For most architectures that support >2 levels of page tables,
pmd_alloc_one() is a wrapper for __get_free_pages(), sometimes with
__GFP_ZERO and sometimes followed by memset(0) instead.
More elaborate versions on arm64 and x86 account memory for the user page
tables and call to pgtable_pmd_page_ctor() as the part of PMD page
initialization.
Move the arm64 version to include/asm-generic/pgalloc.h and use the
generic version on several architectures.
The pgtable_pmd_page_ctor() is a NOP when ARCH_ENABLE_SPLIT_PMD_PTLOCK is
not enabled, so there is no functional change for most architectures
except of the addition of __GFP_ACCOUNT for allocation of user page
tables.
The pmd_free() is a wrapper for free_page() in all the cases, so no
functional change here.

Patch series "mm: cleanup usage of <asm/pgalloc.h>"
Most architectures have very similar versions of pXd_alloc_one() and
pXd_free_one() for intermediate levels of page table. These patches add
generic versions of these functions in <asm-generic/pgalloc.h> and enable
use of the generic functions where appropriate.
In addition, functions declared and defined in <asm/pgalloc.h> headers are
used mostly by core mm and early mm initialization in arch and there is no
actual reason to have the <asm/pgalloc.h> included all over the place.
The first patch in this series removes unneeded includes of
<asm/pgalloc.h>
In the end it didn't work out as neatly as I hoped and moving
pXd_alloc_track() definitions to <asm-generic/pgalloc.h> would require
unnecessary changes to arches that have custom page table allocations, so
I've decided to move lib/ioremap.c to mm/ and make pgalloc-track.h local
to mm/.
This patch (of 8):
In most cases <asm/pgalloc.h> header is required only for allocations of
page table memory. Most of the .c files that include that header do not
use symbols declared in <asm/pgalloc.h> and do not require that header.
As for the other header files that used to include <asm/pgalloc.h>, it is
possible to move that include into the .c file that actually uses symbols
from <asm/pgalloc.h> and drop the include from the header file.
The process was somewhat automated using
sed -i -E '/[<"]asm\/pgalloc\.h/d' \
$(grep -L -w -f /tmp/xx \
$(git grep -E -l '[<"]asm/pgalloc\.h'))
where /tmp/xx contains all the symbols defined in
arch/*/include/asm/pgalloc.h.

Rather then relying on the core code to use smp_read_barrier_depends()
as part of the READ_ONCE() definition, instead override __READ_ONCE()
in the Alpha code so that it generates the required mb() and then
implement smp_load_acquire() using the new macro to avoid redundant
back-to-back barriers from the generic implementation.

The commits cd0e00c10672 and 92d7223a7423 broke boot on the Alpha Avanti
platform. The patches move memory barriers after a write before the write.
The result is that if there's iowrite followed by ioread, there is no
barrier between them.
The Alpha architecture allows reordering of the accesses to the I/O space,
and the missing barrier between write and read causes hang with serial
port and real time clock.
This patch makes barriers confiorm to the specification.
1. We add mb() before readX_relaxed and writeX_relaxed -
memory-barriers.txt claims that these functions must be ordered w.r.t.
each other. Alpha doesn't order them, so we need an explicit barrier.
2. We add mb() before reads from the I/O space - so that if there's a
write followed by a read, there should be a barrier between them.

All architectures define pte_index() as
(address >> PAGE_SHIFT) & (PTRS_PER_PTE - 1)
and all architectures define pte_offset_kernel() as an entry in the array
of PTEs indexed by the pte_index().
For the most architectures the pte_offset_kernel() implementation relies
on the availability of pmd_page_vaddr() that converts a PMD entry value to
the virtual address of the page containing PTEs array.
Let's move x86 definitions of the PTE accessors to the generic place in
<linux/pgtable.h> and then simply drop the respective definitions from the
other architectures.
The architectures that didn't provide pmd_page_vaddr() are updated to have
that defined.
The generic implementation of pte_offset_kernel() can be overridden by an
architecture and alpha makes use of this because it has special ordering
requirements for its version of pte_offset_kernel().

