2012-10-09rbtree: handle 1-child recoloring in rb_erase() instead of rb_erase_color()Michel Lespinasse
An interesting observation for rb_erase() is that when a node has exactly one child, the node must be black and the child must be red. An interesting consequence is that removing such a node can be done by simply replacing it with its child and making the child black, which we can do efficiently in rb_erase(). __rb_erase_color() then only needs to handle the no-childs case and can be modified accordingly.

2012-10-09rbtree: optimize fetching of sibling nodeMichel Lespinasse
When looking to fetch a node's sibling, we went through a sequence of: - check if node is the parent's left child - if it is, then fetch the parent's right child This can be replaced with: - fetch the parent's right child as an assumed sibling - check that node is NOT the fetched child This avoids fetching the parent's left child when node is actually that child. Saves a bit on code size, though it doesn't seem to make a large difference in speed.

2012-10-09rbtree: low level optimizations in __rb_erase_color()Michel Lespinasse
In __rb_erase_color(), we often already have pointers to the nodes being rotated and/or know what their colors must be, so we can generate more efficient code than the generic __rb_rotate_left() and __rb_rotate_right() functions. Also when the current node is red or when flipping the sibling's color, the parent is already known so we can use the more efficient rb_set_parent_color() function to set the desired color.

2012-10-09rbtree: optimize case selection logic in __rb_erase_color()Michel Lespinasse
In __rb_erase_color(), we have to select one of 3 cases depending on the color on the 'other' node children. If both children are black, we flip a few node colors and iterate. Otherwise, we do either one or two tree rotations, depending on the color of the 'other' child opposite to 'node', and then we are done. The corresponding logic had duplicate checks for the color of the 'other' child opposite to 'node'. It was checking it first to determine if both children are black, and then to determine how many tree rotations are required. Rearrange the logic to avoid that extra check.

2012-10-09rbtree: adjust node color in __rb_erase_color() only when necessaryMichel Lespinasse
In __rb_erase_color(), we were always setting a node to black after exiting the main loop. And in one case, after fixing up the tree to satisfy all rbtree invariants, we were setting the current node to root just to guarantee a loop exit, at which point the root would be set to black. However this is not necessary, as the root of an rbtree is already known to be black. The only case where the color flip is required is when we exit the loop due to the current node being red, and it's easiest to just do the flip at that point instead of doing it after the loop.

2012-10-09rbtree: low level optimizations in rb_insert_color()Michel Lespinasse
- Use the newly introduced rb_set_parent_color() function to flip the color of nodes whose parent is already known. - Optimize rb_parent() when the node is known to be red - there is no need to mask out the color in that case. - Flipping gparent's color to red requires us to fetch its rb_parent_color field, so we can reuse it as the parent value for the next loop iteration. - Do not use __rb_rotate_left() and __rb_rotate_right() to handle tree rotations: we already have pointers to all relevant nodes, and know their colors (either because we want to adjust it, or because we've tested it, or we can deduce it as black due to the node proximity to a known red node). So we can generate more efficient code by making use of the node pointers we already have, and setting both the parent and color attributes for nodes all at once. Also in Case 2, some node attributes don't have to be set because we know another tree rotation (Case 3) will always follow and override them.

2012-10-09rbtree: adjust root color in rb_insert_color() only when necessaryMichel Lespinasse
The root node of an rbtree must always be black. However, rb_insert_color() only needs to maintain this invariant when it has been broken - that is, when it exits the loop due to the current (red) node being the root. In all other cases (exiting after tree rotations, or exiting due to an existing black parent) the invariant is already satisfied, so there is no need to adjust the root node color.

2012-10-09rbtree: break out of rb_insert_color loop after tree rotationMichel Lespinasse
It is a well known property of rbtrees that insertion never requires more than two tree rotations. In our implementation, after one loop iteration identified one or two necessary tree rotations, we would iterate and look for more. However at that point the node's parent would always be black, which would cause us to exit the loop. We can make the code flow more obvious by just adding a break statement after the tree rotations, where we know we are done. Additionally, in the cases where two tree rotations are necessary, we don't have to update the 'node' pointer as it wouldn't be used until the next loop iteration, which we now avoid due to this break statement.

