Alexandre Ghiti <[email protected]> says:
In RISC-V, after a new mapping is established, a sfence.vma needs to be
emitted for different reasons:
- if the uarch caches invalid entries, we need to invalidate it otherwise
we would trap on this invalid entry,
- if the uarch does not cache invalid entries, a reordered access could fail
to see the new mapping and then trap (sfence.vma acts as a fence).
We can actually avoid emitting those (mostly) useless and costly sfence.vma
by handling the traps instead:
- for new kernel mappings: only vmalloc mappings need to be taken care of,
other new mapping are rare and already emit the required sfence.vma if
needed.
That must be achieved very early in the exception path as explained in
patch 3, and this also fixes our fragile way of dealing with vmalloc faults.
- for new user mappings: Svvptc makes update_mmu_cache() a no-op but we can
take some gratuitous page faults (which are very unlikely though).
Patch 1 and 2 introduce Svvptc extension probing.
On our uarch that does not cache invalid entries and a 6.5 kernel, the
gains are measurable:
* Kernel boot: 6%
* ltp - mmapstress01: 8%
* lmbench - lat_pagefault: 20%
* lmbench - lat_mmap: 5%
Here are the corresponding numbers of sfence.vma emitted:
* Ubuntu boot to login:
Before: ~630k sfence.vma
After: ~200k sfence.vma
* ltp - mmapstress01
Before: ~45k
After: ~6.3k
* lmbench - lat_pagefault
Before: ~665k
After: 832 (!)
* lmbench - lat_mmap
Before: ~546k
After: 718 (!)
Thanks to Ved and Matt Evans for triggering the discussion that led to
this patchset!

Svvptc
The preventive sfence.vma were emitted because new mappings must be made
visible to the page table walker but Svvptc guarantees that it will
happen within a bounded timeframe, so no need to sfence.vma for the uarchs
that implement this extension, we will then take gratuitous (but very
unlikely) page faults, similarly to x86 and arm64.
This allows to drastically reduce the number of sfence.vma emitted:
* Ubuntu boot to login:
Before: ~630k sfence.vma
After: ~200k sfence.vma
* ltp - mmapstress01
Before: ~45k
After: ~6.3k
* lmbench - lat_pagefault
Before: ~665k
After: 832 (!)
* lmbench - lat_mmap

In 6.5, we removed the vmalloc fault path because that can't work (see
[1] [2]). Then in order to make sure that new page table entries were
seen by the page table walker, we had to preventively emit a sfence.vma
on all harts [3] but this solution is very costly since it relies on IPI.
And even there, we could end up in a loop of vmalloc faults if a vmalloc
allocation is done in the IPI path (for example if it is traced, see
[4]), which could result in a kernel stack overflow.
Those preventive sfence.vma needed to be emitted because:
- if the uarch caches invalid entries, the new mapping may not be
observed by the page table walker and an invalidation may be needed.
- if the uarch does not cache invalid entries, a reordered access
could "miss" the new mapping and traps: in that case, we would actually
only need to retry the access, no sfence.vma is required.
So this patch removes those preventive sfence.vma and actually handles
the possible (and unlikely) exceptions. And since the kernel stacks
mappings lie in the vmalloc area, this handling must be done very early
when the trap is taken, at the very beginning of handle_exception: this
also rules out the vmalloc allocations in the fault path.

Hi,
For XIP kernel, the writable data section is always at offset specified in
XIP_OFFSET, which is hard-coded to 32MB.
Unfortunately, this means the read-only section (placed before the
writable section) is restricted in size. This causes build failure if the
kernel gets too large.
This series remove the use of XIP_OFFSET one by one, then remove this
macro entirely at the end, with the goal of lifting this size restriction.
Also some cleanup and documentation along the way.

XIP_OFFSET is the hard-coded offset of writable data section within the
kernel.
By hard-coding this value, the read-only section of the kernel (which is
placed before the writable data section) is restricted in size.
As a preparation to remove this hard-coded value entirely, stop using
XIP_OFFSET in create_kernel_page_table(). Instead use _sdata and _start to
do the same thing.

On XIP kernel, the name "va_kernel_pa_offset" is misleading: unlike
"normal" kernel, it is not the virtual-physical address offset of kernel
mapping, it is the offset of kernel mapping's first virtual address to
first physical address in DRAM, which is not meaningful because the
kernel's first physical address is not in DRAM.
For XIP kernel, there are 2 different offsets because the read-only part of
the kernel resides in ROM while the rest is in RAM. The offset to ROM is in
kernel_map.va_kernel_xip_pa_offset, while the offset to RAM is not stored
anywhere: it is calculated on-the-fly.
Remove this confusing "va_kernel_pa_offset" and add
"va_kernel_xip_data_pa_offset" as its replacement. This new variable is the
offset of virtual mapping of the kernel's data portion to the corresponding
physical addresses.
With the introduction of this new variable, also rename
va_kernel_xip_pa_offset -> va_kernel_xip_text_pa_offset to make it clear
that this one is about the .text section.

