      net: introduce SO_BPF_EXTENSIONS · ea02f941
      Michal Sekletar 提交于
      For user space packet capturing libraries such as libpcap, there's
      currently only one way to check which BPF extensions are supported
      by the kernel, that is, commit aa1113d9 ("net: filter: return
      -EINVAL if BPF_S_ANC* operation is not supported"). For querying all
      extensions at once this might be rather inconvenient.
      
      Therefore, this patch introduces a new option which can be used as
      an argument for getsockopt(), and allows one to obtain information
      about which BPF extensions are supported by the current kernel.
      
      As David Miller suggests, we do not need to define any bits right
      now and status quo can just return 0 in order to state that this
      versions supports SKF_AD_PROTOCOL up to SKF_AD_PAY_OFFSET. Later
      additions to BPF extensions need to add their bits to the
      bpf_tell_extensions() function, as documented in the comment.

      arch: Introduce smp_load_acquire(), smp_store_release() · 47933ad4
      Peter Zijlstra 提交于
      A number of situations currently require the heavyweight smp_mb(),
      even though there is no need to order prior stores against later
      loads.  Many architectures have much cheaper ways to handle these
      situations, but the Linux kernel currently has no portable way
      to make use of them.
      
      This commit therefore supplies smp_load_acquire() and
      smp_store_release() to remedy this situation.  The new
      smp_load_acquire() primitive orders the specified load against
      any subsequent reads or writes, while the new smp_store_release()
      primitive orders the specifed store against any prior reads or
      writes.  These primitives allow array-based circular FIFOs to be
      implemented without an smp_mb(), and also allow a theoretical
      hole in rcu_assign_pointer() to be closed at no additional
      expense on most architectures.
      
      In addition, the RCU experience transitioning from explicit
      smp_read_barrier_depends() and smp_wmb() to rcu_dereference()
      and rcu_assign_pointer(), respectively resulted in substantial
      improvements in readability.  It therefore seems likely that
      replacing other explicit barriers with smp_load_acquire() and
      smp_store_release() will provide similar benefits.  It appears
      that roughly half of the explicit barriers in core kernel code
      might be so replaced.

      arch: Clean up asm/barrier.h implementations using asm-generic/barrier.h · 93ea02bb
      Peter Zijlstra 提交于
      We're going to be adding a few new barrier primitives, and in order to
      avoid endless duplication make more agressive use of
      asm-generic/barrier.h.
      
      Change the asm-generic/barrier.h such that it allows partial barrier
      definitions and fills out the rest with defaults.
      
      There are a few architectures (m32r, m68k) that could probably
      do away with their barrier.h file entirely but are kept for now due to
      their unconventional nop() implementation.

      PCI: Convert pcibios_resource_to_bus() to take a pci_bus, not a pci_dev · fc279850
      Yinghai Lu 提交于
      These interfaces:
      
        pcibios_resource_to_bus(struct pci_dev *dev, *bus_region, *resource)
        pcibios_bus_to_resource(struct pci_dev *dev, *resource, *bus_region)
      
      took a pci_dev, but they really depend only on the pci_bus.  And we want to
      use them in resource allocation paths where we have the bus but not a
      device, so this patch converts them to take the pci_bus instead of the
      pci_dev:
      
        pcibios_resource_to_bus(struct pci_bus *bus, *bus_region, *resource)
        pcibios_bus_to_resource(struct pci_bus *bus, *resource, *bus_region)
      
      In fact, with standard PCI-PCI bridges, they only depend on the host
      bridge, because that's the only place address translation occurs, but
      we aren't going that far yet.

      mm: fix TLB flush race between migration, and change_protection_range · 20841405
      Rik van Riel 提交于
      There are a few subtle races, between change_protection_range (used by
      mprotect and change_prot_numa) on one side, and NUMA page migration and
      compaction on the other side.
      
      The basic race is that there is a time window between when the PTE gets
      made non-present (PROT_NONE or NUMA), and the TLB is flushed.
      
      During that time, a CPU may continue writing to the page.
      
      This is fine most of the time, however compaction or the NUMA migration
      code may come in, and migrate the page away.
      
      When that happens, the CPU may continue writing, through the cached
      translation, to what is no longer the current memory location of the
      process.
      
      This only affects x86, which has a somewhat optimistic pte_accessible.
      All other architectures appear to be safe, and will either always flush,
      or flush whenever there is a valid mapping, even with no permissions
      (SPARC).
      
      The basic race looks like this:
      
      CPU A			CPU B			CPU C
      
      						load TLB entry
      make entry PTE/PMD_NUMA
      			fault on entry
      						read/write old page
      			start migrating page
      			change PTE/PMD to new page
      						read/write old page [*]
      flush TLB
      						reload TLB from new entry
      						read/write new page
      						lose data
      
      [*] the old page may belong to a new user at this point!
      
      The obvious fix is to flush remote TLB entries, by making sure that
      pte_accessible aware of the fact that PROT_NONE and PROT_NUMA memory may
      still be accessible if there is a TLB flush pending for the mm.
      
      This should fix both NUMA migration and compaction.
