We've measured that we spend ~0.6% of sys cpu time in cpumask_next_and().
It's essentially a joined iteration in search for a non-zero bit, which is
currently implemented as a lookup join (find a nonzero bit on the lhs,
lookup the rhs to see if it's set there).
Implement a direct join (find a nonzero bit on the incrementally built
join). Also add generic bitmap benchmarks in the new `test_find_bit`
module for new function (see `find_next_and_bit` in [2] and [3] below).
For cpumask_next_and, direct benchmarking shows that it's 1.17x to 14x
faster with a geometric mean of 2.1 on 32 CPUs [1]. No impact on memory
usage. Note that on Arm, the new pure-C implementation still outperforms
the old one that uses a mix of C and asm (`find_next_bit`) [3].
[1] Approximate benchmark code:
```
unsigned long src1p[nr_cpumask_longs] = {pattern1};
unsigned long src2p[nr_cpumask_longs] = {pattern2};
for (/*a bunch of repetitions*/) {
for (int n = -1; n <= nr_cpu_ids; ++n) {
asm volatile("" : "+rm"(src1p)); // prevent any optimization
asm volatile("" : "+rm"(src2p));
unsigned long result = cpumask_next_and(n, src1p, src2p);
asm volatile("" : "+rm"(result));
}
}
```

Behaviour of bitmap_fill() differs from bitmap_zero() in a way how bits
behind bitmap are handed. bitmap_zero() clears entire bitmap by unsigned
long boundary, while bitmap_fill() mimics bitmap_set().
Here we change bitmap_fill() behaviour to be consistent with bitmap_zero()
and add a note to documentation.
The change might reveal some bugs in the code where unused bits are
handled differently and in such cases bitmap_set() has to be used.

with bitmap_{from,to}_arr32 over the kernel. Additionally to it:
* __check_eq_bitmap() now takes single nbits argument.
* __check_eq_u32_array is not used in new test but may be used in
future. So I don't remove it here, but annotate as __used.
Tested on arm64 and 32-bit BE mips.

This patchset replaces bitmap_{to,from}_u32array with more simple and
standard looking copy-like functions.
bitmap_from_u32array() takes 4 arguments (bitmap_to_u32array is similar):
- unsigned long *bitmap, which is destination;
- unsigned int nbits, the length of destination bitmap, in bits;
- const u32 *buf, the source; and
- unsigned int nwords, the length of source buffer in ints.
In description to the function it is detailed like:
* copy min(nbits, 32*nwords) bits from @buf to @bitmap, remaining
* bits between nword and nbits in @bitmap (if any) are cleared.
Having two size arguments looks unneeded and potentially dangerous.
It is unneeded because normally user of copy-like function should take
care of the size of destination and make it big enough to fit source
data.
And it is dangerous because function may hide possible error if user
doesn't provide big enough bitmap, and data becomes silently dropped.
That's why all copy-like functions have 1 argument for size of copying
data, and I don't see any reason to make bitmap_from_u32array()
different.
One exception that comes in mind is strncpy() which also provides size
of destination in arguments, but it's strongly argued by the possibility
of taking broken strings in source. This is not the case of
bitmap_{from,to}_u32array().
There is no many real users of bitmap_{from,to}_u32array(), and they all
very clearly provide size of destination matched with the size of
source, so additional functionality is not used in fact. Like this:
bitmap_from_u32array(to->link_modes.supported,
__ETHTOOL_LINK_MODE_MASK_NBITS,
link_usettings.link_modes.supported,
__ETHTOOL_LINK_MODE_MASK_NU32);
Where:
#define __ETHTOOL_LINK_MODE_MASK_NU32 \
DIV_ROUND_UP(__ETHTOOL_LINK_MODE_MASK_NBITS, 32)
In this patch, bitmap_copy_safe and bitmap_{from,to}_arr32 are introduced.
'Safe' in bitmap_copy_safe() stands for clearing unused bits in bitmap
beyond last bit till the end of last word. It is useful for hardening
API when bitmap is assumed to be exposed to userspace.
bitmap_{from,to}_arr32 functions are replacements for
bitmap_{from,to}_u32array. They don't take unneeded nwords argument, and
so simpler in implementation and understanding.
This patch suggests optimization for 32-bit systems - aliasing
bitmap_{from,to}_arr32 to bitmap_copy_safe.
Other possible optimization is aliasing 64-bit LE bitmap_{from,to}_arr32 to
more generic function(s). But I didn't end up with the function that would
be helpful by itself, and can be used to alias 64-bit LE
bitmap_{from,to}_arr32, like bitmap_copy_safe() does. So I preferred to
leave things as is.
The following patch switches kernel to new API and introduces test for it.

