fix #29035100 commit 471af006a747f1c535c8a8c6c0973c320fe01b22 upstream AMD Family 17h processors and above gain support for Large Increment per Cycle events. Unfortunately there is no CPUID or equivalent bit that indicates whether the feature exists or not, so we continue to determine eligibility based on a CPU family number comparison. For Large Increment per Cycle events, we add a f17h-and-compatibles get_event_constraints_f17h() that returns an even counter bitmask: Large Increment per Cycle events can only be placed on PMCs 0, 2, and 4 out of the currently available 0-5. The only currently public event that requires this feature to report valid counts is PMCx003 "Retired SSE/AVX Operations". Note that the CPU family logic in amd_core_pmu_init() is changed so as to be able to selectively add initialization for features available in ranges of backward-compatible CPU families. This Large Increment per Cycle feature is expected to be retained in future families. A side-effect of assigning a new get_constraints function for f17h disables calling the old (prior to f15h) amd_get_event_constraints implementation left enabled by commit e40ed154 ("perf/x86: Add perf support for AMD family-17h processors"), which is no longer necessary since those North Bridge event codes are obsoleted. Also fix a spelling mistake whilst in the area (calulating -> calculating).

fix #29035100 commit 1182a49529edde899be4b4f0e1ab76e626976eb6 upstream perf_event_read_local() is the safest way to obtain measurements associated with performance events. In some cases the overhead introduced by perf_event_read_local() affects the measurements and the use of rdpmcl() is needed. rdpmcl() requires the index of the performance counter used so a helper is introduced to determine the index used by a provided performance event. The index used by a performance event may change when interrupts are enabled. A check is added to ensure that the index is only accessed with interrupts disabled. Even with this check the use of this counter needs to be done with care to ensure it is queried and used within the same disabled interrupts section. This change introduces a new checkpatch warning: CHECK: extern prototypes should be avoided in .h files +extern int x86_perf_rdpmc_index(struct perf_event *event); This warning was discussed and designated as a false positive in http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20180919091759.GZ24124@hirez.programming.kicks-ass.netSuggested-by: NPeter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Signed-off-by: NReinette Chatre <reinette.chatre@intel.com> Signed-off-by: NThomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Acked-by: NPeter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: fenghua.yu@intel.com Cc: tony.luck@intel.com Cc: acme@kernel.org Cc: gavin.hindman@intel.com Cc: jithu.joseph@intel.com Cc: dave.hansen@intel.com Cc: hpa@zytor.com Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/b277ffa78a51254f5414f7b1bc1923826874566e.1537377064.git.reinette.chatre@intel.comSigned-off-by: NPeng Wang <rocking@linux.alibaba.com> Reviewed-by: NArtie Ding <artie.ding@linux.alibaba.com>

fix #29130534 commit 2b3b76b5ec67568da4bb475d3ce8a92ef494b5de upstream. Backport summary: Backport to kernel 4.19.57 for ICX uncore support. The uncore subsystem in Ice Lake server is similar to previous server. There are some differences in config register encoding and pci device IDs. The uncore PMON units in Ice Lake server include Ubox, Chabox, IIO, IRP, M2PCIE, PCU, M2M, PCIE3 and IMC. - For CHA, filter 1 register has been removed. The filter 0 register can be used by and of CHA events to be filterd by Thread/Core-ID. To do so, the control register's tid_en bit must be set to 1. - For IIO, there are some changes on event constraints. The MSR address and MSR offsets among counters are also changed. - For IRP, the MSR address and MSR offsets among counters are changed. - For M2PCIE, the counters are accessed by MSR now. Add new MSR address and MSR offsets. Change event constraints. - To determine the number of CHAs, have to read CAPID6(Low) and CAPID7 (High) now. - For M2M, update the PCICFG address and Device ID. - For UPI, update the PCICFG address, Device ID and counter address. - For M3UPI, update the PCICFG address, Device ID, counter address and event constraints. - For IMC, update the formular to calculate MMIO BAR address, which is MMIO_BASE + specific MEM_BAR offset.

