[PATCH net-next v4 0/6] Add AF_XDP zero copy support

by Meghana Malladi

This series adds AF_XDP zero coppy support to icssg driver. Tests were performed on AM64x-EVM with xdpsock application [1]. A clear improvement is seen Transmit (txonly) and receive (rxdrop) for 64 byte packets. 1500 byte test seems to be limited by line rate (1G link) so no improvement seen there in packet rate Having some issue with l2fwd as the benchmarking numbers show 0 for 64 byte packets after forwading first batch packets and I am currently looking into it. AF_XDP performance using 64 byte packets in Kpps.

[PATCH v2] drm/sched: Fix deadlock in drm_sched_entity_kill_jobs_cb

by Pierre-Eric Pelloux-Prayer

The Mesa issue referenced below pointed out a possible deadlock: [ 1231.611031] Possible interrupt unsafe locking scenario: [ 1231.611033] CPU0 CPU1 [ 1231.611034] ---- ---- [ 1231.611035] lock(&xa->xa_lock#17); [ 1231.611038] local_irq_disable(); [ 1231.611039] lock(&fence->lock); [ 1231.611041] lock(&xa->xa_lock#17); [ 1231.611044] <Interrupt> [ 1231.611045] lock(&fence->lock); [ 1231.611047] *** DEADLOCK *** In this example, CPU0 would be any function accessing job->dependencies through the xa_* functions that doesn't disable interrupts (eg: drm_sched_job_add_dependency, drm_sched_entity_kill_jobs_cb). CPU1 is executing drm_sched_entity_kill_jobs_cb as a fence signalling callback so in an interrupt context. It will deadlock when trying to grab the xa_lock which is already held by CPU0. Replacing all xa_* usage by their xa_*_irq counterparts would fix this issue, but Christian pointed out another issue: dma_fence_signal takes fence.lock and so does dma_fence_add_callback. dma_fence_signal() // locks f1.lock -> drm_sched_entity_kill_jobs_cb() -> foreach dependencies -> dma_fence_add_callback() // locks f2.lock This will deadlock if f1 and f2 share the same spinlock. To fix both issues, the code iterating on dependencies and re-arming them is moved out to drm_sched_entity_kill_jobs_work.

