lockref: implement lockless reference count updates using cmpxchg() Instead of taking the spinlock, the lockless versions atomically check that the lock is not taken, and do the reference count update using a cmpxchg() loop. This is semantically identical to doing the reference count update protected by the lock, but avoids the "wait for lock" contention that you get when accesses to the reference count are contended. Note that a "lockref" is absolutely _not_ equivalent to an atomic_t. Even when the lockref reference counts are updated atomically with cmpxchg, the fact that they also verify the state of the spinlock means that the lockless updates can never happen while somebody else holds the spinlock. So while "lockref_put_or_lock()" looks a lot like just another name for "atomic_dec_and_lock()", and both optimize to lockless updates, they are fundamentally different: the decrement done by atomic_dec_and_lock() is truly independent of any lock (as long as it doesn't decrement to zero), so a locked region can still see the count change. The lockref structure, in contrast, really is a *locked* reference count. If you hold the spinlock, the reference count will be stable and you can modify the reference count without using atomics, because even the lockless updates will see and respect the state of the lock. In order to enable the cmpxchg lockless code, the architecture needs to do three things: (1) Make sure that the "arch_spinlock_t" and an "unsigned int" can fit in an aligned u64, and have a "cmpxchg()" implementation that works on such a u64 data type. (2) define a helper function to test for a spinlock being unlocked ("arch_spin_value_unlocked()") (3) select the "ARCH_USE_CMPXCHG_LOCKREF" config variable in its Kconfig file. This enables it for x86-64 (but not 32-bit, we'd need to make sure cmpxchg() turns into the proper cmpxchg8b in order to enable it for 32-bit mode).

With that support, the I/O ranges configured for PCI/PCIe hosts on some architectures can be mapped to logical PIO and converted easily between CPU address and the corresponding logical PIO. Based on this, PCI I/O port space can be accessed via in/out accessors that use memory read/write. But on some platforms, there are bus hosts that access I/O port space with host-local I/O port addresses rather than memory addresses. Add a more generic I/O mapping method to support those devices. With this patch, both the CPU addresses and the host-local port can be mapped into the logical PIO space with different logical/fake PIOs. After this, all the I/O accesses to either PCI MMIO devices or host-local I/O peripherals can be unified into the existing I/O accessors defined in asm-generic/io.h and be redirected to the right device-specific hooks based on the input logical PIO.

lib: Add register read/write tracing support Generic MMIO read/write i.e., __raw_{read,write}{b,l,w,q} accessors are typically used to read/write from/to memory mapped registers and can cause hangs or some undefined behaviour in following few cases, * If the access to the register space is unclocked, for example: if there is an access to multimedia(MM) block registers without MM clocks. * If the register space is protected and not set to be accessible from non-secure world, for example: only EL3 (EL: Exception level) access is allowed and any EL2/EL1 access is forbidden. * If xPU(memory/register protection units) is controlling access to certain memory/register space for specific clients. and more... Such cases usually results in instant reboot/SErrors/NOC or interconnect hangs and tracing these register accesses can be very helpful to debug such issues during initial development stages and also in later stages. So use ftrace trace events to log such MMIO register accesses which provides rich feature set such as early enablement of trace events, filtering capability, dumping ftrace logs on console and many more.

lib: add crc64 calculation routines Patch series "add crc64 calculation as kernel library", v5. This patchset adds basic implementation of crc64 calculation as a Linux kernel library. Since bcache already does crc64 by itself, this patchset also modifies bcache code to use the new crc64 library routine. Currently bcache is the only user of crc64 calculation, another potential user is bcachefs which is on the way to be in mainline kernel. Therefore it makes sense to make crc64 calculation to be a public library. bcache uses crc64 as storage checksum, if a change of crc lib routines results an inconsistent result, the unmatched checksum may make bcache 'think' the on-disk is corrupted, such a change should be avoided or detected as early as possible. Therefore a patch is being prepared which adds a crc test framework, to check consistency of different calculations. This patch (of 2): Add the re-write crc64 calculation routines for Linux kernel. The CRC64 polynomical arithmetic follows ECMA-182 specification, inspired by CRC paper of Dr. Ross N. Williams (see http://www.ross.net/crc/download/crc_v3.txt) and other public domain implementations. All the changes work in this way, - When Linux kernel is built, host program lib/gen_crc64table.c will be compiled to lib/gen_crc64table and executed. - The output of gen_crc64table execution is an array called as lookup table (a.k.a POLY 0x42f0e1eba9ea369) which contain 256 64-bit long numbers, this table is dumped into header file lib/crc64table.h. - Then the header file is included by lib/crc64.c for normal 64bit crc calculation. - Function declaration of the crc64 calculation routines is placed in include/linux/crc64.h Currently bcache is the only user of crc64_be(), another potential user is bcachefs which is on the way to be in mainline kernel. Therefore it makes sense to move crc64 calculation into lib/crc64.c as public code.