Some platforms defaults to a zero-key with security enabled rather than allow the OS to enable the security. The zero key would allow us to manage those platform as well. This also adds a fix to secure erase so it can use the zero key to do crypto erase. Some other security commands already use zero keys. This introduces a standard zero-key to allow unification of semantics cross nvdimm security commands.

to #27305291 commit 7d988097c546187ada602cc9bccd0f03d473eb8f upstream. Add support for the NVDIMM_FAMILY_INTEL "ovewrite" capability as described by the Intel DSM spec v1.7. This will allow triggering of overwrite on Intel NVDIMMs. The overwrite operation can take tens of minutes. When the overwrite DSM is issued successfully, the NVDIMMs will be unaccessible. The kernel will do backoff polling to detect when the overwrite process is completed. According to the DSM spec v1.7, the 128G NVDIMMs can take up to 15mins to perform overwrite and larger DIMMs will take longer. Given that overwrite puts the DIMM in an indeterminate state until it completes introduce the NDD_SECURITY_OVERWRITE flag to prevent other operations from executing when overwrite is happening. The NDD_WORK_PENDING flag is added to denote that there is a device reference on the nvdimm device for an async workqueue thread context.

to #27305291 commit 4c6926a23b76ea23403976290cd45a7a143f6500 upstream. Add support to unlock the dimm via the kernel key management APIs. The passphrase is expected to be pulled from userspace through keyutils. The key management and sysfs attributes are libnvdimm generic. Encrypted keys are used to protect the nvdimm passphrase at rest. The master key can be a trusted-key sealed in a TPM, preferred, or an encrypted-key, more flexible, but more exposure to a potential attacker.

to #27305291 commit f2989396553a0bd13f4b25f567a3dee3d722ce40 upstream. Some NVDIMMs, like the ones defined by the NVDIMM_FAMILY_INTEL command set, expose a security capability to lock the DIMMs at poweroff and require a passphrase to unlock them. The security model is derived from ATA security. In anticipation of other DIMMs implementing a similar scheme, and to abstract the core security implementation away from the device-specific details, introduce nvdimm_security_ops. Initially only a status retrieval operation, ->state(), is defined, along with the base infrastructure and definitions for future operations.

Since this adds several Intel definitions, move the relevant bits to their own header. These commands mutate physical data, but that manipulation is not cache coherent. The requirement to flush and invalidate caches makes these commands unsuitable to be called from userspace, so extra logic is added to detect and block these commands from being submitted via the ioctl command submission path.

to #28825456 commit aa09259109583b98b9d9e7ed0d8eb1b880d1eb97 upstream. Updating the zone watermarks by any means, like min_free_kbytes, water_mark_scale_factor etc, when ->watermark_boost is set will result in higher low and high watermarks than the user asked. Below are the steps to reproduce the problem on system setup of Android kernel running on Snapdragon hardware. 1) Default settings of the system are as below: #cat /proc/sys/vm/min_free_kbytes = 5162 #cat /proc/zoneinfo | grep -e boost -e low -e "high " -e min -e Node Node 0, zone Normal min 797 low 8340 high 8539 2) Monitor the zone->watermark_boost(by adding a debug print in the kernel) and whenever it is greater than zero value, write the same value of min_free_kbytes obtained from step 1. #echo 5162 > /proc/sys/vm/min_free_kbytes 3) Then read the zone watermarks in the system while the ->watermark_boost is zero. This should show the same values of watermarks as step 1 but shown a higher values than asked. #cat /proc/zoneinfo | grep -e boost -e low -e "high " -e min -e Node Node 0, zone Normal min 797 low 21148 high 21347 These higher values are because of updating the zone watermarks using the macro min_wmark_pages(zone) which also adds the zone->watermark_boost. #define min_wmark_pages(z) (z->_watermark[WMARK_MIN] + z->watermark_boost) So the steps that lead to the issue are: 1) On the extfrag event, watermarks are boosted by storing the required value in ->watermark_boost. 2) User tries to update the zone watermarks level in the system through min_free_kbytes or watermark_scale_factor. 3) Later, when kswapd woke up, it resets the zone->watermark_boost to zero. In step 2), we use the min_wmark_pages() macro to store the watermarks in the zone structure thus the values are always offsetted by ->watermark_boost value. This can be avoided by resetting the ->watermark_boost to zero before it is used.

