The x32 ABI is now independent of the ia32 compat ABI. Common code is now conditional on CONFIG_COMPAT, but unshared code like syscall entry, signal handling, and the VDSO are under separate config options. Signed-off-by:

Before, the code to do RDTSC looked like: rdtsc shl $0x20, %rdx mov %eax, %eax or %rdx, %rax The "mov %eax, %eax" is required to clear the high 32 bits of RAX. By declaring low and high as 64-bit variables, the code is simplified to: rdtsc shl $0x20,%rdx or %rdx,%rax Yes, it's a 2-byte instruction that's not on a critical path, but there are principles to be upheld. Every user of EAX_EDX_RET has been checked. I tried to check users of EAX_EDX_ARGS, but there weren't any, so I deleted it to be safe. ( There's no benefit to making "high" 64 bits, but it was the simplest way to proceed. ) Signed-off-by:

__pvclock_read_cycles() used to have two barriers, one of which was unnecessary, which got removed after an initial version of this patch was sent. But the barrier is still open-coded unnecessarily - get rid of that barrier and clean up the code by just using rdtsc_ordered(). Signed-off-by:
-
Andy Lutomirski authored
There are two logical changes here. First, this removes a check for cpu_has_tsc. That check is unnecessary, as we don't register the TSC as a clocksource on systems that have no TSC. Second, it adds a barrier, thus preventing observable non-monotonicity. I suspect that the missing barrier was never a problem in practice because system calls themselves were heavy enough barriers to prevent user code from observing time warps due to speculation. (Without the corresponding barrier in the vDSO, however, non-monotonicity is easy to detect.) Signed-off-by:
-
Andy Lutomirski authored
Using get_cycles was unnecessary: check_tsc_warp() is not called on TSC-less systems. Replace rdtsc_barrier(); get_cycles() with rdtsc_ordered(). While we're at it, make the somewhat more dangerous change of removing barrier_before_rdtsc after RDTSC in the TSC warp check code. This should be okay, though -- the vDSO TSC code doesn't have that barrier, so, if removing the barrier from the warp check would cause us to detect a warp that we otherwise wouldn't detect, then we have a genuine bug.

Andy Lutomirski authored
rdtsc_barrier(); rdtsc() is an unnecessary mouthful and requires more thought than should be necessary. Add an rdtsc_ordered() helper and replace the trivial call sites with it. This should not change generated code. The duplication of the fence asm is temporary. Signed-off-by:

Now that there is no paravirt TSC, the "native" is inappropriate. The function does RDTSC, so give it the obvious name: rdtsc(). Suggested-by:

It has no more callers, and it was never a very sensible interface to begin with. Users of the TSC should either read all 64 bits or explicitly throw out the high bits. Signed-off-by:

This code is timing 100k indirect calls, so the added overhead of counting the number of cycles elapsed as a 64-bit number should be insignificant. Drop the optimization of using a 32-bit count. Signed-off-by:

Now that the ->read_tsc() paravirt hook is gone, rdtscll() is just a wrapper around native_read_tsc(). Unwrap it. Signed-off-by:
-
Andy Lutomirski authored
We've had ->read_tsc() and ->read_tscp() paravirt hooks since the very beginning of paravirt, i.e., d3561b7f ("[PATCH] paravirt: header and stubs for paravirtualisation"). AFAICT, the only paravirt guest implementation that ever replaced these calls was vmware, and it's gone. Arguably even vmware shouldn't have hooked RDTSC -- we fully support systems that don't have a TSC at all, so there's no point for a paravirt implementation to pretend that we have a TSC but to replace it. I also doubt that these hooks actually worked. Calls to rdtscl() and rdtscll(), which respected the hooks, were used seemingly interchangeably with native_read_tsc(), which did not. Just remove them. If anyone ever needs them again, they can try to make a case for why they need them.