[PATCH v5 0/9] vfio/pci: Allow MMIO regions to be exported through dma-buf

by Leon Romanovsky

Changelog: v5: * Rebased on top of v6.18-rc1. * Added more validation logic to make sure that DMA-BUF length doesn't overflow in various scenarios. * Hide kernel config from the users. * Fixed type conversion issue. DMA ranges are exposed with u64 length, but DMA-BUF uses "unsigned int" as a length for SG entries. * Added check to prevent from VFIO drivers which reports BAR size different from PCI, do not use DMA-BUF functionality. v4: https://lore.kernel.org/all/cover.1759070796.git.leon@kernel.org * Split pcim_p2pdma_provider() to two functions, one that initializes array of providers and another to return right provider pointer. v3: https://lore.kernel.org/all/cover.1758804980.git.leon@kernel.org * Changed pcim_p2pdma_enable() to be pcim_p2pdma_provider(). * Cache provider in vfio_pci_dma_buf struct instead of BAR index. * Removed misleading comment from pcim_p2pdma_provider(). * Moved MMIO check to be in pcim_p2pdma_provider(). v2: https://lore.kernel.org/all/cover.1757589589.git.leon@kernel.org/ * Added extra patch which adds new CONFIG, so next patches can reuse * it. * Squashed "PCI/P2PDMA: Remove redundant bus_offset from map state" into the other patch. * Fixed revoke calls to be aligned with true->false semantics. * Extended p2pdma_providers to be per-BAR and not global to whole * device. * Fixed possible race between dmabuf states and revoke. * Moved revoke to PCI BAR zap block. v1: https://lore.kernel.org/all/cover.1754311439.git.leon@kernel.org * Changed commit messages. * Reused DMA_ATTR_MMIO attribute. * Returned support for multiple DMA ranges per-dMABUF. v0: https://lore.kernel.org/all/cover.1753274085.git.leonro@nvidia.com --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Based on "[PATCH v6 00/16] dma-mapping: migrate to physical address-based API" https://lore.kernel.org/all/cover.1757423202.git.leonro@nvidia.com/ series. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- This series extends the VFIO PCI subsystem to support exporting MMIO regions from PCI device BARs as dma-buf objects, enabling safe sharing of non-struct page memory with controlled lifetime management. This allows RDMA and other subsystems to import dma-buf FDs and build them into memory regions for PCI P2P operations. The series supports a use case for SPDK where a NVMe device will be owned by SPDK through VFIO but interacting with a RDMA device. The RDMA device may directly access the NVMe CMB or directly manipulate the NVMe device's doorbell using PCI P2P. However, as a general mechanism, it can support many other scenarios with VFIO. This dmabuf approach can be usable by iommufd as well for generic and safe P2P mappings. In addition to the SPDK use-case mentioned above, the capability added in this patch series can also be useful when a buffer (located in device memory such as VRAM) needs to be shared between any two dGPU devices or instances (assuming one of them is bound to VFIO PCI) as long as they are P2P DMA compatible. The implementation provides a revocable attachment mechanism using dma-buf move operations. MMIO regions are normally pinned as BARs don't change physical addresses, but access is revoked when the VFIO device is closed or a PCI reset is issued. This ensures kernel self-defense against potentially hostile userspace. The series includes significant refactoring of the PCI P2PDMA subsystem to separate core P2P functionality from memory allocation features, making it more modular and suitable for VFIO use cases that don't need struct page support. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- The series is based originally on https://lore.kernel.org/all/20250307052248.405803-1-vivek.kasireddy@intel.c… but heavily rewritten to be based on DMA physical API. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- The WIP branch can be found here: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/leon/linux-rdma.git/log/?h=… Thanks Leon Romanovsky (7): PCI/P2PDMA: Separate the mmap() support from the core logic PCI/P2PDMA: Simplify bus address mapping API PCI/P2PDMA: Refactor to separate core P2P functionality from memory allocation PCI/P2PDMA: Export pci_p2pdma_map_type() function types: move phys_vec definition to common header vfio/pci: Enable peer-to-peer DMA transactions by default vfio/pci: Add dma-buf export support for MMIO regions Vivek Kasireddy (2): vfio: Export vfio device get and put registration helpers vfio/pci: Share the core device pointer while invoking feature functions block/blk-mq-dma.c | 7 +- drivers/iommu/dma-iommu.c | 4 +- drivers/pci/p2pdma.c | 175 ++++++++--- drivers/vfio/pci/Kconfig | 3 + drivers/vfio/pci/Makefile | 2 + drivers/vfio/pci/vfio_pci_config.c | 22 +- drivers/vfio/pci/vfio_pci_core.c | 63 ++-- drivers/vfio/pci/vfio_pci_dmabuf.c | 446 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ drivers/vfio/pci/vfio_pci_priv.h | 23 ++ drivers/vfio/vfio_main.c | 2 + include/linux/pci-p2pdma.h | 120 +++++--- include/linux/types.h | 5 + include/linux/vfio.h | 2 + include/linux/vfio_pci_core.h | 1 + include/uapi/linux/vfio.h | 25 ++ kernel/dma/direct.c | 4 +- mm/hmm.c | 2 +- 17 files changed, 785 insertions(+), 121 deletions(-) create mode 100644 drivers/vfio/pci/vfio_pci_dmabuf.c -- 2.51.0

How is that supposed to work? Should the exporter fill in the xarray with values? That clearly needs more description.

Help me out here; if you pass a u32 for a u64, doesn't the C standard guarantee that the higher, unused 32 bits will be 0?