to #28825456 commit 14f69140ff9c92a0928547ceefb153a842e8492c upstream. Commit 1c30844d2dfe ("mm: reclaim small amounts of memory when an external fragmentation event occurs") adds a boost_watermark() function which increases the min watermark in a zone by at least pageblock_nr_pages or the number of pages in a page block. On Arm64, with 64K pages and 512M huge pages, this is 8192 pages or 512M. It does this regardless of the number of managed pages managed in the zone or the likelihood of success. This can put the zone immediately under water in terms of allocating pages from the zone, and can cause a small machine to fail immediately due to OoM. Unlike set_recommended_min_free_kbytes(), which substantially increases min_free_kbytes and is tied to THP, boost_watermark() can be called even if THP is not active. The problem is most likely to appear on architectures such as Arm64 where pageblock_nr_pages is very large. It is desirable to run the kdump capture kernel in as small a space as possible to avoid wasting memory. In some architectures, such as Arm64, there are restrictions on where the capture kernel can run, and therefore, the space available. A capture kernel running in 768M can fail due to OoM immediately after boost_watermark() sets the min in zone DMA32, where most of the memory is, to 512M. It fails even though there is over 500M of free memory. With boost_watermark() suppressed, the capture kernel can run successfully in 448M. This patch limits boost_watermark() to boosting a zone's min watermark only when there are enough pages that the boost will produce positive results. In this case that is estimated to be four times as many pages as pageblock_nr_pages. Mel said: : There is no harm in marking it stable. Clearly it does not happen very : often but it's not impossible. 32-bit x86 is a lot less common now : which would previously have been vulnerable to triggering this easily. : ppc64 has a larger base page size but typically only has one zone. : arm64 is likely the most vulnerable, particularly when CMA is : configured with a small movable zone.

