Although dynamic debug is often only used for debug builds, sometimes its enabled for production builds as well. Minimize its impact by using jump labels. This reduces the text section by 7000+ bytes in the kernel image below. It does increase data, but this should only be referenced when changing the direction of the branches, and hence usually not in cache. text data bss dec hex filename 8194852 4879776 925696 14000324 d5a0c4 vmlinux.pre 8187337 4960224 925696 14073257 d6bda9 vmlinux.post Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/d165b465e8c89bc582d973758d40be44c33f018b.1467837322.git.jbaron@akamai.comSigned-off-by: NJason Baron <jbaron@akamai.com> Cc: "David S.

The current jump_label.h includes bug.h for things such as WARN_ON(). This makes the header problematic for inclusion by kernel.h or any headers that kernel.h includes, since bug.h includes kernel.h (circular dependency). The inclusion of atomic.h is similarly problematic. Thus, this should make jump_label.h 'includable' from most places.

The dma-mapping core and the implementations do not change the DMA attributes passed by pointer. Thus the pointer can point to const data. However the attributes do not have to be a bitfield. Instead unsigned long will do fine: 1. This is just simpler. Both in terms of reading the code and setting attributes. Instead of initializing local attributes on the stack and passing pointer to it to dma_set_attr(), just set the bits. 2. It brings safeness and checking for const correctness because the attributes are passed by value.

The use of config_enabled() against config options is ambiguous. In practical terms, config_enabled() is equivalent to IS_BUILTIN(), but the author might have used it for the meaning of IS_ENABLED(). Using IS_ENABLED(), IS_BUILTIN(), IS_MODULE() etc. makes the intention clearer. This commit replaces config_enabled() with IS_ENABLED() where possible. This commit is only touching bool config options. I noticed two cases where config_enabled() is used against a tristate option: - config_enabled(CONFIG_HWMON) [ drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath10k/thermal.c ] - config_enabled(CONFIG_BACKLIGHT_CLASS_DEVICE) [ drivers/gpu/drm/gma500/opregion.c ] I did not touch them because they should be converted to IS_BUILTIN() in order to keep the logic, but I was not sure it was the authors' intention.

While not an issue now, eventually we will have independent users of the extable.h file and we will stop sourcing it via module.h header. In testing that pending work, with very sparse builds, characteristic of an "allnoconfig" on various architectures, we can sometimes hit an instance where the very basic standard definitions aren't present, resulting in: include/linux/extable.h:26:9: error: 'NULL' undeclared (first use in this function) To be clear, this isn't a regression, since currently extable.h is only used by module.h -- however, we will need this addition present before we start migrating exception table users off module.h and onto extable.h during the next release cycle.

For historical reasons (i.e. pre-git) the exception table stuff was buried in the middle of the module.h file. I noticed this while doing an audit for needless includes of module.h and found core kernel files (both arch specific and arch independent) were just including module.h for this. The converse is also true, in that conventional drivers, be they for filesystems or actual hardware peripherals or similar, do not normally care about the exception tables. Here we fork the exception table content out of module.h into a new file called extable.h -- and temporarily include it into the module.h itself. Then we will work our way across the arch independent and arch specific files needing just exception table content, and move them off module.h and onto extable.h Once that is done, we can remove the extable.h from module.h and in doing it like this, we avoid introducing build failures into the git history. The gain here is that module.h gets a bit smaller, across all modular drivers that we build for allmodconfig. Also the core files that only need exception table stuff don't have an include of module.h that brings in lots of extra stuff and just looks generally out of place.

Add channelized messaging driver to support native RapidIO messaging exchange between multiple senders/recipients on devices that use kernel RapidIO subsystem services. This device driver is the result of collaboration within the RapidIO.org Software Task Group (STG) between Texas Instruments, Prodrive Technologies, Nokia Networks, BAE and IDT. Additional input was received from other members of RapidIO.org. The objective was to create a character mode driver interface which exposes messaging capabilities of RapidIO endpoint devices (mports) directly to applications, in a manner that allows the numerous and varied RapidIO implementations to interoperate. This char mode device driver allows user-space applications to setup messaging communication channels using single shared RapidIO messaging mailbox. By default this driver uses RapidIO MBOX_1 (MBOX_0 is reserved for use by RIONET Ethernet emulation driver).

kexec physical addresses are the boot-time view of the system. For certain ARM systems (such as Keystone 2), the boot view of the system does not match the kernel's view of the system: the boot view uses a special alias in the lower 4GB of the physical address space. To cater for these kinds of setups, we need to translate between the boot view physical addresses and the normal kernel view physical addresses. This patch extracts the current transation points into linux/kexec.h, and allows an architecture to override the functions. Due to the translations required, we unfortunately end up with six translation functions, which are reduced down to four that the architecture can override.

In general, there's no need for the "restore sigmask" flag to live in ti->flags. alpha, ia64, microblaze, powerpc, sh, sparc (64-bit only), tile, and x86 use essentially identical alternative implementations, placing the flag in ti->status.

