Hugh Dickins b9c3bfc24e x86: align DirectMap in /proc/meminfo
Impact: right-align /proc/meminfo consistent with other fields

When the split-LRU patches added Inactive(anon) and Inactive(file) lines
to /proc/meminfo, all counts were moved two columns rightwards to fit in.
Now move x86's DirectMap lines two columns rightwards to line up.

Nick Piggin db64fe0225 mm: rewrite vmap layer
Rewrite the vmap allocator to use rbtrees and lazy tlb flushing, and
provide a fast, scalable percpu frontend for small vmaps (requires a
slightly different API, though).

The biggest problem with vmap is actually vunmap.  Presently this requires
a global kernel TLB flush, which on most architectures is a broadcast IPI
to all CPUs to flush the cache.  This is all done under a global lock.  As
the number of CPUs increases, so will the number of vunmaps a scaled
workload will want to perform, and so will the cost of a global TLB flush.
 This gives terrible quadratic scalability characteristics.

Another problem is that the entire vmap subsystem works under a single
lock.  It is a rwlock, but it is actually taken for write in all the fast
paths, and the read locking would likely never be run concurrently anyway,
so it's just pointless.

This is a rewrite of vmap subsystem to solve those problems.  The existing
vmalloc API is implemented on top of the rewritten subsystem.

The TLB flushing problem is solved by using lazy TLB unmapping.  vmap
addresses do not have to be flushed immediately when they are vunmapped,
because the kernel will not reuse them again (would be a use-after-free)
until they are reallocated.  So the addresses aren't allocated again until
a subsequent TLB flush.  A single TLB flush then can flush multiple
vunmaps from each CPU.

XEN and PAT and such do not like deferred TLB flushing because they can't
always handle multiple aliasing virtual addresses to a physical address.
They now call vm_unmap_aliases() in order to flush any deferred mappings.
That call is very expensive (well, actually not a lot more expensive than
a single vunmap under the old scheme), however it should be OK if not
called too often.

The virtual memory extent information is stored in an rbtree rather than a
linked list to improve the algorithmic scalability.

There is a per-CPU allocator for small vmaps, which amortizes or avoids
global locking.

To use the per-CPU interface, the vm_map_ram / vm_unmap_ram interfaces
must be used in place of vmap and vunmap.  Vmalloc does not use these
interfaces at the moment, so it will not be quite so scalable (although it
will use lazy TLB flushing).

As a quick test of performance, I ran a test that loops in the kernel,
linearly mapping then touching then unmapping 4 pages.  Different numbers
of tests were run in parallel on an 4 core, 2 socket opteron.  Results are
in nanoseconds per map+touch+unmap.

threads           vanilla         vmap rewrite
1                 14700           2900
2                 33600           3000
4                 49500           2800
8                 70631           2900

So with a 8 cores, the rewritten version is already 25x faster.

In a slightly more realistic test (although with an older and less
scalable version of the patch), I ripped the not-very-good vunmap batching
code out of XFS, and implemented the large buffer mapping with vm_map_ram
and vm_unmap_ram...  along with a couple of other tricks, I was able to
speed up a large directory workload by 20x on a 64 CPU system.  I believe
vmap/vunmap is actually sped up a lot more than 20x on such a system, but
I'm running into other locks now.  vmap is pretty well blown off the
profiles.

Suresh Siddha ad5ca55f6b x86, cpa: srlz cpa(), global flush tlb after splitting big page and before doing cpa
Do a global flush tlb after splitting the large page and before we do the
actual change page attribute in the PTE.

With out this, we violate the TLB application note, which says
    "The TLBs may contain both ordinary and large-page translations for
     a 4-KByte range of linear addresses. This may occur if software
     modifies the paging structures so that the page size used for the
     address range changes. If the two translations differ with respect
     to page frame or attributes (e.g., permissions), processor behavior
     is undefined and may be implementation-specific."

And also serialize cpa() (for !DEBUG_PAGEALLOC which uses large identity
mappings) using cpa_lock. So that we don't allow any other cpu, with stale
large tlb entries change the page attribute in parallel to some other cpu
splitting a large page entry along with changing the attribute.

Nick Piggin 5843d9a4d0 x86, pat: avoid highmem cache attribute aliasing
Highmem code can leave ptes and tlb entries around for a given page even after
kunmap, and after it has been freed.

>From what I can gather, the PAT code may change the cache attributes of
arbitrary physical addresses (ie. including highmem pages), which would result
in aliases in the case that it operates on one of these lazy tlb highmem
pages.

Flushing kmaps should solve the problem.

I've also just added code for conditional flushing if we haven't got
any dangling highmem aliases -- this should help performance if we
change page attributes frequently or systems that aren't using much
highmem pages (eg. if < 4G RAM). Should be turned into 2 patches, but
just for RFC...

