2022-10-03zstd: Fixing mixed module-builtin objectsAlexey Kardashevskiy3-10/+21
With CONFIG_ZSTD_COMPRESS=m and CONFIG_ZSTD_DECOMPRESS=y we end up in a situation when files from lib/zstd/common/ are compiled once to be linked later for ZSTD_DECOMPRESS (build-in) and ZSTD_COMPRESS (module) even though CFLAGS are different for builtins and modules. So far somehow this was not a problem but enabling LLVM LTO exposes the problem as: ld.lld: error: linking module flags 'Code Model': IDs have conflicting values in 'lib/built-in.a(zstd_common.o at 5868)' and 'ld-temp.o' This particular conflict is caused by KBUILD_CFLAGS=-mcmodel=medium vs. KBUILD_CFLAGS_MODULE=-mcmodel=large , modules use the large model on POWERPC as explained at https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/arch/powerpc/Makefile?h=v5.18-rc4#n127 but the current use of common files is wrong anyway. This works around the issue by introducing a zstd_common module with shared code. Signed-off-by: Alexey Kardashevskiy <aik@ozlabs.ru> Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org>
2021-11-18lib: zstd: Don't add -O3 to cflagsNick Terrell1-2/+0
After the update to zstd-1.4.10 passing -O3 is no longer necessary to get good performance from zstd. Using the default optimization level -O2 is sufficient to get good performance. I've measured no significant change to compression speed, and a ~1% decompression speed loss, which is acceptable. This fixes the reported parisc -Wframe-larger-than=1536 errors [0]. The gcc-8-hppa-linux-gnu compiler performed very poorly with -O3, generating stacks that are ~3KB. With -O2 these same functions generate stacks in the < 100B, completely fixing the problem. Function size deltas are listed below: ZSTD_compressBlock_fast_extDict_generic: 3800 -> 68 ZSTD_compressBlock_fast: 2216 -> 40 ZSTD_compressBlock_fast_dictMatchState: 1848 -> 64 ZSTD_compressBlock_doubleFast_extDict_generic: 3744 -> 76 ZSTD_fillDoubleHashTable: 3252 -> 0 ZSTD_compressBlock_doubleFast: 5856 -> 36 ZSTD_compressBlock_doubleFast_dictMatchState: 5380 -> 84 ZSTD_copmressBlock_lazy2: 2420 -> 72 Additionally, this improves the reported code bloat [1]. With gcc-11 bloat-o-meter shows an 80KB code size improvement: ``` > ../scripts/bloat-o-meter vmlinux.old vmlinux add/remove: 31/8 grow/shrink: 24/155 up/down: 25734/-107924 (-82190) Total: Before=6418562, After=6336372, chg -1.28% ``` Compared to before the zstd-1.4.10 update we see a total code size regression of 105KB, down from 374KB at v5.16-rc1: ``` > ../scripts/bloat-o-meter vmlinux.old vmlinux add/remove: 292/62 grow/shrink: 56/88 up/down: 235009/-127487 (107522) Total: Before=6228850, After=6336372, chg +1.73% ``` [0] https://lkml.org/lkml/2021/11/15/710 [1] https://lkml.org/lkml/2021/11/14/189 Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20211117014949.1169186-4-nickrterrell@gmail.com/ Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20211117201459.1194876-4-nickrterrell@gmail.com/ Reported-by: Geert Uytterhoeven <geert@linux-m68k.org> Tested-by: Geert Uytterhoeven <geert@linux-m68k.org> Reviewed-by: Geert Uytterhoeven <geert@linux-m68k.org> Signed-off-by: Nick Terrell <terrelln@fb.com>
2021-11-18lib: zstd: Don't inline functions in zstd_opt.cNick Terrell2-0/+19
`zstd_opt.c` contains the match finder for the highest compression levels. These levels are already very slow, and are unlikely to be used in the kernel. If they are used, they shouldn't be used in latency sensitive workloads, so slowing them down shouldn't be a big deal. This saves 188 KB of the 288 KB regression reported by Geert Uytterhoeven [0]. I've also opened an issue upstream [1] so that we can properly tackle the code size issue in `zstd_opt.c` for all users, and can hopefully remove this hack in the next zstd version we import.

