Using restricted DMA pools (CONFIG_DMA_RESTRICTED_POOL=y) in conjunction

<title>swiotlb: do not set total_used to 0 in swiotlb_create_debugfs_files()</title>

Sometimes the readout of /sys/kernel/debug/swiotlb/io_tlb_used and
io_tlb_used_hiwater can be a huge number (e.g. 18446744073709551615),
which is actually a negative number if we use "%ld" to print the number.

When swiotlb_create_default_debugfs() is running from late_initcall,
mem-&gt;total_used may already be non-zero, because the storage driver
may have already started to perform I/O operations: if the storage
driver is built-in, its probe() callback is called before late_initcall.

swiotlb_create_debugfs_files() should not blindly set mem-&gt;total_used
and mem-&gt;used_hiwater to 0; actually it doesn't have to initialize the
fields at all, because the fields, as part of the global struct
io_tlb_default_mem, have been implicitly initialized to zero.

Also don't explicitly set mem-&gt;transient_nslabs to 0.

<title>swiotlb: fix swiotlb_bounce() to do partial sync's correctly</title>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.tavy.me/linux.git/commit/?id=e8068f2d756d57a5206fa3180ade365a8c12ed85'/>
<id>e8068f2d756d57a5206fa3180ade365a8c12ed85</id>
<content type='text'>
In current code, swiotlb_bounce() may do partial sync's correctly in
some circumstances, but may incorrectly fail in other circumstances.
The failure cases require both of these to be true:

1) swiotlb_align_offset() returns a non-zero "offset" value
2) the tlb_addr of the partial sync area points into the first
"offset" bytes of the _second_ or subsequent swiotlb slot allocated
for the mapping

Code added in commit 868c9ddc182b ("swiotlb: add overflow checks
to swiotlb_bounce") attempts to WARN on the invalid case where
tlb_addr points into the first "offset" bytes of the _first_
allocated slot. But there's no way for swiotlb_bounce() to distinguish
the first slot from the second and subsequent slots, so the WARN
can be triggered incorrectly when #2 above is true.

Related, current code calculates an adjustment to the orig_addr stored
in the swiotlb slot. The adjustment compensates for the difference
in the tlb_addr used for the partial sync vs. the tlb_addr for the full
mapping. The adjustment is stored in the local variable tlb_offset.
But when #1 and #2 above are true, it's valid for this adjustment to
be negative. In such case the arithmetic to adjust orig_addr produces
the wrong result due to tlb_offset being declared as unsigned.

Fix these problems by removing the over-constraining validations added
in 868c9ddc182b. Change the declaration of tlb_offset to be signed
instead of unsigned so the adjustment arithmetic works correctly.

Tested with a test-only hack to how swiotlb_tbl_map_single() calls
swiotlb_bounce(). Instead of calling swiotlb_bounce() just once
for the entire mapped area, do a loop with each iteration doing
only a 128 byte partial sync until the entire mapped area is
sync'ed. Then with swiotlb=force on the kernel boot line, run a
variety of raw disk writes followed by read and verification of
all bytes of the written data. The storage device has DMA
min_align_mask set, and the writes are done with a variety of
original buffer memory address alignments and overall buffer
sizes. For many of the combinations, current code triggers the
WARN statements, or the data verification fails. With the fixes,
no WARNs occur and all verifications pass.

<title>swiotlb: extend buffer pre-padding to alloc_align_mask if necessary</title>

<content type='text'>
Allow a buffer pre-padding of up to alloc_align_mask, even if it requires
allocating additional IO TLB slots.

If the allocation alignment is bigger than IO_TLB_SIZE and min_align_mask
covers any non-zero bits in the original address between IO_TLB_SIZE and
alloc_align_mask, these bits are not preserved in the swiotlb buffer
address.

To fix this case, increase the allocation size and use a larger offset
within the allocated buffer. As a result, extra padding slots may be
allocated before the mapping start address.

Leave orig_addr in these padding slots initialized to INVALID_PHYS_ADDR.
These slots do not correspond to any CPU buffer, so attempts to sync the
data should be ignored.

