Some vendors like HPe or Dell, encode the release version of their BIOS in the "System BIOS {Major|Minor} Release" fields of Type 0. This information is used to know which bios release actually runs. It could be used for some quirks, debugging sessions or inventory tasks. A typical output for a Dell system running the 65.27 bios is : [root@t1700 ~]# cat /sys/devices/virtual/dmi/id/bios_release 65.27 [root@t1700 ~]# Servers that have a BMC encode the release version of their firmware in the "Embedded Controller Firmware {Major|Minor} Release" fields of Type 0.

ELFNOTE_START allows callers to specify flags for .pushsection assembler directives. All callsites but ELF_NOTE use "a" for SHF_ALLOC. For vdso's that explicitly use ELF_NOTE_START and BUILD_SALT, the same section is specified twice after preprocessing, once with "a" flag, once without. Example: .pushsection .note.Linux, "a", @note ; .pushsection .note.Linux, "", @note ; While GNU as allows this ordering, it warns for the opposite ordering, making these directives position dependent. We'd prefer not to precisely match this behavior in Clang's integrated assembler. Instead, the non __ASSEMBLY__ definition of ELF_NOTE uses __attribute__((section(".note.Linux"))) which is created with SHF_ALLOC, so let's make the __ASSEMBLY__ definition of ELF_NOTE consistent with C and just always use "a" flag.

The current codebase makes use of the zero-length array language extension to the C90 standard, but the preferred mechanism to declare variable-length types such as these ones is a flexible array member[1][2], introduced in C99: struct foo { int stuff; struct boo array[]; }; By making use of the mechanism above, we will get a compiler warning in case the flexible array does not occur last in the structure, which will help us prevent some kind of undefined behavior bugs from being inadvertently introduced[3] to the codebase from now on. Also, notice that, dynamic memory allocations won't be affected by this change: "Flexible array members have incomplete type, and so the sizeof operator may not be applied. As a quirk of the original implementation of zero-length arrays, sizeof evaluates to zero."[1] This issue was found with the help of Coccinelle.

Patch series "mm/memory_hotplug: Interface to add driver-managed system ram", v4. kexec (via kexec_load()) can currently not properly handle memory added via dax/kmem, and will have similar issues with virtio-mem. kexec-tools will currently add all memory to the fixed-up initial firmware memmap. In case of dax/kmem, this means that - in contrast to a proper reboot - how that persistent memory will be used can no longer be configured by the kexec'd kernel. In case of virtio-mem it will be harmful, because that memory might contain inaccessible pieces that require coordination with hypervisor first. In both cases, we want to let the driver in the kexec'd kernel handle detecting and adding the memory, like during an ordinary reboot. Introduce add_memory_driver_managed(). More on the samentics are in patch #1. In the future, we might want to make this behavior configurable for dax/kmem- either by configuring it in the kernel (which would then also allow to configure kexec_file_load()) or in kexec-tools by also adding "System RAM (kmem)" memory from /proc/iomem to the fixed-up initial firmware memmap. More on the motivation can be found in [1] and [2]. [1] https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20200429160803.109056-1-david@redhat.com [2] https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20200430102908.10107-1-david@redhat.com This patch (of 3): Some device drivers rely on memory they managed to not get added to the initial (firmware) memmap as system RAM - so it's not used as initial system RAM by the kernel and the driver is under control. While this is the case during cold boot and after a reboot, kexec is not aware of that and might add such memory to the initial (firmware) memmap of the kexec kernel. We need ways to teach kernel and userspace that this system ram is different. For example, dax/kmem allows to decide at runtime if persistent memory is to be used as system ram. Another future user is virtio-mem, which has to coordinate with its hypervisor to deal with inaccessible parts within memory resources. We want to let users in the kernel (esp. kexec) but also user space (esp. kexec-tools) know that this memory has different semantics and needs to be handled differently: 1. Don't create entries in /sys/firmware/memmap/ 2. Name the memory resource "System RAM ($DRIVER)" (exposed via /proc/iomem) ($DRIVER might be "kmem", "virtio_mem"). 3. Flag the memory resource IORESOURCE_MEM_DRIVER_MANAGED /sys/firmware/memmap/ [1] represents the "raw firmware-provided memory map" because "on most architectures that firmware-provided memory map is modified afterwards by the kernel itself". The primary user is kexec on x86-64. Since commit d96ae530 ("memory-hotplug: create /sys/firmware/memmap entry for new memory"), we add all hotplugged memory to that firmware memmap - which makes perfect sense for traditional memory hotplug on x86-64, where real HW will also add hotplugged DIMMs to the firmware memmap. We replicate what the "raw firmware-provided memory map" looks like after hot(un)plug. To keep things simple, let the user provide the full resource name instead of only the driver name - this way, we don't have to manually allocate/craft strings for memory resources. Also use the resource name to make decisions, to avoid passing additional flags. In case the name isn't "System RAM", it's special. We don't have to worry about firmware_map_remove() on the removal path. If there is no entry, it will simply return with -EINVAL. We'll adapt dax/kmem in a follow-up patch.

