<content type='text'>
The IO memcpy and IO memset functions in asm-generic/io.h simply call
memcpy and memset. This can lead to alignment problems or faults on
architectures that do not define their own version and fall back to
these defaults.
This patch introduces new implementations for IO memcpy and IO memset,
that use read{l,q} accessor functions, align accesses to machine word
size, and resort to byte accesses when the target memory is not aligned.
For new architectures and existing ones that were using the old
fallbacks these functions are save to use, because IO memory constraints
are taken into account. Moreover, architectures with similar
implementations can now use these new versions, not needing to implement
their own.

<title>asm-generic/io.h: Remove I/O port accessors for HAS_IOPORT=n</title>

With all subsystems and drivers either declaring their dependence on
HAS_IOPORT or fencing I/O port specific code sections we can finally
make inb()/outb() and friends compile-time dependent on HAS_IOPORT as
suggested by Linus in the linked mail. The main benefit of this is that
on platforms such as s390 which have no meaningful way of implementing
inb()/outb() their use without the proper HAS_IOPORT dependency will
result in easy to catch and fix compile-time errors instead of compiling
code that can never work.

Needed to avoid a new circular dependency with the memory allocation
profiling series.

Naturally, a whole bunch of files needed to include vmalloc.h that were
previously getting it implicitly.

Patch series "Memory allocation profiling", v6.

Overview:
Low overhead [1] per-callsite memory allocation profiling. Not just for
debug kernels, overhead low enough to be deployed in production.

Example output:
  root@moria-kvm:~# sort -rn /proc/allocinfo

     2894464    22613 fs/kernfs/dir.c:615 func:__kernfs_new_node
     ...

Usage:
kconfig options:
 - CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING
 - CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING_ENABLED_BY_DEFAULT
 - CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING_DEBUG
   adds warnings for allocations that weren't accounted because of a
   missing annotation

sysctl:
  /proc/sys/vm/mem_profiling

Runtime info:
  /proc/allocinfo

Notes:

[1]: Overhead
To measure the overhead we are comparing the following configurations:
(1) Baseline with CONFIG_MEMCG_KMEM=n
(2) Disabled by default (CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING=y &amp;&amp;
    CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING_BY_DEFAULT=n)
(3) Enabled by default (CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING=y &amp;&amp;
    CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING_BY_DEFAULT=y)
(4) Enabled at runtime (CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING=y &amp;&amp;
    CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING_BY_DEFAULT=n &amp;&amp; /proc/sys/vm/mem_profiling=1)
(5) Baseline with CONFIG_MEMCG_KMEM=y &amp;&amp; allocating with __GFP_ACCOUNT
(6) Disabled by default (CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING=y &amp;&amp;
    CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING_BY_DEFAULT=n)  &amp;&amp; CONFIG_MEMCG_KMEM=y
(7) Enabled by default (CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING=y &amp;&amp;
    CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING_BY_DEFAULT=y) &amp;&amp; CONFIG_MEMCG_KMEM=y

Performance overhead:
To evaluate performance we implemented an in-kernel test executing
multiple get_free_page/free_page and kmalloc/kfree calls with allocation
sizes growing from 8 to 240 bytes with CPU frequency set to max and CPU
affinity set to a specific CPU to minimize the noise. Below are results
from running the test on Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS with 6.8.0-rc1 kernel on
56 core Intel Xeon:

                        kmalloc                 pgalloc
(1 baseline)            6.764s                  16.902s
(2 default disabled)    6.793s  (+0.43%)        17.007s (+0.62%)
(3 default enabled)     7.197s  (+6.40%)        23.666s (+40.02%)
(4 runtime enabled)     7.405s  (+9.48%)        23.901s (+41.41%)
(5 memcg)               13.388s (+97.94%)       48.460s (+186.71%)
(6 def disabled+memcg)  13.332s (+97.10%)       48.105s (+184.61%)
(7 def enabled+memcg)   13.446s (+98.78%)       54.963s (+225.18%)

Memory consumption on a 56 core Intel CPU with 125GB of memory:
Code tags:           192 kB
PageExts:         262144 kB (256MB)
SlabExts:           9876 kB (9.6MB)
PcpuExts:            512 kB (0.5MB)

Total overhead is 0.2% of total memory.

This patch (of 37):

The next patch drops vmalloc.h from a system header in order to fix a
circular dependency; this adds it to all the files that were pulling it in
implicitly.

