Subject: mm/hugetlb: wait for hugetlb folios to be freed
Date: Tue, 18 Feb 2025 19:40:28 +0800
Since the introduction of commit c77c0a8ac4c52 ("mm/hugetlb: defer freeing
of huge pages if in non-task context"), which supports deferring the
freeing of hugetlb pages, the allocation of contiguous memory through
cma_alloc() may fail probabilistically.
In the CMA allocation process, if it is found that the CMA area is
occupied by in-use hugetlb folios, these in-use hugetlb folios need to be
migrated to another location. When there are no available hugetlb folios
in the free hugetlb pool during the migration of in-use hugetlb folios,
new folios are allocated from the buddy system. A temporary state is set
on the newly allocated folio. Upon completion of the hugetlb folio
migration, the temporary state is transferred from the new folios to the
old folios. Normally, when the old folios with the temporary state are
freed, it is directly released back to the buddy system. However, due to
the deferred freeing of hugetlb pages, the PageBuddy() check fails,
ultimately leading to the failure of cma_alloc().
Here is a simplified call trace illustrating the process:
cma_alloc()
->__alloc_contig_migrate_range() // Migrate in-use hugetlb folios
->unmap_and_move_huge_page()
->folio_putback_hugetlb() // Free old folios
->test_pages_isolated()
->__test_page_isolated_in_pageblock()
->PageBuddy(page) // Check if the page is in buddy
To resolve this issue, we have implemented a function named
wait_for_freed_hugetlb_folios(). This function ensures that the hugetlb
folios are properly released back to the buddy system after their
migration is completed. By invoking wait_for_freed_hugetlb_folios()
before calling PageBuddy(), we ensure that PageBuddy() will succeed.

[ Upstream commit 4b54ae69197b9f416baa0fceadff7e89075f8454 ]
The timestamps in the Firmware log and HID sensor samples are incorrect.
They show 1970-01-01 because the current IPC driver only uses the first
8 bytes of bootup time when synchronizing time with the firmware. The
firmware converts the bootup time to UTC time, which results in the
display of 1970-01-01.
In write_ipc_from_queue(), when sending the MNG_SYNC_FW_CLOCK message,
the clock is updated according to the definition of ipc_time_update_msg.
However, in _ish_sync_fw_clock(), the message length is specified as the
size of uint64_t when building the doorbell. As a result, the firmware
only receives the first 8 bytes of struct ipc_time_update_msg.
This patch corrects the length in the doorbell to ensure the entire
ipc_time_update_msg is sent, fixing the timestamp issue.

[ Upstream commit e9fe182772dcb2630964724fd93e9c90b68ea0fd ]
dsp_local_on has several incorrect assumptions, one of which is that
p->nr_cpus_allowed always tracks p->cpus_ptr. This is not true when a task
is scheduled out while migration is disabled - p->cpus_ptr is temporarily
overridden to the previous CPU while p->nr_cpus_allowed remains unchanged.
This led to sporadic test faliures when dsp_local_on_dispatch() tries to put
a migration disabled task to a different CPU. Fix it by keeping the previous
CPU when migration is disabled.
There are SCX schedulers that make use of p->nr_cpus_allowed. They should
also implement explicit handling for p->migration_disabled.