Patch series "mm: consolidate definitions of page table accessors", v2.
The low level page table accessors (pXY_index(), pXY_offset()) are
duplicated across all architectures and sometimes more than once. For
instance, we have 31 definition of pgd_offset() for 25 supported
architectures.
Most of these definitions are actually identical and typically it boils
down to, e.g.
static inline unsigned long pmd_index(unsigned long address)
{
return (address >> PMD_SHIFT) & (PTRS_PER_PMD - 1);
}
static inline pmd_t *pmd_offset(pud_t *pud, unsigned long address)
{
return (pmd_t *)pud_page_vaddr(*pud) + pmd_index(address);
}
These definitions can be shared among 90% of the arches provided
XYZ_SHIFT, PTRS_PER_XYZ and xyz_page_vaddr() are defined.
For architectures that really need a custom version there is always
possibility to override the generic version with the usual ifdefs magic.
These patches introduce include/linux/pgtable.h that replaces
include/asm-generic/pgtable.h and add the definitions of the page table
accessors to the new header.
This patch (of 12):
The linux/mm.h header includes <asm/pgtable.h> to allow inlining of the
functions involving page table manipulations, e.g. pte_alloc() and
pmd_alloc(). So, there is no point to explicitly include <asm/pgtable.h>
in the files that include <linux/mm.h>.
The include statements in such cases are remove with a simple loop:
for f in $(git grep -l "include <linux/mm.h>") ; do
sed -i -e '/include <asm\/pgtable.h>/ d' $f
done

Currently we have architecture-specific fd_inb() and fd_outb() functions
or macros, taking just a port which is in fact made of a base address and
a register. The base address is FDC-specific and derived from the local or
global "fdc" variable through the FD_IOPORT macro used in the base address
calculation.
This change splits this by explicitly passing the FDC's base address and
the register separately to fd_outb() and fd_inb(). It affects the
following archs:
- x86, alpha, mips, powerpc, parisc, arm, m68k:
simple remap of port -> base+reg
- sparc32: use of reg only, since the base address was already masked
out and the FDC controller is known from a static struct.
- sparc64: like x86 for PCI, like sparc32 for 82077
Some archs use inline functions and others macros. This was not
unified in order to minimize the number of changes to review. For the
same reason checkpatch still spews a few warnings about things that
were already there before.
The parisc still uses hard-coded register values and could be cleaned up
by taking the register definitions.
The sparc per-controller inb/outb functions could further be refined
to explicitly take an FDC register instead of a port in argument but it
was not needed yet and may be cleaned later.

Currently there are many platforms that dont enable ARCH_HAS_PTE_SPECIAL
but required to define quite similar fallback stubs for special page
table entry helpers such as pte_special() and pte_mkspecial(), as they
get build in generic MM without a config check. This creates two
generic fallback stub definitions for these helpers, eliminating much
code duplication.
mips platform has a special case where pte_special() and pte_mkspecial()
visibility is wider than what ARCH_HAS_PTE_SPECIAL enablement requires.
This restricts those symbol visibility in order to avoid redefinitions
which is now exposed through this new generic stubs and subsequent build
failure. arm platform set_pte_at() definition needs to be moved into a
C file just to prevent a build failure.

There are many platforms with exact same value for VM_DATA_DEFAULT_FLAGS
This creates a default value for VM_DATA_DEFAULT_FLAGS in line with the
existing VM_STACK_DEFAULT_FLAGS. While here, also define some more
macros with standard VMA access flag combinations that are used
frequently across many platforms. Apart from simplification, this
reduces code duplication as well.

Change a header to mandatory-y if both of the following are met:
[1] At least one architecture (except um) specifies it as generic-y in
arch/*/include/asm/Kbuild
[2] Every architecture (except um) either has its own implementation
(arch/*/include/asm/*.h) or specifies it as generic-y in
arch/*/include/asm/Kbuild
This commit was generated by the following shell script.
----------------------------------->8-----------------------------------
arches=$(cd arch; ls -1 | sed -e '/Kconfig/d' -e '/um/d')
tmpfile=$(mktemp)
grep "^mandatory-y +=" include/asm-generic/Kbuild > $tmpfile
find arch -path 'arch/*/include/asm/Kbuild' |
xargs sed -n 's/^generic-y += \(.*\)/\1/p' | sort -u |
while read header
do
mandatory=yes
for arch in $arches
do
if ! grep -q "generic-y += $header" arch/$arch/include/asm/Kbuild &&
! [ -f arch/$arch/include/asm/$header ]; then
mandatory=no
break
fi
done
if [ "$mandatory" = yes ]; then
echo "mandatory-y += $header" >> $tmpfile
for arch in $arches
do
sed -i "/generic-y += $header/d" arch/$arch/include/asm/Kbuild
done
fi
done
sed -i '/^mandatory-y +=/d' include/asm-generic/Kbuild
LANG=C sort $tmpfile >> include/asm-generic/Kbuild
----------------------------------->8-----------------------------------
One obvious benefit is the diff stat:
25 files changed, 52 insertions(+), 557 deletions(-)
It is tedious to list generic-y for each arch that needs it.
So, mandatory-y works like a fallback default (by just wrapping
asm-generic one) when arch does not have a specific header
implementation.
See the following commits:
def3f7cefe4e81c296090e1722a76551142c227c
a1b39bae16a62ce4aae02d958224f19316d98b24
It is tedious to convert headers one by one, so I processed by a shell
script.

