Nitin Gupta says: ==================== sparc64: Add 16GB hugepage support SPARC architecture supports 16G hugepages but the kernel did not support these. This patch series adds support for it and also cleanes up some page walk/alloc functions. Patch 1/3: Core changes needed to add 16G hugepage support: To map a single 16G hugepage, two PUD entries are used. Each PUD entry maps 8G portion of a 16G page. This page table encoding scheme is same as that used for hugepages at PMD level (8M, 256M and 2G pages) where each PMD entry points successively to 8M regions within a page. No page table entries below the PUD level are allocated for 16G hugepage since those are not required. TSB entries for a 16G page are created at every 4M boundary since the HUGE_TSB is used for these pages which is configured with page size of 4M. When walking page tables (on a TSB miss), bits [32:22] are transferred from vaddr to PUD to resolve addresses at 4M boundary. The resolved address mapping is then stored in HUGE_TSB. Patch 2/3: get_user_pages() etc. are used for direct IO. These functions were not aware of hugepages at the PUD level and would try to continue walking page tables beyond the PUD level. Since 16G hugepages have page tables allocated till PUD level only, these accesses would result in invalid access. This patch adds the case for PUD huge pages to these functions. Patch 3/3: Patch 1 added the case of PUD entry being huge in page table walk and alloc functions. This new case further increased nesting in these functions and made them harder to follow. This patch flattens these functions for better readability. Cc: sparclinux@vger.kernel.org Chagenlog v6 vs v5: - Move include of hvcalls.S after the trap table to avoid overflowing previous space (Anthony) Changelog v5 vs v4: - Checking at PUD level for hugepage entry during page table walk is patched out if 16GB hugepages are not being used. Changelog v4 vs v3: - Added cover letter (patch 0/4) for patch series. Changelog v3 vs v2: - Fixed email headers so the subject shows up correctly. Changelog v2 vs v1: - Remove redundant brgez,pn (Bob Picco) - Remove unncessary label rename from 700 to 701 (Rob Gardner) - Add patch description (Paul) - Add 16G case to get_user_pages() ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
