soc: apple: rtkit: Implement OSLog buffers properly

2025-06-04T12:42:04+00:00

[ Upstream commit a06398687065e0c334dc5fc4d2778b5b87292e43 ] Apparently nobody can figure out where the old logic came from, but it seems like it has never been actually used on any supported firmware to this day. OSLog buffers were apparently never requested. But starting with 13.3, we actually need this implemented properly for MTP (and later AOP) to work, so let's actually do that.

soc: apple: rtkit: Use high prio work queue

2025-06-04T12:42:04+00:00

[ Upstream commit 22af2fac88fa5dbc310bfe7d0b66d4de3ac47305 ] rtkit messages as communication with the DCP firmware for framebuffer swaps or input events are time critical so use WQ_HIGHPRI to prevent user space CPU load to increase latency. With kwin_wayland 6's explicit sync mode user space load was able to delay the IOMFB rtkit communication enough to miss vsync for surface swaps. Minimal test scenario is constantly resizing a glxgears Xwayland window.

Pull module updates from Luis Chamberlain: "The summary of the changes for this pull requests is: - Song Liu's new struct module_memory replacement - Nick Alcock's MODULE_LICENSE() removal for non-modules - My cleanups and enhancements to reduce the areas where we vmalloc module memory for duplicates, and the respective debug code which proves the remaining vmalloc pressure comes from userspace. Most of the changes have been in linux-next for quite some time except the minor fixes I made to check if a module was already loaded prior to allocating the final module memory with vmalloc and the respective debug code it introduces to help clarify the issue. Although the functional change is small it is rather safe as it can only *help* reduce vmalloc space for duplicates and is confirmed to fix a bootup issue with over 400 CPUs with KASAN enabled. I don't expect stable kernels to pick up that fix as the cleanups would have also had to have been picked up. Folks on larger CPU systems with modules will want to just upgrade if vmalloc space has been an issue on bootup. Given the size of this request, here's some more elaborate details: The functional change change in this pull request is the very first patch from Song Liu which replaces the 'struct module_layout' with a new 'struct module_memory'. The old data structure tried to put together all types of supported module memory types in one data structure, the new one abstracts the differences in memory types in a module to allow each one to provide their own set of details. This paves the way in the future so we can deal with them in a cleaner way. If you look at changes they also provide a nice cleanup of how we handle these different memory areas in a module. This change has been in linux-next since before the merge window opened for v6.3 so to provide more than a full kernel cycle of testing. It's a good thing as quite a bit of fixes have been found for it. Jason Baron then made dynamic debug a first class citizen module user by using module notifier callbacks to allocate / remove module specific dynamic debug information. Nick Alcock has done quite a bit of work cross-tree to remove module license tags from things which cannot possibly be module at my request so to: a) help him with his longer term tooling goals which require a deterministic evaluation if a piece a symbol code could ever be part of a module or not. But quite recently it is has been made clear that tooling is not the only one that would benefit. Disambiguating symbols also helps efforts such as live patching, kprobes and BPF, but for other reasons and R&D on this area is active with no clear solution in sight. b) help us inch closer to the now generally accepted long term goal of automating all the MODULE_LICENSE() tags from SPDX license tags In so far as a) is concerned, although module license tags are a no-op for non-modules, tools which would want create a mapping of possible modules can only rely on the module license tag after the commit 8b41fc4454e ("kbuild: create modules.builtin without Makefile.modbuiltin or tristate.conf"). Nick has been working on this *for years* and AFAICT I was the only one to suggest two alternatives to this approach for tooling. The complexity in one of my suggested approaches lies in that we'd need a possible-obj-m and a could-be-module which would check if the object being built is part of any kconfig build which could ever lead to it being part of a module, and if so define a new define -DPOSSIBLE_MODULE [0]. A more obvious yet theoretical approach I've suggested would be to have a tristate in kconfig imply the same new -DPOSSIBLE_MODULE as well but that means getting kconfig symbol names mapping to modules always, and I don't think that's the case today. I am not aware of Nick or anyone exploring either of these options. Quite recently Josh Poimboeuf has pointed out that live patching, kprobes and BPF would benefit from resolving some part of the disambiguation as well but for other reasons. The function granularity KASLR (fgkaslr) patches were mentioned but Joe Lawrence has clarified this effort has been dropped with no clear solution in sight [1]. In the meantime removing module license tags from code which could never be modules is welcomed for both objectives mentioned above. Some developers have also welcomed these changes as it has helped clarify when a module was never possible and they forgot to clean this up, and so you'll see quite a bit of Nick's patches in other pull requests for this merge window. I just picked up the stragglers after rc3. LWN has good coverage on the motivation behind this work [2] and the typical cross-tree issues he ran into along the way. The only concrete blocker issue he ran into was that we should not remove the MODULE_LICENSE() tags from files which have no SPDX tags yet, even if they can never be modules. Nick ended up giving up on his efforts due to having to do this vetting and backlash he ran into from folks who really did *not understand* the core of the issue nor were providing any alternative / guidance. I've gone through his changes and dropped the patches which dropped the module license tags where an SPDX license tag was missing, it only consisted of 11 drivers. To see if a pull request deals with a file which lacks SPDX tags you can just use: ./scripts/spdxcheck.py -f \ $(git diff --name-only commid-id | xargs echo) You'll see a core module file in this pull request for the above, but that's not related to his changes. WE just need to add the SPDX license tag for the kernel/module/kmod.c file in the future but it demonstrates the effectiveness of the script. Most of Nick's changes were spread out through different trees, and I just picked up the slack after rc3 for the last kernel was out. Those changes have been in linux-next for over two weeks. The cleanups, debug code I added and final fix I added for modules were motivated by David Hildenbrand's report of boot failing on a systems with over 400 CPUs when KASAN was enabled due to running out of virtual memory space. Although the functional change only consists of 3 lines in the patch "module: avoid allocation if module is already present and ready", proving that this was the best we can do on the modules side took quite a bit of effort and new debug code. The initial cleanups I did on the modules side of things has been in linux-next since around rc3 of the last kernel, the actual final fix for and debug code however have only been in linux-next for about a week or so but I think it is worth getting that code in for this merge window as it does help fix / prove / evaluate the issues reported with larger number of CPUs. Userspace is not yet fixed as it is taking a bit of time for folks to understand the crux of the issue and find a proper resolution. Worst come to worst, I have a kludge-of-concept [3] of how to make kernel_read*() calls for modules unique / converge them, but I'm currently inclined to just see if userspace can fix this instead" Link: https://lore.kernel.org/all/Y/kXDqW+7d71C4wz@bombadil.infradead.org/ [0] Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/025f2151-ce7c-5630-9b90-98742c97ac65@redhat.com [1] Link: https://lwn.net/Articles/927569/ [2] Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20230414052840.1994456-3-mcgrof@kernel.org [3] * tag 'modules-6.4-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mcgrof/linux: (121 commits) module: add debugging auto-load duplicate module support module: stats: fix invalid_mod_bytes typo module: remove use of uninitialized variable len module: fix building stats for 32-bit targets module: stats: include uapi/linux/module.h module: avoid allocation if module is already present and ready module: add debug stats to help identify memory pressure module: extract patient module check into helper modules/kmod: replace implementation with a semaphore Change DEFINE_SEMAPHORE() to take a number argument module: fix kmemleak annotations for non init ELF sections module: Ignore L0 and rename is_arm_mapping_symbol() module: Move is_arm_mapping_symbol() to module_symbol.h module: Sync code of is_arm_mapping_symbol() scripts/gdb: use mem instead of core_layout to get the module address interconnect: remove module-related code interconnect: remove MODULE_LICENSE in non-modules zswap: remove MODULE_LICENSE in non-modules zpool: remove MODULE_LICENSE in non-modules x86/mm/dump_pagetables: remove MODULE_LICENSE in non-modules ...

