2020-08-07mm: remove unneeded includes of <asm/pgalloc.h>Mike Rapoport1-1/+0
Patch series "mm: cleanup usage of <asm/pgalloc.h>" Most architectures have very similar versions of pXd_alloc_one() and pXd_free_one() for intermediate levels of page table. These patches add generic versions of these functions in <asm-generic/pgalloc.h> and enable use of the generic functions where appropriate. In addition, functions declared and defined in <asm/pgalloc.h> headers are used mostly by core mm and early mm initialization in arch and there is no actual reason to have the <asm/pgalloc.h> included all over the place. The first patch in this series removes unneeded includes of <asm/pgalloc.h> In the end it didn't work out as neatly as I hoped and moving pXd_alloc_track() definitions to <asm-generic/pgalloc.h> would require unnecessary changes to arches that have custom page table allocations, so I've decided to move lib/ioremap.c to mm/ and make pgalloc-track.h local to mm/. This patch (of 8): In most cases <asm/pgalloc.h> header is required only for allocations of page table memory. Most of the .c files that include that header do not use symbols declared in <asm/pgalloc.h> and do not require that header. As for the other header files that used to include <asm/pgalloc.h>, it is possible to move that include into the .c file that actually uses symbols from <asm/pgalloc.h> and drop the include from the header file. The process was somewhat automated using sed -i -E '/[<"]asm\/pgalloc\.h/d' \ $(grep -L -w -f /tmp/xx \ $(git grep -E -l '[<"]asm/pgalloc\.h')) where /tmp/xx contains all the symbols defined in arch/*/include/asm/pgalloc.h.

2019-05-03parisc: Use per-pagetable spinlockMikulas Patocka1-4/+11
PA-RISC uses a global spinlock to protect pagetable updates in the TLB fault handlers. When multiple cores are taking TLB faults simultaneously, the cache line containing the spinlock becomes a bottleneck. This patch embeds the spinlock in the top level page directory, so that every process has its own lock. It improves performance by 30% when doing parallel compilations. At least on the N class systems, only one PxTLB inter processor broadcast can be active at any one time on the Merced bus. If a Merced bus is found, this patch serializes the TLB flushes with the pa_tlb_flush_lock spinlock. v1: Initial patch by Mikulas v2: Added Merced detection by Helge v3: Revised TLB serialization by Dave & Helge Signed-off-by: Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: John David Anglin <dave.anglin@bell.net> Signed-off-by: Helge Deller <deller@gmx.de>
2018-10-20parisc: Optimze cache flush algorithmsJohn David Anglin1-6/+27
The attached patch implements three optimizations: 1) Loops in flush_user_dcache_range_asm, flush_kernel_dcache_range_asm, purge_kernel_dcache_range_asm, flush_user_icache_range_asm, and flush_kernel_icache_range_asm are unrolled to reduce branch overhead. 2) The static branch prediction for cmpb instructions in pacache.S have been reviewed and the operand order adjusted where necessary. 3) For flush routines in cache.c, we purge rather flush when we have no context. The pdc instruction at level 0 is not required to write back dirty lines to memory. This provides a performance improvement over the fdc instruction if the feature is implemented. Version 2 adds alternative patching. The patch provides an average improvement of about 2%. Signed-off-by: John David Anglin <dave.anglin@bell.net> Signed-off-by: Helge Deller <deller@gmx.de>
2018-10-17parisc: Add alternative coding infrastructureHelge Deller1-12/+0
This patch adds the necessary code to patch a running kernel at runtime to improve performance. The current implementation offers a few optimizations variants: - When running a SMP kernel on a single UP processor, unwanted assembler statements like locking functions are overwritten with NOPs. When multiple instructions shall be skipped, one branch instruction is used instead of multiple nop instructions. - In the UP case, some pdtlb and pitlb instructions are patched to become pdtlb,l and pitlb,l which only flushes the CPU-local tlb entries instead of broadcasting the flush to other CPUs in the system and thus may improve performance. - fic and fdc instructions are skipped if no I- or D-caches are installed. This should speed up qemu emulation and cacheless systems. - If no cache coherence is needed for IO operations, the relevant fdc and sync instructions in the sba and ccio drivers are replaced by nops. - On systems which share I- and D-TLBs and thus don't have a seperate instruction TLB, the pitlb instruction is replaced by a nop. Live-patching is done early in the boot process, just after having run the system inventory. No drivers are running and thus no external interrupts should arrive. So the hope is that no TLB exceptions will occur during the patching. If this turns out to be wrong we will probably need to do the patching in real-mode. Signed-off-by: Helge Deller <deller@gmx.de>
2018-10-17parisc: Reorder TLB flush timing calculationJohn David Anglin1-8/+10
On boot (mostly reboot), my c8000 sometimes crashes after it prints the TLB flush threshold. The lockup is hard. The front LED flashes red and the box must be unplugged to reset the error. I noticed that when the crash occurs the TLB flush threshold is about one quarter what it is on a successful boot. If I disabled the calculation, the crash didn't occur. There also seemed to be a timing dependency affecting the crash. I finally realized that the flush_tlb_all() timing test runs just after the secondary CPUs are started. There seems to be a problem with running flush_tlb_all() too soon after the CPUs are started. The timing for the range test always seemed okay. So, I reversed the order of the two timing tests and I haven't had a crash at this point so far. I added a couple of information messages which I have left to help with diagnosis if the problem should appear on another machine. This version reduces the minimum TLB flush threshold to 16 KiB.

