The size of the data structure is primarily controlled by the iovec size, which is limited to 256. Entries in this vector are 12 bytes, so the whole will always fit in a page. So it is safe to use kmalloc (kvmalloc not needed). So replace LIBCFS_ALLOC with kmalloc. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

This allocation is reasonably small. As the function is called "*_locked", it might not be safe to perform a GFP_KERNEL allocation, so be safe and use GFP_NOFS. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

When an allocation happens from process context rather than filesystem context, it is best to use GFP_KERNEL rather than LIBCFS_ALLOC() which always uses GFP_NOFS. This include initialization during, or prior to, mount, and code run from separate worker threads. So for some of these cases, switch to kmalloc, kvmalloc, or kvmalloc_array() as appropriate. In some cases we preserve __GFP_ZERO (via kzalloc/kvzalloc), but in others it is clear that allocated memory is immediately initialized. In each case, the matching LIBCFS_FREE() is converted to kfree() or kvfree() This is just a subset of locations that need changing. As there are quite a lot, I've broken them up into several ad-hoc sets to avoid review-fatigue.

The buffers allocated in router_proc are to temporarily hold strings created for procfs files. So they do not need to be zeroed and are safe to use GFP_KERNEL. So use kmalloc() directly except in two cases where it isn't trivial to confirm that the size is always small. In those cases, use kvmalloc().

All of the "name" buffers here are at most LST_NAME_SIZE+1 bytes, so 33 bytes at most. They are only used temporarily during the life of the function that allocates them. So it is much simpler to just allocate on the stack. Worst case is lst_tet_add_ioct(), which allocates 3 for these which 99 bytes on the stack, instead of the 24 that would have been allocated for 64-bit pointers.

So that we can use the common cpumask allocation functions, switch to cpumask_var_t. We need to be careful not to free a cpumask_var_t until the variable has been initialized, and it cannot be initialized directly. So we must be sure either that it is filled with zeros, or that zalloc_cpumask_var() has been called on it.

All usages of the form LIBCFS_ALLOC(variable, sizeof(variable)) or LIBCFS_ALLOC(variable, sizeof(variable's-type)) are changed to variable = kzalloc(sizeof(...), GFP_NOFS); Similarly, all LIBCFS_FREE(variable, sizeof(variable)) become kfree(variable); None of these need the vmalloc option, or any of the other minor benefits of LIBCFS_ALLOC().

This is a warning that validation of the ioctl fields failed. This was deliberately added as a warning to make it very obvious to developers that something needed to be fixed. In reality, this is overkill and disturbs fuzzing. Switch to pr_warn for a message instead.

Use the newly added DPIO service API to map cpu-affine DPIO services to channels. The DPAA2 Ethernet driver already had mappings of frame queues and channels to cpus, but had no control over the DPIOs used. We can now ensure full affinity of hotpath hardware resources to cores, which improves performance and almost eliminates some resource contentions (e.g. enqueue/dequeue busy counters should be close to zero from now on). Making the pull channel operation core affine brings the most significant benefits. This ensures the same DPIO service will be used for all dequeue commands issued for a certain frame queue, which is in line with the way hardware is optimized. Additionally, we also use affine DPIOs for the frame enqueue and buffer release operations in order to avoid resource contention. dpaa2_io_service_register() and dpaa2_io_service_rearm() functions receive an affine DPIO as argument mostly for uniformity, but this doesn't change the previous functionality.

All DPIO service API functions receive a dpaa2_io service pointer as parameter (NULL meaning any service will do) which indicates the hardware resource to be used to execute the specified command. There isn't however any available API for obtaining such a service reference that could be used further, effectively forcing the users to always request a random service for DPIO operations. (The DPIO driver holds internally an array mapping services to cpus, and affine services can be indirectly requested by a couple of API functions: dpaa2_io_service_register and dpaa2_io_service_rearm use the cpu id provided by the user to select the corresponding service) This patch adds a function for selecting a DPIO service based on the specified cpu id. If the user provides a "don't care" value for the cpu, we revert to the default behavior and return the next DPIO, taken in a round-robin fashion from a list of available services.

Coccinelle suggested to use BUG_ON instead of if condition followed by BUG but BUG_ON should be used in situations where integrity of the system is no longer guaranteed. In this case, as suggested by Stefan Wahren, vchiq isn't critical. Since it is not critical, BUG_ON should be avoided. Replaced if condition followed by BUG with WARN_ON_ONCE.
