Implement net DIM over a generic DIM library, add RDMA DIM
dim.h lib exposes an implementation of the DIM algorithm for
dynamically-tuned interrupt moderation for networking interfaces.
We want a similar functionality for other protocols, which might need to
optimize interrupts differently. Main motivation here is DIM for NVMf
storage protocol.
Current DIM implementation prioritizes reducing interrupt overhead over
latency. Also, in order to reduce DIM's own overhead, the algorithm might
take some time to identify it needs to change profiles. While this is
acceptable for networking, it might not work well on other scenarios.
Here we propose a new structure to DIM. The idea is to allow a slightly
modified functionality without the risk of breaking Net DIM behavior for
netdev. We verified there are no degradations in current DIM behavior with
the modified solution.
Suggested solution:
- Common logic is implemented in lib/dim/dim.c
- Net DIM (existing) logic is implemented in lib/dim/net_dim.c, which uses
the common logic in dim.c
- Any new DIM logic will be implemented in "lib/dim/new_dim.c".
This new implementation will expose modified versions of profiles,
dim_step() and dim_decision().
- DIM API is declared in include/linux/dim.h for all implementations.
Pros for this solution are:
- Zero impact on existing net_dim implementation and usage
- Relatively more code reuse (compared to two separate solutions)
- Increased extensibility

The decoder is flawed in the following ways:
- The decoder sometimes fails silently, i.e. it announces success but
returns a word that is not a codeword.
- The return value of the decoder is incoherent with respect to how
fixed erasures are counted. If the word to be decoded is a codeword,
then the decoder always returns zero even if some erasures are given.
On the other hand, if the word to be decoded contains errors, then the
number of erasures is always included in the count of corrected
symbols. So the decoder handles erasures without symbol corruption
inconsistently. This inconsistency probably doesn't affect anyone
using the decoder, but it is inconsistent with the documentation.
- The error positions returned in eras_pos include all erasures, but the
corrections are only set in the correction buffer if there actually is
a symbol error. So if there are erasures without symbol corruption,
then the correction buffer will contain errors (unless initialized to
zero before calling the decoder) or some values will be unset (if the
correction buffer is uninitialized).
- When correcting data in-place the decoder does not correct errors in
the parity. On the other hand, when returning the errors in correction
buffers, errors in the parity are included.
The respective fixed are:
- The syndrome of a codeword is always zero, and the syndrome is linear,
.i.e, S(x+e) = S(x) + S(e). So compute the syndrome for the error and
check whether it equals the syndrome of the received word. If it does,
then we have decoded to a valid codeword, otherwise we know that we
have an uncorrectable error. Fortunately, some unrecoverable error
conditions can be detected earlier in the decoding, which saves some
processing power.
- Simply count and return the number of symbols actually corrected.
- Make sure to only return positions where symbols were corrected.
- Also fix errors in parity when correcting in-place. Another option
would be to completely disregard errors in the parity, but then the
interface makes it impossible to write tests that test for silent
failures.
Other changes:
- Only fill the correction buffer and error position buffer if both of
them are provided. Otherwise correct in place. Previously the error
position buffer was always populated with the positions of the
corrected errors, irrespective of whether a correction buffer was
supplied or not. The rationale for this change is that there seems to
be two use cases for the decoder; correct in-place or use the
correction buffers. The caller does not need the positions of the
corrected errors when in-place correction is used. If in-place
correction is not used, then both the correction buffer and error
position buffer need to be populated.

The decoding of shortenend codes is broken. It only works as expected if
there are no erasures.
When decoding with erasures, Lambda (the error and erasure locator
polynomial) is initialized from the given erasure positions. The pad
parameter is not accounted for by the initialisation code, and hence
Lambda is initialized from incorrect erasure positions.
The fix is to adjust the erasure positions by the supplied pad.

A Reed-Solomon code with minimum distance d can correct any error and
erasure pattern that satisfies 2 * #error + #erasures < d. If the
error correction capacity is exceeded, then correct decoding cannot be
guaranteed. The decoder must, however, return a valid codeword or report
failure.
There are two main tests:
- Check for correct behaviour up to the error correction capacity
- Check for correct behaviour beyond error corrupted capacity
Both tests are simple:
1. Generate random data
2. Encode data with the chosen code
3. Add errors and erasures to data
4. Decode the corrupted word
5. Check for correct behaviour
When testing up to capacity we test for:
- Correct decoding
- Correct return value (i.e. the number of corrected symbols)
- That the returned error positions are correct
There are two kinds of erasures; the erased symbol can be corrupted or
not. When counting the number of corrected symbols, erasures without
symbol corruption should not be counted. Similarly, the returned error
positions should only include positions where a correction is necessary.
We run the up to capacity tests for three different interfaces of
decode_rs:
- Use the correction buffers
- Use the correction buffers with syndromes provided by the caller
- Error correction in place (does not check the error positions)
When testing beyond capacity test for silent failures. A silent failure is
when the decoder returns success but the returned word is not a valid
codeword.
There are a couple of options for the tests:
- Verbosity.
- Whether to test for correct behaviour beyond capacity. Default is to
test beyond capacity.
- Whether to allow erasures without symbol corruption. Defaults to yes.
Note that the tests take a couple of minutes to complete.