Some systems are memory constrained but they need to load very large firmwares. The firmware subsystem allows drivers to request this firmware be loaded from the filesystem, but this requires that the entire firmware be loaded into kernel memory first before it's provided to the driver. This can lead to a situation where we map the firmware twice, once to load the firmware into kernel memory and once to copy the firmware into the final resting place. This creates needless memory pressure and delays loading because we have to copy from kernel memory to somewhere else. Let's add a request_firmware_into_buf() API that allows drivers to request firmware be loaded directly into a pre-allocated buffer. This skips the intermediate step of allocating a buffer in kernel memory to hold the firmware image while it's read from the filesystem. It also requires that drivers know how much memory they'll require before requesting the firmware and negates any benefits of firmware caching because the firmware layer doesn't manage the buffer lifetime. For a 16MB buffer, about half the time is spent performing a memcpy from the buffer to the final resting place. I see loading times go from 0.081171 seconds to 0.047696 seconds after applying this patch. Plus the vmalloc pressure is reduced.

The bottom two bits of radix tree entries are reserved for special use by the radix tree code itself. A comment detailing their usage was added by commit 3bcadd6f ("radix-tree: free up the bottom bit of exceptional entries for reuse") This comment states that if the bottom two bits are '11', this means that this is a locked exceptional entry. It turns out that this bit combination was never actually used. Radix tree locking for DAX was indeed implemented, but it actually used the third LSB: /* We use lowest available exceptional entry bit for locking */ #define RADIX_DAX_ENTRY_LOCK (1 << RADIX_TREE_EXCEPTIONAL_SHIFT) This locking code was also made specific to the DAX code instead of being generally implemented in radix-tree.h. So, fix the comment.

Add a "printk.devkmsg" kernel command line parameter which controls how userspace writes into /dev/kmsg. It has three options: * ratelimit - ratelimit logging from userspace. * on - unlimited logging from userspace * off - logging from userspace gets ignored The default setting is to ratelimit the messages written to it. This changes the kernel default setting of "on" to "ratelimit" and we do that because we want to keep userspace spamming /dev/kmsg to sane levels. This is especially moot when a small kernel log buffer wraps around and messages get lost. So the ratelimiting setting should be a sane setting where kernel messages should have a bit higher chance of survival from all the spamming. It additionally does not limit logging to /dev/kmsg while the system is booting if we haven't disabled it on the command line. Furthermore, we can control the logging from a lower priority sysctl interface - kernel.printk_devkmsg. That interface will succeed only if printk.devkmsg *hasn't* been supplied on the command line. If it has, then printk.devkmsg is a one-time setting which remains for the duration of the system lifetime. This "locking" of the setting is to prevent userspace from changing the logging on us through sysctl(2). This patch is based on previous patches from Linus and Steven.

Extend the ratelimiting facility to print the amount of suppressed lines when it is being released. This use case is aimed at short-termed, burst-like users for which we want to output the suppressed lines stats only once, after it has been disposed of. For an example, see /dev/kmsg usage in a follow-on patch. Also, change the printk() line we issue on release to not use "callbacks" as it is misleading: we're not suppressing callbacks but printk() calls.

The state of object currently tracked in two places - shadow memory, and the ->state field in struct kasan_alloc_meta. We can get rid of the latter. The will save us a little bit of memory. Also, this allow us to move free stack into struct kasan_alloc_meta, without increasing memory consumption. So now we should always know when the last time the object was freed. This may be useful for long delayed use-after-free bugs. As a side effect this fixes following UBSAN warning: UBSAN: Undefined behaviour in mm/kasan/quarantine.c:102:13 member access within misaligned address ffff88000d1efebc for type 'struct qlist_node' which requires 8 byte alignment Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1470062715-14077-5-git-send-email-aryabinin@virtuozzo.comReported-by: Nkernel test robot <xiaolong.ye@intel.com> Signed-off-by: NAndrey Ryabinin <aryabinin@virtuozzo.com> Cc: Alexander Potapenko <glider@google.com> Cc: Dmitry Vyukov <dvyukov@google.com> Cc: Christoph Lameter <cl@linux.com> Cc: Pekka Enberg <penberg@kernel.org> Cc: David Rientjes <rientjes@google.com> Cc: Joonsoo Kim <iamjoonsoo.kim@lge.com> Signed-off-by: NAndrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Prior to this patch, sctp defined TCP_CLOSING as SCTP_SS_CLOSING. TCP_CLOSING is such a special sk state in TCP that inet common codes even exclude it. For instance, inet_accept thinks the accept sk's state never be TCP_CLOSING, or it will give a WARN_ON. TCP works well with that while SCTP may trigger the call trace, as CLOSING state in SCTP has different meaning from TCP. This fix is to change to use TCP_CLOSE_WAIT as SCTP_SS_CLOSING, instead of TCP_CLOSING. Some side-effects could be expected, regardless of not being used before. inet_accept will accept it now. I did all the func_tests in lksctp-tools and ran sctp codnomicon fuzzer tests against this patch, no regression or failure found.