lib: Add xxhash module Adds xxhash kernel module with xxh32 and xxh64 hashes. xxhash is an extremely fast non-cryptographic hash algorithm for checksumming. The zstd compression and decompression modules added in the next patch require xxhash. I extracted it out from zstd since it is useful on its own. I copied the code from the upstream XXHash source repository and translated it into kernel style. I ran benchmarks and tests in the kernel and tests in userland. I benchmarked xxhash as a special character device. I ran in four modes, no-op, xxh32, xxh64, and crc32. The no-op mode simply copies the data to kernel space and ignores it. The xxh32, xxh64, and crc32 modes compute hashes on the copied data. I also ran it with four different buffer sizes. The benchmark file is located in the upstream zstd source repository under `contrib/linux-kernel/xxhash_test.c` [1]. I ran the benchmarks on a Ubuntu 14.04 VM with 2 cores and 4 GiB of RAM. The VM is running on a MacBook Pro with a 3.1 GHz Intel Core i7 processor, 16 GB of RAM, and a SSD. I benchmarked using the file `filesystem.squashfs` from `ubuntu-16.10-desktop-amd64.iso`, which is 1,536,217,088 B large. Run the following commands for the benchmark: modprobe xxhash_test mknod xxhash_test c 245 0 time cp filesystem.squashfs xxhash_test The time is reported by the time of the userland `cp`. The GB/s is computed with 1,536,217,008 B / time(buffer size, hash) which includes the time to copy from userland. The Normalized GB/s is computed with 1,536,217,088 B / (time(buffer size, hash) - time(buffer size, none)). | Buffer Size (B) | Hash | Time (s) | GB/s | Adjusted GB/s | |-----------------|-------|----------|------|---------------| | 1024 | none | 0.408 | 3.77 | - | | 1024 | xxh32 | 0.649 | 2.37 | 6.37 | | 1024 | xxh64 | 0.542 | 2.83 | 11.46 | | 1024 | crc32 | 1.290 | 1.19 | 1.74 | | 4096 | none | 0.380 | 4.04 | - | | 4096 | xxh32 | 0.645 | 2.38 | 5.79 | | 4096 | xxh64 | 0.500 | 3.07 | 12.80 | | 4096 | crc32 | 1.168 | 1.32 | 1.95 | | 8192 | none | 0.351 | 4.38 | - | | 8192 | xxh32 | 0.614 | 2.50 | 5.84 | | 8192 | xxh64 | 0.464 | 3.31 | 13.60 | | 8192 | crc32 | 1.163 | 1.32 | 1.89 | | 16384 | none | 0.346 | 4.43 | - | | 16384 | xxh32 | 0.590 | 2.60 | 6.30 | | 16384 | xxh64 | 0.466 | 3.30 | 12.80 | | 16384 | crc32 | 1.183 | 1.30 | 1.84 | Tested in userland using the test-suite in the zstd repo under `contrib/linux-kernel/test/XXHashUserlandTest.cpp` [2] by mocking the kernel functions.

