IIRC, the headache was due to asm/pgtable.h on several architectures and
asm/cacheflush.h on parisc.
<digs the notes out>
|| IOW, there's one in linux/highmem.h (conditional on !CONFIG_HIGHMEM,
|| !ARCH_HAS_KMAP) and several per-architecture variants, usually declared in
|| their asm/highmem.h. In three of those (microblaze, parisc and powerpc) these
|| are inlines (parisc one identical to linux/highmem.h, lives in asm/cacheflush.h,
|| powerpc and microblaze ones calling kmap_atomic_prot() which is defined in
|| arch/$ARCH/mm/highmem.c).
||
|| parisc case is weird - essentially, they want to call
|| flush_kernel_dcache_page_addr() at the places where kunmap/kunmap_atomic
|| is done. And they do so despite not selecting HIGHMEM, with definitions
|| in usual place. They do have ARCH_HAS_KMAP defined, which prevents
|| getting buggered in linux/highmem.h. ARCH_HAS_KMAP is parisc-unique,
|| BTW, and checked only in linux/highmem.h.
||
|| All genuine arch-specific variants are defined in (or call functions
|| defined in) translation units that are only included CONFIG_HIGHMEM builds.
||
|| It would be tempting to consolidate those, e.g. by adding __kmap_atomic()
|| and __kmap_atomic_prot() without that boilerplate, with universal kmap_atomic()
|| and kmap_atomic_prot() in linux/highmem.h. Potential problem with that would
|| be something that pulls ash/highmem.h (or asm/cacheflush.h in case of parisc)
|| directly and uses kmap_atomic/kmap_atomic_prot. There's not a lot places
|| pulling asm/highmem.h, and many of them are not even in includes:
||
|| arch/arm/include/asm/efi.h:13:#include <asm/highmem.h>
|| arch/arm/mm/dma-mapping.c:31:#include <asm/highmem.h>
|| arch/arm/mm/flush.c:14:#include <asm/highmem.h>
|| arch/arm/mm/mmu.c:27:#include <asm/highmem.h>
|| arch/mips/include/asm/pgtable-32.h:22:#include <asm/highmem.h>
|| arch/mips/mm/cache.c:19:#include <asm/highmem.h>
|| arch/mips/mm/fault.c:28:#include <asm/highmem.h> /* For VMALLOC_END */
|| arch/nds32/include/asm/pgtable.h:60:#include <asm/highmem.h>
|| arch/x86/kernel/setup_percpu.c:20:#include <asm/highmem.h>
|| include/linux/highmem.h:35:#include <asm/highmem.h>
||
|| Users of asm/cacheflush.h are rather more numerous; however, anything
|| outside of parisc-specific code has to pull linux/highmem.h, or it won't see
|| the definitions of kmap_atomic/kmap_atomic_prot at all. arch/parisc itself
|| has no callers of those.
||
|| Outside of arch/* there is a plenty of callers. However, the following is
|| true: all instances of kmap_atomic or kmap_atomic_prot outside of arch/*
|| are either inside the linux/highmem.h or are preceded by include of
|| linux/highmem.h on any build that sees them (there is a common include
|| chain that is conditional upon CONFIG_BLOCK, but it's only needed in
|| drivers that are BLOCK-dependent). It was not fun to verify, to put
|| it mildly...
||
|| So for parisc we have no problem - leaving __kmap_atomic()/__kmap_atomic_prot()
|| in asm/cachefile.h and adding universal wrappers in linux/highmem.h will be
|| fine. For other architectures the things might be trickier.
||
|| * arc: all users in arch/arc/ are within arch/arc/mm/{cache,highmem}.c;
|| both pull linux/highmem.h. We are fine.
||
|| * arm: much, much worse. We have several files that pull linux/highmem.h:
|| arch/arm/mm/cache-feroceon-l2.c, arch/arm/mm/cache-xsc3l2.c,
|| arch/arm/mm/copypage-*.c, arch/arm/mm/dma-mapping.c, arch/arm/mm/flush.c,
|| arch/arm/mm/highmem.c, arch/arm/probes/uprobes/core.c,
|| arch/arm/include/asm/kvm_mmu.h (kmap_atomic_pfn()).
|| Those are fine, but we also have this:
|| arch/arm/include/asm/pgtable.h:200:#define __pte_map(pmd) (pte_t *)kmap_atomic(pmd_page(*(pmd)))
|| arch/arm/include/asm/pgtable.h:208:#define pte_offset_map(pmd,addr) (__pte_map(pmd) + pte_index(addr))
|| and sure as hell, asm/pgtable.h does *NOT* pull linux/highmem.h.
