      libnvdimm, pmem: disable dax flushing when pmem is fronting a volatile region · 0b277961
      Dan Williams authored
      The pmem driver attaches to both persistent and volatile memory ranges
      advertised by the ACPI NFIT. When the region is volatile it is redundant
      to spend cycles flushing caches at fsync(). Check if the hosting region
      is volatile and do not set dax_write_cache() if it is.

      libnvdimm, pmem, dax: export a cache control attribute · 6e0c90d6
      Dan Williams authored
      The dax_flush() operation can be turned into a nop on platforms where
      firmware arranges for cpu caches to be flushed on a power-fail event.
      The ACPI 6.2 specification defines a mechanism for the platform to
      indicate this capability so the kernel can select the proper default.
      However, for other platforms, the administrator must toggle this setting
      manually.
      
      Given this flush setting is a dax-specific mechanism we advertise it
      through a 'dax' attribute group hanging off a host device. For example,
      a 'pmem0' block-device gets a 'dax' sysfs-subdirectory with a
      'write_cache' attribute to control response to dax cache flush requests.
      This is similar to the 'queue/write_cache' attribute that appears under
      block devices.

      libnvdimm, nfit: enable support for volatile ranges · c9e582aa
      Dan Williams authored
      Allow volatile nfit ranges to participate in all the same infrastructure
      provided for persistent memory regions. A resulting resulting namespace
      device will still be called "pmem", but the parent region type will be
      "nd_volatile". This is in preparation for disabling the dax ->flush()
      operation in the pmem driver when it is hosted on a volatile range.

      x86, dax, libnvdimm: remove wb_cache_pmem() indirection · 4e4f00a9
      Dan Williams authored
      With all handling of the CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_PMEM_API case being moved to
      libnvdimm and the pmem driver directly we do not need to provide global
      wrappers and fallbacks in the CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_PMEM_API=n case. The pmem
      driver will simply not link to arch_wb_cache_pmem() in that case.  Same
      as before, pmem flushing is only defined for x86_64, via
      clean_cache_range(), but it is straightforward to add other archs in the
      future.
      
      arch_wb_cache_pmem() is an exported function since the pmem module needs
      to find it, but it is privately declared in drivers/nvdimm/pmem.h because
      there are no consumers outside of the pmem driver.

      x86, dax: replace clear_pmem() with open coded memset + dax_ops->flush · 81f55870
      Dan Williams authored
      The clear_pmem() helper simply combines a memset() plus a cache flush.
      Now that the flush routine is optionally provided by the dax device
      driver we can avoid unnecessary cache management on dax devices fronting
      volatile memory.
      
      With clear_pmem() gone we can follow on with a patch to make pmem cache
      management completely defined within the pmem driver.

      filesystem-dax: convert to dax_flush() · 6318770a
      Dan Williams authored
      Filesystem-DAX flushes caches whenever it writes to the address returned
      through dax_direct_access() and when writing back dirty radix entries.
      That flushing is only required in the pmem case, so the dax_flush()
      helper skips cache management work when the underlying driver does not
      specify a flush method.
      
      We still do all the dirty tracking since the radix entry will already be
      there for locking purposes. However, the work to clean the entry will be
      a nop for some dax drivers.

      dax, pmem: introduce an optional 'flush' dax_operation · 3c1cebff
      Dan Williams authored
      Filesystem-DAX flushes caches whenever it writes to the address returned
      through dax_direct_access() and when writing back dirty radix entries.
      That flushing is only required in the pmem case, so add a dax operation
      to allow pmem to take this extra action, but skip it for other dax
      capable devices that do not provide a flush routine.
      
      An example for this differentiation might be a volatile ram disk where
      there is no expectation of persistence. In fact the pmem driver itself might
      front such an address range specified by the NFIT. So, this "no flush"
      property might be something passed down by the bus / libnvdimm.

      x86, uaccess: introduce copy_from_iter_flushcache for pmem / cache-bypass operations · 0aed55af
      Dan Williams authored
      The pmem driver has a need to transfer data with a persistent memory
      destination and be able to rely on the fact that the destination writes are not
      cached. It is sufficient for the writes to be flushed to a cpu-store-buffer
      (non-temporal / "movnt" in x86 terms), as we expect userspace to call fsync()
      to ensure data-writes have reached a power-fail-safe zone in the platform. The
      fsync() triggers a REQ_FUA or REQ_FLUSH to the pmem driver which will turn
      around and fence previous writes with an "sfence".
      
      Implement a __copy_from_user_inatomic_flushcache, memcpy_page_flushcache, and
      memcpy_flushcache, that guarantee that the destination buffer is not dirty in
      the cpu cache on completion. The new copy_from_iter_flushcache and sub-routines
      will be used to replace the "pmem api" (include/linux/pmem.h +
      arch/x86/include/asm/pmem.h). The availability of copy_from_iter_flushcache()
      and memcpy_flushcache() are gated by the CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_UACCESS_FLUSHCACHE
      config symbol, and fallback to copy_from_iter_nocache() and plain memcpy()
      otherwise.
      
