mm/hugetlb: make pud_huge() and follow_huge_pud() aware of non-present pud entry

2022-08-09T01:06:43+00:00

follow_pud_mask() does not support non-present pud entry now. As long as I tested on x86_64 server, follow_pud_mask() still simply returns no_page_table() for non-present_pud_entry() due to pud_bad(), so no severe user-visible effect should happen. But generally we should call follow_huge_pud() for non-present pud entry for 1GB hugetlb page. Update pud_huge() and follow_huge_pud() to handle non-present pud entries. The changes are similar to previous works for pud entries commit e66f17ff7177 ("mm/hugetlb: take page table lock in follow_huge_pmd()") and commit cbef8478bee5 ("mm/hugetlb: pmd_huge() returns true for non-present hugepage").

x86/numa: Use cpumask_available instead of hardcoded NULL check

2022-08-03T09:44:57+00:00

GCC-12 started triggering a new warning: arch/x86/mm/numa.c: In function ‘cpumask_of_node’: arch/x86/mm/numa.c:916:39: warning: the comparison will always evaluate as ‘false’ for the address of ‘node_to_cpumask_map’ will never be NULL [-Waddress] 916 | if (node_to_cpumask_map[node] == NULL) { | ^~ node_to_cpumask_map is of type cpumask_var_t[]. When CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK is set, cpumask_var_t is typedef'd to a pointer for dynamic allocation, else to an array of one element. The "wicked game" can be checked on line 700 of include/linux/cpumask.h. The original code in debug_cpumask_set_cpu() and cpumask_of_node() were probably written by the original authors with CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK=y (i.e. dynamic allocation) in mind, checking if the cpumask was available via a direct NULL check. When CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK is not set, GCC gives the above warning while compiling the kernel. Fix that by using cpumask_available(), which does the NULL check when CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK is set, otherwise returns true. Use it wherever such checks are made. Conditional definitions of cpumask_available() can be found along with the definition of cpumask_var_t. Check the cpumask.h reference mentioned above.

Pull RCU updates from Paul McKenney: - Documentation updates - Miscellaneous fixes - Callback-offload updates, perhaps most notably a new RCU_NOCB_CPU_DEFAULT_ALL Kconfig option that causes all CPUs to be offloaded at boot time, regardless of kernel boot parameters. This is useful to battery-powered systems such as ChromeOS and Android. In addition, a new RCU_NOCB_CPU_CB_BOOST kernel boot parameter prevents offloaded callbacks from interfering with real-time workloads and with energy-efficiency mechanisms - Polled grace-period updates, perhaps most notably making these APIs account for both normal and expedited grace periods - Tasks RCU updates, perhaps most notably reducing the CPU overhead of RCU tasks trace grace periods by more than a factor of two on a system with 15,000 tasks. The reduction is expected to increase with the number of tasks, so it seems reasonable to hypothesize that a system with 150,000 tasks might see a 20-fold reduction in CPU overhead - Torture-test updates - Updates that merge RCU's dyntick-idle tracking into context tracking, thus reducing the overhead of transitioning to kernel mode from either idle or nohz_full userspace execution for kernels that track context independently of RCU.

virtio: replace restricted mem access flag with callback

2022-08-01T05:42:49+00:00

Instead of having a global flag to require restricted memory access for all virtio devices, introduce a callback which can select that requirement on a per-device basis. For convenience add a common function returning always true, which can be used for use cases like SEV. Per default use a callback always returning false. As the callback needs to be set in early init code already, add a virtio anchor which is builtin in case virtio is enabled.
