2019-06-13NTB: Introduce functions to calculate multi-port resource indexLogan Gunthorpe1-0/+70
When using multi-ports each port uses resources (dbs, msgs, mws, etc) on every other port. Creating a mapping for these resources such that each port has a corresponding resource on every other port is a bit tricky. Introduce the ntb_peer_resource_idx() function for this purpose. It returns the peer resource number that will correspond with the local peer index on the remote peer. Also, introduce ntb_peer_highest_mw_idx() which will use ntb_peer_resource_idx() but return the MW index starting with the highest index and working down.

2019-06-13NTB: Introduce helper functions to calculate logical port numberLogan Gunthorpe1-1/+52
This patch introduces the "Logical Port Number" which is similar to the "Port Number" in that it enumerates the ports in the system. The original (or Physical) "Port Number" can be any number used by the hardware to uniquely identify a port in the system. The "Logical Port Number" enumerates all ports in the system from 0 to the number of ports minus one. For example a system with 5 ports might have the following port numbers which would be enumerated thusly: Port Number: 1 2 5 7 116 Logical Port Number: 0 1 2 3 4 The logical port number is useful when calculating which resources to use for which peers. So we thus define two helper functions: ntb_logical_port_number() and ntb_peer_logical_port_number() which provide the "Logical Port Number" for the local port and any peer respectively.

2019-06-13PCI/switchtec: Add module parameter to request more interruptsLogan Gunthorpe1-2/+10
Seeing the we want to use more interrupts in the NTB MSI code we need to be able allocate more (sometimes virtual) interrupts in the switchtec driver. Therefore add a module parameter to request to allocate additional interrupts. This puts virtually no limit on the number of MSI interrupts available to NTB clients.

2019-06-13PCI/MSI: Support allocating virtual MSI interruptsLogan Gunthorpe3-9/+62
For NTB devices, we want to be able to trigger MSI interrupts through a memory window. In these cases we may want to use more interrupts than the NTB PCI device has available in its MSI-X table. We allow for this by creating a new 'virtual' interrupt. These interrupts are allocated as usual but are not programmed into the MSI-X table (as there may not be space for them). The MSI address and data will then handled through an NTB MSI library introduced later in this series.

2019-06-13ntb_hw_switchtec: Fix setup MW with failure bugJoey Zhang1-27/+39
Switchtec does not support setting multiple MWs simultaneously. The driver takes a hardware lock to ensure that two peers are not doing this simultaneously and it fails if someone else takes the lock. In most cases, this is fine as clients only setup the MWs once on one side of the link. However, there's a race condition when a re-initialization is caused by a link event. The driver will re-setup the shared memory window asynchronously and this races with the client setting up it's memory windows on the link up event. To fix this we ensure do the entire initialization in a work queue and signal the client once it's done.

2019-06-13NTB: ntb_transport: Ensure qp->tx_mw_dma_addr is initaliazedLogan Gunthorpe1-0/+1
Dan Carpenter's static checker reported: drivers/ntb/ntb_transport.c:1926 ntb_transport_create_queue() error: we previously assumed 'qp->tx_dma_chan' could be null (see line 1872) This is because the tx_mw_dma_addr is uninitialized in this function and may be incorrectly released using a NULL DMA channel. In practice this bug will not likely be seen. I'd guess you could hit this if you loaded ntb_netdev with use_dma=True, then unloaded it and loaded it again after setting the module parameter to use_dma=False. To fix this, we simply ensure that tx_mw_dma_addr is always initialized to zero. This is the safest in case any other part of the code operates on it if it is non-zero.

The issue is very similar to the fix in commit 6b0868c820ff ("mm/compaction.c: correct zone boundary handling when resetting pageblock skip hints"). When isolating free pages around a target pageblock, the boundary handling is off by one and can stray into the next pageblock. Triggering the syzbot error requires that the end of pageblock is section or zone aligned, and that the next section is unpopulated. A more subtle consequence of the bug is that pageblocks were being improperly used as migration targets which potentially hurts fragmentation avoidance in the long-term one page at a time. A debugging patch revealed that it's definitely possible to stray outside of a pageblock which is not intended. While syzbot cannot be used to verify this patch, it was confirmed that the debugging warning no longer triggers with this patch applied. It has also been confirmed that the THP allocation stress tests are not degraded by this patch.