2018-04-05mm: fix races between swapoff and flush dcacheHuang Ying1-2/+3
Thanks to commit 4b3ef9daa4fc ("mm/swap: split swap cache into 64MB trunks"), after swapoff the address_space associated with the swap device will be freed. So page_mapping() users which may touch the address_space need some kind of mechanism to prevent the address_space from being freed during accessing. The dcache flushing functions (flush_dcache_page(), etc) in architecture specific code may access the address_space of swap device for anonymous pages in swap cache via page_mapping() function. But in some cases there are no mechanisms to prevent the swap device from being swapoff, for example, CPU1 CPU2 __get_user_pages() swapoff() flush_dcache_page() mapping = page_mapping() ... exit_swap_address_space() ... kvfree(spaces) mapping_mapped(mapping) The address space may be accessed after being freed. But from cachetlb.txt and Russell King, flush_dcache_page() only care about file cache pages, for anonymous pages, flush_anon_page() should be used. The implementation of flush_dcache_page() in all architectures follows this too. They will check whether page_mapping() is NULL and whether mapping_mapped() is true to determine whether to flush the dcache immediately. And they will use interval tree (mapping->i_mmap) to find all user space mappings. While mapping_mapped() and mapping->i_mmap isn't used by anonymous pages in swap cache at all. So, to fix the race between swapoff and flush dcache, __page_mapping() is add to return the address_space for file cache pages and NULL otherwise. All page_mapping() invoking in flush dcache functions are replaced with page_mapping_file().

In thinking about this, I realized that we don't need to flush the TLB when there is no context. So, I added context checks to the large flush cases in flush_cache_mm() and flush_cache_range(). The large flush case occurs frequently in flush_cache_mm() and the change should improve fork performance. The v2 version of this change removes the BUG_ON from flush_cache_page() by skipping the TLB flush when there is no context.  I also added code to flush the TLB in flush_cache_mm() and flush_cache_range() when we have a context that's not current.  Now all three routines handle TLB flushes in a similar manner.

2018-03-02parisc: Fix ordering of cache and TLB flushesJohn David Anglin1-26/+31
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.

2017-07-25parisc: Prevent TLB speculation on flushed pages on CPUs that only support ↵John David Anglin1-20/+14
equivalent aliases Helge noticed that we flush the TLB page in flush_cache_page but not in flush_cache_range or flush_cache_mm. For a long time, we have had random segmentation faults building packages on machines with PA8800/8900 processors. These machines only support equivalent aliases. We don't see these faults on machines that don't require strict coherency. So, it appears TLB speculation sometimes leads to cache corruption on machines that require coherency. This patch adds TLB flushes to flush_cache_range and flush_cache_mm when coherency is required. We only flush the TLB in flush_cache_page when coherency is required. The patch also optimizes flush_cache_range. It turns out we always have the right context to use flush_user_dcache_range_asm and flush_user_icache_range_asm. The patch has been tested for some time on rp3440, rp3410 and A500-44. It's been boot tested on c8000. No random segmentation faults were observed during testing.

