2023-10-16lib: add light-weight queuing mechanism.Gravatar NeilBrown 3-1/+164
lwq is a FIFO single-linked queue that only requires a spinlock for dequeueing, which happens in process context. Enqueueing is atomic with no spinlock and can happen in any context. This is particularly useful when work items are queued from BH or IRQ context, and when they are handled one at a time by dedicated threads. Avoiding any locking when enqueueing means there is no need to disable BH or interrupts, which is generally best avoided (particularly when there are any RT tasks on the machine). This solution is superior to using "list_head" links because we need half as many pointers in the data structures, and because list_head lists would need locking to add items to the queue. This solution is superior to a bespoke solution as all locking and container_of casting is integrated, so the interface is simple. Despite the similar name, this solution meets a distinctly different need to kfifo. kfifo provides a fixed sized circular buffer to which data can be added at one end and removed at the other, and does not provide any locking. lwq does not have any size limit and works with data structures (objects?) rather than data (bytes). A unit test for basic functionality, which runs at boot time, is included. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de> Cc: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Cc: "Liam R.

2023-10-16llist: add llist_del_first_this()Gravatar NeilBrown 1-0/+28
llist_del_first_this() deletes a specific entry from an llist, providing it is at the head of the list. Multiple threads can call this concurrently providing they each offer a different entry. This can be uses for a set of worker threads which are on the llist when they are idle. The head can always be woken, and when it is woken it can remove itself, and possibly wake the next if there is an excess of work to do.

2023-10-14lib/bitmap: split-out string-related operations to a separate filesGravatar Yury Norov 3-513/+511
lib/bitmap.c and corresponding include/linux/bitmap.h are intended to hold functions related to operations on bitmaps, like bitmap_shift or bitmap_set. Historically, some string-related operations like bitmap_parse are also reside in lib/bitmap.c. Now that the subsystem evolves, string-related bitmap operations became a significant part of the file. Because they are quite different from the other bitmap functions by nature, it's worth to split them to a separate source/header files.

2023-10-10locking/atomics: Use atomic_try_cmpxchg_release() to micro-optimize ↵Gravatar Uros Bizjak 1-1/+1
rcuref_put_slowpath() Use atomic_try_cmpxchg() instead of atomic_cmpxchg(*ptr, old, new) == old in rcuref_put_slowpath(). On x86 the CMPXCHG instruction returns success in the ZF flag, so this change saves a compare after CMPXCHG. Additionaly, the compiler reorders some code blocks to follow likely/unlikely annotations in the atomic_try_cmpxchg() macro, improving the code from: 9a: f0 0f b1 0b lock cmpxchg %ecx,(%rbx) 9e: 83 f8 ff cmp $0xffffffff,%eax a1: 74 04 je a7 <rcuref_put_slowpath+0x27> a3: 31 c0 xor %eax,%eax to: 9a: f0 0f b1 0b lock cmpxchg %ecx,(%rbx) 9e: 75 4c jne ec <rcuref_put_slowpath+0x6c> a0: b0 01 mov $0x1,%al No functional change intended.

2023-10-01powerpc: Use shared font dataGravatar Dr. David Alan Gilbert 1-1/+1
PowerPC has a 'btext' font used for the console which is almost identical to the shared font_sun8x16, so use it rather than duplicating the data. They were actually identical until about a decade ago when commit bcfbeecea11c ("drivers: console: font_: Change a glyph from "broken bar" to "vertical line"") which changed the | in the shared font to be a solid bar rather than a broken bar. That's the only difference. This was originally spotted by the PMF source code analyser, which noticed that sparc does the same thing with the same data, and they also share a bunch of functions to manipulate the data. I've previously posted a near identical patch for sparc. Tested very lightly with a boot without FS in qemu.

2023-09-29maple_tree: add MAS_UNDERFLOW and MAS_OVERFLOW statesGravatar Liam R. Howlett 2-73/+235
When updating the maple tree iterator to avoid rewalks, an issue was introduced when shifting beyond the limits. This can be seen by trying to go to the previous address of 0, which would set the maple node to MAS_NONE and keep the range as the last entry. Subsequent calls to mas_find() would then search upwards from mas->last and skip the value at mas->index/mas->last. This showed up as a bug in mprotect which skips the actual VMA at the current range after attempting to go to the previous VMA from 0. Since MAS_NONE may already be set when searching for a value that isn't contained within a node, changing the handling of MAS_NONE in mas_find() would make the code more complicated and error prone. Furthermore, there was no way to tell which limit was hit, and thus which action to take (next or the entry at the current range). This solution is to add two states to track what happened with the previous iterator action. This allows for the expected behaviour of the next command to return the correct item (either the item at the range requested, or the next/previous). Tests are also added and updated accordingly.

