394e3902c5 [PATCH] more for_each_cpu() conversions
When we stop allocating percpu memory for not-possible CPUs we must not touch
the percpu data for not-possible CPUs at all.  The correct way of doing this
is to test cpu_possible() or to use for_each_cpu().

This patch is a kernel-wide sweep of all instances of NR_CPUS.  I found very
few instances of this bug, if any.  But the patch converts lots of open-coded
test to use the preferred helper macros.

42b88befd6 [PATCH] hugepage: is_aligned_hugepage_range() cleanup
Quite a long time back, prepare_hugepage_range() replaced
is_aligned_hugepage_range() as the callback from mm/mmap.c to arch code to
verify if an address range is suitable for a hugepage mapping.
is_aligned_hugepage_range() stuck around, but only to implement
prepare_hugepage_range() on archs which didn't implement their own.

Most archs (everything except ia64 and powerpc) used the same
implementation of is_aligned_hugepage_range().  On powerpc, which
implements its own prepare_hugepage_range(), the custom version was never
used.

In addition, "is_aligned_hugepage_range()" was a bad name, because it
suggests it returns true iff the given range is a good hugepage range,
whereas in fact it returns 0-or-error (so the sense is reversed).

This patch cleans up by abolishing is_aligned_hugepage_range().  Instead
prepare_hugepage_range() is defined directly.  Most archs use the default
version, which simply checks the given region is aligned to the size of a
hugepage.  ia64 and powerpc define custom versions.  The ia64 one simply
checks that the range is in the correct address space region in addition to
being suitably aligned.  The powerpc version (just as previously) checks
for suitable addresses, and if necessary performs low-level MMU frobbing to
set up new areas for use by hugepages.

No libhugetlbfs testsuite regressions on ppc64 (POWER5 LPAR).

so taking advantage of this can save many instructions

a91690ddd0 [SPARC64]: Top-down address space allocation for 32-bit tasks.
Currently allocations are very constrained for 32-bit processes.
It grows down-up from 0x70000000 to 0xf0000000 which gives about
2GB of stack + dynamic mmap() space.

So support the top-down method, and we need to override the
generic helper function in order to deal with D-cache coloring.

With these changes I was able to squeeze out a mmap() just over
3.6GB in size in a 32-bit process.

7a1ac52641 [SPARC64]: Fix and re-enable dynamic TSB sizing.
This is good for up to %50 performance improvement of some test cases.
The problem has been the race conditions, and hopefully I've plugged
them all up here.

1) There was a serious race in switch_mm() wrt. lazy TLB
   switching to and from kernel threads.

   We could erroneously skip a tsb_context_switch() and thus
   use a stale TSB across a TSB grow event.

   There is a big comment now in that function describing
   exactly how it can happen.

2) All code paths that do something with the TSB need to be
   guarded with the mm->context.lock spinlock.  This makes
   page table flushing paths properly synchronize with both
   TSB growing and TLB context changes.

3) TSB growing events are moved to the end of successful fault
   processing.  Previously it was in update_mmu_cache() but
   that is deadlock prone.  At the end of do_sparc64_fault()
   we hold no spinlocks that could deadlock the TSB grow
   sequence.  We also have dropped the address space semaphore.

While we're here, add prefetching to the copy_tsb() routine
and put it in assembler into the tsb.S file.  This piece of
code is quite time critical.

There are some small negative side effects to this code which
can be improved upon.  In particular we grab the mm->context.lock
even for the tsb insert done by update_mmu_cache() now and that's
a bit excessive.  We can get rid of that locking, and the same
lock taking in flush_tsb_user(), by disabling PSTATE_IE around
the whole operation including the capturing of the tsb pointer
and tsb_nentries value.  That would work because anyone growing
the TSB won't free up the old TSB until all cpus respond to the
TSB change cross call.

I'm not quite so confident in that optimization to put it in
right now, but eventually we might be able to and the description
is here for reference.

This code seems very solid now.  It passes several parallel GCC
bootstrap builds, and our favorite "nut cruncher" stress test which is
a full "make -j8192" build of a "make allmodconfig" kernel.  That puts
about 256 processes on each cpu's run queue, makes lots of process cpu
migrations occur, causes lots of page table and TLB flushing activity,
incurs many context version number changes, and it swaps the machine
real far out to disk even though there is 16GB of ram on this test
system. :-)

17b0e199a1 [SPARC64]: Fix 32-bit truncation which broke sparsemem.
The page->flags manipulations done by the D-cache dirty
state tracking was broken because the constants were not
marked with "UL" to make them 64-bit, which means we were
clobbering the upper 32-bits of page->flags all the time.

This doesn't jive well with sparsemem which stores the
section and indexing information in the top 32-bits of
page->flags.

