<id>46e27b9961d8712bc89234444ede314cec0e8bae</id>
<content type='text'>
The kmemleak code sometimes complains about the following leak:

unreferenced object 0xffff8000102e0000 (size 32768):
  comm "swapper/0", pid 1, jiffies 4294937323 (age 71.240s)
  hex dump (first 32 bytes):
    00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00  ................
    00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00  ................
  backtrace:
    [&lt;00000000db9a88a3&gt;] __vmalloc_node_range+0x324/0x450
    [&lt;00000000ff8903a4&gt;] __vmalloc_node+0x90/0xd0
    [&lt;000000001a06634f&gt;] arm64_efi_rt_init+0x64/0xdc

    [&lt;00000000308092d0&gt;] kernel_init_freeable+0x2c0/0x2f0

    [&lt;000000002246af5b&gt;] ret_from_fork+0x10/0x20

The memory object in this case is for efi_rt_stack_top and is allocated
in an initcall. So this is certainly a false positive. Mark the object
as not a leak to quash it.

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:

     ...

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.

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.

<title>arm64/mm: new ptep layer to manage contig bit</title>

<content type='text'>
Create a new layer for the in-table PTE manipulation APIs.  For now, The
existing API is prefixed with double underscore to become the arch-private
API and the public API is just a simple wrapper that calls the private
API.

The public API implementation will subsequently be used to transparently
manipulate the contiguous bit where appropriate.  But since there are
already some contig-aware users (e.g.  hugetlb, kernel mapper), we must
first ensure those users use the private API directly so that the future
contig-bit manipulations in the public API do not interfere with those
existing uses.

The following APIs are treated this way:

 - ptep_get
 - set_pte
 - set_ptes
 - pte_clear
 - ptep_get_and_clear
 - ptep_test_and_clear_young
 - ptep_clear_flush_young
 - ptep_set_wrprotect
 - ptep_set_access_flags

There are a number of places in the arch code that read a pte by using the
READ_ONCE() macro.  Refactor these call sites to instead use the
ptep_get() helper, which itself is a READ_ONCE().  Generated code should
be the same.

This will benefit us when we shortly introduce the transparent contpte
support.  In this case, ptep_get() will become more complex so we now have
all the code abstracted through it.

<title>efi: move screen_info into efi init code</title>

<content type='text'>
After the vga console no longer relies on global screen_info, there are
only two remaining use cases:

 - on the x86 architecture, it is used for multiple boot methods
   (bzImage, EFI, Xen, kexec) to commucate the initial VGA or framebuffer
   settings to a number of device drivers.

 - on other architectures, it is only used as part of the EFI stub,
   and only for the three sysfb framebuffers (simpledrm, simplefb, efifb).

Remove the duplicate data structure definitions by moving it into the
efi-init.c file that sets it up initially for the EFI case, leaving x86
as an exception that retains its own definition for non-EFI boots.

The added #ifdefs here are optional, I added them to further limit the
reach of screen_info to configurations that have at least one of the
users enabled.

<title>arm64: Avoid cpus_have_const_cap() for ARM64_HAS_BTI</title>
<updated>2023-10-16T13:17:04+00:00</updated>

<name>Mark Rutland</name>
<email>mark.rutland@arm.com</email>

<published>2023-10-16T10:24:39+00:00</published>
<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.tavy.me/linux.git/commit/?id=bbbb65770bf44d3eaec5b7784028756b58ea08db'/>
<id>bbbb65770bf44d3eaec5b7784028756b58ea08db</id>
<content type='text'>
In system_supports_bti() we use cpus_have_const_cap() to check for
ARM64_HAS_BTI, but this is not necessary and alternative_has_cap_*() or
cpus_have_final_*cap() would be preferable.

For historical reasons, cpus_have_const_cap() is more complicated than
it needs to be. Before cpucaps are finalized, it will perform a bitmap
test of the system_cpucaps bitmap, and once cpucaps are finalized it
will use an alternative branch. This used to be necessary to handle some
race conditions in the window between cpucap detection and the
subsequent patching of alternatives and static branches, where different
branches could be out-of-sync with one another (or w.r.t. alternative
sequences). Now that we use alternative branches instead of static
branches, these are all patched atomically w.r.t. one another, and there
are only a handful of cases that need special care in the window between
cpucap detection and alternative patching.

Due to the above, it would be nice to remove cpus_have_const_cap(), and
migrate callers over to alternative_has_cap_*(), cpus_have_final_cap(),
or cpus_have_cap() depending on when their requirements. This will
remove redundant instructions and improve code generation, and will make
it easier to determine how each callsite will behave before, during, and
after alternative patching.