Move access_ok() in and pagefault_enable()/pagefault_disable() out.
Mechanical conversion only - some instances don't really need
a separate access_ok() at all (e.g. the ones only using
get_user()/put_user(), or architectures where access_ok()
is always true); we'll deal with that in followups.

Patch series "mm: remove __ARCH_HAS_4LEVEL_HACK", v13.
These patches convert several architectures to use page table folding
and remove __ARCH_HAS_4LEVEL_HACK along with
include/asm-generic/4level-fixup.h.
For the nommu configurations the folding is already implemented by the
generic code so the only change was to use the appropriate header file.
As for the rest, the changes are mostly about mechanical replacement of
pgd accessors with pud/pmd ones and the addition of higher levels to
page table traversals.
With Vineet's patches from "elide extraneous generated code for folded
p4d/pud/pmd" series [1] there is a small shrink of the kernel size of
about -0.01% for the defconfig builds.
This patch (of 13):
It is not likely alpha will have 5-level page tables.
Replace usage of include/asm-generic/4level-fixup.h and implied
__ARCH_HAS_4LEVEL_HACK with include/asm-generic/pgtable-nopud.h and
adjust page table manipulation macros and functions accordingly.

Both pgtable_cache_init() and pgd_cache_init() are used to initialize kmem
cache for page table allocations on several architectures that do not use
PAGE_SIZE tables for one or more levels of the page table hierarchy.
Most architectures do not implement these functions and use __weak default
NOP implementation of pgd_cache_init(). Since there is no such default
for pgtable_cache_init(), its empty stub is duplicated among most
architectures.
Rename the definitions of pgd_cache_init() to pgtable_cache_init() and
drop empty stubs of pgtable_cache_init().

Patch series "mm: remove quicklist page table caches".
A while ago Nicholas proposed to remove quicklist page table caches [1].
I've rebased his patch on the curren upstream and switched ia64 and sh to
use generic versions of PTE allocation.
[1] https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20190711030339.20892-1-npiggin@gmail.com
This patch (of 3):
Remove page table allocator "quicklists". These have been around for a
long time, but have not got much traction in the last decade and are only
used on ia64 and sh architectures.
The numbers in the initial commit look interesting but probably don't
apply anymore. If anybody wants to resurrect this it's in the git
history, but it's unhelpful to have this code and divergent allocator
behaviour for minor archs.
Also it might be better to instead make more general improvements to page
allocator if this is still so slow.

alpha allocates PTE pages with __get_free_page() and uses
GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_ZERO for the allocations.
Switch it to the generic version that does exactly the same thing for the
kernel page tables and adds __GFP_ACCOUNT for the user PTEs.
The alpha pte_free() and pte_free_kernel() versions are identical to the
generic ones and can be simply dropped.

As a step towards making the atomic64 API use consistent types treewide,
let's have the alpha atomic64 implementation use s64 as the underlying
type for atomic64_t, rather than long, matching the generated headers.
As atomic64_read() depends on the generic defintion of atomic64_t, this
still returns long. This will be converted in a subsequent patch.
Otherwise, there should be no functional change as a result of this
patch.

MMIO has been performed inside the critical section.
The only relatively recent changes have been addressing review
comments on the documentation, which is in a much better shape thanks
to the efforts of Ben and Ingo.
I was initially planning to split this into two pull requests so that
you could run the coccinelle script yourself, however it's been plain
sailing in linux-next so I've just included the whole lot here to keep
things simple"

