[PATCH] selftest/mm: va_high_addr_switch: add ppc64 support check

by Li Wang

This patch adds PPC64 Radix MMU support to the va_high_addr_switch.sh by introducing check_supported_ppc64(). The function verifies: - 5-level paging (PGTABLE_LEVELS >= 5) enable in kernel config - Radix MMU (required for PPC64 5-level translation) - HugePages availability (needed for some tests) If any check fails, the test is skipped (ksft_skip). This ensures compatibility with Power9/Power10 systems running in Radix MMU mode. Avoid failures on 4-level paging system: # mmap(NULL, MAP_HUGETLB): 0xffffffffffffffff - FAILED # mmap(LOW_ADDR, MAP_HUGETLB): 0xffffffffffffffff - FAILED # mmap(HIGH_ADDR, MAP_HUGETLB): 0xffffffffffffffff - FAILED # mmap(HIGH_ADDR, MAP_HUGETLB) again: 0xffffffffffffffff - FAILED # mmap(HIGH_ADDR, MAP_FIXED | MAP_HUGETLB): 0xffffffffffffffff - FAILED # mmap(-1, MAP_HUGETLB): 0xffffffffffffffff - FAILED # mmap(-1, MAP_HUGETLB) again: 0xffffffffffffffff - FAILED # mmap(ADDR_SWITCH_HINT - PAGE_SIZE, 2*HUGETLB_SIZE, MAP_HUGETLB): 0xffffffffffffffff - FAILED # mmap(ADDR_SWITCH_HINT , 2*HUGETLB_SIZE, MAP_FIXED | MAP_HUGETLB): 0xffffffffffffffff - FAILED Signed-off-by: Li Wang <liwang(a)redhat.com> --- .../selftests/mm/va_high_addr_switch.sh | 28 +++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 28 insertions(+) diff --git a/tools/testing/selftests/mm/va_high_addr_switch.sh b/tools/testing/selftests/mm/va_high_addr_switch.sh index 2c725773cd79..1f92e8caceac 100755 --- a/tools/testing/selftests/mm/va_high_addr_switch.sh +++ b/tools/testing/selftests/mm/va_high_addr_switch.sh @@ -41,6 +41,31 @@ check_supported_x86_64() fi } +check_supported_ppc64() +{ + local config="/proc/config.gz" + [[ -f "${config}" ]] || config="/boot/config-$(uname -r)" + [[ -f "${config}" ]] || fail "Cannot find kernel config in /proc or /boot" + + local pg_table_levels=$(gzip -dcfq "${config}" | grep PGTABLE_LEVELS | cut -d'=' -f 2) + if [[ "${pg_table_levels}" -lt 5 ]]; then + echo "$0: PGTABLE_LEVELS=${pg_table_levels}, must be >= 5 to run this test" + exit $ksft_skip + fi + + local mmu_support=$(grep -m1 "mmu" /proc/cpuinfo | awk '{print $3}') + if [[ "$mmu_support" != "radix" ]]; then + echo "$0: System does not use Radix MMU, required for 5-level paging" + exit $ksft_skip + fi + + local hugepages_total=$(awk '/HugePages_Total/ {print $2}' /proc/meminfo) + if [[ "${hugepages_total}" -eq 0 ]]; then + echo "$0: HugePages are not enabled, required for some tests" + exit $ksft_skip + fi +} + check_test_requirements() { # The test supports x86_64 and powerpc64.

