[PATCH] powerpc: Fix pagetable bloat for hugepages

At present, ARCH=powerpc kernels can waste considerable space in
pagetables when making large hugepage mappings.  Hugepage PTEs go in
PMD pages, but each PMD page maps 256M and so contains only 16
hugepage PTEs (128 bytes of data), but takes up a 1024 byte
allocation.  With CONFIG_PPC_64K_PAGES enabled (64k base page size),
the situation is worse.  Now hugepage PTEs are at the PTE page level
(also mapping 256M), so we store 16 hugepage PTEs in a 64k allocation.

The PowerPC MMU already means that any 256M region is either all
hugepage, or all normal pages.  Thus, with some care, we can use a
different allocation for the hugepage PTE tables and only allocate the
128 bytes necessary.

capture the second page of the 2-page task/stack allocation.

associated with the first page of the allocation.  The page structures
associated with the other pages are unintialized.

If the dumper is selecting only kernel pages it has no way to identify

18 years ago[PATCH] x86/PAE: Fix pte_clear for the >4GB RAM case
Zachary Amsden [Thu, 27 Apr 2006 18:32:29 +0000 (11:32 -0700)]
[PATCH] x86/PAE: Fix pte_clear for the >4GB RAM case

Proposed fix for ptep_get_and_clear_full PAE bug.  Pte_clear had the same bug,
so use the same fix for both.  Turns out pmd_clear had it as well, but pgds
are not affected.

The problem is rather intricate.  Page table entries in PAE mode are 64-bits
wide, but the only atomic 8-byte write operation available in 32-bit mode is
cmpxchg8b, which is expensive (at least on P4), and thus avoided.  But it can
happen that the processor may prefetch entries into the TLB in the middle of an
operation which clears a page table entry.  So one must always clear the P-bit
in the low word of the page table entry first when clearing it.

Since the sequence *ptep = __pte(0) leaves the order of the write dependent on
the compiler, it must be coded explicitly as a clear of the low word followed
by a clear of the high word.  Further, there must be a write memory barrier
here to enforce proper ordering by the compiler (and, in the future, by the
processor as well).

On > 4GB memory machines, the implementation of pte_clear for PAE was clearly
deficient, as it could leave virtual mappings of physical memory above 4GB
aliased to memory below 4GB in the TLB.  The implementation of
ptep_get_and_clear_full has a similar bug, although not nearly as likely to
occur, since the mappings being cleared are in the process of being destroyed,
and should never be dereferenced again.

But, as luck would have it, it is possible to trigger bugs even without ever
dereferencing these bogus TLB mappings, even if the clear is followed fairly
soon after with a TLB flush or invalidation.  The problem is that memory above
4GB may now be aliased into the first 4GB of memory, and in fact, may hit a
region of memory with non-memory semantics.  These regions include AGP and PCI
space.  As such, these memory regions are not cached by the processor.  This
introduces the bug.

The processor can speculate memory operations, including memory writes, as long
as they are committed with the proper ordering.  Speculating a memory write to
a linear address that has a bogus TLB mapping is possible.  Normally, the
speculation is harmless.  But for cached memory, it does leave the falsely
speculated cacheline unmodified, but in a dirty state.  This cache line will be
eventually written back.  If this cacheline happens to intersect a region of
memory that is not protected by the cache coherency protocol, it can corrupt
data in I/O memory, which is generally a very bad thing to do, and can cause
total system failure or just plain undefined behavior.

These bugs are extremely unlikely, but the severity is of such magnitude, and
the fix so simple that I think fixing them immediately is justified.  Also,
they are nearly impossible to debug.

A deadlock was possible, when the last reference to the superblock was
held due to a background request containing a file reference.

Releasing the file would release the vfsmount which in turn would
release the superblock.  Since sbput_sem is held during the fput() and
fuse_put_super() tries to acquire this same semaphore, a deadlock
results.
