x86, ioremap: Speed up check for RAM pages

2014-07-17T23:23:20+00:00

commit c81c8a1eeede61e92a15103748c23d100880cc8a upstream.

In __ioremap_caller() (the guts of ioremap), we loop over the range of
pfns being remapped and checks each one individually with page_is_ram().
For large ioremaps, this can be very slow.  For example, we have a
device with a 256 GiB PCI BAR, and ioremapping this BAR can take 20+
seconds -- sometimes long enough to trigger the soft lockup detector!

Internally, page_is_ram() calls walk_system_ram_range() on a single
page.  Instead, we can make a single call to walk_system_ram_range()
from __ioremap_caller(), and do our further checks only for any RAM
pages that we find.  For the common case of MMIO, this saves an enormous
amount of work, since the range being ioremapped doesn't intersect
system RAM at all.

With this change, ioremap on our 256 GiB BAR takes less than 1 second.

powerpc: Disable RELOCATABLE for COMPILE_TEST with PPC64

2014-07-17T23:23:20+00:00

commit fb43e8477ed9006c4f397f904c691a120503038c upstream.

powerpc:allmodconfig has been failing for some time with the following
error.

arch/powerpc/kernel/exceptions-64s.S: Assembler messages:
arch/powerpc/kernel/exceptions-64s.S:1312: Error: attempt to move .org backwards
make[1]: *** [arch/powerpc/kernel/head_64.o] Error 1

A number of attempts to fix the problem by moving around code have been
unsuccessful and resulted in failed builds for some configurations and
the discovery of toolchain bugs.

Fix the problem by disabling RELOCATABLE for COMPILE_TEST builds instead.
While this is less than perfect, it avoids substantial code changes
which would otherwise be necessary just to make COMPILE_TEST builds
happy and might have undesired side effects.

arm64: implement TASK_SIZE_OF

2014-07-17T23:23:13+00:00

commit fa2ec3ea10bd377f9d55772b1dab65178425a1a2 upstream.

include/linux/sched.h implements TASK_SIZE_OF as TASK_SIZE if it
is not set by the architecture headers.  TASK_SIZE uses the
current task to determine the size of the virtual address space.
On a 64-bit kernel this will cause reading /proc/pid/pagemap of a
64-bit process from a 32-bit process to return EOF when it reads
past 0xffffffff.

Implement TASK_SIZE_OF exactly the same as TASK_SIZE with
test_tsk_thread_flag instead of test_thread_flag.

crypto: sha512_ssse3 - fix byte count to bit count conversion

powerpc/perf: Clear MMCR2 when enabling PMU

2014-07-17T23:23:12+00:00

commit b50a6c584bb47b370f84bfd746770c0bbe7129b7 upstream.

On POWER8 when switching to a KVM guest we set bits in MMCR2 to freeze
the PMU counters. Aside from on boot they are then never reset,
resulting in stuck perf counters for any user in the guest or host.

We now set MMCR2 to 0 whenever enabling the PMU, which provides a sane
state for perf to use the PMU counters under either the guest or the
host.

This was manifesting as a bug with ppc64_cpu --frequency:

    $ sudo ppc64_cpu --frequency
    WARNING: couldn't run on cpu 0
    WARNING: couldn't run on cpu 8
      ...
    WARNING: couldn't run on cpu 144
    WARNING: couldn't run on cpu 152
    min:    18446744073.710 GHz (cpu -1)
    max:    0.000 GHz (cpu -1)
    avg:    0.000 GHz

The command uses a perf counter to measure CPU cycles over a fixed
amount of time, in order to approximate the frequency of the machine.
The counters were returning zero once a guest was started, regardless of
weather it was still running or had been shut down.

By dumping the value of MMCR2, it was observed that once a guest is
running MMCR2 is set to 1s - which stops counters from running:

    $ sudo sh -c 'echo p > /proc/sysrq-trigger'
    CPU: 0 PMU registers, ppmu = POWER8 n_counters = 6
    PMC1:  5b635e38 PMC2: 00000000 PMC3: 00000000 PMC4: 00000000
    PMC5:  1bf5a646 PMC6: 5793d378 PMC7: deadbeef PMC8: deadbeef
    MMCR0: 0000000080000000 MMCR1: 000000001e000000 MMCRA: 0000040000000000

    SIAR:  00000000000a51cc SDAR:  c00000000fc40000 SIER:  0000000001000000

This is done unconditionally in book3s_hv_interrupts.S upon entering the
guest, and the original value is only save/restored if the host has
indicated it was using the PMU. This is okay, however the user of the
PMU needs to ensure that it is in a defined state when it starts using
it.

commit 4d9690dd56b0d18f2af8a9d4a279cb205aae3345 upstream.

Instead of separate bits for every POWER8 PMU feature, have a single one
for v2.07 of the architecture.

This saves us adding a MMCR2 define for a future patch.

powerpc/perf: Never program book3s PMCs with values >= 0x80000000

2014-07-17T23:23:12+00:00

commit f56029410a13cae3652d1f34788045c40a13ffc7 upstream.

We are seeing a lot of PMU warnings on POWER8:

    Can't find PMC that caused IRQ

Looking closer, the active PMC is 0 at this point and we took a PMU
exception on the transition from negative to 0. Some versions of POWER8
have an issue where they edge detect and not level detect PMC overflows.

A number of places program the PMC with (0x80000000 - period_left),
where period_left can be negative. We can either fix all of these or
just ensure that period_left is always >= 1.

This patch takes the second option.

powerpc/kvm: Remove redundant save of SIER AND MMCR2

2014-07-17T23:23:12+00:00

commit f73128f4f680e8be68cda831f2710214559583cb upstream.

These two registers are already saved in the block above. Aside from
being unnecessary, by the time we get down to the second save location
r8 no longer contains MMCR2, so we are clobbering the saved value with
PMC5.

MMCR2 primarily consists of counter freeze bits. So restoring the value
of PMC5 into MMCR2 will most likely have the effect of freezing
counters.

parisc: fix fanotify_mark() syscall on 32bit compat kernel

2014-07-17T23:23:08+00:00

commit ab8a261ba5e2dd9206da640de5870cc31d568a7c upstream.

On parisc we can not use the existing compat implementation for fanotify_mark()
because for the 64bit mask parameter the higher and lower 32bits are ordered
differently than what the compat function expects from big endian
architectures.

Specifically:
It finally turned out, that on hppa we end up with different assignments
of parameters to kernel arguments depending on if we call the glibc
wrapper function
 int fanotify_mark (int __fanotify_fd, unsigned int __flags,
                    uint64_t __mask, int __dfd, const char *__pathname);
or directly calling the syscall manually
 syscall(__NR_fanotify_mark, ...)

Reason is, that the syscall() function is implemented as C-function and
because we now have the sysno as first parameter in front of the other
parameters the compiler will unexpectedly add an empty paramenter in
front of the u64 value to ensure the correct calling alignment for 64bit
values.
This means, on hppa you can't simply use syscall() to call the kernel
fanotify_mark() function directly, but you have to use the glibc
function instead.

This patch fixes the kernel in the hppa-arch specifc coding to adjust
the parameters in a way as if userspace calls the glibc wrapper function
fanotify_mark().
