Pull x86 mm updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "The changes in here are:

   - text_poke() fixes and an extensive set of executability lockdowns,
     to (hopefully) eliminate the last residual circumstances under
     which we are using W|X mappings even temporarily on x86 kernels.
     This required a broad range of surgery in text patching facilities,
     module loading, trampoline handling and other bits.

   - tweak page fault messages to be more informative and more
     structured.

   - remove DISCONTIGMEM support on x86-32 and make SPARSEMEM the
     default.

   - reduce KASLR granularity on 5-level paging kernels from 512 GB to
     1 GB.

   - misc other changes and updates"

x86/mm/cpa: Add set_direct_map_*() functions

2019-04-30T10:37:56+00:00

Add two new functions set_direct_map_default_noflush() and
set_direct_map_invalid_noflush() for setting the direct map alias for the
page to its default valid permissions and to an invalid state that cannot
be cached in a TLB, respectively. These functions do not flush the TLB.

Note, __kernel_map_pages() does something similar but flushes the TLB and
doesn't reset the permission bits to default on all architectures.

Also add an ARCH config ARCH_HAS_SET_DIRECT_MAP for specifying whether
these have an actual implementation or a default empty one.

y2038: Make CONFIG_64BIT_TIME unconditional

2019-04-29T19:07:10+00:00

As Stepan Golosunov points out, there is a small mistake in the
get_timespec64() function in the kernel. It was originally added under the
assumption that CONFIG_64BIT_TIME would get enabled on all 32-bit and
64-bit architectures, but when the conversion was done, it was only turned
on for 32-bit ones.

The effect is that the get_timespec64() function never clears the upper
half of the tv_nsec field for 32-bit tasks in compat mode. Clearing this is
required for POSIX compliant behavior of functions that pass a 'timespec'
structure with a 64-bit tv_sec and a 32-bit tv_nsec, plus uninitialized
padding.

The easiest fix for linux-5.1 is to just make the Kconfig symbol
unconditional, as it was originally intended. As a follow-up, the #ifdef
CONFIG_64BIT_TIME can be removed completely..

Note: for native 32-bit mode, no change is needed, this works as
designed and user space should never need to clear the upper 32
bits of the tv_nsec field, in or out of the kernel.

locking/rwsem: Enable lock event counting

2019-04-10T08:56:06+00:00

Add lock event counting calls so that we can track the number of lock
events happening in the rwsem code.

With CONFIG_LOCK_EVENT_COUNTS on and booting a 4-socket 112-thread x86-64
system, the rwsem counts after system bootup were as follows:

  rwsem_opt_fail=261
  rwsem_opt_wlock=50636
  rwsem_rlock=445
  rwsem_rlock_fail=0
  rwsem_rlock_fast=22
  rwsem_rtrylock=810144
  rwsem_sleep_reader=441
  rwsem_sleep_writer=310
  rwsem_wake_reader=355
  rwsem_wake_writer=2335
  rwsem_wlock=261
  rwsem_wlock_fail=0
  rwsem_wtrylock=20583

It can be seen that most of the lock acquisitions in the slowpath were
write-locks in the optimistic spinning code path with no sleeping at
all. For this system, over 97% of the locks are acquired via optimistic
spinning. It illustrates the importance of optimistic spinning in
improving the performance of rwsem.

locking/lock_events: Make lock_events available for all archs & other locks

2019-04-10T08:56:04+00:00

The QUEUED_LOCK_STAT option to report queued spinlocks event counts
was previously allowed only on x86 architecture. To make the locking
event counting code more useful, it is now renamed to a more generic
LOCK_EVENT_COUNTS config option. This new option will be available to
all the architectures that use qspinlock at the moment.

Other locking code can now start to use the generic locking event
counting code by including lock_events.h and put the new locking event
names into the lock_events_list.h header file.

My experience with lock event counting is that it gives valuable insight
on how the locking code works and what can be done to make it better. I
would like to extend this benefit to other locking code like mutex and
rwsem in the near future.

The PV qspinlock specific code will stay in qspinlock_stat.h. The
locking event counters will now reside in the /lock_event_counts
directory.

asm-generic/tlb: Introduce CONFIG_HAVE_MMU_GATHER_NO_GATHER=y

2019-04-03T08:32:55+00:00

Add the Kconfig option HAVE_MMU_GATHER_NO_GATHER to the generic
mmu_gather code. If the option is set the mmu_gather will not
track individual pages for delayed page free anymore. A platform
that enables the option needs to provide its own implementation
of the __tlb_remove_page_size() function to free pages.

No change in behavior intended.

asm-generic/tlb, arch: Invert CONFIG_HAVE_RCU_TABLE_INVALIDATE

2019-04-03T08:32:47+00:00

Make issuing a TLB invalidate for page-table pages the normal case.

The reason is twofold:

 - too many invalidates is safer than too few,
 - most architectures use the linux page-tables natively
   and would thus require this.

Make it an opt-out, instead of an opt-in.

No change in behavior intended.