lib/zlib: add s390 hardware support for kernel zlib_deflate Patch series "S390 hardware support for kernel zlib", v3. With IBM z15 mainframe the new DFLTCC instruction is available. It implements deflate algorithm in hardware (Nest Acceleration Unit - NXU) with estimated compression and decompression performance orders of magnitude faster than the current zlib. This patchset adds s390 hardware compression support to kernel zlib. The code is based on the userspace zlib implementation: https://github.com/madler/zlib/pull/410 The coding style is also preserved for future maintainability. There is only limited set of userspace zlib functions represented in kernel. Apart from that, all the memory allocation should be performed in advance. Thus, the workarea structures are extended with the parameter lists required for the DEFLATE CONVENTION CALL instruction. Since kernel zlib itself does not support gzip headers, only Adler-32 checksum is processed (also can be produced by DFLTCC facility). Like it was implemented for userspace, kernel zlib will compress in hardware on level 1, and in software on all other levels. Decompression will always happen in hardware (when enabled). Two DFLTCC compression calls produce the same results only when they both are made on machines of the same generation, and when the respective buffers have the same offset relative to the start of the page. Therefore care should be taken when using hardware compression when reproducible results are desired. However it does always produce the standard conform output which can be inflated anyway. The new kernel command line parameter 'dfltcc' is introduced to configure s390 zlib hardware support: Format: { on | off | def_only | inf_only | always } on: s390 zlib hardware support for compression on level 1 and decompression (default) off: No s390 zlib hardware support def_only: s390 zlib hardware support for deflate only (compression on level 1) inf_only: s390 zlib hardware support for inflate only (decompression) always: Same as 'on' but ignores the selected compression level always using hardware support (used for debugging) The main purpose of the integration of the NXU support into the kernel zlib is the use of hardware deflate in btrfs filesystem with on-the-fly compression enabled. Apart from that, hardware support can also be used during boot for decompressing the kernel or the ramdisk image With the patch for btrfs expanding zlib buffer from 1 to 4 pages (patch 6) the following performance results have been achieved using the ramdisk with btrfs. These are relative numbers based on throughput rate and compression ratio for zlib level 1: Input data Deflate rate Inflate rate Compression ratio NXU/Software NXU/Software NXU/Software stream of zeroes 1.46 1.02 1.00 random ASCII data 10.44 3.00 0.96 ASCII text (dickens) 6,21 3.33 0.94 binary data (vmlinux) 8,37 3.90 1.02 This means that s390 hardware deflate can provide up to 10 times faster compression (on level 1) and up to 4 times faster decompression (refers to all compression levels) for btrfs zlib. Disclaimer: Performance results are based on IBM internal tests using DD command-line utility on btrfs on a Fedora 30 based internal driver in native LPAR on a z15 system. Results may vary based on individual workload, configuration and software levels. This patch (of 9): Create zlib_dfltcc library with the s390 DEFLATE CONVERSION CALL implementation and related compression functions. Update zlib_deflate functions with the hooks for s390 hardware support and adjust workspace structures with extra parameter lists required for hardware deflate.

lib: Add zstd modules Add zstd compression and decompression kernel modules. zstd offers a wide varity of compression speed and quality trade-offs. It can compress at speeds approaching lz4, and quality approaching lzma. zstd decompressions at speeds more than twice as fast as zlib, and decompression speed remains roughly the same across all compression levels. The code was ported from the upstream zstd source repository. The `linux/zstd.h` header was modified to match linux kernel style. The cross-platform and allocation code was stripped out. Instead zstd requires the caller to pass a preallocated workspace. The source files were clang-formatted [1] to match the Linux Kernel style as much as possible. Otherwise, the code was unmodified. We would like to avoid as much further manual modification to the source code as possible, so it will be easier to keep the kernel zstd up to date. I benchmarked zstd compression as a special character device. I ran zstd and zlib compression at several levels, as well as performing no compression, which measure the time spent copying the data to kernel space. Data is passed to the compresser 4096 B at a time. The benchmark file is located in the upstream zstd source repository under `contrib/linux-kernel/zstd_compress_test.c` [2]. I ran the benchmarks on a Ubuntu 14.04 VM with 2 cores and 4 GiB of RAM. The VM is running on a MacBook Pro with a 3.1 GHz Intel Core i7 processor, 16 GB of RAM, and a SSD. I benchmarked using `silesia.tar` [3], which is 211,988,480 B large. Run the following commands for the benchmark: sudo modprobe zstd_compress_test sudo mknod zstd_compress_test c 245 0 sudo cp silesia.tar zstd_compress_test The time is reported by the time of the userland `cp`.