The x86 vdso implementation on which the generic vdso library is based on
has subtle (unfortunately undocumented) twists:
1) The code assumes that the clocksource mask is U64_MAX which means that
no bits are masked. Which is true for any valid x86 VDSO clocksource.
Stupidly it still did the mask operation for no reason and at the wrong
place right after reading the clocksource.
2) It contains a sanity check to catch the case where slightly
unsynchronized TSC values can be observed which would cause the delta
calculation to make a huge jump. It therefore checks whether the
current TSC value is larger than the value on which the current
conversion is based on. If it's not larger the base value is used to
prevent time jumps.
#1 Is not only stupid for the X86 case because it does the masking for no
reason it is also completely wrong for clocksources with a smaller mask
which can legitimately wrap around during a conversion period. The core
timekeeping code does it correct by applying the mask after the delta
calculation:
(now - base) & mask
#2 is equally broken for clocksources which have smaller masks and can wrap
around during a conversion period because there the now > base check is
just wrong and causes stale time stamps and time going backwards issues.
Unbreak it by:
1) Removing the mask operation from the clocksource read which makes the
fallback detection work for all clocksources
2) Replacing the conditional delta calculation with a overrideable inline
function.
#2 could reuse clocksource_delta() from the timekeeping code but that
results in a significant performance hit for the x86 VSDO. The timekeeping
core code must have the non optimized version as it has to operate
correctly with clocksources which have smaller masks as well to handle the
case where TSC is discarded as timekeeper clocksource and replaced by HPET
or pmtimer. For the VDSO there is no replacement clocksource. If TSC is
unusable the syscall is enforced which does the right thing.
To accommodate to the needs of various architectures provide an
override-able inline function which defaults to the regular delta
calculation with masking:
(now - base) & mask
Override it for x86 with the non-masking and checking version.
This unbreaks the ARM64 syscall fallback operation, allows to use
clocksources with arbitrary width and preserves the performance
optimization for x86.

sg_alloc_table_chained() currently allows the caller to provide one
preallocated SGL and returns if the requested number isn't bigger than
size of that SGL. This is used to inline an SGL for an IO request.
However, scattergather code only allows that size of the 1st preallocated
SGL to be SG_CHUNK_SIZE(128). This means a substantial amount of memory
(4KB) is claimed for the SGL for each IO request. If the I/O is small, it
would be prudent to allocate a smaller SGL.
Introduce an extra parameter to sg_alloc_table_chained() and
sg_free_table_chained() for specifying size of the preallocated SGL.
Both __sg_free_table() and __sg_alloc_table() assume that each SGL has the
same size except for the last one. Change the code to allow both functions
to accept a variable size for the 1st preallocated SGL.

There is no need to check the return value of a debugfs_create_file
call, a caller should never change what they do depending on if debugfs
is working properly or not, so remove the checks, simplifying the logic
in the file a lot.
Also fix up the error check for debugfs_create_dir() which was not
returning NULL for an error, but rather a error pointer.

referenced from drivers/memory/{emif.c,of_memory.c}
drivers/memory/ is a better location than lib/.
I removed the Kconfig prompt "JEDEC DDR data" because it is only

The owner field in the rw_semaphore structure is used primarily for
optimistic spinning. However, identifying the rwsem owner can also be
helpful in debugging as well as tracing locking related issues when
analyzing crash dump. The owner field may also store state information
that can be important to the operation of the rwsem.
So the owner field is now made a permanent member of the rw_semaphore
structure irrespective of CONFIG_RWSEM_SPIN_ON_OWNER.

