Changes for v3: * Rebase.Blurb from v1: While working on mmap issues for 8.1, I noticed a lot of corner cases of host != guest page size that we implement poorly. This seems to be particularly visible on Apple M1 with 16k pages, more so than Power with 64k pages for some reason. Objective 1 is to deprecate and (essentially) disable the -p option. The effect of -p is apparently confusing, so much so that our own testsuite misuses it. One cannot really change the host page size, and pretending otherwise means that we don't treat the host memory system correctly, and stuff breaks. I have not yet done the same work for bsd-user. Objective 2 is to allow the guest page size to change to match the host. There are corner cases of host != guest page size will fail in odd ways. For case of host > guest page size, the issues could be solved with softmmu, allowing a non-linear mapping between host and guest addresses and also disconnecting host and guest page permissions. However, host < guest page has issues with SIGBUS which I believe to be totally unfixable. At minimum one would need to monitor changes to all files mapped in the address space, but I'm sure there is much more. But as always the best behaviour is obtained when the host and guest page sizes match -- there are no corner cases to contend with. There are a set of guests which can be configured to use multiple page sizes, and therefore software developed for those guests (usually) does not hard-code a particular page size. For those, we can allow the page size to vary and let the guest match the host. I have only changed aarch64, alpha and ppc guests so far, as those are both easy to test and, especially for the case of alpha's default 8k page size, prone to failure. r~ Richard Henderson (33): accel/tcg: Remove qemu_host_page_size from page_protect/page_unprotect linux-user: Adjust SVr4 NULL page mapping linux-user: Remove qemu_host_page_{size,mask} in probe_guest_base linux-user: Remove qemu_host_page_size from create_elf_tables linux-user/hppa: Simplify init_guest_commpage linux-user/nios2: Remove qemu_host_page_size from init_guest_commpage linux-user/arm: Remove qemu_host_page_size from init_guest_commpage linux-user: Remove qemu_host_page_{size,mask} from mmap.c linux-user: Remove REAL_HOST_PAGE_ALIGN from mmap.c linux-user: Remove HOST_PAGE_ALIGN from mmap.c migration: Remove qemu_host_page_size hw/tpm: Remove HOST_PAGE_ALIGN from tpm_ppi_init softmmu/physmem: Remove qemu_host_page_size softmmu/physmem: Remove HOST_PAGE_ALIGN linux-user: Remove qemu_host_page_size from main linux-user: Split out target_mmap__locked linux-user: Move some mmap checks outside the lock linux-user: Fix sub-host-page mmap linux-user: Split out mmap_end linux-user: Do early mmap placement only for reserved_va linux-user: Split out mmap_h_eq_g linux-user: Split out mmap_h_lt_g linux-user: Split out mmap_h_gt_g tests/tcg: Remove run-test-mmap-* tests/tcg: Extend file in linux-madvise.c *-user: Deprecate and disable -p pagesize cpu: Remove page_size_init accel/tcg: Disconnect TargetPageDataNode from page size linux-user: Allow TARGET_PAGE_BITS_VARY target/arm: Enable TARGET_PAGE_BITS_VARY for AArch64 user-only linux-user: Bound mmap_min_addr by host page size target/ppc: Enable TARGET_PAGE_BITS_VARY for user-only target/alpha: Enable TARGET_PAGE_BITS_VARY for user-only docs/about/deprecated.rst | 7 + docs/user/main.rst | 3 - bsd-user/qemu.h | 7 + include/exec/cpu-common.h | 7 - include/hw/core/cpu.h | 2 - target/alpha/cpu-param.h | 16 +- target/arm/cpu-param.h | 6 +- target/ppc/cpu-param.h | 9 +- accel/tcg/translate-all.c | 1 - accel/tcg/user-exec.c | 31 +- bsd-user/main.c | 21 +- cpu-target.c | 13 - hw/tpm/tpm_ppi.c | 3 +- linux-user/elfload.c | 67 +- linux-user/main.c | 33 +- linux-user/mmap.c | 714 +++++++++++++--------- migration/ram.c | 22 +- system/physmem.c | 17 +- system/vl.c | 1 - target/arm/cpu.c | 51 +- tests/tcg/multiarch/linux/linux-madvise.c | 2 + tests/tcg/alpha/Makefile.target | 3 - tests/tcg/arm/Makefile.target | 3 - tests/tcg/hppa/Makefile.target | 3 - tests/tcg/i386/Makefile.target | 3 - tests/tcg/m68k/Makefile.target | 3 - tests/tcg/multiarch/Makefile.target | 9 - tests/tcg/ppc/Makefile.target | 12 - tests/tcg/sh4/Makefile.target | 3 - tests/tcg/sparc64/Makefile.target | 6 - 30 files changed, 626 insertions(+), 452 deletions(-) delete mode 100644 tests/tcg/ppc/Makefile.target delete mode 100644 tests/tcg/sparc64/Makefile.target