||
|| Fortunately, the users of pte_offset_map() (__pte_map() has no other users)
|| are few, both in arch/arm and outside of arch. All arm ones are pulling
|| linux/highmem (arch/arm/mm/{pgd,fault*}.c). Outside of arch we have several
|| that pull highmem.h (by way of rmap.h or pagemap.h, usually):
|| fs/userfaultfd.c, mm/gup.c, mm/hmm.c, mm/huge_memory.c,
|| mm/khugepaged.c, mm/memory-failure.c, mm/memory.c, mm/migrate.c,
|| mm/mremap.c, mm/page_vma_mapped.c, mm/swap_state.c, mm/swapfile.c,
|| mm/vmalloc.c
|| and then there are these in linux/mm.h:
||
|| #define pte_offset_map_lock(mm, pmd, address, ptlp) \
|| ({ \
|| spinlock_t *__ptl = pte_lockptr(mm, pmd); \
|| pte_t *__pte = pte_offset_map(pmd, address); \
|| *(ptlp) = __ptl; \
|| spin_lock(__ptl); \
|| __pte; \
|| })
|| #define pte_alloc_map(mm, pmd, address) \
|| (pte_alloc(mm, pmd) ? NULL : pte_offset_map(pmd, address))
|| #define pte_alloc_map_lock(mm, pmd, address, ptlp) \
|| (pte_alloc(mm, pmd) ? \
|| NULL : pte_offset_map_lock(mm, pmd, address, ptlp))
||
|| These have two users in arch/arm (arch/arm/mm/pgd.c and
|| arch/arm/lib/uaccess_with_memcpy.c, both pulling highmem.h). Outside of
|| arch there are several new files (plus a lot of what we'd already seen
|| in mm/*.c, unsurprisingly):
|| fs/proc/task_mmu.c, mm/ksm.c, mm/madvise.c, mm/memcontrol.c,
|| mm/mempolicy.c, mm/mincore.c, mm/mprotect.c, mm/pagewalk.c,
|| mm/shmem.c, mm/userfaultfd.c,
|| all pulling linux/highmem.h, as pretty much all core VM does. So we are
|| still fine.
||
|| * csky: users in arch/csky/abiv2/cacheflush.c, arch/csky/mm/dma-mapping.c,
|| arch/csky/mm/highmem.c, all pulling linux/highmem.h
||
|| * microblaze: users in arch/microblaze/mm/highmem.c (pulls linux/highmem.h) and,
|| arch/microblaze/include/asm/pgtable.h, this:
|| #define pte_offset_map(dir, addr) \
|| ((pte_t *) kmap_atomic(pmd_page(*(dir))) + pte_index(addr))
|| One pte_offset_map user in arch/microblaze:
|| arch/microblaze/kernel/signal.c:207: ptep = pte_offset_map(pmdp, address);
|| Messy, but doesn't require any changes (we have asm/pgalloc.h included
|| there, and that pull linux/highmem.h).
|| Outside of arch we'd already sorted it out when looking at arm.
||
|| * mips: users in arch/mips/kernel/crash_dump.c, arch/mips/kernel/uprobes.c,
|| arch/mips/mm/c-r4k.c, arch/mips/mm/dma-noncoherent.c, arch/mips/mm/highmem.c,
|| and arch/mips/mm/init.c (all pulling linux/highmem.h) plus this
|| arch/mips/mm/cache.c, which relies upon asm/highmem.h. This can be switched
|| to linux/highmem.h. On !CONFIG_HIGHMEM builds the call of kmap_atomic() in
|| there is eliminated, since it's conditional upon PageHighMem(). IOW, even
|| though we get a call of (inexistent) out-of-line version, it's not going to
|| survive into object file. With linux/highmem.h use it will be an equally
|| eliminated call of inlined version.
|| XXX: arch/mips/mm/cache.c
||
|| * nds32: users in arch/nds32/kernel/dma.c, arch/nds32/mm/cacheflush.c and
|| arch/nds32/mm/highmem.c, all pulling linux/highmem.h
||
|| * powerpc: users in arch/powerpc/kvm/book3s_pr.c,
|| arch/powerpc/kvm/e500_mmu_host.c, arch/powerpc/mm/dma-noncoherent.c,
|| arch/powerpc/mm/highmem.c and arch/powerpc/mm/mem.c, all pulling
|| linux/highmem.h, a user in arch/powerpc/mm/hugetlbpage.c pulling it
|| via asm/tlb.h -> linux/pagemap.h -> linux/highmem.h and
|| macros for pte_offset_map in arch/powerpc/include/asm/*/32/pgtable.h.
|| Users of that within arch/powerpc are either 64bit-only or
|| pull linux/highmem.h (arch/powerpc/mm/pgtable_32.c and
|| arch/powerpc/xmon/xmon.c). Users outside of arch - same as for arm.
||
|| * sparc: users in arch/sparc/kernel/uprobes.c and arch/sparc/mm/highmem.c
|| (both pulling linux/highmem.h directly) + arch/sparc/mm/init_64.c pulling
|| it via linux/pagemap.h. Strangely, arch/sparc/mm/io-unit.c and
|| arch/sparc/mm/iommu.c both include linux/highmem.h with odd comment
|| that seems to indicate that once upon a time pte_offset_map() used to
|| requite kmap_atomic() there... Right, it used to - until 2002.
|| These includes are pointless, then...
||
|| * x86: users in arch/x86/kernel/crash_dump_32.c, arch/x86/kvm/svm.c,
|| arch/x86/lib/usercopy_64.c, arch/x86/mm/highmem_32.c and arch/x86/mm/iomap_32.c,
|| all pulling linux/highmem.h, users in paging_tmpl.h (included from
|| arch/x86/kvm/mmu/mmu.c, which has pulled linux/highmem.h prior to that)
|| and definition of pte_offset_map() (in asm/pgtable_32.h)
|| Users of pte_offset_map() and friends in arch/x86 are in
|| arch/x86/kernel/vm86_32.c and arch/x86/mm/dump_pagetables.c (both
|| pulling linux/highmem.h), in arch/x86/mm/mem_encrypt_identity.c
|| (64bit-only, pte_offset_map() doesn't use kmap_atomic() there) and
|| arch/x86/kernel/tboot.c (pulls linux/highmem.h via asm/pgalloc.h
|| and linux/pagemap.h)
||
|| * xtensa: users in arch/xtensa/kernel/pci-dma.c, arch/xtensa/mm/highmem.c,
|| arch/xtensa/mm/cache.c and arch/xtensa/platforms/iss/simdisk.c (all pull
|| linux/highmem.h).