      This is meant to satisfy the concern from Linus that if a driver wants to do
      something beyond the normal nocache semantics it should be something private to
      that driver [1], and Al's concern that anything uaccess related belongs with
      the rest of the uaccess code [2].
      
      The first consumer of this interface is a new 'copy_from_iter' dax operation so
      that pmem can inject cache maintenance operations without imposing this
      overhead on other dax-capable drivers.

      fs/ufs: Set UFS default maximum bytes per file · 239e250e
      Richard Narron authored
      This fixes a problem with reading files larger than 2GB from a UFS-2
      file system:
      
          https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=195721
      
      The incorrect UFS s_maxsize limit became a problem as of commit
      c2a9737f ("vfs,mm: fix a dead loop in truncate_inode_pages_range()")
      which started using s_maxbytes to avoid a page index overflow in
      do_generic_file_read().
      
      That caused files to be truncated on UFS-2 file systems because the
      default maximum file size is 2GB (MAX_NON_LFS) and UFS didn't update it.
      
      Here I simply increase the default to a common value used by other file
      systems.

      scripts/gdb: make lx-dmesg command work (reliably) · d6c97087
      André Draszik authored
      lx-dmesg needs access to the log_buf symbol from printk.c.
      Unfortunately, the symbol log_buf also exists in BPF's verifier.c and
      hence gdb can pick one or the other.  If it happens to pick BPF's
      log_buf, lx-dmesg doesn't work:
      
        (gdb) lx-dmesg
        Python Exception <class 'gdb.MemoryError'> Cannot access memory at address 0x0:
        Error occurred in Python command: Cannot access memory at address 0x0
        (gdb) p log_buf
        $15 = 0x0
      
      Luckily, GDB has a way to deal with this, see
        https://sourceware.org/gdb/onlinedocs/gdb/Symbols.html
      
        (gdb) info variables ^log_buf$
        All variables matching regular expression "^log_buf$":
      
        File <linux.git>/kernel/bpf/verifier.c:
        static char *log_buf;
      
        File <linux.git>/kernel/printk/printk.c:
        static char *log_buf;
        (gdb) p 'verifier.c'::log_buf
        $1 = 0x0
        (gdb) p 'printk.c'::log_buf
        $2 = 0x811a6aa0 <__log_buf> ""
        (gdb) p &log_buf
        $3 = (char **) 0x8120fe40 <log_buf>
        (gdb) p &'verifier.c'::log_buf
        $4 = (char **) 0x8120fe40 <log_buf>
        (gdb) p &'printk.c'::log_buf
        $5 = (char **) 0x8048b7d0 <log_buf>
      
      By being explicit about the location of the symbol, we can make lx-dmesg
      work again.  While at it, do the same for the other symbols we need from
      printk.c

      the reason is that the managed memory is too low (only 110MB) while the
      rest of the the 50GB is still waiting for the deferred intialization to
      be done.  update_defer_init estimates the initial memoty to initialize
      to 2GB at least but it doesn't consider any memory allocated in that
      range.  In this particular case we've had
      
      	Reserving 4096MB of memory at 128MB for crashkernel (System RAM: 51200MB)
      
      so the low 2GB is mostly depleted.
      
      Fix this by considering memblock allocations in the initial static
      initialization estimation.  Move the max_initialise to
      reset_deferred_meminit and implement a simple memblock_reserved_memory
      helper which iterates all reserved blocks and sums the size of all that
      start below the given address.  The cumulative size is than added on top
      of the initial estimation.  This is still not ideal because
      reset_deferred_meminit doesn't consider holes and so reservation might
      be above the initial estimation whihch we ignore but let's make the
      logic simpler until we really need to handle more complicated cases.

      mm/hugetlb: report -EHWPOISON not -EFAULT when FOLL_HWPOISON is specified · 9a291a7c
      James Morse authored
      KVM uses get_user_pages() to resolve its stage2 faults.  KVM sets the
      FOLL_HWPOISON flag causing faultin_page() to return -EHWPOISON when it
      finds a VM_FAULT_HWPOISON.  KVM handles these hwpoison pages as a
      special case.  (check_user_page_hwpoison())
      
      When huge pages are involved, this doesn't work so well.
      get_user_pages() calls follow_hugetlb_page(), which stops early if it
      receives VM_FAULT_HWPOISON from hugetlb_fault(), eventually returning
      -EFAULT to the caller.  The step to map this to -EHWPOISON based on the
      FOLL_ flags is missing.  The hwpoison special case is skipped, and
      -EFAULT is returned to user-space, causing Qemu or kvmtool to exit.
      
      Instead, move this VM_FAULT_ to errno mapping code into a header file
      and use it from faultin_page() and follow_hugetlb_page().
      
      With this, KVM works as expected.
      
      This isn't a problem for arm64 today as we haven't enabled
      MEMORY_FAILURE, but I can't see any reason this doesn't happen on x86
      too, so I think this should be a fix.  This doesn't apply earlier than
      stable's v4.11.1 due to all sorts of cleanup.
