The PAT bit gets relocated to bit 12 when PUD/PMD mappings are used. This bit 12, however, is not covered by PTE_FLAGS_MASK, which is corrently used for masking pfn and flags for all levels. This patch-set updates pud/pmd interfaces and multiple functions to handle the large PAT bit properly.
Patch 1/10-2/10 make changes necessary for patch 3/10 to use P?D_PAGE_MASK. Patch 3/10 fixes pud/pmd interfaces to handle the PAT bit properly, and patch 4/10 adds p?d_pgprot() interfaces for PUD/PMD. Patch 5/10 fixes /sys/kernel/debug/kernel_page_tables to show the PAT bit properly. Patch 6/10-9/10 fix multiple functions to handle the large PAT bit properly. Patch 10/10 fix the same pgprot handling in try_preserve_large_page() by leveraging the changes made in patch 8/10. Note, the PAT bit is first enabled in 4.2-rc1 with WT mappings. The functions fixed by patch 6/10-9/10 are not used with WT mappings yet. These fixes will protect them from future use with the PAT bit set. --- v3: - Add patch 4/10 and 6/10-9/10 for multiple interfaces to handle the large PAT bit. - Add patch 10/10 to fix the same pgprot handling in try_preserve_large_page(). v2: - Change p?n_pfn() to handle the PAT bit. (Juergen Gross) - Mask pfn and flags with P?D_PAGE_MASK. (Juergen Gross) - Change p?d_page_vaddr() and p?d_page() to handle the PAT bit. --- Toshi Kani (10): 1/10 x86/vdso32: Define PGTABLE_LEVELS to 32bit VDSO 2/10 x86/asm: Move PUD_PAGE macros to page_types.h 3/10 x86/asm: Fix pud/pmd interfaces to handle large PAT bit 4/10 x86/asm: Add pud_pgprot() and pmd_pgprot() 5/10 x86/mm: Fix page table dump to show PAT bit 6/10 x86/mm: Fix slow_virt_to_phys() to handle large PAT bit 7/10 x86/mm: Fix gup_huge_p?d() to handle large PAT bit 8/10 x86/mm: Fix try_preserve_large_page() to handle large PAT bit 9/10 x86/mm: Fix __split_large_page() to handle large PAT bit 10/10 x86/mm: Fix the same pgprot handling in try_preserve_large_page() --- arch/x86/entry/vdso/vdso32/vclock_gettime.c | 2 + arch/x86/include/asm/page_64_types.h | 3 -- arch/x86/include/asm/page_types.h | 3 ++ arch/x86/include/asm/pgtable.h | 18 ++++--- arch/x86/include/asm/pgtable_types.h | 40 +++++++++++++-- arch/x86/mm/dump_pagetables.c | 39 +++++++------- arch/x86/mm/gup.c | 18 +++---- arch/x86/mm/pageattr.c | 79 ++++++++++++++++++----------- 8 files changed, 131 insertions(+), 71 deletions(-) -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
