Patch series "mm: folio_zero_user: clear page ranges", v11.
This series adds clearing of contiguous page ranges for hugepages.
The series improves on the current discontiguous clearing approach in two
ways:
- clear pages in a contiguous fashion.
- use batched clearing via clear_pages() wherever exposed.
The first is useful because it allows us to make much better use of
hardware prefetchers.
The second, enables advertising the real extent to the processor. Where
specific instructions support it (ex. string instructions on x86; "mops"
on arm64 etc), a processor can optimize based on this because, instead of
seeing a sequence of 8-byte stores, or a sequence of 4KB pages, it sees a
larger unit being operated on.
For instance, AMD Zen uarchs (for extents larger than LLC-size) switch to
a mode where they start eliding cacheline allocation. This is helpful not
just because it results in higher bandwidth, but also because now the
cache is not evicting useful cachelines and replacing them with zeroes.
Demand faulting a 64GB region shows performance improvement:
$ perf bench mem mmap -p $pg-sz -f demand -s 64GB -l 5
baseline +series
(GBps +- %stdev) (GBps +- %stdev)
pg-sz=2MB 11.76 +- 1.10% 25.34 +- 1.18% [*] +115.47% preempt=*
pg-sz=1GB 24.85 +- 2.41% 39.22 +- 2.32% + 57.82% preempt=none|voluntary
pg-sz=1GB (similar) 52.73 +- 0.20% [#] +112.19% preempt=full|lazy
[*] This improvement is because switching to sequential clearing
allows the hardware prefetchers to do a much better job.
[#] For pg-sz=1GB a large part of the improvement is because of the
cacheline elision mentioned above. preempt=full|lazy improves upon
that because, not needing explicit invocations of cond_resched() to
ensure reasonable preemption latency, it can clear the full extent
as a single unit. In comparison the maximum extent used for
preempt=none|voluntary is PROCESS_PAGES_NON_PREEMPT_BATCH (32MB).
When provided the full extent the processor forgoes allocating
cachelines on this path almost entirely.
(The hope is that eventually, in the fullness of time, the lazy
preemption model will be able to do the same job that none or
voluntary models are used for, allowing us to do away with
cond_resched().)
Raghavendra also tested previous version of the series on AMD Genoa and
sees similar improvement [1] with preempt=lazy.
$ perf bench mem map -p $page-size -f populate -s 64GB -l 10
base patched change
pg-sz=2MB 12.731939 GB/sec 26.304263 GB/sec 106.6%
pg-sz=1GB 26.232423 GB/sec 61.174836 GB/sec 133.2%
This patch (of 8):
Let's drop all variants that effectively map to clear_page() and provide
it in a generic variant instead.
We'll use the macro clear_user_page to indicate whether an architecture
provides it's own variant.
Also, clear_user_page() is only called from the generic variant of
clear_user_highpage(), so define it only if the architecture does not
provide a clear_user_highpage(). And, for simplicity define it in
linux/highmem.h.
Note that for parisc, clear_page() and clear_user_page() map to
clear_page_asm(), so we can just get rid of the custom clear_user_page()
implementation. There is a clear_user_page_asm() function on parisc, that
seems to be unused. Not sure what's up with that.

While the GCC and Clang compilers already define __ASSEMBLER__
automatically when compiling assembly code, __ASSEMBLY__ is a
macro that only gets defined by the Makefiles in the kernel.
This can be very confusing when switching between userspace
and kernelspace coding, or when dealing with uapi headers that
rather should use __ASSEMBLER__ instead. So let's standardize on
the __ASSEMBLER__ macro that is provided by the compilers now.
This is a completely mechanical patch (done with a simple "sed -i"
statement).

