A recent change in gcc caused this build failure: /var/lib/jenkins/workspace/gcc_kernel_build/linux/drivers/misc/cxl/cxl.h:72:27: error: ‘CXL_PSL_DLCNTL’ defined but not used [-Werror=unused-const-variable] static const cxl_p1_reg_t CXL_PSL_DLCNTL = {0x0060}; Because of this gcc commit: Commit 1bca8cbd0c68366f07277f98ce6963e10c2aa617 by mark PR28901 -Wunused-variable ignores unused const initialised variables in C 12 years ago it was decided that -Wunused-variable shouldn't warn about static const variables because some code used const static char rcsid[] strings which were never used but wanted in the code anyway. But as the bug points out this hides some real bugs. These days the usage of rcsids is not very popular anymore. So this patch changes the default to warn about unused static const variables in C with -Wunused-variable. And it adds a new option -Wno-unused-const-variable to turn this warning off. For C++ this new warning is off by default, since const variables can be used as #defines in C++. New testcases for the new defaults in C and C++ are included testing the new warning and suppressing it with an unused attribute or using -Wno-unused-const-variable. gcc/ChangeLog The cxl driver uses static consts in place of #defines in some cases for type safety, so this change causes the driver to fail to build on new copilers as these constants are not all used in every file that imports the header. Suppress the warning for this driver to return to the old behaviour of -Wunused-variable.

Currently the first thing we do in cxl_probe is to grab a reference on the pci device. Later on, we call device_register on our adapter. In our remove path, we call device_unregister, but we never call pci_dev_put. We therefore leak the device every time we do a reflash. device_register/unregister is sufficient to hold the reference. Therefore, drop the call to pci_dev_get. Here's why this is safe. The proposed cxl_probe(pdev) calls cxl_adapter_init: a) init calls cxl_adapter_alloc, which creates a struct cxl, conventionally called adapter. This struct contains a device entry, adapter->dev. b) init calls cxl_configure_adapter, where we set adapter->dev.parent = &dev->dev (here dev is the pci dev) So at this point, the cxl adapter's device's parent is the PCI device that I want to be refcounted properly. c) init calls cxl_register_adapter *) cxl_register_adapter calls device_register(&adapter->dev) So now we're in device_register, where dev is the adapter device, and we want to know if the PCI device is safe after we return. device_register(&adapter->dev) calls device_initialize() and then device_add(). device_add() does a get_device(). device_add() also explicitly grabs the device's parent, and calls get_device() on it: parent = get_device(dev->parent); So therefore, device_register() takes a lock on the parent PCI dev, which is what pci_dev_get() was guarding. pci_dev_get() can therefore be safely removed.

This fixes a race which can result in the same virtual IRQ number being assigned to two different MSI interrupts. The most visible consequence of that is usually a warning and stack trace from the sysfs code about an attempt to create a duplicate entry in sysfs. The race happens when one CPU (say CPU 0) is disposing of an MSI while another CPU (say CPU 1) is setting up an MSI. CPU 0 calls (for example) pnv_teardown_msi_irqs(), which calls msi_bitmap_free_hwirqs() to indicate that the MSI (i.e. its hardware IRQ number) is no longer in use. Then, before CPU 0 gets to calling irq_dispose_mapping() to free up the virtal IRQ number, CPU 1 comes in and calls msi_bitmap_alloc_hwirqs() to allocate an MSI, and gets the same hardware IRQ number that CPU 0 just freed. CPU 1 then calls irq_create_mapping() to get a virtual IRQ number, which sees that there is currently a mapping for that hardware IRQ number and returns the corresponding virtual IRQ number (which is the same virtual IRQ number that CPU 0 was using). CPU 0 then calls irq_dispose_mapping() and frees that virtual IRQ number. Now, if another CPU comes along and calls irq_create_mapping(), it is likely to get the virtual IRQ number that was just freed, resulting in the same virtual IRQ number apparently being used for two different hardware interrupts. To fix this race, we just move the call to msi_bitmap_free_hwirqs() to after the call to irq_dispose_mapping(). Since virq_to_hw() doesn't work for the virtual IRQ number after irq_dispose_mapping() has been called, we need to call it before irq_dispose_mapping() and remember the result for the msi_bitmap_free_hwirqs() call. The pattern of calling msi_bitmap_free_hwirqs() before irq_dispose_mapping() appears in 5 places under arch/powerpc, and appears to have originated in commit 05af7bd2 ("[POWERPC] MPIC U3/U4 MSI backend") from 2007.