The icache will be flushed in switch_to() if force_icache_flush is true,
or in flush_icache_deferred() if icache_stale_mask is set. Between
setting force_icache_flush to false and calculating the new
icache_stale_mask, preemption needs to be disabled. There are two
reasons for this:
1. If CPU migration happens between force_icache_flush = false, and the
icache_stale_mask is set, an icache flush will not be emitted.
2. smp_processor_id() is used in set_icache_stale_mask() to mark the
current CPU as not needing another flush since a flush will have
happened either by userspace or by the kernel when performing the
migration. smp_processor_id() is currently called twice with preemption
enabled which causes a race condition. It allows
icache_stale_mask to be populated with inconsistent CPU ids.
Resolve these two issues by setting the icache_stale_mask before setting
force_icache_flush to false, and using get_cpu()/put_cpu() to obtain the
smp_processor_id().

With XIP kernel, kernel_map.size is set to be only the size of data part of
the kernel. This is inconsistent with "normal" kernel, who sets it to be
the size of the entire kernel.
More importantly, XIP kernel fails to boot if CONFIG_DEBUG_VIRTUAL is
enabled, because there are checks on virtual addresses with the assumption
that kernel_map.size is the size of the entire kernel (these checks are in
arch/riscv/mm/physaddr.c).
Change XIP's kernel_map.size to be the size of the entire kernel.

The RISC-V kernel already has checks to ensure that memory which would
lie outside of the linear mapping is not used. However those checks
use memory_limit, which is used to implement the mem= kernel command
line option (to limit the total amount of memory, not its address
range). When memory is made up of two or more non-contiguous memory
banks this check is incorrect.
Two changes are made here:
- add a call in setup_bootmem() to memblock_cap_memory_range() which
will cause any memory which falls outside the linear mapping to be
removed from the memory regions.
- remove the check in create_linear_mapping_page_table() which was
intended to remove memory which is outside the liner mapping based
on memory_limit, as it is no longer needed. Note a check for
mapping more memory than memory_limit (to implement mem=) is
unnecessary because of the existing call to
memblock_enforce_memory_limit().
This issue was seen when booting on a SV39 platform with two memory
banks:
0x00,80000000 1GiB
0x20,00000000 32GiB
This memory range is 158GiB from top to bottom, but the linear mapping
is limited to 128GiB, so the lower block of RAM will be mapped at
PAGE_OFFSET, and the upper block straddles the top of the linear
mapping.

On powerpc 8xx huge_ptep_get() will need to know whether the given ptep is
a PTE entry or a PMD entry. This cannot be known with the PMD entry
itself because there is no easy way to know it from the content of the
entry.
So huge_ptep_get() will need to know either the size of the page or get
the pmd.
In order to be consistent with huge_ptep_get_and_clear(), give mm and
address to huge_ptep_get().

During memory hot remove, the ptdump functionality can end up touching
stale data. Avoid any potential crashes (or worse), by holding the

For an architecture to support memory hotplugging, a couple of
callbacks needs to be implemented:
arch_add_memory()
This callback is responsible for adding the physical memory into the
direct map, and call into the memory hotplugging generic code via
__add_pages() that adds the corresponding struct page entries, and
updates the vmemmap mapping.
arch_remove_memory()
This is the inverse of the callback above.
vmemmap_free()
This function tears down the vmemmap mappings (if
CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP is enabled), and also deallocates the
backing vmemmap pages. Note that for persistent memory, an
alternative allocator for the backing pages can be used; The
vmem_altmap. This means that when the backing pages are cleared,
extra care is needed so that the correct deallocation method is
used.
arch_get_mappable_range()
This functions returns the PA range that the direct map can map.
Used by the MHP internals for sanity checks.
The page table unmap/teardown functions are heavily based on code from
the x86 tree. The same remove_pgd_mapping() function is used in both
vmemmap_free() and arch_remove_memory(), but in the latter function
the backing pages are not removed.

Prepare for memory hotplugging support by changing from __init to
__meminit for the page table functions that are used by the upcoming
architecture specific callbacks.
Changing the __init attribute to __meminit, avoids that the functions
are removed after init. The __meminit attribute makes sure the
functions are kept in the kernel text post init, but only if memory
hotplugging is enabled for the build.

The RISC-V port copies the PGD table from init_mm/swapper_pg_dir to
all userland page tables, which means that if the PGD level table is
changed, other page tables has to be updated as well.
Instead of having the PGD changes ripple out to all tables, the
synchronization can be avoided by pre-allocating the PGD entries/pages
at boot, avoiding the synchronization all together.
This is currently done for the bpf/modules, and vmalloc PGD regions.
Extend this scheme for the PGD regions touched by memory hotplugging.
Prepare the RISC-V port for memory hotplug by pre-allocate
vmemmap/direct map/kasan entries at the PGD level. This will roughly
waste ~128 (plus 32 if KASAN is enabled) worth of 4K pages when memory
hotplugging is enabled in the kernel configuration.

On riscv32, it is possible for the last page in virtual address space
(0xfffff000) to be allocated. This page overlaps with PTR_ERR, so that
shouldn't happen.
There is already some code to ensure memblock won't allocate the last page.
However, buddy allocator is left unchecked.
Fix this by reserving physical memory that would be mapped at virtual
addresses greater than 0xfffff000.

