dma-direct: rename dma_noop to dma_direct

2018-01-15T08:35:06+00:00

The trivial direct mapping implementation already does a virtual to physical translation which isn't strictly a noop, and will soon learn to do non-direct but linear physical to dma translations through the device offset and a few small tricks. Rename it to a better fitting name. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig Reviewed-by: Vladimir Murzin

lib/scatterlist: Introduce sgl_alloc() and sgl_free()

2018-01-06T16:18:00+00:00

Many kernel drivers contain code that allocates and frees both a scatterlist and the pages that populate that scatterlist. Introduce functions in lib/scatterlist.c that perform these tasks instead of duplicating this functionality in multiple drivers. Only include these functions in the build if CONFIG_SGL_ALLOC=y to avoid that the kernel size increases if this functionality is not used.

kconfig: kill off GENERIC_IO option

2017-11-13T20:39:15+00:00

The GENERIC_IO option is set for every architecture except tile and score as those define NO_IOMEM. The option only controls visibility of CONFIG_MTD which doesn't appear to be necessary for any reason, so let's just remove GENERIC_IO.

lib: Add shared copies of some GCC library routines

2017-09-25T22:50:57+00:00

Many ports (m32r, microblaze, mips, parisc, score, and sparc) use functionally identical copies of various GCC library routine files, which came up as we were submitting the RISC-V port (which also uses some of these). This patch adds a new copy of these library routine files, which are functionally identical to the various other copies. These are availiable via Kconfig as CONFIG_GENERIC_$ROUTINE, which currently isn't used anywhere. Reviewed-by: Geert Uytterhoeven Signed-off-by: Palmer Dabbelt

Merge branch 'zstd-minimal' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mason/linux-btrfs

2017-09-15T00:30:49+00:00

Pull zstd support from Chris Mason: "Nick Terrell's patch series to add zstd support to the kernel has been floating around for a while. After talking with Dave Sterba, Herbert and Phillip, we decided to send the whole thing in as one pull request. zstd is a big win in speed over zlib and in compression ratio over lzo, and the compression team here at FB has gotten great results using it in production. Nick will continue to update the kernel side with new improvements from the open source zstd userland code. Nick has a number of benchmarks for the main zstd code in his lib/zstd commit: I ran the benchmarks on a Ubuntu 14.04 VM with 2 cores and 4 GiB of RAM. The VM is running on a MacBook Pro with a 3.1 GHz Intel Core i7 processor, 16 GB of RAM, and a SSD. I benchmarked using `silesia.tar` [3], which is 211,988,480 B large. Run the following commands for the benchmark: sudo modprobe zstd_compress_test sudo mknod zstd_compress_test c 245 0 sudo cp silesia.tar zstd_compress_test The time is reported by the time of the userland `cp`. The MB/s is computed with 1,536,217,008 B / time(buffer size, hash) which includes the time to copy from userland. The Adjusted MB/s is computed with 1,536,217,088 B / (time(buffer size, hash) - time(buffer size, none)). The memory reported is the amount of memory the compressor requests. | Method | Size (B) | Time (s) | Ratio | MB/s | Adj MB/s | Mem (MB) | |----------|----------|----------|-------|---------|----------|----------| | none | 11988480 | 0.100 | 1 | 2119.88 | - | - | | zstd -1 | 73645762 | 1.044 | 2.878 | 203.05 | 224.56 | 1.23 | | zstd -3 | 66988878 | 1.761 | 3.165 | 120.38 | 127.63 | 2.47 | | zstd -5 | 65001259 | 2.563 | 3.261 | 82.71 | 86.07 | 2.86 | | zstd -10 | 60165346 | 13.242 | 3.523 | 16.01 | 16.13 | 13.22 | | zstd -15 | 58009756 | 47.601 | 3.654 | 4.45 | 4.46 | 21.61 | | zstd -19 | 54014593 | 102.835 | 3.925 | 2.06 | 2.06 | 60.15 | | zlib -1 | 77260026 | 2.895 | 2.744 | 73.23 | 75.85 | 0.27 | | zlib -3 | 72972206 | 4.116 | 2.905 | 51.50 | 52.79 | 0.27 | | zlib -6 | 68190360 | 9.633 | 3.109 | 22.01 | 22.24 | 0.27 | | zlib -9 | 67613382 | 22.554 | 3.135 | 9.40 | 9.44 | 0.27 | I benchmarked zstd decompression using the same method on the same machine. The benchmark file is located in the upstream zstd repo under `contrib/linux-kernel/zstd_decompress_test.c` [4]. The memory reported is the amount of memory required to decompress data compressed with the given compression level. If you know the maximum size of your input, you can reduce the memory usage of decompression irrespective of the compression level. | Method | Time (s) | MB/s | Adjusted MB/s | Memory (MB) | |----------|----------|---------|---------------|-------------| | none | 0.025 | 8479.54 | - | - | | zstd -1 | 0.358 | 592.15 | 636.60 | 0.84 | | zstd -3 | 0.396 | 535.32 | 571.40 | 1.46 | | zstd -5 | 0.396 | 535.32 | 571.40 | 1.46 | | zstd -10 | 0.374 | 566.81 | 607.42 | 2.51 | | zstd -15 | 0.379 | 559.34 | 598.84 | 4.61 | | zstd -19 | 0.412 | 514.54 | 547.77 | 8.80 | | zlib -1 | 0.940 | 225.52 | 231.68 | 0.04 | | zlib -3 | 0.883 | 240.08 | 247.07 | 0.04 | | zlib -6 | 0.844 | 251.17 | 258.84 | 0.04 | | zlib -9 | 0.837 | 253.27 | 287.64 | 0.04 | I ran a long series of tests and benchmarks on the btrfs side and the gains are very similar to the core benchmarks Nick ran" * 'zstd-minimal' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mason/linux-btrfs: squashfs: Add zstd support btrfs: Add zstd support lib: Add zstd modules lib: Add xxhash module