lib: Add zstd modules Add zstd compression and decompression kernel modules. zstd offers a wide varity of compression speed and quality trade-offs. It can compress at speeds approaching lz4, and quality approaching lzma. zstd decompressions at speeds more than twice as fast as zlib, and decompression speed remains roughly the same across all compression levels. The code was ported from the upstream zstd source repository. The `linux/zstd.h` header was modified to match linux kernel style. The cross-platform and allocation code was stripped out. Instead zstd requires the caller to pass a preallocated workspace. The source files were clang-formatted [1] to match the Linux Kernel style as much as possible. Otherwise, the code was unmodified. We would like to avoid as much further manual modification to the source code as possible, so it will be easier to keep the kernel zstd up to date. I benchmarked zstd compression as a special character device. I ran zstd and zlib compression at several levels, as well as performing no compression, which measure the time spent copying the data to kernel space. Data is passed to the compresser 4096 B at a time. The benchmark file is located in the upstream zstd source repository under `contrib/linux-kernel/zstd_compress_test.c` [2]. I ran the benchmarks on a Ubuntu 14.04 VM with 2 cores and 4 GiB of RAM. The VM is running on a MacBook Pro with a 3.1 GHz Intel Core i7 processor, 16 GB of RAM, and a SSD. I benchmarked using `silesia.tar` [3], which is 211,988,480 B large. Run the following commands for the benchmark: sudo modprobe zstd_compress_test sudo mknod zstd_compress_test c 245 0 sudo cp silesia.tar zstd_compress_test The time is reported by the time of the userland `cp`.

[PATCH] ia64 uncached alloc This patch contains the ia64 uncached page allocator and the generic allocator (genalloc). The uncached allocator was formerly part of the SN2 mspec driver but there are several other users of it so it has been split off from the driver. The generic allocator can be used by device driver to manage special memory etc. The generic allocator is based on the allocator from the sym53c8xx_2 driver. Various users on ia64 needs uncached memory. The SGI SN architecture requires it for inter-partition communication between partitions within a large NUMA cluster. The specific user for this is the XPC code. Another application is large MPI style applications which use it for synchronization, on SN this can be done using special 'fetchop' operations but it also benefits non SN hardware which may use regular uncached memory for this purpose. Performance of doing this through uncached vs cached memory is pretty substantial. This is handled by the mspec driver which I will push out in a seperate patch. Rather than creating a specific allocator for just uncached memory I came up with genalloc which is a generic purpose allocator that can be used by device drivers and other subsystems as they please. For instance to handle onboard device memory. It was derived from the sym53c7xx_2 driver's allocator which is also an example of a potential user (I am refraining from modifying sym2 right now as it seems to have been under fairly heavy development recently). On ia64 memory has various properties within a granule, ie. it isn't safe to access memory as uncached within the same granule as currently has memory accessed in cached mode. The regular system therefore doesn't utilize memory in the lower granules which is mixed in with device PAL code etc. The uncached driver walks the EFI memmap and pulls out the spill uncached pages and sticks them into the uncached pool. Only after these chunks have been utilized, will it start converting regular cached memory into uncached memory. Hence the reason for the EFI related code additions.