2021-11-18lib: zstd: Fix unused variable warningNick Terrell1-0/+2
The variable `litLengthSum` is only used by an `assert()`, so when asserts are disabled the compiler doesn't see any usage and warns. This issue is already fixed upstream by PR #2838 [0]. It was reported by the Kernel test robot in [1]. Another approach would be to change zstd's disabled `assert()` definition to use the argument in a disabled branch, instead of ignoring the argument. I've avoided this approach because there are some small changes necessary to get zstd to build, and I would want to thoroughly re-test for performance, since that is slightly changing the code in every function in zstd. It seems like a trivial change, but some functions are pretty sensitive to small changes. However, I think it is a valid approach that I would like to see upstream take, so I've opened Issue #2868 to attempt this upstream. Lastly, I've chosen not to use __maybe_unused because all code in lib/zstd/ must eventually be upstreamed. Upstream zstd can't use __maybe_unused because it isn't portable across all compilers.

2021-11-08lib: zstd: Add cast to silence clang's -Wbitwise-instead-of-logicalNathan Chancellor1-1/+1
A new warning in clang warns that there is an instance where boolean expressions are being used with bitwise operators instead of logical ones: lib/zstd/decompress/huf_decompress.c:890:25: warning: use of bitwise '&' with boolean operands [-Wbitwise-instead-of-logical] (BIT_reloadDStreamFast(&bitD1) == BIT_DStream_unfinished) ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ zstd does this frequently to help with performance, as logical operators have branches whereas bitwise ones do not. To fix this warning in other cases, the expressions were placed on separate lines with the '&=' operator; however, this particular instance was moved away from that so that it could be surrounded by LIKELY, which is a macro for __builtin_expect(), to help with a performance regression, according to upstream zstd pull #1973. Aside from switching to logical operators, which is likely undesirable in this instance, or disabling the warning outright, the solution is casting one of the expressions to an integer type to make it clear to clang that the author knows what they are doing. Add a cast to U32 to silence the warning. The first U32 cast is to silence an instance of -Wshorten-64-to-32 because __builtin_expect() returns long so it cannot be moved.

2021-11-08lib: zstd: Upgrade to latest upstream zstd version 1.4.10Nick Terrell65-11944/+24453
Upgrade to the latest upstream zstd version 1.4.10. This patch is 100% generated from upstream zstd commit 20821a46f412 [0]. This patch is very large because it is transitioning from the custom kernel zstd to using upstream directly. The new zstd follows upstreams file structure which is different. Future update patches will be much smaller because they will only contain the changes from one upstream zstd release. As an aid for review I've created a commit [1] that shows the diff between upstream zstd as-is (which doesn't compile), and the zstd code imported in this patch. The verion of zstd in this patch is generated from upstream with changes applied by automation to replace upstreams libc dependencies, remove unnecessary portability macros, replace `/**` comments with `/*` comments, and use the kernel's xxhash instead of bundling it. The benefits of this patch are as follows: 1. Using upstream directly with automated script to generate kernel code. This allows us to update the kernel every upstream release, so the kernel gets the latest bug fixes and performance improvements, and doesn't get 3 years out of date again. The automation and the translated code are tested every upstream commit to ensure it continues to work. 2. Upgrades from a custom zstd based on 1.3.1 to 1.4.10, getting 3 years of performance improvements and bug fixes. On x86_64 I've measured 15% faster BtrFS and SquashFS decompression+read speeds, 35% faster kernel decompression, and 30% faster ZRAM decompression+read speeds. 