Pull networking updates from Paolo Abeni:
"The most significant set of changes is the per netns RTNL. The new
behavior is disabled by default, regression risk should be contained.
Notably the new config knob PTP_1588_CLOCK_VMCLOCK will inherit its
default value from PTP_1588_CLOCK_KVM, as the first is intended to be
a more reliable replacement for the latter.
Core:
- Started a very large, in-progress, effort to make the RTNL lock
scope per network-namespace, thus reducing the lock contention
significantly in the containerized use-case, comprising:
- RCU-ified some relevant slices of the FIB control path
- introduce basic per netns locking helpers
- namespacified the IPv4 address hash table
- remove rtnl_register{,_module}() in favour of
rtnl_register_many()
- refactor rtnl_{new,del,set}link() moving as much validation as
possible out of RTNL lock
- convert all phonet doit() and dumpit() handlers to RCU
- convert IPv4 addresses manipulation to per-netns RTNL
- convert virtual interface creation to per-netns RTNL
the per-netns lock infrastructure is guarded by the
CONFIG_DEBUG_NET_SMALL_RTNL knob, disabled by default ad interim.
- Introduce NAPI suspension, to efficiently switching between busy
polling (NAPI processing suspended) and normal processing.
- Migrate the IPv4 routing input, output and control path from direct
ToS usage to DSCP macros. This is a work in progress to make ECN
handling consistent and reliable.
- Add drop reasons support to the IPv4 rotue input path, allowing
better introspection in case of packets drop.
- Make FIB seqnum lockless, dropping RTNL protection for read access.
- Make inet{,v6} addresses hashing less predicable.
- Allow providing timestamp OPT_ID via cmsg, to correlate TX packets
and timestamps
Things we sprinkled into general kernel code:
- Add small file operations for debugfs, to reduce the struct ops
size.
- Refactoring and optimization for the implementation of page_frag
API, This is a preparatory work to consolidate the page_frag
implementation.
Netfilter:
- Optimize set element transactions to reduce memory consumption
- Extended netlink error reporting for attribute parser failure.
- Make legacy xtables configs user selectable, giving users the
option to configure iptables without enabling any other config.
- Address a lot of false-positive RCU issues, pointed by recent CI
improvements.
BPF:
- Put xsk sockets on a struct diet and add various cleanups. Overall,
this helps to bump performance by 12% for some workloads.
- Extend BPF selftests to increase coverage of XDP features in
combination with BPF cpumap.
- Optimize and homogenize bpf_csum_diff helper for all archs and also
add a batch of new BPF selftests for it.
- Extend netkit with an option to delegate skb->{mark,priority}
scrubbing to its BPF program.
- Make the bpf_get_netns_cookie() helper available also to tc(x) BPF
programs.
Protocols:
- Introduces 4-tuple hash for connected udp sockets, speeding-up
significantly connected sockets lookup.
- Add a fastpath for some TCP timers that usually expires after
close, the socket lock contention.
- Add inbound and outbound xfrm state caches to speed up state
lookups.
- Avoid sending MPTCP advertisements on stale subflows, reducing
risks on loosing them.
- Make neighbours table flushing more scalable, maintaining per
device neigh lists.
Driver API:
- Introduce a unified interface to configure transmission H/W
shaping, and expose it to user-space via generic-netlink.
- Add support for per-NAPI config via netlink. This makes napi
configuration persistent across queues removal and re-creation.
Requires driver updates, currently supported drivers are:
nVidia/Mellanox mlx4 and mlx5, Broadcom brcm and Intel ice.
- Add ethtool support for writing SFP / PHY firmware blocks.
- Track RSS context allocation from ethtool core.
- Implement support for mirroring to DSA CPU port, via TC mirror
offload.
- Consolidate FDB updates notification, to avoid duplicates on
device-specific entries.
- Expose DPLL clock quality level to the user-space.
- Support master-slave PHY config via device tree.
Tests and tooling:
- forwarding: introduce deferred commands, to simplify the cleanup
phase
Drivers:
- Updated several drivers - Amazon vNic, Google vNic, Microsoft vNic,
Intel e1000e and Broadcom Tigon3 - to use netdev-genl to link the
IRQs and queues to NAPI IDs, allowing busy polling and better
introspection.
- Ethernet high-speed NICs:

- mlx5:
- a large refactor to implement support for cross E-Switch
scheduling

As the get_order() implemented by xtensa supporting 'nsau'
instruction seems be the same as the generic implementation
in include/asm-generic/getorder.h when size is not a constant
value as the generic implementation calling the fls*() is also
utilizing the 'nsau' instruction for xtensa.
So remove the get_order() implemented by xtensa, as using the
generic implementation may enable the compiler to do the
computing when size is a constant value instead of runtime
computing and enable the using of get_order() in BUILD_BUG_ON()
macro in next patch.

There are many platforms with exact same value for VM_DATA_DEFAULT_FLAGS
This creates a default value for VM_DATA_DEFAULT_FLAGS in line with the
existing VM_STACK_DEFAULT_FLAGS. While here, also define some more
macros with standard VMA access flag combinations that are used
frequently across many platforms. Apart from simplification, this
reduces code duplication as well.

XIP (eXecute In Place) kernel image is the image that can be run
directly from ROM, using RAM only for writable data.
XIP xtensa kernel differs from regular xtensa kernel in the following
ways:
- it has exception/IRQ vectors merged into text section. No vectors
relocation takes place at kernel startup.
- .data/.bss location must be specified in the kernel configuration,
its content is copied there in the _startup function.
- .init.text is merged with the rest of text and is executed from ROM.
- when MMU is used the virtual address where the kernel will be mapped
must be specified in the kernel configuration. It may be in the KSEG
or in the KIO, __pa macro is adjusted to be able to handle both.

When __pa is applied to virtual address in uncached KSEG region the
result is incorrect. Fix it by checking if the original address is in
the uncached KSEG and adjusting the result. It looks better than masking
off bits because pfn_valid would correctly work with new __pa results
and it may be made working in noMMU case, once we get definition for
uncached memory view.
This is required for the dma_common_mmap and DMA debug code to work
correctly: they both indirectly use __pa with coherent DMA addresses.
In case of DMA debug the visible effect is false reports that an address
mapped for DMA is accessed by CPU.

