lib/min_heap: introduce non-inline versions of min heap API functions

2024-11-06T01:12:34Z

Patch series "Enhance min heap API with non-inline functions and optimizations", v2. Add non-inline versions of the min heap API functions in lib/min_heap.c and updates all users outside of kernel/events/core.c to use these non-inline versions. To mitigate the performance impact of indirect function calls caused by the non-inline versions of the swap and compare functions, a builtin swap has been introduced that swaps elements based on their size. Additionally, it micro-optimizes the efficiency of the min heap by pre-scaling the counter, following the same approach as in lib/sort.c. Documentation for the min heap API has also been added to the core-api section. This patch (of 10): All current min heap API functions are marked with '__always_inline'. However, as the number of users increases, inlining these functions everywhere leads to a increase in kernel size. In performance-critical paths, such as when perf events are enabled and min heap functions are called on every context switch, it is important to retain the inline versions for optimal performance. To balance this, the original inline functions are kept, and additional non-inline versions of the functions have been added in lib/min_heap.c.

lib/Makefile: make union-find compilation conditional on CONFIG_CPUSETS

2024-11-06T01:12:32Z

Currently, cpuset is the only user of the union-find implementation. Compiling union-find in all configurations unnecessarily increases the code size when building the kernel without cgroup support. Modify the build system to compile union-find only when CONFIG_CPUSETS is enabled.

lib: packing: add KUnit tests adapted from selftests

2024-10-03T22:32:04Z

Add 24 simple KUnit tests for the lib/packing.c pack() and unpack() APIs. The first 16 tests exercise all combinations of quirks with a simple magic number value on a 16-byte buffer. The remaining 8 tests cover non-multiple-of-4 buffer sizes. These tests were originally written by Vladimir as simple selftest functions. I adapted them to KUnit, refactoring them into a table driven approach. This will aid in adding additional tests in the future.

dim: make DIMLIB dependent on NET

2024-06-26T00:15:06Z

DIMLIB's capabilities are supplied by the dim, net_dim, and rdma_dim objects, and dim's interfaces solely act as a base for net_dim and rdma_dim and are not explicitly used anywhere else. rdma_dim is utilized by the infiniband driver, while net_dim is for network devices, excluding the soc/fsl driver. In this patch, net_dim relies on some NET's interfaces, thus DIMLIB needs to explicitly depend on the NET Kconfig. The soc/fsl driver uses the functions provided by net_dim, so it also needs to depend on NET.

cpumask: limit FORCE_NR_CPUS to just the UP case

2024-06-18T16:00:04Z

Hardcoding the number of CPUs at compile time does improve code generation, but if you get it wrong the result will be confusion. We already limited this earlier to only "experts" (see commit fe5759d5bfda "cpumask: limit visibility of FORCE_NR_CPUS"), but with distro kernel configs often having EXPERT enabled, that turns out to not be much of a limit. To quote the philosophers at Disney: "Everyone can be an expert. And when everyone's an expert, no one will be". There's a runtime warning if you then set nr_cpus to anything but the forced number, but apparently that can be ignored too [1] and by then it's pretty much too late anyway. If we had some real way to limit this to "embedded only", maybe it would be worth it, but let's see if anybody even notices that the option is gone. We need to simplify kernel configuration anyway.

lib: Allow for the DIM library to be modular

2024-05-07T23:42:45Z

Allow the Dynamic Interrupt Moderation (DIM) library to be built as a module. This is particularly useful in an Android GKI (Google Kernel Image) configuration where everything is built as a module, including Ethernet controller drivers. Having to build DIMLIB into the kernel image with potentially no user is wasteful.

The entirety of pci_iomap.c is guarded by an #ifdef CONFIG_PCI. It, consequently, does not belong to lib/ because it is not generic infrastructure.

lib/stackdepot: use fixed-sized slots for stack records

2023-12-11T00:51:44Z

Instead of storing stack records in stack depot pools one right after another, use fixed-sized slots. Add a new Kconfig option STACKDEPOT_MAX_FRAMES that allows to select the size of the slot in frames. Use 64 as the default value, which is the maximum stack trace size both KASAN and KMSAN use right now. Also add descriptions for other stack depot Kconfig options. This is preparatory patch for implementing the eviction of stack records from the stack depot.

Merge tag 'cxl-for-6.7' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/cxl/cxl

2023-11-05T02:20:36Z

Pull CXL (Compute Express Link) updates from Dan Williams: "The main new functionality this time is work to allow Linux to natively handle CXL link protocol errors signalled via PCIe AER for current generation CXL platforms. This required some enlightenment of the PCIe AER core to workaround the fact that current generation RCH (Restricted CXL Host) platforms physically hide topology details and registers via a mechanism called RCRB (Root Complex Register Block). The next major highlight is reworks to address bugs in parsing region configurations for next generation VH (Virtual Host) topologies. The old broken algorithm is replaced with a simpler one that significantly increases the number of region configurations supported by Linux. This is again relevant for error handling so that forward and reverse address translation of memory errors can be carried out by Linux for memory regions instantiated by platform firmware. As for other cross-tree work, the ACPI table parsing code has been refactored for reuse parsing the "CDAT" structure which is an ACPI-like data structure that is reported by CXL devices. That work is in preparation for v6.8 support for CXL QoS. Think of this as dynamic generation of NUMA node topology information generated by Linux rather than platform firmware. Lastly, a number of internal object lifetime issues have been resolved along with misc. fixes and feature updates (decoders_committed sysfs ABI). Summary: - Add support for RCH (Restricted CXL Host) Error recovery - Fix several region assembly bugs - Fix mem-device lifetime issues relative to the sanitize command and RCH topology. - Refactor ACPI table parsing for CDAT parsing re-use in preparation for CXL QOS support" * tag 'cxl-for-6.7' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/cxl/cxl: (50 commits) lib/fw_table: Remove acpi_parse_entries_array() export cxl/pci: Change CXL AER support check to use native AER cxl/hdm: Remove broken error path cxl/hdm: Fix && vs || bug acpi: Move common tables helper functions to common lib cxl: Add support for reading CXL switch CDAT table cxl: Add checksum verification to CDAT from CXL cxl: Export QTG ids from CFMWS to sysfs as qos_class attribute cxl: Add decoders_committed sysfs attribute to cxl_port cxl: Add cxl_decoders_committed() helper cxl/core/regs: Rework cxl_map_pmu_regs() to use map->dev for devm cxl/core/regs: Rename phys_addr in cxl_map_component_regs() PCI/AER: Unmask RCEC internal errors to enable RCH downstream port error handling PCI/AER: Forward RCH downstream port-detected errors to the CXL.mem dev handler cxl/pci: Disable root port interrupts in RCH mode cxl/pci: Add RCH downstream port error logging cxl/pci: Map RCH downstream AER registers for logging protocol errors cxl/pci: Update CXL error logging to use RAS register address PCI/AER: Refactor cper_print_aer() for use by CXL driver module cxl/pci: Add RCH downstream port AER register discovery ...