This reverts commit 3c9fe8cd. As Miklos points out in commit c1b2cc1a, the "lookup_hash()" helper is now unused, and in fact, with the hash salting changes, since the hash of a dentry name now depends on the directory dentry it is in, the helper function isn't even really likely to be useful. So rather than keep it around in case somebody else might end up finding a use for it, let's just remove the helper and not trick people into thinking it might be a useful thing. For example, I had obviously completely missed how the helper didn't follow the normal dentry hashing patterns, and how the hash salting patch broke overlayfs. Things would quietly build and look sane, but not work. Suggested-by: NMiklos Szeredi <mszeredi@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

由 Vlastimil Babka 提交于
Async compaction detects contention either due to failing trylock on zone->lock or lru_lock, or by need_resched(). Since 1f9efdef ("mm, compaction: khugepaged should not give up due to need_resched()") the code got quite complicated to distinguish these two up to the __alloc_pages_slowpath() level, so different decisions could be taken for khugepaged allocations. After the recent changes, khugepaged allocations don't check for contended compaction anymore, so we again don't need to distinguish lock and sched contention, and simplify the current convoluted code a lot. However, I believe it's also possible to simplify even more and completely remove the check for contended compaction after the initial async compaction for costly orders, which was originally aimed at THP page fault allocations. There are several reasons why this can be done now: - with the new defaults, THP page faults no longer do reclaim/compaction at all, unless the system admin has overridden the default, or application has indicated via madvise that it can benefit from THP's. In both cases, it means that the potential extra latency is expected and worth the benefits. - even if reclaim/compaction proceeds after this patch where it previously wouldn't, the second compaction attempt is still async and will detect the contention and back off, if the contention persists - there are still heuristics like deferred compaction and pageblock skip bits in place that prevent excessive THP page fault latencies Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20160721073614.24395-9-vbabka@suse.czSigned-off-by: NVlastimil Babka <vbabka@suse.cz> Acked-by: NMichal Hocko <mhocko@suse.com> Acked-by: NMel Gorman <mgorman@techsingularity.net> Signed-off-by: NAndrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

由 Vlastimil Babka 提交于
In the context of direct compaction, for some types of allocations we would like the compaction to either succeed or definitely fail while trying as hard as possible. Current async/sync_light migration mode is insufficient, as there are heuristics such as caching scanner positions, marking pageblocks as unsuitable or deferring compaction for a zone. At least the final compaction attempt should be able to override these heuristics. To communicate how hard compaction should try, we replace migration mode with a new enum compact_priority and change the relevant function signatures. In compact_zone_order() where struct compact_control is constructed, the priority is mapped to suitable control flags. This patch itself has no functional change, as the current priority levels are mapped back to the same migration modes as before. Expanding them will be done next. Note that !CONFIG_COMPACTION variant of try_to_compact_pages() is removed, as the only caller exists under CONFIG_COMPACTION.

After the previous patch, we can distinguish costly allocations that should be really lightweight, such as THP page faults, with __GFP_NORETRY. This means we don't need to recognize khugepaged allocations via PF_KTHREAD anymore. We can also change THP page faults in areas where madvise(MADV_HUGEPAGE) was used to try as hard as khugepaged, as the process has indicated that it benefits from THP's and is willing to pay some initial latency costs. We can also make the flags handling less cryptic by distinguishing GFP_TRANSHUGE_LIGHT (no reclaim at all, default mode in page fault) from GFP_TRANSHUGE (only direct reclaim, khugepaged default). Adding __GFP_NORETRY or __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM is done where needed. The patch effectively changes the current GFP_TRANSHUGE users as follows: * get_huge_zero_page() - the zero page lifetime should be relatively long and it's shared by multiple users, so it's worth spending some effort on it. We use GFP_TRANSHUGE, and __GFP_NORETRY is not added. This also restores direct reclaim to this allocation, which was unintentionally removed by commit e4a49efe4e7e ("mm: thp: set THP defrag by default to madvise and add a stall-free defrag option") * alloc_hugepage_khugepaged_gfpmask() - this is khugepaged, so latency is not an issue. So if khugepaged "defrag" is enabled (the default), do reclaim via GFP_TRANSHUGE without __GFP_NORETRY. We can remove the PF_KTHREAD check from page alloc. As a side-effect, khugepaged will now no longer check if the initial compaction was deferred or contended. This is OK, as khugepaged sleep times between collapsion attempts are long enough to prevent noticeable disruption, so we should allow it to spend some effort. * migrate_misplaced_transhuge_page() - already was masking out __GFP_RECLAIM, so just convert to GFP_TRANSHUGE_LIGHT which is equivalent. * alloc_hugepage_direct_gfpmask() - vma's with VM_HUGEPAGE (via madvise) are now allocating without __GFP_NORETRY. Other vma's keep using __GFP_NORETRY if direct reclaim/compaction is at all allowed (by default it's allowed only for madvised vma's). The rest is conversion to GFP_TRANSHUGE(_LIGHT).