lib: add shared BCH ECC library This is a new software BCH encoding/decoding library, similar to the shared Reed-Solomon library. Binary BCH (Bose-Chaudhuri-Hocquenghem) codes are widely used to correct errors in NAND flash devices requiring more than 1-bit ecc correction; they are generally better suited for NAND flash than RS codes because NAND bit errors do not occur in bursts. Latest SLC NAND devices typically require at least 4-bit ecc protection per 512 bytes block. This library provides software encoding/decoding, but may also be used with ASIC/SoC hardware BCH engines to perform error correction. It is being currently used for this purpose on an OMAP3630 board (4bit/8bit HW BCH). It has also been used to decode raw dumps of NAND devices with on-die BCH ecc engines (e.g. Micron 4bit ecc SLC devices). Latest NAND devices (including SLC) can exhibit high error rates (typically a dozen or more bitflips per hour during stress tests); in order to minimize the performance impact of error correction, this library implements recently developed algorithms for fast polynomial root finding (see bch.c header for details) instead of the traditional exhaustive Chien root search; a few performance figures are provided below: Platform: arm926ejs @ 468 MHz, 32 KiB icache, 16 KiB dcache BCH ecc : 4-bit per 512 bytes Encoding average throughput: 250 Mbits/s Error correction time (compared with Chien search): average worst average (Chien) worst (Chien) ---------------------------------------------------------- 1 bit 8.5 µs 11 µs 200 µs 383 µs 2 bit 9.7 µs 12.5 µs 477 µs 728 µs 3 bit 18.1 µs 20.6 µs 758 µs 1010 µs 4 bit 19.5 µs 23 µs 1028 µs 1280 µs In the above figures, "worst" is meant in terms of error pattern, not in terms of cache miss / page faults effects (not taken into account here). The library has been extensively tested on the following platforms: x86, x86_64, arm926ejs, omap3630, qemu-ppc64, qemu-mips.

This library provides software encoding/decoding, but may also be used with ASIC/SoC hardware BCH engines to perform error correction. It is being currently used for this purpose on an OMAP3630 board (4bit/8bit HW BCH). It has also been used to decode raw dumps of NAND devices with on-die BCH ecc engines (e.g. Micron 4bit ecc SLC devices). Latest NAND devices (including SLC) can exhibit high error rates (typically a dozen or more bitflips per hour during stress tests); in order to minimize the performance impact of error correction, this library implements recently developed algorithms for fast polynomial root finding (see bch.c header for details) instead of the traditional exhaustive Chien root search; a few performance figures are provided below: Platform: arm926ejs @ 468 MHz, 32 KiB icache, 16 KiB dcache BCH ecc : 4-bit per 512 bytes Encoding average throughput: 250 Mbits/s Error correction time (compared with Chien search): average worst average (Chien) worst (Chien) ---------------------------------------------------------- 1 bit 8.5 µs 11 µs 200 µs 383 µs 2 bit 9.7 µs 12.5 µs 477 µs 728 µs 3 bit 18.1 µs 20.6 µs 758 µs 1010 µs 4 bit 19.5 µs 23 µs 1028 µs 1280 µs In the above figures, "worst" is meant in terms of error pattern, not in terms of cache miss / page faults effects (not taken into account here). The library has been extensively tested on the following platforms: x86, x86_64, arm926ejs, omap3630, qemu-ppc64, qemu-mips.

Add a generic associative array implementation. Add a generic associative array implementation that can be used as the container for keyrings, thereby massively increasing the capacity available whilst also speeding up searching in keyrings that contain a lot of keys. This may also be useful in FS-Cache for tracking cookies. Documentation is added into Documentation/associative_array.txt Some of the properties of the implementation are: (1) Objects are opaque pointers. The implementation does not care where they point (if anywhere) or what they point to (if anything). [!] NOTE: Pointers to objects _must_ be zero in the two least significant bits. (2) Objects do not need to contain linkage blocks for use by the array. This permits an object to be located in multiple arrays simultaneously. Rather, the array is made up of metadata blocks that point to objects. (3) Objects are labelled as being one of two types (the type is a bool value). This information is stored in the array, but has no consequence to the array itself or its algorithms. (4) Objects require index keys to locate them within the array. (5) Index keys must be unique. Inserting an object with the same key as one already in the array will replace the old object. (6) Index keys can be of any length and can be of different lengths. (7) Index keys should encode the length early on, before any variation due to length is seen. (8) Index keys can include a hash to scatter objects throughout the array. (9) The array can iterated over. The objects will not necessarily come out in key order. (10) The array can be iterated whilst it is being modified, provided the RCU readlock is being held by the iterator. Note, however, under these circumstances, some objects may be seen more than once. If this is a problem, the iterator should lock against modification. Objects will not be missed, however, unless deleted. (11) Objects in the array can be looked up by means of their index key. (12) Objects can be looked up whilst the array is being modified, provided the RCU readlock is being held by the thread doing the look up. The implementation uses a tree of 16-pointer nodes internally that are indexed on each level by nibbles from the index key. To improve memory efficiency, shortcuts can be emplaced to skip over what would otherwise be a series of single-occupancy nodes. Further, nodes pack leaf object pointers into spare space in the node rather than making an extra branch until as such time an object needs to be added to a full node.