2019-05-18mm/vmalloc.c: keep track of free blocks for vmap allocationUladzislau Rezki (Sony)2-247/+763
Patch series "improve vmap allocation", v3. Objective --------- Please have a look for the description at: https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/10/19/786 but let me also summarize it a bit here as well. The current implementation has O(N) complexity. Requests with different permissive parameters can lead to long allocation time. When i say "long" i mean milliseconds. Description ----------- This approach organizes the KVA memory layout into free areas of the 1-ULONG_MAX range, i.e. an allocation is done over free areas lookups, instead of finding a hole between two busy blocks. It allows to have lower number of objects which represent the free space, therefore to have less fragmented memory allocator. Because free blocks are always as large as possible. It uses the augment tree where all free areas are sorted in ascending order of va->va_start address in pair with linked list that provides O(1) access to prev/next elements. Since the tree is augment, we also maintain the "subtree_max_size" of VA that reflects a maximum available free block in its left or right sub-tree. Knowing that, we can easily traversal toward the lowest (left most path) free area. Allocation: ~O(log(N)) complexity. It is sequential allocation method therefore tends to maximize locality. The search is done until a first suitable block is large enough to encompass the requested parameters. Bigger areas are split. I copy paste here the description of how the area is split, since i described it in https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/10/19/786 <snip> A free block can be split by three different ways. Their names are FL_FIT_TYPE, LE_FIT_TYPE/RE_FIT_TYPE and NE_FIT_TYPE, i.e. they correspond to how requested size and alignment fit to a free block. FL_FIT_TYPE - in this case a free block is just removed from the free list/tree because it fully fits. Comparing with current design there is an extra work with rb-tree updating. LE_FIT_TYPE/RE_FIT_TYPE - left/right edges fit. In this case what we do is just cutting a free block. It is as fast as a current design. Most of the vmalloc allocations just end up with this case, because the edge is always aligned to 1. NE_FIT_TYPE - Is much less common case. Basically it happens when requested size and alignment does not fit left nor right edges, i.e. it is between them. In this case during splitting we have to build a remaining left free area and place it back to the free list/tree. Comparing with current design there are two extra steps. First one is we have to allocate a new vmap_area structure. Second one we have to insert that remaining free block to the address sorted list/tree. In order to optimize a first case there is a cache with free_vmap objects. Instead of allocating from slab we just take an object from the cache and reuse it. Second one is pretty optimized. Since we know a start point in the tree we do not do a search from the top. Instead a traversal begins from a rb-tree node we split. <snip> De-allocation. ~O(log(N)) complexity. An area is not inserted straight away to the tree/list, instead we identify the spot first, checking if it can be merged around neighbors. The list provides O(1) access to prev/next, so it is pretty fast to check it. Summarizing. If merged then large coalesced areas are created, if not the area is just linked making more fragments. There is one more thing that i should mention here. After modification of VA node, its subtree_max_size is updated if it was/is the biggest area in its left or right sub-tree. Apart of that it can also be populated back to upper levels to fix the tree. For more details please have a look at the __augment_tree_propagate_from() function and the description. Tests and stressing ------------------- I use the "test_vmalloc.sh" test driver available under "tools/testing/selftests/vm/" since 5.1-rc1 kernel. Just trigger "sudo ./test_vmalloc.sh" to find out how to deal with it. Tested on different platforms including x86_64/i686/ARM64/x86_64_NUMA. Regarding last one, i do not have any physical access to NUMA system, therefore i emulated it. The time of stressing is days. If you run the test driver in "stress mode", you also need the patch that is in Andrew's tree but not in Linux 5.1-rc1. So, please apply it: http://git.cmpxchg.org/cgit.cgi/linux-mmotm.git/commit/?id=e0cf7749bade6da318e98e934a24d8b62fab512c After massive testing, i have not identified any problems like memory leaks, crashes or kernel panics. I find it stable, but more testing would be good. Performance analysis -------------------- I have used two systems to test. One is i5-3320M CPU @ 2.60GHz and another is HiKey960(arm64) board. i5-3320M runs on 4.20 kernel, whereas Hikey960 uses 4.15 kernel. I have both system which could run on 5.1-rc1 as well, but the results have not been ready by time i an writing this. Currently it consist of 8 tests. There are three of them which correspond to different types of splitting(to compare with default). We have 3 ones(see above). Another 5 do allocations in different conditions. a) sudo ./test_vmalloc.sh performance When the test driver is run in "performance" mode, it runs all available tests pinned to first online CPU with sequential execution test order. We do it in order to get stable and repeatable results. Take a look at time difference in "long_busy_list_alloc_test". It is not surprising because the worst case is O(N). # i5-3320M How many cycles all tests took: CPU0=646919905370(default) cycles vs CPU0=193290498550(patched) cycles # See detailed table with results here: ftp://vps418301.ovh.net/incoming/vmap_test_results_v2/i5-3320M_performance_default.txt ftp://vps418301.ovh.net/incoming/vmap_test_results_v2/i5-3320M_performance_patched.txt # Hikey960 8x CPUs How many cycles all tests took: CPU0=3478683207 cycles vs CPU0=463767978 cycles # See detailed table with results here: ftp://vps418301.ovh.net/incoming/vmap_test_results_v2/HiKey960_performance_default.txt ftp://vps418301.ovh.net/incoming/vmap_test_results_v2/HiKey960_performance_patched.txt b) time sudo ./test_vmalloc.sh test_repeat_count=1 With this configuration, all tests are run on all available online CPUs. Before running each CPU shuffles its tests execution order. It gives random allocation behaviour. So it is rough comparison, but it puts in the picture for sure. # i5-3320M <default> vs <patched> real 101m22.813s real 0m56.805s user 0m0.011s user 0m0.015s sys 0m5.076s sys 0m0.023s # See detailed table with results here: ftp://vps418301.ovh.net/incoming/vmap_test_results_v2/i5-3320M_test_repeat_count_1_default.txt ftp://vps418301.ovh.net/incoming/vmap_test_results_v2/i5-3320M_test_repeat_count_1_patched.txt # Hikey960 8x CPUs <default> vs <patched> real unknown real 4m25.214s user unknown user 0m0.011s sys unknown sys 0m0.670s I did not manage to complete this test on "default Hikey960" kernel version. After 24 hours it was still running, therefore i had to cancel it. That is why real/user/sys are "unknown". This patch (of 3): Currently an allocation of the new vmap area is done over busy list iteration(complexity O(n)) until a suitable hole is found between two busy areas. Therefore each new allocation causes the list being grown. Due to over fragmented list and different permissive parameters an allocation can take a long time. For example on embedded devices it is milliseconds. This patch organizes the KVA memory layout into free areas of the 1-ULONG_MAX range. It uses an augment red-black tree that keeps blocks sorted by their offsets in pair with linked list keeping the free space in order of increasing addresses. Nodes are augmented with the size of the maximum available free block in its left or right sub-tree. Thus, that allows to take a decision and traversal toward the block that will fit and will have the lowest start address, i.e. it is sequential allocation. Allocation: to allocate a new block a search is done over the tree until a suitable lowest(left most) block is large enough to encompass: the requested size, alignment and vstart point. If the block is bigger than requested size - it is split. De-allocation: when a busy vmap area is freed it can either be merged or inserted to the tree. Red-black tree allows efficiently find a spot whereas a linked list provides a constant-time access to previous and next blocks to check if merging can be done. In case of merging of de-allocated memory chunk a large coalesced area is created.