Hugh Dickins a06de63000 x86: fix /proc/meminfo DirectMap
Do we actually want these DirectMap lines in the x86 /proc/meminfo?
I can see they're interesting to CPA developers and TLB optimizers,
but they don't fit its usual "where has all my memory gone?" usage.
If they are to stay, here are some fixes.

1. On x86_32 without PAE, they're not 2M but 4M pages: no need to
   mess with the internal enum, but show the right name to users.

2. Many machines can never show anything but 0 for DirectMap1G,
   so suppress that line unless direct_gbpages are really enabled.

3. The unit in /proc/meminfo is kB not number of pages: HugePages
   messed that up, but they're an example to regret not to follow.

4. Once we use kB, it's easy to see that 1GB has gone missing (which
   explains why CONFIG_CPA_DEBUG=y soon wraps DirectMap2M negative):
   because head_64.S's level2_ident_pgt entries were not counted.
   My fix is not ideal, but works for more and for less than 1G,
   and avoids interfering with early bootup pagetable contortions.

Andi Kleen ce0c0e50f9 x86, generic: CPA add statistics about state of direct mapping v4
Add information about the mapping state of the direct mapping to
/proc/meminfo. I chose /proc/meminfo because that is where all the other
memory statistics are too and it is a generally useful metric even
outside debugging situations. A lot of split kernel pages means the
kernel will run slower.

This way we can see how many large pages are really used for it and how
many are split.

Useful for general insight into the kernel.

v2: Add hotplug locking to 64bit to plug a very obscure theoretical race.
    32bit doesn't need it because it doesn't support hotadd for lowmem.
    Fix some typos
v3: Rename dpages_cnt

Suresh Siddha de33c442ed x86 PAT: fix performance drop for glx, use UC minus for ioremap(), ioremap_nocache() and pci_mmap_page_range()
Use UC_MINUS for ioremap(), ioremap_nocache() instead of strong UC.
Once all the X drivers move to ioremap_wc(), we can go back to strong
UC semantics for ioremap() and ioremap_nocache().

To avoid attribute aliasing issues, pci_mmap_page_range() will also
use UC_MINUS for default non write-combining mapping request.

Next steps:
	a) change all the video drivers using ioremap() or ioremap_nocache()
	   and adding WC MTTR using mttr_add() to ioremap_wc()

	b) for strict usage, we can go back to strong uc semantics
	   for ioremap() and ioremap_nocache() after some grace period for
	   completing step-a.

	c) user level X server needs to use the appropriate method for setting
	   up WC mapping (like using resourceX_wc sysfs file instead of
	   adding MTRR for WC and using /dev/mem or resourceX under /sys)

venkatesh.pallipadi@intel.com 2e5d9c857d x86: PAT infrastructure patch
Sets up pat_init() infrastructure.

PAT MSR has following setting.
	PAT
	|PCD
	||PWT
	|||
	000 WB		_PAGE_CACHE_WB
	001 WC		_PAGE_CACHE_WC
	010 UC-		_PAGE_CACHE_UC_MINUS
	011 UC		_PAGE_CACHE_UC

We are effectively changing WT from boot time setting to WC.
UC_MINUS is used to provide backward compatibility to existing /dev/mem
users(X).

reserve_memtype and free_memtype are new interfaces for maintaining alias-free
mapping. It is currently implemented in a simple way with a linked list and
not optimized. reserve and free tracks the effective memory type, as a result
of PAT and MTRR setting rather than what is actually requested in PAT.

pat_init piggy backs on mtrr_init as the rules for setting both pat and mtrr
are same.

Suresh Siddha d546b67a94 x86: fix performance drop for glx
fix the 3D performance drop reported at:

   http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10328

fb drivers are using ioremap()/ioremap_nocache(), followed by mtrr_add with
WC attribute. Recent changes in page attribute code made both
ioremap()/ioremap_nocache() mappings as UC (instead of previous UC-). This
breaks the graphics performance, as the effective memory type is UC instead
of expected WC.

The correct way to fix this is to add ioremap_wc() (which uses UC- in the
absence of PAT kernel support and WC with PAT) and change all the
fb drivers to use this new ioremap_wc() API.

We can take this correct and longer route for post 2.6.25. For now,
revert back to the UC- behavior for ioremap/ioremap_nocache.

      x86: CPA: avoid split of alias mappings

because it clearly mishandles the case when __change_page_attr(), called
from __change_page_attr_set_clr(), changes cpa->processed to 1 and
cpa_process_alias(cpa) is executed right after that.

This crashes my x86-64 test box early in the boot process
(ref. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10140#c4).

Thomas Gleixner 8be8f54bae x86: CPA: avoid split of alias mappings
avoid over-eager large page splitup.

When the target area needs to be split or is split already (ioremap)
then the current code enforces the split of large mappings in the alias
regions even if we could avoid it.

Use a separate variable processed in the cpa_data structure to carry
the number of pages which have been processed instead of reusing the
numpages variable. This keeps numpages intact and gives the alias code
a chance to keep large mappings intact.