dql: Dynamic queue limits Implementation of dynamic queue limits (dql). This is a libary which allows a queue limit to be dynamically managed. The goal of dql is to set the queue limit, number of objects to the queue, to be minimized without allowing the queue to be starved. dql would be used with a queue which has these properties: 1) Objects are queued up to some limit which can be expressed as a count of objects. 2) Periodically a completion process executes which retires consumed objects. 3) Starvation occurs when limit has been reached, all queued data has actually been consumed but completion processing has not yet run, so queuing new data is blocked. 4) Minimizing the amount of queued data is desirable. A canonical example of such a queue would be a NIC HW transmit queue. The queue limit is dynamic, it will increase or decrease over time depending on the workload. The queue limit is recalculated each time completion processing is done. Increases occur when the queue is starved and can exponentially increase over successive intervals. Decreases occur when more data is being maintained in the queue than needed to prevent starvation. The number of extra objects, or "slack", is measured over successive intervals, and to avoid hysteresis the limit is only reduced by the miminum slack seen over a configurable time period. dql API provides routines to manage the queue: - dql_init is called to intialize the dql structure - dql_reset is called to reset dynamic values - dql_queued called when objects are being enqueued - dql_avail returns availability in the queue - dql_completed is called when objects have be consumed in the queue Configuration consists of: - max_limit, maximum limit - min_limit, minimum limit - slack_hold_time, time to measure instances of slack before reducing queue limit Signed-off-by: Tom Herbert <therbert@google.com> Acked-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

memregion: Add cpu_cache_invalidate_memregion() interface With CXL security features, and CXL dynamic provisioning, global CPU cache flushing nvdimm requirements are no longer specific to that subsystem, even beyond the scope of security_ops. CXL will need such semantics for features not necessarily limited to persistent memory. The functionality this is enabling is to be able to instantaneously secure erase potentially terabytes of memory at once and the kernel needs to be sure that none of the data from before the erase is still present in the cache. It is also used when unlocking a memory device where speculative reads and firmware accesses could have cached poison from before the device was unlocked. Lastly this facility is used when mapping new devices, or new capacity into an established physical address range. I.e. when the driver switches DeviceA mapping AddressX to DeviceB mapping AddressX then any cached data from DeviceA:AddressX needs to be invalidated. This capability is typically only used once per-boot (for unlock), or once per bare metal provisioning event (secure erase), like when handing off the system to another tenant or decommissioning a device. It may also be used for dynamic CXL region provisioning. Users must first call cpu_cache_has_invalidate_memregion() to know whether this functionality is available on the architecture. On x86 this respects the constraints of when wbinvd() is tolerable. It is already the case that wbinvd() is problematic to allow in VMs due its global performance impact and KVM, for example, has been known to just trap and ignore the call. With confidential computing guest execution of wbinvd() may even trigger an exception. Given guests should not be messing with the bare metal address map via CXL configuration changes cpu_cache_has_invalidate_memregion() returns false in VMs. While this global cache invalidation facility, is exported to modules, since NVDIMM and CXL support can be built as a module, it is not for general use. The intent is that this facility is not available outside of specific "device-memory" use cases. To make that expectation as clear as possible the API is scoped to a new "DEVMEM" module namespace that only the NVDIMM and CXL subsystems are expected to import.

