powerpc/64s: Relax PACA address limitations

2018-01-18T04:42:48+00:00

Book3S PACA memory allocation is restricted by the RMA limit and also
must not take SLB faults when accessed in virtual mode. Currently a
fixed 256MB limit is used for this, which is imprecise and sub-optimal.

Update the paca allocation limits to use use the ppc64_rma_size for RMA
limit, and share the safe_stack_limit() that is currently used for stack
allocations that must not take virtual mode faults.

The safe_stack_limit() name is changed to ppc64_bolted_size() to match
ppc64_rma_size and some comments are updated. We also need to use
early_mmu_has_feature() because we are now calling this function prior
to the jump label patching that enables mmu_has_feature().

powerpc/64s: mm_context.addr_limit is only used on hash

2017-11-13T12:35:43+00:00

Radix keeps no meaningful state in addr_limit, so remove it from radix
code and rename to slb_addr_limit to make it clear it applies to hash
only.

powerpc/64s: Replace CONFIG_PPC_STD_MMU_64 with CONFIG_PPC_BOOK3S_64

2017-11-06T05:48:14+00:00

CONFIG_PPC_STD_MMU_64 indicates support for the "standard" powerpc MMU
on 64-bit CPUs. The "standard" MMU refers to the hash page table MMU
found in "server" processors, from IBM mainly.

Currently CONFIG_PPC_STD_MMU_64 is == CONFIG_PPC_BOOK3S_64. While it's
annoying to have two symbols that always have the same value, it's not
quite annoying enough to bother removing one.

However with the arrival of Power9, we now have the situation where
CONFIG_PPC_STD_MMU_64 is enabled, but the kernel is running using the
Radix MMU - *not* the "standard" MMU. So it is now actively confusing
to use it, because it implies that code is disabled or inactive when
the Radix MMU is in use, however that is not necessarily true.

So s/CONFIG_PPC_STD_MMU_64/CONFIG_PPC_BOOK3S_64/, and do some minor
formatting updates of some of the affected lines.

This will be a pain for backports, but c'est la vie.

treewide: make "nr_cpu_ids" unsigned

2017-09-09T01:26:48+00:00

First, number of CPUs can't be negative number.

Second, different signnnedness leads to suboptimal code in the following
cases:

1)
	kmalloc(nr_cpu_ids * sizeof(X));

"int" has to be sign extended to size_t.

2)
	while (loff_t *pos < nr_cpu_ids)

MOVSXD is 1 byte longed than the same MOV.

Other cases exist as well. Basically compiler is told that nr_cpu_ids
can't be negative which can't be deduced if it is "int".

powerpc/mm/hash: Store addr_limit in PACA

2017-04-01T10:12:27+00:00

We optmize the slice page size array copy to paca by copying only the
range based on addr_limit. This will require us to not look at page size
array beyond addr_limit in PACA on slb fault. To enable that copy task
size to paca which will be used during slb fault.

powerpc/mm: Add addr_limit to mm_context and use it to derive max slice index

2017-04-01T10:12:20+00:00

In the followup patch, we will increase the slice array size to handle
512TB range, but will limit the max addr to 128TB. Avoid doing
unnecessary computation and avoid doing slice mask related operation
above address limit.

powerpc/mm: Convert early cpu/mmu feature check to use the new helpers

2016-08-01T01:15:01+00:00

This switches early feature checks to use the non static key variant of
the function. In later patches we will be switching cpu_has_feature()
and mmu_has_feature() to use static keys and we can use them only after
static key/jump label is initialized. Any check for feature before jump
label init should be done using this new helper.
