      powerpc/tm: Avoid SLB faults in treclaim/trecheckpoint when RI=0 · 190ce869
      Michael Neuling 提交于
      Currently we have 2 segments that are bolted for the kernel linear
      mapping (ie 0xc000... addresses). This is 0 to 1TB and also the kernel
      stacks. Anything accessed outside of these regions may need to be
      faulted in. (In practice machines with TM always have 1T segments)
      
      If a machine has < 2TB of memory we never fault on the kernel linear
      mapping as these two segments cover all physical memory. If a machine
      has > 2TB of memory, there may be structures outside of these two
      segments that need to be faulted in. This faulting can occur when
      running as a guest as the hypervisor may remove any SLB that's not
      bolted.
      
      When we treclaim and trecheckpoint we have a window where we need to
      run with the userspace GPRs. This means that we no longer have a valid
      stack pointer in r1. For this window we therefore clear MSR RI to
      indicate that any exceptions taken at this point won't be able to be
      handled. This means that we can't take segment misses in this RI=0
      window.
      
      In this RI=0 region, we currently access the thread_struct for the
      process being context switched to or from. This thread_struct access
      may cause a segment fault since it's not guaranteed to be covered by
      the two bolted segment entries described above.
      
      We've seen this with a crash when running as a guest with > 2TB of
      memory on PowerVM:

      This fixes this by copying the required data from the thread_struct to
      the stack before we clear MSR RI. Then once we clear RI, we only access
      the stack, guaranteeing there's no segment miss.
      
      We also tighten the region over which we set RI=0 on the treclaim()
      path. This may have a slight performance impact since we're adding an
      mtmsr instruction.

      powerpc/tm: Always reclaim in start_thread() for exec() class syscalls · 8e96a87c
      Cyril Bur 提交于
      Userspace can quite legitimately perform an exec() syscall with a
      suspended transaction. exec() does not return to the old process, rather
      it load a new one and starts that, the expectation therefore is that the
      new process starts not in a transaction. Currently exec() is not treated
      any differently to any other syscall which creates problems.
      
      Firstly it could allow a new process to start with a suspended
      transaction for a binary that no longer exists. This means that the
      checkpointed state won't be valid and if the suspended transaction were
      ever to be resumed and subsequently aborted (a possibility which is
      exceedingly likely as exec()ing will likely doom the transaction) the
      new process will jump to invalid state.
      
      Secondly the incorrect attempt to keep the transactional state while
      still zeroing state for the new process creates at least two TM Bad
      Things. The first triggers on the rfid to return to userspace as
      start_thread() has given the new process a 'clean' MSR but the suspend
      will still be set in the hardware MSR. The second TM Bad Thing triggers
      in __switch_to() as the processor is still transactionally suspended but
      __switch_to() wants to zero the TM sprs for the new process.
      
      This is an example of the outcome of calling exec() with a suspended
      transaction. Note the first 700 is likely the first TM bad thing
      decsribed earlier only the kernel can't report it as we've loaded
      userspace registers. c000000000009980 is the rfid in
      fast_exception_return()

      If we do not provide the PVR for POWER8NVL, a guest on this system
      currently ends up in PowerISA 2.06 compatibility mode on KVM, since QEMU
      does not provide a generic PowerISA 2.07 mode yet. So some new
      instructions from POWER8 (like "mtvsrd") get disabled for the guest,

      powerpc/mm/hash: Fix the reference bit update when handling hash fault · dc47c0c1
      Aneesh Kumar K.V 提交于
      When we converted the asm routines to C functions, we missed updating
      HPTE_R_R based on _PAGE_ACCESSED. ASM code used to copy over the lower
      bits from pte via.
      
      andi.	r3,r30,0x1fe		/* Get basic set of flags */
      
      We also update the code such that we won't update the Change bit ('C'
      bit) always. This was added by commit c5cf0e30 ("powerpc: Fix
      buglet with MMU hash management").
      
      With hash64, we need to make sure that hardware doesn't do a pte update
      directly. This is because we do end up with entries in TLB with no hash
      page table entry. This happens because when we find a hash bucket full,
      we "evict" a more/less random entry from it. When we do that we don't
      invalidate the TLB (hpte_remove) because we assume the old translation
      is still technically "valid". For more info look at commit
      0608d692("powerpc/mm: Always invalidate tlb on hpte invalidate and
      update").
      
      Thus it's critical that valid hash PTEs always have reference bit set
      and writeable ones have change bit set. We do this by hashing a
      non-dirty linux PTE as read-only and always setting _PAGE_ACCESSED (and
      thus R) when hashing anything else in. Any attempt by Linux at clearing
      those bits also removes the corresponding hash entry.
      
