2019-03-16Merge tag 'devdax-for-5.1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimmLinus Torvalds1-0/+22
Pull device-dax updates from Dan Williams: "New device-dax infrastructure to allow persistent memory and other "reserved" / performance differentiated memories, to be assigned to the core-mm as "System RAM". Some users want to use persistent memory as additional volatile memory. They are willing to cope with potential performance differences, for example between DRAM and 3D Xpoint, and want to use typical Linux memory management apis rather than a userspace memory allocator layered over an mmap() of a dax file. The administration model is to decide how much Persistent Memory (pmem) to use as System RAM, create a device-dax-mode namespace of that size, and then assign it to the core-mm. The rationale for device-dax is that it is a generic memory-mapping driver that can be layered over any "special purpose" memory, not just pmem. On subsequent boots udev rules can be used to restore the memory assignment. One implication of using pmem as RAM is that mlock() no longer keeps data off persistent media. For this reason it is recommended to enable NVDIMM Security (previously merged for 5.0) to encrypt pmem contents at rest. We considered making this recommendation an actively enforced requirement, but in the end decided to leave it as a distribution / administrator policy to allow for emulation and test environments that lack security capable NVDIMMs. Summary: - Replace the /sys/class/dax device model with /sys/bus/dax, and include a compat driver so distributions can opt-in to the new ABI. - Allow for an alternative driver for the device-dax address-range - Introduce the 'kmem' driver to hotplug / assign a device-dax address-range to the core-mm. - Arrange for the device-dax target-node to be onlined so that the newly added memory range can be uniquely referenced by numa apis" NOTE! I'm not entirely happy with the whole "PMEM as RAM" model because we currently have special - and very annoying rules in the kernel about accessing PMEM only with the "MC safe" accessors, because machine checks inside the regular repeat string copy functions can be fatal in some (not described) circumstances. And apparently the PMEM modules can cause that a lot more than regular RAM. The argument is that this happens because PMEM doesn't necessarily get scrubbed at boot like RAM does, but that is planned to be added for the user space tooling. Quoting Dan from another email: "The exposure can be reduced in the volatile-RAM case by scanning for and clearing errors before it is onlined as RAM. The userspace tooling for that can be in place before v5.1-final. There's also runtime notifications of errors via acpi_nfit_uc_error_notify() from background scrubbers on the DIMM devices. With that mechanism the kernel could proactively clear newly discovered poison in the volatile case, but that would be additional development more suitable for v5.2. I understand the concern, and the need to highlight this issue by tapping the brakes on feature development, but I don't see PMEM as RAM making the situation worse when the exposure is also there via DAX in the PMEM case. Volatile-RAM is arguably a safer use case since it's possible to repair pages where the persistent case needs active application coordination" * tag 'devdax-for-5.1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm: device-dax: "Hotplug" persistent memory for use like normal RAM mm/resource: Let walk_system_ram_range() search child resources mm/memory-hotplug: Allow memory resources to be children mm/resource: Move HMM pr_debug() deeper into resource code mm/resource: Return real error codes from walk failures device-dax: Add a 'modalias' attribute to DAX 'bus' devices device-dax: Add a 'target_node' attribute device-dax: Auto-bind device after successful new_id acpi/nfit, device-dax: Identify differentiated memory with a unique numa-node device-dax: Add /sys/class/dax backwards compatibility device-dax: Add support for a dax override driver device-dax: Move resource pinning+mapping into the common driver device-dax: Introduce bus + driver model device-dax: Start defining a dax bus model device-dax: Remove multi-resource infrastructure device-dax: Kill dax_region base device-dax: Kill dax_region ida

This patch add the sysfs and hwmon entries that are exposed by the driver. Goya has several sensors, from various categories such as temperature, voltage, current, etc. The driver exposes those sensors in the standard hwmon mechanism. In addition, the driver exposes a couple of interfaces in sysfs, both for configuration and for providing status of the device or driver. The configuration attributes is for Power Management: - Automatic or manual - Frequency value when moving to high frequency mode - Maximum power the device is allowed to consume The rest of the attributes are read-only and provide the following information: - Versions of the various firmwares running on the device - Contents of the device's EEPROM - The device type (currently only Goya is supported) - PCI address of the device (to allow user-space to connect between /dev/hlX to PCI address) - Status of the device (operational, malfunction, in_reset) - How many processes are open on the device's file Reviewed-by: Mike Rapoport <rppt@linux.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Oded Gabbay <oded.gabbay@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
2019-02-14Drivers: hv: vmbus: Expose counters for interrupts and full conditionsKimberly Brown1-0/+33
Counter values for per-channel interrupts and ring buffer full conditions are useful for investigating performance. Expose counters in sysfs for 2 types of guest to host interrupts: 1) Interrupts caused by the channel's outbound ring buffer transitioning from empty to not empty 2) Interrupts caused by the channel's inbound ring buffer transitioning from full to not full while a packet is waiting for enough buffer space to become available Expose 2 counters in sysfs for the number of times that write operations encountered a full outbound ring buffer: 1) The total number of write operations that encountered a full condition 2) The number of write operations that were the first to encounter a full condition Increment the outbound full condition counters in the hv_ringbuffer_write() function because, for most drivers, a full outbound ring buffer is detected in that function. Also increment the outbound full condition counters in the set_channel_pending_send_size() function. In the hv_sock driver, a full outbound ring buffer is detected and set_channel_pending_send_size() is called before hv_ringbuffer_write() is called. I tested this patch by confirming that the sysfs files were created and observing the counter values. The values seemed to increase by a reasonable amount when the Hyper-v related drivers were in use.