The padding slots should be automatically released when the buffer is
unmapped. However, swiotlb_tbl_unmap_single() takes only the address of the
DMA buffer slot, not the first padding slot. Save the number of padding
slots in struct io_tlb_slot and use it to adjust the slot index in
swiotlb_release_slots(), so all allocated slots are properly freed.

Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:

 - Sumanth Korikkar has taught s390 to allocate hotplug-time page frames
   from hotplugged memory rather than only from main memory. Series
   "implement "memmap on memory" feature on s390".

 - More folio conversions from Matthew Wilcox in the series

	"Convert memcontrol charge moving to use folios"
	"mm: convert mm counter to take a folio"

 - Chengming Zhou has optimized zswap's rbtree locking, providing
   significant reductions in system time and modest but measurable
   reductions in overall runtimes. The series is "mm/zswap: optimize the
   scalability of zswap rb-tree".

 - Chengming Zhou has also provided the series "mm/zswap: optimize zswap
   lru list" which provides measurable runtime benefits in some
   swap-intensive situations.

 - And Chengming Zhou further optimizes zswap in the series "mm/zswap:
   optimize for dynamic zswap_pools". Measured improvements are modest.

 - zswap cleanups and simplifications from Yosry Ahmed in the series
   "mm: zswap: simplify zswap_swapoff()".

 - In the series "Add DAX ABI for memmap_on_memory", Vishal Verma has
   contributed several DAX cleanups as well as adding a sysfs tunable to
   control the memmap_on_memory setting when the dax device is
   hotplugged as system memory.

 - Johannes Weiner has added the large series "mm: zswap: cleanups",
   which does that.

 - More DAMON work from SeongJae Park in the series

	"mm/damon: make DAMON debugfs interface deprecation unignorable"
	"selftests/damon: add more tests for core functionalities and corner cases"
	"Docs/mm/damon: misc readability improvements"
	"mm/damon: let DAMOS feeds and tame/auto-tune itself"

 - In the series "mm/mempolicy: weighted interleave mempolicy and sysfs
   extension" Rakie Kim has developed a new mempolicy interleaving
   policy wherein we allocate memory across nodes in a weighted fashion
   rather than uniformly. This is beneficial in heterogeneous memory
   environments appearing with CXL.

 - Christophe Leroy has contributed some cleanup and consolidation work
   against the ARM pagetable dumping code in the series "mm: ptdump:
   Refactor CONFIG_DEBUG_WX and check_wx_pages debugfs attribute".

 - Luis Chamberlain has added some additional xarray selftesting in the
   series "test_xarray: advanced API multi-index tests".

 - Muhammad Usama Anjum has reworked the selftest code to make its
   human-readable output conform to the TAP ("Test Anything Protocol")
   format. Amongst other things, this opens up the use of third-party
   tools to parse and process out selftesting results.

 - Ryan Roberts has added fork()-time PTE batching of THP ptes in the
   series "mm/memory: optimize fork() with PTE-mapped THP". Mainly
   targeted at arm64, this significantly speeds up fork() when the
   process has a large number of pte-mapped folios.

 - David Hildenbrand also gets in on the THP pte batching game in his
   series "mm/memory: optimize unmap/zap with PTE-mapped THP". It
   implements batching during munmap() and other pte teardown
   situations. The microbenchmark improvements are nice.

 - And in the series "Transparent Contiguous PTEs for User Mappings"
   Ryan Roberts further utilizes arm's pte's contiguous bit ("contpte
   mappings"). Kernel build times on arm64 improved nicely. Ryan's
   series "Address some contpte nits" provides some followup work.

 - In the series "mm/hugetlb: Restore the reservation" Breno Leitao has
   fixed an obscure hugetlb race which was causing unnecessary page
   faults. He has also added a reproducer under the selftest code.

 - In the series "selftests/mm: Output cleanups for the compaction
   test", Mark Brown did what the title claims.

 - Kinsey Ho has added the series "mm/mglru: code cleanup and
   refactoring".

