Patch series "huge vmalloc mappings", v13.
The kernel virtual mapping layer grew support for mapping memory with >
PAGE_SIZE ptes with commit 0ddab1d2ed ("lib/ioremap.c: add huge I/O
map capability interfaces"), and implemented support for using those
huge page mappings with ioremap.
According to the submission, the use-case is mapping very large
non-volatile memory devices, which could be GB or TB:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/1425404664-19675-1-git-send-email-toshi.kani@hp.com/
The benefit is said to be in the overhead of maintaining the mapping,
perhaps both in memory overhead and setup / teardown time. Memory
overhead for the mapping with a 4kB page and 8 byte page table is 2GB
per TB of mapping, down to 4MB / TB with 2MB pages.
The same huge page vmap infrastructure can be quite easily adapted and
used for mapping vmalloc memory pages without more complexity for arch
or core vmap code. However unlike ioremap, vmalloc page table overhead
is not a real problem, so the advantage to justify this is performance.
Several of the most structures in the kernel (e.g., vfs and network hash
tables) are allocated with vmalloc on NUMA machines, in order to
distribute access bandwidth over the machine. Mapping these with larger
pages can improve TLB usage significantly, for example this reduces TLB
misses by nearly 30x on a `git diff` workload on a 2-node POWER9 (59,800
-> 2,100) and reduces CPU cycles by 0.54%, due to vfs hashes being
allocated with 2MB pages.
[ Other numbers?
- The difference is even larger in a guest due to more costly TLB
misses.
- Eric Dumazet was keen on the network hash performance possibilities.
- Other archs? Ding was doing x86 testing. ]
The kernel module allocator also uses vmalloc to map module images even on
non-NUMA, which can result in high iTLB pressure on highly modular distro
type of kernels. This series does not implement huge mappings for modules
yet, but it's a step along the way. Rick Edgecombe was looking at that
IIRC.
The per-cpu allocator similarly might be able to take advantage of this.
Also on the todo list.
The disadvantages of this I can see are:
* Memory fragmentation can waste some physical memory because it will
attempt to allocate larger pages to fit the required size, rounding up
(once the requested size is >= 2MB).
- I don't see it being a big problem in practice unless some user
crops up that allocates thousands of 2.5MB ranges. We can tewak
heuristics a bit there if needed to reduce peak waste.
* Less granular mappings can make the NUMA distribution less balanced.
- Similar to the above.
- Could also allocate all major system hashes with one allocation
up-front and spread them all across the one block, which should help
overall NUMA distribution and reduce fragmentation waste.
* Callers might expect something about the underlying allocated pages.
- Tried to keep the apperance of base PAGE_SIZE pages throughout the
APIs and exposed data structures.
- Added a VM_NO_HUGE_VMAP flag to hammer troublesome cases with.
- Finally, added a nohugevmalloc boot option to turn it off (independent
of nohugeiomap).
This patch (of 14):
ARM uses its own PMD folding scheme which is missing pud_page which should
just pass through to pmd_page. Move this from the 3-level page table to
common header.

Newer Xen versions expose two Xen feature flags to tell us if the domain

makes sense to enable swiotlb-xen on ARM.
Introduce a function on ARM to check the new Xen feature flags and also
to deal with the legacy case. Call the function xen_swiotlb_detect.

Internal error: Oops: 80d [#1] PREEMPT SMP ARM
...
This is caused by machine_kexec() trying to set the kernel text to be
read/write, so it can poke values into the relocation code before
copying it - and an interrupt occuring which changes the page tables.
The subsequent writes then hit read-only sections that trigger a
data abort resulting in the above oops.
Fix this by copying the relocation code, and then writing the variables
into the destination, thereby avoiding the need to make the kernel text
read/write.