When CONFIG_ARM64_BTI_KERNEL=y, the ARM64_HAS_BTI cpucap is a strict
boot cpu feature which is detected and patched early on the boot cpu.
All uses guarded by CONFIG_ARM64_BTI_KERNEL happen after the boot CPU
has detected ARM64_HAS_BTI and patched boot alternatives, and hence can
safely use alternative_has_cap_*() or cpus_have_final_boot_cap().

Regardless of CONFIG_ARM64_BTI_KERNEL, all other uses of ARM64_HAS_BTI
happen after system capabilities have been finalized and alternatives
have been patched. Hence these can safely use alternative_has_cap_*) or
cpus_have_final_cap().

This patch splits system_supports_bti() into system_supports_bti() and
system_supports_bti_kernel(), with the former handling where the cpucap
affects userspace functionality, and ther latter handling where the
cpucap affects kernel functionality. The use of cpus_have_const_cap() is
replaced by cpus_have_final_cap() in cpus_have_const_cap, and
cpus_have_final_boot_cap() in system_supports_bti_kernel(). This will
avoid generating code to test the system_cpucaps bitmap and should be
better for all subsequent calls at runtime. The use of
cpus_have_final_cap() and cpus_have_final_boot_cap() will make it easier
to spot if code is chaanged such that these run before the ARM64_HAS_BTI
cpucap is guaranteed to have been finalized.

In system_supports_bti() we use cpus_have_const_cap() to check for
ARM64_HAS_BTI, but this is not necessary and alternative_has_cap_*() or
cpus_have_final_*cap() would be preferable.

For historical reasons, cpus_have_const_cap() is more complicated than
it needs to be. Before cpucaps are finalized, it will perform a bitmap
test of the system_cpucaps bitmap, and once cpucaps are finalized it
will use an alternative branch. This used to be necessary to handle some
race conditions in the window between cpucap detection and the
subsequent patching of alternatives and static branches, where different
branches could be out-of-sync with one another (or w.r.t. alternative
sequences). Now that we use alternative branches instead of static
branches, these are all patched atomically w.r.t. one another, and there
are only a handful of cases that need special care in the window between
cpucap detection and alternative patching.

Due to the above, it would be nice to remove cpus_have_const_cap(), and
migrate callers over to alternative_has_cap_*(), cpus_have_final_cap(),
or cpus_have_cap() depending on when their requirements. This will
remove redundant instructions and improve code generation, and will make
it easier to determine how each callsite will behave before, during, and
after alternative patching.

When CONFIG_ARM64_BTI_KERNEL=y, the ARM64_HAS_BTI cpucap is a strict
boot cpu feature which is detected and patched early on the boot cpu.
All uses guarded by CONFIG_ARM64_BTI_KERNEL happen after the boot CPU
has detected ARM64_HAS_BTI and patched boot alternatives, and hence can
safely use alternative_has_cap_*() or cpus_have_final_boot_cap().

Regardless of CONFIG_ARM64_BTI_KERNEL, all other uses of ARM64_HAS_BTI
happen after system capabilities have been finalized and alternatives
have been patched. Hence these can safely use alternative_has_cap_*) or
cpus_have_final_cap().

This patch splits system_supports_bti() into system_supports_bti() and
system_supports_bti_kernel(), with the former handling where the cpucap
affects userspace functionality, and ther latter handling where the
cpucap affects kernel functionality. The use of cpus_have_const_cap() is
replaced by cpus_have_final_cap() in cpus_have_const_cap, and
cpus_have_final_boot_cap() in system_supports_bti_kernel(). This will
avoid generating code to test the system_cpucaps bitmap and should be
better for all subsequent calls at runtime. The use of
cpus_have_final_cap() and cpus_have_final_boot_cap() will make it easier
to spot if code is chaanged such that these run before the ARM64_HAS_BTI
cpucap is guaranteed to have been finalized.

<title>efi/arm64: Move EFI runtime call setup/teardown helpers out of line</title>

Only the arch_efi_call_virt() macro that some architectures override
needs to be a macro, given that it is variadic and encapsulates calls
via function pointers that have different prototypes.

The associated setup and teardown code are not special in this regard,
and don't need to be instantiated at each call site. So turn them into

Only the arch_efi_call_virt() macro that some architectures override
needs to be a macro, given that it is variadic and encapsulates calls
via function pointers that have different prototypes.

The associated setup and teardown code are not special in this regard,
and don't need to be instantiated at each call site. So turn them into
ordinary C functions and move them out of line.