Detect frees of pointers into middle of mempool objects.
I did a one-off test, but it turned out to be very tricky, so I reverted
it. First, mempool does not call kasan_poison_kfree() unless allocation
function fails. I stubbed an allocation function to fail on second and
subsequent allocations. But then mempool stopped to call
kasan_poison_kfree() at all, because it does it only when allocation
function is mempool_kmalloc(). We could support this special failing
test allocation function in mempool, but it also can't live with kasan
tests, because these are in a module.

Patch series "kasan: detect invalid frees".
KASAN detects double-frees, but does not detect invalid-frees (when a
pointer into a middle of heap object is passed to free). We recently had
a very unpleasant case in crypto code which freed an inner object inside
of a heap allocation. This left unnoticed during free, but totally
corrupted heap and later lead to a bunch of random crashes all over kernel
code.
Detect invalid frees.
This patch (of 5):
Detect frees of pointers into middle of large heap objects.
I dropped const from kasan_kfree_large() because it starts propagating
through a bunch of functions in kasan_report.c, slab/slub nearest_obj(),
all of their local variables, fixup_red_left(), etc.

rhashtable_free_and_destroy can't be used, since it would call kfree for
each flow_offload object twice.

schedule removal of entries by setting on the dying bit, then there is
an explicitly invocation of the garbage collector to release resources.

One of the major improvement of SMCCC v1.1 is that it only clobbers
the first 4 registers, both on 32 and 64bit. This means that it
becomes very easy to provide an inline version of the SMC call
primitive, and avoid performing a function call to stash the
registers that would otherwise be clobbered by SMCCC v1.0.

Function identifiers are a 32bit, unsigned quantity. But we never
tell so to the compiler, resulting in the following:

We thus rely on the firmware narrowing it for us, which is not
always a reasonable expectation.

We're about to need kvm_psci_version in HYP too. So let's turn it
into a static inline, and pass the kvm structure as a second

PSCI 1.0 can be trivially implemented by providing the FEATURES
call on top of PSCI 0.2 and returning 1.0 as the PSCI version.
We happily ignore everything else, as they are either optional or
are clarifications that do not require any additional change.
PSCI 1.0 is now the default until we decide to add a userspace
selection API.

About 20% of the IDR users in the kernel want the allocated IDs to start
at 1. The implementation currently searches all the way down the left
hand side of the tree, finds no free ID other than ID 0, walks all the
way back up, and then all the way down again. This patch 'rebases' the
ID so we fill the entire radix tree, rather than leave a gap at 0.
Chris Wilson says: "I did the quick hack of allocating index 0 of the
idr and that eradicated idr_get_free() from being at the top of the
profiles for the many-object stress tests. This improvement will be
much appreciated."

It has no more users, so remove it. Move idr_alloc() back into idr.c,
move the guts of idr_alloc_cmn() into idr_alloc_u32(), remove the
wrappers around idr_get_free_cmn() and rename it to idr_get_free().
While there is now no interface to allocate IDs larger than a u32,
the IDR internals remain ready to handle a larger ID should a need arise.
These changes make it possible to provide the guarantee that, if the
nextid pointer points into the object, the object's ID will be initialised
before a concurrent lookup can find the object.

All current users of idr_alloc_ext() actually want to allocate a u32
and idr_alloc_u32() fits their needs better.
Like idr_get_next(), it uses a 'nextid' argument which serves as both
a pointer to the start ID and the assigned ID (instead of a separate
minimum and pointer-to-assigned-ID argument). It uses a 'max' argument
rather than 'end' because the semantics that idr_alloc has for 'end'
don't work well for unsigned types.
Since idr_alloc_u32() returns an errno instead of the allocated ID, mark
it as __must_check to help callers use it correctly. Include copious
kernel-doc. Chris Mi <chrism@mellanox.com> has promised to contribute
test-cases for idr_alloc_u32.

moves the erspan 'version' in front of the 'struct erspan_md2' for

extraction code because the erspan_md2 then has a 4-byte offset
to between the erspan_metadata and erspan_base_hdr. This patch

The selftests test_maps program was leaving dangling BPF sockmap
programs around because not all psock elements were removed from
the map. The elements in turn hold a reference on the BPF program
they are attached to causing BPF programs to stay open even after
test_maps has completed.
The original intent was that sk_state_change() would be called
when TCP socks went through TCP_CLOSE state. However, because
socks may be in SOCK_DEAD state or the sock may be a listening
socket the event is not always triggered.
To resolve this use the ULP infrastructure and register our own
proto close() handler. This fixes the above case.

Create a UID field and enum that can be used to assign ULPs to
sockets. This saves a set of string comparisons if the ULP id
is known.
For sockmap, which is added in the next patches, a ULP is used to
hook into TCP sockets close state. In this case the ULP being added
is done at map insert time and the ULP is known and done on the kernel
side. In this case the named lookup is not needed. Because we don't
want to expose psock internals to user space socket options a user
visible flag is also added. For TLS this is set for BPF it will be
cleared.
Alos remove pr_notice, user gets an error code back and should check
that rather than rely on logs.