to #28825456 commit 28360f398778d7623a5ff8a8e90958c0d925e120 upstream. Dave Chinner reported a problem pointing a finger at commit 1c30844d2dfe ("mm: reclaim small amounts of memory when an external fragmentation event occurs"). The report is extensive: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20190807091858.2857-1-david@fromorbit.com/ and it's worth recording the most relevant parts (colorful language and typos included). When running a simple, steady state 4kB file creation test to simulate extracting tarballs larger than memory full of small files into the filesystem, I noticed that once memory fills up the cache balance goes to hell. The workload is creating one dirty cached inode for every dirty page, both of which should require a single IO each to clean and reclaim, and creation of inodes is throttled by the rate at which dirty writeback runs at (via balance dirty pages). Hence the ingest rate of new cached inodes and page cache pages is identical and steady. As a result, memory reclaim should quickly find a steady balance between page cache and inode caches. The moment memory fills, the page cache is reclaimed at a much faster rate than the inode cache, and evidence suggests that the inode cache shrinker is not being called when large batches of pages are being reclaimed. In roughly the same time period that it takes to fill memory with 50% pages and 50% slab caches, memory reclaim reduces the page cache down to just dirty pages and slab caches fill the entirety of memory. The LRU is largely full of dirty pages, and we're getting spikes of random writeback from memory reclaim so it's all going to shit. Behaviour never recovers, the page cache remains pinned at just dirty pages, and nothing I could tune would make any difference. vfs_cache_pressure makes no difference - I would set it so high it should trim the entire inode caches in a single pass, yet it didn't do anything. It was clear from tracing and live telemetry that the shrinkers were pretty much not running except when there was absolutely no memory free at all, and then they did the minimum necessary to free memory to make progress. So I went looking at the code, trying to find places where pages got reclaimed and the shrinkers weren't called. There's only one - kswapd doing boosted reclaim as per commit 1c30844d2dfe ("mm: reclaim small amounts of memory when an external fragmentation event occurs"). The watermark boosting introduced by the commit is triggered in response to an allocation "fragmentation event". The boosting was not intended to target THP specifically and triggers even if THP is disabled. However, with Dave's perfectly reasonable workload, fragmentation events can be very common given the ratio of slab to page cache allocations so boosting remains active for long periods of time. As high-order allocations might use compaction and compaction cannot move slab pages the decision was made in the commit to special-case kswapd when watermarks are boosted -- kswapd avoids reclaiming slab as reclaiming slab does not directly help compaction. As Dave notes, this decision means that slab can be artificially protected for long periods of time and messes up the balance with slab and page caches. Removing the special casing can still indirectly help avoid fragmentation by avoiding fragmentation-causing events due to slab allocation as pages from a slab pageblock will have some slab objects freed. Furthermore, with the special casing, reclaim behaviour is unpredictable as kswapd sometimes examines slab and sometimes does not in a manner that is tricky to tune or analyse. This patch removes the special casing. The downside is that this is not a universal performance win. Some benchmarks that depend on the residency of data when rereading metadata may see a regression when slab reclaim is restored to its original behaviour. Similarly, some benchmarks that only read-once or write-once may perform better when page reclaim is too aggressive. The primary upside is that slab shrinker is less surprising (arguably more sane but that's a matter of opinion), behaves consistently regardless of the fragmentation state of the system and properly obeys VM sysctls. A fsmark benchmark configuration was constructed similar to what Dave reported and is codified by the mmtest configuration config-io-fsmark-small-file-stream. It was evaluated on a 1-socket machine to avoid dealing with NUMA-related issues and the timing of reclaim. The storage was an SSD Samsung Evo and a fresh trimmed XFS filesystem was used for the test data. This is not an exact replication of Dave's setup. The configuration scales its parameters depending on the memory size of the SUT to behave similarly across machines. The parameters mean the first sample reported by fs_mark is using 50% of RAM which will barely be throttled and look like a big outlier. Dave used fake NUMA to have multiple kswapd instances which I didn't replicate. Finally, the number of iterations differ from Dave's test as the target disk was not large enough. While not identical, it should be representative. fsmark 5.3.0-rc3 5.3.0-rc3 vanilla shrinker-v1r1 Min 1-files/sec 4444.80 ( 0.00%) 4765.60 ( 7.22%) 1st-qrtle 1-files/sec 5005.10 ( 0.00%) 5091.70 ( 1.73%) 2nd-qrtle 1-files/sec 4917.80 ( 0.00%) 4855.60 ( -1.26%) 3rd-qrtle 