xen: fix scrub_page()

Impact: fix guest kernel crash with CONFIG_XEN_SCRUB_PAGES=y

Jens noticed that scrub_page() has a buggy unmap of the wrong
thing. (virtual address instead of page)

Linus pointed out that the whole scrub_page() code is an unnecessary
reimplementation of clear_highpage() to begin with.

Just use clear_highpage() rather than reimplementing it poorly.

commit 120a37470c2831fea49fdebaceb5a7039f700ce6 ("framebuffer compat_ioctl

This patch fixes the remaining deadlocks:

  - Extract the core logic of fb_ioctl() into a new function do_fb_ioctl(),
  - Change all callsites of fb_ioctl() where info->lock is already held to

16 years agohugetlbfs: handle pages higher order than MAX_ORDER
Andy Whitcroft [Thu, 6 Nov 2008 20:53:26 +0000 (12:53 -0800)]
hugetlbfs: handle pages higher order than MAX_ORDER

When working with hugepages, hugetlbfs assumes that those hugepages are
smaller than MAX_ORDER.  Specifically it assumes that the mem_map is
contigious and uses that to optimise access to the elements of the mem_map
that represent the hugepage.  Gigantic pages (such as 16GB pages on
powerpc) by definition are of greater order than MAX_ORDER (larger than
MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES in size).  This means that we can no longer make use of
the buddy alloctor guarentees for the contiguity of the mem_map, which
ensures that the mem_map is at least contigious for maximmally aligned
areas of MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES pages.

This patch adds new mem_map accessors and iterator helpers which handle
any discontiguity at MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES boundaries.  It then uses these to
implement gigantic page versions of copy_huge_page and clear_huge_page,
and to allow follow_hugetlb_page handle gigantic pages.
