um: Avoid marking pages with "changed protection"

2019-02-12T19:02:28Z

[ Upstream commit 8892d8545f2d0342b9c550defbfb165db237044b ] Changing protection is a very high cost operation in UML because in addition to an extra syscall it also interrupts mmap merge sequences generated by the tlb. While the condition is not particularly common it is worth avoiding. Signed-off-by: Anton Ivanov Signed-off-by: Richard Weinberger Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin

vmlinux.lds.h: Move LSM_TABLE into INIT_DATA

2018-10-11T03:40:21Z

Since the struct lsm_info table is not an initcall, we can just move it into INIT_DATA like all the other tables. Signed-off-by: Kees Cook Reviewed-by: Casey Schaufler Reviewed-by: John Johansen Reviewed-by: James Morris Signed-off-by: James Morris

__uml_initcall() is not used and .uml.initcall.init section is empty: $ grep -r '__uml_initcall(' arch/um/include/shared/init.h:#define __uml_initcall(fn) \ $ readelf -s ../umobj/linux | grep __uml_initcall 23214: 00000000603b75d8 0 NOTYPE GLOBAL DEFAULT 32 __uml_initcall_start 25337: 00000000603b75d8 0 NOTYPE GLOBAL DEFAULT 32 __uml_initcall_end So it is unnecessary.

time: Add an asm-generic/compat.h file

2018-04-19T11:28:51Z

We have a couple of files that try to include asm/compat.h on architectures where this is available. Those should generally use the higher-level linux/compat.h file, but that in turn fails to include asm/compat.h when CONFIG_COMPAT is disabled, unless we can provide that header on all architectures. This adds the asm/compat.h for all remaining architectures to simplify the dependencies. Architectures that are getting removed in linux-4.17 are not changed here, to avoid needless conflicts with the removal patches. Those architectures are broken by this patch, but we have already shown that they have no users. Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann

High Performance UML Vector Network Driver

2018-02-19T18:38:51Z

1. Provides infrastructure for vector IO using recvmmsg/sendmmsg. 1.1. Multi-message read. 1.2. Multi-message write. 1.3. Optimized queue support for multi-packet enqueue/dequeue. 1.4. BQL/DQL support. 2. Implements transports for several transports as well support for direct wiring of PWEs to NIC. Allows direct connection of VMs to host, other VMs and network devices with no switch in use. 2.1. Raw socket >4 times higher PPS and 10 times higher tcp RX than existing pcap based transport (> 4Gbit) 2.2. New tap transport using socket RX and tap xmit. Similar performance improvements (>4Gbit) 2.3. GRE transport - direct wiring to GRE PWE 2.4. L2TPv3 transport - direct wiring to L2TPv3 PWE 3. Tuning, performance and offload related setting support via ethtool. 4. Initial BPF support - used in tap/raw to avoid software looping 5. Scatter Gather support. 6. VNET and checksum offload support for raw socket transport. 7. TSO/GSO support where applicable or available 8. Migrates all error messages to netdevice_*() and rate limits them where needed.

Epoll based IRQ controller

2018-02-19T18:38:51Z

1. Removes the need to walk the IRQ/Device list to determine who triggered the IRQ. 2. Improves scalability (up to several times performance improvement for cases with 10s of devices). 3. Improves UML baseline IO performance for one disk + one NIC use case by up to 10%. 4. Introduces write poll triggered IRQs. 5. Prerequisite for introducing high performance mmesg family of functions in network IO. 6. Fixes RNG shutdown which was leaking a file descriptor Signed-off-by: Anton Ivanov Signed-off-by: Richard Weinberger