[PATCH AUTOSEL 6.17] drm/xe: improve dma-resv handling for backup object

by Sasha Levin

From: Matthew Auld <matthew.auld(a)intel.com> [ Upstream commit edb1745fc618ba8ef63a45ce3ae60de1bdf29231 ] Since the dma-resv is shared we don't need to reserve and add a fence slot fence twice, plus no need to loop through the dependencies. Signed-off-by: Matthew Auld <matthew.auld(a)intel.com> Cc: Thomas Hellström <thomas.hellstrom(a)linux.intel.com> Cc: Matthew Brost <matthew.brost(a)intel.com> Reviewed-by: Jonathan Cavitt <jonathan.cavitt(a)intel.com> Reviewed-by: Thomas Hellström <thomas.hellstrom(a)linux.intel.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250829164715.720735-2-matthew.auld@intel.com Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin <sashal(a)kernel.org> --- LLM Generated explanations, may be completely bogus: YES Explanation - What it fixes - Removes redundant dma-resv operations when a backup BO shares the same reservation object as the original BO, preventing the same fence from being reserved/added twice to the same `dma_resv`. - Avoids scanning the same dependency set twice when source and destination BOs share the same `dma_resv`. - Why the change is correct - The backup object is created to share the parent’s reservation object, so a single reserve/add is sufficient: - The backup BO is initialized with the parent’s resv: `drivers/gpu/drm/xe/xe_bo.c:1309` (`xe_bo_init_locked(..., bo->ttm.base.resv, ...)`), ensuring `bo->ttm.base.resv == backup->ttm.base.resv`. - The patch adds an explicit invariant check to document and enforce this: `drivers/gpu/drm/xe/xe_bo.c:1225` (`xe_assert(xe, bo->ttm.base.resv == backup->ttm.base.resv)`). - With shared `dma_resv`, adding the same fence twice is at best redundant (wasting fence slots and memory) and at worst error-prone. Reserving fence slots only once and adding the fence once is the correct behavior. - Specific code changes and effects - Evict path (GPU migration copy case): - Before: reserves and adds fence on both `bo->ttm.base.resv` and `backup->ttm.base.resv`. - After: reserves and adds exactly once, guarded by the shared-resv assertion. - See single reserve and add: `drivers/gpu/drm/xe/xe_bo.c:1226` (reserve) and `drivers/gpu/drm/xe/xe_bo.c:1237` (add fence). This is the core fix; the removed second reserve/add on the backup is the redundant part eliminated. - Restore path (migration copy back): - Same simplification: reserve once, add once on the shared `dma_resv`. - See single reserve and add: `drivers/gpu/drm/xe/xe_bo.c:1375` (reserve) and `drivers/gpu/drm/xe/xe_bo.c:1387` (add fence). - Dependency handling in migrate: - Before: added deps for both src and dst based only on `src_bo != dst_bo`. - After: only add dst deps if the resv objects differ, avoiding double-walking the same `dma_resv`. - See updated condition: `drivers/gpu/drm/xe/xe_migrate.c:932` (`src_bo->ttm.base.resv != dst_bo->ttm.base.resv`). - User-visible impact without the patch - Duplicate `dma_resv_add_fence()` calls on the same reservation object can: - Consume extra shared-fence slots and memory. - Inflate dependency lists, causing unnecessary scheduler waits and overhead. - Increase failure likelihood of `dma_resv_reserve_fences()` under memory pressure. - These paths are exercised during suspend/resume flows of pinned VRAM BOs (evict/restore), so reliability and performance in power transitions can be affected. - Scope