2008-04-17x86: account overlapped mappings in max_pfn_mappedAndi Kleen
When end_pfn is not aligned to 2MB (or 1GB) then the kernel might map more memory than end_pfn. Account this in max_pfn_mapped.

2008-04-17x86: implement true end_pfn_mapped for 32bitAndi Kleen
Even on 32bit 2MB pages can map more memory than is in the true max_low_pfn if end_pfn is not highmem and not aligned to 2MB. Add a end_pfn_map similar to x86-64 that accounts for this fact. This is important for code that really needs to know about all mapping aliases.

2008-04-17x86: increase the kernel text limit to 512 MBIngo Molnar
people sometimes do crazy stuff like building really large static arrays into their kernels or building allyesconfig kernels. Give more space to the kernel and push modules up a bit: kernel has 512 MB and modules have 1.5 GB. Should be enough for a few years ;-) Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2008-02-26x86: rename KERNEL_TEXT_SIZE => KERNEL_IMAGE_SIZEIngo Molnar
The KERNEL_TEXT_SIZE constant was mis-named, as we not only map the kernel text but data, bss and init sections as well. That name led me on the wrong path with the KERNEL_TEXT_SIZE regression, because i knew how big of _text_ my images have and i knew about the 40 MB "text" limit so i wrongly thought to be on the safe side of the 40 MB limit with my 29 MB of text, while the total image size was slightly above 40 MB.

2008-02-26x86: fix spontaneous reboot with allyesconfig bzImageIngo Molnar
recently the 64-bit allyesconfig bzImage kernel started spontaneously rebooting during early bootup. after a few fun hours spent with early init debugging, it turns out that we've got this rather annoying limit on the size of the kernel image: #define KERNEL_TEXT_SIZE (40*1024*1024) which limit my vmlinux just happened to pass: text data bss dec hex filename 29703744 4222751 8646224 42572719 2899baf vmlinux 40 MB is 42572719 bytes, so my vmlinux was just 1.5% above this limit :-/ So it happily crashed right in head_64.S, which - as we all know - is the most debuggable code in the whole architecture ;-) So increase the limit to allow an up to 128MB kernel image to be mapped. (should anyone be that crazy or lazy) We have a full 4K of pagetable (level2_kernel_pgt) allocated for these mappings already, so there's no RAM overhead and the limit was rather pointless and arbitrary.

2008-02-08CONFIG_HIGHPTE vs. sub-page page tables.Martin Schwidefsky
Background: I've implemented 1K/2K page tables for s390. These sub-page page tables are required to properly support the s390 virtualization instruction with KVM. The SIE instruction requires that the page tables have 256 page table entries (pte) followed by 256 page status table entries (pgste). The pgstes are only required if the process is using the SIE instruction. The pgstes are updated by the hardware and by the hypervisor for a number of reasons, one of them is dirty and reference bit tracking. To avoid wasting memory the standard pte table allocation should return 1K/2K (31/64 bit) and 2K/4K if the process is using SIE. Problem: Page size on s390 is 4K, page table size is 1K or 2K. That means the s390 version for pte_alloc_one cannot return a pointer to a struct page. Trouble is that with the CONFIG_HIGHPTE feature on x86 pte_alloc_one cannot return a pointer to a pte either, since that would require more than 32 bit for the return value of pte_alloc_one (and the pte * would not be accessible since its not kmapped). Solution: The only solution I found to this dilemma is a new typedef: a pgtable_t. For s390 pgtable_t will be a (pte *) - to be introduced with a later patch. For everybody else it will be a (struct page *). The additional problem with the initialization of the ptl lock and the NR_PAGETABLE accounting is solved with a constructor pgtable_page_ctor and a destructor pgtable_page_dtor. The page table allocation and free functions need to call these two whenever a page table page is allocated or freed. pmd_populate will get a pgtable_t instead of a struct page pointer. To get the pgtable_t back from a pmd entry that has been installed with pmd_populate a new function pmd_pgtable is added. It replaces the pmd_page call in free_pte_range and apply_to_pte_range.

2008-01-30x86: page.h: make pte_t a union to always includeJeremy Fitzhardinge
Make sure pte_t, whatever its definition, has a pte element with type pteval_t. This allows common code to access it without needing to be specifically parameterised on what pagetable mode we're compiling for. For 32-bit, this means that pte_t becomes a union with "pte" and "{ pte_low, pte_high }" (PAE) or just "pte_low" (non-PAE).

2008-01-30x86: 64-bit, make sparsemem vmemmap the only memory modelChristoph Lameter
Use sparsemem as the only memory model for UP, SMP and NUMA. Measurements indicate that DISCONTIGMEM has a higher overhead than sparsemem. And FLATMEMs benefits are minimal. So I think its best to simply standardize on sparsemem. Results of page allocator tests (test can be had via git from slab git tree branch tests) Measurements in cycle counts. 1000 allocations were performed and then the average cycle count was calculated.

2007-10-16x86_64: SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP 2M page size supportChristoph Lameter
x86_64 uses 2M page table entries to map its 1-1 kernel space. We also implement the virtual memmap using 2M page table entries. So there is no additional runtime overhead over FLATMEM, initialisation is slightly more complex. As FLATMEM still references memory to obtain the mem_map pointer and SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP uses a compile time constant, SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP should be superior. With this SPARSEMEM becomes the most efficient way of handling virt_to_page, pfn_to_page and friends for UP, SMP and NUMA on x86_64.