Moving the qrwlock struct definition into a header file introduced
a subtle bug on all little-endian machines, where some files in some
configurations would see the fields in an incorrect order. This was
found by building with an LTO enabled compiler that warns every time we
try to link together files with incompatible data structures.
A second patch changes linux/kconfig.h to always define the symbols,
but this seems to be the root cause of most of the issues, so I'd suggest
we do both.
On a current linux-next kernel, I verified that this header is
responsible for all type mismatches as a result from the endianess
confusion.

The select_idle_sibling() (SIS) rewrite in commit:
10e2f1acd010 ("sched/core: Rewrite and improve select_idle_siblings()")
... replaced a domain iteration with a search that broadly speaking
does a wrapped walk of the scheduler domain sharing a last-level-cache.
While this had a number of improvements, one consequence is that two tasks
that share a waker/wakee relationship push each other around a socket. Even
though two tasks may be active, all cores are evenly used. This is great from
a search perspective and spreads a load across individual cores, but it has
adverse consequences for cpufreq. As each CPU has relatively low utilisation,
cpufreq may decide the utilisation is too low to used a higher P-state and
overall computation throughput suffers.
While individual cpufreq and cpuidle drivers may compensate by artifically
boosting P-state (at c0) or avoiding lower C-states (during idle), it does
not help if hardware-based cpufreq (e.g. HWP) is used.
This patch tracks a recently used CPU based on what CPU a task was running
on when it last was a waker a CPU it was recently using when a task is a
wakee. During SIS, the recently used CPU is used as a target if it's still
allowed by the task and is idle.
The benefit may be non-obvious so consider an example of two tasks
communicating back and forth. Task A may be an application doing IO where
task B is a kworker or kthread like journald. Task A may issue IO, wake
B and B wakes up A on completion. With the existing scheme this may look
like the following (potentially different IDs if SMT is in use but similar
principal applies).
A (cpu 0) wake B (wakes on cpu 1)
B (cpu 1) wake A (wakes on cpu 2)
A (cpu 2) wake B (wakes on cpu 3)
etc.
A careful reader may wonder why CPU 0 was not idle when B wakes A the
first time and it's simply due to the fact that A can be rescheduled to
another CPU and the pattern is that prev == target when B tries to wakeup A
and the information about CPU 0 has been lost.
With this patch, the pattern is more likely to be:
A (cpu 0) wake B (wakes on cpu 1)
B (cpu 1) wake A (wakes on cpu 0)
A (cpu 0) wake B (wakes on cpu 1)
etc
i.e. two communicating casts are more likely to use just two cores instead
of all available cores sharing a LLC.
The most dramatic speedup was noticed on dbench using the XFS filesystem on
UMA as clients interact heavily with workqueues in that configuration. Note
that a similar speedup is not observed on ext4 as the wakeup pattern
is different:
4.15.0-rc9 4.15.0-rc9
waprev-v1 biasancestor-v1
Hmean 1 287.54 ( 0.00%) 817.01 ( 184.14%)
Hmean 2 1268.12 ( 0.00%) 1781.24 ( 40.46%)
Hmean 4 1739.68 ( 0.00%) 1594.47 ( -8.35%)
Hmean 8 2464.12 ( 0.00%) 2479.56 ( 0.63%)
Hmean 64 1455.57 ( 0.00%) 1434.68 ( -1.44%)
The results can be less dramatic on NUMA where automatic balancing interferes
with the test. It's also known that network benchmarks running on localhost
also benefit quite a bit from this patch (roughly 10% on netperf RR for UDP
and TCP depending on the machine). Hackbench also seens small improvements
(6-11% depending on machine and thread count). The facebook schbench was also
tested but in most cases showed little or no different to wakeup latencies.

Pull overlayfs updates from Miklos Szeredi:
"This work from Amir adds NFS export capability to overlayfs. NFS
exporting an overlay filesystem is a challange because we want to keep
track of any copy-up of a file or directory between encoding the file
handle and decoding it.
This is achieved by indexing copied up objects by lower layer file
handle. The index is already used for hard links, this patchset
extends the use to NFS file handle decoding"

Provide core serializing membarrier command to support memory reclaim
by JIT.
Each architecture needs to explicitly opt into that support by
documenting in their architecture code how they provide the core
serializing instructions required when returning from the membarrier
IPI, and after the scheduler has updated the curr->mm pointer (before
going back to user-space). They should then select
ARCH_HAS_MEMBARRIER_SYNC_CORE to enable support for that command on
their architecture.
Architectures selecting this feature need to either document that
they issue core serializing instructions when returning to user-space,
or implement their architecture-specific sync_core_before_usermode().
