ARC: mm: fix leakage of memory allocated for PTE
commit 4fd9df10cb7a9289fbd22d669f9f98164d95a1ce upstream.
Since commit d9820ff ("ARC: mm: switch pgtable_t back to struct page *")
a memory leakage
ARC: mm: fix leakage of memory allocated for PTE
commit 4fd9df10cb7a9289fbd22d669f9f98164d95a1ce upstream.
Since commit d9820ff ("ARC: mm: switch pgtable_t back to struct page *")
a memory leakage problem occurs. Memory allocated for page table entries
not released during process termination. This issue can be reproduced by
a small program that allocates a large amount of memory. After several
runs, you'll see that the amount of free memory has reduced and will
continue to reduce after each run. All ARC CPUs are effected by this
issue. The issue was introduced since the kernel stable release v5.15-rc1.
As described in commit d9820ff after switch pgtable_t back to struct
page *, a pointer to "struct page" and appropriate functions are used to
allocate and free a memory page for PTEs, but the pmd_pgtable macro hasn't
changed and returns the direct virtual address from the PMD (PGD) entry.
Than this address used as a parameter in the __pte_free() and as a result
this function couldn't release memory page allocated for PTEs.
Fix this issue by changing the pmd_pgtable macro and returning pointer to
struct page.

ARC: mm: fix leakage of memory allocated for PTE
commit 4fd9df10cb7a9289fbd22d669f9f98164d95a1ce upstream.
Since commit d9820ff ("ARC: mm: switch pgtable_t back to struct page *")
a memory leakage
ARC: mm: fix leakage of memory allocated for PTE
commit 4fd9df10cb7a9289fbd22d669f9f98164d95a1ce upstream.
Since commit d9820ff ("ARC: mm: switch pgtable_t back to struct page *")
a memory leakage problem occurs. Memory allocated for page table entries
not released during process termination. This issue can be reproduced by
a small program that allocates a large amount of memory. After several
runs, you'll see that the amount of free memory has reduced and will
continue to reduce after each run. All ARC CPUs are effected by this
issue. The issue was introduced since the kernel stable release v5.15-rc1.
As described in commit d9820ff after switch pgtable_t back to struct
page *, a pointer to "struct page" and appropriate functions are used to
allocate and free a memory page for PTEs, but the pmd_pgtable macro hasn't
changed and returns the direct virtual address from the PMD (PGD) entry.
Than this address used as a parameter in the __pte_free() and as a result
this function couldn't release memory page allocated for PTEs.
Fix this issue by changing the pmd_pgtable macro and returning pointer to
struct page.

ARC: mm: support 3 levels of page tables
ARCv2 MMU is software walked and Linux implements 2 levels of paging: pgd/pte.
Forthcoming hw will have multiple levels, so this change preps mm code
for same. It is also fun to try multi levels even on soft-walked code to
ensure generic mm code is robust to handle.
overview
________
2 levels {pgd, pte} : pmd is folded but pmd_* macros are valid and operate on pgd
3 levels {pgd, pmd, pte}:
- pud is folded and pud_* macros point to pgd
- pmd_* macros operate on actual pmd
code changes
____________
1. #include <asm-generic/pgtable-nopud.h>
2. Define CONFIG_PGTABLE_LEVELS 3
3a. Define PMD_SHIFT, PMD_SIZE, PMD_MASK, pmd_t
3b. Define pmd_val() which actually deals with pmd
(pmd_offset(), pmd_index() are provided by generic code)
3c. pmd_alloc_one()/pmd_free() also provided by generic code
(pmd_populate/pmd_free already exist)
4. Define pud_none(), pud_bad() macros based on generic pud_val() which
internally pertains to pgd now.
4b. define pud_populate() to just setup pgd
