Merge tag 'arch-cache-topo-5.20' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/sudeep.holla/linux into driver-core-next Sudeep writes: cacheinfo and arch_topology updates for v5.20 These are updates to fix some discrepancies we have in the CPU topology parsing from the device tree /cpu-map node and the divergence from the behaviour on a ACPI enabled platform. The expectation is that both DT and ACPI enabled systems must present consistent view of the CPU topology. The current assignment of generated cluster count as the physical package identifier for each CPU is wrong. The device tree bindings for CPU topology supports sockets to infer the socket or physical package identifier for a given CPU. It is now being made use of you address the issue. These updates also assigns the cluster identifier as parsed from the device tree cluster nodes within /cpu-map without support for nesting of the clusters as there are no such reported/known platforms. In order to be on par with ACPI PPTT physical package/socket support, these updates also include support for socket nodes in /cpu-map. The only exception is that the last level cache id information can be inferred from the same ACPI PPTT while we need to parse CPU cache nodes in the device tree. The cacheinfo changes here is to enable the re-use of the cacheinfo to detect the cache attributes for all the CPU quite early even before the scondardaries are booted so that the information can be used to build the schedular domains especially the last level cache(LLC). * tag 'arch-cache-topo-5.20' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/sudeep.holla/linux: (21 commits) ACPI: Remove the unused find_acpi_cpu_cache_topology() arch_topology: Warn that topology for nested clusters is not supported arch_topology: Add support for parsing sockets in /cpu-map arch_topology: Set cluster identifier in each core/thread from /cpu-map arch_topology: Limit span of cpu_clustergroup_mask() arch_topology: Don't set cluster identifier as physical package identifier arch_topology: Avoid parsing through all the CPUs once a outlier CPU is found arch_topology: Check for non-negative value rather than -1 for IDs validity arch_topology: Set thread sibling cpumask only within the cluster arch_topology: Drop LLC identifier stash from the CPU topology arm64: topology: Remove redundant setting of llc_id in CPU topology arch_topology: Use the last level cache information from the cacheinfo arch_topology: Add support to parse and detect cache attributes cacheinfo: Align checks in cache_shared_cpu_map_{setup,remove} for readability cacheinfo: Use cache identifiers to check if the caches are shared if available cacheinfo: Allow early detection and population of cache attributes cacheinfo: Add support to check if last level cache(LLC) is valid or shared cacheinfo: Move cache_leaves_are_shared out of CONFIG_OF cacheinfo: Add helper to access any cache index for a given CPU cacheinfo: Use of_cpu_device_node_get instead cpu_dev->of_node ...

Finally let us add support for socket nodes in /cpu-map in the device tree. Since this may not be present in all the old platforms and even most of the existing platforms, we need to assume absence of the socket node indicates that it is a single socket system and handle appropriately. Also it is likely that most single socket systems skip to as the node since it is optional.

Currently the cluster identifier is not set on DT based platforms. The reset or default value is -1 for all the CPUs. Once we assign the cluster identifier values correctly, the cluster_sibling mask will be populated and returned by cpu_clustergroup_mask() to contribute in the creation of the CLS scheduling domain level, if SCHED_CLUSTER is enabled. To avoid topologies that will result in questionable or incorrect scheduling domains, impose restrictions regarding the span of clusters, as presented to scheduling domains building code: cluster_sibling should not span more or the same CPUs as cpu_coregroup_mask(). This is needed in order to obtain a strict separation between the MC and CLS levels, and maintain the same domains for existing platforms in the presence of CONFIG_SCHED_CLUSTER, where the new cluster information is redundant and irrelevant for the scheduler. While previously the scheduling domain builder code would have removed MC as redundant and kept CLS if SCHED_CLUSTER was enabled and the cpu_coregroup_mask() and cpu_clustergroup_mask() spanned the same CPUs, now CLS will be removed and MC kept.

Currently as we parse the CPU topology from /cpu-map node from the device tree, we assign generated cluster count as the physical package identifier for each CPU which is wrong. The device tree bindings for CPU topology supports sockets to infer the socket or physical package identifier for a given CPU. Since it is fairly new and not supported on most of the old and existing systems, we can assume all such systems have single socket/physical package. Fix the physical package identifier to 0 by removing the assignment of cluster identifier to the same.

Currently the cluster identifier is not set on the DT based platforms. The reset or default value is -1 for all the CPUs. Once we assign the cluster identifier values correctly that may result in getting the thread siblings wrong as the core identifiers can be same for 2 different CPUs belonging to 2 different cluster. So, in order to get the thread sibling cpumasks correct, we need to update them only if the cores they belong are in the same cluster within the socket. Let us skip updation of the thread sibling cpumaks if the cluster identifier doesn't match. This change won't affect even if the cluster identifiers are not set currently but will avoid any breakage once we set the same correctly.

Currently ACPI populates just the minimum information about the last level cache from PPTT in order to feed the same to build sched_domains. Similar support for DT platforms is not present. In order to enable the same, the entire cache hierarchy information can be built as part of CPU topoplogy parsing both on ACPI and DT platforms. Note that this change builds the cacheinfo early even on ACPI systems, but the current mechanism of building llc_sibling mask remains unchanged.

It is useful to have helper to check if the given two CPUs share last level cache. We can do that check by comparing fw_token or by comparing the cache ID. Currently we check just for fw_token as the cache ID is optional. This helper can be used to build the llc_sibling during arch specific topology parsing and feeding information to the sched_domains. This also helps to get rid of llc_id in the CPU topology as it is sort of duplicate information. Also add helper to check if the llc information in cacheinfo is valid or not.

