This was reworked some time ago to go through fixmaps instead, leaving
the range itself unused. As such, kill off the remaining references and
hand over the remaining space for fixmaps directly. This also makes it

about the special section.

At the moment the top of the fixmap space is calculated from P4SEG, which
places it at the end of the store queue space when that API is enabled.
Make sure we use P3_ADDR_MAX here instead to find the proper address

The problem is caused by the interaction of two features in the Linux
memory management code.
A processes address space is described by a struct mm_struct, and
every thread has a pointer to the mm it should run in. The exception
to this are kernel threads, which don't have an mm, and so borrow
the mm from the last thread which ran. The system is bootstrapped
by the initial kernel thread using init's mm (even though init hasn't
been created yet, its mm is the static init_mm).
The other feature is how the kernel handles the page table which
describes the portion of the address space which is only visible when
executing inside the kernel, and which is shared by all threads. On
the SH4 the only portion of the kernel's address space which described
using the page table is called P3, from 0xc0000000 to 0xdfffffff. This
portion of the address space is divided into three:
- mappings for dma_alloc_coherent()
- mappings for vmalloc() and ioremap()
- fixmap mappings, primarily used in copy_user_pages() to create
kernel mappings of user pages with the correct cache colour.
To optimise the TLB miss handler we don't want to add an additional
condition which checks whether the faulting address is in the user or
the kernel portion of the address space, and so all page tables have a
common portion which describes the kernel part of the address
space. As the SH4 uses a two level page table, only the kernel portion
of first level page table (the pgd entries) is duplicated. These all
point to the same second level entries (the pte's), and so no memory
is wasted.
The reference page table for the kernel is called the swapper_pg_dir,
and when a new page table is created for a new process the kernel
portion of the page table is copied from swapper_pg_dir. This works
fine when changes only occur in the second level of the kernel's page
table, or the first level entries are created before any new user
processes. However if a change occurs to the first level of the page
table, and there are existing processes which don't have this entry in
their page table, this new entry needs to be added. This is done on
demand, when the kernel accesses a P3 address which isn't mapped using
the current page table, the code in vmalloc_fault() copies the entry
from the reference page table (swapper_pg_dir) into the current
processes page table.
The bug which this patch addresses is that the code in vmalloc_fault()
was not copying addresses which fell in the dma_alloc_coherent()
portion of the address space, and it should have been copying any P3
address.
Why we hadn't seen this before, and what made this hard to reproduce,
is that normally the kernel will have called dma_alloc_coherent(), and
accessed the memory mapping created, before any user process
runs. Typically drivers such as USB or SATA will have created and used
mappings of this type during the kernel initialisation, when probing
for the attached devices, before init runs. Ethernet is slightly
different, as it normally only creates and accesses
dma_alloc_coherent() mappings when the network is brought up, but if
kernel level IP configuration is used this will also occur before any
user space process runs. So the first reproduction of this problem
which we saw was occurred when USB and SATA were removed from the
kernel, and then bring up Ethernet from user space using ifconfig.
I'd like to thank Joseph Bormolini who did the hard work reducing the
problem to this simple to reproduce criteria.
In your case the situation is slightly different, and turns out to
depends on the exact kernel configuration (which we had) and your
ramdisk contents (which we didn't - hence the need for some assumptions).
In this case the problem is a side effect of kernel level module
loading. Kernel subsystems sometimes trigger the load of kernel
modules directly, for example the crypto subsystem tries to load the
cryptomgr and MTD tries to load modules for Flash partitioning if
these are not built into the kernel. This is done by the kernel
creating a user process which runs insmod to try and load the
appropriate module.
In order for this to cause problems the system must be running with a
initrd or initramfs, which contains an insmod executable - if the
kernel can't find an insmod to run, no user process is created, and
the problem doesn't occur. If an insmod is found, a process is
created to run it, which will inherit the kernel portion of the
swapper_pg_dir first level page table. It doesn't matter whether the
inmod is successful or not, but when the the kernel scheduler context
switches back to the kernel initialisation thread, the insmod's mm is
'borrowed' by the kernel thread, as it doesn't have an address space
of its own. (Reference counting is used to ensure this mm is not
destroyed, even though the user process which caused its creation may no
longer exist.) If this address space doesn't have a first level page
table entry for the consistent mappings, and a driver tries to access
such a mapping, we are in the same situation as described above,
except this time in a kernel thread rather than a user thread
executing inside the kernel.