 - Even more zswap material from Nhat Pham. The series "fix and extend
   zswap kselftests" does as claimed.

 - In the series "Introduce cpu_dcache_is_aliasing() to fix DAX
   regression" Mathieu Desnoyers has cleaned up and fixed rather a mess
   in our handling of DAX on archiecctures which have virtually aliasing
   data caches. The arm architecture is the main beneficiary.

 - Lokesh Gidra's series "per-vma locks in userfaultfd" provides
   dramatic improvements in worst-case mmap_lock hold times during
   certain userfaultfd operations.

 - Some page_owner enhancements and maintenance work from Oscar Salvador
   in his series

	"page_owner: print stacks and their outstanding allocations"
	"page_owner: Fixup and cleanup"

 - Uladzislau Rezki has contributed some vmalloc scalability
   improvements in his series "Mitigate a vmap lock contention". It

Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:

 - Sumanth Korikkar has taught s390 to allocate hotplug-time page frames
   from hotplugged memory rather than only from main memory. Series
   "implement "memmap on memory" feature on s390".

 - More folio conversions from Matthew Wilcox in the series

	"Convert memcontrol charge moving to use folios"
	"mm: convert mm counter to take a folio"

 - Chengming Zhou has optimized zswap's rbtree locking, providing
   significant reductions in system time and modest but measurable
   reductions in overall runtimes. The series is "mm/zswap: optimize the
   scalability of zswap rb-tree".

 - Chengming Zhou has also provided the series "mm/zswap: optimize zswap
   lru list" which provides measurable runtime benefits in some
   swap-intensive situations.

 - And Chengming Zhou further optimizes zswap in the series "mm/zswap:
   optimize for dynamic zswap_pools". Measured improvements are modest.

 - zswap cleanups and simplifications from Yosry Ahmed in the series
   "mm: zswap: simplify zswap_swapoff()".

 - In the series "Add DAX ABI for memmap_on_memory", Vishal Verma has
   contributed several DAX cleanups as well as adding a sysfs tunable to
   control the memmap_on_memory setting when the dax device is
   hotplugged as system memory.

 - Johannes Weiner has added the large series "mm: zswap: cleanups",
   which does that.

 - More DAMON work from SeongJae Park in the series

	"mm/damon: make DAMON debugfs interface deprecation unignorable"
	"selftests/damon: add more tests for core functionalities and corner cases"
	"Docs/mm/damon: misc readability improvements"
	"mm/damon: let DAMOS feeds and tame/auto-tune itself"

 - In the series "mm/mempolicy: weighted interleave mempolicy and sysfs
   extension" Rakie Kim has developed a new mempolicy interleaving
   policy wherein we allocate memory across nodes in a weighted fashion
   rather than uniformly. This is beneficial in heterogeneous memory
   environments appearing with CXL.

 - Christophe Leroy has contributed some cleanup and consolidation work
   against the ARM pagetable dumping code in the series "mm: ptdump:
   Refactor CONFIG_DEBUG_WX and check_wx_pages debugfs attribute".

 - Luis Chamberlain has added some additional xarray selftesting in the
   series "test_xarray: advanced API multi-index tests".

 - Muhammad Usama Anjum has reworked the selftest code to make its
   human-readable output conform to the TAP ("Test Anything Protocol")
   format. Amongst other things, this opens up the use of third-party
   tools to parse and process out selftesting results.

 - Ryan Roberts has added fork()-time PTE batching of THP ptes in the
   series "mm/memory: optimize fork() with PTE-mapped THP". Mainly
   targeted at arm64, this significantly speeds up fork() when the
   process has a large number of pte-mapped folios.

 - David Hildenbrand also gets in on the THP pte batching game in his
   series "mm/memory: optimize unmap/zap with PTE-mapped THP". It
   implements batching during munmap() and other pte teardown
   situations. The microbenchmark improvements are nice.

