* [IA64] fix personality(PER_LINUX32) performance issueHuang, Xiaolan2008-05-151-0/+25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The patch aims to fix a performance issue for the syscall personality(PER_LINUX32). On IA-64 box, the syscall personality (PER_LINUX32) has poor performance because it failed to find the Linux/x86 execution domain. Then it tried to load the kernel module however it failed always and it used the default execution domain PER_LINUX instead. Requesting kernel modules is very expensive. It caused the performance issue. (see the function lookup_exec_domain in kernel/exec_domain.c). To resolve the issue, execution domain Linux/x86 is always registered in initialization time for IA-64 architecture.

* hotplug-memory: make online_page() commonJeremy Fitzhardinge2008-04-281-9/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | All architectures use an effectively identical definition of online_page(), so just make it common code. x86-64, ia64, powerpc and sh are actually identical; x86-32 is slightly different. x86-32's differences arise because it puts its hotplug pages in the highmem zone. We can handle this in the generic code by inspecting the page to see if its in highmem, and update the totalhigh_pages count appropriately. This leaves init_32.c:free_new_highpage with a single caller, so I folded it into add_one_highpage_init. I also removed an incorrect comment referring to the NUMA case; any NUMA details have already been dealt with by the time online_page() is called.

* [IA64] Fix NUMA configuration issueZoltan Menyhart2008-04-111-4/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There is a NUMA memory configuration issue in 2.6.24: A 2-node machine of ours has got the following memory layout: Node 0: 0 - 2 Gbytes Node 0: 4 - 8 Gbytes Node 1: 8 - 16 Gbytes Node 0: 16 - 18 Gbytes "efi_memmap_init()" merges the three last ranges into one. "register_active_ranges()" is called as follows: efi_memmap_walk(register_active_ranges, NULL); i.e. once for the 4 - 18 Gbytes range. It picks up the node number from the start address, and registers all the memory for the node #0. "register_active_ranges()" should be called as follows to make sure there is no merged address range at its entry: efi_memmap_walk(filter_memory, register_active_ranges); "filter_memory()" is similar to "filter_rsvd_memory()", but the reserved memory ranges are not filtered out.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Now, arch dependent code around CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTREMOVE is a mess. This patch cleans up them. This is against 2.6.23-rc6-mm1. - fix compile failure on ia64/ CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG && !CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTREMOVE case. - For !CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTREMOVE, add generic no-op remove_memory(), which returns -EINVAL. - removed remove_pages() only used in powerpc. - removed no-op remove_memory() in i386, sh, sparc64, x86_64. - only powerpc returns -ENOSYS at memory hot remove(no-op). changes it to return -EINVAL. Note: Currently, only ia64 supports CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTREMOVE. I welcome other archs if there are requirements and testers.

* flush icache before set_pte() on ia64: flush icache at set_pteKAMEZAWA Hiroyuki2007-10-161-4/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Current ia64 kernel flushes icache by lazy_mmu_prot_update() *after* set_pte(). This is too late. This patch removes lazy_mmu_prot_update and add modfied set_pte() for flushing if necessary. This patch flush icache of a page when new pte has exec bit. && new pte has present bit && new pte is user's page. && (old *ptep is not present || new pte's pfn is not same to old *ptep's ptn) && new pte's page has no Pg_arch_1 bit. Pg_arch_1 is set when a page is cache consistent. I think this condition checks are much easier to understand than considering "Where sync_icache_dcache() should be inserted ?". pte_user() for ia64 was removed by http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/6/12/67 as clean-up. So, I added it again.

This will free up one TLB entry for application, or even kernel if access pattern to per-cpu data area has high temporal locality. Since per-cpu is mapped at the top of region 7 address, we just need to add special case in alt_dtlb_miss. The physical address of per-cpu data is already conveniently stored in IA64_KR(PER_CPU_DATA). Latency for alt_dtlb_miss is not affected as we can hide all the latency. It was measured that alt_dtlb_miss handler has 23 cycles latency before and after the patch. The performance effect is massive for applications that put lots of tlb pressure on CPU. Workload environment like database online transaction processing or application uses tera-byte of memory would benefit the most. Measurement with industry standard database benchmark shown an upward of 1.6% gain. While smaller workloads like cpu, java also showing small improvement.

