This commit introduces a generic device tree binding for IOMMU devices.
Only a very minimal subset is described here, but it is enough to cover
the requirements of both the Exynos System MMU and Tegra SMMU as
discussed here:

The PCIe controller on Tegra124 has two root ports that can be used in a
x4/x1 or x2/x1 configuration and can run at PCIe 2.0 link speeds (up to
5 GT/s). The PHY programming has been moved into a separate controller,
so the driver now needs to request an external PHY referenced using the
device tree.

These power supply properties are no longer needed since the binding now

The current usage of regulators for the Tegra PCIe block is wrong. It
doesn't accurately reflect the actual supply inputs of the IP block and
therefore isn't as flexible as it should be. Rectify this by describing
all possible supply inputs in the device tree binding documentation and
deprecate the old supply properties.

The later Tegra SoC(>= T124) has more registers for
MC_SMMU_TRANSLATION_ENABLE_*. Now those info is provided as platfrom
data. If those varies a lot on SoCs in the future, we can consider
putting them into DT later.

Changes in v3:
- replace drm_dev_put() recommendation by explicit drm_dev_unregister()
followed by drm_dev_unref()
- use !E in DocBook to insert kernel-doc for all exported symbols
|
|
Describe how devices are registered using the drm_*_init() functions.
Adding this to docbook requires a largish set of changes to the comments
in drm_{pci,usb,platform}.c since they are doxygen-style rather than
proper kernel-doc and therefore mess with the docbook generation.
While at it, mark usage of drm_put_dev() as discouraged in favour of
calling drm_dev_unregister() and drm_dev_unref() directly.

The default for backlight devices is to be enabled immediately when
registering with the backlight core. This can be useful for setups that
use a simple framebuffer device and where the backlight cannot otherwise
be hooked up to the panel.
However, when dealing with more complex setups, such as those of recent
ARM SoCs, this can be problematic. Since the backlight is usually setup
separately from the display controller, the probe order is not usually
deterministic. That can lead to situations where the backlight will be
powered up and the panel will show an uninitialized framebuffer.
Furthermore, subsystems such as DRM have advanced functionality to set
the power mode of a panel. In order to allow such setups to power up the
panel at exactly the right moment, a way is needed to prevent the
backlight core from powering the backlight up automatically when it is
registered.
This commit introduces a new boot_off field in the platform data (and
also implements getting the same information from device tree). When set
the initial backlight power mode will be set to "off".

The "strictlimit" feature was introduced to enforce per-bdi dirty limits
for FUSE which sets bdi max_ratio to 1% by default:
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.mm/105809
However the feature can be useful for other relatively slow or untrusted
BDIs like USB flash drives and DVD+RW. The patch adds a knob to enable
the feature:
echo 1 > /sys/class/bdi/X:Y/strictlimit
Being enabled, the feature enforces bdi max_ratio limit even if global
(10%) dirty limit is not reached. Of course, the effect is not visible
until /sys/class/bdi/X:Y/max_ratio is decreased to some reasonable value.

force_empty has been introduced primarily to drop memory before it gets
reparented on the group removal. This alone doesn't sound fully justified
because reparented pages which are not in use can be reclaimed also later
when there is a memory pressure on the parent level.
Mark the knob CFTYPE_INSANE which tells the cgroup core that it shouldn't
create the knob with the experimental sane_behavior. Other users will get
informed about the deprecation and asked to tell us more because I do not
expect most users will use sane_behavior cgroups mode very soon.
Anyway I expect that most users will be simply cgroup remove handlers
which do that since ever without having any good reason for it.
If somebody really cares because reparented pages, which would be dropped
otherwise, push out more important ones then we should fix the reparenting
code and put pages to the tail.

