2022-04-04Documentation: kunit: fix path to .kunitconfig in start.rstDaniel Latypov1-3/+8
Commit ddbd60c779b4 ("kunit: use --build_dir=.kunit as default") changed the default --build_dir, which had the side effect of making `.kunitconfig` move to `.kunit/.kunitconfig`. However, the first few lines of kunit/start.rst never got updated, oops. Fix this by telling people to run kunit.py first, which will automatically generate the .kunit directory and .kunitconfig file, and then edit the file manually as desired.

The Architecture chapter of the KUnit documentation tried to include copies of the kernel-doc for a couple of things, despite these already existing in the API documentation. This lead to some warnings: architecture:31: ./include/kunit/test.h:3: WARNING: Duplicate C declaration, also defined at dev-tools/kunit/api/test:66. Declaration is '.. c:struct:: kunit_case'. architecture:163: ./include/kunit/test.h:1217: WARNING: Duplicate C declaration, also defined at dev-tools/kunit/api/test:1217.

2022-03-22kfence: allow use of a deferrable timerMarco Elver1-0/+12
Allow the use of a deferrable timer, which does not force CPU wake-ups when the system is idle. A consequence is that the sample interval becomes very unpredictable, to the point that it is not guaranteed that the KFENCE KUnit test still passes. Nevertheless, on power-constrained systems this may be preferable, so let's give the user the option should they accept the above trade-off.

2021-12-13kunit: tool: reconfigure when the used kunitconfig changesDaniel Latypov1-4/+4
Problem: currently, if you remove something from your kunitconfig, kunit.py will not regenerate the .config file. The same thing happens if you did --kunitconfig_add=CONFIG_KASAN=y [1] and then ran again without it. Your new run will still have KASAN. The reason is that kunit.py won't regenerate the .config file if it's a superset of the kunitconfig. This speeds it up a bit for iterating. This patch adds an additional check that forces kunit.py to regenerate the .config file if the current kunitconfig doesn't match the previous one. What this means: * deleting entries from .kunitconfig works as one would expect * dropping a --kunitconfig_add also triggers a rebuild * you can still edit .config directly to turn on new options We implement this by creating a `last_used_kunitconfig` file in the build directory (so .kunit, by default) after we generate the .config. When comparing the kconfigs, we compare python sets, so duplicates and permutations don't trip us up. The majority of this patch is adding unit tests for the existing logic and for the new case where `last_used_kunitconfig` differs.

Patches 1-3 are smaller things that I noticed while staring at it. Patch 4 is small change which makes replacement in #5 simpler / more obvious.

2021-11-06kfence: default to dynamic branch instead of static keys modeMarco Elver1-4/+8
We have observed that on very large machines with newer CPUs, the static key/branch switching delay is on the order of milliseconds. This is due to the required broadcast IPIs, which simply does not scale well to hundreds of CPUs (cores). If done too frequently, this can adversely affect tail latencies of various workloads. One workaround is to increase the sample interval to several seconds, while decreasing sampled allocation coverage, but the problem still exists and could still increase tail latencies. As already noted in the Kconfig help text, there are trade-offs: at lower sample intervals the dynamic branch results in better performance; however, at very large sample intervals, the static keys mode can result in better performance -- careful benchmarking is recommended. Our initial benchmarking showed that with large enough sample intervals and workloads stressing the allocator, the static keys mode was slightly better. Evaluating and observing the possible system-wide side-effects of the static-key-switching induced broadcast IPIs, however, was a blind spot (in particular on large machines with 100s of cores). Therefore, a major downside of the static keys mode is, unfortunately, that it is hard to predict performance on new system architectures and topologies, but also making conclusions about performance of new workloads based on a limited set of benchmarks. Most distributions will simply select the defaults, while targeting a large variety of different workloads and system architectures. As such, the better default is CONFIG_KFENCE_STATIC_KEYS=n, and re-enabling it is only recommended after careful evaluation. For reference, on x86-64 the condition in kfence_alloc() generates exactly 2 instructions in the kmem_cache_alloc() fast-path: | ... | cmpl $0x0,0x1a8021c(%rip) # ffffffff82d560d0 <kfence_allocation_gate> | je ffffffff812d6003 <kmem_cache_alloc+0x243> | ... which, given kfence_allocation_gate is infrequently modified, should be well predicted by most CPUs.

2021-10-19kunit: tool: allow filtering test cases via globDaniel Latypov1-2/+9
Commit 1d71307a6f94 ("kunit: add unit test for filtering suites by names") introduced the ability to filter which suites we run via glob. This change extends it so we can also filter individual test cases inside of suites as well. This is quite useful when, e.g. * trying to run just the tests cases you've just added or are working on * trying to debug issues with test hermeticity Examples: $ ./tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py run --kunitconfig=lib/kunit '*exec*.parse*' ... ============================================================ ======== [PASSED] kunit_executor_test ======== [PASSED] parse_filter_test ============================================================ Testing complete. 1 tests run. 0 failed. 0 crashed. $ ./tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py run --kunitconfig=lib/kunit '*.no_matching_tests' ...

2021-10-07kasan: Extend KASAN mode kernel parameterVincenzo Frascino1-2/+5
Architectures supported by KASAN_HW_TAGS can provide an asymmetric mode of execution. On an MTE enabled arm64 hw for example this can be identified with the asymmetric tagging mode of execution. In particular, when such a mode is present, the CPU triggers a fault on a tag mismatch during a load operation and asynchronously updates a register when a tag mismatch is detected during a store operation. Extend the KASAN HW execution mode kernel command line parameter to support asymmetric mode.