[RFC PATCH v3 0/8] PMU partitioning driver support

by Colton Lewis

This series introduces support in the KVM and ARM PMUv3 driver for partitioning PMU counters into two separate ranges by taking advantage of the MDCR_EL2.HPMN register field. The advantage of a partitioned PMU would be to allow KVM guests direct access to a subset of PMU functionality, greatly reducing the overhead of performance monitoring in guests. While this feature could be accepted on its own merits, practically there is a lot more to be done before it will be fully useful, so I'm sending as an RFC for now. v3: * Include cpucap definition for FEAT_HPMN0 to allow for setting HPMN to 0 * Include PMU header cleanup provided by Marc [1] with some minor changes so compilation works * Pull functions out of pmu-emul.c that aren't specific to the emulated PMU. This and the previous item aren't strictly needed but they provide a nicer starting point. * As suggested by Oliver, start a file for partitioned PMU functions and move the reserved_host_counters parameter and MDCR handling into KVM so the driver does not have to know about it and we need fewer hacks to keep the driver working on 32-bit ARM. This was not a complete separation because the driver still needs to start and stop the host counters all at once and needs to toggle MDCR_EL2.HPME to do that. Introduce kvm_pmu_host_counters_{enable,disable}() functions to handle this and define them as no ops on 32-bit ARM. * As suggested by Oliver, don't limit PMCR.N on emulated PMU. This value will be read correctly when the right traps are disabled to use the partitioned PMU v2: https://lore.kernel.org/kvm/20250208020111.2068239-1-coltonlewis@google.com/ v1: https://lore.kernel.org/kvm/20250127222031.3078945-1-coltonlewis@google.com/ [1] https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/maz/arm-platforms.git/log/?… Colton Lewis (7): arm64: cpufeature: Add cap for HPMN0 arm64: Generate sign macro for sysreg Enums KVM: arm64: Reorganize PMU functions KVM: arm64: Introduce module param to partition the PMU perf: arm_pmuv3: Generalize counter bitmasks perf: arm_pmuv3: Keep out of guest counter partition KVM: arm64: selftests: Reword selftests error Marc Zyngier (1): KVM: arm64: Cleanup PMU includes arch/arm/include/asm/arm_pmuv3.h | 2 + arch/arm64/include/asm/arm_pmuv3.h | 2 +- arch/arm64/include/asm/kvm_host.h | 199 +++++++- arch/arm64/include/asm/kvm_pmu.h | 47 ++ arch/arm64/kernel/cpufeature.c | 8 + arch/arm64/kvm/Makefile | 2 +- arch/arm64/kvm/arm.c | 1 - arch/arm64/kvm/debug.c | 10 +- arch/arm64/kvm/hyp/include/hyp/switch.h | 1 + arch/arm64/kvm/pmu-emul.c | 464 +----------------- arch/arm64/kvm/pmu-part.c | 63 +++ arch/arm64/kvm/pmu.c | 454 +++++++++++++++++ arch/arm64/kvm/sys_regs.c | 2 + arch/arm64/tools/cpucaps | 1 + arch/arm64/tools/gen-sysreg.awk | 1 + arch/arm64/tools/sysreg | 6 +- drivers/perf/arm_pmuv3.c | 73 ++- include/kvm/arm_pmu.h | 204 -------- include/linux/perf/arm_pmu.h | 16 +- include/linux/perf/arm_pmuv3.h | 27 +- .../selftests/kvm/arm64/vpmu_counter_access.c | 2 +- virt/kvm/kvm_main.c | 1 + 22 files changed, 882 insertions(+), 704 deletions(-) create mode 100644 arch/arm64/include/asm/kvm_pmu.h create mode 100644 arch/arm64/kvm/pmu-part.c delete mode 100644 include/kvm/arm_pmu.h base-commit: 2014c95afecee3e76ca4a56956a936e23283f05b -- 2.48.1.601.g30ceb7b040-goog

[PATCH] selftests: vDSO: vdso_standalone_test_x86: Replace source file with symlink

With the switch over to nolibc the source file vdso_standalone_test_x86.c was intended to be replaced with a symlink to vdso_test_gettimeofday.c. This was the patch that was submitted to LKML, but during application the symlink was replaced by a textual copy of the linked-to file. Having two copies introduces the possibility of divergence and increases maintenance burden, switch back to a symlink.