      Commit 5cf0e30bf3d8 did that for 'C' bit by enabling 'C' bit always.
      We don't really need to do that because we never map a RW pte entry
      without setting 'C' bit. On READ fault on a RW pte entry, we still map
      it READ only, hence a store update in the page will still cause a hash
      pte fault.
      
      This patch reverts the part of commit c5cf0e30 ("[PATCH] powerpc:
      Fix buglet with MMU hash management") and retain the updatepp part.
      
      - If we hit the updatepp path on native, the old code without that
        commit, would fail to set C bcause native_hpte_updatepp()
        was implemented to filter the same bits as H_PROTECT and not let C
        through thus we would "upgrade" a RO HPTE to RW without setting C
        thus causing the bug. So the real fix in that commit was the change
        to native_hpte_updatepp

      Mikulas Patocka 提交于
      The HPFS filesystem used generic_show_options to produce string that is
      displayed in /proc/mounts.  However, there is a problem that the options
      may disappear after remount.  If we mount the filesystem with option1
      and then remount it with option2, /proc/mounts should show both option1
      and option2, however it only shows option2 because the whole option
      string is replaced with replace_mount_options in hpfs_remount_fs.
      
      To fix this bug, implement the hpfs_show_options function that prints
      options that are currently selected.

      affs: fix remount failure when there are no options changed · 01d6e087
      Mikulas Patocka 提交于
      Commit c8f33d0b ("affs: kstrdup() memory handling") checks if the
      kstrdup function returns NULL due to out-of-memory condition.
      
      However, if we are remounting a filesystem with no change to
      filesystem-specific options, the parameter data is NULL.  In this case,
      kstrdup returns NULL (because it was passed NULL parameter), although no
      out of memory condition exists.  The mount syscall then fails with
      ENOMEM.
      
      This patch fixes the bug.  We fail with ENOMEM only if data is non-NULL.
      
      The patch also changes the call to replace_mount_options - if we didn't
      pass any filesystem-specific options, we don't call
      replace_mount_options (thus we don't erase existing reported options).

      Merge branch 'hash' of git://ftp.sciencehorizons.net/linux · 7e0fb73c
      Linus Torvalds 提交于
      Pull string hash improvements from George Spelvin:
       "This series does several related things:
      
         - Makes the dcache hash (fs/namei.c) useful for general kernel use.
      
           (Thanks to Bruce for noticing the zero-length corner case)
      
         - Converts the string hashes in <linux/sunrpc/svcauth.h> to use the
           above.
      
         - Avoids 64-bit multiplies in hash_64() on 32-bit platforms.  Two
           32-bit multiplies will do well enough.
      
         - Rids the world of the bad hash multipliers in hash_32.
      
           This finishes the job started in commit 689de1d6 ("Minimal
           fix-up of bad hashing behavior of hash_64()")
      
           The vast majority of Linux architectures have hardware support for
           32x32-bit multiply and so derive no benefit from "simplified"
           multipliers.
      
           The few processors that do not (68000, h8/300 and some models of
           Microblaze) have arch-specific implementations added.  Those
           patches are last in the series.
      
         - Overhauls the dcache hash mixing.
      
           The patch in commit 0fed3ac8 ("namei: Improve hash mixing if
           CONFIG_DCACHE_WORD_ACCESS") was an off-the-cuff suggestion.
           Replaced with a much more careful design that's simultaneously
           faster and better.  (My own invention, as there was noting suitable
           in the literature I could find.  Comments welcome!)
      
         - Modify the hash_name() loop to skip the initial HASH_MIX().  This
           would let us salt the hash if we ever wanted to.
      
         - Sort out partial_name_hash().
      
           The hash function is declared as using a long state, even though
           it's truncated to 32 bits at the end and the extra internal state
           contributes nothing to the result.  And some callers do odd things:
      
            - fs/hfs/string.c only allocates 32 bits of state
            - fs/hfsplus/unicode.c uses it to hash 16-bit unicode symbols not bytes
      
         - Modify bytemask_from_count to handle inputs of 1..sizeof(long)
           rather than 0..sizeof(long)-1.  This would simplify users other
           than full_name_hash"
      
        Special thanks to Bruce Fields for testing and finding bugs in v1.  (I
        learned some humbling lessons about "obviously correct" code.)
      
        On the arch-specific front, the m68k assembly has been tested in a
        standalone test harness, I've been in contact with the Microblaze
        maintainers who mostly don't care, as the hardware multiplier is never
        omitted in real-world applications, and I haven't heard anything from
        the H8/300 world"

      Microblaze is an FPGA soft core that can be configured various ways.
      
