Will Deacon says: ==================== sparc32 SRMMU fixes for SMP Enabling SMP for sparc32 uncovered some issues in the SRMMU page-table allocation code. One of these was introduced by me, but the other two seem to have been there a while and are probably just exposed more easily by my recent changes. Tested on QEMU. I'm assuming these will go via David's tree. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

The SRMMU page-table allocator allocates multiple PTE tables per page, since they are only 1K in size. However, this means that calls to pgtable_pte_page_{ctor,dtor}() must be serialised and performed only by the first and last page-table allocation for the page respectively. Use the page reference count to track how many PTE tables we have allocated for a given page returned by the SRMMU allocator and only call the ctor()/dtor() functions for the first and last user respectively.

The SRMMU page-table allocator is not compatible with SPLIT_PTLOCK_CPUS for two major reasons: 1. Pages are allocated via memblock, and therefore the ptl is not cleared by prep_new_page(), which is expected by ptlock_init() 2. Multiple PTE tables can exist in a single page, causing them to share the same ptl and deadlock when attempting to take the same lock twice (e.g. as part of copy_page_range()). Ensure that SPLIT_PTLOCK_CPUS is not selected for SPARC32. Cc: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net> Signed-off-by: Will Deacon <will@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

The pages backing page-table allocations for SRMMU are allocated via memblock as part of the "nocache" region initialisation during srmmu_paging_init() and should not be freed even if a later call to pgtable_pte_page_ctor() fails.

sparc32 never registered the memory occupied by the kernel image with memblock_add() and it only reserved this memory with meblock_reserve(). With openbios as system firmware, the memory occupied by the kernel is reserved in openbios and removed from mem.available. The prom setup code in the kernel uses mem.available to set up the memory banks and essentially there is a hole for the memory occupied by the kernel image. Later in bootmem_init() this memory is memblock_reserve()d. Up until recently, memmap initialization would call __init_single_page() for the pages in that hole, the free_low_memory_core_early() would mark them as reserved and everything would be Ok. After the change in memmap initialization introduced by the commit "mm: memmap_init: iterate over memblock regions rather that check each PFN", the hole is skipped and the page structs for it are not initialized. And when they are passed from memblock to page allocator as reserved, the latter gets confused. Simply registering the memory occupied by the kernel with memblock_add() resolves this issue.

It needs access_process_vm() if the traced process does not share mm with the caller. Solution is similar to what sparc64 does. Note that genregs32_set() is only ever called with pos being 0 or 32 * sizeof(u32) (the latter - as part of PTRACE_SETREGS handling).

We do need access_process_vm() to access the target's reg_window.

This code was using get_user_pages_fast(), in a "Case 2" scenario (DMA/RDMA), using the categorization from [1]. That means that it's time to convert the get_user_pages_fast() + put_page() calls to pin_user_pages_fast() + unpin_user_pages() calls. There is some helpful background in [2]: basically, this is a small part of fixing a long-standing disconnect between pinning pages, and file systems' use of those pages.

The "SRMMU" supports 4k pages using a fixed three-level walk with a 256-entry PGD and 64-entry PMD/PTE levels. In order to fill a page with a 'pgtable_t', the SRMMU code allocates four native PTE tables into a single PTE allocation and similarly for the PMD level, leading to an array of 16 physical pointers in a 'pmd_t' This breaks the generic code which assumes READ_ONCE(*pmd) will be word sized. In a manner similar to ef22d8ab ("m68k: mm: Restructure Motorola MMU page-table layout"), this patch implements the native page-table setup directly. This significantly increases the page-table memory overhead, but will be addresses in a subsequent patch. Cc: "David S.

A bug report was posted that running the preempt irq delay module on a slow machine, and removing it quickly could lead to the thread created by the modlue to execute after the module is removed, and this could cause the kernel to crash. The fix for this was to call kthread_stop() after creating the thread to make sure it finishes before allowing the module to be removed. Now this caused the opposite problem on fast machines. What now happens is the kthread_stop() can cause the kthread never to execute and the test never to run. To fix this, add a completion and wait for the kthread to execute, then wait for it to end. This issue caused the ftracetest selftests to fail on the preemptirq tests.

