GFP_TEMPORARY was introduced by commit e12ba74d ("Group short-lived and reclaimable kernel allocations") along with __GFP_RECLAIMABLE. It's primary motivation was to allow users to tell that an allocation is short lived and so the allocator can try to place such allocations close together and prevent long term fragmentation. As much as this sounds like a reasonable semantic it becomes much less clear when to use the highlevel GFP_TEMPORARY allocation flag. How long is temporary? Can the context holding that memory sleep? Can it take locks? It seems there is no good answer for those questions. The current implementation of GFP_TEMPORARY is basically GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_RECLAIMABLE which in itself is tricky because basically none of the existing caller provide a way to reclaim the allocated memory. So this is rather misleading and hard to evaluate for any benefits. I have checked some random users and none of them has added the flag with a specific justification. I suspect most of them just copied from other existing users and others just thought it might be a good idea to use without any measuring. This suggests that GFP_TEMPORARY just motivates for cargo cult usage without any reasoning. I believe that our gfp flags are quite complex already and especially those with highlevel semantic should be clearly defined to prevent from confusion and abuse. Therefore I propose dropping GFP_TEMPORARY and replace all existing users to simply use GFP_KERNEL. Please note that SLAB users with shrinkers will still get __GFP_RECLAIMABLE heuristic and so they will be placed properly for memory fragmentation prevention. I can see reasons we might want some gfp flag to reflect shorterm allocations but I propose starting from a clear semantic definition and only then add users with proper justification. This was been brought up before LSF this year by Matthew [1] and it turned out that GFP_TEMPORARY really doesn't have a clear semantic. It seems to be a heuristic without any measured advantage for most (if not all) its current users. The follow up discussion has revealed that opinions on what might be temporary allocation differ a lot between developers. So rather than trying to tweak existing users into a semantic which they haven't expected I propose to simply remove the flag and start from scratch if we really need a semantic for short term allocations.

Previously the part behind "perf-" was interpreted as an internal perf command. If the suffix could not be handled, the execution was stopped. This makes it impossible to launch perf binaries that got renamed to have the `perf-` prefix. This is e.g. the case for appimages (e.g. "perf-x86_64.AppImage"), but would also apply to all other scenarios where users symlink or rename perf themselves: Status quo with the broken behavior: $ ln -s ./perf ./perf-custom-suffix $ ./perf-custom-suffix list cannot handle custom-suffix internally$ Also note the missing newline at the end of the error message.

The bpf map sockmap supports adding programs via attach commands. This patch adds the detach command to keep the API symmetric and allow users to remove previously added programs. Otherwise the user would have to delete the map and re-add it to get in this state. This also adds a series of additional tests to capture detach operation and also attaching/detaching invalid prog types. API note: socks will run (or not run) programs depending on the state of the map at the time the sock is added. We do not for example walk the map and remove programs from previously attached socks.

With the addition of hugetlbfs support in memfd_create, the memfd selftests should verify correct functionality with hugetlbfs. Instead of writing a separate memfd hugetlbfs test, modify the memfd_test program to take an optional argument 'hugetlbfs'. If the hugetlbfs argument is specified, basic memfd_create functionality will be exercised on hugetlbfs. If hugetlbfs is not specified, the current functionality of the test is unchanged. Note that many of the tests in memfd_test test file sealing operations. hugetlbfs does not support file sealing, therefore for hugetlbfs all sealing related tests are skipped. In order to test on hugetlbfs, there needs to be preallocated huge pages. A new script (run_tests) is added. This script will first run the existing memfd_create tests. It will then, attempt to allocate the required number of huge pages before running the hugetlbfs test. At the end of testing, it will release any huge pages allocated for testing purposes.

This will retry the UFFDIO_COPY/ZEROPAGE to verify it returns -EEXIST at the first invocation and then later every 10 seconds. In the filebacked MAP_SHARED case this also verifies the -EEXIST triggered in the filesystem pagecache insertion, if the offset in the file was not a hole. shmem MAP_SHARED tries to index the newly allocated pagecache in the radix tree before checking the pagetable so it doesn't need any assistance to exercise that case. hugetlbfs checks the pmd to be not none before trying to index the hugetlbfs page in the radix tree, so it requires to run UFFDIO_COPY into an alias mapping (the alternative would be to use MADV_DONTNEED to only zap the pagetables, but that doesn't work on hugetlbfs).

'Object code reading' test always fails on powerpc guest. Two reasons for the failure are: 1. When elf section is too big (size beyond 'unsigned int' max value). objdump fails to disassemble from such section. This was fixed with commit 0f6329bd7fc ("binutils/objdump: Fix disassemble for huge elf sections") in binutils. 2. When the sample is from hypervisor. Hypervisor symbols can not be resolved within guest and thus thread__find_addr_map() fails for such symbols. Fix this by ignoring hypervisor symbols in the test.