and risk - Small, focused changes localized to the Intel Xe driver migration/evict/restore paths: - Files: `drivers/gpu/drm/xe/xe_bo.c`, `drivers/gpu/drm/xe/xe_migrate.c`. - No API changes or architectural refactors; logic strictly reduces redundant operations. - The `xe_assert` acts as a safety net to catch unexpected non-shared `resv` usage; normal runtime behavior is unchanged when the invariant holds. - The CPU copy fallback paths are untouched. - Stable backport considerations - This is a clear correctness and robustness fix, not a feature. - Low regression risk if the stable branch also creates the backup BO with the parent’s `dma_resv` (as shown by the use of `xe_bo_init_locked(..., bo->ttm.base.resv, ...)` in `drivers/gpu/drm/xe/xe_bo.c:1309`). - If a stable branch diverges and the backup BO does not share the resv, this patch would need adjustment (i.e., keep dual reserve/add in that case). The added `xe_assert` helps surface such mismatches during testing. Conclusion: This commit fixes a real bug (duplicate fence reserve/add and duplicate dependency scanning on a shared `dma_resv`) with a minimal, well-scoped change. It aligns with stable rules (important bugfix, low risk, contained), so it should be backported. drivers/gpu/drm/xe/xe_bo.c | 13 +------------ drivers/gpu/drm/xe/xe_migrate.c | 2 +- 2 files changed, 2 insertions(+), 13 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/gpu/drm/xe/xe_bo.c b/drivers/gpu/drm/xe/xe_bo.c index d07e23eb1a54d..5a61441d68af5 100644 --- a/drivers/gpu/drm/xe/xe_bo.c +++ b/drivers/gpu/drm/xe/xe_bo.c @@ -1242,14 +1242,11 @@ int xe_bo_evict_pinned(struct xe_bo *bo) else migrate = mem_type_to_migrate(xe, bo->ttm.resource->mem_type); + xe_assert(xe, bo->ttm.base.resv == backup->ttm.base.resv); ret = dma_resv_reserve_fences(bo->ttm.base.resv, 1); if (ret) goto out_backup; - ret = dma_resv_reserve_fences(backup->ttm.base.resv, 1); - if (ret) - goto out_backup; - fence = xe_migrate_copy(migrate, bo, backup, bo->ttm.resource, backup->ttm.resource, false); if (IS_ERR(fence)) { @@ -1259,8 +1256,6 @@ int xe_bo_evict_pinned(struct xe_bo *bo) dma_resv_add_fence(bo->ttm.base.resv, fence, DMA_RESV_USAGE_KERNEL); - dma_resv_add_fence(backup->ttm.base.resv, fence, - DMA_RESV_USAGE_KERNEL); dma_fence_put(fence); } else { ret = xe_bo_vmap(backup); @@ -1338,10 +1333,6 @@ int xe_bo_restore_pinned(struct xe_bo *bo) if (ret) goto out_unlock_bo; - ret = dma_resv_reserve_fences(backup->ttm.base.resv, 1); - if (ret) - goto out_unlock_bo; - fence = xe_migrate_copy(migrate, backup, bo, backup->ttm.resource, bo->ttm.resource, false); @@ -1352,8 +1343,6 @@ int xe_bo_restore_pinned(struct xe_bo *bo) dma_resv_add_fence(bo->ttm.base.resv, fence, DMA_RESV_USAGE_KERNEL); - dma_resv_add_fence(backup->ttm.base.resv, fence, - DMA_RESV_USAGE_KERNEL); dma_fence_put(fence); } else { ret = xe_bo_vmap(backup); diff --git a/drivers/gpu/drm/xe/xe_migrate.c b/drivers/gpu/drm/xe/xe_migrate.c index 2a627ed64b8f8..ba9b8590eccb2 100644 --- a/drivers/gpu/drm/xe/xe_migrate.c +++ b/drivers/gpu/drm/xe/xe_migrate.c @@ -901,7 +901,7 @@ struct dma_fence *xe_migrate_copy(struct xe_migrate *m, if (!fence) { err = xe_sched_job_add_deps(job, src_bo->ttm.base.resv, DMA_RESV_USAGE_BOOKKEEP); - if (!err && src_bo != dst_bo) + if (!err && src_bo->ttm.base.resv != dst_bo->ttm.base.resv) err = xe_sched_job_add_deps(job, dst_bo->ttm.base.resv, DMA_RESV_USAGE_BOOKKEEP); if (err) -- 2.51.0
