__kunmap_ {local,atomic}() currently take pointers to void. However, this
is semantically incorrect, since these functions do not change the memory
their arguments point to.
Therefore, make this semantics explicit by modifying the
__kunmap_{local,atomic}() prototypes to take pointers to const void.
As a side effect, compilers may produce more efficient code.

Originally, I was convinced that we needed to use tmpalias flushes
everwhere, for both user and kernel flushes. However, when I modified
flush_kernel_dcache_page_addr, to use a tmpalias flush, my c8000
would crash quite early when booting.
The PDC returns alias values of 0 for the icache and dcache. This
indicates that either the alias boundary is greater than 16MB or
equivalent aliasing doesn't work. I modified the tmpalias code to
make it easy to try alternate boundaries. I tried boundaries up to
128MB but still kernel tmpalias flushes didn't work on c8000.
This led me to conclude that tmpalias flushes don't work on PA8800
and PA8900 machines, and that we needed to flush directly using the
virtual address of user and kernel pages. This is likely the major
cause of instability on the c8000 and rp34xx machines.
Flushing user pages requires doing a temporary context switch as we
have to flush pages that don't belong to the current context. Further,
we have to deal with pages that aren't present. If a page isn't
present, the flush instructions fault on every line.
Other code has been rearranged and simplified based on testing. For
example, I introduced a flush_cache_dup_mm routine. flush_cache_mm
and flush_cache_dup_mm differ in that flush_cache_mm calls
purge_cache_pages and flush_cache_dup_mm calls flush_cache_pages.
In some implementations, pdc is more efficient than fdc. Based on
my testing, I don't believe there's any performance benefit on the
c8000.

At least the qemu virtual machine does not provide D- and I-caches,
so skip triggering SMP irqs to flush caches on such machines.
Further optimize the caching code by using static branches and making
some functions static.

Many architectures do not include asm-generic/cacheflush.h, so turn
the includes on their head and add linux/cacheflush.h which includes
asm/cacheflush.h.
Move the flush_dcache_folio() declaration from asm-generic/cacheflush.h
to linux/cacheflush.h and change linux/highmem.h to include
linux/cacheflush.h instead of asm/cacheflush.h so that all necessary
places will see flush_dcache_folio().
More functions should have their default implementations moved in the
future, but those are for follow-on patches. This fixes csky, sparc and
sparc64 which were missed in the commit which added flush_dcache_folio().

flush_kernel_dcache_page is a rather confusing interface that implements a
subset of flush_dcache_page by not being able to properly handle page
cache mapped pages.
The only callers left are in the exec code as all other previous callers
were incorrect as they could have dealt with page cache pages. Replace
the calls to flush_kernel_dcache_page with calls to flush_dcache_page,
which for all architectures does either exactly the same thing, can
contains one or more of the following:
1) an optimization to defer the cache flush for page cache pages not
mapped into userspace
2) additional flushing for mapped page cache pages if cache aliases
are possible

parisc reimplements the kmap calls except to flush its dcache. This is
arguably an abuse of kmap but regardless it is messy and confusing.
Remove the duplicate code and have parisc define ARCH_HAS_FLUSH_ON_KUNMAP
for a kunmap_flush_on_unmap() architecture specific call to flush the
cache.

The change to flush_kernel_vmap_range() wasn't sufficient to avoid the
SMP stalls. The problem is some drivers call these routines with
interrupts disabled. Interrupts need to be enabled for flush_tlb_all()
and flush_cache_all() to work. This version adds checks to ensure
interrupts are not disabled before calling routines that need IPI
interrupts. When interrupts are disabled, we now drop into slower code.
The attached change fixes the ordering of cache and TLB flushes in
several cases. When we flush the cache using the existing PTE/TLB
entries, we need to flush the TLB after doing the cache flush. We don't
need to do this when we flush the entire instruction and data caches as
these flushes don't use the existing TLB entries. The same is true for
tmpalias region flushes.
The flush_kernel_vmap_range() and invalidate_kernel_vmap_range()
routines have been updated.
Secondly, we added a new purge_kernel_dcache_range_asm() routine to
pacache.S and use it in invalidate_kernel_vmap_range(). Nominally,
purges are faster than flushes as the cache lines don't have to be
written back to memory.
Hopefully, this is sufficient to resolve the remaining problems due to
cache speculation. So far, testing indicates that this is the case. I
did work up a patch using tmpalias flushes, but there is a performance
hit because we need the physical address for each page, and we also need
to sequence access to the tmpalias flush code. This increases the
probability of stalls.

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.
By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.
Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.
This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.
How this work was done:
Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
- file had no licensing information it it.
- file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
- file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,
Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.
The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.
The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
- Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
- Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
lines of source
- File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
lines).
All documentation files were explicitly excluded.
The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.
- when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
COPYING file license applied.
For non */uapi/* files that summary was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 11139
and resulted in the first patch in this series.
If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930
and resulted in the second patch in this series.
- if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
it (per prior point). Results summary:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270
GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17
LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15
GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14
((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5
LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4
LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1
and that resulted in the third patch in this series.
- when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
the concluded license(s).
- when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.
- In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).
- When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
- If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
in time.
In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.
Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.
In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.
Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
- a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
license ids and scores
- reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
- reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
SPDX license was correct
This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.
These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

The previously submitted patch did not resolve the random segmentation
faults observed on the phantom buildd system. There are still
unresolved problems with the Debian 4.8 and 4.9 kernels on C8000.
The attached patch removes the flush of the offset map pages and does a
whole data cache flush for large ranges. No other arch flushes the
offset map in these routines as far as I can tell.
I have not observed any random segmentation faults on rp3440 in two
weeks of testing with 4.10.0 and 4.10.1.