Now that the kernel load address and KSEG physical base address have
their own Kconfig symbols PLATFORM_DEFAULT_MEM seems redundant. It makes
little sense to use it in MMU configurations instead of KSEG_PADDR.
In noMMU configurations there's no explicit KSEG, so it's still useful
for the early cache initialization and definition of ARCH_PFN_OFFSET,
which affects mem_map size.
- limit it to noMMU; MMU variants have XCHAL_KSEG_PADDR and
XCHAL_KSEG_SIZE;
- don't use it to define TASK_SIZE or MAX_LOW_PFN: first doesn't make
any difference in noMMU, second is meaningless as there's no high
memory;
- don't add default physical memory region: memory layout should come
from the DT, bootloader tags, or memmap= command line parameter.

Make kernel load address explicit, independent of the selected MMU
configuration and configurable from Kconfig. Do not restrict it to the
first 512MB of the physical address space.
Cleanup kernel memory layout macros:
- rename VECBASE_RESET_VADDR to VECBASE_VADDR, XC_VADDR to VECTOR_VADDR;
- drop VIRTUAL_MEMORY_ADDRESS and LOAD_MEMORY_ADDRESS;
- introduce PHYS_OFFSET and use it in __va and __pa definitions;
- synchronize MMU/noMMU vectors, drop unused NMI vector;
- replace hardcoded vectors offset of 0x3000 with Kconfig symbol.

MMUv3 is able to support low memory bigger than 128MB.
Implement 256MB and 512MB KSEG layouts:
- add Kconfig selector for KSEG layout;
- add KSEG base address, size and alignment definitions to
arch/xtensa/include/asm/kmem_layout.h;
- use new definitions in TLB initialization;
- add build time memory map consistency checks.
See Documentation/xtensa/mmu.txt for the details of new memory layouts.

noMMU configuration doesn't use special area for vmalloc allocations,
don't print it in the memory map.
PAGE_OFFSET is fixed to 0 in noMMU, use min_low_pfn and max_low_pfn for
lowmem range display.
Make all XCHAL_KSEG_* constants unsigned long for consistency with other
addresses.

Map high memory pages at virtual addresses with color that match color
of their physical address. Existing cache alias management mechanisms
may be used with such pages.

Existing clear_user_page and copy_user_page cannot be used with highmem
because they calculate physical page address from its virtual address
and do it incorrectly in case of high memory page mapped with
kmap_atomic. Also kmap is not needed, as most likely userspace mapping
color would be different from the kmapped color.
Provide clear_user_highpage and copy_user_highpage functions that
determine if temporary mapping is needed for the pages. Move most of the
logic of the former clear_user_page and copy_user_page to
xtensa/mm/cache.c only leaving temporary mapping setup, invalidation and
clearing/copying in the xtensa/mm/misc.S. Rename these functions to
clear_page_alias and copy_page_alias.

This is not useful: it provides page->virtual and is used with highmem.
xtensa has no support for highmem and those HIGHMEM bits which are found
by grep are partly implemented. The interesting functions like kmap() are
missing. If someone actually implements the complete HIGHMEM support he
could use HASHED_PAGE_VIRTUAL like most others do.

The current asm-generic/page.h only contains the get_order
function, and asm-generic/uaccess.h only implements
unaligned accesses. This renames the file to getorder.h
and uaccess-unaligned.h to make room for new page.h
and uaccess.h file that will be usable by all simple
(e.g. nommu) architectures.

The current assumption of the memory code is that the first RAM PFN in
the system is 0.
Adjust the relevant code to play well with setups where memory starts
at higher addresses, indicated by PLATFORM_DEFAULT_MEM_START.
The new memory model looks like this:
+----------+--+----------------------+----------------+
| | | | |
| | | RAM | |
| | | | |
+----------+--+----------------------+----------------+
| | | | |
+- PFN 0 | +- min_low_pfn +- max_low_pfn +- max_pfn
|
+- ARCH_PFN_OFFSET
+- PLATFORM_DEFAULT_MEM_START >> PAGE_SIZE
The memory map contains pages starting from pfn ARCH_PFN_OFFSET up to
max_low_pfn. The only zone used right now will span exactly the same
region.
Usually, ARCH_PFN_OFFSET and min_low_pfn are the same value. Handle
them separately for robustness. Gapping pages will be in the memory
map but marked as reserved and won't be touched.

Move all header files for xtensa to arch/xtensa/include and platform and
variant header files to the appropriate arch/xtensa/platforms/ and
arch/xtensa/variants/ directories.
Moving the files gets also rid of all uses of symlinks in the Makefile.
This has been completed already for the majority of the architectures
and xtensa is one out of six missing.
