GFP_TEMPORARY was introduced by commit e12ba74d8ff3 ("Group short-lived
and reclaimable kernel allocations") along with __GFP_RECLAIMABLE. It's
primary motivation was to allow users to tell that an allocation is
short lived and so the allocator can try to place such allocations close
together and prevent long term fragmentation. As much as this sounds
like a reasonable semantic it becomes much less clear when to use the
highlevel GFP_TEMPORARY allocation flag. How long is temporary? Can the
context holding that memory sleep? Can it take locks? It seems there is
no good answer for those questions.
The current implementation of GFP_TEMPORARY is basically GFP_KERNEL |
__GFP_RECLAIMABLE which in itself is tricky because basically none of
the existing caller provide a way to reclaim the allocated memory. So
this is rather misleading and hard to evaluate for any benefits.
I have checked some random users and none of them has added the flag
with a specific justification. I suspect most of them just copied from
other existing users and others just thought it might be a good idea to
use without any measuring. This suggests that GFP_TEMPORARY just
motivates for cargo cult usage without any reasoning.
I believe that our gfp flags are quite complex already and especially
those with highlevel semantic should be clearly defined to prevent from
confusion and abuse. Therefore I propose dropping GFP_TEMPORARY and
replace all existing users to simply use GFP_KERNEL. Please note that
SLAB users with shrinkers will still get __GFP_RECLAIMABLE heuristic and
so they will be placed properly for memory fragmentation prevention.
I can see reasons we might want some gfp flag to reflect shorterm
allocations but I propose starting from a clear semantic definition and
only then add users with proper justification.
This was been brought up before LSF this year by Matthew [1] and it
turned out that GFP_TEMPORARY really doesn't have a clear semantic. It
seems to be a heuristic without any measured advantage for most (if not
all) its current users. The follow up discussion has revealed that
opinions on what might be temporary allocation differ a lot between
developers. So rather than trying to tweak existing users into a
semantic which they haven't expected I propose to simply remove the flag
and start from scratch if we really need a semantic for short term
allocations.

Pull powerpc updates from Michael Ellerman:
"Nothing really major this release, despite quite a lot of activity.
Just lots of things all over the place.
Some things of note include:
- Access via perf to a new type of PMU (IMC) on Power9, which can
count both core events as well as nest unit events (Memory
controller etc).
- Optimisations to the radix MMU TLB flushing, mostly to avoid
unnecessary Page Walk Cache (PWC) flushes when the structure of the
tree is not changing.
- Reworks/cleanups of do_page_fault() to modernise it and bring it
closer to other architectures where possible.
- Rework of our page table walking so that THP updates only need to
send IPIs to CPUs where the affected mm has run, rather than all
CPUs.
- The size of our vmalloc area is increased to 56T on 64-bit hash MMU
systems. This avoids problems with the percpu allocator on systems
with very sparse NUMA layouts.
- STRICT_KERNEL_RWX support on PPC32.
- A new sched domain topology for Power9, to capture the fact that
pairs of cores may share an L2 cache.
- Power9 support for VAS, which is a new mechanism for accessing
coprocessors, and initial support for using it with the NX
compression accelerator.
- Major work on the instruction emulation support, adding support for
many new instructions, and reworking it so it can be used to
implement the emulation needed to fixup alignment faults.
- Support for guests under PowerVM to use the Power9 XIVE interrupt
controller.
And probably that many things again that are almost as interesting,
but I had to keep the list short. Plus the usual fixes and cleanups as
always.

cxl keeps a driver use count, which is used with the hash memory model
on p8 to know when to upgrade local TLBIs to global and to trigger
callbacks to manage the MMU for PSL8.
If a process opens a context and closes without attaching or fails the
attachment, the driver use count is never decremented. As a
consequence, TLB invalidations remain global, even if there are no
active cxl contexts.
We should increment the driver use count when the process is attaching
to the cxl adapter, and not on open. It's not needed before the
adapter starts using the context and the use count is decremented on
the detach path, so it makes more sense.
It affects only the user api. The kernel api is already doing The
Right Thing.

We need to add memory barrier so that the page table walk doesn't happen
before the cpumask is set and made visible to the other cpus. We need
to use a sync here instead of lwsync because lwsync is not sufficient for
store/load ordering.
We also need to add an if (mm) check so that we do the right thing when called
with a kernel context. For kernel context, we have mm = NULL. W.r.t kernel
address we can skip setting the mm cpumask.

