mm: generalize ARCH_HAS_CACHE_LINE_SIZE

2021-05-05T18:27:25Z

Patch series "mm: some config cleanups", v2. This series contains config cleanup patches which reduces code duplication across platforms and also improves maintainability. There is no functional change intended with this series. This patch (of 6): ARCH_HAS_CACHE_LINE_SIZE config has duplicate definitions on platforms that subscribe it. Instead, just make it a generic option which can be selected on applicable platforms. This change reduces code duplication and makes it cleaner.

Pull asm-generic cross-architecture timer cleanup from Arnd Bergmann: "This cleans up two ancient timer features that were never completed in the past, CONFIG_GENERIC_CLOCKEVENTS and CONFIG_ARCH_USES_GETTIMEOFFSET. There was only one user left for the ARCH_USES_GETTIMEOFFSET variant of clocksource implementations, the ARM EBSA110 platform. Rather than changing to use modern timekeeping, we remove the platform entirely as Russell no longer uses his machine and nobody else seems to have one any more. The conditional code for using arch_gettimeoffset() is removed as a result. For CONFIG_GENERIC_CLOCKEVENTS, there are still a couple of platforms not using clockevent drivers: parisc, ia64, most of m68k, and one Arm platform. These all do timer ticks slighly differently, and this gets cleaned up to the point they at least all call the same helper function. Instead of most platforms using 'select GENERIC_CLOCKEVENTS' in Kconfig, the polarity is now reversed, with the few remaining ones selecting LEGACY_TIMER_TICK instead" * tag 'asm-generic-timers-5.11' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arnd/asm-generic: timekeeping: default GENERIC_CLOCKEVENTS to enabled timekeeping: remove xtime_update m68k: remove timer_interrupt() function m68k: change remaining timers to legacy_timer_tick m68k: m68328: use legacy_timer_tick() m68k: sun3/sun3c: use legacy_timer_tick m68k: split heartbeat out of timer function m68k: coldfire: use legacy_timer_tick() parisc: use legacy_timer_tick ARM: rpc: use legacy_timer_tick ia64: convert to legacy_timer_tick timekeeping: add CONFIG_LEGACY_TIMER_TICK timekeeping: remove arch_gettimeoffset net: remove am79c961a driver ARM: remove ebsa110 platform

arc: use FLATMEM with freeing of unused memory map instead of DISCONTIGMEM

2020-12-15T20:13:42Z

Currently ARC uses DISCONTIGMEM to cope with sparse physical memory address space on systems with 2 memory banks. While DISCONTIGMEM avoids wasting memory on unpopulated memory map, it adds both memory and CPU overhead relatively to FLATMEM. Moreover, DISCONTINGMEM is generally considered deprecated. The obvious replacement for DISCONTIGMEM would be SPARSEMEM, but it is also less efficient than FLATMEM in pfn_to_page() and page_to_pfn() conversions. Besides it requires tuning of SECTION_SIZE which is not trivial for possible ARC memory configuration. Since the memory map for both banks is always allocated from the "lowmem" bank, it is possible to use FLATMEM for two-bank configuration and simply free the unused hole in the memory map. All is required for that is to provide ARC-specific pfn_valid() that will take into account actual physical memory configuration and define HAVE_ARCH_PFN_VALID. The resulting kernel image configured with defconfig + HIGHMEM=y is smaller: $ size a/vmlinux b/vmlinux text data bss dec hex filename 4673503 1245456 279756 6198715 5e95bb a/vmlinux 4658706 1246864 279756 6185326 5e616e b/vmlinux $ ./scripts/bloat-o-meter a/vmlinux b/vmlinux add/remove: 28/30 grow/shrink: 42/399 up/down: 10986/-29025 (-18039) ...

arc/mm/highmem: Use generic kmap atomic implementation

2020-11-06T22:14:55Z

Adopt the map ordering to match the other architectures and the generic code. Also make the maximum entries limited and not dependend on the number of CPUs. With the original implementation did the following calculation: nr_slots = mapsize >> PAGE_SHIFT; The results in either 512 or 1024 total slots depending on configuration. The total slots have to be divided by the number of CPUs to get the number of slots per CPU (former KM_TYPE_NR). ARC supports up to 4k CPUs, so this just falls apart in random ways depending on the number of CPUs and the actual kmap (atomic) nesting. The comment in highmem.c: * - fixmap anyhow needs a limited number of mappings. So 2M kvaddr == 256 PTE * slots across NR_CPUS would be more than sufficient (generic code defines * KM_TYPE_NR as 20). is just wrong. KM_TYPE_NR (now KM_MAX_IDX) is the number of slots per CPU because kmap_local/atomic() needs to support nested mappings (thread, softirq, interrupt). While KM_MAX_IDX might be overestimated, the above reasoning is just wrong and clearly the highmem code was never tested with any system with more than a few CPUs. Use the default number of slots and fail the build when it does not fit. Randomly failing at runtime is not a really good option.

timekeeping: default GENERIC_CLOCKEVENTS to enabled

2020-10-30T20:57:07Z

Almost all machines use GENERIC_CLOCKEVENTS, so it feels wrong to require each one to select that symbol manually. Instead, enable it whenever CONFIG_LEGACY_TIMER_TICK is disabled as a simplification. It should be possible to select both GENERIC_CLOCKEVENTS and LEGACY_TIMER_TICK from an architecture now and decide at runtime between the two. For the clockevents arch-support.txt file, this means that additional architectures are marked as TODO when they have at least one machine that still uses LEGACY_TIMER_TICK, rather than being marked 'ok' when at least one machine has been converted. This means that both m68k and arm (for riscpc) revert to TODO. At this point, we could just always enable CONFIG_GENERIC_CLOCKEVENTS rather than leaving it off when not needed. I built an m68k defconfig kernel (using gcc-10.1.0) and found that this would add around 5.5KB in kernel image size: text data bss dec hex filename 3861936 1092236 196656 5150828 4e986c obj-m68k/vmlinux-no-clockevent 3866201 1093832 196184 5156217 4ead79 obj-m68k/vmlinux-clockevent On Arm (MACH_RPC), that difference appears to be twice as large, around 11KB on top of an 6MB vmlinux.