The only caller was KVM's read_tsc(). The only difference between vget_cycles() and native_read_tsc() was that vget_cycles() returned zero instead of crashing on TSC-less systems. KVM already checks vclock_mode() before calling that function, so the extra check is unnecessary. Also, KVM (host-side) requires the TSC to exist. Signed-off-by:

In the following commit: cdc7957d ("x86: move native_read_tsc() offline") ... native_read_tsc() was moved out of line, presumably for some now-obsolete vDSO-related reason. Undo it. The entire rdtsc, shl, or sequence is only 11 bytes, and calls via rdtscl() and similar helpers were already inlined. Signed-off-by:

ext4_free_blocks is looping around the allocation request and mimics __GFP_NOFAIL behavior without any allocation fallback strategy. Let's remove the open coded loop and replace it with __GFP_NOFAIL. Without the flag the allocator has no way to find out never-fail requirement and cannot help in any way. Signed-off-by:

Commit 835a6a2f ("Bluetooth: Stop sabotaging list poisoning") thought that the code was sabotaging the list poisoning when NULL'ing out the list pointers and removed it. But what was going on was that the bluetooth code was using NULL pointers for the list as a way to mark it empty, and that commit just broke it (and replaced the test with NULL with a "list_empty()" test on a uninitialized list instead, breaking things even further). So fix it all up to use the regular and real list_empty() handling (which does not use NULL, but a pointer to itself), also making sure to initialize the list properly (the previous NULL case was initialized implicitly by the session being allocated with kzalloc()) This is a combination of patches by Marcel Holtmann and Tedd Ho-Jeong An. [ I would normally expect to get this through the bt tree, but I'm going to release -rc1, so I'm just committing this directly - Linus ] Reported-and-tested-by:

Pull SCSI target updates from Nicholas Bellinger: "It's been a busy development cycle for target-core in a number of different areas. The fabric API usage for se_node_acl allocation is now within target-core code, dropping the external API callers for all fabric drivers tree-wide. There is a new conversion to RCU hlists for se_node_acl and se_portal_group LUN mappings, that turns fast-past LUN lookup into a completely lockless code-path. It also removes the original hard-coded limitation of 256 LUNs per fabric endpoint. The configfs attributes for backends can now be shared between core and driver code, allowing existing drivers to use common code while still allowing flexibility for new backend provided attributes. The highlights include: - Merge sbc_verify_dif_* into common code (sagi) - Remove iscsi-target support for obsolete IFMarker/OFMarker (Christophe Vu-Brugier) - Add bidi support in target/user backend (ilias + vangelis + agover) - Move se_node_acl allocation into target-core code (hch) - Add crc_t10dif_update common helper (akinobu + mkp) - Handle target-core odd SGL mapping for data transfer memory (akinobu) - Move transport ID handling into target-core (hch) - Move task tag into struct se_cmd + support 64-bit tags (bart) - Convert se_node_acl->device_list[] to RCU hlist (nab + hch + paulmck) - Convert se_portal_group->tpg_lun_list[] to RCU hlist (nab + hch + paulmck) - Simplify target backend driver registration (hch) - Consolidate + simplify target backend attribute implementations (hch + nab) - Subsume se_port + t10_alua_tg_pt_gp_member into se_lun (hch) - Drop lun_sep_lock for se_lun->lun_se_dev RCU usage (hch + nab) - Drop unnecessary core_tpg_register TFO parameter (nab) - Use 64-bit LUNs tree-wide (hannes) - Drop left-over TARGET_MAX_LUNS_PER_TRANSPORT limit (hannes)" * 'for-next' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nab/target-pending: (76 commits) target: Bump core version to v5.0 target: remove target_core_configfs.h target: remove unused TARGET_CORE_CONFIG_ROOT define target: consolidate version defines target: implement WRITE_SAME with UNMAP bit using ->execute_unmap target: simplify UNMAP handling target: replace se_cmd->execute_rw with a protocol_data field target/user: Fix inconsistent kmap_atomic/kunmap_atomic target: Send UA when changing LUN inventory target: Send UA upon LUN RESET tmr completion target: Send UA on ALUA target port group change target: Convert se_lun->lun_deve_lock to normal spinlock target: use 'se_dev_entry' when allocating UAs target: Remove 'ua_nacl' pointer from se_ua structure target_core_alua: Correct UA handling when switching states xen-scsiback: Fix compile warning for 64-bit LUN target: Remove TARGET_MAX_LUNS_PER_TRANSPORT target: use 64-bit LUNs target: Drop duplicate + unused se_dev_check_wce target: Drop unnecessary core_tpg_register TFO parameter ... -
