The qspinlock code supports up to 4 levels of slowpath nesting using
four per-CPU mcs_spinlock structures. For 64-bit architectures, they
fit nicely in one 64-byte cacheline.
For para-virtualized (PV) qspinlocks it needs to store more information
in the per-CPU node structure than there is space for. It uses a trick
to use a second cacheline to hold the extra information that it needs.
So PV qspinlock needs to access two extra cachelines for its information
whereas the native qspinlock code only needs one extra cacheline.
Freshly added counter profiling of the qspinlock code, however, revealed
that it was very rare to use more than two levels of slowpath nesting.
So it doesn't make sense to penalize PV qspinlock code in order to have
four mcs_spinlock structures in the same cacheline to optimize for a case
in the native qspinlock code that rarely happens.
Extend the per-CPU node structure to have two more long words when PV
qspinlock locks are configured to hold the extra data that it needs.
As a result, the PV qspinlock code will enjoy the same benefit of using
just one extra cacheline like the native counterpart, for most cases.

Queued spinlock supports up to 4 levels of lock slowpath nesting -
user context, soft IRQ, hard IRQ and NMI. However, we are not sure how
often the nesting happens.
So add 3 more per-CPU stat counters to track the number of instances where
nesting index goes to 1, 2 and 3 respectively.
On a dual-socket 64-core 128-thread Zen server, the following were the
new stat counter values under different circumstances:
State slowpath index1 index2 index3
----- -------- ------ ------ -------
After bootup 1,012,150 82 0 0
After parallel build + perf-top 125,195,009 82 0 0
So the chance of having more than 2 levels of nesting is extremely low.

On x86 we cannot do fetch_or() with a single instruction and thus end up
using a cmpxchg loop, this reduces determinism. Replace the fetch_or()
with a composite operation: tas-pending + load.
Using two instructions of course opens a window we previously did not
have. Consider the scenario:
CPU0 CPU1 CPU2
1) lock
trylock -> (0,0,1)
2) lock
trylock /* fail */
3) unlock -> (0,0,0)
4) lock
trylock -> (0,0,1)
5) tas-pending -> (0,1,1)
load-val <- (0,1,0) from 3
6) clear-pending-set-locked -> (0,0,1)
FAIL: _2_ owners
where 5) is our new composite operation. When we consider each part of
the qspinlock state as a separate variable (as we can when
_Q_PENDING_BITS == 8) then the above is entirely possible, because
tas-pending will only RmW the pending byte, so the later load is able
to observe prior tail and lock state (but not earlier than its own
trylock, which operates on the whole word, due to coherence).
To avoid this we need 2 things:
- the load must come after the tas-pending (obviously, otherwise it
can trivially observe prior state).
- the tas-pending must be a full word RmW instruction, it cannot be an XCHGB for
example, such that we cannot observe other state prior to setting
pending.
On x86 we can realize this by using "LOCK BTS m32, r32" for
tas-pending followed by a regular load.
Note that observing later state is not a problem:
- if we fail to observe a later unlock, we'll simply spin-wait for
that store to become visible.
- if we observe a later xchg_tail(), there is no difference from that
xchg_tail() having taken place before the tas-pending.

Currently the GEN_*_RMWcc() macros include a return statement, which
pretty much mandates we directly wrap them in a (inline) function.
Macros with return statements are tricky and, as per the above, limit
use, so remove the return statement and make them
statement-expressions. This allows them to be used more widely.
Also, shuffle the arguments a bit. Place the @cc argument as 3rd, this
makes it consistent between UNARY and BINARY, but more importantly, it
makes the @arg0 argument last.
Since the @arg0 argument is now last, we can do CPP trickery and make
it an optional argument, simplifying the users; 17 out of 18
occurences do not need this argument.
Finally, change to asm symbolic names, instead of the numeric ordering
of operands, which allows us to get rid of __BINARY_RMWcc_ARG and get
cleaner code overall.