3. Zstd-1.4.10 supports negative compression levels, which allow zstd to match or subsume lzo's performance. 4. Maintains the same kernel-specific wrapper API, so no callers have to be modified with zstd version updates. One concern that was brought up was stack usage. Upstream zstd had already removed most of its heavy stack usage functions, but I just removed the last functions that allocate arrays on the stack. I've measured the high water mark for both compression and decompression before and after this patch. Decompression is approximately neutral, using about 1.2KB of stack space. Compression levels up to 3 regressed from 1.4KB -> 1.6KB, and higher compression levels regressed from 1.5KB -> 2KB. We've added unit tests upstream to prevent further regression. I believe that this is a reasonable increase, and if it does end up causing problems, this commit can be cleanly reverted, because it only touches zstd. I chose the bulk update instead of replaying upstream commits because there have been ~3500 upstream commits since the 1.3.1 release, zstd wasn't ready to be used in the kernel as-is before a month ago, and not all upstream zstd commits build. The bulk update preserves bisectablity because bugs can be bisected to the zstd version update. At that point the update can be reverted, and we can work with upstream to find and fix the bug. Note that upstream zstd release 1.4.10 doesn't exist yet. I have cut a staging branch at 20821a46f412 [0] and will apply any changes requested to the staging branch. Once we're ready to merge this update I will cut a zstd release at the commit we merge, so we have a known zstd release in the kernel. The implementation of the kernel API is contained in zstd_compress_module.c and zstd_decompress_module.c.

2021-11-08lib: zstd: Add kernel-specific APINick Terrell2-73/+162
This patch: - Moves `include/linux/zstd.h` -> `include/linux/zstd_lib.h` - Updates modified zstd headers to yearless copyright - Adds a new API in `include/linux/zstd.h` that is functionally equivalent to the in-use subset of the current API. Functions are renamed to avoid symbol collisions with zstd, to make it clear it is not the upstream zstd API, and to follow the kernel style guide. - Updates all callers to use the new API. There are no functional changes in this patch. Since there are no functional change, I felt it was okay to update all the callers in a single patch. Once the API is approved, the callers are mechanically changed. This patch is preparing for the 3rd patch in this series, which updates zstd to version 1.4.10. Since the upstream zstd API is no longer exposed to callers, the update can happen transparently.

These changes are necessary to get the build to work in the preboot environment, and to get reasonable performance: - Remove a double definition of the CHECK_F macro when the zstd library is amalgamated. - Switch ZSTD_copy8() to __builtin_memcpy(), because in the preboot environment on x86 gcc can't inline `memcpy()` otherwise. - Limit the gcc hack in ZSTD_wildcopy() to the broken gcc version. See https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=81388. ZSTD_copy8() and ZSTD_wildcopy() are in the core of the zstd hot loop.

