2019-09-04percpu: Use struct_size() helperGustavo A. R. Silva1-1/+1
One of the more common cases of allocation size calculations is finding the size of a structure that has a zero-sized array at the end, along with memory for some number of elements for that array. For example: struct pcpu_alloc_info { ... struct pcpu_group_info groups[]; }; Make use of the struct_size() helper instead of an open-coded version in order to avoid any potential type mistakes. So, replace the following form: sizeof(*ai) + nr_groups * sizeof(ai->groups[0]) with: struct_size(ai, groups, nr_groups) This code was detected with the help of Coccinelle. Signed-off-by: Gustavo A.

2019-05-08percpu: remove spurious lock dependency between percpu and schedJohn Sperbeck1-1/+5
In free_percpu() we sometimes call pcpu_schedule_balance_work() to queue a work item (which does a wakeup) while holding pcpu_lock. This creates an unnecessary lock dependency between pcpu_lock and the scheduler's pi_lock. There are other places where we call pcpu_schedule_balance_work() without hold pcpu_lock, and this case doesn't need to be different. Moving the call outside the lock prevents the following lockdep splat when running tools/testing/selftests/bpf/{test_maps,test_progs} in sequence with lockdep enabled: ====================================================== WARNING: possible circular locking dependency detected 5.1.0-dbg-DEV #1 Not tainted ------------------------------------------------------ kworker/23:255/18872 is trying to acquire lock: 000000000bc79290 (&(&pool->lock)->rlock){-.-.}, at: __queue_work+0xb2/0x520 but task is already holding lock: 00000000e3e7a6aa (pcpu_lock){..-.}, at: free_percpu+0x36/0x260 which lock already depends on the new lock. the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is: -> #4 (pcpu_lock){..-.}: lock_acquire+0x9e/0x180 _raw_spin_lock_irqsave+0x3a/0x50 pcpu_alloc+0xfa/0x780 __alloc_percpu_gfp+0x12/0x20 alloc_htab_elem+0x184/0x2b0 __htab_percpu_map_update_elem+0x252/0x290 bpf_percpu_hash_update+0x7c/0x130 __do_sys_bpf+0x1912/0x1be0 __x64_sys_bpf+0x1a/0x20 do_syscall_64+0x59/0x400 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x49/0xbe -> #3 (&htab->buckets[i].lock){....}: lock_acquire+0x9e/0x180 _raw_spin_lock_irqsave+0x3a/0x50 htab_map_update_elem+0x1af/0x3a0 -> #2 (&rq->lock){-.-.}: lock_acquire+0x9e/0x180 _raw_spin_lock+0x2f/0x40 task_fork_fair+0x37/0x160 sched_fork+0x211/0x310 copy_process.part.43+0x7b1/0x2160 _do_fork+0xda/0x6b0 kernel_thread+0x29/0x30 rest_init+0x22/0x260 arch_call_rest_init+0xe/0x10 start_kernel+0x4fd/0x520 x86_64_start_reservations+0x24/0x26 x86_64_start_kernel+0x6f/0x72 secondary_startup_64+0xa4/0xb0 -> #1 (&p->pi_lock){-.-.}: lock_acquire+0x9e/0x180 _raw_spin_lock_irqsave+0x3a/0x50 try_to_wake_up+0x41/0x600 wake_up_process+0x15/0x20 create_worker+0x16b/0x1e0 workqueue_init+0x279/0x2ee kernel_init_freeable+0xf7/0x288 kernel_init+0xf/0x180 ret_from_fork+0x24/0x30 -> #0 (&(&pool->lock)->rlock){-.-.}: __lock_acquire+0x101f/0x12a0 lock_acquire+0x9e/0x180 _raw_spin_lock+0x2f/0x40 __queue_work+0xb2/0x520 queue_work_on+0x38/0x80 free_percpu+0x221/0x260 pcpu_freelist_destroy+0x11/0x20 stack_map_free+0x2a/0x40 bpf_map_free_deferred+0x3c/0x50 process_one_work+0x1f7/0x580 worker_thread+0x54/0x410 kthread+0x10f/0x150 ret_from_fork+0x24/0x30 other info that might help us debug this: Chain exists of: &(&pool->lock)->rlock --> &htab->buckets[i].lock --> pcpu_lock Possible unsafe locking scenario: CPU0 CPU1 ---- ---- lock(pcpu_lock); lock(&htab->buckets[i].lock); lock(pcpu_lock); lock(&(&pool->lock)->rlock); *** DEADLOCK *** 3 locks held by kworker/23:255/18872: #0: 00000000b36a6e16 ((wq_completion)events){+.+.}, at: process_one_work+0x17a/0x580 #1: 00000000dfd966f0 ((work_completion)(&map->work)){+.+.}, at: process_one_work+0x17a/0x580 #2: 00000000e3e7a6aa (pcpu_lock){..-.}, at: free_percpu+0x36/0x260 stack backtrace: CPU: 23 PID: 18872 Comm: kworker/23:255 Not tainted 5.1.0-dbg-DEV #1 Hardware name: ...

