| 2020-04-02 | mm/gup_benchmark: support pin_user_pages() and related calls | John Hubbard | 1 | -5/+66 | |
| Up until now, gup_benchmark supported testing of the following kernel functions: * get_user_pages(): via the '-U' command line option * get_user_pages_longterm(): via the '-L' command line option * get_user_pages_fast(): as the default (no options required) Add test coverage for the new corresponding pin_*() functions: * pin_user_pages_fast(): via the '-a' command line option * pin_user_pages(): via the '-b' command line option Also, add an option for clarity: '-u' for what is now (still) the default choice: get_user_pages_fast(). Also, for the commands that set FOLL_PIN, verify that the pages really are dma-pinned, via the new is_dma_pinned() routine. Those commands are: PIN_FAST_BENCHMARK : calls pin_user_pages_fast() PIN_BENCHMARK : calls pin_user_pages() In between the calls to pin_*() and unpin_user_pages(), check each page: if page_maybe_dma_pinned() returns false, then WARN and return. Do this outside of the benchmark timestamps, so that it doesn't affect reported times.

| 2020-01-31 | mm/gup_benchmark: use proper FOLL_WRITE flags instead of hard-coding "1" | John Hubbard | 1 | -3/+6 | |
| Fix the gup benchmark flags to use the symbolic FOLL_WRITE, instead of a hard-coded "1" value. Also, clean up the filtering of gup flags a little, by just doing it once before issuing any of the get_user_pages*() calls. This makes it harder to overlook, instead of having little "gup_flags & 1" phrases in the function calls.

| 2019-05-14 | mm/gup: replace get_user_pages_longterm() with FOLL_LONGTERM | Ira Weiny | 1 | -2/+3 | |
| Pach series "Add FOLL_LONGTERM to GUP fast and use it". HFI1, qib, and mthca, use get_user_pages_fast() due to its performance advantages. These pages can be held for a significant time. But get_user_pages_fast() does not protect against mapping FS DAX pages. Introduce FOLL_LONGTERM and use this flag in get_user_pages_fast() which retains the performance while also adding the FS DAX checks. XDP has also shown interest in using this functionality.[1] In addition we change get_user_pages() to use the new FOLL_LONGTERM flag and remove the specialized get_user_pages_longterm call. [1] https://lkml.org/lkml/2019/3/19/939 "longterm" is a relative thing and at this point is probably a misnomer. This is really flagging a pin which is going to be given to hardware and can't move. I've thought of a couple of alternative names but I think we have to settle on if we are going to use FL_LAYOUT or something else to solve the "longterm" problem. Then I think we can change the flag to a better name. Secondly, it depends on how often you are registering memory. I have spoken with some RDMA users who consider MR in the performance path... For the overall application performance. I don't have the numbers as the tests for HFI1 were done a long time ago. But there was a significant advantage. Some of which is probably due to the fact that you don't have to hold mmap_sem. Finally, architecturally I think it would be good for everyone to use *_fast. There are patches submitted to the RDMA list which would allow the use of *_fast (they reworking the use of mmap_sem) and as soon as they are accepted I'll submit a patch to convert the RDMA core as well. Also to this point others are looking to use *_fast. As an aside, Jasons pointed out in my previous submission that *_fast and *_unlocked look very much the same. I agree and I think further cleanup will be coming. But I'm focused on getting the final solution for DAX at the moment. This patch (of 7): This patch starts a series which aims to support FOLL_LONGTERM in get_user_pages_fast(). Some callers who would like to do a longterm (user controlled pin) of pages with the fast variant of GUP for performance purposes. Rather than have a separate get_user_pages_longterm() call, introduce FOLL_LONGTERM and change the longterm callers to use it. This patch does not change any functionality. In the short term "longterm" or user controlled pins are unsafe for Filesystems and FS DAX in particular has been blocked. However, callers of get_user_pages_fast() were not "protected". FOLL_LONGTERM can _only_ be supported with get_user_pages[_fast]() as it requires vmas to determine if DAX is in use. NOTE: In merging with the CMA changes we opt to change the get_user_pages() call in check_and_migrate_cma_pages() to a call of __get_user_pages_locked() on the newly migrated pages. This makes the code read better in that we are calling __get_user_pages_locked() on the pages before and after a potential migration. As a side affect some of the interfaces are cleaned up but this is not the primary purpose of the series. In review[1] it was asked: <quote> > This I don't get - if you do lock down long term mappings performance > of the actual get_user_pages call shouldn't matter to start with. > > What do I miss? A couple of points. First "longterm" is a relative thing and at this point is probably a misnomer. This is really flagging a pin which is going to be given to hardware and can't move.

| 2018-06-13 | treewide: kvzalloc() -> kvcalloc() | Kees Cook | 1 | -1/+1 | |
| The kvzalloc() function has a 2-factor argument form, kvcalloc(). This patch replaces cases of: kvzalloc(a * b, gfp) with: kvcalloc(a * b, gfp) as well as handling cases of: kvzalloc(a * b * c, gfp) with: kvzalloc(array3_size(a, b, c), gfp) as it's slightly less ugly than: kvcalloc(array_size(a, b), c, gfp) This does, however, attempt to ignore constant size factors like: kvzalloc(4 * 1024, gfp) though any constants defined via macros get caught up in the conversion.

| Patch series "mm/get_user_pages_fast fixes, cleanups", v2. Turns out get_user_pages_fast and __get_user_pages_fast return different values on error when given a single page: __get_user_pages_fast returns 0. get_user_pages_fast returns either 0 or an error. Callers of get_user_pages_fast expect an error so fix it up to return an error consistently. Stress the difference between get_user_pages_fast and __get_user_pages_fast to make sure callers aren't confused. This patch (of 3): __gup_benchmark_ioctl does not handle the case where get_user_pages_fast fails: - a negative return code will cause a buffer overrun - returning with partial success will cause use of uninitialized memory.
