2021-03-31docs: reporting-issues: reduce quoting and assorted fixesThorsten Leemhuis1-34/+45
A pile of small fixes: - don't quote terms like vanilla, mainline, and stable, unless in they occur in places where readers new to the kernel might see them for the first time - make people rule out that vendor patches are interfering if they face a regression in a stable or longterm kernel they saw in a vendor kernel for the first time - s/bugs/issues/ in a selected spots - exchange two headlines that got mixed up somehow - add a few links to some of the steps in the guide - Greg mentioned sending reports to the stable mailing list is sufficient, so remove the "CC stable maintainers" bits - fix a few typos and mistakes in the text, with a few very small improvements along the way Signed-off-by: Thorsten Leemhuis <linux@leemhuis.info> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/07bca15d8465b8e234537feb8841dd2ff20243bc.1617113469.git.linux@leemhuis.info Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>

2021-03-31pstore: Add mem_type property DT parsing supportMukesh Ojha1-1/+3
There could be a scenario where we define some region in normal memory and use them store to logs which is later retrieved by bootloader during warm reset. In this scenario, we wanted to treat this memory as normal cacheable memory instead of default behaviour which is an overhead. Making it cacheable could improve performance. This commit gives control to change mem_type from Device tree, and also documents the value for normal memory.

2021-03-24net: make unregister netdev warning timeout configurableDmitry Vyukov1-0/+11
netdev_wait_allrefs() issues a warning if refcount does not drop to 0 after 10 seconds. While 10 second wait generally should not happen under normal workload in normal environment, it seems to fire falsely very often during fuzzing and/or in qemu emulation (~10x slower). At least it's not possible to understand if it's really a false positive or not. Automated testing generally bumps all timeouts to very high values to avoid flake failures. Add net.core.netdev_unregister_timeout_secs sysctl to make the timeout configurable for automated testing systems. Lowering the timeout may also be useful for e.g. manual bisection. The default value matches the current behavior.

The single-argument variant of kfree_rcu() is currently not tested by any member of the rcutoture test suite. This commit therefore adds rcuscale code to test it. This testing is controlled by two new boolean module parameters, kfree_rcu_test_single and kfree_rcu_test_double. If one is set and the other not, only the corresponding variant is tested, otherwise both are tested, with the variant to be tested determined randomly on each invocation. Both of these module parameters are initialized to false, so setting either to true will test only that variant. Suggested-by: Paul E.

2021-03-09rcu: deprecate "all" option to rcu_nocbs=Paul Gortmaker1-3/+1
With the core bitmap support now accepting "N" as a placeholder for the end of the bitmap, "all" can be represented as "0-N" and has the advantage of not being specific to RCU (or any other subsystem). So deprecate the use of "all" by removing documentation references to it. The support itself needs to remain for now, since we don't know how many people out there are using it currently, but since it is in an __init area anyway, it isn't worth losing sleep over.

2021-03-09lib: bitmap: support "N" as an alias for size of bitmapPaul Gortmaker1-0/+7
While this is done for all bitmaps, the original use case in mind was for CPU masks and cpulist_parse() as described below. It seems that a common configuration is to use the 1st couple cores for housekeeping tasks. This tends to leave the remaining ones to form a pool of similarly configured cores to take on the real workload of interest to the user. So on machine A - with 32 cores, it could be 0-3 for "system" and then 4-31 being used in boot args like nohz_full=, or rcu_nocbs= as part of setting up the worker pool of CPUs. But then newer machine B is added, and it has 48 cores, and so while the 0-3 part remains unchanged, the pool setup cpu list becomes 4-47. Multiple deployment becomes easier when we can just simply replace 31 and 47 with "N" and let the system substitute in the actual number at boot; a number that it knows better than we do.

To make it works for them, add a paragraph in an earlier section to ensure people build their kernels with everything that's needed to decode stack traces later.

2021-03-07doc: memcontrol: add description for oom_killYang Shi1-0/+3
When debugging an oom issue, I found the oom_kill counter of memcg is confusing. At the first glance without checking document, I thought it just counts for memcg oom, but it turns out it counts both global and memcg oom. The cgroup v2 documents it, but the description is missed for cgroup v1.