As the generic rwsem-xadd code is using the appropriate acquire and
release versions of the atomic operations, the arch specific rwsem.h
files will not be that much faster than the generic code as long as the
atomic functions are properly implemented. So we can remove those arch
specific rwsem.h and stop building asm/rwsem.h to reduce maintenance
effort.
Currently, only x86, alpha and ia64 have implemented architecture
specific fast paths. I don't have access to alpha and ia64 systems for
testing, but they are legacy systems that are not likely to be updated
to the latest kernel anyway.
By using a rwsem microbenchmark, the total locking rates on a 4-socket
56-core 112-thread x86-64 system before and after the patch were as
follows (mixed means equal # of read and write locks):
Before Patch After Patch
# of Threads wlock rlock mixed wlock rlock mixed
------------ ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- -----
1 29,201 30,143 29,458 28,615 30,172 29,201
2 6,807 13,299 1,171 7,725 15,025 1,804
4 6,504 12,755 1,520 7,127 14,286 1,345
8 6,762 13,412 764 6,826 13,652 726
16 6,693 15,408 662 6,599 15,938 626
32 6,145 15,286 496 5,549 15,487 511
64 5,812 15,495 60 5,858 15,572 60
There were some run-to-run variations for the multi-thread tests. For
x86-64, using the generic C code fast path seems to be a little bit
faster than the assembly version with low lock contention. Looking at
the assembly version of the fast paths, there are assembly to/from C
code wrappers that save and restore all the callee-clobbered registers
(7 registers on x86-64). The assembly generated from the generic C
code doesn't need to do that. That may explain the slight performance
gain here.
The generic asm rwsem.h can also be merged into kernel/locking/rwsem.h
with no code change as no other code other than those under
kernel/locking needs to access the internal rwsem macros and functions.

For the architectures that do not implement their own tlb_flush() but
do already use the generic mmu_gather, there are two options:
1) the platform has an efficient flush_tlb_range() and
asm-generic/tlb.h doesn't need any overrides at all.
2) the platform lacks an efficient flush_tlb_range() and
we select MMU_GATHER_NO_RANGE to minimize full invalidates.
Convert all 'simple' architectures to one of these two forms.
alpha: has no range invalidate -> 2
arc: already used flush_tlb_range() -> 1
c6x: has no range invalidate -> 2
hexagon: has an efficient flush_tlb_range() -> 1
(flush_tlb_mm() is in fact a full range invalidate,
so no need to shoot down everything)
m68k: has inefficient flush_tlb_range() -> 2
microblaze: has no flush_tlb_range() -> 2
mips: has efficient flush_tlb_range() -> 1
(even though it currently seems to use flush_tlb_mm())
nds32: already uses flush_tlb_range() -> 1
nios2: has inefficient flush_tlb_range() -> 2
(no limit on range iteration)
openrisc: has inefficient flush_tlb_range() -> 2
(no limit on range iteration)
parisc: already uses flush_tlb_range() -> 1
sparc32: already uses flush_tlb_range() -> 1
unicore32: has inefficient flush_tlb_range() -> 2
(no limit on range iteration)
xtensa: has efficient flush_tlb_range() -> 1
Note this also fixes a bug in the existing code for a number
platforms. Those platforms that did:
tlb_end_vma() -> if (!full_mm) flush_tlb_*()
tlb_flush -> if (full_mm) flush_tlb_mm()
missed the case of shift_arg_pages(), which doesn't have @fullmm set,
nor calls into tlb_*vma(), but still frees page-tables and thus needs
an invalidate. The new code handles this by detecting a non-empty
range, and either issuing the matching range invalidate or a full
invalidate, depending on the capabilities.
No change in behavior intended.

I do not see any consistency about headers_install of <linux/kvm_para.h>
and <asm/kvm_para.h>.
According to my analysis of Linux 5.1-rc1, there are 3 groups:
[1] Both <linux/kvm_para.h> and <asm/kvm_para.h> are exported
alpha, arm, hexagon, mips, powerpc, s390, sparc, x86
[2] <asm/kvm_para.h> is exported, but <linux/kvm_para.h> is not
arc, arm64, c6x, h8300, ia64, m68k, microblaze, nios2, openrisc,
parisc, sh, unicore32, xtensa
[3] Neither <linux/kvm_para.h> nor <asm/kvm_para.h> is exported
csky, nds32, riscv
This does not match to the actual KVM support. At least, [2] is
half-baked.
Nor do arch maintainers look like they care about this. For example,
commit 0add53713b1c ("microblaze: Add missing kvm_para.h to Kbuild")
exported <asm/kvm_para.h> to user-space in order to fix an in-kernel
build error.
We have two ways to make this consistent:
[A] export both <linux/kvm_para.h> and <asm/kvm_para.h> for all
architectures, irrespective of the KVM support
[B] Match the header export of <linux/kvm_para.h> and <asm/kvm_para.h>
to the KVM support
My first attempt was [A] because the code looks cleaner, but Paolo
suggested [B].
So, this commit goes with [B].
For most architectures, <asm/kvm_para.h> was moved to the kernel-space.
I changed include/uapi/linux/Kbuild so that it checks generated
asm/kvm_para.h as well as check-in ones.
After this commit, there will be two groups:
[1] Both <linux/kvm_para.h> and <asm/kvm_para.h> are exported
arm, arm64, mips, powerpc, s390, x86
[2] Neither <linux/kvm_para.h> nor <asm/kvm_para.h> is exported
alpha, arc, c6x, csky, h8300, hexagon, ia64, m68k, microblaze,