With any luck we'll sort out the issue, but given how many bugs get

guess is that we're just running into something that's been lurking
for a while and has already been fixed in the newer QEMU (though I
wouldn't be surprised if it's one of these implicit assumptions we
have in the boot flow). If it was hardware I'd be strongly inclined to
look more closely, but given that users can upgrade their simulators

Pull TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL updates from Jens Axboe:
"This sits on top of of the core entry/exit and x86 entry branch from
the tip tree, which contains the generic and x86 parts of this work.
Here we convert the rest of the archs to support TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL.
With that done, we can get rid of JOBCTL_TASK_WORK from task_work and
signal.c, and also remove a deadlock work-around in io_uring around
knowing that signal based task_work waking is invoked with the sighand
wait queue head lock.
The motivation for this work is to decouple signal notify based
task_work, of which io_uring is a heavy user of, from sighand. The
sighand lock becomes a huge contention point, particularly for
threaded workloads where it's shared between threads. Even outside of
threaded applications it's slower than it needs to be.
Roman Gershman <romger@amazon.com> reported that his networked
workload dropped from 1.6M QPS at 80% CPU to 1.0M QPS at 100% CPU
after io_uring was changed to use TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL. The time was all
spent hammering on the sighand lock, showing 57% of the CPU time there
[1].
There are further cleanups possible on top of this. One example is
TIF_PATCH_PENDING, where a patch already exists to use
TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL instead. Hopefully this will also lead to more
consolidation, but the work stands on its own as well"

Pull asm-generic cross-architecture timer cleanup from Arnd Bergmann:
"This cleans up two ancient timer features that were never completed in
the past, CONFIG_GENERIC_CLOCKEVENTS and CONFIG_ARCH_USES_GETTIMEOFFSET.
There was only one user left for the ARCH_USES_GETTIMEOFFSET variant

changing to use modern timekeeping, we remove the platform entirely as
Russell no longer uses his machine and nobody else seems to have one
any more.
The conditional code for using arch_gettimeoffset() is removed as a
result.
For CONFIG_GENERIC_CLOCKEVENTS, there are still a couple of platforms
not using clockevent drivers: parisc, ia64, most of m68k, and one Arm
platform. These all do timer ticks slighly differently, and this gets
cleaned up to the point they at least all call the same helper

Pull kmap updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"The new preemtible kmap_local() implementation:
- Consolidate all kmap_atomic() internals into a generic
implementation which builds the base for the kmap_local() API and
make the kmap_atomic() interface wrappers which handle the
disabling/enabling of preemption and pagefaults.
- Switch the storage from per-CPU to per task and provide scheduler
support for clearing mapping when scheduling out and restoring them
when scheduling back in.
- Merge the migrate_disable/enable() code, which is also part of the
scheduler pull request. This was required to make the kmap_local()
interface available which does not disable preemption when a
mapping is established. It has to disable migration instead to
guarantee that the virtual address of the mapped slot is the same
across preemption.
- Provide better debug facilities: guard pages and enforced
utilization of the mapping mechanics on 64bit systems when the
architecture allows it.
- Provide the new kmap_local() API which can now be used to cleanup
the kmap_atomic() usage sites all over the place. Most of the usage
sites do not require the implicit disabling of preemption and
pagefaults so the penalty on 64bit and 32bit non-highmem systems is
removed and quite some of the code can be simplified. A wholesale
conversion is not possible because some usage depends on the
implicit side effects and some need to be cleaned up because they
work around these side effects.
The migrate disable side effect is only effective on highmem
systems and when enforced debugging is enabled. On 64bit and 32bit
non-highmem systems the overhead is completely avoided"

Pull arm64 updates from Catalin Marinas:
- Expose tag address bits in siginfo. The original arm64 ABI did not
expose any of the bits 63:56 of a tagged address in siginfo. In the
presence of user ASAN or MTE, this information may be useful. The
implementation is generic to other architectures supporting tags
(like SPARC ADI, subject to wiring up the arch code). The user will
have to opt in via sigaction(SA_EXPOSE_TAGBITS) so that the extra
bits, if available, become visible in si_addr.
- Default to 32-bit wide ZONE_DMA. Previously, ZONE_DMA was set to the
lowest 1GB to cope with the Raspberry Pi 4 limitations, to the
detriment of other platforms. With these changes, the kernel scans
the Device Tree dma-ranges and the ACPI IORT information before
deciding on a smaller ZONE_DMA.
- Strengthen READ_ONCE() to acquire when CONFIG_LTO=y. When building
with LTO, there is an increased risk of the compiler converting an
address dependency headed by a READ_ONCE() invocation into a control
dependency and consequently allowing for harmful reordering by the
CPU.
- Add CPPC FFH support using arm64 AMU counters.
- set_fs() removal on arm64. This renders the User Access Override
(UAO) ARMv8 feature unnecessary.
- Perf updates: PMU driver for the ARM DMC-620 memory controller, sysfs
identifier file for SMMUv3, stop event counters support for i.MX8MP,
enable the perf events-based hard lockup detector.
- Reorganise the kernel VA space slightly so that 52-bit VA
configurations can use more virtual address space.
- Improve the robustness of the arm64 memory offline event notifier.
- Pad the Image header to 64K following the EFI header definition
updated recently to increase the section alignment to 64K.
- Support CONFIG_CMDLINE_EXTEND on arm64.
- Do not use tagged PC in the kernel (TCR_EL1.TBID1==1), freeing up 8
bits for PtrAuth.
- Switch to vmapped shadow call stacks.
- Miscellaneous clean-ups.