With two new methods, one to find the first match, returning its syscall id and its index in whatever internal database it keeps the syscall into, then one to find the next match, if any. Implemented only on arches where we actually read the syscall table from the kernel sources, i.e. x86-64 for now, all the others use the libaudit method for which this returns -1, i.e. just stubs were added, with the actual implementation using whatever libaudit functions for matching that may be available.

The msg_zerocopy test defines SO_ZEROCOPY if necessary, but its value is inconsistent with the one in asm-generic.h. Correct that. Also convert one error to a warning. When the test is complete, report throughput and close cleanly even if the process did not wait for all completions. Reported-by:

Kbuild conventionally uses $(shell cd ... && /bin/pwd) idiom to get the absolute path of the directory because GNU Make 3.80, the minimal supported version at that time, did not support $(abspath ...) or $(realpath ...). Commit 37d69ee3 ("docs: bump minimal GNU Make version to 3.81") dropped the GNU Make 3.80 support, so we are now allowed to use those make-builtin helpers. This conversion will provide better portability without relying on the pwd command or its location /bin/pwd. I am intentionally using $(realpath ...) instead $(abspath ...) in some places. The difference between the two is $(realpath ...) returns an empty string if the given path does not exist. It is convenient in places where we need to error-out if the makefile fails to create an output directory. Signed-off-by:

mmio_flush_range() suffers from a lack of clearly-defined semantics, and is somewhat ambiguous to port to other architectures where the scope of the writeback implied by "flush" and ordering might matter, but MMIO would tend to imply non-cacheable anyway. Per the rationale in 67a3e8fe ("nd_blk: change aperture mapping from WC to WB"), the only existing use is actually to invalidate clean cache lines for ARCH_MEMREMAP_PMEM type mappings *without* writeback. Since the recent cleanup of the pmem API, that also now happens to be the exact purpose of arch_invalidate_pmem(), which would be a far more well-defined tool for the job. Rather than risk potentially inconsistent implementations of mmio_flush_range() for the sake of one callsite, streamline things by removing it entirely and instead move the ARCH_MEMREMAP_PMEM related definitions up to the libnvdimm level, so they can be shared by NFIT as well. This allows NFIT to be enabled for arm64. Signed-off-by:

This patch adds recovery from false busy state on concurrent attach operation. The procedure of attach operation is as below. 1) Find an unused port in /sys/devices/platform/vhci_hcd/status. (userspace) 2) Request attach found port to driver through /sys/devices/platform/vhci_hcd/attach. (userspace) 3) Lock table, reserve requested port and unlock table. (vhci driver) Attaching more than one remote devices concurrently, same unused port number will be found in step-1. Then one request will succeed and others will fail even though there are some unused ports. With this patch, driver returns EBUSY when requested port has already been used. In this case, attach command retries from step-1: finding another unused port. If there's no unused port, the attach operation will fail in step-1. Otherwise it retries automatically using another unused port. vhci-hcd's interface (only errno) is changed as following. Current errno New errno Condition EINVAL same as left specified port number is in invalid range EAGAIN same as left platform_get_drvdata() failed EINVAL same as left specified socket fd is not valid EINVAL EBUSY specified port status is not free The errno EBUSY was not used in userspace src/usbip_attach.c:import_device(). It is needed to distinguish the condition to be able to retry from other unrecoverable errors. It is possible to avoid this failure by introducing userspace exclusive control. But it's exaggerated for this special condition. The locking itself has done in driver. As an alternate solution, userspace doesn't specify port number, driver searches unused port and it returns port number to the userspace. With this solution, the interface is much different than this patch. Signed-off-by:

The branch history code has a loop detection function. With this, we can get the number of iterations by calculating the removed loops. While it would be nice for knowing the average cycles of iterations. This patch adds up the cycles in branch entries of removed loops and save the result to the next branch entry (e.g. branch entry A). Finally it will display the iteration number and average cycles at the "from" of branch entry A. For example: perf record -g -j any,save_type ./div perf report --branch-history --no-children --stdio --22.63%--main div.c:42 (RET CROSS_2M) compute_flag div.c:28 (cycles:2 iter:173115 avg_cycles:2) | --10.73%--compute_flag div.c:27 (RET CROSS_2M) rand rand.c:28 (cycles:1) rand rand.c:28 (RET CROSS_2M) __random random.c:298 (cycles:1) __random random.c:297 (COND_BWD CROSS_2M) __random random.c:295 (cycles:1) __random random.c:295 (COND_BWD CROSS_2M) __random random.c:295 (cycles:1) __random random.c:295 (RET CROSS_2M) Signed-off-by:Yao Jin <yao.jin@linux.intel.com> Reviewed-by:
