      blk-mq: cancel blk-mq dispatch work in both blk_cleanup_queue and disk_release() · 2a19b28f
      Ming Lei authored
      For avoiding to slow down queue destroy, we don't call
      blk_mq_quiesce_queue() in blk_cleanup_queue(), instead of delaying to
      cancel dispatch work in blk_release_queue().
      
      However, this way has caused kernel oops[1], reported by Changhui. The log
      shows that scsi_device can be freed before running blk_release_queue(),
      which is expected too since scsi_device is released after the scsi disk
      is closed and the scsi_device is removed.
      
      Fixes the issue by canceling blk-mq dispatch work in both blk_cleanup_queue()
      and disk_release():
      
      1) when disk_release() is run, the disk has been closed, and any sync
      dispatch activities have been done, so canceling dispatch work is enough to
      quiesce filesystem I/O dispatch activity.
      
      2) in blk_cleanup_queue(), we only focus on passthrough request, and
      passthrough request is always explicitly allocated & freed by
      its caller, so once queue is frozen, all sync dispatch activity
      for passthrough request has been done, then it is enough to just cancel
      dispatch work for avoiding any dispatch activity.

      block: fix missing queue put in error path · 95febeb6
      Jens Axboe authored
      If we fail the submission queue checks, we don't put the queue afterwards.
      This can cause various issues like stalls on scheduler switch or failure
      to remove the device, or like in the original bug report, timeout waiting
      for the device on reboot/restart.
      
      While in there, fix a few whitespace discrepancies in the surrounding
      code.

      kconfig: Add support for -Wimplicit-fallthrough · dee2b702
      Gustavo A. R. Silva authored
      Add Kconfig support for -Wimplicit-fallthrough for both GCC and Clang.
      
      The compiler option is under configuration CC_IMPLICIT_FALLTHROUGH,
      which is enabled by default.
      
      Special thanks to Nathan Chancellor who fixed the Clang bug[1][2]. This
      bugfix only appears in Clang 14.0.0, so older versions still contain
      the bug and -Wimplicit-fallthrough won't be enabled for them, for now.
      
      This concludes a long journey and now we are finally getting rid
      of the unintentional fallthrough bug-class in the kernel, entirely. :)

        IOWs, diff suffices to demonstrate that the userspace tools behave the

         - Clean up open-coded swap() calls.

           destroying the sysfs entries before freeing the memory which is

         - Implement a mask quirk for the Nvidia ION AHCI chip which does not
           advertise masking capability despite implementing it. Even worse
           the chip comes out of reset with all MSI entries masked, which due
           to the missing masking capability never get unmasked.
      
         - Move the check which prevents accessing the MSI[X] masking for XEN
           back into the low level accessors. The recent consolidation missed
           that these accessors can be invoked from places which do not have

      Pull zstd update from Nick Terrell:
       "Update to zstd-1.4.10.
      
        Add myself as the maintainer of zstd and update the zstd version in
        the kernel, which is now 4 years out of date, to a much more recent
        zstd release. This includes bug fixes, much more extensive fuzzing,
        and performance improvements. And generates the kernel zstd
        automatically from upstream zstd, so it is easier to keep the zstd
        verison up to date, and we don't fall so far out of date again.
      
        This includes 5 commits that update the zstd library version:
      
         - Adds a new kernel-style wrapper around zstd.
      
           This wrapper API is functionally equivalent to the subset of the
           current zstd API that is currently used. The wrapper API changes to
           be kernel style so that the symbols don't collide with zstd's
           symbols. The update to zstd-1.4.10 maintains the same API and
           preserves the semantics, so that none of the callers need to be
           updated. All callers are updated in the commit, because there are
           zero functional changes.
      
         - Adds an indirection for `lib/decompress_unzstd.c` so it doesn't
           depend on the layout of `lib/zstd/` to include every source file.
           This allows the next patch to be automatically generated.
      
         - Imports the zstd-1.4.10 source code. This commit is automatically
           generated from upstream zstd (https://github.com/facebook/zstd).
      
         - Adds me (terrelln@fb.com) as the maintainer of `lib/zstd`.
      
         - Fixes a newly added build warning for clang.
      
        The discussion around this patchset has been pretty long, so I've
        included a FAQ-style summary of the history of the patchset, and why
        we are taking this approach.
      
        Why do we need to update?
        -------------------------
      
        The zstd version in the kernel is based off of zstd-1.3.1, which is
        was released August 20, 2017. Since then zstd has seen many bug fixes
        and performance improvements. And, importantly, upstream zstd is
        continuously fuzzed by OSS-Fuzz, and bug fixes aren't backported to
        older versions. So the only way to sanely get these fixes is to keep
        up to date with upstream zstd.
      
        There are no known security issues that affect the kernel, but we need
        to be able to update in case there are. And while there are no known
        security issues, there are relevant bug fixes. For example the problem
        with large kernel decompression has been fixed upstream for over 2
        years [1]
      
        Additionally the performance improvements for kernel use cases are
        significant. Measured for x86_64 on my Intel i9-9900k @ 3.6 GHz:
      
         - BtrFS zstd compression at levels 1 and 3 is 5% faster
      
         - BtrFS zstd decompression+read is 15% faster
      
         - SquashFS zstd decompression+read is 15% faster
      
         - F2FS zstd compression+write at level 3 is 8% faster
      
         - F2FS zstd decompression+read is 20% faster
      
         - ZRAM decompression+read is 30% faster
      
         - Kernel zstd decompression is 35% faster
      
         - Initramfs zstd decompression+build is 5% faster
      
        On top of this, there are significant performance improvements coming
        down the line in the next zstd release, and the new automated update
        patch generation will allow us to pull them easily.
      
        How is the update patch generated?
        ----------------------------------
      
        The first two patches are preparation for updating the zstd version.
        Then the 3rd patch in the series imports upstream zstd into the
        kernel. This patch is automatically generated from upstream. A script
        makes the necessary changes and imports it into the kernel. The
        changes are:
      
         - Replace all libc dependencies with kernel replacements and rewrite
           includes.
      
         - Remove unncessary portability macros like: #if defined(_MSC_VER).
      
         - Use the kernel xxhash instead of bundling it.
      
        This automation gets tested every commit by upstream's continuous
        integration. When we cut a new zstd release, we will submit a patch to
        the kernel to update the zstd version in the kernel.
      
        The automated process makes it easy to keep the kernel version of zstd
        up to date. The current zstd in the kernel shares the guts of the
        code, but has a lot of API and minor changes to work in the kernel.
        This is because at the time upstream zstd was not ready to be used in
        the kernel envrionment as-is. But, since then upstream zstd has
        evolved to support being used in the kernel as-is.
      
        Why are we updating in one big patch?
        -------------------------------------
      
        The 3rd patch in the series is very large. This is because it is
        restructuring the code, so it both deletes the existing zstd, and
        re-adds the new structure. Future updates will be directly
        proportional to the changes in upstream zstd since the last import.
        They will admittidly be large, as zstd is an actively developed
        project, and has hundreds of commits between every release. However,
        there is no other great alternative.
      
        One option ruled out is to replay every upstream zstd commit. This is
        not feasible for several reasons:
      
         - There are over 3500 upstream commits since the zstd version in the
           kernel.
      
         - The automation to automatically generate the kernel update was only
           added recently, so older commits cannot easily be imported.
      
         - Not every upstream zstd commit builds.
      
         - Only zstd releases are "supported", and individual commits may have
           bugs that were fixed before a release.
      
        Another option to reduce the patch size would be to first reorganize
        to the new file structure, and then apply the patch. However, the
        current kernel zstd is formatted with clang-format to be more
        "kernel-like". But, the new method imports zstd as-is, without
        additional formatting, to allow for closer correlation with upstream,
        and easier debugging. So the patch wouldn't be any smaller.
      
        It also doesn't make sense to import upstream zstd commit by commit
        going forward. Upstream zstd doesn't support production use cases
        running of the development branch. We have a lot of post-commit
        fuzzing that catches many bugs, so indiviudal commits may be buggy,
        but fixed before a release. So going forward, I intend to import every
        (important) zstd release into the Kernel.
      
        So, while it isn't ideal, updating in one big patch is the only patch
        I see forward.
      
        Who is responsible for this code?
        ---------------------------------
      
        I am. This patchset adds me as the maintainer for zstd. Previously,
        there was no tree for zstd patches. Because of that, there were
        several patches that either got ignored, or took a long time to merge,
        since it wasn't clear which tree should pick them up. I'm officially
        stepping up as maintainer, and setting up my tree as the path through
        which zstd patches get merged. I'll make sure that patches to the
        kernel zstd get ported upstream, so they aren't erased when the next
        version update happens.
      
        How is this code tested?
        ------------------------
      
        I tested every caller of zstd on x86_64 (BtrFS, ZRAM, SquashFS, F2FS,
        Kernel, InitRAMFS). I also tested Kernel & InitRAMFS on i386 and
        aarch64. I checked both performance and correctness.
      
        Also, thanks to many people in the community who have tested these
        patches locally.
      
        Lastly, this code will bake in linux-next before being merged into
        v5.16.
      
        Why update to zstd-1.4.10 when zstd-1.5.0 has been released?
        ------------------------------------------------------------
      
        This patchset has been outstanding since 2020, and zstd-1.4.10 was the
        latest release when it was created. Since the update patch is
        automatically generated from upstream, I could generate it from
        zstd-1.5.0.
      
        However, there were some large stack usage regressions in zstd-1.5.0,
        and are only fixed in the latest development branch. And the latest
        development branch contains some new code that needs to bake in the
        fuzzer before I would feel comfortable releasing to the kernel.
      
        Once this patchset has been merged, and we've released zstd-1.5.1, we
        can update the kernel to zstd-1.5.1, and exercise the update process.
      
        You may notice that zstd-1.4.10 doesn't exist upstream. This release
        is an artifical release based off of zstd-1.4.9, with some fixes for
        the kernel backported from the development branch. I will tag the
        zstd-1.4.10 release after this patchset is merged, so the Linux Kernel
        is running a known version of zstd that can be debugged upstream.
      
        Why was a wrapper API added?
        ----------------------------
      
        The first versions of this patchset migrated the kernel to the
        upstream zstd API. It first added a shim API that supported the new
        upstream API with the old code, then updated callers to use the new
        shim API, then transitioned to the new code and deleted the shim API.
        However, Cristoph Hellwig suggested that we transition to a kernel
        style API, and hide zstd's upstream API behind that. This is because
        zstd's upstream API is supports many other use cases, and does not
        follow the kernel style guide, while the kernel API is focused on the
        kernel's use cases, and follows the kernel style guide.
      
        Where is the previous discussion?
        ---------------------------------
      
        Links for the discussions of the previous versions of the patch set
        below. The largest changes in the design of the patchset are driven by
        the discussions in v11, v5, and v1. Sorry for the mix of links, I

      perf tests: Remove bash construct from record+zstd_comp_decomp.sh · a9cdc1c5
      James Clark authored
      Commit 463538a3 ("perf tests: Fix test 68 zstd compression for
      s390") inadvertently removed the -g flag from all platforms rather than
      just s390, because the [[ ]] construct fails in sh. Changing to single
      brackets restores testing of call graphs and removes the following error
      from the output:
      
        $ ./perf test -v 85
        85: Zstd perf.data compression/decompression                        :
        --- start ---
        test child forked, pid 50643
        Collecting compressed record file:
        ./tests/shell/record+zstd_comp_decomp.sh: 15: [[: not found
      
      Fixes: 463538a3 ("perf tests: Fix test 68 zstd compression for s390")

      perf test: Remove bash construct from stat_bpf_counters.sh test · c8b94764
      James Clark authored
      Currently the test skips with an error because == only works in bash:
      
        $ ./perf test 91 -v
        Couldn't bump rlimit(MEMLOCK), failures may take place when creating BPF maps, etc
        91: perf stat --bpf-counters test                                   :
        --- start ---
        test child forked, pid 44586
        ./tests/shell/stat_bpf_counters.sh: 26: [: -v: unexpected operator
        test child finished with -2
        ---- end ----
        perf stat --bpf-counters test: Skip
      
      Changing == to = does the same thing, but doesn't result in an error:
      
        ./perf test 91 -v
        Couldn't bump rlimit(MEMLOCK), failures may take place when creating BPF maps, etc
        91: perf stat --bpf-counters test                                   :
        --- start ---
        test child forked, pid 45833
        Skipping: --bpf-counters not supported
          Error: unknown option `bpf-counters'
        [...]
        test child finished with -2
        ---- end ----
        perf stat --bpf-counters test: Skip
