      mm: migrate: check movability of hugepage in unmap_and_move_huge_page() · 83467efb
      Naoya Horiguchi authored
      
      Currently hugepage migration works well only for pmd-based hugepages
      (mainly due to lack of testing,) so we had better not enable migration of
      other levels of hugepages until we are ready for it.
      
      Some users of hugepage migration (mbind, move_pages, and migrate_pages) do
      page table walk and check pud/pmd_huge() there, so they are safe.  But the
      other users (softoffline and memory hotremove) don't do this, so without
      this patch they can try to migrate unexpected types of hugepages.
      
      To prevent this, we introduce hugepage_migration_support() as an
      architecture dependent check of whether hugepage are implemented on a pmd
      basis or not.  And on some architecture multiple sizes of hugepages are
      available, so hugepage_migration_support() also checks hugepage size.

      s390/mm: implement software referenced bits · 0944fe3f
      Martin Schwidefsky authored
      
      The last remaining use for the storage key of the s390 architecture
      is reference counting. The alternative is to make page table entries
      invalid while they are old. On access the fault handler marks the
      pte/pmd as young which makes the pte/pmd valid if the access rights
      allow read access. The pte/pmd invalidations required for software
      managed reference bits cost a bit of performance, on the other hand
      the RRBE/RRBM instructions to read and reset the referenced bits are
      quite expensive as well.

      s390: delete __cpuinit usage from all s390 files · e2741f17
      Paul Gortmaker authored
      The __cpuinit type of throwaway sections might have made sense
      some time ago when RAM was more constrained, but now the savings
      do not offset the cost and complications.  For example, the fix in
      commit 5e427ec2 ("x86: Fix bit corruption at CPU resume time")
      is a good example of the nasty type of bugs that can be created
      with improper use of the various __init prefixes.
      
      After a discussion on LKML[1] it was decided that cpuinit should go
      the way of devinit and be phased out.  Once all the users are gone,
      we can then finally remove the macros themselves from linux/init.h.
      
      Note that some harmless section mismatch warnings may result, since
      notify_cpu_starting() and cpu_up() are arch independent (kernel/cpu.c)
      are flagged as __cpuinit  -- so if we remove the __cpuinit from
      arch specific callers, we will also get section mismatch warnings.
      As an intermediate step, we intend to turn the linux/init.h cpuinit
      content into no-ops as early as possible, since that will get rid
      of these warnings.  In any case, they are temporary and harmless.
      
      This removes all the arch/s390 uses of the __cpuinit macros from
      all C files.  Currently s390 does not have any __CPUINIT used in
      assembly files.

      mm: concentrate modification of totalram_pages into the mm core · 0c988534
      Jiang Liu authored
      
      Concentrate code to modify totalram_pages into the mm core, so the arch
      memory initialized code doesn't need to take care of it.  With these
      changes applied, only following functions from mm core modify global
      variable totalram_pages: free_bootmem_late(), free_all_bootmem(),
      free_all_bootmem_node(), adjust_managed_page_count().
      
      With this patch applied, it will be much more easier for us to keep
      totalram_pages and zone->managed_pages in consistence.

      mm: enhance free_reserved_area() to support poisoning memory with zero · dbe67df4
      Jiang Liu authored
      
      Address more review comments from last round of code review.
      1) Enhance free_reserved_area() to support poisoning freed memory with
         pattern '0'. This could be used to get rid of poison_init_mem()
         on ARM64.
      2) A previous patch has disabled memory poison for initmem on s390
         by mistake, so restore to the original behavior.
      3) Remove redundant PAGE_ALIGN() when calling free_reserved_area().

      sparse-vmemmap: specify vmemmap population range in bytes · 0aad818b
      Johannes Weiner authored
      
      The sparse code, when asking the architecture to populate the vmemmap,
      specifies the section range as a starting page and a number of pages.
      
      This is an awkward interface, because none of the arch-specific code
      actually thinks of the range in terms of 'struct page' units and always
      translates it to bytes first.
      
      In addition, later patches mix huge page and regular page backing for
      the vmemmap.  For this, they need to call vmemmap_populate_basepages()
      on sub-section ranges with PAGE_SIZE and PMD_SIZE in mind.  But these
      are not necessarily multiples of the 'struct page' size and so this unit
      is too coarse.
      
      Just translate the section range into bytes once in the generic sparse
      code, then pass byte ranges down the stack.

      mm/hugetlb: add more arch-defined huge_pte functions · 106c992a
      Gerald Schaefer authored
      
      Commit abf09bed ("s390/mm: implement software dirty bits")
      introduced another difference in the pte layout vs.  the pmd layout on
      s390, thoroughly breaking the s390 support for hugetlbfs.  This requires
      replacing some more pte_xxx functions in mm/hugetlbfs.c with a
      huge_pte_xxx version.
      
      This patch introduces those huge_pte_xxx functions and their generic
      implementation in asm-generic/hugetlb.h, which will now be included on
      all architectures supporting hugetlbfs apart from s390.  This change
      will be a no-op for those architectures.
