      lib/string.c: Use freestanding environment · 33d0f96f
      Arvind Sankar authored
      gcc can transform the loop in a naive implementation of memset/memcpy
      etc into a call to the function itself.  This optimization is enabled by
      -ftree-loop-distribute-patterns.
      
      This has been the case for a while, but gcc-10.x enables this option at
      -O2 rather than -O3 as in previous versions.
      
      Add -ffreestanding, which implicitly disables this optimization with
      gcc.  It is unclear whether clang performs such optimizations, but
      hopefully it will also not do so in a freestanding environment.

      x86/boot/compressed: Use builtin mem functions for decompressor · 394b19d6
      Arvind Sankar authored
      Since commits
      
        c041b5ad ("x86, boot: Create a separate string.h file to provide standard string functions")
        fb4cac57 ("x86, boot: Move memcmp() into string.h and string.c")
      
      the decompressor stub has been using the compiler's builtin memcpy,
      memset and memcmp functions, _except_ where it would likely have the
      largest impact, in the decompression code itself.
      
      Remove the #undef's of memcpy and memset in misc.c so that the
      decompressor code also uses the compiler builtins.
      
      The rationale given in the comment doesn't really apply: just because
      some functions use the out-of-line version is no reason to not use the
      builtin version in the rest.
      
      Replace the comment with an explanation of why memzero and memmove are
      being #define'd.
      
      Drop the suggestion to #undef in boot/string.h as well: the out-of-line
      versions are not really optimized versions, they're generic code that's
      good enough for the preboot environment. The compiler will likely
      generate better code for constant-size memcpy/memset/memcmp if it is
      allowed to.
      
      Most decompressors' performance is unchanged, with the exception of LZ4
      and 64-bit ZSTD.
      
      	Before	After ARCH
      LZ4	  73ms	 10ms   32
      LZ4	 120ms	 10ms	64
      ZSTD	  90ms	 74ms	64
      
      Measurements on QEMU on 2.2GHz Broadwell Xeon, using defconfig kernels.
      
      Decompressor code size has small differences, with the largest being
      that 64-bit ZSTD decreases just over 2k. The largest code size increase
      was on 64-bit XZ, of about 400 bytes.

      mm/memory.c: skip spurious TLB flush for retried page fault · b7333b58
      Yang Shi authored
      Recently we found regression when running will_it_scale/page_fault3 test
      on ARM64.  Over 70% down for the multi processes cases and over 20% down
      for the multi threads cases.  It turns out the regression is caused by
      commit 89b15332 ("mm: drop mmap_sem before calling
      balance_dirty_pages() in write fault").
      
      The test mmaps a memory size file then write to the mapping, this would
      make all memory dirty and trigger dirty pages throttle, that upstream
      commit would release mmap_sem then retry the page fault.  The retried
      page fault would see correct PTEs installed then just fall through to
      spurious TLB flush.  The regression is caused by the excessive spurious
      TLB flush.  It is fine on x86 since x86's spurious TLB flush is no-op.
      
      We could just skip the spurious TLB flush to mitigate the regression.

      net: xdp: pull ethernet header off packet after computing skb->protocol · f8414a8d
      Jason A. Donenfeld authored
      When an XDP program changes the ethernet header protocol field,
      eth_type_trans is used to recalculate skb->protocol. In order for
      eth_type_trans to work correctly, the ethernet header must actually be
      part of the skb data segment, so the code first pushes that onto the
      head of the skb. However, it subsequently forgets to pull it back off,
      making the behavior of the passed-on packet inconsistent between the
      protocol modifying case and the static protocol case. This patch fixes
      the issue by simply pulling the ethernet header back off of the skb
      head.
