mm/hugetlb: reduce arch dependent code around follow_huge_*
Currently we have many duplicates in definitions around
follow_huge_addr(), follow_huge_pmd(), and follow_huge_pud(), so this
patch tries to remove the m. The basic idea is to put the default
implementation for these functions in mm/hugetlb.c as weak symbols
(regardless of CONFIG_ARCH_WANT_GENERAL_HUGETL B), and to implement
arch-specific code only when the arch needs it.
For follow_huge_addr(), only powerpc and ia64 have their own
implementation, and in all other architectures this function just returns
ERR_PTR(-EINVAL). So this patch sets returning ERR_PTR(-EINVAL) as
default.
As for follow_huge_(pmd|pud)(), if (pmd|pud)_huge() is implemented to
always return 0 in your architecture (like in ia64 or sparc,) it's never
called (the callsite is optimized away) no matter how implemented it is.
So in such architectures, we don't need arch-specific implementation.
In some architecture (like mips, s390 and tile,) their current
arch-specific follow_huge_(pmd|pud)() are effectively identical with the
common code, so this patch lets these architecture use the common code.
One exception is metag, where pmd_huge() could return non-zero but it
expects follow_huge_pmd() to always return NULL. This means that we need
arch-specific implementation which returns NULL. This behavior looks
strange to me (because non-zero pmd_huge() implies that the architecture
supports PMD-based hugepage, so follow_huge_pmd() can/should return some
relevant value,) but that's beyond this cleanup patch, so let's keep it.
Justification of non-trivial changes:
- in s390, follow_huge_pmd() checks !MACHINE_HAS_HPAGE at first, and this
patch removes the check. This is OK because we can assume MACHINE_HAS_HPAGE
is true when follow_huge_pmd() can be called (note that pmd_huge() has
the same check and always returns 0 for !MACHINE_HAS_HPAGE.)
- in s390 and mips, we use HPAGE_MASK instead of PMD_MASK as done in common
code. This patch forces these archs use PMD_MASK, but it's OK because
they are identical in both archs.
In s390, both of HPAGE_SHIFT and PMD_SHIFT are 20.
In mips, HPAGE_SHIFT is defined as (PAGE_SHIFT + PAGE_SHIFT - 3) and
PMD_SHIFT is define as (PAGE_SHIFT + PAGE_SHIFT + PTE_ORDER - 3), but
PTE_ORDER is always 0, so these are identical.
