2011-07-25MIPS: Move FIXADDR_TOP into spaces.hKevin Cernekee
Memory maps and addressing quirks are normally defined in <spaces.h>. There are already three targets that need to override FIXADDR_TOP, and others exist. This will be a cleaner approach than adding lots of ifdefs in fixmap.h .

2009-11-02MIPS: Fix machine check exception in kmap_coherent()Kevin Cernekee
On an SMP system with cache aliases, the following sequence of events may happen: 1) copy_user_highpage() runs on CPU0, invoking kmap_coherent() to create a temporary mapping in the fixmap region 2) copy_page() starts on CPU0 3) CPU1 sends CPU0 an IPI asking CPU0 to run local_r4k_flush_cache_page() 4) CPU0 takes the interrupt, interrupting copy_page() 5) local_r4k_flush_cache_page() on CPU0 calls kmap_coherent() again 6) The second invocation of kmap_coherent() on CPU0 tries to use the same fixmap virtual address that was being used by copy_user_highpage() 7) CPU0 throws a machine check exception for the TLB address conflict Fixed by creating an extra set of fixmap entries for use in interrupt handlers. This prevents fixmap VA conflicts between copy_user_highpage() running in user context, and local_r4k_flush_cache_page() invoked from an SMP IPI.

Commit 351336929ccf222ae38ff0cb7a8dd5fd5c6236a0 (kernel.org) rsp. b3594a089f1c17ff919f8f78505c3f20e1f6f8ce (linux-mips.org): > From: Chris Dearman <chris@mips.com> > Date: Wed, 19 Sep 2007 00:58:24 +0100 > Subject: [PATCH] [MIPS] Allow setting of the cache attribute at run time. > > Slightly tacky, but there is a precedent in the sparc archirecture code. introduces the variable _page_cachable_default, which defaults to zero and. is used to create the prototype PTE for __kmap_atomic in arch/mips/mm/init.c:kmap_init before initialization in arch/mips/mm/c-r4k.c:coherency_setup, so the default value of 0 will be used as the CCA of kmap atomic pages which on many processors is not a defined CCA value and may result in writes to kmap_atomic pages getting corrupted.
