powerpc, membarrier: Skip memory barrier in switch_mm()

2018-02-05T20:34:02+00:00

Allow PowerPC to skip the full memory barrier in switch_mm(), and only issue the barrier when scheduling into a task belonging to a process that has registered to use expedited private. Threads targeting the same VM but which belong to different thread groups is a tricky case. It has a few consequences: It turns out that we cannot rely on get_nr_threads(p) to count the number of threads using a VM. We can use (atomic_read(&mm->mm_users) == 1 && get_nr_threads(p) == 1) instead to skip the synchronize_sched() for cases where the VM only has a single user, and that user only has a single thread. It also turns out that we cannot use for_each_thread() to set thread flags in all threads using a VM, as it only iterates on the thread group. Therefore, test the membarrier state variable directly rather than relying on thread flags. This means membarrier_register_private_expedited() needs to set the MEMBARRIER_STATE_PRIVATE_EXPEDITED flag, issue synchronize_sched(), and only then set MEMBARRIER_STATE_PRIVATE_EXPEDITED_READY which allows private expedited membarrier commands to succeed. membarrier_arch_switch_mm() now tests for the MEMBARRIER_STATE_PRIVATE_EXPEDITED flag.

Pull powerpc updates from Michael Ellerman: "Highlights: - Enable support for memory protection keys aka "pkeys" on Power7/8/9 when using the hash table MMU. - Extend our interrupt soft masking to support masking PMU interrupts as well as "normal" interrupts, and then use that to implement local_t for a ~4x speedup vs the current atomics-based implementation. - A new driver "ocxl" for "Open Coherent Accelerator Processor Interface (OpenCAPI)" devices. - Support for new device tree properties on PowerVM to describe hotpluggable memory and devices. - Add support for CLOCK_{REALTIME/MONOTONIC}_COARSE to the 64-bit VDSO. - Freescale updates from Scott: fixes for CPM GPIO and an FSL PCI erratum workaround, plus a minor cleanup patch. As well as quite a lot of other changes all over the place, and small fixes and cleanups as always.

mm: relax deferred struct page requirements

2018-02-01T01:18:36+00:00

There is no need to have ARCH_SUPPORTS_DEFERRED_STRUCT_PAGE_INIT, as all the page initialization code is in common code. Also, there is no need to depend on MEMORY_HOTPLUG, as initialization code does not really use hotplug memory functionality. So, we can remove this requirement as well. This patch allows to use deferred struct page initialization on all platforms with memblock allocator. Tested on x86, arm64, and sparc. Also, verified that code compiles on PPC with CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG disabled.

Merge branch 'fixes' into next

2018-01-21T12:21:14+00:00

Merge our fixes branch from the 4.15 cycle. Unusually the fixes branch saw some significant features merged, notably the RFI flush patches, so we want the code in next to be tested against that, to avoid any surprises when the two are merged. There's also some other work on the panic handling that was reverted in fixes and we now want to do properly in next, which would conflict. And we also fix a few other minor merge conflicts.

powerpc/64s: Wire up cpu_show_meltdown()

2018-01-17T12:30:20+00:00

The recent commit 87590ce6e373 ("sysfs/cpu: Add vulnerability folder") added a generic folder and set of files for reporting information on CPU vulnerabilities. One of those was for meltdown: /sys/devices/system/cpu/vulnerabilities/meltdown This commit wires up that file for 64-bit Book3S powerpc. For now we default to "Vulnerable" unless the RFI flush is enabled. That may not actually be true on all hardware, further patches will refine the reporting based on the CPU/platform etc. But for now we default to being pessimists. Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman

dma-mapping: move swiotlb arch helpers to a new header

2018-01-10T15:40:54+00:00

phys_to_dma, dma_to_phys and dma_capable are helpers published by architecture code for use of swiotlb and xen-swiotlb only. Drivers are not supposed to use these directly, but use the DMA API instead. Move these to a new asm/dma-direct.h helper, included by a linux/dma-direct.h wrapper that provides the default linear mapping unless the architecture wants to override it. In the MIPS case the existing dma-coherent.h is reused for now as untangling it will take a bit of work. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig Acked-by: Robin Murphy