2019-03-13percpu: use chunk scan_hint to skip some scanningDennis Zhou1-9/+27
Just like blocks, chunks now maintain a scan_hint. This can be used to skip some scanning by promoting the scan_hint to be the contig_hint. The chunk's scan_hint is primarily updated on the backside and relies on full scanning when a block becomes free or the free region spans across blocks.

2019-03-13percpu: convert chunk hints to be based on pcpu_block_mdDennis Zhou1-67/+53
As mentioned in the last patch, a chunk's hints are no different than a block just responsible for more bits. This converts chunk level hints to use a pcpu_block_md to maintain them. This lets us reuse the same hint helper functions as a block. The left_free and right_free are unused by the chunk's pcpu_block_md.

2019-03-13percpu: make pcpu_block_md genericDennis Zhou1-7/+13
In reality, a chunk is just a block covering a larger number of bits. The hints themselves are one in the same.

2019-03-13percpu: use block scan_hint to only scan forwardDennis Zhou1-6/+17
Blocks now remember the latest scan_hint. This can be used on the allocation path as when a contig_hint is broken, we can promote the scan_hint to the contig_hint and scan forward from there. This works because pcpu_block_refresh_hint() is only called on the allocation path while block free regions are updated manually in pcpu_block_update_hint_free().

2019-03-13percpu: remember largest area skipped during allocationDennis Zhou1-2/+99
Percpu allocations attempt to do first fit by scanning forward from the first_free of a block. However, fragmentation from allocation requests can cause holes not seen by block hint update functions. To address this, create a local version of bitmap_find_next_zero_area_off() that remembers the largest area skipped over. The caveat is that it only sees regions skipped over due to not fitting, not regions skipped due to alignment. Prior to updating the scan_hint, a scan backwards is done to try and recover free bits skipped due to alignment. While this can cause scanning to miss earlier possible free areas, smaller allocations will eventually fill those holes due to first fit. Signed-off-by: Dennis Zhou <dennis@kernel.org>
2019-03-13percpu: add block level scan_hintDennis Zhou1-7/+94
Fragmentation can cause both blocks and chunks to have an early first_firee bit available, but only able to satisfy allocations much later on. This patch introduces a scan_hint to help mitigate some unnecessary scanning. The scan_hint remembers the largest area prior to the contig_hint. If the contig_hint == scan_hint, then scan_hint_start > contig_hint_start. This is necessary for scan_hint discovery when refreshing a block.

2019-03-13percpu: set PCPU_BITMAP_BLOCK_SIZE to PAGE_SIZEDennis Zhou1-66/+44
Previously, block size was flexible based on the constraint that the GCD(PCPU_BITMAP_BLOCK_SIZE, PAGE_SIZE) > 1. However, this carried the overhead that keeping a floating number of populated free pages required scanning over the free regions of a chunk. Setting the block size to be fixed at PAGE_SIZE lets us know when an empty page becomes used as we will break a full contig_hint of a block. This means we no longer have to scan the whole chunk upon breaking a contig_hint which empty page management piggybacked off. A later patch takes advantage of this to optimize the allocation path by only scanning forward using the scan_hint introduced later too.

2019-03-13percpu: relegate chunks unusable when failing small allocationsDennis Zhou1-9/+26
In certain cases, requestors of percpu memory may want specific alignments. However, it is possible to end up in situations where the contig_hint matches, but the alignment does not. This causes excess scanning of chunks that will fail. To prevent this, if a small allocation fails (< 32B), the chunk is moved to the empty list. Once an allocation is freed from that chunk, it is placed back into rotation. Signed-off-by: Dennis Zhou <dennis@kernel.org> Reviewed-by: Peng Fan <peng.fan@nxp.com>

2019-03-13percpu: introduce helper to determine if two regions overlapDennis Zhou1-4/+24
While block hints were always accurate, it's possible when spanning across blocks that we miss updating the chunk's contig_hint. Rather than rely on correctness of the boundaries of hints, do a full overlap comparison. A future patch introduces the scan_hint which makes the contig_hint slightly fuzzy as they can at times be smaller than the actual hint. Signed-off-by: Dennis Zhou <dennis@kernel.org>
2019-03-13percpu: do not search past bitmap when allocating an areaDennis Zhou1-1/+2
pcpu_find_block_fit() guarantees that a fit is found within PCPU_BITMAP_BLOCK_BITS. Iteration is used to determine the first fit as it compares against the block's contig_hint. This can lead to incorrectly scanning past the end of the bitmap. The behavior was okay given the check after for bit_off >= end and the correctness of the hints from pcpu_find_block_fit(). This patch fixes this by bounding the end offset by the number of bits in a chunk. Signed-off-by: Dennis Zhou <dennis@kernel.org> Reviewed-by: Peng Fan <peng.fan@nxp.com>
2019-03-13percpu: update free path with correct new free regionDennis Zhou1-1/+1
When updating the chunk's contig_hint on the free path of a hint that does not touch the page boundaries, it was incorrectly using the starting offset of the free region and the block's contig_hint. This could lead to incorrect assumptions about fit given a size and better alignment of the start. Fix this by using (end - start) as this is only called when updating a hint within a block.