mm/memremap_pages: Introduce memremap_compat_align() The "sub-section memory hotplug" facility allows memremap_pages() users like libnvdimm to compensate for hardware platforms like x86 that have a section size larger than their hardware memory mapping granularity. The compensation that sub-section support affords is being tolerant of physical memory resources shifting by units smaller (64MiB on x86) than the memory-hotplug section size (128 MiB). Where the platform physical-memory mapping granularity is limited by the number and capability of address-decode-registers in the memory controller. While the sub-section support allows memremap_pages() to operate on sub-section (2MiB) granularity, the Power architecture may still require 16MiB alignment on "!radix_enabled()" platforms. In order for libnvdimm to be able to detect and manage this per-arch limitation, introduce memremap_compat_align() as a common minimum alignment across all driver-facing memory-mapping interfaces, and let Power override it to 16MiB in the "!radix_enabled()" case. The assumption / requirement for 16MiB to be a viable memremap_compat_align() value is that Power does not have platforms where its equivalent of address-decode-registers never hardware remaps a persistent memory resource on smaller than 16MiB boundaries. Note that I tried my best to not add a new Kconfig symbol, but header include entanglements defeated the #ifndef memremap_compat_align design pattern and the need to export it defeats the __weak design pattern for arch overrides.

x86, uaccess: introduce copy_from_iter_flushcache for pmem / cache-bypass operations The pmem driver has a need to transfer data with a persistent memory destination and be able to rely on the fact that the destination writes are not cached. It is sufficient for the writes to be flushed to a cpu-store-buffer (non-temporal / "movnt" in x86 terms), as we expect userspace to call fsync() to ensure data-writes have reached a power-fail-safe zone in the platform. The fsync() triggers a REQ_FUA or REQ_FLUSH to the pmem driver which will turn around and fence previous writes with an "sfence". Implement a __copy_from_user_inatomic_flushcache, memcpy_page_flushcache, and memcpy_flushcache, that guarantee that the destination buffer is not dirty in the cpu cache on completion. The new copy_from_iter_flushcache and sub-routines will be used to replace the "pmem api" (include/linux/pmem.h + arch/x86/include/asm/pmem.h). The availability of copy_from_iter_flushcache() and memcpy_flushcache() are gated by the CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_UACCESS_FLUSHCACHE config symbol, and fallback to copy_from_iter_nocache() and plain memcpy() otherwise. This is meant to satisfy the concern from Linus that if a driver wants to do something beyond the normal nocache semantics it should be something private to that driver [1], and Al's concern that anything uaccess related belongs with the rest of the uaccess code [2]. The first consumer of this interface is a new 'copy_from_iter' dax operation so that pmem can inject cache maintenance operations without imposing this overhead on other dax-capable drivers.

x86, powerpc: Rename memcpy_mcsafe() to copy_mc_to_{user, kernel}() In reaction to a proposal to introduce a memcpy_mcsafe_fast() implementation Linus points out that memcpy_mcsafe() is poorly named relative to communicating the scope of the interface. Specifically what addresses are valid to pass as source, destination, and what faults / exceptions are handled. Of particular concern is that even though x86 might be able to handle the semantics of copy_mc_to_user() with its common copy_user_generic() implementation other archs likely need / want an explicit path for this case: On Fri, May 1, 2020 at 11:28 AM Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> wrote: > > On Thu, Apr 30, 2020 at 6:21 PM Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com> wrote: > > > > However now I see that copy_user_generic() works for the wrong reason. > > It works because the exception on the source address due to poison > > looks no different than a write fault on the user address to the > > caller, it's still just a short copy.

Replace a single top-level memcpy_mcsafe() with either copy_mc_to_user(), or copy_mc_to_kernel(). Introduce an x86 copy_mc_fragile() name as the rename for the low-level x86 implementation formerly named memcpy_mcsafe(). It is used as the slow / careful backend that is supplanted by a fast copy_mc_generic() in a follow-on patch. One side-effect of this reorganization is that separating copy_mc_64.S to its own file means that perf no longer needs to track dependencies for its memcpy_64.S benchmarks.