2017-08-15lib: Add zstd modulesNick Terrell16-0/+11847
Add zstd compression and decompression kernel modules. zstd offers a wide varity of compression speed and quality trade-offs. It can compress at speeds approaching lz4, and quality approaching lzma. zstd decompressions at speeds more than twice as fast as zlib, and decompression speed remains roughly the same across all compression levels. The code was ported from the upstream zstd source repository. The `linux/zstd.h` header was modified to match linux kernel style. The cross-platform and allocation code was stripped out. Instead zstd requires the caller to pass a preallocated workspace. The source files were clang-formatted [1] to match the Linux Kernel style as much as possible. Otherwise, the code was unmodified. We would like to avoid as much further manual modification to the source code as possible, so it will be easier to keep the kernel zstd up to date. I benchmarked zstd compression as a special character device. I ran zstd and zlib compression at several levels, as well as performing no compression, which measure the time spent copying the data to kernel space. Data is passed to the compresser 4096 B at a time. The benchmark file is located in the upstream zstd source repository under `contrib/linux-kernel/zstd_compress_test.c` [2]. I ran the benchmarks on a Ubuntu 14.04 VM with 2 cores and 4 GiB of RAM. The VM is running on a MacBook Pro with a 3.1 GHz Intel Core i7 processor, 16 GB of RAM, and a SSD. I benchmarked using `silesia.tar` [3], which is 211,988,480 B large. Run the following commands for the benchmark: sudo modprobe zstd_compress_test sudo mknod zstd_compress_test c 245 0 sudo cp silesia.tar zstd_compress_test The time is reported by the time of the userland `cp`. The MB/s is computed with 1,536,217,008 B / time(buffer size, hash) which includes the time to copy from userland. The Adjusted MB/s is computed with 1,536,217,088 B / (time(buffer size, hash) - time(buffer size, none)). The memory reported is the amount of memory the compressor requests. | Method | Size (B) | Time (s) | Ratio | MB/s | Adj MB/s | Mem (MB) | |----------|----------|----------|-------|---------|----------|----------| | none | 11988480 | 0.100 | 1 | 2119.88 | - | - | | zstd -1 | 73645762 | 1.044 | 2.878 | 203.05 | 224.56 | 1.23 | | zstd -3 | 66988878 | 1.761 | 3.165 | 120.38 | 127.63 | 2.47 | | zstd -5 | 65001259 | 2.563 | 3.261 | 82.71 | 86.07 | 2.86 | | zstd -10 | 60165346 | 13.242 | 3.523 | 16.01 | 16.13 | 13.22 | | zstd -15 | 58009756 | 47.601 | 3.654 | 4.45 | 4.46 | 21.61 | | zstd -19 | 54014593 | 102.835 | 3.925 | 2.06 | 2.06 | 60.15 | | zlib -1 | 77260026 | 2.895 | 2.744 | 73.23 | 75.85 | 0.27 | | zlib -3 | 72972206 | 4.116 | 2.905 | 51.50 | 52.79 | 0.27 | | zlib -6 | 68190360 | 9.633 | 3.109 | 22.01 | 22.24 | 0.27 | | zlib -9 | 67613382 | 22.554 | 3.135 | 9.40 | 9.44 | 0.27 | I benchmarked zstd decompression using the same method on the same machine. The benchmark file is located in the upstream zstd repo under `contrib/linux-kernel/zstd_decompress_test.c` [4]. The memory reported is the amount of memory required to decompress data compressed with the given compression level. If you know the maximum size of your input, you can reduce the memory usage of decompression irrespective of the compression level. | Method | Time (s) | MB/s | Adjusted MB/s | Memory (MB) | |----------|----------|---------|---------------|-------------| | none | 0.025 | 8479.54 | - | - | | zstd -1 | 0.358 | 592.15 | 636.60 | 0.84 | | zstd -3 | 0.396 | 535.32 | 571.40 | 1.46 | | zstd -5 | 0.396 | 535.32 | 571.40 | 1.46 | | zstd -10 | 0.374 | 566.81 | 607.42 | 2.51 | | zstd -15 | 0.379 | 559.34 | 598.84 | 4.61 | | zstd -19 | 0.412 | 514.54 | 547.77 | 8.80 | | zlib -1 | 0.940 | 225.52 | 231.68 | 0.04 | | zlib -3 | 0.883 | 240.08 | 247.07 | 0.04 | | zlib -6 | 0.844 | 251.17 | 258.84 | 0.04 | | zlib -9 | 0.837 | 253.27 | 287.64 | 0.04 | Tested in userland using the test-suite in the zstd repo under `contrib/linux-kernel/test/UserlandTest.cpp` [5] by mocking the kernel functions. Fuzz tested using libfuzzer [6] with the fuzz harnesses under `contrib/linux-kernel/test/{RoundTripCrash.c,DecompressCrash.c}` [7] [8] with ASAN, UBSAN, and MSAN. Additionaly, it was tested while testing the BtrFS and SquashFS patches coming next.
