      s390/topology: enable / disable topology dynamically · 51dce386
      由 Heiko Carstens 提交于 
      Add a new sysctl file /proc/sys/s390/topology which displays if
topology is on (1) or off (0) as specified by the "topology=" kernel
parameter.

This allows to change topology information during runtime and
configuring it via /etc/sysctl.conf instead of using the kernel line
parameter.

      s390/topology: alternative topology for topology-less machines · 1b25fda0
      由 Heiko Carstens 提交于 
      If running on machines that do not provide topology information we
currently generate a "fake" topology which defines the maximum
distance between each cpu: each cpu will be put into an own drawer.

Historically this used to be the best option for (virtual) machines in
overcommited hypervisors.

For some workloads however it is better to generate a different
topology where all cpus are siblings within a package (all cpus are
core siblings). This shows performance improvements of up to 10%,
depending on the workload.

In order to keep the current behaviour, but also allow to switch to
the different core sibling topology use the existing "topology="
kernel parameter:

Specifying "topology=on" on machines without topology information will
generate the core siblings (fake) topology information, instead of the
default topology information where all cpus have the maximum distance.

On machines which provide topology information specifying
"topology=on" does not have any effect.

      s390/perf: fix bug when creating per-thread event · fc3100d6
      由 Pu Hou 提交于 
      A per-thread event could not be created correctly like below:

    perf record --per-thread -e rB0000 -- sleep 1
    Error:
    The sys_perf_event_open() syscall returned with 19 (No such device) for event (rB0000).
    /bin/dmesg may provide additional information.
    No CONFIG_PERF_EVENTS=y kernel support configured?

This bug was introduced by:

    commit c311c797
    Author: Alexey Dobriyan <adobriyan@gmail.com>
    Date:   Mon May 8 15:56:15 2017 -0700

    cpumask: make "nr_cpumask_bits" unsigned

If a per-thread event is not attached to any CPU, the cpu field
in struct perf_event is -1. The above commit converts the CPU number
to unsigned int, which result in an illegal CPU number.

      futex: Remove duplicated code and fix undefined behaviour · 30d6e0a4
      由 Jiri Slaby 提交于 
      There is code duplicated over all architecture's headers for
futex_atomic_op_inuser. Namely op decoding, access_ok check for uaddr,
and comparison of the result.

Remove this duplication and leave up to the arches only the needed
assembly which is now in arch_futex_atomic_op_inuser.

This effectively distributes the Will Deacon's arm64 fix for undefined
behaviour reported by UBSAN to all architectures. The fix was done in
commit 5f16a046 (arm64: futex: Fix undefined behaviour with
FUTEX_OP_OPARG_SHIFT usage). Look there for an example dump.

And as suggested by Thomas, check for negative oparg too, because it was
also reported to cause undefined behaviour report.

Note that s390 removed access_ok check in d12a2970 ("s390/uaccess:
remove pointless access_ok() checks") as access_ok there returns true.
We introduce it back to the helper for the sake of simplicity (it gets
optimized away anyway).

      mm: fix MADV_[FREE|DONTNEED] TLB flush miss problem · 99baac21
      由 Minchan Kim 提交于 
      Nadav reported parallel MADV_DONTNEED on same range has a stale TLB
problem and Mel fixed it[1] and found same problem on MADV_FREE[2].

Quote from Mel Gorman:
 "The race in question is CPU 0 running madv_free and updating some PTEs
  while CPU 1 is also running madv_free and looking at the same PTEs.
  CPU 1 may have writable TLB entries for a page but fail the pte_dirty
  check (because CPU 0 has updated it already) and potentially fail to
  flush.

  Hence, when madv_free on CPU 1 returns, there are still potentially
  writable TLB entries and the underlying PTE is still present so that a
  subsequent write does not necessarily propagate the dirty bit to the
  underlying PTE any more. Reclaim at some unknown time at the future
  may then see that the PTE is still clean and discard the page even
  though a write has happened in the meantime. I think this is possible
  but I could have missed some protection in madv_free that prevents it
  happening."

This patch aims for solving both problems all at once and is ready for
other problem with KSM, MADV_FREE and soft-dirty story[3].

TLB batch API(tlb_[gather|finish]_mmu] uses [inc|dec]_tlb_flush_pending
and mmu_tlb_flush_pending so that when tlb_finish_mmu is called, we can
catch there are parallel threads going on.  In that case, forcefully,
flush TLB to prevent for user to access memory via stale TLB entry
although it fail to gather page table entry.

I confirmed this patch works with [4] test program Nadav gave so this
patch supersedes "mm: Always flush VMA ranges affected by zap_page_range
v2" in current mmotm.

NOTE:

This patch modifies arch-specific TLB gathering interface(x86, ia64,
s390, sh, um).  It seems most of architecture are straightforward but
s390 need to be careful because tlb_flush_mmu works only if
mm->context.flush_mm is set to non-zero which happens only a pte entry
really is cleared by ptep_get_and_clear and friends.  However, this
problem never changes the pte entries but need to flush to prevent
memory access from stale tlb.