Helge Deller noted a few weeks ago problems with the AIO support on
parisc. This change is the result of numerous iterations on how best to
deal with this problem.
The solution adopted here is to provide full cache coherency in a
uniform manner on all parisc systems. This involves calling
flush_dcache_page() on kmap operations and flush_kernel_dcache_page() on
kunmap operations. As a result, the copy_user_page() and
clear_user_page() functions can be removed and the overall code is
simpler.
The change ensures that both userspace and kernel aliases to a mapped
page are invalidated and flushed. This is necessary for the correct
operation of PA8800 and PA8900 based systems which do not support
inequivalent aliases.
With this change, I have observed no cache related issues on c8000 and
rp3440. It is now possible for example to do kernel builds with "-j64"
on four way systems.
On systems using XFS file systems, the patch recently posted by Mikulas
Patocka to "fix crash using XFS on loopback" is needed to avoid a hang
caused by an uninitialized lock passed to flush_dcache_page() in the
page struct.

According to Appendix F, the TLB is the primary arbiter of speculation.
Thus, if a page has a TLB entry, it may be speculatively read into the
cache. On linux, this can cause us incoherencies because if we're about
to do a disk read, we call get_user_pages() to do the flush/invalidate
in user space, but we still potentially have the user TLB entries, and
the cache could speculate the lines back into userspace (thus causing
stale data to be used). This is fixed by purging the TLB entries before
we flush through the tmpalias space. Now, the only way the line could
be re-speculated is if the user actually tries to touch it (which is not
allowed).

On parisc, we never implemented invalidate_kernel_vmap_range() because
it was unnecessary for the xfs use case. However, we do need to
implement an invalidate for the opposite use case (which occurred in a
recent NFS change) where the user wants to read through the vmap range
and write via the kernel address. There's an additional complexity to
this in that if the page has no userspace mappings, it might have dirty
cache lines in the kernel (indicated by the PG_dcache_dirty bit). In
order to get full coherency, we need to flush these pages through the
kernel mapping before invalidating the vmap range.

The kernel has an 8M tmpailas space (originally designed for copying
and clearing pages but now only used for clearing). The idea is
to place zeros into the cache above a physical page rather than into
the physical page and flush the cache, because often the zeros end up
being replaced quickly anyway.
We can also use the tmpalias space for flushing a page. The difference
here is that we have to do tmpalias processing in the non access data and
instruction traps. The principle is the same: as long as we know the physical
address and have a virtual address congruent to the real one, the flush will
be effective.
In order to use the tmpalias space, the icache miss path has to be enhanced to
check for the alias region to make the fic instruction effective.

Commit 3e4d3af501cc ("mm: stack based kmap_atomic()") overlooked the
fact that parisc uses kmap as a coherence mechanism, so even though we
have no highmem, we do need to supply our own versions of kmap (and
atomic). This patch converts the parisc kmap to the form which is
needed to keep it compiling (it's a simple prototype and name change).

kunmap_atomic() is currently at level -4 on Rusty's "Hard To Misuse"
list[1] ("Follow common convention and you'll get it wrong"), except in
some architectures when CONFIG_DEBUG_HIGHMEM is set[2][3].
kunmap() takes a pointer to a struct page; kunmap_atomic(), however, takes
takes a pointer to within the page itself. This seems to once in a while
trip people up (the convention they are following is the one from
kunmap()).
Make it much harder to misuse, by moving it to level 9 on Rusty's list[4]
("The compiler/linker won't let you get it wrong"). This is done by
refusing to build if the type of its first argument is a pointer to a
struct page.
The real kunmap_atomic() is renamed to kunmap_atomic_notypecheck()
(which is what you would call in case for some strange reason calling it
with a pointer to a struct page is not incorrect in your code).
The previous version of this patch was compile tested on x86-64.

[2] In these cases, it is at level 5, "Do it right or it will always
break at runtime."
[3] At least mips and powerpc look very similar, and sparc also seems to
share a common ancestor with both; there seems to be quite some
degree of copy-and-paste coding here. The include/asm/highmem.h file
for these three archs mention x86 CPUs at its top.

[5] As an aside, could someone tell me why mn10300 uses unsigned long as
the first parameter of kunmap_atomic() instead of void *?

Based on the generic implementation of kmap_atomic and kunmap_atomic,
we should call pagefault_disable and pagefault_enable in our PA8000
implementation.
The define for kmap_atomic_prot was also missing, and I updated
kmap_atomic_pfn to use the generic implementation because of the
change to kmap_atomic.
I believe that this change is needed to fix the fork copy-on-write
bug.

We already have an API to flush a kernel page along an alias
address, so use it. The TLB purge prevents the CPU from doing
speculative moveins on the flushed address, so we don't need to
implement and invalidate.

pages
Mtdblock driver doesn't call flush_dcache_page for pages in request. So,
this causes problems on architectures where the icache doesn't fill from
the dcache or with dcache aliases. The patch fixes this.
The ARCH_IMPLEMENTS_FLUSH_DCACHE_PAGE symbol was introduced to avoid
pointless empty cache-thrashing loops on architectures for which
flush_dcache_page() is a no-op. Every architecture was provided with this
flush pages on architectires where ARCH_IMPLEMENTS_FLUSH_DCACHE_PAGE is
equal 1 or do nothing otherwise.
See "fix mtd_blkdevs problem with caches on some architectures" discussion
on LKML for more information.
