cxl: Fix build failure due to -Wunused-variable behaviour change

2015-09-15T09:33:51+00:00

A recent change in gcc caused this build failure:

/var/lib/jenkins/workspace/gcc_kernel_build/linux/drivers/misc/cxl/cxl.h:72:27:
error: ‘CXL_PSL_DLCNTL’ defined but not used [-Werror=unused-const-variable]
 static const cxl_p1_reg_t CXL_PSL_DLCNTL  = {0x0060};

Because of this gcc commit:

Commit 1bca8cbd0c68366f07277f98ce6963e10c2aa617 by mark
PR28901 -Wunused-variable ignores unused const initialised variables in C
12 years ago it was decided that -Wunused-variable shouldn't warn about
static const variables because some code used const static char rcsid[]
strings which were never used but wanted in the code anyway. But as the
bug points out this hides some real bugs. These days the usage of
rcsids is not very popular anymore. So this patch changes the default
to warn about unused static const variables in C with
-Wunused-variable. And it adds a new option -Wno-unused-const-variable
to turn this warning off. For C++ this new warning is off by default,
since const variables can be used as #defines in C++. New testcases for
the new defaults in C and C++ are included testing the new warning and
suppressing it with an unused attribute or using
-Wno-unused-const-variable. gcc/ChangeLog

The cxl driver uses static consts in place of #defines in some cases
for type safety, so this change causes the driver to fail to build on
new copilers as these constants are not all used in every file that
imports the header. Suppress the warning for this driver to return to
the old behaviour of -Wunused-variable.

cxl: Fix unbalanced pci_dev_get in cxl_probe

2015-09-15T09:33:38+00:00

Currently the first thing we do in cxl_probe is to grab a reference
on the pci device. Later on, we call device_register on our adapter.
In our remove path, we call device_unregister, but we never call
pci_dev_put. We therefore leak the device every time we do a
reflash.

device_register/unregister is sufficient to hold the reference.
Therefore, drop the call to pci_dev_get.

Here's why this is safe.
The proposed cxl_probe(pdev) calls cxl_adapter_init:
    a) init calls cxl_adapter_alloc, which creates a struct cxl,
       conventionally called adapter. This struct contains a
       device entry, adapter->dev.

    b) init calls cxl_configure_adapter, where we set
       adapter->dev.parent = &dev->dev (here dev is the pci dev)

So at this point, the cxl adapter's device's parent is the PCI
device that I want to be refcounted properly.

    c) init calls cxl_register_adapter
       *) cxl_register_adapter calls device_register(&adapter->dev)

So now we're in device_register, where dev is the adapter device, and
we want to know if the PCI device is safe after we return.

device_register(&adapter->dev) calls device_initialize() and then
device_add().

device_add() does a get_device(). device_add() also explicitly grabs
the device's parent, and calls get_device() on it:

         parent = get_device(dev->parent);

So therefore, device_register() takes a lock on the parent PCI dev,
which is what pci_dev_get() was guarding. pci_dev_get() can therefore
be safely removed.

Watchdog: Fix parent of watchdog_devices

2015-09-09T19:39:22+00:00

/sys/class/watchdog/watchdogn/device/modalias can help to identify the
driver/module for a given watchdog node. However, many wdt devices do not
set their parent and so, we do not see an entry for device in sysfs for
such devices.

This patch fixes parent of watchdog_device so that
/sys/class/watchdog/watchdogn/device is populated.

Exceptions: booke, diag288, octeon, softdog and w83627hf -- They do not
have any parent. Not sure, how we can identify driver for these devices.

mm: rename alloc_pages_exact_node() to __alloc_pages_node()

2015-09-08T22:35:28+00:00

alloc_pages_exact_node() was introduced in commit 6484eb3e2a81 ("page
allocator: do not check NUMA node ID when the caller knows the node is
valid") as an optimized variant of alloc_pages_node(), that doesn't
fallback to current node for nid == NUMA_NO_NODE.  Unfortunately the
name of the function can easily suggest that the allocation is
restricted to the given node and fails otherwise.  In truth, the node is
only preferred, unless __GFP_THISNODE is passed among the gfp flags.

The misleading name has lead to mistakes in the past, see for example
commits 5265047ac301 ("mm, thp: really limit transparent hugepage
allocation to local node") and b360edb43f8e ("mm, mempolicy:
migrate_to_node should only migrate to node").

Another issue with the name is that there's a family of
alloc_pages_exact*() functions where 'exact' means exact size (instead
of page order), which leads to more confusion.

To prevent further mistakes, this patch effectively renames
alloc_pages_exact_node() to __alloc_pages_node() to better convey that
it's an optimized variant of alloc_pages_node() not intended for general
usage.  Both functions get described in comments.

It has been also considered to really provide a convenience function for
allocations restricted to a node, but the major opinion seems to be that
__GFP_THISNODE already provides that functionality and we shouldn't
duplicate the API needlessly.  The number of users would be small
anyway.

Existing callers of alloc_pages_exact_node() are simply converted to
call __alloc_pages_node(), with the exception of sba_alloc_coherent()
which open-codes the check for NUMA_NO_NODE, so it is converted to use
alloc_pages_node() instead.  This means it no longer performs some
VM_BUG_ON checks, and since the current check for nid in
alloc_pages_node() uses a 'nid < 0' comparison (which includes
NUMA_NO_NODE), it may hide wrong values which would be previously
exposed.

Both differences will be rectified by the next patch.

To sum up, this patch makes no functional changes, except temporarily
hiding potentially buggy callers.  Restricting the checks in
alloc_pages_node() is left for the next patch which can in turn expose
more existing buggy callers.

cxl: abort cxl_pci_enable_device_hook() if PCI channel is offline

2015-09-07T10:14:24+00:00

cxl_pci_enable_device_hook() is called when attempting to enable an AFU
sitting on a vPHB. At present, the state of the underlying CXL card's PCI
channel is only checked when it calls cxl_afu_check_and_enable() at the
very end, after it has already set DMA options and initialised a default
context.

Check the CXL card's link status before setting DMA options or initialising
a default context. If the link is down, print a warning and return
immediately.