[PATCH v4 00/30] context_tracking,x86: Defer some IPIs until a user->kernel transition

by Valentin Schneider

Context ======= We've observed within Red Hat that isolated, NOHZ_FULL CPUs running a pure-userspace application get regularly interrupted by IPIs sent from housekeeping CPUs. Those IPIs are caused by activity on the housekeeping CPUs leading to various on_each_cpu() calls, e.g.: 64359.052209596 NetworkManager 0 1405 smp_call_function_many_cond (cpu=0, func=do_kernel_range_flush) smp_call_function_many_cond+0x1 smp_call_function+0x39 on_each_cpu+0x2a flush_tlb_kernel_range+0x7b __purge_vmap_area_lazy+0x70 _vm_unmap_aliases.part.42+0xdf change_page_attr_set_clr+0x16a set_memory_ro+0x26 bpf_int_jit_compile+0x2f9 bpf_prog_select_runtime+0xc6 bpf_prepare_filter+0x523 sk_attach_filter+0x13 sock_setsockopt+0x92c __sys_setsockopt+0x16a __x64_sys_setsockopt+0x20 do_syscall_64+0x87 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x65 The heart of this series is the thought that while we cannot remove NOHZ_FULL CPUs from the list of CPUs targeted by these IPIs, they may not have to execute the callbacks immediately. Anything that only affects kernelspace can wait until the next user->kernel transition, providing it can be executed "early enough" in the entry code. The original implementation is from Peter [1]. Nicolas then added kernel TLB invalidation deferral to that [2], and I picked it up from there. Deferral approach ================= Storing each and every callback, like a secondary call_single_queue turned out to be a no-go: the whole point of deferral is to keep NOHZ_FULL CPUs in userspace for as long as possible - no signal of any form would be sent when deferring an IPI. This means that any form of queuing for deferred callbacks would end up as a convoluted memory leak. Deferred IPIs must thus be coalesced, which this series achieves by assigning IPIs a "type" and having a mapping of IPI type to callback, leveraged upon kernel entry. What about IPIs whose callback take a parameter, you may ask? Peter suggested during OSPM23 [3] that since on_each_cpu() targets housekeeping CPUs *and* isolated CPUs, isolated CPUs can access either global or housekeeping-CPU-local state to "reconstruct" the data that would have been sent via the IPI. This series does not affect any IPI callback that requires an argument, but the approach would remain the same (one coalescable callback executed on kernel entry). Kernel entry vs execution of the deferred operation =================================================== This is what I've referred to as the "Danger Zone" during my LPC24 talk [4]. There is a non-zero length of code that is executed upon kernel entry before the deferred operation can be itself executed (i.e. before we start getting into context_tracking.c proper), i.e.: idtentry_func_foo() <--- we're in the kernel irqentry_enter() enter_from_user_mode() __ct_user_exit() ct_kernel_enter_state() ct_work_flush() <--- deferred operation is executed here This means one must take extra care to what can happen in the early entry code, and that <bad things> cannot happen. For instance, we really don't want to hit instructions that have been modified by a remote text_poke() while we're on our way to execute a deferred sync_core(). Patches doing the actual deferral have more detail on this. Patches ======= o Patches 1-2 are standalone objtool cleanups. o Patches 3-4 add an RCU testing feature. o Patches 5-6 add infrastructure for annotating static keys and static calls that may be used in noinstr code (courtesy of Josh). o Patches 7-19 use said annotations on relevant keys / calls. o Patch 20 enforces proper usage of said annotations (courtesy of Josh). o Patches 21-23 fiddle with CT_STATE* within context tracking o Patches 24-29 add the actual IPI deferral faff o Patch 30 adds a freebie: deferring IPIs for NOHZ_IDLE. Not tested that much! if you care about battery-powered devices and energy consumption, go give it a try! Patches are also available at: https://gitlab.com/vschneid/linux.git -b redhat/isolirq/defer/v4 Stuff I'd like eyes and neurons on ================================== Context-tracking vs idle. Patch 22 "improves" the situation by adding an IDLE->KERNEL transition when getting an IRQ while idle, but it leaves the following window: ~> IRQ ct_nmi_enter() state = state + CT_STATE_KERNEL - CT_STATE_IDLE [...] ct_nmi_exit() state = state - CT_STATE_KERNEL + CT_STATE_IDLE [...] /!