<title>x86: fix virt_addr_valid() with CONFIG_DEBUG_VIRTUAL=y, v2</title>

virt_addr_valid() calls __pa(), which calls __phys_addr(). With
CONFIG_DEBUG_VIRTUAL=y, __phys_addr() will kill the kernel if the
address *isn't* valid. That's clearly wrong for virt_addr_valid().

We also incorporate the debugging checks into virt_addr_valid().

<title>x86: track memtype for RAM in page struct</title>

Track the memtype for RAM pages in page struct instead of using the
memtype list. This avoids the explosion in the number of entries in
memtype list (of the order of 20,000 with AGP) and makes the PAT
tracking simpler.

We are using PG_arch_1 bit in page-&gt;flags.

We still use the memtype list for non RAM pages.

<title>PAGE_ALIGN(): correctly handle 64-bit values on 32-bit architectures</title>
<updated>2008-07-24T17:47:21+00:00</updated>
<author>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.tavy.me/linux.git/commit/?id=27ac792ca0b0a1e7e65f20342260650516c95864'/>
<id>27ac792ca0b0a1e7e65f20342260650516c95864</id>
<content type='text'>
On 32-bit architectures PAGE_ALIGN() truncates 64-bit values to the 32-bit
boundary. For example:

	u64 val = PAGE_ALIGN(size);

always returns a value &lt; 4GB even if size is greater than 4GB.

The problem resides in PAGE_MASK definition (from include/asm-x86/page.h for
example):

#define PAGE_SHIFT      12
#define PAGE_SIZE       (_AC(1,UL) &lt;&lt; PAGE_SHIFT)
#define PAGE_MASK       (~(PAGE_SIZE-1))
...
#define PAGE_ALIGN(addr)       (((addr)+PAGE_SIZE-1)&amp;PAGE_MASK)

The "~" is performed on a 32-bit value, so everything in "and" with
PAGE_MASK greater than 4GB will be truncated to the 32-bit boundary.
Using the ALIGN() macro seems to be the right way, because it uses
typeof(addr) for the mask.

Also move the PAGE_ALIGN() definitions out of include/asm-*/page.h in
include/linux/mm.h.

Add an hugepagesz=...  option similar to IA64, PPC etc.  to x86-64.

This finally allows to select GB pages for hugetlbfs in x86 now that all
the infrastructure is in place.

This patch is the result of an automatic script that consolidates the
format of all the headers in include/asm-x86/.

The format:

1. No leading underscore. Names with leading underscores are reserved.
2. Pathname components are separated by two underscores. So we can
   distinguish between mm_types.h and mm/types.h.
3. Everything except letters and numbers are turned into single
   underscores.

Rusty, in his peevish way, complained that macros defining constants
should have a name which somewhat accurately reflects the actual
purpose of the constant.

Aside from the fact that PTE_MASK gives no clue as to what's actually
being masked, and is misleadingly similar to the functionally entirely
different PMD_MASK, PUD_MASK and PGD_MASK, I don't really see what the
problem is.

But if this patch silences the incessent noise, then it will have
achieved its goal (TODO: write test-case).
