervisor TLB flush xcall

2019-06-03T05:13:40+00:00

Previously, %g2 would end up with the value PAGE_SIZE, but after the commit mentioned below it ends up with the value 1 due to being reused for a different purpose. We need it to be PAGE_SIZE as we use it to step through pages in our demap loop, otherwise we set different flags in the low 12 bits of the address written to, thereby doing things other than a nucleus page flush.

signal: Remove the task parameter from force_sig_fault

2019-05-29T14:31:43+00:00

As synchronous exceptions really only make sense against the current task (otherwise how are you synchronous) remove the task parameter from from force_sig_fault to make it explicit that is what is going on. The two known exceptions that deliver a synchronous exception to a stopped ptraced task have already been changed to force_sig_fault_to_task. The callers have been changed with the following emacs regular expression (with obvious variations on the architectures that take more arguments) to avoid typos: force_sig_fault[(]$[^,]+$[,]$[^,]+$[,]$[^,]+$[,]\W+current[)] -> force_sig_fault(\1,\2,\3) Signed-off-by: "Eric W.