2023-09-28kunit: test: Fix the possible memory leak in executor_testGravatar Jinjie Ruan 1-14/+22
When CONFIG_KUNIT_ALL_TESTS=y, making CONFIG_DEBUG_KMEMLEAK=y and CONFIG_DEBUG_KMEMLEAK_AUTO_SCAN=y, the below memory leak is detected. If kunit_filter_suites() succeeds, not only copy but also filtered_suite and filtered_suite->test_cases should be freed. So as Rae suggested, to avoid the suite set never be freed when KUNIT_ASSERT_EQ() fails and exits after kunit_filter_suites() succeeds, update kfree_at_end() func to free_suite_set_at_end() to use kunit_free_suite_set() to free them as kunit_module_exit() and kunit_run_all_tests() do it. As the second arg got of free_suite_set_at_end() is a local variable, copy it for free to avoid wild-memory-access. After applying this patch, the following memory leak is never detected. unreferenced object 0xffff8881001de400 (size 1024): comm "kunit_try_catch", pid 1396, jiffies 4294720452 (age 932.801s) hex dump

2023-09-25iov_iter: Convert iterate*() to inline funcsGravatar David Howells 1-241/+175
Convert the iov_iter iteration macros to inline functions to make the code easier to follow. The functions are marked __always_inline as we don't want to end up with indirect calls in the code. This, however, leaves dealing with ->copy_mc in an awkard situation since the step function (memcpy_from_iter_mc()) needs to test the flag in the iterator, but isn't passed the iterator. This will be dealt with in a follow-up patch. The variable names in the per-type iterator functions have been harmonised as much as possible and made clearer as to the variable purpose. The iterator functions are also moved to a header file so that other operations that need to scan over an iterator can be added. For instance, the rbd driver could use this to scan a buffer to see if it is all zeros and libceph could use this to generate a crc.

No new test have been added because there are already tests for the underlying string_stream. As the log tests now depend on string_stream functions they cannot build when kunit-test is a module. They have been surrounded by a #if to replace them with skipping version when the test is build as a module.

Instead of resource-managing individual allocations the whole string_stream can be resource-managed, if required. alloc_string_stream() now allocates a string stream that is not resource-managed. string_stream_destroy() now works on an unmanaged string_stream allocated by alloc_string_stream() and frees the entire string_stream (previously it only freed the fragments). string_stream_clear() has been made public for callers that want to free the fragments without destroying the string_stream. For resource-managed allocations use kunit_alloc_string_stream() and kunit_free_string_stream(). In addition to this, string_stream_get_string() now returns an unmanaged buffer that the caller must kfree().

This is preparing for decoupling the string_stream implementation from struct kunit, to reduce the amount of code churn when that happens. Currently: - kunit_alloc_string_stream() only calls alloc_string_stream(). - kunit_free_string_stream() takes a struct kunit* which isn't used yet. Callers of the old alloc_string_stream() and string_stream_destroy() are all requesting a managed allocation so have been changed to use the new functions. alloc_string_stream() has been temporarily made static because its current behavior has been replaced with kunit_alloc_string_stream().

2023-09-11arch: Remove Itanium (IA-64) architectureGravatar Ard Biesheuvel 3-9/+1
The Itanium architecture is obsolete, and an informal survey [0] reveals that any residual use of Itanium hardware in production is mostly HP-UX or OpenVMS based. The use of Linux on Itanium appears to be limited to enthusiasts that occasionally boot a fresh Linux kernel to see whether things are still working as intended, and perhaps to churn out some distro packages that are rarely used in practice. None of the original companies behind Itanium still produce or support any hardware or software for the architecture, and it is listed as 'Orphaned' in the MAINTAINERS file, as apparently, none of the engineers that contributed on behalf of those companies (nor anyone else, for that matter) have been willing to support or maintain the architecture upstream or even be responsible for applying the odd fix. The Intel firmware team removed all IA-64 support from the Tianocore/EDK2 reference implementation of EFI in 2018. (Itanium is the original architecture for which EFI was developed, and the way Linux supports it deviates significantly from other architectures.) Some distros, such as Debian and Gentoo, still maintain [unofficial] ia64 ports, but many have dropped support years ago. While the argument is being made [1] that there is a 'for the common good' angle to being able to build and run existing projects such as the Grid Community Toolkit [2] on Itanium for interoperability testing, the fact remains that none of those projects are known to be deployed on Linux/ia64, and very few people actually have access to such a system in the first place. Even if there were ways imaginable in which Linux/ia64 could be put to good use today, what matters is whether anyone is actually doing that, and this does not appear to be the case. There are no emulators widely available, and so boot testing Itanium is generally infeasible for ordinary contributors. GCC still supports IA-64 but its compile farm [3] no longer has any IA-64 machines. GLIBC would like to get rid of IA-64 [4] too because it would permit some overdue code cleanups. In summary, the benefits to the ecosystem of having IA-64 be part of it are mostly theoretical, whereas the maintenance overhead of keeping it supported is real. So let's rip off the band aid, and remove the IA-64 arch code entirely. This follows the timeline proposed by the Debian/ia64 maintainer [5], which removes support in a controlled manner, leaving IA-64 in a known good state in the most recent LTS release. Other projects will follow once the kernel support is removed.