__kernel_map_pages() is a debug function which clears the valid bit in page
table entry for deallocated pages to detect illegal memory accesses to
freed pages.
This function set/clear the valid bit using __set_memory(). __set_memory()
acquires init_mm's semaphore, and this operation may sleep. This is
problematic, because __kernel_map_pages() can be called in atomic context,
and thus is illegal to sleep. An example warning that this causes:

debug_pagealloc is a debug feature which clears the valid bit in page table
entry for freed pages to detect illegal accesses to freed memory.
For this feature to work, virtual mapping must have PAGE_SIZE resolution.
(No, we cannot map with huge pages and split them only when needed; because
pages can be allocated/freed in atomic context and page splitting cannot be
done in atomic context)
Force linear mapping to use small pages if debug_pagealloc is enabled.
Note that it is not necessary to force the entire linear mapping, but only
those that are given to memory allocator. Some parts of memory can keep
using huge page mapping (for example, kernel's executable code). But these
parts are minority, so keep it simple. This is just a debug feature, some
extra overhead should be acceptable.

Samuel Holland <[email protected]> says:
This series converts uniprocessor kernel builds to use the same TLB
flushing code as SMP builds, to take advantage of batching and existing
range- and ASID-based TLB flush optimizations. It optimizes out IPIs and
SBI calls based on the online CPU count, which also covers the scenario
where SMP was enabled at build time but only one CPU is present/online.
A final optimization is to use single-ASID flushes wherever possible, to
avoid unnecessary TLB misses for kernel mappings.
This series has a semantic conflict with the AIA patches that are in
linux-next due to the removal of the third parameter of
riscv_ipi_set_virq_range(), which is called from imsic_ipi_domain_init()
in drivers/irqchip/irq-riscv-imsic-early.c. The resolution is to remove
the extra argument from the call site.

After commit f51f7a0fc2f4 ("riscv: enable DMA_BOUNCE_UNALIGNED_KMALLOC
for !dma_coherent"), for non-coherent platforms with less than 4GB
memory, we rely on users to pass "swiotlb=mmnn,force" kernel parameters
to enable DMA bouncing for unaligned kmalloc() buffers. Now let's go
further: If no bouncing needed for ZONE_DMA, let kernel automatically
allocate 1MB swiotlb buffer per 1GB of RAM for kmalloc() bouncing on
non-coherent platforms, so that no need to pass "swiotlb=mmnn,force"
any more.
The math of "1MB swiotlb buffer per 1GB of RAM for kmalloc() bouncing"
is taken from arm64. Users can still force smaller swiotlb buffer by
passing "swiotlb=mmnn".

Even if multiple ASIDs are not supported, using the single-ASID variant
of the sfence.vma instruction preserves TLB entries for global (kernel)
pages. So it is always more efficient to use the single-ASID code path.

If the CPU does not support multiple ASIDs, all MM contexts use ASID 0.
In this case, it is still beneficial to flush the TLB by ASID, as the
single-ASID variant of the sfence.vma instruction preserves TLB entries
for global (kernel) pages.
This optimization is recommended by the RISC-V privileged specification:
If the implementation does not provide ASIDs, or software chooses
to always use ASID 0, then after every satp write, software should
execute SFENCE.VMA with rs1=x0. In the common case that no global
translations have been modified, rs2 should be set to a register
other than x0 but which contains the value zero, so that global
translations are not flushed.
It is not possible to apply this optimization when using the ASID
allocator, because that code must flush the TLB for all ASIDs at once
when incrementing the version number.

Currently, the size of the ASID field in the MM context ID dynamically
depends on the number of hardware-supported ASID bits. This requires
reading a global variable to extract either field from the context ID.
Instead, allocate the maximum possible number of bits to the ASID field,
so the layout of the context ID is known at compile-time.

When using the ASID allocator, the MM context ID contains two values:
the ASID in the lower bits, and the allocator version number in the
remaining bits. Use macros to make this separation more obvious.

Implementations affected by SiFive errata CIP-1200 have a bug which
forces the kernel to always use the global variant of the sfence.vma
instruction. When affected by this errata, do not attempt to flush a
range of addresses; each iteration of the loop would actually flush the
whole TLB instead. Instead, minimize the overall number of sfence.vma
instructions.

commit 3f1e782998cd ("riscv: add ASID-based tlbflushing methods") added
calls to the sfence.vma instruction with rs2 != x0. These single-ASID
instruction variants are also affected by SiFive errata CIP-1200.
Until now, the errata workaround was not needed for the single-ASID
sfence.vma variants, because they were only used when the ASID allocator
was enabled, and the affected SiFive platforms do not support multiple
ASIDs. However, we are going to start using those sfence.vma variants
regardless of ASID support, so now we need alternatives covering them.

In SMP configurations, all TLB flushing narrower than flush_tlb_all()
goes through __flush_tlb_range(). Do the same in UP configurations.
This allows UP configurations to take advantage of recent improvements

multiple-page ranges.