2012-10-09rbtree: empty nodes have no colorMichel Lespinasse
Empty nodes have no color. We can make use of this property to simplify the code emitted by the RB_EMPTY_NODE and RB_CLEAR_NODE macros. Also, we can get rid of the rb_init_node function which had been introduced by commit 88d19cf37952 ("timers: Add rb_init_node() to allow for stack allocated rb nodes") to avoid some issue with the empty node's color not being initialized. I'm not sure what the RB_EMPTY_NODE checks in rb_prev() / rb_next() are doing there, though. axboe introduced them in commit 10fd48f2376d ("rbtree: fixed reversed RB_EMPTY_NODE and rb_next/prev"). The way I see it, the 'empty node' abstraction is only used by rbtree users to flag nodes that they haven't inserted in any rbtree, so asking the predecessor or successor of such nodes doesn't make any sense. One final rb_init_node() caller was recently added in sysctl code to implement faster sysctl name lookups. This code doesn't make use of RB_EMPTY_NODE at all, and from what I could see it only called rb_init_node() under the mistaken assumption that such initialization was required before node insertion.

Add an ASN.1 BER/DER/CER decoder. This uses the bytecode from the ASN.1 compiler in the previous patch to inform it as to what to expect to find in the encoded byte stream. The output from the compiler also tells it what functions to call on what tags, thus allowing the caller to retrieve information. The decoder is called as follows: int asn1_decoder(const struct asn1_decoder *decoder, void *context, const unsigned char *data, size_t datalen); The decoder argument points to the bytecode from the ASN.1 compiler. context is the caller's context and is passed to the action functions. data and datalen define the byte stream to be decoded. Note that the decoder is currently limited to datalen being less than 64K. This reduces the amount of stack space used by the decoder because ASN.1 is a nested construct. Similarly, the decoder is limited to a maximum of 10 levels of constructed data outside of a leaf node also in an effort to keep stack usage down. These restrictions can be raised if necessary.

2012-10-05lib/vsprintf.c: improve standard conformance of sscanf()Jan Beulich
Xen's pciback points out a couple of deficiencies with vsscanf()'s standard conformance: - Trailing character matching cannot be checked by the caller: With a format string of "(%x:%x.%x) %n" absence of the closing parenthesis cannot be checked, as input of "(00:00.0)" doesn't cause the %n to be evaluated (because of the code not skipping white space before the trailing %n). - The parameter corresponding to a trailing %n could get filled even if there was a matching error: With a format string of "(%x:%x.%x)%n", input of "(00:00.0]" would still fill the respective variable pointed to (and hence again make the mismatch non-detectable by the caller). This patch aims at fixing those, but leaves other non-conforming aspects of it untouched, among them these possibly relevant ones: - improper handling of the assignment suppression character '*' (blindly discarding all succeeding non-white space from the format and input strings), - not honoring conversion specifiers for %n, - not recognizing the C99 conversion specifier 't' (recognized by vsprintf()).

2012-10-05lib/spinlock_debug: avoid livelock in do_raw_spin_lock()Vikram Mulukutla
The logic in do_raw_spin_lock() attempts to acquire a spinlock by invoking arch_spin_trylock() in a loop with a delay between each attempt. Now consider the following situation in a 2 CPU system: 1. CPU-0 continually acquires and releases a spinlock in a tight loop; it stays in this loop until some condition X is satisfied. X can only be satisfied by another CPU. 2. CPU-1 tries to acquire the same spinlock, in an attempt to satisfy the aforementioned condition X. However, it never sees the unlocked value of the lock because the debug spinlock code uses trylock instead of just lock; it checks at all the wrong moments - whenever CPU-0 has locked the lock. Now in the absence of debug spinlocks, the architecture specific spinlock code can correctly allow CPU-1 to wait in a "queue" (e.g., ticket spinlocks), ensuring that it acquires the lock at some point. However, with the debug spinlock code, livelock can easily occur due to the use of try_lock, which obviously cannot put the CPU in that "queue". This queueing mechanism is implemented in both x86 and ARM spinlock code. Note that the situation mentioned above is not hypothetical. A real problem was encountered where CPU-0 was running hrtimer_cancel with interrupts disabled, and CPU-1 was attempting to run the hrtimer that CPU-0 was trying to cancel. Address this by actually attempting arch_spin_lock once it is suspected that there is a spinlock lockup. If we're in a situation that is described above, the arch_spin_lock should succeed; otherwise other timeout mechanisms (e.g., watchdog) should alert the system of a lockup. Therefore, if there is a genuine system problem and the spinlock can't be acquired, the end result (irrespective of this change being present) is the same. If there is a livelock caused by the debug code, this change will allow the lock to be acquired, depending on the implementation of the lower level arch specific spinlock code.