Usage:
kconfig options:
 - CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING
 - CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING_ENABLED_BY_DEFAULT
 - CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING_DEBUG
   adds warnings for allocations that weren't accounted because of a
   missing annotation

sysctl:
  /proc/sys/vm/mem_profiling

Runtime info:
  /proc/allocinfo

Notes:

[1]: Overhead
To measure the overhead we are comparing the following configurations:
(1) Baseline with CONFIG_MEMCG_KMEM=n
(2) Disabled by default (CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING=y &amp;&amp;
    CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING_BY_DEFAULT=n)
(3) Enabled by default (CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING=y &amp;&amp;
    CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING_BY_DEFAULT=y)
(4) Enabled at runtime (CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING=y &amp;&amp;
    CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING_BY_DEFAULT=n &amp;&amp; /proc/sys/vm/mem_profiling=1)
(5) Baseline with CONFIG_MEMCG_KMEM=y &amp;&amp; allocating with __GFP_ACCOUNT
(6) Disabled by default (CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING=y &amp;&amp;
    CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING_BY_DEFAULT=n)  &amp;&amp; CONFIG_MEMCG_KMEM=y
(7) Enabled by default (CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING=y &amp;&amp;
    CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING_BY_DEFAULT=y) &amp;&amp; CONFIG_MEMCG_KMEM=y

Performance overhead:
To evaluate performance we implemented an in-kernel test executing
multiple get_free_page/free_page and kmalloc/kfree calls with allocation
sizes growing from 8 to 240 bytes with CPU frequency set to max and CPU
affinity set to a specific CPU to minimize the noise. Below are results
from running the test on Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS with 6.8.0-rc1 kernel on
56 core Intel Xeon:

                        kmalloc                 pgalloc
(1 baseline)            6.764s                  16.902s
(2 default disabled)    6.793s  (+0.43%)        17.007s (+0.62%)
(3 default enabled)     7.197s  (+6.40%)        23.666s (+40.02%)
(4 runtime enabled)     7.405s  (+9.48%)        23.901s (+41.41%)
(5 memcg)               13.388s (+97.94%)       48.460s (+186.71%)
(6 def disabled+memcg)  13.332s (+97.10%)       48.105s (+184.61%)
(7 def enabled+memcg)   13.446s (+98.78%)       54.963s (+225.18%)

Memory overhead:

Memory consumption on a 56 core Intel CPU with 125GB of memory:
Code tags:           192 kB
PageExts:         262144 kB (256MB)
SlabExts:           9876 kB (9.6MB)
PcpuExts:            512 kB (0.5MB)

Total overhead is 0.2% of total memory.

This patch (of 37):

The next patch drops vmalloc.h from a system header in order to fix a
circular dependency; this adds it to all the files that were pulling it in
implicitly.

Architectures can be converted to GENERIC_IOREMAP, to take standard
ioremap_xxx() and iounmap() way.  But some ARCH-es could have specific
handling for ioremap_prot(), ioremap() and iounmap(), than standard
methods.

In oder to convert these ARCH-es to take GENERIC_IOREMAP method, allow
these architecutres to have their own ioremap_prot(), ioremap() and
iounmap() definitions.

Define a generic version of ioremap_prot() and iounmap() that
architectures can call after they have performed the necessary alteration
to parameters and/or necessary verifications.

Copy the forced type casts from the normal MMIO accessors to suppress
the sparse warnings that point out __raw_readl() returns a native endian
word (just like readl()).

Commit c1d55d50139b ("asm-generic/io.h: Fix sparse warnings on
big-endian architectures") missed fixing the 64-bit accessors.

Arnd explains in the attached link why the casts are necessary, even if
__raw_readq() and __raw_writeq() do not take endian-specific types.

<title>asm-generic/io: Add _RET_IP_ to MMIO trace for more accurate debug info</title>

<id>5e5ff73c2e5863f93fc5fd78d178cd8f2af12464</id>
<content type='text'>
Due to compiler optimizations like inlining, there are cases where
MMIO traces using _THIS_IP_ for caller information might not be
sufficient to provide accurate debug traces.

1) With optimizations (Seen with GCC):

In this case, _THIS_IP_ works fine and prints the caller information
since it will be inlined into the caller and we get the debug traces
on who made the MMIO access, for ex:

rwmmio_read: qcom_smmu_tlb_sync+0xe0/0x1b0 width=32 addr=0xffff8000087447f4
rwmmio_post_read: qcom_smmu_tlb_sync+0xe0/0x1b0 width=32 val=0x0 addr=0xffff8000087447f4

2) Without optimizations (Seen with Clang):

_THIS_IP_ will not be sufficient in this case as it will print only
the MMIO accessors itself which is of not much use since it is not
inlined as below for example:

rwmmio_read: readl+0x4/0x80 width=32 addr=0xffff8000087447f4
rwmmio_post_read: readl+0x48/0x80 width=32 val=0x4 addr=0xffff8000087447f4

So in order to handle this second case as well irrespective of the compiler
optimizations, add _RET_IP_ to MMIO trace to make it provide more accurate
debug information in all these scenarios.

Before:

rwmmio_read: readl+0x4/0x80 width=32 addr=0xffff8000087447f4
rwmmio_post_read: readl+0x48/0x80 width=32 val=0x4 addr=0xffff8000087447f4

After:

rwmmio_read: qcom_smmu_tlb_sync+0xe0/0x1b0 -&gt; readl+0x4/0x80 width=32 addr=0xffff8000087447f4
rwmmio_post_read: qcom_smmu_tlb_sync+0xe0/0x1b0 -&gt; readl+0x4/0x80 width=32 val=0x0 addr=0xffff8000087447f4
