Modern ARM CPUs can perform efficient unaligned memory accesses in hardware and this feature is relied up on by code such as the dcache word-at-a-time name hashing. This patch selects HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS for these cores and reworks the kconfig select logic for DCACHE_WORD_ACCESS to use the new symbol.

With commit 11ec50ca ("word-at-a-time: provide generic big-endian zero_bytemask implementation"), the asm-generic word-at-a-time code now provides a zero_bytemask implementation, allowing us to make use of DCACHE_WORD_ACCESS on big-endian CPUs, providing our load_unaligned_zeropad function is endianness-clean. This patch reworks the load_unaligned_zeropad fixup code to work for both big- and little-endian CPUs, then removes the !CPU_BIG_ENDIAN check when selecting DCACHE_WORD_ACCESS.

The ASID allocator has to deal with some pretty horrible behaviours by the CPU, so expand on some of the comments in there so I remember why we can never allocate ASID zero to a userspace task.

Since we only clear entries in the ASID bitmap on a rollover event, the bitmap tends to consist of a block of consecutive set bits followed by a block of consecutive clear bits. The exception to this rule is for ASIDs which have been carried over from a previous generation, but these are bound by the number of CPUs. This patch optimises our bitmap searching strategy, so that we search from the last successful allocation, rather than search from index 1 each time we allocate a new ASID.

Will Deacon authored
With the new ASID allocation algorithm, active ASIDs at the time of a rollover event will be marked as reserved, so active mm_structs can continue to operate with the same ASID as before. This in turn means that we don't need to worry about allocating a new ASID to an mm that is currently active (installed in TTBR0). Since updating the pgd and ASID is atomic on LPAE systems (by virtue of the two being fields in the same hardware register), we can dispose of the reserved TTBR0 and rely on whatever tables we currently have live.

These symbols are only referenced in this source file so can be made static, and the efficiency table is constant data so can be declared as such. This avoids polluting the global namespace and fixes warnings from sparse. The function arch_scale_freq_power() is still not prototyped or static, this is a separate issue as this is overriding a weak symbol from the scheduler which neglects to provide a prototype.

There is a miscompilation of csum_tcpudp_magic() due to the way we pass the asm() operands in. Fortunately, this doesn't affect the IP code, but can affect anyone who passes ntohs(udp->len) as the length argument, or protocols with more than 8 bits. The problem stems from passing 16-bit operands into an asm() - GCC makes no guarantees about what may be in the high 16-bits of such a register passed into assembly which is in the "HI" machine mode. Address this by changing the way we handle the 16-bit arguments - since accumulating the protocol and length can never overflow, we can delegate this to the compiler to perform, and then accumulate it into the checksum inside the asm(), taking account of the endian-ness via an appropriate 32-bit rotation. While we are here, also realise that there's a chance to optimise this a little: several callers from IP code pass a constant zero as the initial sum. This is wasteful - if we detect this condition, we can optimise away one instruction. Tested-by: Maxime Bizon <mbizon@freebox.fr> Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>

Set-associative caches on all v7 implementations map the index bits to physical addresses LSBs and tag bits to MSBs. As the last level of cache on current and upcoming ARM systems grows in size, this means that under normal DRAM controller configurations, the current v7 cache flush routine using set/way operations triggers a DRAM memory controller precharge/activate for every cache line writeback since the cache routine cleans lines by first fixing the index and then looping through ways (index bits are mapped to lower physical addresses on all v7 cache implementations; this means that, with last level cache sizes in the order of MBytes, lines belonging to the same set but different ways map to different DRAM pages). Given the random content of cache tags, swapping the order between indexes and ways loops do not prevent DRAM pages precharge and activate cycles but at least, on average, improves the chances that either multiple lines hit the same page or multiple lines belong to different DRAM banks, improving throughput significantly. This patch swaps the inner loops in the v7 cache flushing routine to carry out the clean operations first on all sets belonging to a given way (looping through sets) and then decrementing the way. Benchmarks showed that by swapping the ordering in which sets and ways are decremented in the v7 cache flushing routine, that uses set/way operations, time required to flush caches is reduced significantly, owing to improved writebacks throughput to the DRAM controller. Benchmarks results vary and depend heavily on the last level of cache tag RAM content when cache is cleaned and invalidated, ranging from 2x throughput when all tag RAM entries contain dirty lines mapping to sequential pages of RAM to 1x (ie no improvement) when all tag RAM accesses trigger a DRAM precharge/activate cycle, as the current code implies on most DRAM controller configurations.

Since commit 36bc08cc ("fs/aio: Add support to aio ring pages migration") the aio ring setup code has used a special per-ring backing inode for the page allocations, rather than just using random anonymous pages. However, rather than remembering the pages as it allocated them, it would allocate the pages, insert them into the file mapping (dirty, so that they couldn't be free'd), and then forget about them. And then to look them up again, it would mmap the mapping, and then use "get_user_pages()" to get back an array of the pages we just created. Now, not only is that incredibly inefficient, it also leaked all the pages if the mmap failed (which could happen due to excessive number of mappings, for example). So clean it all up, making it much more straightforward. Also remove some left-overs of the previous (broken) mm_populate() usage that was removed in commit d6c355c7 ("aio: fix race in ring buffer page lookup introduced by page migration support") but left the pointless and now misleading MAP_POPULATE flag around.

The arbitrary restriction on page counts offered by the core migrate_page_move_mapping() code results in rather suspicious looking fiddling with page reference counts in the aio_migratepage() operation. To fix this, make migrate_page_move_mapping() take an extra_count parameter that allows aio to tell the code about its own reference count on the page being migrated. While cleaning up aio_migratepage(), make it validate that the old page being passed in is actually what aio_migratepage() expects to prevent misbehaviour in the case of races.

Commit 1bf49dd4 ("./Makefile: export initial ramdisk compression config option") started setting the INITRD_COMPRESS environment variable depending on which decompression models the kernel had available. That is completely broken. For example, we by default have CONFIG_RD_LZ4 enabled, and are able to decompress such an initrd, but the user tools to *create* such an initrd may not be availble. So trying to tell dracut to generate an lz4-compressed image just because we can decode such an image is completely inappropriate.