2016-12-08parisc: Fix TLB related boot crash on SMP machinesHelge Deller1-0/+11
At bootup we run measurements to calculate the best threshold for when we should be using full TLB flushes instead of just flushing a specific amount of TLB entries. This performance test is run over the kernel text segment. But running this TLB performance test on the kernel text segment turned out to crash some SMP machines when the kernel text pages were mapped as huge pages. To avoid those crashes this patch simply skips this test on some SMP machines and calculates an optimal threshold based on the maximum number of available TLB entries and number of online CPUs. On a technical side, this seems to happen: The TLB measurement code uses flush_tlb_kernel_range() to flush specific TLB entries with a page size of 4k (pdtlb 0(sr1,addr)). On UP systems this purge instruction seems to work without problems even if the pages were mapped as huge pages. But on SMP systems the TLB purge instruction is broadcasted to other CPUs. Those CPUs then crash the machine because the page size is not as expected. C8000 machines with PA8800/PA8900 CPUs were not affected by this problem, because the required cache coherency prohibits to use huge pages at all. Sadly I didn't found any documentation about this behaviour, so this finding is purely based on testing with phyiscal SMP machines (A500-44 and J5000, both were 2-way boxes).

2016-04-04mm, fs: get rid of PAGE_CACHE_* and page_cache_{get,release} macrosKirill A. Shutemov1-1/+1
PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} macros were introduced *long* time ago with promise that one day it will be possible to implement page cache with bigger chunks than PAGE_SIZE. This promise never materialized. And unlikely will. We have many places where PAGE_CACHE_SIZE assumed to be equal to PAGE_SIZE. And it's constant source of confusion on whether PAGE_CACHE_* or PAGE_* constant should be used in a particular case, especially on the border between fs and mm. Global switching to PAGE_CACHE_SIZE != PAGE_SIZE would cause to much breakage to be doable. Let's stop pretending that pages in page cache are special. They are not. The changes are pretty straight-forward: - <foo> << (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>; - <foo> >> (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>; - PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} -> PAGE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN}; - page_cache_get() -> get_page(); - page_cache_release() -> put_page(); This patch contains automated changes generated with coccinelle using script below. For some reason, coccinelle doesn't patch header files. I've called spatch for them manually. The only adjustment after coccinelle is revert of changes to PAGE_CAHCE_ALIGN definition: we are going to drop it later. There are few places in the code where coccinelle didn't reach. I'll fix them manually in a separate patch. Comments and documentation also will be addressed with the separate patch. virtual patch @@ expression E; @@ - E << (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) + E @@ expression E; @@ - E >> (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) + E @@ @@ - PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT + PAGE_SHIFT @@ @@ - PAGE_CACHE_SIZE + PAGE_SIZE @@ @@ - PAGE_CACHE_MASK + PAGE_MASK @@ expression E; @@ - PAGE_CACHE_ALIGN(E) + PAGE_ALIGN(E) @@ expression E; @@ - page_cache_get(E) + get_page(E) @@ expression E; @@ - page_cache_release(E) + put_page(E) Signed-off-by: Kirill A.

2015-07-10parisc: Fix some PTE/TLB race conditions and optimize __flush_tlb_range ↵John David Anglin1-38/+67
based on timing results The increased use of pdtlb/pitlb instructions seemed to increase the frequency of random segmentation faults building packages. Further, we had a number of cases where TLB inserts would repeatedly fail and all forward progress would stop. The Haskell ghc package caused a lot of trouble in this area. The final indication of a race in pte handling was this syslog entry on sibaris (C8000): swap_free: Unused swap offset entry 00000004 BUG: Bad page map in process mysqld pte:00000100 pmd:019bbec5 addr:00000000ec464000 vm_flags:00100073 anon_vma:0000000221023828 mapping: (null) index:ec464 CPU: 1 PID: 9176 Comm: mysqld Not tainted 4.0.0-2-parisc64-smp #1 Debian 4.0.5-1 Backtrace: [<0000000040173eb0>] show_stack+0x20/0x38 [<0000000040444424>] dump_stack+0x9c/0x110 [<00000000402a0d38>] print_bad_pte+0x1a8/0x278 [<00000000402a28b8>] unmap_single_vma+0x3d8/0x770 [<00000000402a4090>] zap_page_range+0xf0/0x198 [<00000000402ba2a4>] SyS_madvise+0x404/0x8c0 Note that the pte value is 0 except for the accessed bit 0x100. This bit shouldn't be set without the present bit. It should be noted that the madvise system call is probably a trigger for many of the random segmentation faults. In looking at the kernel code, I found the following problems: 1) The pte_clear define didn't take TLB lock when clearing a pte. 2) We didn't test pte present bit inside lock in exception support. 3) The pte and tlb locks needed to merged in order to ensure consistency between page table and TLB. This also has the effect of serializing TLB broadcasts on SMP systems. The attached change implements the above and a few other tweaks to try to improve performance. Based on the timing code, TLB purges are very slow (e.g., ~ 209 cycles per page on rp3440). Thus, I think it beneficial to test the split_tlb variable to avoid duplicate purges. Probably, all PA 2.0 machines have combined TLBs. I dropped using __flush_tlb_range in flush_tlb_mm as I realized all applications and most threads have a stack size that is too large to make this useful. I added some comments to this effect. Since implementing 1 through 3, I haven't had any random segmentation faults on mx3210 (rp3440) in about one week of building code and running as a Debian buildd.