For kvmalloc'ed data object that contains sensitive information like cryptographic keys, we need to make sure that the buffer is always cleared before freeing it. Using memset() alone for buffer clearing may not provide certainty as the compiler may compile it away. To be sure, the special memzero_explicit() has to be used. This patch introduces a new kvfree_sensitive() for freeing those sensitive data objects allocated by kvmalloc(). The relevant places where kvfree_sensitive() can be used are modified to use it.

This change extends kcov remote coverage support to allow collecting coverage from soft interrupts in addition to kernel background threads. To collect coverage from code that is executed in softirq context, a part of that code has to be annotated with kcov_remote_start/stop() in a similar way as how it is done for global kernel background threads. Then the handle used for the annotations has to be passed to the KCOV_REMOTE_ENABLE ioctl. Internally this patch adjusts the __sanitizer_cov_trace_pc() compiler inserted callback to not bail out when called from softirq context. kcov_remote_start/stop() are updated to save/restore the current per task kcov state in a per-cpu area (in case the softirq came when the kernel was already collecting coverage in task context). Coverage from softirqs is collected into pre-allocated per-cpu areas, whose size is controlled by the new CONFIG_KCOV_IRQ_AREA_SIZE.

Turn the afs_operation struct into the main way that most fileserver operations are managed. Various things are added to the struct, including the following: (1) All the parameters and results of the relevant operations are moved into it, removing corresponding fields from the afs_call struct. afs_call gets a pointer to the op. (2) The target volume is made the main focus of the operation, rather than the target vnode(s), and a bunch of op->vnode->volume are made op->volume instead. (3) Two vnode records are defined (op->file[]) for the vnode(s) involved in most operations. The vnode record (struct afs_vnode_param) contains: - The vnode pointer. - The fid of the vnode to be included in the parameters or that was returned in the reply (eg. FS.MakeDir). - The status and callback information that may be returned in the reply about the vnode. - Callback break and data version tracking for detecting simultaneous third-parth changes. (4) Pointers to dentries to be updated with new inodes. (5) An operations table pointer. The table includes pointers to functions for issuing AFS and YFS-variant RPCs, handling the success and abort of an operation and handling post-I/O-lock local editing of a directory. To make this work, the following function restructuring is made: (A) The rotation loop that issues calls to fileservers that can be found in each function that wants to issue an RPC (such as afs_mkdir()) is extracted out into common code, in a new file called fs_operation.c. (B) The rotation loops, such as the one in afs_mkdir(), are replaced with a much smaller piece of code that allocates an operation, sets the parameters and then calls out to the common code to do the actual work. (C) The code for handling the success and failure of an operation are moved into operation functions (as (5) above) and these are called from the core code at appropriate times. (D) The pseudo inode getting stuff used by the dynamic root code is moved over into dynroot.c. (E) struct afs_iget_data is absorbed into the operation struct and afs_iget() expects to be given an op pointer and a vnode record. (F) Point (E) doesn't work for the root dir of a volume, but we know the FID in advance (it's always vnode 1, unique 1), so a separate inode getter, afs_root_iget(), is provided to special-case that. (G) The inode status init/update functions now also take an op and a vnode record. (H) The RPC marshalling functions now, for the most part, just take an afs_operation struct as their only argument. All the data they need is held there. The result delivery functions write their answers there as well. (I) The call is attached to the operation and then the operation core does the waiting. And then the new operation code is, for the moment, made to just initialise the operation, get the appropriate vnode I/O locks and do the same rotation loop as before. This lays the foundation for the following changes in the future: (*) Overhauling the rotation (again). (*) Support for asynchronous I/O, where the fileserver rotation must be done asynchronously also. Signed-off-by: NDavid Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>

Currently while doing block allocation grp->bb_free may be getting modified if discard is happening in parallel. For e.g. consider a case where there are lot of threads who have preallocated lot of blocks and there is a thread which is trying to discard all of this group's PA. Now it could happen that we see all of those group's bb_free is zero and fail the allocation while there is sufficient space if we free up all the PA. So this patch adds another flag "EXT4_MB_STRICT_CHECK" which will be set if we are unable to allocate any blocks in the first try (since we may not have considered blocks about to be discarded from PA lists). So during retry attempt to allocate blocks we will use ext4_lock_group() for checking if the group is good or not.