This is yet another sparc64 bug which has been with us
forever.

While we're here, tidy up some things in bootmem_init()
and paginig_init():

1) Pass min_low_pfn to init_bootmem_node(), it's identical
   to (phys_base >> PAGE_SHIFT) but we should use consistent
   with the variable names we print in CONFIG_BOOTMEM_DEBUG

2) max_mapnr, although no longer used, was being set
   inaccurately, we shouldn't subtract pfn_base any more.

3) All the games with phys_base in the zones_*[] arrays
   we pass to free_area_init_node() are no longer necessary.

Thanks to Josh Grebe and Fabbione for the bug reports
and testing.  Fix also verified locally on an SB2500

3cab0c3e86 [SPARC64]: More SUN4V cpu mondo bug fixing.
This cpu mondo sending interface isn't all that easy to
use correctly...

We were clearing out the wrong bits from the "mask" after getting
something other than EOK from the hypervisor.

It turns out the hypervisor can just be resent the same cpu_list[]
array, with the 0xffff "done" entries still in there, and it will do
the right thing.

So don't update or try to rebuild the cpu_list[] array to condense it.

This requires the "forward_progress" check to be done slightly
differently, but this new scheme is less bug prone than what we were
doing before.

b830ab665a [SPARC64]: Fix bugs in SUN4V cpu mondo dispatch.
There were several bugs in the SUN4V cpu mondo dispatch code.

In fact, if we ever got a EWOULDBLOCK or other error from
the hypervisor call, we'd potentially send a cpu mondo multiple
times to the same cpu and even worse we could loop until the
timeout resending the same mondo over and over to such cpus.

So let's bulletproof this thing as follows:

1) Implement cpu_mondo_send() and cpu_state() hypervisor calls
   in arch/sparc64/kernel/entry.S, add prototypes to asm/hypervisor.h

2) Don't build and update the cpulist using inline functions, this
   was causing the cpu mask to not get updated in the caller.

3) Disable interrupts during the entire mondo send, otherwise our
   cpu list and/or mondo block could get overwritten if we take
   an interrupt and do a cpu mondo send on the current cpu.

4) Check for all possible error return types from the cpu_mondo_send()
   hypervisor call.  In particular:

   HV_EOK) Our work is done, all cpus have received the mondo.
   HV_CPUERROR) One or more of the cpus in the cpu list we passed
                to the hypervisor are in error state.  Use cpu_state()
                calls over the entries in the cpu list to see which
		ones.  Record them in "error_mask" and report this
		after we are done sending the mondo to cpus which are
		not in error state.
   HV_EWOULDBLOCK) We need to keep trying.

   Any other error we consider fatal, we report the event and exit
   immediately.

5) We only timeout if forward progress is not made.  Forward progress
   is defined as having at least one cpu get the mondo successfully
   in a given cpu_mondo_send() call.  Otherwise we bump a counter
   and delay a little.  If the counter hits a limit, we signal an
   error and report the event.

Also, smp_call_function_mask() error handling reports the number
of cpus incorrectly.

a0663a79ad [SPARC64]: Fix TLB context allocation with SMT style shared TLBs.
The context allocation scheme we use depends upon there being a 1<-->1
mapping from cpu to physical TLB for correctness.  Chips like Niagara
break this assumption.

So what we do is notify all cpus with a cross call when the context
version number changes, and if necessary this makes them allocate
a valid context for the address space they are running at the time.

Stress tested with make -j1024, make -j2048, and make -j4096 kernel
builds on a 32-strand, 8 core, T2000 with 16GB of ram.

074d82cf68 [SPARC64]: Put syscall tables after trap table.
Otherwise with too much stuff enabled in the kernel config
we can end up with an unaligned trap table.

fc50492867 [SPARC64]: Drop %gl to 0 before re-enabling PSTATE_IE in rtrap
If we take a window fault, on SUN4V set %gl to zero before we
turn PSTATE_IE back on in %pstate.  Otherwise if we take an
interrupt we'll end up with corrupt register state.

d7744a0950 [SPARC64]: Create a seperate kernel TSB for 4MB/256MB mappings.
It can map all of the linear kernel mappings with zero TSB hash
conflicts for systems with 16GB or less ram.  In such cases, on
SUN4V, once we load up this TSB the first time with all the
mappings, we never take a linear kernel mapping TLB miss ever
again, the hypervisor handles them all.

9cc3a1ac9a [SPARC64]: Make use of Niagara 256MB PTEs for kernel mappings.
We use a bitmap, one bit for every 256MB of memory.  If the
bit is set we can use a 256MB PTE for linear mappings, else
we have to use a 4MB PTE.

SUN4V support is there, and we can very easily add support
for Panther cpu 256MB PTEs in the future.
