dma-mapping: always provide the dma_map_ops based implementation

2016-01-21T01:09:18Z

Move the generic implementation to now that all architectures support it and remove the HAVE_DMA_ATTR Kconfig symbol now that everyone supports them.

arm64: mm: support ARCH_MMAP_RND_BITS

2016-01-15T00:00:49Z

arm64: arch_mmap_rnd() uses STACK_RND_MASK to generate the random offset for the mmap base address. This value represents a compromise between increased ASLR effectiveness and avoiding address-space fragmentation. Replace it with a Kconfig option, which is sensibly bounded, so that platform developers may choose where to place this compromise. Keep default values as new minimums.

Pull libnvdimm updates from Dan Williams: "The bulk of this has appeared in -next and independently received a build success notification from the kbuild robot. The 'for-4.5/block- dax' topic branch was rebased over the weekend to drop the "block device end-of-life" rework that Al would like to see re-implemented with a notifier, and to address bug reports against the badblocks integration. There is pending feedback against "libnvdimm: Add a poison list and export badblocks" received last week. Linda identified some localized fixups that we will handle incrementally. Summary: - Media error handling: The 'badblocks' implementation that originated in md-raid is up-levelled to a generic capability of a block device. This initial implementation is limited to being consulted in the pmem block-i/o path. Later, 'badblocks' will be consulted when creating dax mappings. - Raw block device dax: For virtualization and other cases that want large contiguous mappings of persistent memory, add the capability to dax-mmap a block device directly. - Increased /dev/mem restrictions: Add an option to treat all io-memory as IORESOURCE_EXCLUSIVE, i.e. disable /dev/mem access while a driver is actively using an address range. This behavior is controlled via the new CONFIG_IO_STRICT_DEVMEM option and can be overridden by the existing "iomem=relaxed" kernel command line option. - Miscellaneous fixes include a 'pfn'-device huge page alignment fix, block device shutdown crash fix, and other small libnvdimm fixes" * tag 'libnvdimm-for-4.5' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm: (32 commits) block: kill disk_{check|set|clear|alloc}_badblocks libnvdimm, pmem: nvdimm_read_bytes() badblocks support pmem, dax: disable dax in the presence of bad blocks pmem: fail io-requests to known bad blocks libnvdimm: convert to statically allocated badblocks libnvdimm: don't fail init for full badblocks list block, badblocks: introduce devm_init_badblocks block: clarify badblocks lifetime badblocks: rename badblocks_free to badblocks_exit libnvdimm, pmem: move definition of nvdimm_namespace_add_poison to nd.h libnvdimm: Add a poison list and export badblocks nfit_test: Enable DSMs for all test NFITs md: convert to use the generic badblocks code block: Add badblock management for gendisks badblocks: Add core badblock management code block: fix del_gendisk() vs blkdev_ioctl crash block: enable dax for raw block devices block: introduce bdev_file_inode() restrict /dev/mem to idle io memory ranges arch: consolidate CONFIG_STRICT_DEVM in lib/Kconfig.debug ...

arm64: hugetlb: add support for PTE contiguous bit

2015-12-21T17:26:00Z

The arm64 MMU supports a Contiguous bit which is a hint that the TTE is one of a set of contiguous entries which can be cached in a single TLB entry. Supporting this bit adds new intermediate huge page sizes. The set of huge page sizes available depends on the base page size. Without using contiguous pages the huge page sizes are as follows. 4KB: 2MB 1GB 64KB: 512MB With a 4KB granule, the contiguous bit groups together sets of 16 pages and with a 64KB granule it groups sets of 32 pages. This enables two new huge page sizes in each case, so that the full set of available sizes is as follows. 4KB: 64KB 2MB 32MB 1GB 64KB: 2MB 512MB 16GB If a 16KB granule is used then the contiguous bit groups 128 pages at the PTE level and 32 pages at the PMD level. If the base page size is set to 64KB then 2MB pages are enabled by default. It is possible in the future to make 2MB the default huge page size for both 4KB and 64KB granules.

arm64: introduce CONFIG_PARAVIRT, PARAVIRT_TIME_ACCOUNTING and pv_time_ops

2015-12-21T14:40:54Z

Introduce CONFIG_PARAVIRT and PARAVIRT_TIME_ACCOUNTING on ARM64. Necessary duplication of paravirt.h and paravirt.c with ARM. The only paravirt interface supported is pv_time_ops.steal_clock, so no runtime pvops patching needed. This allows us to make use of steal_account_process_tick for stolen ticks accounting.
