sparc, sparc64: use arch/sparc/include

2008-07-27T21:00:59+00:00

The majority of this patch was created by the following script:

***
ASM=arch/sparc/include/asm
mkdir -p $ASM
git mv include/asm-sparc64/ftrace.h $ASM
git rm include/asm-sparc64/*
git mv include/asm-sparc/* $ASM
sed -ie 's/asm-sparc64/asm/g' $ASM/*
sed -ie 's/asm-sparc/asm/g' $ASM/*
***

The rest was an update of the top-level Makefile to use sparc
for header files when sparc64 is being build.
And a small fixlet to pick up the correct unistd.h from
sparc64 code.

sparc: join the remaining header files

2008-07-18T04:55:51+00:00

With this commit all sparc64 header files are moved to asm-sparc.
The remaining files (71 files) were too different to be trivially
merged so divide them up in a _32.h and a _64.h file which
are both included from the file with no bit size.

The following script were used:
cd include
FILES=`wc -l asm-sparc64/*h | grep -v '^     1' | cut -b 20-`

for FILE in ${FILES}; do
  echo $FILE:
  BASE=`echo $FILE | cut -d '.' -f 1`
  FN32=${BASE}_32.h
  FN64=${BASE}_64.h
  GUARD=___ASM_SPARC_`echo $BASE | tr '-' '_' | tr [:lower:] [:upper:]`_H
  git mv asm-sparc/$FILE asm-sparc/$FN32
  git mv asm-sparc64/$FILE asm-sparc/$FN64
  echo git mv done
  printf "#ifndef %s\n" $GUARD                             >   asm-sparc/$FILE
  printf "#define %s\n" $GUARD                             >>  asm-sparc/$FILE
  printf "#if defined(__sparc__) && defined(__arch64__)\n" >>  asm-sparc/$FILE
  printf "#include \n" $FN64                 >>  asm-sparc/$FILE
  printf "#else\n"                                         >>  asm-sparc/$FILE
  printf "#include \n" $FN32                 >>  asm-sparc/$FILE
  printf "#endif\n"                                        >>  asm-sparc/$FILE
  printf "#endif\n"                                        >>  asm-sparc/$FILE
  git add asm-sparc/$FILE
  echo new file done
  printf "#include \n" $FILE                 >  asm-sparc64/$FILE
  git add asm-sparc64/$FILE
  echo sparc64 file done
done

The guard contains three '_' to avoid conflict with existing guards.
In additing the two Kbuild files are emptied to avoid breaking
headers_* targets.
We will reintroduce the exported header files when the necessary
kbuild changes are merged.

mm: introduce pte_special pte bit

2008-04-28T15:58:23+00:00

s390 for one, cannot implement VM_MIXEDMAP with pfn_valid, due to their memory
model (which is more dynamic than most).  Instead, they had proposed to
implement it with an additional path through vm_normal_page(), using a bit in
the pte to determine whether or not the page should be refcounted:

vm_normal_page()
{
	...
        if (unlikely(vma->vm_flags & (VM_PFNMAP|VM_MIXEDMAP))) {
                if (vma->vm_flags & VM_MIXEDMAP) {
#ifdef s390
			if (!mixedmap_refcount_pte(pte))
				return NULL;
#else
                        if (!pfn_valid(pfn))
                                return NULL;
#endif
                        goto out;
                }
	...
}

This is fine, however if we are allowed to use a bit in the pte to determine
refcountedness, we can use that to _completely_ replace all the vma based
schemes.  So instead of adding more cases to the already complex vma-based
scheme, we can have a clearly seperate and simple pte-based scheme (and get
slightly better code generation in the process):

vm_normal_page()
{
#ifdef s390
	if (!mixedmap_refcount_pte(pte))
		return NULL;
	return pte_page(pte);
#else
	...
#endif
}

And finally, we may rather make this concept usable by any architecture rather
than making it s390 only, so implement a new type of pte state for this.
Unfortunately the old vma based code must stay, because some architectures may
not be able to spare pte bits.  This makes vm_normal_page a little bit more
ugly than we would like, but the 2 cases are clearly seperate.

So introduce a pte_special pte state, and use it in mm/memory.c.  It is
currently a noop for all architectures, so this doesn't actually result in any
compiled code changes to mm/memory.o.

BTW:
I haven't put vm_normal_page() into arch code as-per an earlier suggestion.
The reason is that, regardless of where vm_normal_page is actually
implemented, the *abstraction* is still exactly the same. Also, while it
depends on whether the architecture has pte_special or not, that is the
only two possible cases, and it really isn't an arch specific function --
the role of the arch code should be to provide primitive functions and
accessors with which to build the core code; pte_special does that. We do
not want architectures to know or care about vm_normal_page itself, and
we definitely don't want them being able to invent something new there
out of sight of mm/ code. If we made vm_normal_page an arch function, then
we have to make vm_insert_mixed (next patch) an arch function too. So I
don't think moving it to arch code fundamentally improves any abstractions,
while it does practically make the code more difficult to follow, for both
mm and arch developers, and easier to misuse.