\ CT_STATE_IDLE here while we're really in kernelspace! /!\ ct_cpuidle_exit() state = state + CT_STATE_KERNEL - CT_STATE_IDLE Said window is contained within cpu_idle_poll() and the cpuidle call within cpuidle_enter_state(), both being noinstr (the former is __cpuidle which is noinstr itself). Thus objtool will consider it as early entry and will warn accordingly of any static key / call misuse, so the damage is somewhat contained, but it's not ideal. I tried fiddling with this but idle polling likes being annoying, as it is shaped like so: ct_cpuidle_enter(); raw_local_irq_enable(); while (!tif_need_resched() && (cpu_idle_force_poll || tick_check_broadcast_expired())) cpu_relax(); raw_local_irq_disable(); ct_cpuidle_exit(); IOW, getting an IRQ that doesn't end up setting NEED_RESCHED while idle-polling doesn't come near ct_cpuidle_exit(), which prevents me from having the outermost ct_nmi_exit() leave the state as CT_STATE_KERNEL (rather than CT_STATE_IDLE). Testing ======= Xeon E5-2699 system with SMToff, NOHZ_FULL, isolated CPUs. RHEL9 userspace. Workload is using rteval (kernel compilation + hackbench) on housekeeping CPUs and a dummy stay-in-userspace loop on the isolated CPUs. The main invocation is: $ trace-cmd record -e "csd_queue_cpu" -f "cpu & CPUS{$ISOL_CPUS}" \ -e "ipi_send_cpumask" -f "cpumask & CPUS{$ISOL_CPUS}" \ -e "ipi_send_cpu" -f "cpu & CPUS{$ISOL_CPUS}" \ rteval --onlyload --loads-cpulist=$HK_CPUS \ --hackbench-runlowmem=True --duration=$DURATION This only records IPIs sent to isolated CPUs, so any event there is interference (with a bit of fuzz at the start/end of the workload when spawning the processes). All tests were done with a duration of 6 hours. v6.13-rc6 # This is the actual IPI count $ trace-cmd report | grep callback | awk '{ print $(NF) }' | sort | uniq -c | sort -nr 531 callback=generic_smp_call_function_single_interrupt+0x0 # These are the different CSD's that caused IPIs $ trace-cmd report | grep csd_queue | awk '{ print $(NF-1) }' | sort | uniq -c | sort -nr 12818 func=do_flush_tlb_all 910 func=do_kernel_range_flush 78 func=do_sync_core v6.13-rc6 + patches: # This is the actual IPI count $ trace-cmd report | grep callback | awk '{ print $(NF) }' | sort | uniq -c | sort -nr # Zilch! # These are the different CSD's that caused IPIs $ trace-cmd report | grep csd_queue | awk '{ print $(NF-1) }' | sort | uniq -c | sort -nr # Nada! Note that tlb_remove_table_smp_sync() showed up during testing of v3, and has gone as mysteriously as it showed up. Yair had a series adressing this [5] which would be worth revisiting.

[PATCHv5 net-next 0/2] wireguard: selftests: use nftables for testing

by Hangbin Liu

This patch set convert iptables to nftables for wireguard testing, as iptables is deparated and nftables is the default framework of most releases. v5: remove the counter in nft rules and link nft statically (Jason A. Donenfeld) v4: no update, just re-send v3: drop iptables directly (Jason A. Donenfeld) Also convert to using nft for qemu testing (Jason A. Donenfeld) v2: use one nft table for testing (Phil Sutter) Hangbin Liu (2): wireguard: selftests: convert iptables to nft wireguard: selftests: update to using nft for qemu test tools/testing/selftests/wireguard/netns.sh | 29 +++++++++------ .../testing/selftests/wireguard/qemu/Makefile | 36 ++++++++++++++----- .../selftests/wireguard/qemu/kernel.config | 7 ++-- 3 files changed, 49 insertions(+), 23 deletions(-) -- 2.46.0