A sizable portion of the CPU cycles spent on the __lock_acquire() is used
up by the atomic increment of the class->ops stat counter. By taking it out
from the lock_class structure and changing it to a per-cpu per-lock-class
counter, we can reduce the amount of cacheline contention on the class
structure when multiple CPUs are trying to acquire locks of the same
class simultaneously.
To limit the increase in memory consumption because of the percpu nature
of that counter, it is now put back under the CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCKDEP
config option. So the memory consumption increase will only occur if
CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCKDEP is defined. The lock_class structure, however,
is reduced in size by 16 bytes on 64-bit archs after ops removal and
a minor restructuring of the fields.
This patch also fixes a bug in the increment code as the counter is of
the 'unsigned long' type, but atomic_inc() was used to increment it.

Using macros in inline assembly allows us to work around bugs
in GCC's inlining decisions.
Compile macros.S and use it to assemble all C files.
Currently only x86 will use it.
Background:
The inlining pass of GCC doesn't include an assembler, so it's not aware
of basic properties of the generated code, such as its size in bytes,
or that there are such things as discontiuous blocks of code and data
due to the newfangled linker feature called 'sections' ...
Instead GCC uses a lazy and fragile heuristic: it does a linear count of
certain syntactic and whitespace elements in inlined assembly block source
code, such as a count of new-lines and semicolons (!), as a poor substitute
for "code size and complexity".
Unsurprisingly this heuristic falls over and breaks its neck whith certain
common types of kernel code that use inline assembly, such as the frequent
practice of putting useful information into alternative sections.
As a result of this fresh, 20+ years old GCC bug, GCC's inlining decisions
are effectively disabled for inlined functions that make use of such asm()
blocks, because GCC thinks those sections of code are "large" - when in
reality they are often result in just a very low number of machine
instructions.
This absolute lack of inlining provess when GCC comes across such asm()
blocks both increases generated kernel code size and causes performance
overhead, which is particularly noticeable on paravirt kernels, which make
frequent use of these inlining facilities in attempt to stay out of the
way when running on baremetal hardware.
Instead of fixing the compiler we use a workaround: we set an assembly macro
and call it from the inlined assembly block. As a result GCC considers the
inline assembly block as a single instruction. (Which it often isn't but I digress.)
This uglifies and bloats the source code - for example just the refcount
related changes have this impact:
Makefile | 9 +++++++--
arch/x86/Makefile | 7 +++++++
arch/x86/kernel/macros.S | 7 +++++++
scripts/Kbuild.include | 4 +++-
scripts/mod/Makefile | 2 ++
5 files changed, 26 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-)
Yay readability and maintainability, it's not like assembly code is hard to read
and maintain ...
We also hope that GCC will eventually get fixed, but we are not holding
our breath for that. Yet we are optimistic, it might still happen, any decade now.

The static __lock_acquire() function has only two callers:
1) lock_acquire()
2) reacquire_held_locks()
In lock_acquire(), raw_local_irq_save() is called beforehand. So
IRQs must have been disabled. So the check:
DEBUG_LOCKS_WARN_ON(!irqs_disabled())
is kind of redundant in this case. So move the above check
to reacquire_held_locks() to eliminate redundant code in the
lock_acquire() path.