In Linux build system, build targets and installation targets are
separated.
Examples are:
- 'make vmlinux' -> 'make install'
- 'make modules' -> 'make modules_install'
- 'make dtbs' -> 'make dtbs_install'
- 'make vdso' -> 'make vdso_install'
The intention is to run the build targets under the normal privilege,
then the installation targets under the root privilege since we need
the write permission to the system directories.
We have 'make headers_install' but the corresponding 'make headers'
stage does not exist. The purpose of headers_install is to provide
the kernel interface to C library. So, nobody would try to install
headers to /usr/include directly.
If 'sudo make INSTALL_HDR_PATH=/usr/include headers_install' were run,
some build artifacts in the kernel tree would be owned by root because
some of uapi headers are generated by 'uapi-asm-generic', 'archheaders'
targets.
Anyway, I believe it makes sense to split the header installation into
two stages.
[1] 'make headers'
Process headers in uapi directories by scripts/headers_install.sh
and copy them to usr/include
[2] 'make headers_install'
Copy '*.h' verbatim from usr/include to $(INSTALL_HDR_PATH)/include
For the backward compatibility, 'headers_install' depends on 'headers'.
Some samples expect uapi headers in usr/include. So, the 'headers'
target is useful to build up them in the fixed location usr/include
irrespective of INSTALL_HDR_PATH.
Another benefit is to stop polluting the final destination with the
time-stamp files '.install' and '.check'. Maybe you can see them in
your toolchains.
Lastly, my main motivation is to prepare for compile-testing uapi
headers. To build something, we have to save an object and .*.cmd
somewhere. The usr/include/ will be the work directory for that.

Commit 5318321d367c ("samples: disable CONFIG_SAMPLES for UML") used
a big hammer to fix the build errors under the samples/ directory.
Only some samples actually include uapi headers from usr/include.
Introduce CONFIG_HEADERS_INSTALL since 'depends on HEADERS_INSTALL' is
clearer than 'depends on !UML'. If this option is enabled, uapi headers
are installed before starting directory descending.
I added 'depends on HEADERS_INSTALL' to per-sample CONFIG options.
This allows UML to compile some samples.

Prior to commit 257edce66d31 ("kbuild: exploit parallel building for
CONFIG_HEADERS_CHECK"), the sanity check of exported headers was done
as a side-effect of build rule of vmlinux.
That commit is good, but I missed to update the prompt of the Kconfig
entry. For the sake of preciseness, lets' say "when building 'all'".

The db->lock is a raw spinlock and so the lock hold time is supposed
to be short. This will not be the case when printk() is being involved
in some of the critical sections. In order to avoid the long hold time,
in case some messages need to be printed, the debug_object_is_on_stack()
and debug_print_object() calls are now moved out of those critical
sections.

After a system bootup and 3 parallel kernel builds, a partial output
of the debug objects stats file was:
pool_free :5101
pool_pcp_free :4181
pool_min_free :220
pool_used :104172
pool_max_used :171920
on_free_list :0
objs_allocated:39268280
objs_freed :39160031
More than 39 millions debug objects had since been allocated and then
freed. The pool_max_used, however, was only about 172k. So this is a
lot of extra overhead in freeing and allocating objects from slabs. It
may also causes the slabs to be more fragmented and harder to reclaim.
Make the freeing of excess debug objects less aggressive by freeing them at
a maximum frequency of 10Hz and about 1k objects at each round of freeing.
With that change applied, the partial output of the debug objects stats
file after similar actions became:
pool_free :5901
pool_pcp_free :3742
pool_min_free :1022
pool_used :104805
pool_max_used :168081
on_free_list :0

In fill_pool(), the pool_lock is acquired and then released once per debug
object. If many objects are to be filled, the constant lock and unlock
operations are extra overhead.
To reduce the overhead, batch them up and do an allocation of 4 objects per
lock/unlock sequence.

Most workloads will allocate a bunch of memory objects, work on them
and then freeing all or most of them. So just having a percpu free pool
may not reduce the pool_lock contention significantly if large number
of objects are being used.
To help those situations, we are now doing lookahead allocation and
freeing of the debug objects into and out of the percpu free pool. This
will hopefully reduce the number of times the pool_lock needs to be
taken and hence its contention level.

When a multi-threaded workload does a lot of small memory object
allocations and deallocations, it may cause the allocation and freeing of
many debug objects. This will make the global pool_lock a bottleneck in the
performance of the workload. Since interrupts are disabled when acquiring
the pool_lock, it may even cause hard lockups to happen.
To reduce contention of the global pool_lock, add a percpu debug object
free pool that can be used to buffer some of the debug object allocation
and freeing requests without acquiring the pool_lock. Each CPU will now
have a percpu free pool that can hold up to a maximum of 64 debug
objects. Allocation and freeing requests will go to the percpu free pool
first. If that fails, the pool_lock will be taken and the global free pool
will be used.
The presence or absence of obj_cache is used as a marker to see if the
percpu cache should be used.