On parisc, SHMLBA was defined to 0x00400000 (4MB) to reflect that we need to take care of our caches for shared mappings. But actually, we can map a file at any multiple address of PAGE_SIZE, so let us correct that now with a value of PAGE_SIZE for SHMLBA. Instead we now take care of this cache colouring via the constant SHM_COLOUR while we map shared pages.

2014-01-08parisc: Ensure full cache coherency for kmap/kunmapJohn David Anglin1-35/+0
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.

2013-07-31parisc: Fix cache routines to ignore vma's with an invalid pfnJohn David Anglin1-64/+71
The parisc architecture does not have a pte special bit. As a result, special mappings are handled with the VM_PFNMAP and VM_MIXEDMAP flags. VM_MIXEDMAP mappings may or may not have a "struct page" backing. When pfn_valid() is false, there is no "struct page" backing. Otherwise, they are treated as normal pages. The FireGL driver uses the VM_MIXEDMAP without a backing "struct page". This treatment caused a panic due to a TLB data miss in update_mmu_cache. This appeared to be in the code generated for page_address(). We were in fact using a very circular bit of code to determine the physical address of the PFN in various cache routines. This wasn't valid when there was no "struct page" backing. The needed address can in fact be determined simply from the PFN itself without using the "struct page". The attached patch updates update_mmu_cache(), flush_cache_mm(), flush_cache_range() and flush_cache_page() to check pfn_valid() and to directly compute the PFN physical and virtual addresses.

2013-07-09parisc: Ensure volatile space register %sr1 is not clobberedJohn David Anglin1-1/+1
I still see the occasional random segv on rp3440. Looking at one of these (a code 15), it appeared the problem must be with the cache handling of anonymous pages. Reviewing this, I noticed that the space register %sr1 might be being clobbered when we flush an anonymous page. Register %sr1 is used for TLB purges in a couple of places. These purges are needed on PA8800 and PA8900 processors to ensure cache consistency of flushed cache lines. The solution here is simply to move the %sr1 load into the TLB lock region needed to ensure that one purge executes at a time on SMP systems. This was already the case for one use. After a few days of operation, I haven't had a random segv on my rp3440.

2013-04-25parisc: use spin_lock_irqsave/spin_unlock_irqrestore for PTE updatesJohn David Anglin1-4/+1
User applications running on SMP kernels have long suffered from instability and random segmentation faults. This patch improves the situation although there is more work to be done. One of the problems is the various routines in pgtable.h that update page table entries use different locking mechanisms, or no lock at all (set_pte_at). This change modifies the routines to all use the same lock pa_dbit_lock. This lock is used for dirty bit updates in the interruption code. The patch also purges the TLB entries associated with the PTE to ensure that inconsistent values are not used after the page table entry is updated. The UP and SMP code are now identical. The change also includes a minor update to the purge_tlb_entries function in cache.c to improve its efficiency.

CONFIG_PARISC_TMPALIAS enables clear_user_highpage and copy_user_highpage. These are essentially alternative implementations of clear_user_page and copy_user_page. They don't have anything to do with x86 high pages, but they build on the infrastructure to save a few instructions. Read the comment in clear_user_highpage as it is very important to the implementation. For this reason, there isn't any gain in using the TMPALIAS/highpage approach.