In certain platforms like TI's DRA7 SoCs, use of legacy PCI interrupt is
exclusive with use of MSI (Section 24.9.4.6.2.1 Legacy PCI Interrupts in
http://www.ti.com/lit/ug/spruhz6i/spruhz6i.pdf).
However pci_endpoint_test driver enables MSI by default in probe. In order
for pci_endpoint_test to be able to test legacy interrupt, MSI should be
disabled. Add a module param 'no_msi' to disable MSI (only when legacy
interrupt has to be tested).

Some platforms like TI's K2G have a restriction that the host side buffer
address should be aligned to either 1MB/2MB/4MB or 8MB addresses depending
on how it is configured in the endpoint (Ref: 11.14.4.9.1 Outbound Address
Translation in K2G TRM SPRUHY8F January 2016 – Revised May 2017). This
restriction also applies to the MSI addresses provided by the RC. However
it's not possible for the RC to know about this restriction and it may not
provide 1MB/2MB/4MB or 8MB aligned address. So MSI interrupts should be
disabled even if the K2G EP has MSI capabiltiy register.
Add support to not enable MSI interrupts in pci_endpoint_test driver so
that it can be used to test K2G EP.

We use mm cpumask for serializing against lockless page table walk.
Anybody who is doing a lockless page table walk is expected to disable
irq and only cpus in mm cpumask is expected do the lockless walk. This
ensure that a THP split can send IPI to only cpus in the mm cpumask,
to make sure there are no parallel lockless page table walk.
Add the CAPI fault handling cpu to the mm cpumask so that we can do
the lockless page table walk while inserting hash page table entries.

- Add new CORRUPT_STACK_STRONG to test -fstack-protector-strong, since
the existing CORRUPT_STACK test only tested regular -fstack-protector.
- Add pair of tests for checking kernel stack leading/trailing guard pages

There wasn't an LKDTM test to distinguish between -fstack-protector and
-fstack-protector-strong in use. This adds CORRUPT_STACK_STRONG to see
the difference. Also adjusts the stack-clobber value to 0xff so execution
won't potentially jump into userspace when the stack protector is missing.

Kees writes a very short note:
improvements for refcount protections
|
|
While not a crash test, this does provide two tight atomic_t and
refcount_t loops for performance comparisons:
cd /sys/kernel/debug/provoke-crash
perf stat -B -- cat <(echo ATOMIC_TIMING) > DIRECT
perf stat -B -- cat <(echo REFCOUNT_TIMING) > DIRECT
Looking a CPU cycles is the best way to example the fast-path (rather
than instruction counts, since conditional jumps will be executed but
will be negligible due to branch-prediction).

The existing REFCOUNT_* LKDTM tests were designed only for testing a narrow
portion of CONFIG_REFCOUNT_FULL. This moves the tests to their own file and
expands their testing to poke each boundary condition.
Since the protections (CONFIG_REFCOUNT_FULL and x86-fast) use different
saturation values and reach-zero behavior, those have to be build-time
set so the tests can actually validate things are happening at the
right places.
Notably, the x86-fast protection will fail REFCOUNT_INC_ZERO and
REFCOUNT_ADD_ZERO since those conditions are not checked (only overflow
is critical to protecting refcount_t). CONFIG_REFCOUNT_FULL will warn for
each REFCOUNT_*_NEGATIVE test since it provides zero-pinning behaviors
(which allows it to pass REFCOUNT_INC_ZERO and REFCOUNT_ADD_ZERO).

Device 'new_id' interface is useful for testing of not yet published
hardware on older kernels and for internally used device ids on
simulation platforms.
However currently with the device configuration held in device_id driver
data as a pointer to mei_cfg structure it is hard, as one need to locate
the address of the correct structure.
A recommended way of doing that is to use and index instead of a
pointer.
This patch adds a new list of configuration mei_cfg_list[]
indexed via enum mei_cfg_idx.
In addition it cleanups ich platform naming, renames legacy
generation to ich and what was ich to ich10.

On some platforms, currently Broxton, Apollo Lake and Kaby Lake,
ME FW may be busy with internal bookkeeping and answering late
to the start message.
As a mitigation, the driver requests for a synchronous probing
to prevent stalling of the overall boot process. For example,
on a Apollo Lake platform the overall boot time has reduced from
~0.9 to ~0.6 seconds on average.

This patch exports a in-kernel 'library' API which can be called by
other drivers to help interacting with an IBM XSL on a POWER9 system.
The XSL (Translation Service Layer) is a stripped down version of the
PSL (Power Service Layer) used in some cards such as the Mellanox CX5.
Like the PSL, it implements the CAIA architecture, but has a number
of differences, mostly in it's implementation dependent registers.
The XSL also uses a special DMA cxl mode, which uses a slightly
different init sequence for the CAPP and PHB.