soc: apple: apple-pmgr-pwrstate: remove MODULE_LICENSE in non-modules

2023-04-13T20:13:50+00:00

Since commit 8b41fc4454e ("kbuild: create modules.builtin without Makefile.modbuiltin or tristate.conf"), MODULE_LICENSE declarations are used to identify modules. As a consequence, uses of the macro in non-modules will cause modprobe to misidentify their containing object file as a module when it is not (false positives), and modprobe might succeed rather than failing with a suitable error message. So remove it in the files in this commit, none of which can be built as modules.

Crop trailing whitespace, null, and newline characters in syslog messages received from coprocessors. Notably DCP sends its messages including a trailing newline, so prior to this change we would end up cluttering the kernel log by repeated newlines at the end of messages.

The buffer address field is missing two bits. This matters for the GPU, which uses upper-half 64-bit addresses on the ASC and those get sign extended from the mailbox message field, so the right number of high bits need to be set.

soc: apple: rtkit: Do not copy the reg state structure to the stack

2023-02-13T19:20:34+00:00

The register state struct is 848 bytes, which ends up bloating the apple_rtkit_crashlog_dump_regs stack frame beyond 1024 on some 32-bit platforms, triggering compile warnings. This doesn't matter for 64BIT/ARM64, but there's also no good reason to copy the structure to the stack in this case. We can use __packed to avoid alignment issues, there are no double-read hazards, and this is a fatal error path so performance does not matter.

soc: apple: rtkit: Add register dump decoding to crashlog

2023-01-31T11:44:47+00:00

When the coprocessor crashes, it's useful to get a proper register dump so we can find out what the firmware was doing. Add a decoder for this. Originally this had ESR decoding by reusing the ARM64 arch header for this, but that introduces some module linking and cross-arch compilation issues, so let's leave that out for now.