      If it is configured without a multiplier, the standard __hash_32()
      will require a call to __mulsi3, which is a slow software loop.
      
      Instead, use a shift-and-add sequence for the constant multiply.
      GCC knows how to do this, but it's not as clever as some.

      This is just the infrastructure; there are no users yet.
      
      This is modelled on CONFIG_ARCH_RANDOM; a CONFIG_ symbol declares
      the existence of <asm/hash.h>.
      
      That file may define its own versions of various functions, and define
      HAVE_* symbols (no CONFIG_ prefix!) to suppress the generic ones.
      
      Included is a self-test (in lib/test_hash.c) that verifies the basics.
      It is NOT in general required that the arch-specific functions compute
      the same thing as the generic, but if a HAVE_* symbol is defined with
      the value 1, then equality is tested.

      fs/namei.c: Improve dcache hash function · 2a18da7a
      George Spelvin 提交于
      Patch 0fed3ac8 improved the hash mixing, but the function is slower
      than necessary; there's a 7-instruction dependency chain (10 on x86)
      each loop iteration.
      
      Word-at-a-time access is a very tight loop (which is good, because
      link_path_walk() is one of the hottest code paths in the entire kernel),
      and the hash mixing function must not have a longer latency to avoid
      slowing it down.
      
      There do not appear to be any published fast hash functions that:
      1) Operate on the input a word at a time, and
      2) Don't need to know the length of the input beforehand, and
      3) Have a single iterated mixing function, not needing conditional
         branches or unrolling to distinguish different loop iterations.
      
      One of the algorithms which comes closest is Yann Collet's xxHash, but
      that's two dependent multiplies per word, which is too much.
      
      The key insights in this design are:
      
      1) Barring expensive ops like multiplies, to diffuse one input bit
         across 64 bits of hash state takes at least log2(64) = 6 sequentially
         dependent instructions.  That is more cycles than we'd like.
      2) An operation like "hash ^= hash << 13" requires a second temporary
         register anyway, and on a 2-operand machine like x86, it's three
         instructions.
      3) A better use of a second register is to hold a two-word hash state.
         With careful design, no temporaries are needed at all, so it doesn't
         increase register pressure.  And this gets rid of register copying
         on 2-operand machines, so the code is smaller and faster.
      4) Using two words of state weakens the requirement for one-round mixing;
         we now have two rounds of mixing before cancellation is possible.
      5) A two-word hash state also allows operations on both halves to be
         done in parallel, so on a superscalar processor we get more mixing
         in fewer cycles.
      
      I ended up using a mixing function inspired by the ChaCha and Speck
      round functions.  It is 6 simple instructions and 3 cycles per iteration
      (assuming multiply by 9 can be done by an "lea" instruction):
      
      		x ^= *input++;
      	y ^= x;	x = ROL(x, K1);
      	x += y;	y = ROL(y, K2);
      	y *= 9;
      
      Not only is this reversible, two consecutive rounds are reversible:
      if you are given the initial and final states, but not the intermediate
      state, it is possible to compute both input words.  This means that at
      least 3 words of input are required to create a collision.
      
      (It also has the property, used by hash_name() to avoid a branch, that
      it hashes all-zero to all-zero.)
      
      The rotate constants K1 and K2 were found by experiment.  The search took
      a sample of random initial states (I used 1023) and considered the effect
      of flipping each of the 64 input bits on each of the 128 output bits two
      rounds later.  Each of the 8192 pairs can be considered a biased coin, and
      adding up the Shannon entropy of all of them produces a score.
      
      The best-scoring shifts also did well in other tests (flipping bits in y,
      trying 3 or 4 rounds of mixing, flipping all 64*63/2 pairs of input bits),
      so the choice was made with the additional constraint that the sum of the
      shifts is odd and not too close to the word size.
      
      The final state is then folded into a 32-bit hash value by a less carefully
      optimized multiply-based scheme.  This also has to be fast, as pathname
      components tend to be short (the most common case is one iteration!), but
      there's some room for latency, as there is a fair bit of intervening logic
      before the hash value is used for anything.
      
      (Performance verified with "bonnie++ -s 0 -n 1536:-2" on tmpfs.  I need
      a better benchmark; the numbers seem to show a slight dip in performance
      between 4.6.0 and this patch, but they're too noisy to quote.)
      
      Special thanks to Bruce fields for diligent testing which uncovered a
      nasty fencepost error in an earlier version of this patch.
