When the vmalloc area gets fragmented, and because the firmware mapping area sits between where modules live and the vmalloc area, we can sometimes receive requests for enormous kernel TLB range flushes. When this happens the cpu just spins flushing billions of pages and this triggers the NMI watchdog and other problems. We took care of this on the TSB side by doing a linear scan of the table once we pass a certain threshold. Do something similar for the TLB flush, however we are limited by the TLB flush facilities provided by the different chip variants. First of all we use an (mostly arbitrary) cut-off of 256K which is about 32 pages. This can be tuned in the future. The huge range code path for each chip works as follows: 1) On spitfire we flush all non-locked TLB entries using diagnostic acceses. 2) On cheetah we use the "flush all" TLB flush. 3) On sun4v/hypervisor we do a TLB context flush on context 0, which unlike previous chips does not remove "permanent" or locked entries. We could probably do something better on spitfire, such as limiting the flush to kernel TLB entries or even doing range comparisons. However that probably isn't worth it since those chips are old and the TLB only had 64 entries.

Just like the non-cross-call TLB flush handlers, the cross-call ones need to avoid doing PC-relative branches outside of their code blocks. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

If the number of pages we are flushing is more than twice the number of entries in the TSB, just scan the TSB table for matches rather than probing each and every page in the range. Based upon a patch and report by James Clarke. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

When we copy code over to patch another piece of code, we can only use PC-relative branches that target code within that piece of code. Such PC-relative branches cannot be made to external symbols because the patch moves the location of the code and thus modifies the relative address of external symbols. Use an absolute jmpl to fix this problem. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

The fixup helper function mechanism for handling user copy fault handling is not %100 accurrate, and can never be made so. We are going to transition the code to return the running return return length, which is always kept track in one or more registers of each of these routines. In order to convert them one by one, we have to allow the existing behavior to continue functioning. Therefore make all the copy code that wants the fixup helper to be used return negative one. After all of the user copy routines have been converted, this logic and the fixup helpers themselves can be removed completely. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Individual scheduler domain should consist different hierarchy consisting of cores sharing similar property. Currently, no scheduler domain is defined separately for the cores that shares the last level cache. As a result, the scheduler fails to take advantage of cache locality while migrating tasks during load balancing. Here are the cpu masks currently present for sparc that are/can be used in scheduler domain construction. cpu_core_map : set based on the cores that shares l1 cache. core_core_sib_map : is set based on the socket id. The prior SPARC notion of socket was defined as highest level of shared cache. However, the MD record on T7 platforms now describes the CPUs that share the physical socket and this is no longer tied to shared cache. That's why a separate cpu mask needs to be created that truly represent highest level of shared cache for all platforms.
