2008-07-24x86: add hugepagesz option on 64-bitAndi Kleen1-0/+17
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.

2008-07-24hugetlb: modular state for hugetlb page sizeAndi Kleen1-2/+3
The goal of this patchset is to support multiple hugetlb page sizes. This is achieved by introducing a new struct hstate structure, which encapsulates the important hugetlb state and constants (eg. huge page size, number of huge pages currently allocated, etc). The hstate structure is then passed around the code which requires these fields, they will do the right thing regardless of the exact hstate they are operating on. This patch adds the hstate structure, with a single global instance of it (default_hstate), and does the basic work of converting hugetlb to use the hstate. Future patches will add more hstate structures to allow for different hugetlbfs mounts to have different page sizes.

2008-07-22x86: rename PTE_MASK to PTE_PFN_MASKJeremy Fitzhardinge1-5/+5
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).

From: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@infradead.org> Date: Sat, 19 Jul 2008 15:47:17 -0700 CONFIG_NONPROMISC_DEVMEM was a rather confusing name - but renaming it to CONFIG_PROMISC_DEVMEM causes problems on architectures that do not support this feature; this patch renames it to CONFIG_STRICT_DEVMEM, so that architectures can opt-in into it.

From: Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy.fitzhardinge@citrix.com> Older x86-32 processors do not support global mappings (PGD), so must only use it if the processor supports it. The _PAGE_KERNEL* flags always have _PAGE_KERNEL set, since logically we always want it set. This is OK even on processors which do not support PGD, since all _PAGE flags are masked with __supported_pte_mask before being turned into a real in-pagetable pte. On 32-bit systems, __supported_pte_mask is initialized to not contain _PAGE_GLOBAL, and it is then added if the CPU is found to support it. The x86-32 code used to use __PAGE_KERNEL/__PAGE_KERNEL_EXEC for this purpose, but they're now redundant and can be removed.

2008-07-08x86, 64-bit: adjust mapping of physical pagetables to work with XenJeremy Fitzhardinge2-13/+83
This makes a few of changes to the construction of the initial pagetables to work better with paravirt_ops/Xen. The main areas are: 1. Support non-PSE mapping of memory, since Xen doesn't currently allow 2M pages to be mapped in guests. 2. Make sure that the ioremap alias of all pages are dropped before attaching the new page to the pagetable. This avoids having writable aliases of pagetable pages. 3. Preserve existing pagetable entries, rather than overwriting. Its possible that a fair amount of pagetable has already been constructed, so reuse what's already in place rather than ignoring and overwriting it. The algorithm relies on the invariant that any page which is part of the kernel pagetable is itself mapped in the linear memory area. This way, it can avoid using ioremap on a pagetable page. The invariant holds because it maps memory from low to high addresses, and also allocates memory from low to high. Each allocated page can map at least 2M of address space, so the mapped area will always progress much faster than the allocated area. It relies on the early boot code mapping enough pages to get started.