* | | Make page->private usable in compound pagesChristoph Lameter2007-05-071-1/+1
|/ / | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If we add a new flag so that we can distinguish between the first page and the tail pages then we can avoid to use page->private in the first page. page->private == page for the first page, so there is no real information in there. Freeing up page->private makes the use of compound pages more transparent. They become more usable like real pages. Right now we have to be careful f.e. if we are going beyond PAGE_SIZE allocations in the slab on i386 because we can then no longer use the private field. This is one of the issues that cause us not to support debugging for page size slabs in SLAB. Having page->private available for SLUB would allow more meta information in the page struct. I can probably avoid the 16 bit ints that I have in there right now. Also if page->private is available then a compound page may be equipped with buffer heads. This may free up the way for filesystems to support larger blocks than page size. We add PageTail as an alias of PageReclaim. Compound pages cannot currently be reclaimed. Because of the alias one needs to check PageCompound first.

* | [IA64] bugfix stack layout upside-downKAMEZAWA Hiroyuki2007-03-291-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ia64 expects following vm layout: == low memory [register-stack grows up] [memory-stack grows down] == high memory But the code assigns the base of the register stack at the maximum stack size offset from the fixed address where the stack *might* start. Stack randomization will result in the memory stack starting at a lower address than this, and if the user has set a low stack limit with "ulimit -s", then you can end up with the register stack above the memory stack (or if you were very unlucky right on top of it!). Fix: Calculate the base address for the register stack starting from the actual address of the memory stack.

* | [IA64] min_low_pfn and max_low_pfn calculation fixZou Nan hai2007-03-201-0/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We have seen bad_pte_print when testing crashdump on an SN machine in recent 2.6.20 kernel. There are tons of bad pte print (pfn < max_low_pfn) reports when the crash kernel boots up, all those reported bad pages are inside initmem range; That is because if the crash kernel code and data happens to be at the beginning of the 1st node. build_node_maps in discontig.c will bypass reserved regions with filter_rsvd_memory. Since min_low_pfn is calculated in build_node_map, so in this case, min_low_pfn will be greater than kernel code and data. Because pages inside initmem are freed and reused later, we saw pfn_valid check fail on those pages. I think this theoretically happen on a normal kernel. When I check min_low_pfn and max_low_pfn calculation in contig.c and discontig.c. I found more issues than this. 1. min_low_pfn and max_low_pfn calculation is inconsistent between contig.c and discontig.c, min_low_pfn is calculated as the first page number of boot memmap in contig.c (Why? Though this may work at the most of the time, I don't think it is the right logic). It is calculated as the lowest physical memory page number bypass reserved regions in discontig.c. max_low_pfn is calculated include reserved regions in contig.c. It is calculated exclude reserved regions in discontig.c. 2. If kernel code and data region is happen to be at the begin or the end of physical memory, when min_low_pfn and max_low_pfn calculation is bypassed kernel code and data, pages in initmem will report bad. 3. initrd is also in reserved regions, if it is at the begin or at the end of physical memory, kernel will refuse to reuse the memory. Because the virt_addr_valid check in free_initrd_mem. So it is better to fix and clean up those issues. Calculate min_low_pfn and max_low_pfn in a consistent way.

* | [IA64] register memory ranges in a consistent mannerBob Picco2007-02-051-2/+17
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | While pursuing and unrelated issue with 64Mb granules I noticed a problem related to inconsistent use of add_active_range. There doesn't appear any reason to me why FLATMEM versus DISCONTIG_MEM should register memory to add_active_range with different code. So I've changed the code into a common implementation. The other subtle issue fixed by this patch was calling add_active_range in count_node_pages before granule aligning is performed. We were lucky with 16MB granules but not so with 64MB granules. count_node_pages has reserved regions filtered out and as a consequence linked kernel text and data aren't covered by calls to count_node_pages. So linked kernel regions wasn't reported to add_active_regions. This resulted in free_initmem causing numerous bad_page reports. This won't occur with this patch because now all known memory regions are reported by register_active_ranges.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | set_page_count usage outside mm/ is limited to setting the refcount to 1. Remove set_page_count from outside mm/, and replace those users with init_page_count() and set_page_refcounted().