The VM tries to balance reclaim pressure between anon and file so as to reduce the amount of IO incurred due to the memory shortage. It already counts refaults and swapins, but in addition it should also count writepage calls during reclaim. For swap, this is obvious: it's IO that wouldn't have occurred if the anonymous memory hadn't been under memory pressure. From a relative balancing point of view this makes sense as well: even if anon is cold and reclaimable, a cache that isn't thrashing may have equally cold pages that don't require IO to reclaim. For file writeback, it's trickier: some of the reclaim writepage IO would have likely occurred anyway due to dirty expiration. But not all of it - premature writeback reduces batching and generates additional writes. Since the flushers are already woken up by the time the VM starts writing cache pages one by one, let's assume that we'e likely causing writes that wouldn't have happened without memory pressure. In addition, the per-page cost of IO would have probably been much cheaper if written in larger batches from the flusher thread rather than the single-page-writes from kswapd. For our purposes - getting the trend right to accelerate convergence on a stable state that doesn't require paging at all - this is sufficiently accurate. If we later wanted to optimize for sustained thrashing, we can still refine the measurements. Count all writepage calls from kswapd as IO cost toward the LRU that the page belongs to. Why do this dynamically? Don't we know in advance that anon pages require IO to reclaim, and so could build in a static bias? First, scanning is not the same as reclaiming. If all the anon pages are referenced, we may not swap for a while just because we're scanning the anon list. During this time, however, it's important that we age anonymous memory and the page cache at the same rate so that their hot-cold gradients are comparable. Everything else being equal, we still want to reclaim the coldest memory overall. Second, we keep copies in swap unless the page changes. If there is swap-backed data that's mostly read (tmpfs file) and has been swapped out before, we can reclaim it without incurring additional IO.

We split the LRU lists into anon and file, and we rebalance the scan pressure between them when one of them begins thrashing: if the file cache experiences workingset refaults, we increase the pressure on anonymous pages; if the workload is stalled on swapins, we increase the pressure on the file cache instead. With cgroups and their nested LRU lists, we currently don't do this correctly. While recursive cgroup reclaim establishes a relative LRU order among the pages of all involved cgroups, LRU pressure balancing is done on an individual cgroup LRU level. As a result, when one cgroup is thrashing on the filesystem cache while a sibling may have cold anonymous pages, pressure doesn't get equalized between them. This patch moves LRU balancing decision to the root of reclaim - the same level where the LRU order is established. It does this by tracking LRU cost recursively, so that every level of the cgroup tree knows the aggregate LRU cost of all memory within its domain. When the page scanner calculates the scan balance for any given individual cgroup's LRU list, it uses the values from the ancestor cgroup that initiated the reclaim cycle. If one sibling is then thrashing on the cache, it will tip the pressure balance inside its ancestors, and the next hierarchical reclaim iteration will go more after the anon pages in the tree.

Since the LRUs were split into anon and file lists, the VM has been balancing between page cache and anonymous pages based on per-list ratios of scanned vs. rotated pages. In most cases that tips page reclaim towards the list that is easier to reclaim and has the fewest actively used pages, but there are a few problems with it: 1. Refaults and LRU rotations are weighted the same way, even though one costs IO and the other costs a bit of CPU. 2. The less we scan an LRU list based on already observed rotations, the more we increase the sampling interval for new references, and rotations become even more likely on that list. This can enter a death spiral in which we stop looking at one list completely until the other one is all but annihilated by page reclaim. Since commit a528910e ("mm: thrash detection-based file cache sizing") we have refault detection for the page cache. Along with swapin events, they are good indicators of when the file or anon list, respectively, is too small for its workingset and needs to grow. For example, if the page cache is thrashing, the cache pages need more time in memory, while there may be colder pages on the anonymous list. Likewise, if swapped pages are faulting back in, it indicates that we reclaim anonymous pages too aggressively and should back off. Replace LRU rotations with refaults and swapins as the basis for relative reclaim cost of the two LRUs. This will have the VM target list balances that incur the least amount of IO on aggregate.

Currently, scan pressure between the anon and file LRU lists is balanced based on a mixture of reclaim efficiency and a somewhat vague notion of "value" of having certain pages in memory over others. That concept of value is problematic, because it has caused us to count any event that remotely makes one LRU list more or less preferrable for reclaim, even when these events are not directly comparable and impose very different costs on the system. One example is referenced file pages that we still deactivate and referenced anonymous pages that we actually rotate back to the head of the list. There is also conceptual overlap with the LRU algorithm itself. By rotating recently used pages instead of reclaiming them, the algorithm already biases the applied scan pressure based on page value. Thus, when rebalancing scan pressure due to rotations, we should think of reclaim cost, and leave assessing the page value to the LRU algorithm. Lastly, considering both value-increasing as well as value-decreasing events can sometimes cause the same type of event to be counted twice, i.e. how rotating a page increases the LRU value, while reclaiming it succesfully decreases the value. In itself this will balance out fine, but it quietly skews the impact of events that are only recorded once. The abstract metric of "value", the murky relationship with the LRU algorithm, and accounting both negative and positive events make the current pressure balancing model hard to reason about and modify. This patch switches to a balancing model of accounting the concrete, actually observed cost of reclaiming one LRU over another. For now, that cost includes pages that are scanned but rotated back to the list head. Subsequent patches will add consideration for IO caused by refaulting of recently evicted pages. Replace struct zone_reclaim_stat with two cost counters in the lruvec, and make everything that affects cost go through a new lru_note_cost() function.