2019-05-18kbuild: check uniqueness of module namesMasahiro Yamada2-0/+17
In the recent build test of linux-next, Stephen saw a build error caused by a broken .tmp_versions/*.mod file: https://lkml.org/lkml/2019/5/13/991 drivers/net/phy/asix.ko and drivers/net/usb/asix.ko have the same basename, and there is a race in generating .tmp_versions/asix.mod Kbuild has not checked this before, and it suddenly shows up with obscure error messages when this kind of race occurs. Non-unique module names cause various sort of problems, but it is not trivial to catch them by eyes. Hence, this script. It checks not only real modules, but also built-in modules (i.e. controlled by tristate CONFIG option, but currently compiled with =y). Non-unique names for built-in modules also cause problems because /sys/modules/ would fall over. For the latest kernel, I tested "make allmodconfig all" (or more quickly "make allyesconfig modules"), and it detected the following: warning: same basename if the following are built as modules: drivers/regulator/88pm800.ko drivers/mfd/88pm800.ko warning: same basename if the following are built as modules: drivers/gpu/drm/bridge/adv7511/adv7511.ko drivers/media/i2c/adv7511.ko warning: same basename if the following are built as modules: drivers/net/phy/asix.ko drivers/net/usb/asix.ko warning: same basename if the following are built as modules: fs/coda/coda.ko drivers/media/platform/coda/coda.ko warning: same basename if the following are built as modules: drivers/net/phy/realtek.ko drivers/net/dsa/realtek.ko Reported-by: Stephen Rothwell <sfr@canb.auug.org.au> Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@socionext.com> Reviewed-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org> Reviewed-by: Stephen Rothwell <sfr@canb.auug.org.au> Reviewed-by: Lucas De Marchi <lucas.demarchi@intel.com>

