Now that all prerequisites are in place, drop the two-stage driver instances initialization in favor of the following simple init sequence: 1. Probe PCI device: we only test ECC capabilities here and if none exit early. 2. If the hw supports ECC and it is/can be enabled, we init the per-node instance. Remove "amd64_" prefix from static functions touched, while at it. There actually should be no visible functional change resulting from this patch.

Rework the code to check the hardware ECC capabilities at PCI probing time. We do all further initialization only if we actually can/have ECC enabled. While at it: 0. Fix function naming. 1. Simplify/clarify debug output. 2. Remove amd64_ prefix from the static functions 3. Reorganize code. Signed-off-by: Borislav Petkov <borislav.petkov@amd.com>

This is in preparation for the init path reorganization where we want only to 1) test whether a particular node supports ECC 2) can it be enabled and only then do the necessary allocation/initialization. For that, we need to decouple the ECC settings of the node from the instance's descriptor. The should be no functional change introduced by this patch.

The problem that this patch aims to fix is vfsmount refcounting scalability. We need to take a reference on the vfsmount for every successful path lookup, which often go to the same mount point. The fundamental difficulty is that a "simple" reference count can never be made scalable, because any time a reference is dropped, we must check whether that was the last reference. To do that requires communication with all other CPUs that may have taken a reference count. We can make refcounts more scalable in a couple of ways, involving keeping distributed counters, and checking for the global-zero condition less frequently. - check the global sum once every interval (this will delay zero detection for some interval, so it's probably a showstopper for vfsmounts). - keep a local count and only taking the global sum when local reaches 0 (this is difficult for vfsmounts, because we can't hold preempt off for the life of a reference, so a counter would need to be per-thread or tied strongly to a particular CPU which requires more locking). - keep a local difference of increments and decrements, which allows us to sum the total difference and hence find the refcount when summing all CPUs. Then, keep a single integer "long" refcount for slow and long lasting references, and only take the global sum of local counters when the long refcount is 0. This last scheme is what I implemented here. Attached mounts and process root and working directory references are "long" references, and everything else is a short reference. This allows scalable vfsmount references during path walking over mounted subtrees and unattached (lazy umounted) mounts with processes still running in them. This results in one fewer atomic op in the fastpath: mntget is now just a per-CPU inc, rather than an atomic inc; and mntput just requires a spinlock and non-atomic decrement in the common case. However code is otherwise bigger and heavier, so single threaded performance is basically a wash. Signed-off-by: Nick Piggin <npiggin@kernel.dk>

The standard memcmp function on a Westmere system shows up hot in profiles in the `git diff` workload (both parallel and single threaded), and it is likely due to the costs associated with trapping into microcode, and little opportunity to improve memory access (dentry name is not likely to take up more than a cacheline). So replace it with an open-coded byte comparison. This increases code size by 8 bytes in the critical __d_lookup_rcu function, but the speedup is huge, averaging 10 runs of each: git diff st user sys elapsed CPU before 1.15 2.57 3.82 97.1 after 1.14 2.35 3.61 96.8 git diff mt user sys elapsed CPU before 1.27 3.85 1.46 349 after 1.26 3.54 1.43 333 Elapsed time for single threaded git diff at 95.0% confidence: -0.21 +/- 0.01 -5.45% +/- 0.24% It's -0.66% +/- 0.06% elapsed time on my Opteron, so rep cmp costs on the fam10h seem to be relatively smaller, but there is still a win.

This makes single threaded git diff -1.25% +/- 0.05% elapsed time on my 2s12c24t Westmere system, and -0.86% +/- 0.05% on my 2s8c Barcelona, by prefetching the important first cacheline of the inode in while we do the actual name compare and other operations on the dentry. There was no measurable slowdown in the single file stat case, or the creat case (where negative dentries would be common). Signed-off-by: Nick Piggin <npiggin@kernel.dk>

Regardless of how much we possibly try to scale dcache, there is likely always going to be some fundamental contention when adding or removing children under the same parent. Pseudo filesystems do not seem need to have connected dentries because by definition they are disconnected. Signed-off-by: Nick Piggin <npiggin@kernel.dk>

dcache_inode_lock can be replaced with per-inode locking. Use existing inode->i_lock for this. This is slightly non-trivial because we sometimes need to find the inode from the dentry, which requires d_inode to be stabilised (either with refcount or d_lock).

Introduce a type of hlist that can support the use of the lowest bit in the hlist_head.

This simple implementation just checks for no ACLs on the inode, and if so, then the rcu-walk may proceed, otherwise fail it. This could easily be extended to put acls under RCU and check them under seqlock, if need be. But this implementation is enough to show the rcu-walk aware permissions code for path lookups is working, and will handle cases where there are no ACLs or ACLs in just the final element. This patch implicity converts tmpfs to rcu-aware permission check. Subsequent patches onvert ext*, xfs, and, btrfs. Each of these uses acl/permission code in a different way, so convert them all to provide templates and proof of concept. Signed-off-by: Nick Piggin <npiggin@kernel.dk>
