2010-03-30include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking ↵Tejun Heo
implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies. percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is used as the basis of conversion. http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py The script does the followings. * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used, gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h. * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered - alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there doesn't seem to be any matching order. * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the file. The conversion was done in the following steps. 1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400 files. 2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion, some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added inclusions to around 150 files. 3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits from #2 to make sure no file was left behind. 4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed. e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually. 5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as necessary. 6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h. 7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq). * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config. * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig * ia64 SMP allmodconfig * s390 SMP allmodconfig * alpha SMP allmodconfig * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig 8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as a separate patch and serve as bisection point. Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step 6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch. If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of the specific arch.

In commit 07613ba2 ("agp: switch AGP to use page array instead of unsigned long array") we switched the mask_memory() method to take a 'struct page *' instead of an address.

2008-08-12intel/agp: rewrite GTT on resumeKeith Packard
On my Intel chipset (965GM), the GTT is entirely erased across suspend/resume. This patch simply re-plays the current mapping at resume time to restore the table.=20 I noticed this once I started relying on persistent GTT mappings across VT switch in our GEM work -- the old X server and DRM code carefully unbind all memory from the GTT on VT switch, but GEM does not bother. I placed the list management and rewrite code in the generic layer on the assumption that it will be needed on other hardware, but I did not add the rewrite call to anything other than the Intel resume function. Keep a list of current GATT mappings. At resume time, rewrite them into the GATT. This is needed on Intel (at least) as the entire GATT is cleared across suspend/resume.

2008-06-19agp: two-stage page destruction issueJan Beulich
besides it apparently being useful only in 2.6.24 (the changes in 2.6.25 really mean that it could be converted back to a single-stage mechanism), I'm seeing an issue in Xen Dom0 kernels, which is caused by the calling of gart_to_virt() in the second stage invocations of the destroy function. I think that besides this being a real issue with Xen (where unmap_page_from_agp() is not just a page table attribute change), this also is invalid from a theoretical perspective: One should not assume that gart_to_virt() is still valid after unmapping a page. So minimally (keeping the 2-stage mechanism) a patch like the one below would be needed. Jan Signed-off-by: Dave Airlie <airlied@redhat.com>
2008-02-19fix historic ioremap() abuse in AGPArjan van dev Ven
Several AGP drivers right now use ioremap_nocache() on kernel ram in order to turn a page of regular memory uncached. There are two problems with this: 1) This is a total nightmare for the ioremap() implementation to keep various mappings of the same page coherent. 2) It's a total nightmare for the AGP code since it adds a ton of complexity in terms of keeping track of 2 different pointers to the same thing, in terms of error handling etc etc. This patch fixes this by making the AGP drivers use the new set_memory_XX APIs instead. Note: amd-k7-agp.c is built on Alpha too, and generic.c is built on ia64 as well, which do not yet have the set_memory_*() APIs, so for them some we have a few ugly #ifdefs - hopefully they'll be fixed soon.

2008-02-05agp: add chipset flushing support to AGP interfaceDave Airlie
This bumps the AGP interface to 0.103. Certain Intel chipsets contains a global write buffer, and this can require flushing from the drm or X.org to make sure all data has hit RAM before initiating a GPU transfer, due to a lack of coherency with the integrated graphics device and this buffer. This just adds generic support to the AGP interfaces, a follow-on patch will add support to the Intel driver to use this interface. Signed-off-by: Dave Airlie <airlied@redhat.com>

With Andi's clflush fixup, we were getting hangs on server exit, flushing the mappings after freeing each page helped. This showed up a race condition where the pages after being freed could be reused before the agp mappings had been flushed. Flushing after each single page is a bad thing for future drm work, so make the page destroy a two pass unmapping all the pages, flushing the mappings, and then destroying the pages.

2007-05-21Detach sched.h from mm.hAlexey Dobriyan
First thing mm.h does is including sched.h solely for can_do_mlock() inline function which has "current" dereference inside. By dealing with can_do_mlock() mm.h can be detached from sched.h which is good. See below, why. This patch a) removes unconditional inclusion of sched.h from mm.h b) makes can_do_mlock() normal function in mm/mlock.c c) exports can_do_mlock() to not break compilation d) adds sched.h inclusions back to files that were getting it indirectly. e) adds less bloated headers to some files (asm/signal.h, jiffies.h) that were getting them indirectly Net result is: a) mm.h users would get less code to open, read, preprocess, parse, ... if they don't need sched.h b) sched.h stops being dependency for significant number of files: on x86_64 allmodconfig touching sched.h results in recompile of 4083 files, after patch it's only 3744 (-8.3%).