This argument is required to extend the generic ptrace API with
PTRACE_GET_SYSCALL_INFO request: syscall_get_arch() is going
to be called from ptrace_request() along with syscall_get_nr(),
syscall_get_arguments(), syscall_get_error(), and
syscall_get_return_value() functions with a tracee as their argument.
The primary intent is that the triple (audit_arch, syscall_nr, arg1..arg6)
should describe what system call is being called and what its arguments
are.

Patch series "Replace all open encodings for NUMA_NO_NODE", v3.
All these places for replacement were found by running the following
grep patterns on the entire kernel code. Please let me know if this
might have missed some instances. This might also have replaced some
false positives. I will appreciate suggestions, inputs and review.
1. git grep "nid == -1"
2. git grep "node == -1"
3. git grep "nid = -1"
4. git grep "node = -1"
This patch (of 2):
At present there are multiple places where invalid node number is
encoded as -1. Even though implicitly understood it is always better to
have macros in there. Replace these open encodings for an invalid node
number with the global macro NUMA_NO_NODE. This helps remove NUMA
related assumptions like 'invalid node' from various places redirecting
them to a common definition.

We're (finally) phasing out a.out support for good. As Borislav Petkov
points out, we've supported ELF binaries for about 25 years by now, and
coredumping in particular has bitrotted over the years.
None of the tool chains even support generating a.out binaries any more,
and the plan is to deprecate a.out support entirely for the kernel. But
I want to start with just removing the core dumping code, because I can
still imagine that somebody actually might want to support a.out as a
simpler biinary format.
Particularly if you generate some random binaries on the fly, ELF is a
much more complicated format (admittedly ELF also does have a lot of
toolchain support, mitigating that complexity a lot and you really
should have moved over in the last 25 years).
So it's at least somewhat possible that somebody out there has some
workflow that still involves generating and running a.out executables.
In contrast, it's very unlikely that anybody depends on debugging any
legacy a.out core files. But regardless, I want this phase-out to be
done in two steps, so that we can resurrect a.out support (if needed)
without having to resurrect the core file dumping that is almost
certainly not needed.
Jann Horn pointed to the <asm/a.out-core.h> file that my first trivial
cut at this had missed.
And Alan Cox points out that the a.out binary loader _could_ be done in
user space if somebody wants to, but we might keep just the loader in
the kernel if somebody really wants it, since the loader isn't that big
and has no really odd special cases like the core dumping does.

Every in-kernel use of this function defined it to KERNEL_DS (either as
an actual define, or as an inline function). It's an entirely
historical artifact, and long long long ago used to actually read the
segment selector valueof '%ds' on x86.
Which in the kernel is always KERNEL_DS.
Inspired by a patch from Jann Horn that just did this for a very small
subset of users (the ones in fs/), along with Al who suggested a script.
I then just took it to the logical extreme and removed all the remaining
gunk.
Roughly scripted with
git grep -l '(get_ds())' -- :^tools/ | xargs sed -i 's/(get_ds())/(KERNEL_DS)/'
git grep -lw 'get_ds' -- :^tools/ | xargs sed -i '/^#define get_ds()/d'
plus manual fixups to remove a few unusual usage patterns, the couple of
inline function cases and to fix up a comment that had become stale.
The 'get_ds()' function remains in an x86 kvm selftest, since in user
space it actually does something relevant.

Eiger machine vector definition has nr_irqs 128, and working 2.6.26
boot shows SCSI getting IRQ-s 64 and 65. Current kernel boot fails
because Symbios SCSI fails to request IRQ-s and does not find the disks.
It has been broken at least since 3.18 - the earliest I could test with
my gcc-5.
The headers have moved around and possibly another order of defines has
worked in the past - but since 128 seems to be correct and used, fix
arch/alpha/include/asm/irq.h to have NR_IRQS=128 for Eiger.
This fixes 4.19-rc7 boot on my Force Flexor A264 (Eiger subarch).