Commit f32393c9 ("powerpc/pseries: Correct cpu affinity for dlpar added cpus") moved dlpar_acquire_drc() call to before dlpar_configure_connector() call in dlpar_cpu_probe(), but missed to release the DRC if dlpar_configure_connector() failed. During CPU hotplug, if configure-connector fails for any reason, then this will result in subsequent CPU hotplug attempts to fail. Release the acquired DRC if dlpar_configure_connector() call fails so that the DRC is left in right isolation and allocation state for the subsequent hotplug operation to succeed.

cxl_pci_enable_device_hook() is called when attempting to enable an AFU sitting on a vPHB. At present, the state of the underlying CXL card's PCI channel is only checked when it calls cxl_afu_check_and_enable() at the very end, after it has already set DMA options and initialised a default context. Check the CXL card's link status before setting DMA options or initialising a default context. If the link is down, print a warning and return immediately.

The 32-bit TCE table initialization relies on the DMA window having a size equal to a power of 2 (and checks for it explicitly). But crashkernel= has no constraint that requires a power-of-2 be specified. This causes the kdump kernel to fail to boot as none of the PCI devices (including the disk controller) are successfully initialized. After this change, the PCI devices successfully set up the 32-bit TCE table and kdump succeeds.

When attempting to kdump with the 4.2 kernel, we see for each PCI device: pci 0003:01 : [PE# 000] Assign DMA32 space pci 0003:01 : [PE# 000] Setting up 32-bit TCE table at 0..80000000 pci 0003:01 : [PE# 000] Failed to create 32-bit TCE table, err -22 PCI: Domain 0004 has 8 available 32-bit DMA segments PCI: 4 PE# for a total weight of 70 pci 0004:01 : [PE# 002] Assign DMA32 space pci 0004:01 : [PE# 002] Setting up 32-bit TCE table at 0..80000000 pci 0004:01 : [PE# 002] Failed to create 32-bit TCE table, err -22 pci 0004:0d : [PE# 005] Assign DMA32 space pci 0004:0d : [PE# 005] Setting up 32-bit TCE table at 0..80000000 pci 0004:0d : [PE# 005] Failed to create 32-bit TCE table, err -22 pci 0004:0e : [PE# 006] Assign DMA32 space pci 0004:0e : [PE# 006] Setting up 32-bit TCE table at 0..80000000 pci 0004:0e : [PE# 006] Failed to create 32-bit TCE table, err -22 pci 0004:10 : [PE# 008] Assign DMA32 space pci 0004:10 : [PE# 008] Setting up 32-bit TCE table at 0..80000000 pci 0004:10 : [PE# 008] Failed to create 32-bit TCE table, err -22 and eventually the kdump kernel fails to boot as none of the PCI devices (including the disk controller) are successfully initialized. The EINVAL response is because the DMA window (the 2GB base window) is larger than the kdump kernel's reserved memory (crashkernel=, in this case specified to be 1024M). The check in question, if ((window_size > memory_hotplug_max()) || !is_power_of_2(window_size)) is a valid sanity check for pnv_pci_ioda2_table_alloc_pages(), so adjust the caller to pass in a smaller window size if our maximum memory value is smaller than the DMA window. After this change, the PCI devices successfully set up the 32-bit TCE table and kdump succeeds. The problem was seen on a Firestone machine originally.