remap_file_pages(2) was invented to be able efficiently map parts of huge
file into limited 32-bit virtual address space such as in database
workloads.
Nonlinear mappings are pain to support and it seems there's no legitimate
use-cases nowadays since 64-bit systems are widely available.
Let's drop it and get rid of all these special-cased code.
The patch replaces the syscall with emulation which creates new VMA on
each remap_file_pages(), unless they it can be merged with an adjacent
one.
I didn't find *any* real code that uses remap_file_pages(2) to test
emulation impact on. I've checked Debian code search and source of all
packages in ALT Linux. No real users: libc wrappers, mentions in strace,
gdb, valgrind and this kind of stuff.
There are few basic tests in LTP for the syscall. They work just fine
with emulation.
To test performance impact, I've written small test case which demonstrate
pretty much worst case scenario: map 4G shmfs file, write to begin of
every page pgoff of the page, remap pages in reverse order, read every
page.
The test creates 1 million of VMAs if emulation is in use, so I had to set
vm.max_map_count to 1100000 to avoid -ENOMEM.
Before: 23.3 ( +- 4.31% ) seconds
After: 43.9 ( +- 0.85% ) seconds
Slowdown: 1.88x
I believe we can live with that.
Test case:
#define _GNU_SOURCE
#include <assert.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <sys/mman.h>
#define MB (1024UL * 1024)
#define SIZE (4096 * MB)
int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
unsigned long *p;
long i, pass;
for (pass = 0; pass < 10; pass++) {
p = mmap(NULL, SIZE, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE,
MAP_SHARED | MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0);
if (p == MAP_FAILED) {
perror("mmap");
return -1;
}
for (i = 0; i < SIZE / 4096; i++)
p[i * 4096 / sizeof(*p)] = i;
for (i = 0; i < SIZE / 4096; i++) {
if (remap_file_pages(p + i * 4096 / sizeof(*p), 4096,
0, (SIZE - 4096 * (i + 1)) >> 12, 0)) {
perror("remap_file_pages");
return -1;
}
}
for (i = SIZE / 4096 - 1; i >= 0; i--)
assert(p[i * 4096 / sizeof(*p)] == SIZE / 4096 - i - 1);
munmap(p, SIZE);
}
return 0;
}

The remap_file_pages() system call is used to create a nonlinear mapping,
that is, a mapping in which the pages of the file are mapped into a
nonsequential order in memory. The advantage of using remap_file_pages()
over using repeated calls to mmap(2) is that the former approach does not
require the kernel to create additional VMA (Virtual Memory Area) data
structures.
Supporting of nonlinear mapping requires significant amount of non-trivial
code in kernel virtual memory subsystem including hot paths. Also to get
nonlinear mapping work kernel need a way to distinguish normal page table
entries from entries with file offset (pte_file). Kernel reserves flag in
PTE for this purpose. PTE flags are scarce resource especially on some
CPU architectures. It would be nice to free up the flag for other usage.
Fortunately, there are not many users of remap_file_pages() in the wild.
It's only known that one enterprise RDBMS implementation uses the syscall
on 32-bit systems to map files bigger than can linearly fit into 32-bit
virtual address space. This use-case is not critical anymore since 64-bit
systems are widely available.
The plan is to deprecate the syscall and replace it with an emulation.
The emulation will create new VMAs instead of nonlinear mappings. It's
going to work slower for rare users of remap_file_pages() but ABI is
preserved.
One side effect of emulation (apart from performance) is that user can hit
vm.max_map_count limit more easily due to additional VMAs. See comment
for DEFAULT_MAX_MAP_COUNT for more details on the limit.

Memory reclaim always uses swappiness of the reclaim target memcg (origin
of the memory pressure) or vm_swappiness for global memory reclaim. This
behavior was consistent (except for difference between global and hard
limit reclaim) because swappiness was enforced to be consistent within
each memcg hierarchy.
After "mm: memcontrol: remove hierarchy restrictions for swappiness and
oom_control" each memcg can have its own swappiness independent of
hierarchical parents, though, so the consistency guarantee is gone. This
can lead to an unexpected behavior. Say that a group is explicitly
configured to not swapout by memory.swappiness=0 but its memory gets
swapped out anyway when the memory pressure comes from its parent with a
It is also unexpected that the knob is meaningless without setting the
hard limit which would trigger the reclaim and enforce the swappiness.
There are setups where the hard limit is configured higher in the
hierarchy by an administrator and children groups are under control of
somebody else who is interested in the swapout behavior but not
necessarily about the memory limit.
From a semantic point of view swappiness is an attribute defining anon vs.
file proportional scanning of LRU which is memcg specific (unlike charges
which are propagated up the hierarchy) so it should be applied to the
particular memcg's LRU regardless where the memory pressure comes from.
This patch removes vmscan_swappiness() and stores the swappiness into the
scan_control structure. mem_cgroup_swappiness is then used to provide the
correct value before shrink_lruvec is called. The global vm_swappiness is
used for the root memcg.

A 'softlockup' is defined as a bug that causes the kernel to loop in
kernel mode for more than a predefined period to time, without giving
other tasks a chance to run.
Currently, upon detection of this condition by the per-cpu watchdog task,
debug information (including a stack trace) is sent to the system log.
On some occasions, we have observed that the "victim" rather than the
actual "culprit" (i.e. the owner/holder of the contended resource) is
reported to the user. Often this information has proven to be
insufficient to assist debugging efforts.
To avoid loss of useful debug information, for architectures which support
NMI, this patch makes it possible to improve soft lockup reporting. This
is accomplished by issuing an NMI to each cpu to obtain a stack trace.
If NMI is not supported we just revert back to the old method. A sysctl
and boot-time parameter is available to toggle this feature.