Now that we reduced the minimum relative alignment between PHYS_OFFSET
and PAGE_OFFSET to 2 MiB, we can take this into account when allocating
memory for the decompressed kernel when booting via EFI. This minimizes
the amount of unusable memory we may end up with due to the base of DRAM
being occupied by firmware.

Scatter-gather lists passed to UpdateCapsule() should be cleaned
from the D-cache to ensure that they are visible to the CPU after a
warm reboot before the MMU is enabled. On ARM and arm64 systems, this
implies a D-cache clean by virtual address to the point of coherency.
However, due to the fact that the firmware itself is not able to map
physical addresses back to virtual addresses when running under the OS,
this must be done by the caller.

The ARM version of __div64_32() encapsulates a call to __do_div64 with
non-standard argument passing. In particular, __n is a 64-bit input
argument assigned to r0-r1 and __rem is an output argument sharing half
of that r0-r1 register pair.
With __n being an input argument, the compiler is in its right to
presume that r0-r1 would still hold the value of __n past the inline
assembly statement. Normally, the compiler would have assigned non
overlapping registers to __n and __rem if the value for __n is needed
again.
However, here we enforce our own register assignment and gcc fails to
notice the conflict. In practice this doesn't cause any problem as __n
is considered dead after the asm statement and *n is overwritten.
However this is not always guaranteed and clang rightfully complains.
Let's fix it properly by making __n into an input-output variable. This
makes it clear that those registers representing __n have been modified.
Then we can extract __rem as the high part of __n with plain C code.
This asm constraint "abuse" was likely relied upon back when gcc didn't
handle 64-bit values optimally. Turns out that gcc is now able to
optimize things and produces the same code with this patch applied.

arch: pgtable: define MAX_POSSIBLE_PHYSMEM_BITS where needed
Previously we were not clearing non-uapi flag bits in
sigaction.sa_flags when storing the userspace-provided sa_flags or
when returning them via oldact. Start doing so.
This allows userspace to detect missing support for flag bits and
allows the kernel to use non-uapi bits internally, as we are already
doing in arch/x86 for two flag bits. Now that this change is in
place, we no longer need the code in arch/x86 that was hiding these
bits from userspace, so remove it.
This is technically a userspace-visible behavior change for sigaction, as
the unknown bits returned via oldact.sa_flags are no longer set. However,
we are free to define the behavior for unknown bits exactly because
their behavior is currently undefined, so for now we can define the
meaning of each of them to be "clear the bit in oldact.sa_flags unless
the bit becomes known in the future". Furthermore, this behavior is
consistent with OpenBSD [1], illumos [2] and XNU [3] (FreeBSD [4] and
NetBSD [5] fail the syscall if unknown bits are set). So there is some
precedent for this behavior in other kernels, and in particular in XNU,
which is probably the most popular kernel among those that I looked at,
which means that this change is less likely to be a compatibility issue.

Most architectures with the exception of alpha, mips, parisc and
sparc use the same values for these flags. Move their definitions into
asm-generic/signal-defs.h and allow the architectures with non-standard
values to override them. Also, document the non-standard flag values
in order to make it easier to add new generic flags in the future.
A consequence of this change is that on powerpc and x86, the constants'
values aside from SA_RESETHAND change signedness from unsigned
to signed. This is not expected to impact realistic use of these
constants. In particular the typical use of the constants where they
are or'ed together and assigned to sa_flags (or another int variable)
would not be affected.