In commit f341861f ("task_work: add a scheduling point in task_work_run()") I fixed a latency problem adding a cond_resched() call. Later, commit ac3d0da8 added yet another loop to reverse a list, bringing back the latency spike : I've seen in some cases this loop taking 275 ms, if for example a process with 2,000,000 files is killed. We could add yet another cond_resched() in the reverse loop, or we can simply remove the reversal, as I do not think anything would depend on order of task_work_add() submitted works.

vma->vm_ops->mremap() looks more natural and clean in move_vma(), and this way ->mremap() can have more users. Say, vdso. While at it, s/aio_ring_remap/aio_ring_mremap/. Note: this is the minimal change before ->mremap() finds another user in file_operations; this method should have more arguments, and it can be used to kill arch_remap().

move_vma() can't just return if f_op->mremap() fails, we should unmap the new vma like we do if move_page_tables() fails. To avoid the code duplication this patch moves the "move entries back" under the new "if (err)" branch.

With DAX, pfn mapping becoming more common. The patch adjusts GUP code to cover pfn mapping for cases when we don't need struct page to proceed. To make it possible, let's change follow_page() code to return -EEXIST error code if proper page table entry exists, but no corresponding struct page. __get_user_page() would ignore the error code and move to the next page frame. The immediate effect of the change is working MAP_POPULATE and mlock() on DAX mappings. [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix arm64 build] Signed-off-by: Kirill A.

Clark stumbled over a VM_BUG_ON() in -RT which was then was removed by Johannes in commit f371763a ("mm: memcontrol: fix false-positive VM_BUG_ON() on -rt"). The comment before that patch was a tiny bit better than it is now. While the patch claimed to fix a false-postive on -RT this was not the case. None of the -RT folks ACKed it and it was not a false positive report. That was a *real* problem. This patch updates the comment that is improper because it refers to "disabled preemption" as a consequence of that lock being taken. A spin_lock() disables preemption, true, but in this case the code relies on the fact that the lock _also_ disables interrupts once it is acquired. And this is the important detail (which was checked the VM_BUG_ON()) which needs to be pointed out. This is the hint one needs while looking at the code. It was explained by Johannes on the list that the per-CPU variables are protected by local_irq_save(). The BUG_ON() was helpful. This code has been workarounded in -RT in the meantime. I wouldn't mind running into more of those if the code in question uses *special* kind of locking since now there is no verification (in terms of lockdep or BUG_ON()) and therefore I bring the VM_BUG_ON() check back in. The two functions after the comment could also have a "local_irq_save()" dance around them in order to serialize access to the per-CPU variables. This has been avoided because the interrupts should be off.

This change fills devm_gen_pool_create()/gen_pool_get() "name" argument stub with contents and extends of_gen_pool_get() functionality on this basis. If there is no associated platform device with a device node passed to of_gen_pool_get(), the function attempts to get a label property or device node name (= repeats MTD OF partition standard) and seeks for a named gen_pool registered by device of the parent device node. The main idea of the change is to allow registration of independent gen_pools under the same umbrella device, say "partitions" on "storage device", the original functionality of one "partition" per "storage device" is untouched.

This change modifies gen_pool_get() and devm_gen_pool_create() client interfaces adding one more argument "name" of a gen_pool object. Due to implementation gen_pool_get() is capable to retrieve only one gen_pool associated with a device even if multiple gen_pools are created, fortunately right at the moment it is sufficient for the clients, hence provide NULL as a valid argument on both producer devm_gen_pool_create() and consumer gen_pool_get() sides. Because only one created gen_pool per device is addressable, explicitly add a restriction to devm_gen_pool_create() to create only one gen_pool per device, this implies two possible error codes returned by the function, account it on client side (only misc/sram). This completes client side changes related to genalloc updates.

If a PTE is unmapped and it's dirty then it was writable recently. Due to deferred TLB flushing, it's best to assume a writable TLB cache entry exists. With that assumption, the TLB must be flushed before any IO can start or the page is freed to avoid lost writes or data corruption. This patch defers flushing of potentially writable TLBs as long as possible.