lib/stackdepot: allow optional init and stack_table allocation by kvmalloc() Currently, enabling CONFIG_STACKDEPOT means its stack_table will be allocated from memblock, even if stack depot ends up not actually used. The default size of stack_table is 4MB on 32-bit, 8MB on 64-bit. This is fine for use-cases such as KASAN which is also a config option and has overhead on its own. But it's an issue for functionality that has to be actually enabled on boot (page_owner) or depends on hardware (GPU drivers) and thus the memory might be wasted. This was raised as an issue [1] when attempting to add stackdepot support for SLUB's debug object tracking functionality. It's common to build kernels with CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG and enable slub_debug on boot only when needed, or create only specific kmem caches with debugging for testing purposes. It would thus be more efficient if stackdepot's table was allocated only when actually going to be used. This patch thus makes the allocation (and whole stack_depot_init() call) optional: - Add a CONFIG_STACKDEPOT_ALWAYS_INIT flag to keep using the current well-defined point of allocation as part of mem_init(). Make CONFIG_KASAN select this flag. - Other users have to call stack_depot_init() as part of their own init when it's determined that stack depot will actually be used. This may depend on both config and runtime conditions. Convert current users which are page_owner and several in the DRM subsystem. Same will be done for SLUB later. - Because the init might now be called after the boot-time memblock allocation has given all memory to the buddy allocator, change stack_depot_init() to allocate stack_table with kvmalloc() when memblock is no longer available. Also handle allocation failure by disabling stackdepot (could have theoretically happened even with memblock allocation previously), and don't unnecessarily align the memblock allocation to its own size anymore.

lib/stackdepot: allow optional init and stack_table allocation by kvmalloc() Currently, enabling CONFIG_STACKDEPOT means its stack_table will be allocated from memblock, even if stack depot ends up not actually used. The default size of stack_table is 4MB on 32-bit, 8MB on 64-bit. This is fine for use-cases such as KASAN which is also a config option and has overhead on its own. But it's an issue for functionality that has to be actually enabled on boot (page_owner) or depends on hardware (GPU drivers) and thus the memory might be wasted. This was raised as an issue [1] when attempting to add stackdepot support for SLUB's debug object tracking functionality. It's common to build kernels with CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG and enable slub_debug on boot only when needed, or create only specific kmem caches with debugging for testing purposes. It would thus be more efficient if stackdepot's table was allocated only when actually going to be used. This patch thus makes the allocation (and whole stack_depot_init() call) optional: - Add a CONFIG_STACKDEPOT_ALWAYS_INIT flag to keep using the current well-defined point of allocation as part of mem_init(). Make CONFIG_KASAN select this flag. - Other users have to call stack_depot_init() as part of their own init when it's determined that stack depot will actually be used. This may depend on both config and runtime conditions. Convert current users which are page_owner and several in the DRM subsystem. Same will be done for SLUB later. - Because the init might now be called after the boot-time memblock allocation has given all memory to the buddy allocator, change stack_depot_init() to allocate stack_table with kvmalloc() when memblock is no longer available. Also handle allocation failure by disabling stackdepot (could have theoretically happened even with memblock allocation previously), and don't unnecessarily align the memblock allocation to its own size anymore.

Fix this by moving page_ext_init_flatmem_late() below kmem_cache_init() so that slab_is_available() is true during stack_depot_init(). SPARSEMEM doesn't have this issue, as it doesn't do page_ext_init_flatmem_late(), but a different page_ext_init() even later in the boot process.

lib: add light-weight queuing mechanism. lwq is a FIFO single-linked queue that only requires a spinlock for dequeueing, which happens in process context. Enqueueing is atomic with no spinlock and can happen in any context. This is particularly useful when work items are queued from BH or IRQ context, and when they are handled one at a time by dedicated threads. Avoiding any locking when enqueueing means there is no need to disable BH or interrupts, which is generally best avoided (particularly when there are any RT tasks on the machine). This solution is superior to using "list_head" links because we need half as many pointers in the data structures, and because list_head lists would need locking to add items to the queue. This solution is superior to a bespoke solution as all locking and container_of casting is integrated, so the interface is simple. Despite the similar name, this solution meets a distinctly different need to kfifo. kfifo provides a fixed sized circular buffer to which data can be added at one end and removed at the other, and does not provide any locking. lwq does not have any size limit and works with data structures (objects?) rather than data (bytes). A unit test for basic functionality, which runs at boot time, is included. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de> Cc: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Cc: "Liam R.
