Subject: [PATCH v2 07/23] mips: update_mmu_cache() can replace __update_tlb()

Don't make update_mmu_cache() a wrapper around __update_tlb(): call it
directly, and use the ptep (or pmdp) provided by the caller, instead of
re-calling pte_offset_map() - which would raise a question of whether a
pte_unmap() is needed to balance it.

Check whether the "ptep" provided by the caller is actually the pmdp,
instead of testing pmd_huge(): or test pmd_huge() too and warn if it
disagrees? This is "hazardous" territory: needs review and testing.

Subject: [PATCH v2 07/23 fix] mips: update_mmu_cache() can replace __update_tlb(): fix

I expect this to fix the
arch/mips/mm/tlb-r4k.c:300:16: warning: variable 'pmdp' set but not used
reported by the kernel test robot; but I am uncomfortable rearranging
lines in this tlb_probe_hazard() area, and would be glad for review and
testing by someone familiar with mips - thanks in advance!

I just bisected a crash while powering down a MIPS machine in QEMU to
this change as commit 8044511d3893 ("mips: update_mmu_cache() can
replace __update_tlb()") in linux-next. Unfortunately, I can still
reproduce it with the existing fix you have for this change on the
mailing list, which is present in next-20230614.

I can reproduce it with the GCC 13.1.0 on kernel.org [1].

Thank you, Nathan, that's very helpful indeed. This patch certainly knew
that it wanted testing, and I'm glad to hear that it is now seeing some.

While powering down? The messages below look like it was just coming up,
but no doubt that's because you were bisecting (or because I'm unfamiliar
with what messages to expect there). It's probably irrelevant information,
but I wonder whether the (V)machine worked well enough for a while before
you first powered down and spotted the problem, or whether it's never got
much further than trying to run init (busybox)? I'm trying to get a feel
for whether the problem occurs under common or uncommon conditions.

Right, that later fix was only for a build warning, nothing functional
(or at least I hoped that it wasn't making any functional difference).

Thanks a lot for the detailed instructions below: unfortunately, those
would draw me into a realm of testing I've never needed to enter before,
so a lot of time spent on setup and learning. Usually, I just stare at
the source.

What this probably says is that I should revert most my cleanup there,
and keep as close to the existing code as possible. But some change is
needed, and I may need to understand (or have a good guess at) what was
going wrong, to decide what kind of retreat will be successful.

Back to the source for a while: I hope I'll find examples in nearby MIPS
kernel source (and git history), which will hint at the right way forward.
Then send you a patch against next-20230614 to try, when I'm reasonably
confident that it's enough to satisfy my purpose, but likely not to waste
your time.

Thanks, until later,
Hugh

I'm going to take advantage of your good nature by attaching
two alternative patches, either to go on top of next-20230614.

mips1.patch,
arch/mips/mm/tlb-r4k.c | 12 +-----------
1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 11 deletions(-)

is by far my favourite. I couldn't see anything wrong with what's
already there for mips, but it seems possible that (though I didn't
find it) somewhere calls update_mmu_cache_pmd() on a page table. So
mips1.patch restores the pmd_huge() check, and cleans up further by
removing the silly pgdp, p4dp, pudp, pmdp stuff: the pointer has now
been passed in by the caller, why walk the tree again? I should have
done it this way before.

But if that doesn't work, then I'm afraid it will have to be
mips2.patch,
arch/mips/include/asm/pgtable.h | 15 ++++++++++++---
arch/mips/mm/tlb-r3k.c | 5 ++---
arch/mips/mm/tlb-r4k.c | 27 ++++++++++++++++++---------
3 files changed, 32 insertions(+), 15 deletions(-)

which reverts all of the original patch and its build warning fix,
and does a pte_unmap() to balance the silly pte_offset_map() there;
with an apologetic comment for this being about the only place in
the tree where I have no idea what to do if ptep were NULL.

I do hope that you find the first fixes the breakage; but if not, then
I even more fervently hope that the second will, despite my hating it.
Touch wood for the first, fingers crossed for the second, thanks,

Hugh

Ugh sorry, I have been looking into too many bugs lately and got my
wires crossed :) this is indeed a problem when running init (which is
busybox, this is a simple Buildroot file system).

I hate to be the bearer of bad news but the first patch did not fix the
breakage, I see the same issue.

Thankfully, the second one does. Thanks for the quick and thoughtful
responses!

Hurrah!

Thanks a lot, Nathan. I'll set aside my disappointment and curiosity,
clearly I'm not going to have much of a future as a MIPS programmer.

I must take a break, then rush Andrew the second patch, well, not
exactly that second patch, since most of that is revert: I'll just
send the few lines of replacement patch (with a new Subject line, as
update_mmu_cache() goes back to being separate from __update_tlb()).

Unless you object, I'll include a Tested-by: you. I realize that
your testing is limited to seeing it running; but that's true of
most of the testing at this stage - it gets to be more interesting
when the patch that adds the rcu_read_lock() and rcu_read_unlock()
is added on top later.

Thanks again,
Hugh

Subject: [PATCH v2 07/23 replacement] mips: add pte_unmap() to balance pte_offset_map()

To keep balance in future, __update_tlb() remember to pte_unmap() after
pte_offset_map(). This is an odd case, since the caller has already done
pte_offset_map_lock(), then mips forgets the address and recalculates it;
but my two naive attempts to clean that up did more harm than good.

Andrew, please replace my mips patch, and its build warning fix patch,
in mm-unstable by this less ambitious but working replacement - thanks.

There is another problem, likely caused by khugepaged, happened multiple times. But I don't think it's related to your series, just FYI.

In case anyone plans to try to fix this - the problem goes back to at
least 5.15 stable. My (educated) guess is that nobody complained about
it because all the testing is done in QEMU, which does NOT detect
conflicting TLBs. This means the verification of the fix would need to
be on a real piece of h/w or an updated QEMU.

In target/mips/tcg/sysemu/tlb_helper.c:

static void r4k_fill_tlb(CPUMIPSState *env, int idx)
{
r4k_tlb_t *tlb;
uint64_t mask = env->CP0_PageMask >> (TARGET_PAGE_BITS + 1);

/* XXX: detect conflicting TLBs and raise a MCHECK exception when needed */