2018-10-31memblock: stop using implicit alignment to SMP_CACHE_BYTESMike Rapoport1-18/+20
When a memblock allocation APIs are called with align = 0, the alignment is implicitly set to SMP_CACHE_BYTES. Implicit alignment is done deep in the memblock allocator and it can come as a surprise. Not that such an alignment would be wrong even when used incorrectly but it is better to be explicit for the sake of clarity and the prinicple of the least surprise. Replace all such uses of memblock APIs with the 'align' parameter explicitly set to SMP_CACHE_BYTES and stop implicit alignment assignment in the memblock internal allocation functions. For the case when memblock APIs are used via helper functions, e.g. like iommu_arena_new_node() in Alpha, the helper functions were detected with Coccinelle's help and then manually examined and updated where appropriate.

2018-08-22/proc/meminfo: add percpu populated pages countDennis Zhou (Facebook)1-0/+29
Currently, percpu memory only exposes allocation and utilization information via debugfs. This more or less is only really useful for understanding the fragmentation and allocation information at a per-chunk level with a few global counters. This is also gated behind a config. BPF and cgroup, for example, have seen an increase in use causing increased use of percpu memory. Let's make it easier for someone to identify how much memory is being used. This patch adds the "Percpu" stat to meminfo to more easily look up how much percpu memory is in use. This number includes the cost for all allocated backing pages and not just insight at the per a unit, per chunk level. Metadata is excluded. I think excluding metadata is fair because the backing memory scales with the numbere of cpus and can quickly outweigh the metadata. It also makes this calculation light.

Pul removal of obsolete architecture ports from Arnd Bergmann: "This removes the entire architecture code for blackfin, cris, frv, m32r, metag, mn10300, score, and tile, including the associated device drivers. I have been working with the (former) maintainers for each one to ensure that my interpretation was right and the code is definitely unused in mainline kernels. Many had fond memories of working on the respective ports to start with and getting them included in upstream, but also saw no point in keeping the port alive without any users. In the end, it seems that while the eight architectures are extremely different, they all suffered the same fate: There was one company in charge of an SoC line, a CPU microarchitecture and a software ecosystem, which was more costly than licensing newer off-the-shelf CPU cores from a third party (typically ARM, MIPS, or RISC-V). It seems that all the SoC product lines are still around, but have not used the custom CPU architectures for several years at this point. In contrast, CPU instruction sets that remain popular and have actively maintained kernel ports tend to all be used across multiple licensees. [ See the new nds32 port merged in the previous commit for the next generation of "one company in charge of an SoC line, a CPU microarchitecture and a software ecosystem" - Linus ] The removal came out of a discussion that is now documented at https://lwn.net/Articles/748074/. Unlike the original plans, I'm not marking any ports as deprecated but remove them all at once after I made sure that they are all unused. Some architectures (notably tile, mn10300, and blackfin) are still being shipped in products with old kernels, but those products will never be updated to newer kernel releases. After this series, we still have a few architectures without mainline gcc support: - unicore32 and hexagon both have very outdated gcc releases, but the maintainers promised to work on providing something newer. At least in case of hexagon, this will only be llvm, not gcc. - openrisc, risc-v and nds32 are still in the process of finishing their support or getting it added to mainline gcc in the first place. They all have patched gcc-7.3 ports that work to some degree, but complete upstream support won't happen before gcc-8.1. Csky posted their first kernel patch set last week, their situation will be similar [ Palmer Dabbelt points out that RISC-V support is in mainline gcc since gcc-7, although gcc-7.3.0 is the recommended minimum - Linus ]" This really says it all: 2498 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 467668 deletions(-) * tag 'arch-removal' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arnd/asm-generic: (74 commits) MAINTAINERS: UNICORE32: Change email account staging: iio: remove iio-trig-bfin-timer driver tty: hvc: remove tile driver tty: remove bfin_jtag_comm and hvc_bfin_jtag drivers serial: remove tile uart driver serial: remove m32r_sio driver serial: remove blackfin drivers serial: remove cris/etrax uart drivers usb: Remove Blackfin references in USB support usb: isp1362: remove blackfin arch glue usb: musb: remove blackfin port usb: host: remove tilegx platform glue pwm: remove pwm-bfin driver i2c: remove bfin-twi driver spi: remove blackfin related host drivers watchdog: remove bfin_wdt driver can: remove bfin_can driver mmc: remove bfin_sdh driver input: misc: remove blackfin rotary driver input: keyboard: remove bf54x driver ...

