[RFC v3 01/23] powerpc: Free up four 64K PTE bits in 4K backed HPTE pages

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Rearrange 64K PTE bits to  free  up  bits 3, 4, 5  and  6,
in the 4K backed HPTE pages. These bits continue to be used
for 64K backed HPTE pages in this patch,  but will be freed
up in the next patch. The  bit  numbers  are big-endian  as
defined in the ISA3.0

The patch does the following change to the 64K PTE format

H_PAGE_BUSY moves from bit 3 to bit 9
H_PAGE_F_SECOND which occupied bit 4 moves to the second part
	of the pte.
H_PAGE_F_GIX which  occupied bit 5, 6 and 7 also moves to the
	second part of the pte.

the four  bits((H_PAGE_F_SECOND|H_PAGE_F_GIX) that represent a slot
is  initialized  to  0xF  indicating  an invalid  slot.  If  a HPTE
gets cached in a 0xF  slot(i.e  7th  slot  of  secondary),  it   is
released immediately. In  other  words, even  though   0xF   is   a
valid slot we discard  and consider it as an invalid
slot;i.e HPTE(). This  gives  us  an opportunity to not
depend on a bit in the primary PTE in order to determine the
validity of a slot.

When  we  release  a    HPTE   in the 0xF   slot we also   release a
legitimate primary   slot  and    unmap    that  entry. This  is  to
ensure  that we do get a   legimate   non-0xF  slot the next time we
retry for a slot.

Though treating 0xF slot as invalid reduces the number of available
slots  and  may  have an effect  on the performance, the probabilty
of hitting a 0xF is extermely low.

Compared  to the current scheme, the above described scheme reduces
the number of false hash table updates  significantly  and  has the
added  advantage  of  releasing  four  valuable  PTE bits for other
purpose.

This idea was jointly developed by Paul Mackerras, Aneesh, Michael
Ellermen and myself.

4K PTE format remain unchanged currently.
