Hi, This is v3 of the patchset which cleans up a number of minor issues from the feedback of v2 and rebases onto v5.6-rc2. Additional feedback is welcome. Thanks, Logan -- Changes in v3: * Rebased onto v5.6-rc2 * Rename mhp_modifiers to mhp_params per David with an updated kernel doc per Dan * Drop support for s390 per David seeing it does not support ZONE_DEVICE yet and there was a potential problem with huge pages. * Added WARN_ON_ONCE in cases where arches recieve non PAGE_KERNEL parameters * Collected David and Micheal's Reviewed-By and Acked-by Tags Changes in v2: * Rebased onto v5.5-rc5 * Renamed mhp_restrictions to mhp_modifiers and added the pgprot field to that structure instead of using an argument for arch_add_memory(). * Add patch to drop the unused flags field in mhp_restrictions A git branch is available here: https://github.com/sbates130272/linux-p2pmem remap_pages_cache_v3 -- Currently, the page tables created using memremap_pages() are always created with the PAGE_KERNEL cacheing mode. However, the P2PDMA code is creating pages for PCI BAR memory which should never be accessed through the cache and instead use either WC or UC. This still works in most cases, on x86, because the MTRR registers typically override the caching settings in the page tables for all of the IO memory to be UC-. However, this tends not to work so well on other arches or some rare x86 machines that have firmware which does not setup the MTRR registers in this way. Instead of this, this series proposes a change to arch_add_memory() to take the pgprot required by the mapping which allows us to explicitly set pagetable entries for P2PDMA memory to WC. This changes is pretty routine for most of the arches: x86_64, s390, arm64 and powerpc simply need to thread the pgprot through to where the page tables are setup. x86_32 unfortunately sets up the page tables at boot so must use _set_memory_prot() to change their caching mode. ia64 and sh don't appear to have an easy way to change the page tables so, for now at least, we just return -EINVAL on such mappings and thus they will not support P2PDMA memory until the work for this is done. -- Logan Gunthorpe (7): mm/memory_hotplug: Drop the flags field from struct mhp_restrictions mm/memory_hotplug: Rename mhp_restrictions to mhp_params x86/mm: Thread pgprot_t through init_memory_mapping() x86/mm: Introduce _set_memory_prot() powerpc/mm: Thread pgprot_t through create_section_mapping() mm/memory_hotplug: Add pgprot_t to mhp_params mm/memremap: Set caching mode for PCI P2PDMA memory to WC arch/arm64/mm/mmu.c | 7 ++-- arch/ia64/mm/init.c | 7 ++-- arch/powerpc/include/asm/book3s/64/hash.h | 3 +- arch/powerpc/include/asm/book3s/64/radix.h | 3 +- arch/powerpc/include/asm/sparsemem.h | 3 +- arch/powerpc/mm/book3s64/hash_utils.c | 5 +-- arch/powerpc/mm/book3s64/pgtable.c | 7 ++-- arch/powerpc/mm/book3s64/radix_pgtable.c | 18 ++++++---- arch/powerpc/mm/mem.c | 10 +++--- arch/s390/mm/init.c | 9 +++-- arch/sh/mm/init.c | 7 ++-- arch/x86/include/asm/page_types.h | 3 -- arch/x86/include/asm/pgtable.h | 3 ++ arch/x86/include/asm/set_memory.h | 1 + arch/x86/kernel/amd_gart_64.c | 3 +- arch/x86/mm/init.c | 9 ++--- arch/x86/mm/init_32.c | 12 +++++-- arch/x86/mm/init_64.c | 40 ++++++++++++---------- arch/x86/mm/mm_internal.h | 3 +- arch/x86/mm/pat/set_memory.c | 7 ++++ arch/x86/platform/uv/bios_uv.c | 3 +- include/linux/memory_hotplug.h | 20 +++++------ mm/memory_hotplug.c | 11 +++--- mm/memremap.c | 17 +++++---- 24 files changed, 130 insertions(+), 81 deletions(-) base-commit: 11a48a5a18c63fd7621bb050228cebf13566e4d8 -- 2.20.1