Pull iommu fixes from Joerg Roedel: - Race condition fixes for the AMD IOMMU driver. These are five patches fixing two race conditions around increase_address_space(). The first race condition was around the non-atomic update of the domain page-table root pointer and the variable containing the page-table depth (called mode). This is fixed now be merging page-table root and mode into one 64-bit field which is read/written atomically. The second race condition was around updating the page-table root pointer and making it public before the hardware caches were flushed. This could cause addresses to be mapped and returned to drivers which are not reachable by IOMMU hardware yet, causing IO page-faults. This is fixed too by adding the necessary flushes before a new page-table root is published. Related to the race condition fixes these patches also add a missing domain_flush_complete() barrier to update_domain() and a fix to bail out of the loop which tries to increase the address space when the call to increase_address_space() fails. Qian was able to trigger the race conditions under high load and memory pressure within a few days of testing.

It seems that for whatever reason, gcc-10 ends up not inlining a couple of functions that used to be inlined before. Even if they only have one single callsite - it looks like gcc may have decided that the code was unlikely, and not worth inlining. The code generation difference is harmless, but caused a few new section mismatch errors, since the (now no longer inlined) function wasn't in the __init section, but called other init functions: Section mismatch in reference from the function kexec_free_initrd() to the function .init.text:free_initrd_mem() Section mismatch in reference from the function tpm2_calc_event_log_size() to the function .init.text:early_memremap() Section mismatch in reference from the function tpm2_calc_event_log_size() to the function .init.text:early_memunmap() So add the appropriate __init annotation to make modpost not complain. In both cases there were trivially just a single callsite from another __init function. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

gcc-10 has started warning about conflicting types for a few new built-in functions, particularly 'free()'. This results in warnings like: crypto/xts.c:325:13: warning: conflicting types for built-in function ‘free’; expected ‘void(void *)’ [-Wbuiltin-declaration-mismatch] because the crypto layer had its local freeing functions called 'free()'. Gcc-10 is in the wrong here, since that function is marked 'static', and thus there is no chance of confusion with any standard library function namespace. But the simplest thing to do is to just use a different name here, and avoid this gcc mis-feature. [ Side note: gcc knowing about 'free()' is in itself not the mis-feature: the semantics of 'free()' are special enough that a compiler can validly do special things when seeing it. So the mis-feature here is that gcc thinks that 'free()' is some restricted name, and you can't shadow it as a local static function. Making the special 'free()' semantics be a function attribute rather than tied to the name would be the much better model ] Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

gcc-10 now warns about passing aliasing pointers to functions that take restricted pointers. That's actually a great warning, and if we ever start using 'restrict' in the kernel, it might be quite useful. But right now we don't, and it turns out that the only thing this warns about is an idiom where we have declared a few functions to be "printf-like" (which seems to make gcc pick up the restricted pointer thing), and then we print to the same buffer that we also use as an input. And people do that as an odd concatenation pattern, with code like this: #define sysfs_show_gen_prop(buffer, fmt, ...) \ snprintf(buffer, PAGE_SIZE, "%s"fmt, buffer, __VA_ARGS__) where we have 'buffer' as both the destination of the final result, and as the initial argument. Yes, it's a bit questionable. And outside of the kernel, people do have standard declarations like int snprintf( char *restrict buffer, size_t bufsz, const char *restrict format, ... ); where that output buffer is marked as a restrict pointer that cannot alias with any other arguments. But in the context of the kernel, that 'use snprintf() to concatenate to the end result' does work, and the pattern shows up in multiple places. And we have not marked our own version of snprintf() as taking restrict pointers, so the warning is incorrect for now, and gcc picks it up on its own. If we do start using 'restrict' in the kernel (and it might be a good idea if people find places where it matters), we'll need to figure out how to avoid this issue for snprintf and friends. But in the meantime, this warning is not useful. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

When the controller is reconnecting, the host fails I/O and admin commands as the host cannot reach the controller. ns scanning may revalidate namespaces during that period and it is wrong to remove namespaces due to these failures as we may hang (see 205da243). One command that may fail is nvme_identify_ns_descs. Since we return success due to having ns identify descriptor list optional, we continue to compare ns identifiers in nvme_revalidate_disk, obviously fail and return -ENODEV to nvme_validate_ns, which will remove the namespace. Exactly what we don't want to happen.

Pre-incrementing ->cq_head can't be done in memory because OOB value can be observed by another context. This devalues space savings compared to original code :-\ $ ./scripts/bloat-o-meter ../vmlinux-000 ../obj/vmlinux add/remove: 0/0 grow/shrink: 0/4 up/down: 0/-32 (-32) Function old new delta nvme_poll_irqdisable 464 456 -8 nvme_poll 455 447 -8 nvme_irq 388 380 -8 nvme_dev_disable 955 947 -8 But the code is minimal now: one read for head, one read for q_depth, one increment, one comparison, single instruction phase bit update and one write for new head.