The 'addtree' and 'flags' in scripts/Kbuild.include are so compilecated and ugly. As I mentioned in [1], Kbuild should stop automatic prefixing of header search path options. I fixed up (almost) all Makefiles in the kernel. Now 'addtree' and 'flags' have been removed. Kbuild still caters to add $(srctree)/$(src) and $(objtree)/$(obj) to the header search path for O= building, but never touches extra compiler options from ccflags-y etc. [1]: https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/9632347/ Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@socionext.com>

2019-05-18kbuild: turn auto.conf.cmd into a mandatory include fileMasahiro Yamada1-1/+1
syncconfig is responsible for keeping auto.conf up-to-date, so if it fails for any reason, the build must be terminated immediately. However, since commit 9390dff66a52 ("kbuild: invoke syncconfig if include/config/auto.conf.cmd is missing"), Kbuild continues running even after syncconfig fails. You can confirm this by intentionally making syncconfig error out: diff --git a/scripts/kconfig/confdata.c b/scripts/kconfig/confdata.c index 08ba146..307b9de 100644 --- a/scripts/kconfig/confdata.c +++ b/scripts/kconfig/confdata.c @@ -1023,6 +1023,9 @@ int conf_write_autoconf(int overwrite) FILE *out, *tristate, *out_h; int i; + if (overwrite) + return 1; + if (!overwrite && is_present(autoconf_name)) return 0; Then, syncconfig fails, but Make would not stop: $ make -s mrproper allyesconfig defconfig $ make scripts/kconfig/conf --syncconfig Kconfig *** Error during sync of the configuration. make[2]: *** [scripts/kconfig/Makefile;69: syncconfig] Error 1 make[1]: *** [Makefile;557: syncconfig] Error 2 make: *** [include/config/auto.conf.cmd] Deleting file 'include/config/tristate.conf' make: Failed to remake makefile 'include/config/auto.conf'.

As far as examined, auto.conf.cmd is the target in question when this rule is invoked. It is probably because auto.conf.cmd is included below the inclusion of auto.conf. The inclusion of auto.conf is mandatory, while that of auto.conf.cmd is optional. GNU Make does not care about the failure in the process of updating optional include files. I filed this issue (https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?56301) in case this behavior could be improved somehow in future releases of GNU Make. Anyway, it is quite easy to fix our Makefile. Given that auto.conf is already a mandatory include file, there is no reason to stick auto.conf.cmd optional. Make it mandatory as well.

2019-05-18sh: exclude vmlinux.scr from .gitignore patternMasahiro Yamada1-0/+1
arch/sh/boot/.gitignore has the pattern "vmlinux*"; this is effective not only for the current directory, but also for any sub-directories. So, from the point of .gitignore grammar, the following check-in files are also considered to be ignored: arch/sh/boot/compressed/vmlinux.scr arch/sh/boot/romimage/vmlinux.scr As the manual gitignore(5) says "Files already tracked by Git are not affected", this is not a problem as far as Git is concerned. However, Git is not the only program that parses .gitignore because .gitignore is useful to distinguish build artifacts from source files. For example, tar(1) supports the --exclude-vcs-ignore option. As of writing, this option does not work perfectly, but it intends to create a tarball excluding files specified by .gitignore. So, I believe it is better to fix this issue. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@socionext.com>
