patch #1: clarify the overflow issue of sysfs pagebuf, and Move the
presence of BUILD_BUG_ON to more sensible place.
patch #2: move the interface that exists under
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/topology/ to the more logical
Documentation/ABI/ file that can be properly parsed and
displayed to the user space.
these two patches are a follow-up to Greg's comments in the below threads:

Wysocki, Peter Zijlstra, Valentin Schneider, Dave Hansen, Daniel Bristot de Oliveira Both numa node and cpu use cpu bitmap like 3,ffffffff to expose hardware topology. When cpu number is large, the page buffer of sysfs will over- flow. This doesn't really happen nowadays as the maximum NR_CPUS is 8196 for X86_64 and 4096 for ARM64 since 8196 * 9 / 32 = 2305 is still smaller than 4KB page size. So the existing BUILD_BUG_ON() in drivers/base/node.c is pretty much preventing future problems similar with Y2K when hardware gets more and more CPUs. On the other hand, it should be more sensible to move the guard to common code which can protect both cpu and numa: /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/topology/die_cpus etc. /sys/devices/system/node/node0/cpumap etc. Topology bitmap mask strings shouldn't be larger than PAGE_SIZE as lstopo and numactl depend on them. But other ABIs exposing cpu lists are not really used by common applications, so this patch also marks those lists could be trimmed as there is no any guarantee those lists are always less than PAGE_SIZE especially a list could be like this: 0, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11... etc. Signed-off-by: Tian Tao <tiantao6@hisilicon.com> Signed-off-by: Barry Song <song.bao.hua@hisilicon.com> Cc: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org> Cc: "Rafael J.

I think it's pretty arguable that truncating output on a real system is an ABI break. Doing this would make the interface rather useless.

There is a real way to get > PAGE_SIZE out of a sysfs file. The LED developers had to do this when they ran into this same exact problem. Make it a binary sysfs file and promise to NEVER create such a file again in the future :) thanks, gre gk-h ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 16+ messages in thread

This kind of cpu list ABIs have been there for many years but have never been documented well. We have two ABIs: xxx_cpus - in format like 3333333333 xxx_cpus_list - in format like 0,3,5,7,9,11,13.... xxx_cpus_list is another human-readable version of xxx_cpus. It doesn't include any more useful information than xxx_cpus. xxx_cpus won't overflow based on BUILD_BUG_ON and maximum NR_CPUS in kconfig nowadays. if people all agree the trimmed list is a break of ABI, I think we may totally remove this list. For these days, this list probably has never overflowed but literally this could happen. thoughts? Thanks Barry ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 16+ messages in thread

From what Greg said, it sounds like removing the BUILD_BUG_ON(), making it a binary sysfs file, and making it support arbitrary lengths is the way to go. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 16+ messages in thread

I am actually more concerned on xxx_cpus_list than xxx_cpus. xxx_cpus has never overflowed. Though there is a BUILD_BUG_ON(), but the maximum NR_CPUS is 8096, it is still far from overflow. 8096 /32 * 9 = 2277 as 2277 < 4096 While NR_CPUS gets to ~14500, for a 4KB page, xxx_cpus will overflow. But I don't know when hardware will reach there. If we reach there, the existing code to describe topology and schedule tasks might also need rework. On the other hand, lscpu, hwloc, numactl etc are using the existing hex bitmap ABI: $ strace lscpu 2>&1 | grep topology faccessat(AT_FDCWD, "/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/topology/thread_siblings", F_OK) = 0 openat(AT_FDCWD, "/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/topology/thread_siblings", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 3 openat(AT_FDCWD, "/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/topology/core_siblings", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 3 faccessat(AT_FDCWD, "/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/topology/book_siblings", F_OK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) faccessat(AT_FDCWD, "/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/topology/thread_siblings", F_OK) = 0 openat(AT_FDCWD, ... $ strace numactl --hardware 2>&1 | grep cpu openat(AT_FDCWD, "/sys/devices/system/cpu", O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK|O_DIRECTORY|O_CLOEXEC) = 3 openat(AT_FDCWD, "/sys/devices/system/node/node0/cpumap", O_RDONLY) = 3 openat(AT_FDCWD, "/sys/devices/system/node/node1/cpumap", O_RDONLY) = 3 openat(AT_FDCWD, "/sys/devices/system/node/node2/cpumap", O_RDONLY) = 3 openat(AT_FDCWD, "/sys/devices/system/node/node3/cpumap", O_RDONLY) = 3 If we move to binary, it means we have to change those applications. For this moment, I'd argue we keep cpu bitmap ABI as is and defer this issue to when we really get so many cores. Thanks Barry ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 16+ messages in thread

I thought Greg was saying to using a sysfs binary attribute using something like like sysfs_create_bin_file(). Those don't have the PAGE_SIZE limitation. But, there's also nothing to keep us from spewing nice human-readable text via the "binary" file.

Sorry for waking-up the old thread. I am not sure how common a regular device_attribute will be larger than 4KB and have to work around by bin_attribute. But I wrote a prototype which can initially support large regular sysfs entry and be able to fill the entire buffer by only one show() entry. The other words to say, we don't need to call read() of bin_attribute multiple times for a large regular file. Right now, only read-only attribute is supported. Subject: [RFC PATCH] sysfs: support regular device attr which can be larger than PAGE_SIZE A regular sysfs ABI could be more than 4KB, right now, we are using bin_attribute to workaround and break this limit. A better solution would be supporting long device attribute. In this case, we will still be able to enjoy the advantages of buffering and seeking of seq file and only need to fill the entire buffer of sysfs entry once.

I WANT people to run into this problem and realize that it went totally wrong because they should not be having more than one "value" in a sysfs file like this.