More than one kernel developer has expressed the opinion that the LKMM
should enforce ordering of writes by locking. In other words, given
the following code:
WRITE_ONCE(x, 1);
spin_unlock(&s):
spin_lock(&s);
WRITE_ONCE(y, 1);
the stores to x and y should be propagated in order to all other CPUs,
even though those other CPUs might not access the lock s. In terms of
the memory model, this means expanding the cumul-fence relation.
Locks should also provide read-read (and read-write) ordering in a
similar way. Given:
READ_ONCE(x);
spin_unlock(&s);
spin_lock(&s);
READ_ONCE(y); // or WRITE_ONCE(y, 1);
the load of x should be executed before the load of (or store to) y.
The LKMM already provides this ordering, but it provides it even in
the case where the two accesses are separated by a release/acquire
pair of fences rather than unlock/lock. This would prevent
architectures from using weakly ordered implementations of release and
acquire, which seems like an unnecessary restriction. The patch
therefore removes the ordering requirement from the LKMM for that
case.
There are several arguments both for and against this change. Let us
refer to these enhanced ordering properties by saying that the LKMM
would require locks to be RCtso (a bit of a misnomer, but analogous to
RCpc and RCsc) and it would require ordinary acquire/release only to
be RCpc. (Note: In the following, the phrase "all supported
architectures" is meant not to include RISC-V. Although RISC-V is
indeed supported by the kernel, the implementation is still somewhat
in a state of flux and therefore statements about it would be
premature.)
Pros:
The kernel already provides RCtso ordering for locks on all
supported architectures, even though this is not stated
explicitly anywhere. Therefore the LKMM should formalize it.
In theory, guaranteeing RCtso ordering would reduce the need
for additional barrier-like constructs meant to increase the
ordering strength of locks.
Will Deacon and Peter Zijlstra are strongly in favor of
formalizing the RCtso requirement. Linus Torvalds and Will
would like to go even further, requiring locks to have RCsc
behavior (ordering preceding writes against later reads), but
they recognize that this would incur a noticeable performance
degradation on the POWER architecture. Linus also points out
that people have made the mistake, in the past, of assuming
that locking has stronger ordering properties than is
currently guaranteed, and this change would reduce the
likelihood of such mistakes.
Not requiring ordinary acquire/release to be any stronger than
RCpc may prove advantageous for future architectures, allowing
them to implement smp_load_acquire() and smp_store_release()
with more efficient machine instructions than would be
possible if the operations had to be RCtso. Will and Linus
approve this rationale, hypothetical though it is at the
moment (it may end up affecting the RISC-V implementation).
The same argument may or may not apply to RMW-acquire/release;
see also the second Con entry below.
Linus feels that locks should be easy for people to use
without worrying about memory consistency issues, since they
are so pervasive in the kernel, whereas acquire/release is
much more of an "experts only" tool. Requiring locks to be
RCtso is a step in this direction.
Cons:
Andrea Parri and Luc Maranget think that locks should have the
same ordering properties as ordinary acquire/release (indeed,
Luc points out that the names "acquire" and "release" derive
from the usage of locks). Andrea points out that having
different ordering properties for different forms of acquires
and releases is not only unnecessary, it would also be
confusing and unmaintainable.
Locks are constructed from lower-level primitives, typically
RMW-acquire (for locking) and ordinary release (for unlock).
It is illogical to require stronger ordering properties from
the high-level operations than from the low-level operations
they comprise. Thus, this change would make
while (cmpxchg_acquire(&s, 0, 1) != 0)
cpu_relax();
an incorrect implementation of spin_lock(&s) as far as the
LKMM is concerned. In theory this weakness can be ameliorated
by changing the LKMM even further, requiring
RMW-acquire/release also to be RCtso (which it already is on
all supported architectures).
As far as I know, nobody has singled out any examples of code
in the kernel that actually relies on locks being RCtso.
(People mumble about RCU and the scheduler, but nobody has
pointed to any actual code. If there are any real cases,
their number is likely quite small.) If RCtso ordering is not
needed, why require it?
A handful of locking constructs (qspinlocks, qrwlocks, and
mcs_spinlocks) are built on top of smp_cond_load_acquire()
instead of an RMW-acquire instruction. It currently provides
only the ordinary acquire semantics, not the stronger ordering
this patch would require of locks. In theory this could be
ameliorated by requiring smp_cond_load_acquire() in
combination with ordinary release also to be RCtso (which is
currently true on all supported architectures).
On future weakly ordered architectures, people may be able to
implement locks in a non-RCtso fashion with significant
performance improvement. Meeting the RCtso requirement would
necessarily add run-time overhead.
Overall, the technical aspects of these arguments seem relatively
minor, and it appears mostly to boil down to a matter of opinion.
Since the opinions of senior kernel maintainers such as Linus,
Peter, and Will carry more weight than those of Luc and Andrea, this
patch changes the model in accordance with the maintainers' wishes.