2013-02-20parisc: fixes and cleanups in page cache flushing (3/4)John David Anglin1-7/+81
flush_cache_mm, for the non current case also uses flush_dcache_page_asm and flush_icache_page_asm which are TMPALIAS flushes. For the non current case, the algorithm used by get_ptep is derived from the vmalloc_to_page implementation in vmalloc.c. It is essentially a generic page table lookup. The other alternative was to duplicate the lookup in entry.S. The break point for switching to a full cache flush is somewhat arbitrary. The same approach is used in flush_cache_range for non current case. In a GCC build and check, many small programs are executed and this change provided a significant performance enhancement, e.g. GCC build time was cut almost in half on a rp3440 at j4. Previously, we always flushed the entire cache. Signed-off-by: John David Anglin <dave.anglin@bell.net> Signed-off-by: Helge Deller <deller@gmx.de>
2013-02-20parisc: fixes and cleanups in page cache flushing (1/4)John David Anglin1-28/+21
This is the first patch in a series of 4, with which the page cache flushing of parisc will gets fixed and enhanced. This even fixes the nasty "minifail" bug (http://wiki.parisc-linux.org/TestCases?highlight=%28minifail%29) which prevented parisc to stay an official debian port. Basically the flush in copy_user_page together with the TLB patch from commit 7139bc1579901b53db7e898789e916ee2fb52d78 is what fixes the minifail bug. This patch still uses the TMPALIAS approach. The new copy_user_page implementation calls flush_dcache_page_asm to flush the user dcache page (crucial for minifail fix) via a kernel TMPALIAS mapping. After that, it just copies the page using the kernel mapping. It does a final flush if needed. Generally it is hard to avoid doing some cache flushes using the kernel mapping (e.g., copy_to_user_page and copy_from_user_page). This patch depends on a subsequent change to pacache.S implementing clear_page_asm and copy_page_asm. These are optimized routines to clear and copy a page. The calls in clear_user_page and copy_user_page could be replaced by calls to memset and memcpy, respectively. I tested prefetch optimizations in clear_page_asm and copy_page_asm but didn't see any significant performance improvement on rp3440. I'm not sure if these are routines are significantly faster than memset and/or memcpy, but they are there for further performance evaluation.

2012-10-09mm: replace vma prio_tree with an interval treeMichel Lespinasse1-2/+1
Implement an interval tree as a replacement for the VMA prio_tree. The algorithms are similar to lib/interval_tree.c; however that code can't be directly reused as the interval endpoints are not explicitly stored in the VMA. So instead, the common algorithm is moved into a template and the details (node type, how to get interval endpoints from the node, etc) are filled in using the C preprocessor. Once the interval tree functions are available, using them as a replacement to the VMA prio tree is a relatively simple, mechanical job.

2011-04-15[PARISC] prevent speculative re-read on cache flushJames Bottomley1-1/+12
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). Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@suse.de>
2011-01-15parisc: flush pages through tmpalias spaceJames Bottomley1-92/+17
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.

2010-02-20MM: Pass a PTE pointer to update_mmu_cache() rather than the PTE itselfRussell King1-2/+2
On VIVT ARM, when we have multiple shared mappings of the same file in the same MM, we need to ensure that we have coherency across all copies. We do this via make_coherent() by making the pages uncacheable. This used to work fine, until we allowed highmem with highpte - we now have a page table which is mapped as required, and is not available for modification via update_mmu_cache(). Ralf Beache suggested getting rid of the PTE value passed to update_mmu_cache(): On MIPS update_mmu_cache() calls __update_tlb() which walks pagetables to construct a pointer to the pte again. Passing a pte_t * is much more elegant. Maybe we might even replace the pte argument with the pte_t? Ben Herrenschmidt would also like the pte pointer for PowerPC: Passing the ptep in there is exactly what I want. I want that -instead- of the PTE value, because I have issue on some ppc cases, for I$/D$ coherency, where set_pte_at() may decide to mask out the _PAGE_EXEC. So, pass in the mapped page table pointer into update_mmu_cache(), and remove the PTE value, updating all implementations and call sites to suit.

2009-07-03parisc: ensure broadcast tlb purge runs single threadedHelge Deller1-8/+15
The TLB flushing functions on hppa, which causes PxTLB broadcasts on the system bus, needs to be protected by irq-safe spinlocks to avoid irq handlers to deadlock the kernel. The deadlocks only happened during I/O intensive loads and triggered pretty seldom, which is why this bug went so long unnoticed.