Jonathan writes: First set of new device support, features and cleanup for IIO in the 5.1 cycle A number of interesting new devices supported plus a good set of staging cleanup including one graduation and one drop. New device support * ad56886 - Add support for AD5674R/AD5679R with some minor driver changes to support more channels. * ad7768 - New driver and dt bindings for this 24 bit ADC. * max44009 - New driver and dt bindings for this ambient light sensor. * mpu6050 - Support the ICM 20602 IMU. Minor tweaks due to slightly different register map. * NPCM adc - New driver and dt bindings for this BMC ADC. * Sensiron SGP30 - Modifiers for ethanol and H2. - New driver and dt bindings. - Follow patch added self cleaning support. * Sensiron SPS30 - New channel type for mass concentration. - New driver and bindings. - Minor tidy up patch followed (drop fmt specifier as unused) * st_pressure - lps22hh support. ID plus information structures and dt bindings. * ti-ads124s08 - Add binding doc and driver. Staging graduations * ad7606 driver and bindings. Staging drops * ad7152 CDC driver dropped. This part is near EoL and no one is known to be using it. If anyone surfaces obviously we can bring the driver back. If not, good to drop it to avoid wasting anyone's time cleaning it up. New features * bme680 - DT support and bindings doc. * isl29018 - Add regulator for VCC. * mag3110 - Add regulators for supplies. * meson-saradc - Support the temperature sensors of more SoCs. * mma8452 - Add regulators for power suplies and binding docs to reflect them. * st-accel - Support the undocumented but it seems fairly common _ONT ACPI method to specify orientation of the sensor. Cleanup, minor fixes and fixes for staging driver that have been broken a long time * ad5933 - Drop platform data alternative to specifying the reference voltage using a regulator. - Use the clock framework to contorl the reference clock. - Add a DT binding doc to cover the defacto binding. * ad7280a - Split up some big functions to improve readability. * ad7606 - Allow for timeout if interrupt never occurs. - Use devm functions to simplify probe and remove. - Use the find_closest macro to avoid need for precise values from userspace. - Add missing vendor prefixes for various DT properties. Note the driver is in staging still and there are no known devicetrees. - Add explict OF device ID table. - Simplify the Kconfig choices - Change to a threaded IRQ. - SPDX and simple stype fixes. * ad7816 - Drop unnecessary variable init. * ad9523 - Check a return value that was ignored. * ad9833 - Drop platform data.

2019-01-08zram: idle writeback fixes and cleanupMinchan Kim1-2/+9
This patch includes some fixes and cleanup for idle-page writeback. 1. writeback_limit interface Now writeback_limit interface is rather conusing. For example, once writeback limit budget is exausted, admin can see 0 from /sys/block/zramX/writeback_limit which is same semantic with disable writeback_limit at this moment. IOW, admin cannot tell that zero came from disable writeback limit or exausted writeback limit. To make the interface clear, let's sepatate enable of writeback limit to another knob - /sys/block/zram0/writeback_limit_enable * before: while true : # to re-enable writeback limit once previous one is used up echo 0 > /sys/block/zram0/writeback_limit echo $((200<<20)) > /sys/block/zram0/writeback_limit .. .. # used up the writeback limit budget * new # To enable writeback limit, from the beginning, admin should # enable it. echo $((200<<20)) > /sys/block/zram0/writeback_limit echo 1 > /sys/block/zram/0/writeback_limit_enable while true : echo $((200<<20)) > /sys/block/zram0/writeback_limit .. .. # used up the writeback limit budget It's much strightforward. 2. fix condition check idle/huge writeback mode check The mode in writeback_store is not bit opeartion any more so no need to use bit operations. Furthermore, current condition check is broken in that it does writeback every pages regardless of huge/idle. 3. clean up idle_store No need to use goto.

