      arm64: dts: rockchip: update dynamic-power-coefficient for rk3399 · 45a995c0
      Caesar Wang authored
      
      
      This patch updates the dynamic-power-coefficient for big cluster on
      rk3399 SoCs.
      
      The dynamic power consumption of the CPU is proportional to the square of
      the Voltage (V) and the clock frequency (f). The coefficient is used to
      calculate the dynamic power as below -
      Pdyn = dynamic-power-coefficient * V^2 * f
      Where Voltage is in uV, frequency is in MHz.
      
      As the following is the tested data on rk3399's big cluster.
      frequency(MHz)  Voltage(V)  Current(mA) Dynamic-power-coefficient
      24              0.8         15
      48              0.8         23          ~417
      96              0.8         40          ~443
      216             0.8         82          ~438
      312             0.8         115         ~430
      408             0.8         150         ~455
      So the dynamic-power-coefficient average value is about 436.

      mm/hugetlb: add size parameter to huge_pte_offset() · 7868a208
      Punit Agrawal authored
      A poisoned or migrated hugepage is stored as a swap entry in the page
      tables.  On architectures that support hugepages consisting of
      contiguous page table entries (such as on arm64) this leads to ambiguity
      in determining the page table entry to return in huge_pte_offset() when
      a poisoned entry is encountered.
      
      Let's remove the ambiguity by adding a size parameter to convey
      additional information about the requested address.  Also fixup the
      definition/usage of huge_pte_offset() throughout the tree.

      Steve Capper authored
      We don't need to call huge_ptep_offset as our accessors are already
      supplied with the pte_t *.  This patch removes those spurious calls.

      arm64: hugetlb: refactor find_num_contig() · bb9dd3df
      Steve Capper authored
      Patch series "Support for contiguous pte hugepages", v4.
      
      This patchset updates the hugetlb code to fix issues arising from
      contiguous pte hugepages (such as on arm64).  Compared to v3, This
      version addresses a build failure on arm64 by including two cleanup
      patches.  Other than the arm64 cleanups, the rest are generic code
      changes.  The remaining arm64 support based on these patches will be
      posted separately.  The patches are based on v4.12-rc2.  Previous
      related postings can be found at [0], [1], [2], and [3].
      
      The patches fall into three categories -
      
      * Patch 1-2 - arm64 cleanups required to greatly simplify changing
        huge_pte_offset() prototype in Patch 5.
      
        Catalin, Will - are you happy for these patches to go via mm?
      
      * Patches 3-4 address issues with gup
      
      * Patches 5-8 relate to passing a size argument to hugepage helpers to
        disambiguate the size of the referred page. These changes are
        required to enable arch code to properly handle swap entries for
        contiguous pte hugepages.
      
        The changes to huge_pte_offset() (patch 5) touch multiple
        architectures but I've managed to minimise these changes for the
        other affected functions - huge_pte_clear() and set_huge_pte_at().
      
      These patches gate the enabling of contiguous hugepages support on arm64
      which has been requested for systems using !4k page granule.
      
      The ARM64 architecture supports two flavours of hugepages -
      
      * Block mappings at the pud/pmd level
      
        These are regular hugepages where a pmd or a pud page table entry
        points to a block of memory. Depending on the PAGE_SIZE in use the
        following size of block mappings are supported -
      
                PMD	PUD
                ---	---
        4K:      2M	 1G
        16K:    32M
        64K:   512M
      
        For certain applications/usecases such as HPC and large enterprise
        workloads, folks are using 64k page size but the minimum hugepage size
        of 512MB isn't very practical.
      
      To overcome this ...
      
      * Using the Contiguous bit
      
        The architecture provides a contiguous bit in the translation table
        entry which acts as a hint to the mmu to indicate that it is one of a
        contiguous set of entries that can be cached in a single TLB entry.
      
        We use the contiguous bit in Linux to increase the mapping size at the
        pmd and pte (last) level.
      
        The number of supported contiguous entries varies by page size and
        level of the page table.
      
        Using the contiguous bit allows additional hugepage sizes -
      
                 CONT PTE    PMD    CONT PMD    PUD
                 --------    ---    --------    ---
          4K:         64K     2M         32M     1G
          16K:         2M    32M          1G
          64K:         2M   512M         16G
      
        Of these, 64K with 4K and 2M with 64K pages have been explicitly
        requested by a few different users.
      
      Entries with the contiguous bit set are required to be modified all
      together - which makes things like memory poisoning and migration
      impossible to do correctly without knowing the size of hugepage being
      dealt with - the reason for adding size parameter to a few of the
      hugepage helpers in this series.
      
      This patch (of 8):
      
      As we regularly check for contiguous pte's in the huge accessors, remove
      this extra check from find_num_contig.

      mm/hugetlb: clean up ARCH_HAS_GIGANTIC_PAGE · e1073d1e
      Aneesh Kumar K.V authored
      This moves the #ifdef in C code to a Kconfig dependency.  Also we move
      the gigantic_page_supported() function to be arch specific.
      
      This allows architectures to conditionally enable runtime allocation of
      gigantic huge page.  Architectures like ppc64 supports different
      gigantic huge page size (16G and 1G) based on the translation mode
      selected.  This provides an opportunity for ppc64 to enable runtime
      allocation only w.r.t 1G hugepage.
      
      No functional change in this patch.
