From 28961998f858114e51d2ae862065b858afcfa2b2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ira Weiny Date: Tue, 4 May 2021 18:40:03 -0700 Subject: iov_iter: lift memzero_page() to highmem.h Patch series "btrfs: Convert kmap/memset/kunmap to memzero_user()". Lifting memzero_user(), convert it to kmap_local_page() and then use it in btrfs. This patch (of 3): memzero_page() can replace the kmap/memset/kunmap pattern in other places in the code. While zero_user() has the same interface it is not the same call and its use should be limited and some of those calls may be better converted from zero_user() to memzero_page().[1] But that is not addressed in this series. Lift memzero_page() to highmem.

We have observed that mostly-idle systems with KFENCE enabled wake up otherwise idle CPUs, preventing such to enter a lower power state. Debugging revealed that KFENCE spends too much active time in toggle_allocation_gate(). While the first version of KFENCE was using all the right bits to be scheduling optimal, and thus power efficient, by simply using wait_event() + wake_up(), that code was unfortunately removed. As KFENCE was exposed to various different configs and tests, the scheduling optimal code slowly disappeared. First because of hung task warnings, and finally because of deadlocks when an allocation is made by timer code with debug objects enabled. Clearly, the "fixes" were not too friendly for devices that want to be power efficient. Therefore, let's try a little harder to fix the hung task and deadlock problems that we have with wait_event() + wake_up(), while remaining as scheduling friendly and power efficient as possible. Crucially, we need to defer the wake_up() to an irq_work, avoiding any potential for deadlock. The result with this series is that on the devices where we observed a power regression, power usage returns back to baseline levels. This patch (of 3): On mostly-idle systems, we have observed that toggle_allocation_gate() is a cause of frequent wake-ups, preventing an otherwise idle CPU to go into a lower power state. A late change in KFENCE's development, due to a potential deadlock [1], required changing the scheduling-friendly wait_event_timeout() and wake_up() to an open-coded wait-loop using schedule_timeout(). [1] https://lkml.kernel.org/r/000000000000c0645805b7f982e4@google.com To avoid unnecessary wake-ups, switch to using wait_event_timeout(). Unfortunately, we still cannot use a version with direct wake_up() in __kfence_alloc() due to the same potential for deadlock as in [1]. Instead, add a level of indirection via an irq_work that is scheduled if we determine that the kfence_timer requires a wake_up().