2018-02-18percpu: add __GFP_NORETRY semantics to the percpu balancing pathDennis Zhou1-17/+27
Percpu memory using the vmalloc area based chunk allocator lazily populates chunks by first requesting the full virtual address space required for the chunk and subsequently adding pages as allocations come through. To ensure atomic allocations can succeed, a workqueue item is used to maintain a minimum number of empty pages. In certain scenarios, such as reported in [1], it is possible that physical memory becomes quite scarce which can result in either a rather long time spent trying to find free pages or worse, a kernel panic. This patch adds support for __GFP_NORETRY and __GFP_NOWARN passing them through to the underlying allocators. This should prevent any unnecessary panics potentially caused by the workqueue item. The passing of gfp around is as additional flags rather than a full set of flags. The next patch will change these to caller passed semantics. V2: Added const modifier to gfp flags in the balance path. Removed an extra whitespace.

Commit 438a506180 ("percpu: don't forget to free the temporary struct pcpu_alloc_info") uncovered a problem on the CRIS architecture where the bootmem allocator is initialized with virtual addresses. Given it has: #define __va(x) ((void *)((unsigned long)(x) | 0x80000000)) then things just work out because the end result is the same whether you give this a physical or a virtual address. Untill you call memblock_free_early(__pa(address)) that is, because values from __pa() don't match with the virtual addresses stuffed in the bootmem allocator anymore. Avoid freeing the temporary pcpu_alloc_info memory on that architecture until they fix things up to let the kernel boot like it did before.

2017-10-19mm, percpu: add support for __GFP_NOWARN flagDaniel Borkmann1-5/+10
Add an option for pcpu_alloc() to support __GFP_NOWARN flag. Currently, we always throw a warning when size or alignment is unsupported (and also dump stack on failed allocation requests). The warning itself is harmless since we return NULL anyway for any failed request, which callers are required to handle anyway. However, it becomes harmful when panic_on_warn is set. The rationale for the WARN() in pcpu_alloc() is that it can be tracked when larger than supported allocation requests are made such that allocations limits can be tweaked if warranted. This makes sense for in-kernel users, however, there are users of pcpu allocator where allocation size is derived from user space requests, e.g. when creating BPF maps. In these cases, the requests should fail gracefully without throwing a splat. The current work-around was to check allocation size against the upper limit of PCPU_MIN_UNIT_SIZE from call-sites for bailing out prior to a call to pcpu_alloc() in order to avoid throwing the WARN(). This is bad in multiple ways since PCPU_MIN_UNIT_SIZE is an implementation detail, and having the checks on call-sites only complicates the code for no good reason. Thus, lets fix it generically by supporting the __GFP_NOWARN flag that users can then use with calling the __alloc_percpu_gfp() helper instead.

2017-09-28percpu: fix iteration to prevent skipping over blockDennis Zhou1-0/+4
The iterator functions pcpu_next_md_free_region and pcpu_next_fit_region use the block offset to determine if they have checked the area in the prior iteration. However, this causes an issue when the block offset is greater than subsequent block contig hints. If within the iterator it moves to check subsequent blocks, it may fail in the second predicate due to the block offset not being cleared. Thus, this causes the allocator to skip over blocks leading to false failures when allocating from the reserved chunk. While this happens in the general case as well, it will only fail if it cannot allocate a new chunk. This patch resets the block offset to 0 to pass the second predicate when checking subseqent blocks within the iterator function.

If the request can fit inside a block, it returns the first_free bit to start checking from to see if it can be fulfilled prior to the contig hint.

2017-07-26percpu: update free path to take advantage of contig hintsDennis Zhou (Facebook)1-3/+65
The bitmap allocator must keep metadata consistent. The easiest way is to scan after every allocation for each affected block and the entire chunk. This is rather expensive. The free path can take advantage of current contig hints to prevent scanning within the start and end block. If a scan is needed, it can be done by scanning backwards from the start and forwards from the end to identify the entire free area this can be combined with. The blocks can then be updated by some basic checks rather than complete block scans. A chunk scan happens when the freed area makes a page free, a block free, or spans across blocks. This is necessary as the contig hint at this point could span across blocks. The check uses the minimum of page size and the block size to allow for variable sized blocks. There is a tradeoff here with not updating after every free. It is possible a contig hint in one block can be merged with the contig hint in the next block. This means the contig hint can be off by up to a page. However, if the chunk's contig hint is contained in one block, the contig hint will be accurate.