2018-12-28zram: writeback throttleMinchan Kim1-0/+9
If there are lots of write IO with flash device, it could have a wearout problem of storage. To overcome the problem, admin needs to design write limitation to guarantee flash health for entire product life. This patch creates a new knob "writeback_limit" for zram. writeback_limit's default value is 0 so that it doesn't limit any writeback. If admin want to measure writeback count in a certain period, he could know it via /sys/block/zram0/bd_stat's 3rd column. If admin want to limit writeback as per-day 400M, he could do it like below. MB_SHIFT=20 4K_SHIFT=12 echo $((400<<MB_SHIFT>>4K_SHIFT)) > \ /sys/block/zram0/writeback_limit. If admin want to allow further write again, he could do it like below echo 0 > /sys/block/zram0/writeback_limit If admin want to see remaining writeback budget, cat /sys/block/zram0/writeback_limit The writeback_limit count will reset whenever you reset zram (e.g., system reboot, echo 1 > /sys/block/zramX/reset) so keeping how many of writeback happened until you reset the zram to allocate extra writeback budget in next setting is user's job.

2018-12-28zram: add bd_stat statisticsMinchan Kim1-0/+8
bd_stat represents things that happened in the backing device. Currently it supports bd_counts, bd_reads and bd_writes which are helpful to understand wearout of flash and memory saving.

2018-12-28zram: support idle/huge page writebackMinchan Kim1-0/+7
Add a new feature "zram idle/huge page writeback". In the zram-swap use case, zram usually has many idle/huge swap pages. It's pointless to keep them in memory (ie, zram). To solve this problem, this feature introduces idle/huge page writeback to the backing device so the goal is to save more memory space on embedded systems. Normal sequence to use idle/huge page writeback feature is as follows, while (1) { # mark allocated zram slot to idle echo all > /sys/block/zram0/idle # leave system working for several hours # Unless there is no access for some blocks on zram, # they are still IDLE marked pages. echo "idle" > /sys/block/zram0/writeback or/and echo "huge" > /sys/block/zram0/writeback # write the IDLE or/and huge marked slot into backing device # and free the memory. } Per the discussion at https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20181122065926.GG3441@jagdpanzerIV/T/#u, This patch removes direct incommpressibe page writeback feature (d2afd25114f4 ("zram: write incompressible pages to backing device")). Below concerns from Sergey: == &< == "IDLE writeback" is superior to "incompressible writeback". "incompressible writeback" is completely unpredictable and uncontrollable; it depens on data patterns and compression algorithms. While "IDLE writeback" is predictable. I even suspect, that, *ideally*, we can remove "incompressible writeback". "IDLE pages" is a super set which also includes "incompressible" pages. So, technically, we still can do "incompressible writeback" from "IDLE writeback" path; but a much more reasonable one, based on a page idling period. I understand that you want to keep "direct incompressible writeback" around. ZRAM is especially popular on devices which do suffer from flash wearout, so I can see "incompressible writeback" path becoming a dead code, long term. == &< == Below concerns from Minchan: == &< == My concern is if we enable CONFIG_ZRAM_WRITEBACK in this implementation, both hugepage/idlepage writeck will turn on. However someuser want to enable only idlepage writeback so we need to introduce turn on/off knob for hugepage or new CONFIG_ZRAM_IDLEPAGE_WRITEBACK for those usecase. I don't want to make it complicated *if possible*. Long term, I imagine we need to make VM aware of new swap hierarchy a little bit different with as-is. For example, first high priority swap can return -EIO or -ENOCOMP, swap try to fallback to next lower priority swap device. With that, hugepage writeback will work tranparently. So we could regard it as regression because incompressible pages doesn't go to backing storage automatically. Instead, user should do it via "echo huge" > /sys/block/zram/writeback" manually. == &< == Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20181127055429.251614-6-minchan@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Minchan Kim <minchan@kernel.org> Reviewed-by: Joey Pabalinas <joeypabalinas@gmail.com> Reviewed-by: Sergey Senozhatsky <sergey.senozhatsky@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2018-12-28zram: introduce ZRAM_IDLE flagMinchan Kim1-0/+8
To support idle page writeback with upcoming patches, this patch introduces a new ZRAM_IDLE flag. Userspace can mark zram slots as "idle" via "echo all > /sys/block/zramX/idle" which marks every allocated zram slot as ZRAM_IDLE. User could see it by /sys/kernel/debug/zram/zram0/block_state. 300 75.033841 ...i 301 63.806904 s..i 302 63.806919 ..hi Once there is IO for the slot, the mark will be disappeared. 300 75.033841 ... 301 63.806904 s..i 302 63.806919 ..hi Therefore, 300th block is idle zpage. With this feature, user can how many zram has idle pages which are waste of memory.