There is need to use the cache sharing information quite early during the boot before the secondary cores are up and running. The permanent memory map for all the ACPI tables(via acpi_permanent_mmap) is turned on in acpi_early_init() which is quite late for the above requirement. As a result there is possibility that the ACPI PPTT gets mapped to different virtual addresses. In such scenarios, using virtual address as fw_token before the acpi_permanent_mmap is enabled results in different fw_token for the same cache entity and hence wrong cache sharing information will be deduced based on the same. Instead of using virtual address, just use the table offset as the unique firmware token for the caches. The same offset is used as ACPI identifiers if the firmware has not set a valid one for other entries in the ACPI PPTT.

Commit 71066545 ("driver core: Set fw_devlink.strict=1 by default") enabled iommus and dmas dependency enforcement by default. On some systems, this caused the console device's probe to get delayed until the deferred_probe_timeout expires. We need consoles to work as soon as possible, so mark the console device node with FWNODE_FLAG_BEST_EFFORT so that fw_delink knows not to delay the probe of the console device for suppliers without drivers. The driver can then make the decision on where it can probe without those suppliers or defer its probe.

When firmware sets the FWNODE_FLAG_BEST_EFFORT flag for a fwnode, fw_devlink will do a best effort ordering for that device where it'll only enforce the probe/suspend/resume ordering of that device with suppliers that have drivers. The driver of that device can then decide if it wants to defer probe or probe without the suppliers.

In current kernfs design a single mutex, kernfs_open_file_mutex, protects the list of kernfs_open_file instances corresponding to a sysfs attribute. So even if different tasks are opening or closing different sysfs files they can contend on osq_lock of this mutex. The contention is more apparent in large scale systems with few hundred CPUs where most of the CPUs have running tasks that are opening, accessing or closing sysfs files at any point of time. Using hashed mutexes in place of a single global mutex, can significantly reduce contention around global mutex and hence can provide better scalability. Moreover as these hashed mutexes are not part of kernfs_node objects we will not see any singnificant change in memory utilization of kernfs based file systems like sysfs, cgroupfs etc. Modify interface introduced in previous patch to make use of hashed mutexes. Use kernfs_node address as hashing key.

In __driver_attach function, There are also AA deadlock problem, like the commit b232b02b ("driver core: fix deadlock in __device_attach"). stack like commit b232b02b ("driver core: fix deadlock in __device_attach"). list below: In __driver_attach function, The lock holding logic is as follows: ... __driver_attach if (driver_allows_async_probing(drv)) device_lock(dev) // get lock dev async_schedule_dev(__driver_attach_async_helper, dev); // func async_schedule_node async_schedule_node_domain(func) entry = kzalloc(sizeof(struct async_entry), GFP_ATOMIC); /* when fail or work limit, sync to execute func, but __driver_attach_async_helper will get lock dev as will, which will lead to A-A deadlock. */ if (!entry || atomic_read(&entry_count) > MAX_WORK) { func; else queue_work_node(node, system_unbound_wq, &entry->work) device_unlock(dev) As above show, when it is allowed to do async probes, because of out of memory or work limit, async work is not be allowed, to do sync execute instead. it will lead to A-A deadlock because of __driver_attach_async_helper getting lock dev. Reproduce: and it can be reproduce by make the condition (if (!entry || atomic_read(&entry_count) > MAX_WORK)) untenable, like below: [ 370.785650] "echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/hung_task_timeout_secs" disables this message.

When the devtmpfs fails to mount, a dangling pointer still remains in global. Specifically, the err variable is passed by a pointer to the devtmpfsd. When the devtmpfsd exits, it sets the error and completes the setup_done. In this situation, the thread pointer is not set to null. After the devtmpfsd exited, the devtmpfs can wakes up the destroyed devtmpfsd thread by wake_up_process if a device change event comes.

There are sleep in atomic context bugs when uploading device dump data in mwifiex. The root cause is that dev_coredumpv could not be used in atomic contexts, because it calls dev_set_name which include operations that may sleep. The call tree shows execution paths that could lead to bugs: (Interrupt context) fw_dump_timer_fn mwifiex_upload_device_dump dev_coredumpv(..., GFP_KERNEL) dev_coredumpm() kzalloc(sizeof(*devcd), gfp); //may sleep dev_set_name kobject_set_name_vargs kvasprintf_const(GFP_KERNEL, ...); //may sleep kstrdup(s, GFP_KERNEL); //may sleep The corresponding fail log is shown below: [ 135.275938] usb 1-1: == mwifiex dump information to /sys/class/devcoredump start [ 135.281029] BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at include/linux/sched/mm.h:265 ...

The dev_coredumpv() and dev_coredumpm() could not be used in atomic context, because they call kvasprintf_const() and kstrdup() with GFP_KERNEL parameter. The process is shown below: dev_coredumpv(.., gfp_t gfp) dev_coredumpm(.., gfp_t gfp) dev_set_name kobject_set_name_vargs kvasprintf_const(GFP_KERNEL, ...); //may sleep kstrdup(s, GFP_KERNEL); //may sleep This patch removes gfp_t parameter of dev_coredumpv() and dev_coredumpm() and changes the gfp_t parameter of kzalloc() in dev_coredumpm() to GFP_KERNEL in order to show they could not be used in atomic context.