Both spin locks and write locks currently do:
f0 0f b1 17 lock cmpxchg %edx,(%rdi)
85 c0 test %eax,%eax
75 05 jne [slowpath]
This 'test' insn is superfluous; the cmpxchg insn sets the Z flag
appropriately. Peter pointed out that using atomic_try_cmpxchg_acquire()
will let the compiler know this is true. Comparing before/after
disassemblies show the only effect is to remove this insn.
Take this opportunity to make the spin & write lock code resemble each
other more closely and have similar likely() hints.

Commit 1948367768 ("jump_label: Annotate entries that operate on
__init code earlier") refactored the code that manages runtime
patching of jump labels in modules that are tied to static keys
defined in other modules or in the core kernel.
In the latter case, we may iterate over the static_key_mod linked
list until we hit the entry for the core kernel, whose 'mod' field
will be NULL, and attempt to dereference it to get at its 'state'
member.
So let's add a non-NULL check: this forces the 'init' argument of
__jump_label_update() to false for static keys that are defined in
the core kernel, which is appropriate given that __init annotated
jump_label entries in the core kernel should no longer be active
at this point (i.e., when loading modules).

"ARM: SoC fixes
A handful of fixes that have been coming in the last couple of weeks:
- Freescale fixes for on-chip accellerators
- A DT fix for stm32 to avoid fallback to non-DMA SPI mode
- Fixes for badly specified interrupts on BCM63xx SoCs
- Allwinner A64 HDMI was incorrectly specified as fully compatble with R40
- Drive strength fix for SAMA5D2 NAND pins on one board"

Not all execution modes are valid for a guest, and some of them
depend on what the HW actually supports. Let's verify that what
userspace provides is compatible with both the VM settings and
the HW capabilities.

We currently allow userspace to access the core register file
in about any possible way, including straddling multiple
registers and doing unaligned accesses.
This is not the expected use of the ABI, and nobody is actually
using it that way. Let's tighten it by explicitly checking
the size and alignment for each field of the register file.

As reported by nixiaoming, with some minor clarifications:
1) memory leak in ramoops_register_dummy():
dummy_data = kzalloc(sizeof(*dummy_data), GFP_KERNEL);
but no kfree() if platform_device_register_data() fails.
2) memory leak in ramoops_init():
Missing platform_device_unregister(dummy) and kfree(dummy_data)
if platform_driver_register(&ramoops_driver) fails.
I've clarified the purpose of ramoops_register_dummy(), and added a
common cleanup routine for all three failure paths to call.

"Block fixes for 4.19-rc6
A set of fixes that should go into this release. This pull request
contains:
- A fix (hopefully) for the persistent grants for xen-blkfront. A
previous fix from this series wasn't complete, hence reverted, and
this one should hopefully be it. (Boris Ostrovsky)
- Fix for an elevator drain warning with SMR devices, which is
triggered when you switch schedulers (Damien)
- bcache deadlock fix (Guoju Fang)
- Fix for the block unplug tracepoint, which has had the
timer/explicit flag reverted since 4.11 (Ilya)
- Fix a regression in this series where the blk-mq timeout hook is
invoked with the RCU read lock held, hence preventing it from
blocking (Keith)
- NVMe pull from Christoph, with a single multipath fix (Susobhan Dey)"

blk-mq: I/O and timer unplugs are inverted in blktrace
bcache: add separate workqueue for journal_write to avoid deadlock

block: fix deadline elevator drain for zoned block devices
blk-mq: Allow blocking queue tag iter callbacks