"Short summary for the whole series:
A few limitations have been identified in the current dma-mapping
design and its implementations for various architectures. There exist
more than one function for allocating and freeing the buffers:
currently these 3 are used dma_{alloc, free}_coherent,
dma_{alloc,free}_writecombine, dma_{alloc,free}_noncoherent.
For most of the systems these calls are almost equivalent and can be
interchanged. For others, especially the truly non-coherent ones
(like ARM), the difference can be easily noticed in overall driver
performance. Sadly not all architectures provide implementations for
all of them, so the drivers might need to be adapted and cannot be
easily shared between different architectures. The provided patches
unify all these functions and hide the differences under the already
existing dma attributes concept. The thread with more references is
available here:
http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-sh/msg09777.html
These patches are also a prerequisite for unifying DMA-mapping
implementation on ARM architecture with the common one provided by
dma_map_ops structure and extending it with IOMMU support. More
information is available in the following thread:
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.cross-arch/12819
More works on dma-mapping framework are planned, especially in the
area of buffer sharing and managing the shared mappings (together with
the recently introduced dma_buf interface: commit d15bd7ee44
"dma-buf: Introduce dma buffer sharing mechanism").
The patches in the current set introduce a new alloc/free methods
(with support for memory attributes) in dma_map_ops structure, which
will later replace dma_alloc_coherent and dma_alloc_writecombine
functions."
People finally started piping up with support for merging this, so I'm
merging it as the last of the pending stuff from the merge window.
Looks like pohmelfs is going to wait for 3.5 and more external support
for merging.

The cache functions lock out interrupts for long periods; this patch
reduces the impact when operating on large address ranges. In such
cases it will:
- Invalidate the entire cache rather than individual addresses.
- Do nothing when flushing the operand cache in write-through mode.
- When flushing the operand cache in write-back mdoe, index the
search for matching addresses on the cache entires instead of the
addresses to flush
Note: sh2a__flush_purge_region was only invalidating the operand
cache, this adds flush.

The nmi parameter indicated if we could do wakeups from the current

resulting interrupt do the wakeup.
For the various event classes:
- hardware: nmi=0; PMI is in fact an NMI or we run irq_work_run from
the PMI-tail (ARM etc.)
- tracepoint: nmi=0; since tracepoint could be from NMI context.
- software: nmi=[0,1]; some, like the schedule thing cannot
perform wakeups, and hence need 0.
As one can see, there is very little nmi=1 usage, and the down-side of
not using it is that on some platforms some software events can have a
jiffy delay in wakeup (when arch_irq_work_raise isn't implemented).
The up-side however is that we can remove the nmi parameter and save a
bunch of conditionals in fast paths.

This resolves a problem seen when using the Android dynamic linker.
Sometimes the dynamic linker would seg-fault at start up and this
was eventually traced to the handling of a COW fault for a page which
was being modified by the linker. If there was no cache aliasing between
the kernel and the user page, the page was not flushed, leaving the
newly copied data in the D-cache. However when executing instructions
from that page, the I-cache is filled directly from external memory,
rather than the D-cache, and causing garbage to be executed.

This follows the ARM change c01778001a
("ARM: 6379/1: Assume new page cache pages have dirty D-cache") for the
same rationale:
There are places in Linux where writes to newly allocated page
cache pages happen without a subsequent call to flush_dcache_page()
(several PIO drivers including USB HCD). This patch changes the
meaning of PG_arch_1 to be PG_dcache_clean and always flush the
D-cache for a newly mapped page in update_mmu_cache().
This addresses issues seen with executing binaries from MMC, in
addition to some of the other HCDs that don't explicitly do cache
management for their pipe-in buffers.

SH-2/2A configs regardless of the fact that they are really 32BIT sans
MMU or PMB. This does a bit of tidying to get nommu properly selecting
32BIT as it was before.
