arch, mm: make releasing of memory to page allocator more explicit

2025-03-18T05:06:53+00:00

The point where the memory is released from memblock to the buddy
allocator is hidden inside arch-specific mem_init()s and the call to
memblock_free_all() is needlessly duplicated in every artiste cure and
after introduction of arch_mm_preinit() hook, mem_init() implementation on
many architecture only contains the call to memblock_free_all().

Pull memblock_free_all() call into mm_core_init() and drop mem_init() on
relevant architectures to make it more explicit where the free memory is
released from memblock to the buddy allocator and to reduce code
duplication in architecture specific code.

arch, mm: set high_memory in free_area_init()

2025-03-18T05:06:52+00:00

high_memory defines upper bound on the directly mapped memory.  This bound
is defined by the beginning of ZONE_HIGHMEM when a system has high memory
and by the end of memory otherwise.

All this is known to generic memory management initialization code that
can set high_memory while initializing core mm structures.

Add a generic calculation of high_memory to free_area_init() and remove
per-architecture calculation except for the architectures that set and use
high_memory earlier than that.

arch, mm: set max_mapnr when allocating memory map for FLATMEM

2025-03-18T05:06:52+00:00

max_mapnr is essentially the size of the memory map for systems that use
FLATMEM. There is no reason to calculate it in each and every architecture
when it's anyway calculated in alloc_node_mem_map().

Drop setting of max_mapnr from architecture code and set it once in
alloc_node_mem_map().

While on it, move definition of mem_map and max_mapnr to mm/mm_init.c so
there won't be two copies for MMU and !MMU variants.

asm-generic: pgalloc: provide generic __pgd_{alloc,free}

2025-01-26T04:22:24+00:00

We already have a generic implementation of alloc/free up to P4D level, as
well as pgd_free().  Let's finish the work and add a generic PGD-level
alloc helper as well.

Unlike at lower levels, almost all architectures need some specific magic
at PGD level (typically initialising PGD entries), so introducing a
generic pgd_alloc() isn't worth it.  Instead we introduce two new helpers,
__pgd_alloc() and __pgd_free(), and make use of them in the arch-specific
pgd_alloc() and pgd_free() wherever possible.  To accommodate as many arch
as possible, __pgd_alloc() takes a page allocation order.

Because pagetable_alloc() allocates zeroed pages, explicit zeroing in
pgd_alloc() becomes redundant and we can get rid of it.  Some trivial
implementations of pgd_free() also become unnecessary once __pgd_alloc()
is used; remove them.

Another small improvement is consistent accounting of PGD pages by using
GFP_PGTABLE_{USER,KERNEL} as appropriate.

Not all PGD allocations can be handled by the generic helpers.  In
particular, multiple architectures allocate PGDs from a kmem_cache, and
those PGDs may not be page-sized.

This enables ARCH_HAS_VM_GET_PAGE_PROT on the platform and exports
standard vm_get_page_prot() implementation via DECLARE_VM_GET_PAGE_PROT,
which looks up a private and static protection_map[] array.  Subsequently
all __SXXX and __PXXX macros can be dropped which are no longer needed.

alpha: Silence -Warray-bounds warnings

2022-02-14T00:48:04+00:00

GCC 11 (incorrectly[1]) assumes that literal values cast to (void *)
should be treated like a NULL pointer with an offset, and raises
diagnostics when doing bounds checking:

This has been solved in other places[2] already by using the recently

alpha: remove DISCONTIGMEM and NUMA

2021-06-29T17:53:55+00:00

Patch series "Remove DISCONTIGMEM memory model", v3.

SPARSEMEM memory model was supposed to entirely replace DISCONTIGMEM a
(long) while ago.  The last architectures that used DISCONTIGMEM were
updated to use other memory models in v5.11 and it is about the time to
entirely remove DISCONTIGMEM from the kernel.

This set removes DISCONTIGMEM from alpha, arc and m68k, simplifies memory
model selection in mm/Kconfig and replaces usage of redundant
CONFIG_NEED_MULTIPLE_NODES and CONFIG_FLAT_NODE_MEM_MAP with CONFIG_NUMA
and CONFIG_FLATMEM respectively.

I've also removed NUMA support on alpha that was BROKEN for more than 15
years.

There were also minor updates all over arch/ to remove mentions of
DISCONTIGMEM in comments and #ifdefs.

This patch (of 9):

NUMA is marked broken on alpha for more than 15 years and DISCONTIGMEM was
replaced with SPARSEMEM in v5.11.

Remove both NUMA and DISCONTIGMEM support from alpha.

mm: don't include asm/pgtable.h if linux/mm.h is already included

2020-06-09T16:39:13+00:00

Patch series "mm: consolidate definitions of page table accessors", v2.

The low level page table accessors (pXY_index(), pXY_offset()) are
duplicated across all architectures and sometimes more than once.  For
instance, we have 31 definition of pgd_offset() for 25 supported
architectures.

Most of these definitions are actually identical and typically it boils
down to, e.g.

static inline unsigned long pmd_index(unsigned long address)
{
        return (address >> PMD_SHIFT) & (PTRS_PER_PMD - 1);
}

static inline pmd_t *pmd_offset(pud_t *pud, unsigned long address)
{
        return (pmd_t *)pud_page_vaddr(*pud) + pmd_index(address);
}

These definitions can be shared among 90% of the arches provided
XYZ_SHIFT, PTRS_PER_XYZ and xyz_page_vaddr() are defined.

For architectures that really need a custom version there is always
possibility to override the generic version with the usual ifdefs magic.

These patches introduce include/linux/pgtable.h that replaces
include/asm-generic/pgtable.h and add the definitions of the page table
accessors to the new header.

This patch (of 12):

The linux/mm.h header includes  to allow inlining of the
functions involving page table manipulations, e.g.  pte_alloc() and
pmd_alloc().  So, there is no point to explicitly include 
in the files that include .

The include statements in such cases are remove with a simple loop:

	for f in $(git grep -l "include ") ; do
		sed -i -e '/include / d' $f
	done
