mm/mmu_gather: invalidate TLB correctly on batch allocation failure and flush

2020-02-11T12:37:14+00:00

commit 0ed1325967ab5f7a4549a2641c6ebe115f76e228 upstream. Architectures for which we have hardware walkers of Linux page table should flush TLB on mmu gather batch allocation failures and batch flush. Some architectures like POWER supports multiple translation modes (hash and radix) and in the case of POWER only radix translation mode needs the above TLBI. This is because for hash translation mode kernel wants to avoid this extra flush since there are no hardware walkers of linux page table. With radix translation, the hardware also walks linux page table and with that, kernel needs to make sure to TLB invalidate page walk cache before page table pages are freed. More details in commit d86564a2f085 ("mm/tlb, x86/mm: Support invalidating TLB caches for RCU_TABLE_FREE") The changes to sparc are to make sure we keep the old behavior since we are now removing HAVE_RCU_TABLE_NO_INVALIDATE. The default value for tlb_needs_table_invalidate is to always force an invalidate and sparc can avoid the table invalidate. Hence we define tlb_needs_table_invalidate to false for sparc architecture.

2019-11-27T19:42:01+00:00

Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt: "New tracing features: - New PERMANENT flag to ftrace_ops when attaching a callback to a function. As /proc/sys/kernel/ftrace_enabled when set to zero will disable all attached callbacks in ftrace, this has a detrimental impact on live kernel tracing, as it disables all that it patched. If a ftrace_ops is registered to ftrace with the PERMANENT flag set, it will prevent ftrace_enabled from being disabled, and if ftrace_enabled is already disabled, it will prevent a ftrace_ops with PREMANENT flag set from being registered. - New register_ftrace_direct(). As eBPF would like to register its own trampolines to be called by the ftrace nop locations directly, without going through the ftrace trampoline, this function has been added. This allows for eBPF trampolines to live along side of ftrace, perf, kprobe and live patching. It also utilizes the ftrace enabled_functions file that keeps track of functions that have been modified in the kernel, to allow for security auditing. - Allow for kernel internal use of ftrace instances. Subsystems in the kernel can now create and destroy their own tracing instances which allows them to have their own tracing buffer, and be able to record events without worrying about other users from writing over their data. - New seq_buf_hex_dump() that lets users use the hex_dump() in their seq_buf usage. - Notifications now added to tracing_max_latency to allow user space to know when a new max latency is hit by one of the latency tracers. - Wider spread use of generic compare operations for use of bsearch and friends. - More synthetic event fields may be defined (32 up from 16) - Use of xarray for architectures with sparse system calls, for the system call trace events.

tracing: Use xarray for syscall trace events

2019-11-23T00:47:41+00:00

Currently, a lot of memory is wasted for architectures like MIPS when init_ftrace_syscalls() allocates the array for syscalls using kcalloc. This is because syscalls numbers start from 4000, 5000 or 6000 and array elements up to that point are unused. Fix this by using a data structure more suited to storing sparsely populated arrays. The XARRAY data structure, implemented using radix trees, is much more memory efficient for storing the syscalls in question.

y2038: allow disabling time32 system calls

2019-11-15T13:38:30+00:00

At the moment, the compilation of the old time32 system calls depends purely on the architecture. As systems with new libc based on 64-bit time_t are getting deployed, even architectures that previously supported these (notably x86-32 and arm32 but also many others) no longer depend on them, and removing them from a kernel image results in a smaller kernel binary, the same way we can leave out many other optional system calls. More importantly, on an embedded system that needs to keep working beyond year 2038, any user space program calling these system calls is likely a bug, so removing them from the kernel image does provide an extra debugging help for finding broken applications. I've gone back and forth on hiding this option unless CONFIG_EXPERT is set. This version leaves it visible based on the logic that eventually it will be turned off indefinitely.