2012-10-05genalloc: make it possible to use a custom allocation algorithmBenjamin Gaignard
Premit use of another algorithm than the default first-fit one. For example a custom algorithm could be used to manage alignment requirements. As I can't predict all the possible requirements/needs for all allocation uses cases, I add a "free" field 'void *data' to pass any needed information to the allocation function. For example 'data' could be used to handle a structure where you store the alignment, the expected memory bank, the requester device, or any information that could influence the allocation algorithm. An usage example may look like this: struct my_pool_constraints { int align; int bank; ... }; unsigned long my_custom_algo(unsigned long *map, unsigned long size, unsigned long start, unsigned int nr, void *data) { struct my_pool_constraints *constraints = data; ... deal with allocation contraints ... return the index in bitmap where perform the allocation } void create_my_pool() { struct my_pool_constraints c; struct gen_pool *pool = gen_pool_create(...); gen_pool_add(pool, ...); gen_pool_set_algo(pool, my_custom_algo, &c); } Add of best-fit algorithm function: most of the time best-fit is slower then first-fit but memory fragmentation is lower. The random buffer allocation/free tests don't show any arithmetic relation between the allocation time and fragmentation but the best-fit algorithm is sometime able to perform the allocation when the first-fit can't. This new algorithm help to remove static allocations on ESRAM, a small but fast on-chip RAM of few KB, used for high-performance uses cases like DMA linked lists, graphic accelerators, encoders/decoders. On the Ux500 (in the ARM tree) we have define 5 ESRAM banks of 128 KB each and use of static allocations becomes unmaintainable: cd arch/arm/mach-ux500 && grep -r ESRAM . ./include/mach/db8500-regs.h:/* Base address and bank offsets for ESRAM */ ./include/mach/db8500-regs.h:#define U8500_ESRAM_BASE 0x40000000 ./include/mach/db8500-regs.h:#define U8500_ESRAM_BANK_SIZE 0x00020000 ./include/mach/db8500-regs.h:#define U8500_ESRAM_BANK0 U8500_ESRAM_BASE ./include/mach/db8500-regs.h:#define U8500_ESRAM_BANK1 (U8500_ESRAM_BASE + U8500_ESRAM_BANK_SIZE) ./include/mach/db8500-regs.h:#define U8500_ESRAM_BANK2 (U8500_ESRAM_BANK1 + U8500_ESRAM_BANK_SIZE) ./include/mach/db8500-regs.h:#define U8500_ESRAM_BANK3 (U8500_ESRAM_BANK2 + U8500_ESRAM_BANK_SIZE) ./include/mach/db8500-regs.h:#define U8500_ESRAM_BANK4 (U8500_ESRAM_BANK3 + U8500_ESRAM_BANK_SIZE) ./include/mach/db8500-regs.h:#define U8500_ESRAM_DMA_LCPA_OFFSET 0x10000 ./include/mach/db8500-regs.h:#define U8500_DMA_LCPA_BASE (U8500_ESRAM_BANK0 + U8500_ESRAM_DMA_LCPA_OFFSET) ./include/mach/db8500-regs.h:#define U8500_DMA_LCLA_BASE U8500_ESRAM_BANK4 I want to use genalloc to do dynamic allocations but I need to be able to fine tune the allocation algorithm.

2012-10-05lib/parser.c: avoid overflow in match_number()Alex Elder
The result of converting an integer value to another signed integer type that's unable to represent the original value is implementation defined. (See notes in section 6.3.1.3 of the C standard.) In match_number(), the result of simple_strtol() (which returns type long) is assigned to a value of type int. Instead, handle the result of simple_strtol() in a well-defined way, and return -ERANGE if the result won't fit in the int variable used to hold the parsed result. No current callers pay attention to the particular error value returned, so this additional return code shouldn't do any harm.

'idle RCU': Adds RCU APIs that allow non-idle tasks to enter RCU idle mode and provides x86 code to make use of them, allowing RCU to treat user-mode execution as an extended quiescent state when the new RCU_USER_QS kernel configuration parameter is specified. (Work is in progress to port this to a few other architectures, but is not part of this series.) 1. A fix for a latent bug that has been in RCU ever since the addition of CPU stall warnings. This bug results in false-positive stall warnings, but thus far only on embedded systems with severely cut-down userspace configurations. 2. Further reductions in latency spikes for huge systems, along with additional boot-time adaptation to the actual hardware. This is a large change, as it moves RCU grace-period initialization and cleanup, along with quiescent-state forcing, from softirq to a kthread. However, it appears to be in quite good shape (famous last words). 3. Updates to documentation and rcutorture, the latter category including keeping statistics on CPU-hotplug latencies and fixing some initialization-time races. 4. CPU-hotplug fixes and improvements. 5. Idle-loop fixes that were omitted on an earlier submission. 6.