2021-03-06locking/csd_lock: Add more data to CSD lock debuggingJuergen Gross1-0/+4
In order to help identifying problems with IPI handling and remote function execution add some more data to IPI debugging code. There have been multiple reports of CPUs looping long times (many seconds) in smp_call_function_many() waiting for another CPU executing a function like tlb flushing. Most of these reports have been for cases where the kernel was running as a guest on top of KVM or Xen (there are rumours of that happening under VMWare, too, and even on bare metal). Finding the root cause hasn't been successful yet, even after more than 2 years of chasing this bug by different developers. Commit: 35feb60474bf4f7 ("kernel/smp: Provide CSD lock timeout diagnostics") tried to address this by adding some debug code and by issuing another IPI when a hang was detected. This helped mitigating the problem (the repeated IPI unlocks the hang), but the root cause is still unknown. Current available data suggests that either an IPI wasn't sent when it should have been, or that the IPI didn't result in the target CPU executing the queued function (due to the IPI not reaching the CPU, the IPI handler not being called, or the handler not seeing the queued request). Try to add more diagnostic data by introducing a global atomic counter which is being incremented when doing critical operations (before and after queueing a new request, when sending an IPI, and when dequeueing a request). The counter value is stored in percpu variables which can be printed out when a hang is detected. The data of the last event (consisting of sequence counter, source CPU, target CPU, and event type) is stored in a global variable. When a new event is to be traced, the data of the last event is stored in the event related percpu location and the global data is updated with the new event's data. This allows to track two events in one data location: one by the value of the event data (the event before the current one), and one by the location itself (the current event). A typical printout with a detected hang will look like this: csd: Detected non-responsive CSD lock (#1) on CPU#1, waiting 5000000003 ns for CPU#06 scf_handler_1+0x0/0x50(0xffffa2a881bb1410). csd: CSD lock (#1) handling prior scf_handler_1+0x0/0x50(0xffffa2a8813823c0) request. csd: cnt(00008cc): ffff->0000 dequeue (src cpu 0 == empty) csd: cnt(00008cd): ffff->0006 idle csd: cnt(0003668): 0001->0006 queue csd: cnt(0003669): 0001->0006 ipi csd: cnt(0003e0f): 0007->000a queue csd: cnt(0003e10): 0001->ffff ping csd: cnt(0003e71): 0003->0000 ping csd: cnt(0003e72): ffff->0006 gotipi csd: cnt(0003e73): ffff->0006 handle csd: cnt(0003e74): ffff->0006 dequeue (src cpu 0 == empty) csd: cnt(0003e7f): 0004->0006 ping csd: cnt(0003e80): 0001->ffff pinged csd: cnt(0003eb2): 0005->0001 noipi csd: cnt(0003eb3): 0001->0006 queue csd: cnt(0003eb4): 0001->0006 noipi csd: cnt now: 0003f00 The idea is to print only relevant entries. Those are all events which are associated with the hang (so sender side events for the source CPU of the hanging request, and receiver side events for the target CPU), and the related events just before those (for adding data needed to identify a possible race). Printing all available data would be possible, but this would add large amounts of data printed on larger configurations. Signed-off-by: Juergen Gross <jgross@suse.com> [ Minor readability edits.

2021-03-06locking/csd_lock: Add boot parameter for controlling CSD lock debuggingJuergen Gross1-0/+6
Currently CSD lock debugging can be switched on and off via a kernel config option only. Unfortunately there is at least one problem with CSD lock handling pending for about 2 years now, which has been seen in different environments (mostly when running virtualized under KVM or Xen, at least once on bare metal). Multiple attempts to catch this issue have finally led to introduction of CSD lock debug code, but this code is not in use in most distros as it has some impact on performance. In order to be able to ship kernels with CONFIG_CSD_LOCK_WAIT_DEBUG enabled even for production use, add a boot parameter for switching the debug functionality on. This will reduce any performance impact of the debug coding to a bare minimum when not being used.