1-files/sec 4667.40 ( 0.00%) 4831.20 ( 3.51%) Max-1 1-files/sec 11421.50 ( 0.00%) 9999.30 ( -12.45%) Max-5 1-files/sec 11421.50 ( 0.00%) 9999.30 ( -12.45%) Max-10 1-files/sec 11421.50 ( 0.00%) 9999.30 ( -12.45%) Max-90 1-files/sec 4649.60 ( 0.00%) 4780.70 ( 2.82%) Max-95 1-files/sec 4491.00 ( 0.00%) 4768.20 ( 6.17%) Max-99 1-files/sec 4491.00 ( 0.00%) 4768.20 ( 6.17%) Max 1-files/sec 11421.50 ( 0.00%) 9999.30 ( -12.45%) Hmean 1-files/sec 5004.75 ( 0.00%) 5075.96 ( 1.42%) Stddev 1-files/sec 1778.70 ( 0.00%) 1369.66 ( 23.00%) CoeffVar 1-files/sec 33.70 ( 0.00%) 26.05 ( 22.71%) BHmean-99 1-files/sec 5053.72 ( 0.00%) 5101.52 ( 0.95%) BHmean-95 1-files/sec 5053.72 ( 0.00%) 5101.52 ( 0.95%) BHmean-90 1-files/sec 5107.05 ( 0.00%) 5131.41 ( 0.48%) BHmean-75 1-files/sec 5208.45 ( 0.00%) 5206.68 ( -0.03%) BHmean-50 1-files/sec 5405.53 ( 0.00%) 5381.62 ( -0.44%) BHmean-25 1-files/sec 6179.75 ( 0.00%) 6095.14 ( -1.37%) 5.3.0-rc3 5.3.0-rc3 vanillashrinker-v1r1 Duration User 501.82 497.29 Duration System 4401.44 4424.08 Duration Elapsed 8124.76 8358.05 This is showing a slight skew for the max result representing a large outlier for the 1st, 2nd and 3rd quartile are similar indicating that the bulk of the results show little difference. Note that an earlier version of the fsmark configuration showed a regression but that included more samples taken while memory was still filling. Note that the elapsed time is higher. Part of this is that the configuration included time to delete all the test files when the test completes -- the test automation handles the possibility of testing fsmark with multiple thread counts. Without the patch, many of these objects would be memory resident which is part of what the patch is addressing. There are other important observations that justify the patch. 1. With the vanilla kernel, the number of dirty pages in the system is very low for much of the test. With this patch, dirty pages is generally kept at 10% which matches vm.dirty_background_ratio which is normal expected historical behaviour. 2. With the vanilla kernel, the ratio of Slab/Pagecache is close to 0.95 for much of the test i.e. Slab is being left alone and dominating memory consumption. With the patch applied, the ratio varies between 0.35 and 0.45 with the bulk of the measured ratios roughly half way between those values. This is a different balance to what Dave reported but it was at least consistent. 3. Slabs are scanned throughout the entire test with the patch applied. The vanille kernel has periods with no scan activity and then relatively massive spikes. 4. Without the patch, kswapd scan rates are very variable. With the patch, the scan rates remain quite steady. 4. Overall vmstats are closer to normal expectations 5.3.0-rc3 5.3.0-rc3 vanilla shrinker-v1r1 Ops Direct pages scanned 99388.00 328410.00 Ops Kswapd pages scanned 45382917.00 33451026.00 Ops Kswapd pages reclaimed 30869570.00 25239655.00 Ops Direct pages reclaimed 74131.00 5830.00 Ops Kswapd efficiency % 68.02 75.45 Ops Kswapd velocity 5585.75 4002.25 Ops Page reclaim immediate 1179721.00 430927.00 Ops Slabs scanned 62367361.00 73581394.00 Ops Direct inode steals 2103.00 1002.00 Ops Kswapd inode steals 570180.00 5183206.00 o Vanilla kernel is hitting direct reclaim more frequently, not very much in absolute terms but the fact the patch reduces it is interesting o "Page reclaim immediate" in the vanilla kernel indicates dirty pages are being encountered at the tail of the LRU. This is generally bad and means in this case that the LRU is not long enough for dirty pages to be cleaned by the background flush in time. This is much reduced by the patch. o With the patch, kswapd is reclaiming 10 times more slab pages than with the vanilla kernel. This is indicative of the watermark boosting over-protecting slab A more complete set of tests were run that were part of the basis for introducing boosting and while there are some differences, they are well within tolerances. Bottom line, the special casing kswapd to avoid slab behaviour is unpredictable and can lead to abnormal results for normal workloads. This patch restores the expected behaviour that slab and page cache is balanced consistently for a workload with a steady allocation ratio of slab/pagecache pages. It also means that if there are workloads that favour the preservation of slab over pagecache that it can be tuned via vm.vfs_cache_pressure where as the vanilla kernel effectively ignores the parameter when boosting is active.

to #28825456 commit 8118b82eb756e271929697e8ada5f637dc443af1 upstream. Commit 0a79cdad5eb2 ("mm: use alloc_flags to record if kswapd can wake") removed setting of the ALLOC_NOFRAGMENT flag. Bring it back. The runtime effect is that ALLOC_NOFRAGMENT behaviour is restored so that allocations are spread across local zones to avoid fragmentation due to mixing pageblocks as long as possible.

to #28825456 commit 8139ad043d632c0e9e12d760068a7a8e91659aa1 upstream. ac.preferred_zoneref->zone passed to alloc_flags_nofragment() can be NULL. 'zone' pointer unconditionally derefernced in alloc_flags_nofragment(). Bail out on NULL zone to avoid potential crash. Currently we don't see any crashes only because alloc_flags_nofragment() has another bug which allows compiler to optimize away all accesses to 'zone'.