 - And in the series "Transparent Contiguous PTEs for User Mappings"
   Ryan Roberts further utilizes arm's pte's contiguous bit ("contpte
   mappings"). Kernel build times on arm64 improved nicely. Ryan's
   series "Address some contpte nits" provides some followup work.

 - In the series "mm/hugetlb: Restore the reservation" Breno Leitao has
   fixed an obscure hugetlb race which was causing unnecessary page
   faults. He has also added a reproducer under the selftest code.

 - In the series "selftests/mm: Output cleanups for the compaction
   test", Mark Brown did what the title claims.

 - Kinsey Ho has added the series "mm/mglru: code cleanup and
   refactoring".

 - Even more zswap material from Nhat Pham. The series "fix and extend
   zswap kselftests" does as claimed.

 - In the series "Introduce cpu_dcache_is_aliasing() to fix DAX
   regression" Mathieu Desnoyers has cleaned up and fixed rather a mess
   in our handling of DAX on archiecctures which have virtually aliasing
   data caches. The arm architecture is the main beneficiary.

 - Lokesh Gidra's series "per-vma locks in userfaultfd" provides
   dramatic improvements in worst-case mmap_lock hold times during
   certain userfaultfd operations.

 - Some page_owner enhancements and maintenance work from Oscar Salvador
   in his series

	"page_owner: print stacks and their outstanding allocations"
	"page_owner: Fixup and cleanup"

 - Uladzislau Rezki has contributed some vmalloc scalability
   improvements in his series "Mitigate a vmap lock contention". It
   realizes a 12x improvement for a certain microbenchmark.

 - Some kexec/crash cleanup work from Baoquan He in the series "Split
   crash out from kexec and clean up related config items".

 - Some zsmalloc maintenance work from Chengming Zhou in the series

	"mm/zsmalloc: fix and optimize objects/page migration"
	"mm/zsmalloc: some cleanup for get/set_zspage_mapping()"

<title>swiotlb: Reinstate page-alignment for mappings &gt;= PAGE_SIZE</title>

For swiotlb allocations &gt;= PAGE_SIZE, the slab search historically
adjusted the stride to avoid checking unaligned slots. This had the
side-effect of aligning large mapping requests to PAGE_SIZE, but that
was broken by 0eee5ae10256 ("swiotlb: fix slot alignment checks").

Since this alignment could be relied upon drivers, reinstate PAGE_SIZE
alignment for swiotlb mappings &gt;= PAGE_SIZE.

<title>swiotlb: Fix alignment checks when both allocation and DMA masks are present</title>

Nicolin reports that swiotlb buffer allocations fail for an NVME device
behind an IOMMU using 64KiB pages. This is because we end up with a
minimum allocation alignment of 64KiB (for the IOMMU to map the buffer
safely) but a minimum DMA alignment mask corresponding to a 4KiB NVME
page (i.e. preserving the 4KiB page offset from the original allocation).
If the original address is not 4KiB-aligned, the allocation will fail
because swiotlb_search_pool_area() erroneously compares these unmasked
bits with the 64KiB-aligned candidate allocation.

Tweak swiotlb_search_pool_area() so that the DMA alignment mask is
reduced based on the required alignment of the allocation.

core-api/dma-api-howto.rst states the following properties of
dma_alloc_coherent():

  | The CPU virtual address and the DMA address are both guaranteed to
  | be aligned to the smallest PAGE_SIZE order which is greater than or
  | equal to the requested size.

However, swiotlb_alloc() passes zero for the 'alloc_align_mask'
parameter of swiotlb_find_slots() and so this property is not upheld.
Instead, allocations larger than a page are aligned to PAGE_SIZE,

Calculate the mask corresponding to the page order suitable for holding
the allocation and pass that to swiotlb_find_slots().

When allocating pages from a restricted DMA pool in swiotlb_alloc(),
the buffer address is blindly converted to a 'struct page *' that is
returned to the caller. In the unlikely event of an allocation bug,
page-unaligned addresses are not detected and slots can silently be
double-allocated.

Add a simple check of the buffer alignment in swiotlb_alloc() to make
debugging a little easier if something has gone wonky.
