mm: pgtable: fix pte_swp_exclusive

2025-06-11T21:52:08+00:00

Make pte_swp_exclusive return bool instead of int.  This will better
reflect how pte_swp_exclusive is actually used in the code.

This fixes swap/swapoff problems on Alpha due pte_swp_exclusive not
returning correct values when _PAGE_SWP_EXCLUSIVE bit resides in upper
32-bits of PTE (like on alpha).

arch: use always-$(KBUILD_BUILTIN) for vmlinux.lds

The extra-y syntax is deprecated. Instead, use always-$(KBUILD_BUILTIN),
which behaves equivalently.

mm: call ctor/dtor for kernel PTEs

2025-05-12T00:48:21+00:00

Since [1], constructors/destructors are expected to be called for all page
table pages, at all levels and for both user and kernel pgtables.  There
is however one glaring exception: kernel PTEs are managed via separate
helpers (pte_alloc_kernel/pte_free_kernel), which do not call the [cd]tor,
at least not in the generic implementation.

The most obvious reason for this anomaly is that init_mm is special-cased
not to use split page table locks.  As a result calling ptlock_init() for
PTEs associated with init_mm would be wasteful, potentially resulting in
dynamic memory allocation.  However, pgtable [cd]tors perform other
actions - currently related to accounting/statistics, and potentially more
functionally significant in the future.

Now that pagetable_pte_ctor() is passed the associated mm, we can make it
skip the call to ptlock_init() for init_mm; this allows us to call the
ctor from pte_alloc_one_kernel() too.  This is matched by a call to the
pgtable destructor in pte_free_kernel(); no special-casing is needed on
that path, as ptlock_free() is already called unconditionally. 
(ptlock_free() is a no-op unless a ptlock was allocated for the given
PTP.)

This patch ensures that all architectures that rely on
 call the [cd]tor for kernel PTEs. 
pte_free_kernel() cannot be overridden so changing the generic
implementation is sufficient.  pte_alloc_one_kernel() can be overridden
using __HAVE_ARCH_PTE_ALLOC_ONE_KERNEL, and a few architectures implement
it by calling the page allocator directly.  We amend those so that they
call the generic __pte_alloc_one_kernel() instead, if possible, ensuring
that the ctor is called.

A few architectures do not use ; those will be
taken care of separately.

syscall.h: introduce syscall_set_nr()

2025-05-12T00:48:15+00:00

Similar to syscall_set_arguments() that complements
syscall_get_arguments(), introduce syscall_set_nr() that complements
syscall_get_nr().

syscall_set_nr() is going to be needed along with syscall_set_arguments()
on all HAVE_ARCH_TRACEHOOK architectures to implement
PTRACE_SET_SYSCALL_INFO API.

This function is going to be needed on all HAVE_ARCH_TRACEHOOK
architectures to implement PTRACE_SET_SYSCALL_INFO API.

This partially reverts commit 7962c2eddbfe ("arch: remove unused function

Most architectures simply call pfn_pte().  Centralise that as the normal
definition and remove the definition of mk_pte() from the architectures
which have either that exact definition or something similar.

openrisc: Add cacheinfo support

2025-04-20T06:06:54+00:00

Add cacheinfo support for OpenRISC.

Currently, a few CPU cache attributes pertaining to OpenRISC processors
are exposed along with other unrelated CPU attributes in the procfs file
system (/proc/cpuinfo). However, a few cache attributes remain unexposed.

Provide a mechanism that the generic cacheinfo infrastructure can employ
to expose these attributes via the sysfs file system. These attributes
can then be exposed in /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/cache/indexN. Move
the implementation to pull cache attributes from the processor's
registers from arch/openrisc/kernel/setup.c with a few modifications.

This implementation is based on similar work done for MIPS and LoongArch.

openrisc: Introduce new utility functions to flush and invalidate caches

2025-04-20T06:06:54+00:00

According to the OpenRISC architecture manual, the dcache and icache may
not be present. When these caches are present, the invalidate and flush
registers may be absent. The current implementation does not perform
checks to verify their presence before utilizing cache registers, or
invalidating and flushing cache blocks.

Introduce new functions to detect the presence of cache components and
related special-purpose registers.

There are a few places where a range of addresses have to be flushed or
invalidated and the implementation is duplicated. Introduce new utility
functions and macros that generalize this implementation and reduce
duplication.
