mm: call flush_dcache_page() in memcpy_to_page() and memzero_page()

2021-07-28T12:37:40+00:00

commit 8dad53a11f8d94dceb540a5f8f153484f42be84b upstream. memcpy_to_page and memzero_page can write to arbitrary pages, which could be in the page cache or in high memory, so call flush_kernel_dcache_pages to flush the dcache. This is a problem when using these helpers on dcache challeneged architectures. Right now there are just a few users, chances are no one used the PC floppy driver, the aha1542 driver for an ISA SCSI HBA, and a few advanced and optional btrfs and ext4 features on those platforms yet since the conversion.

iov_iter: lift memzero_page() to highmem.h

2021-05-05T18:27:27+00:00

Patch series "btrfs: Convert kmap/memset/kunmap to memzero_user()". Lifting memzero_user(), convert it to kmap_local_page() and then use it in btrfs. This patch (of 3): memzero_page() can replace the kmap/memset/kunmap pattern in other places in the code. While zero_user() has the same interface it is not the same call and its use should be limited and some of those calls may be better converted from zero_user() to memzero_page().[1] But that is not addressed in this series. Lift memzero_page() to highmem.

mm/highmem: Lift memcpy_[to|from]_page to core

2021-02-11T18:54:43+00:00

Working through a conversion to a call kmap_local_page() instead of kmap() revealed many places where the pattern kmap/memcpy/kunmap occurred. Eric Biggers, Matthew Wilcox, Christoph Hellwig, Dan Williams, and Al Viro all suggested putting this code into helper functions. Al Viro further pointed out that these functions already existed in the iov_iter code.[1] Various locations for the lifted functions were considered. Headers like mm.h or string.h seem ok but don't really portray the functionality well. pagemap.h made some sense but is for page cache functionality.[2] Another alternative would be to create a new header for the promoted memcpy functions, but it masks the fact that these are designed to copy to/from pages using the kernel direct mappings and complicates matters with a new header. Placing these functions in 'highmem.h' is suboptimal especially with the changes being proposed in the functionality of kmap. From a caller perspective including/using 'highmem.h' implies that the functions defined in that header are only required when highmem is in use which is increasingly not the case with modern processors. However, highmem.h is where all the current functions like this reside (zero_user(), clear_highpage(), clear_user_highpage(), copy_user_highpage(), and copy_highpage()). So it makes the most sense even though it is distasteful for some.[3] Lift memcpy_to_page() and memcpy_from_page() to pagemap.h.

mm: support THPs in zero_user_segments

2020-12-15T20:13:45+00:00

We can only kmap() one subpage of a THP at a time, so loop over all relevant subpages, skipping ones which don't need to be zeroed. This is too large to inline when THPs are enabled and we actually need highmem, so put it in highmem.c.

mm/highmem: Provide kmap_local*

2020-11-24T13:42:09+00:00

Now that the kmap atomic index is stored in task struct provide a preemptible variant. On context switch the maps of an outgoing task are removed and the map of the incoming task are restored. That's obviously slow, but highmem is slow anyway. The kmap_local.*() functions can be invoked from both preemptible and atomic context. kmap local sections disable migration to keep the resulting virtual mapping address correct, but disable neither pagefaults nor preemption. A wholesale conversion of kmap_atomic to be fully preemptible is not possible because some of the usage sites might rely on the preemption disable for serialization or on the implicit pagefault disable. Needs to be done on a case by case basis. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner Acked-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20201118204007.468533059@linutronix.de