* [PATCH] mm: init_mm without ptlockHugh Dickins2005-10-291-8/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | First step in pushing down the page_table_lock. init_mm.page_table_lock has been used throughout the architectures (usually for ioremap): not to serialize kernel address space allocation (that's usually vmlist_lock), but because pud_alloc,pmd_alloc,pte_alloc_kernel expect caller holds it. Reverse that: don't lock or unlock init_mm.page_table_lock in any of the architectures; instead rely on pud_alloc,pmd_alloc,pte_alloc_kernel to take and drop it when allocating a new one, to check lest a racing task already did. Similarly no page_table_lock in vmalloc's map_vm_area. Some temporary ugliness in __pud_alloc and __pmd_alloc: since they also handle user mms, which are converted only by a later patch, for now they have to lock differently according to whether or not it's init_mm. If sources get muddled, there's a danger that an arch source taking init_mm.page_table_lock will be mixed with common source also taking it (or neither take it). So break the rules and make another change, which should break the build for such a mismatch: remove the redundant mm arg from pte_alloc_kernel (ppc64 scrapped its distinct ioremap_mm in 2.6.13). Exceptions: arm26 used pte_alloc_kernel on user mm, now pte_alloc_map; ia64 used pte_alloc_map on init_mm, now pte_alloc_kernel; parisc had bad args to pmd_alloc and pte_alloc_kernel in unused USE_HPPA_IOREMAP code; ppc64 map_io_page forgot to unlock on failure; ppc mmu_mapin_ram and ppc64 im_free took page_table_lock for no good reason.

* [PATCH] mm: ia64 use expand_upwardsHugh Dickins2005-10-291-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ia64 has expand_backing_store function for growing its Register Backing Store vma upwards. But more complete code for this purpose is found in the CONFIG_STACK_GROWSUP part of mm/mmap.c. Uglify its #ifdefs further to provide expand_upwards for ia64 as well as expand_stack for parisc. The Register Backing Store vma should be marked VM_ACCOUNT. Implement the intention of growing it only a page at a time, instead of passing an address outside of the vma to handle_mm_fault, with unknown consequences.

* [IA64] Fix nasty VMLPT problem...Peter Chubb2005-08-311-3/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I've solved the problem I was having with the simulator and not booting Debian. The problem is that the number of bits for the virtual linear array short-format VHPT (Virtually mapped linear page table, VMLPT for short) is being tested incorrectly. There are two problems: 1. The PAL call that should tell the kernel the size of the virtual address space isn't implemented for the simulator, so the kernel uses the default 50. This is addressed separately in dc90e95f310f4f821c905b2aec8e9449bb3270fa 2. In arch/ia64/mm/init.c there's code to calcualte the size of the VMLPT based on the number of implemented virtual address bits and the page size. It checks to see if the VMLPT base address overlaps the top of the mapped region, but this check doesn't allow for the address space hole, and in fact will never trigger. Here's an alternative test and panic, that I think is more accurate. Signed-off-by: Peter Chubb <peterc@gelato.unsw.edu.au> Signed-off-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com>
* [IA64] memory-less-nodes repostbob.picco2005-07-061-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I reworked how nodes with only CPUs are treated. The patch below seems simpler to me and has eliminated the complicated routine reassign_cpu_only_nodes. There isn't any longer the requirement to modify ACPI NUMA information which was in large part the complexity introduced in reassign_cpu_only_nodes. This patch will produce a different number of nodes. For example, reassign_cpu_only_nodes would reduce two CPUonly nodes and one memory node configuration to one memory+CPUs node configuration. This patch doesn't change the number of nodes which means the user will see three. Two nodes without memory and one node with all the memory. While doing this patch, I noticed that early_nr_phys_cpus_node isn't serving any useful purpose. It is called once in find_pernode_space but the value isn't used to computer pernode space.

* [IA64] Percpu quicklist for combined allocator for pgd/pmd/pte.Robin Holt2005-04-251-27/+47
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch introduces using the quicklists for pgd, pmd, and pte levels by combining the alloc and free functions into a common set of routines. This greatly simplifies the reading of this header file. This patch is simple but necessary for large numa configurations. It simply ensures that only pages from the local node are added to a cpus quicklist. This prevents the trapping of pages on a remote nodes quicklist by starting a process, touching a large number of pages to fill pmd and pte entries, migrating to another node, and then unmapping or exiting. With those conditions, the pages get trapped and if the machine has more than 100 nodes of the same size, the calculation of the pgtable high water mark will be larger than any single node so page table cache flushing will never occur. I ran lmbench lat_proc fork and lat_proc exec on a zx1 with and without this patch and did not notice any change. On an sn2 machine, there was a slight improvement which is possibly due to pages from other nodes trapped on the test node before starting the run. I did not investigate further. This patch shrinks the quicklist based upon free memory on the node instead of the high/low water marks. I have written it to enable preemption periodically and recalculate the amount to shrink every time we have freed enough pages that the quicklist size should have grown. I rescan the nodes zones each pass because other processess may be draining node memory at the same time as we are adding.

* Linux-2.6.12-rc2v2.6.12-rc2Linus Torvalds2005-04-161-0/+597
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