2007-02-03[AGPGART] Allow drm-populated agp memory typesThomas Hellstrom
This patch allows drm to populate an agpgart structure with pages of its own. It's needed for the new drm memory manager which dynamically flips pages in and out of AGP. The patch modifies the generic functions as well as the intel agp driver. The intel drm driver is currently the only one supporting the new memory manager. Other agp drivers may need some minor fixing up once they have a corresponding memory manager enabled drm driver. AGP memory types >= AGP_USER_TYPES are not populated by the agpgart driver, but the drm is expected to do that, as well as taking care of cache- and tlb flushing when needed. It's not possible to request these types from user space using agpgart ioctls. The Intel driver also gets a new memory type for pages that can be bound cached to the intel GTT.

2006-12-22[AGPGART] Remove unnecessary flushes when inserting and removing pages.Thomas Hellstrom
This patch is to speed up flipping of pages in and out of the AGP aperture as needed by the new drm memory manager. A number of global cache flushes are removed as well as some PCI posting flushes. The following guidelines have been used: 1) Memory that is only mapped uncached and that has been subject to a global cache flush after the mapping was changed to uncached does not need any more cache flushes. Neither before binding to the aperture nor after unbinding. 2) Only do one PCI posting flush after a sequence of writes modifying page entries in the GATT.

2006-11-22[AGP] Allocate AGP pages with GFP_DMA32 by defaultLinus Torvalds
Not all graphic page remappers support physical addresses over the 4GB mark for remapping, so while some do (the AMD64 GART always did, and I just fixed the i965 to do so properly), we're safest off just forcing GFP_DMA32 allocations to make sure graphics pages get allocated in the low 32-bit address space by default. AGP sub-drivers that really care, and can do better, could just choose to implement their own allocator (or we could add another "64-bit safe" default allocator for their use), but quite frankly, you're not likely to care in practice. So for now, this trivial change means that we won't be allocating pages that we can't map correctly by mistake on x86-64.

2005-11-08[PATCH] AGP performance fixesAlan Hourihane
AGP allocation/deallocation is suffering major performance issues due to the nature of global_flush_tlb() being called on every change_page_attr() call. For small allocations this isn't really seen, but when you start allocating 50000 pages of AGP space, for say, texture memory, then things can take seconds to complete. In some cases the situation is doubled or even quadrupled in the time due to SMP, or a deallocation, then a new reallocation. I've had a case of upto 20 seconds wait time to deallocate and reallocate AGP space. This patch fixes the problem by making it the caller's responsibility to call global_flush_tlb(), and so removes it from every instance of mapping a page into AGP space until the time that all change_page_attr() changes are done.

2005-06-07[PATCH] Replace check_bridge_mode() with (bridge->mode & AGSTAT_MODE_3_0).David Mosberger
[AGPGART] Replace check_bridge_mode() with (bridge->mode & AGSTAT_MODE_3_0). As mentioned earlier, the current check_bridge_mode() code assumes that AGP bridges are PCI devices. This isn't always true. Definitely not for HP zx1 chipset and the same seems to be the case for SGI's AGP bridge. The patch below fixes the problem by picking up the AGP_MODE_3_0 bit from bridge->mode. I feel like I may be missing something, since I can't see any reason why check_bridge_mode() wasn't doing that in the first place. According to the AGP 3.0 specs, the AGP_MODE_3_0 bit is determined during the hardware reset and cannot be changed, so it seems to me it should be safe to pick it up from bridge->mode. With the patch applied, I can definitely use AGP acceleration both with AGP 2.0 and AGP 3.0 (one with an Nvidia card, the other with an ATI FireGL card). Unless someone spots a problem, please apply this patch so 3d acceleration can work on zx1 boxes again. This makes AGP work again on machines with an AGP bridge that isn't a PCI device.

2005-06-07[PATCH] AGP fix for Xen VMMKeir Fraser
When Linux is running on the Xen virtual machine monitor, physical addresses are virtualised and cannot be directly referenced by the AGP GART. This patch fixes the GART driver for Xen by adding a layer of abstraction between physical addresses and 'GART addresses'. Architecture-specific functions are also defined for allocating and freeing the GATT. Xen requires this to ensure that table really is contiguous from the point of view of the GART. These extra interface functions are defined as 'no-ops' for all existing architectures that use the GART driver.