Add a kernel parameter stack_depot_disable to disable stack depot. So that stack hash table doesn't consume any memory when stack depot is disabled. The use case is CONFIG_PAGE_OWNER without page_owner=on. Without this patch, stackdepot will consume the memory for the hashtable. By default, it's 8M which is never trivial. With this option, in CONFIG_PAGE_OWNER configured system, page_owner=off, stack_depot_disable in kernel command line, we could save the wasted memory for the hashtable.

2021-02-26drivers/base/memory: don't store phys_device in memory blocksDavid Hildenbrand1-2/+2
No need to store the value for each and every memory block, as we can easily query the value at runtime. Reshuffle the members to optimize the memory layout. Also, let's clarify what the interface once was used for and why it's legacy nowadays. "phys_device" was used on s390x in older versions of lsmem[2]/chmem[3], back when they were still part of s390x-tools. They were later replaced by the variants in linux-utils. For example, RHEL6 and RHEL7 contain lsmem/chmem from s390-utils. RHEL8 switched to versions from util-linux on s390x [4]. "phys_device" was added with sysfs support for memory hotplug in commit 3947be1969a9 ("[PATCH] memory hotplug: sysfs and add/remove functions") in 2005. It always returned 0. s390x started returning something != 0 on some setups (if sclp.rzm is set by HW) in 2010 via commit 57b552ba0b2f ("memory hotplug/s390: set phys_device"). For s390x, it allowed for identifying which memory block devices belong to the same storage increment (RZM). Only if all memory block devices comprising a single storage increment were offline, the memory could actually be removed in the hypervisor. Since commit e5d709bb5fb7 ("s390/memory hotplug: provide memory_block_size_bytes() function") in 2013 a memory block device spans at least one storage increment - which is why the interface isn't really helpful/used anymore (except by old lsmem/chmem tools). There were once RFC patches to make use of "phys_device" in ACPI context; however, the underlying problem could be solved using different interfaces [1].

2021-02-25mm/vmscan: restore zone_reclaim_mode ABIDave Hansen1-5/+5
I went to go add a new RECLAIM_* mode for the zone_reclaim_mode sysctl. Like a good kernel developer, I also went to go update the documentation. I noticed that the bits in the documentation didn't match the bits in the #defines. The VM never explicitly checks the RECLAIM_ZONE bit. The bit is, however implicitly checked when checking 'node_reclaim_mode==0'. The RECLAIM_ZONE #define was removed in a cleanup. That, by itself is fine. But, when the bit was removed (bit 0) the _other_ bit locations also got changed. That's not OK because the bit values are documented to mean one specific thing. Users surely do not expect the meaning to change from kernel to kernel. The end result is that if someone had a script that did: sysctl vm.zone_reclaim_mode=1 it would have gone from enabling node reclaim for clean unmapped pages to writing out pages during node reclaim after the commit in question. That's not great. Put the bits back the way they were and add a comment so something like this is a bit harder to do again. Update the documentation to make it clear that the first bit is ignored.

2021-02-25mm: memcg: add swapcache stat for memcg v2Shakeel Butt1-0/+4
This patch adds swapcache stat for the cgroup v2. The swapcache represents the memory that is accounted against both the memory and the swap limit of the cgroup. The main motivation behind exposing the swapcache stat is for enabling users to gracefully migrate from cgroup v1's memsw counter to cgroup v2's memory and swap counters. Cgroup v1's memsw limit allows users to limit the memory+swap usage of a workload but without control on the exact proportion of memory and swap. Cgroup v2 provides separate limits for memory and swap which enables more control on the exact usage of memory and swap individually for the workload. With some little subtleties, the v1's memsw limit can be switched with the sum of the v2's memory and swap limits. However the alternative for memsw usage is not yet available in cgroup v2. Exposing per-cgroup swapcache stat enables that alternative. Adding the memory usage and swap usage and subtracting the swapcache will approximate the memsw usage. This will help in the transparent migration of the workloads depending on memsw usage and limit to v2' memory and swap counters. The reasons these applications are still interested in this approximate memsw usage are: (1) these applications are not really interested in two separate memory and swap usage metrics. A single usage metric is more simple to use and reason about for them. (2) The memsw usage metric hides the underlying system's swap setup from the applications. Applications with multiple instances running in a datacenter with heterogeneous systems (some have swap and some don't) will keep seeing a consistent view of their usage.
