The debugfs interface for accessing DRAM virtual addresses currently
uses the 12 LSBs of a virtual address as an offset.
However, it should use the 20 LSBs in case the device MMU page size is
2MB instead of 4KB.
This patch fixes the offset calculation to be based on the page size.

Fixes the following static checker errors:
drivers/fpga/zynqmp-fpga.c:50 zynqmp_fpga_ops_write()
error: 'eemi_ops' dereferencing possible ERR_PTR()
drivers/fpga/zynqmp-fpga.c:84 zynqmp_fpga_ops_state()
error: 'eemi_ops' dereferencing possible ERR_PTR()
Note: This does not handle the EPROBE_DEFER value in a
special manner.

This patch fix a bug in the mmu code that checks whether we can use huge
page mappings for host pages.
The code is supposed to enable huge page mappings only if ALL DMA
addresses are aligned to 2MB AND the number of pages in each DMA chunk is
a modulo of the number of pages in 2MB. However, the code ignored the
first requirement for the first DMA chunk.
This patch fix that issue by making sure the requirement of address
alignment is validated against all DMA chunks.

The MMU cache mutex is used in the ASIC hw_init() functions, but it is
initialized only later in hl_mmu_init().
This patch prevents it by moving the initialization to the
device_early_init() function.

This fixes multiple things in the habanalabs debugfs code, in particular:
- mmu_write() was unnecessarily verbose, copying around between multiple
buffers
- mmu_write() could write a user-specified, unbounded amount of userspace
memory into a kernel buffer (out-of-bounds write)
- multiple debugfs read handlers ignored the user-supplied count,
potentially corrupting out-of-bounds userspace data
- hl_device_read() was unnecessarily verbose
- hl_device_write() could read uninitialized stack memory
- multiple debugfs read handlers copied terminating null characters to
userspace

This patch defines a new opcode in the DEBUG IOCTL that is used by the
user to notify the driver when the user wants to start or stop using the
debug and profile infrastructure of the device. i.e. set the device to
debug mode or to non-debug mode.
There are a couple of restrictions that this new opcode introduces:
1. The user can't configure the debug/profiling infrastructure before he
sets the device to debug mode, by using this new opcode.
2. The user can't set the device to debug mode unless he is the only user
that is currently using (has an open FD) the device.
3. Other users can't use the device (open a new FD) in case an existing
user has set the device into debug mode.
These restrictions are needed because the debug and profiling
infrastructure is a shared component in the ASIC and therefore, can't be
used while multiple users are working on the device.
Because the driver currently does NOT support multiple users, the
implementation of the restrictions is not required at this point. However,
the interface definition is needed in order to avoid changing the user API
later on.

This patch fix a potential bug where a user's process has closed
unexpectedly without disabling the debug engines. In that case, the debug
engines might continue running but because the user's MMU mappings are
going away, we will get page fault errors.
This behavior is also opposed to the general rule where nothing runs on
the device after the user process closes.
The patch stops the debug H/W engines upon process termination and thus
makes sure nothing runs on the device after the process goes away.

The limit here is supposed to be how much of the page is left, but it's
just using PAGE_SIZE as the limit.
The other thing to remember is that snprintf() returns the number of
bytes which would have been copied if we had had enough room. So that
means that if we run out of space then this code would end up passing a
negative value as the limit and the kernel would print an error message.
I have change the code to use scnprintf() which returns the number of
bytes that were successfully printed (not counting the NUL terminator).

There are a couple potential integer overflows here.
round_up(m->size + (m->addr & ~PAGE_MASK), PAGE_SIZE);
The first thing is that the "m->size + (...)" addition could overflow,
and the second is that round_up() overflows to zero if the result is
within PAGE_SIZE of the type max.
In this code, the "m->size" variable is an u64 but we're saving the
result in "map_size" which is an unsigned long and genwqe_user_vmap()
takes an unsigned long as well. So I have used ULONG_MAX as the upper
bound. From a practical perspective unsigned long is fine/better than
trying to change all the types to u64.

Linus reported an issue that doing an allmodconfig was causing the
kheaders archive to be regenerated even though the config is the same.
This patch fixes the issue by ignoring the config-related header files
for "knowing when to regenerate based on timestamps". Instead, if the
CONFIG_X_Y option really changes, then we there are the
include/config/X/Y.h which will already tells us "if a config really
changed". So we don't really need these files for regeneration detection
anyway, and ignoring them fixes Linus's issue.

Since commit 54c7a8916a88 ("initramfs: free initrd memory if opening
/initrd.image fails"), the kernel has unconditionally attempted to free
the initrd even if it doesn't exist.
In the non-existent case this causes a boot-time splat if
CONFIG_DEBUG_VIRTUAL is enabled due to a call to virt_to_phys() with a
NULL address.
Instead we should check that the initrd actually exists and only attempt
to free it if it does.

There is no reproducer and it is difficult to hit -- 1 crash every few
days. 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.

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:

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

real 101m22.813s real 0m56.805s

# 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.
Complexity: ~O(log(N))

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:

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.

that way, but not all. The goal of this work is to make the notation

Having whitespaces after -I does not matter since commit 48f6e3cf5bc6

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

Then, syncconfig fails, but Make would not stop:
$ make -s mrproper allyesconfig defconfig
$ make

The reason is in the behavior of a pattern rule with multi-targets.
%/auto.conf %/auto.conf.cmd %/tristate.conf: $(KCONFIG_CONFIG)
$(Q)$(MAKE) -f $(srctree)/Makefile syncconfig
GNU Make knows this rule is responsible for making all the three files
simultaneously. 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.

Let's add all flags inside ifdef CONFIG_CC_IS_CLANG unconditionally.

This is no longer a valid option in clang, it was removed in 3.5, which
we don't support.

These flags are documented in the GCC 4.6 manual, and recognized by
Clang as well. Let's rip off the cc-option / cc-disable-warning switches.

These generic-y defines do not have the corresponding generic header
in include/asm-generic/, so they are definitely invalid.

Do not descend to sub-directories when unneeded.
I used subdir-$(CONFIG_...) for hidraw, seccomp, and vfs because
they only contain host programs.
While we are here, let's add SPDX License tag, and sort the directories
alphabetically.

This warning was disabled by commit bd664f6b3e37 ("disable new
gcc-7.1.1 warnings for now") just because it was too noisy.
Thanks to Arnd Bergmann, all warnings have been fixed. Now, we are
ready to re-enable it.

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.

Towards the goal of removing cc-ldoption, it seems that --hash-style=
was added to binutils 2.17.50.0.2 in 2006. The minimal required version
of binutils for the kernel according to
Documentation/process/changes.rst is 2.20.

Handling of aborted journal is a special code path different from
standard ext4_error() one and it can call panic() as well. Commit
1dc1097ff60e ("ext4: avoid panic during forced reboot") forgot to update
this path so fix that omission.
