The pmu_init() function has the __init qualifier, but the ops struct that holds a pointer to it does not. This causes a build warning. The driver works fine because the pointer is only dereferenced early. The function is so small that there's negligible benefit from using the __init qualifier. Remove it to fix the warning, consistent with the other ADB drivers.

mmu_init_secondary() calls ppc44x_pin_tlb() which is marked __init, leading to a warning: The function mmu_init_secondary() references the function __init ppc44x_pin_tlb(). There's no CPU hotplug support on 44x so mmu_init_secondary() will only be called at boot. Therefore we should mark it as __init.

However what's really happening is that kmemleak is not able to recognise the references from the PGD to the PUD, because they are not fully qualified pointers. We can confirm that in xmon, eg: Find the task struct for pid 1 "init": 0:mon> P task_struct ->thread.ksp PID PPID S P CMD c0000001fe7c0000 c0000001fe803960 1 0 S 13 systemd Dump virtual address 0 to find the PGD: 0:mon> dv 0 c0000001fe7c0000 pgd @ 0xc0000000f8b01000 Dump the memory of the PGD: 0:mon> d c0000000f8b01000 c0000000f8b01000 00000000f8b90000 0000000000000000 |................| c0000000f8b01010 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 |................| c0000000f8b01020 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 |................| c0000000f8b01030 0000000000000000 00000000f8b80000 |................| ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ There we can see the reference to our supposedly leaked PUD. But because it's missing the leading 0xc, kmemleak won't recognise it. We can confirm it's still in use by translating an address that is mapped via it: 0:mon> dv 7fff94000000 c0000001fe7c0000 pgd @ 0xc0000000f8b01000 pgdp @ 0xc0000000f8b01038 = 0x00000000f8b80000 <-- pudp @ 0xc0000000f8b81ff8 = 0x00000000037c4000 pmdp @ 0xc0000000037c5ca0 = 0x00000000fbd89000 ptep @ 0xc0000000fbd89000 = 0xc0800001d5ce0386 Maps physical address = 0x00000001d5ce0000 Flags = Accessed Dirty Read Write The fix is fairly simple. We need to tell kmemleak to ignore PUD allocations and never report them as leaks. We can also tell it not to scan the PGD, because it will never find pointers in there. However it will still notice if we allocate a PGD and then leak it.

The RAW console does not need writes to be atomic, so relax opal_put_chars to be able to do partial writes, and implement an _atomic variant which does not take a spinlock. This API is used in xmon, so the less locking that is used, the better chance there is that a crash can be debugged.

OPAL console writes do not have to synchronously flush firmware / hardware buffers unless they are going through the udbg path. Remove the unconditional flushing from opal_put_chars. Flush if there was no space in the buffer as an optimisation (callers loop waiting for success in that case). udbg flushing is moved to udbg_opal_putc.

opal_put_chars deals with partial writes because in OPALv1, opal_console_write_buffer_space did not work correctly. That firmware is not supported. This reworks the opal_put_chars code to no longer deal with partial writes by turning them into full writes. Partial write handling is still supported in terms of what gets returned to the caller, but it may not go to the console atomically. A warning message is printed in this case. This allows console flushing to be moved out of the opal_write_lock spinlock. That could cause the lock to be held for long periods if the console is busy (especially if it was being spammed by firmware), which is dangerous because the lock is taken by xmon to debug the system. Flushing outside the lock improves the situation a bit.

A new console flushing firmware API was introduced to replace event polling loops, and implemented in opal-kmsg with affddff6 ("powerpc/powernv: Add a kmsg_dumper that flushes console output on panic"), to flush the console in the panic path. The OPAL console driver has other situations where interrupts are off and it needs to flush the console synchronously. These still use a polling loop. So move the opal-kmsg flush code to opal_flush_console, and use the new function in opal-kmsg and opal_put_chars.

Use the more refined and tested event polling loop from opal_put_chars as the fallback console flush in the opal-kmsg path. This loop is used by the console driver today, whereas the opal-kmsg fallback is not likely to have been used for years. Use WARN_ONCE rather than a printk when the fallback is invoked to prepare for moving the console flush into a common function.

The OPAL console driver does not delay in case it gets OPAL_BUSY or OPAL_BUSY_EVENT from firmware. It can't yet be made to sleep because it is called under spinlock, but it can be changed to the standard OPAL_BUSY loop form, and a delay added to keep it from hitting the firmware too frequently.

The intention here is to consume and discard the remaining buffer upon error. This works if there has not been a previous partial write. If there has been, then total_len is no longer total number of bytes to copy. total_len is always "bytes left to copy", so it should be added to written bytes. This code may not be exercised any more if partial writes will not be hit, but this is a small bugfix before a larger change.

This patch is based on the previous VMX patch on memcmp(). To optimize ppc64 memcmp() with VMX instruction, we need to think about the VMX penalty brought with: If kernel uses VMX instruction, it needs to save/restore current thread's VMX registers. There are 32 x 128 bits VMX registers in PPC, which means 32 x 16 = 512 bytes for load and store. The major concern regarding the memcmp() performance in kernel is KSM, who will use memcmp() frequently to merge identical pages. So it will make sense to take some measures/enhancement on KSM to see whether any improvement can be done here. Cyril Bur indicates that the memcmp() for KSM has a higher possibility to fail (unmatch) early in previous bytes in following mail. https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/817322/#1773629 And I am taking a follow-up on this with this patch. Per some testing, it shows KSM memcmp() will fail early at previous 32 bytes. More specifically: - 76% cases will fail/unmatch before 16 bytes; - 83% cases will fail/unmatch before 32 bytes; - 84% cases will fail/unmatch before 64 bytes; So 32 bytes looks a better choice than other bytes for pre-checking. The early failure is also true for memcmp() for non-KSM case. With a non-typical call load, it shows ~73% cases fail before first 32 bytes. This patch adds a 32 bytes pre-checking firstly before jumping into VMX operations, to avoid the unnecessary VMX penalty. It is not limited to KSM case. And the testing shows ~20% improvement on memcmp() average execution time with this patch. And note the 32B pre-checking is only performed when the compare size is long enough (>=4K currently) to allow VMX operation.

Currently memcmp() 64bytes version in powerpc will fall back to .Lshort (compare per byte mode) if either src or dst address is not 8 bytes aligned. It can be opmitized in 2 situations: 1) if both addresses are with the same offset with 8 bytes boundary: memcmp() can compare the unaligned bytes within 8 bytes boundary firstly and then compare the rest 8-bytes-aligned content with .Llong mode. 2) If src/dst addrs are not with the same offset of 8 bytes boundary: memcmp() can align src addr with 8 bytes, increment dst addr accordingly, then load src with aligned mode and load dst with unaligned mode. This patch optmizes memcmp() behavior in the above 2 situations. Tested with both little/big endian. Performance result below is based on little endian.