An IPI is sent to flush remote TLBs when a page is unmapped that was potentially accesssed by other CPUs. There are many circumstances where this happens but the obvious one is kswapd reclaiming pages belonging to a running process as kswapd and the task are likely running on separate CPUs. On small machines, this is not a significant problem but as machine gets larger with more cores and more memory, the cost of these IPIs can be high. This patch uses a simple structure that tracks CPUs that potentially have TLB entries for pages being unmapped. When the unmapping is complete, the full TLB is flushed on the assumption that a refill cost is lower than flushing individual entries. Architectures wishing to do this must give the following guarantee. If a clean page is unmapped and not immediately flushed, the architecture must guarantee that a write to that linear address from a CPU with a cached TLB entry will trap a page fault. This is essentially what the kernel already depends on but the window is much larger with this patch applied and is worth highlighting. The architecture should consider whether the cost of the full TLB flush is higher than sending an IPI to flush each individual entry. An additional architecture helper called flush_tlb_local is required. It's a trivial wrapper with some accounting in the x86 case. The impact of this patch depends on the workload as measuring any benefit requires both mapped pages co-located on the LRU and memory pressure. The case with the biggest impact is multiple processes reading mapped pages taken from the vm-scalability test suite. The test case uses NR_CPU readers of mapped files that consume 10*RAM. Linear mapped reader on a 4-node machine with 64G RAM and 48 CPUs 4.2.0-rc1 4.2.0-rc1 vanilla flushfull-v7 Ops lru-file-mmap-read-elapsed 159.62 ( 0.00%) 120.68 ( 24.40%) Ops lru-file-mmap-read-time_range 30.59 ( 0.00%) 2.80 ( 90.85%) Ops lru-file-mmap-read-time_stddv 6.70 ( 0.00%) 0.64 ( 90.38%) 4.2.0-rc1 4.2.0-rc1 vanilla flushfull-v7 User 581.00 611.43 System 5804.93 4111.76 Elapsed 161.03 122.12 This is showing that the readers completed 24.40% faster with 29% less system CPU time. From vmstats, it is known that the vanilla kernel was interrupted roughly 900K times per second during the steady phase of the test and the patched kernel was interrupts 180K times per second. The impact is lower on a single socket machine. 4.2.0-rc1 4.2.0-rc1 vanilla flushfull-v7 Ops lru-file-mmap-read-elapsed 25.33 ( 0.00%) 20.38 ( 19.54%) Ops lru-file-mmap-read-time_range 0.91 ( 0.00%) 1.44 (-58.24%) Ops lru-file-mmap-read-time_stddv 0.28 ( 0.00%) 0.47 (-65.34%) 4.2.0-rc1 4.2.0-rc1 vanilla flushfull-v7 User 58.09 57.64 System 111.82 76.56 Elapsed 27.29 22.55 It's still a noticeable improvement with vmstat showing interrupts went from roughly 500K per second to 45K per second. The patch will have no impact on workloads with no memory pressure or have relatively few mapped pages. It will have an unpredictable impact on the workload running on the CPU being flushed as it'll depend on how many TLB entries need to be refilled and how long that takes. Worst case, the TLB will be completely cleared of active entries when the target PFNs were not resident at all.

When unmapping pages it is necessary to flush the TLB. If that page was accessed by another CPU then an IPI is used to flush the remote CPU. That is a lot of IPIs if kswapd is scanning and unmapping >100K pages per second. There already is a window between when a page is unmapped and when it is TLB flushed. This series increases the window so multiple pages can be flushed using a single IPI. This should be safe or the kernel is hosed already. Patch 1 simply made the rest of the series easier to write as ftrace could identify all the senders of TLB flush IPIS. Patch 2 tracks what CPUs potentially map a PFN and then sends an IPI to flush the entire TLB. Patch 3 tracks when there potentially are writable TLB entries that need to be batched differently Patch 4 increases SWAP_CLUSTER_MAX to further batch flushes The performance impact is documented in the changelogs but in the optimistic case on a 4-socket machine the full series reduces interrupts from 900K interrupts/second to 60K interrupts/second. This patch (of 4): It is easy to trace when an IPI is received to flush a TLB but harder to detect what event sent it. This patch makes it easy to identify the source of IPIs being transmitted for TLB flushes on x86.
