powerpc used to set the pte specific flags in set_pte_at(). This is different from other architectures. To be consistent with other architecture powerpc updated pfn_pte to set _PAGE_PTE with commit 379c926d6334 ("powerpc/mm: move setting pte specific flags to pfn_pte")
The commit didn't do the same w.r.t pfn_pmd because we expect pmd_mkhuge to do that. But as per Linus that is a bad rule [1]. Hence update pfn_pmd to set _PAGE_PTE. [1] " The rule that you must use "pmd_mkhuge()" seems _completely_ wrong. It's insane. The only valid use to ever make a pmd out of a pfn is to make a huge-page." message-id: CAHk-=whG+Z2mBFTT026PZAdjn=gsslk9bk0wnyj5peyuvgf...@mail.gmail.com Signed-off-by: Aneesh Kumar K.V <aneesh.ku...@linux.ibm.com> --- arch/powerpc/include/asm/book3s/64/pgtable.h | 17 ++++++++++++++++- arch/powerpc/mm/book3s64/pgtable.c | 8 +++++++- 2 files changed, 23 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/arch/powerpc/include/asm/book3s/64/pgtable.h b/arch/powerpc/include/asm/book3s/64/pgtable.h index cd3feeac6e87..a39886681629 100644 --- a/arch/powerpc/include/asm/book3s/64/pgtable.h +++ b/arch/powerpc/include/asm/book3s/64/pgtable.h @@ -1231,13 +1231,28 @@ static inline int pmd_same(pmd_t pmd_a, pmd_t pmd_b) return hash__pmd_same(pmd_a, pmd_b); } -static inline pmd_t pmd_mkhuge(pmd_t pmd) +static inline pmd_t __pmd_mkhuge(pmd_t pmd) { if (radix_enabled()) return radix__pmd_mkhuge(pmd); return hash__pmd_mkhuge(pmd); } +/* + * pfn_pmd return a pmd_t that can be used as pmd pte entry. + */ +static inline pmd_t pmd_mkhuge(pmd_t pmd) +{ +#ifdef CONFIG_DEBUG_VM + if (radix_enabled()) + WARN_ON((pmd_raw(pmd) & cpu_to_be64(_PAGE_PTE)) == 0); + else + WARN_ON((pmd_raw(pmd) & cpu_to_be64(_PAGE_PTE | H_PAGE_THP_HUGE)) != + cpu_to_be64(_PAGE_PTE | H_PAGE_THP_HUGE)); +#endif + return pmd; +} + #define __HAVE_ARCH_PMDP_SET_ACCESS_FLAGS extern int pmdp_set_access_flags(struct vm_area_struct *vma, unsigned long address, pmd_t *pmdp, diff --git a/arch/powerpc/mm/book3s64/pgtable.c b/arch/powerpc/mm/book3s64/pgtable.c index e18ae50a275c..5b3a3bae21aa 100644 --- a/arch/powerpc/mm/book3s64/pgtable.c +++ b/arch/powerpc/mm/book3s64/pgtable.c @@ -136,12 +136,18 @@ static pmd_t pmd_set_protbits(pmd_t pmd, pgprot_t pgprot) return __pmd(pmd_val(pmd) | pgprot_val(pgprot)); } +/* + * At some point we should be able to get rid of + * pmd_mkhuge() and mk_huge_pmd() when we update all the + * other archs to mark the pmd huge in pfn_pmd() + */ pmd_t pfn_pmd(unsigned long pfn, pgprot_t pgprot) { unsigned long pmdv; pmdv = (pfn << PAGE_SHIFT) & PTE_RPN_MASK; - return pmd_set_protbits(__pmd(pmdv), pgprot); + + return __pmd_mkhuge(pmd_set_protbits(__pmd(pmdv), pgprot)); } pmd_t mk_pmd(struct page *page, pgprot_t pgprot) -- 2.26.2
