2010-03-06lib: more scalable list_sort()Don Mullis
XFS and UBIFS can pass long lists to list_sort(); this alternative implementation scales better, reaching ~3x performance gain when list length exceeds the L2 cache size. Stand-alone program timings were run on a Core 2 duo L1=32KB L2=4MB, gcc-4.4, with flags extracted from an Ubuntu kernel build. Object size is 581 bytes compared to 455 for Mark J. Roberts' code. Worst case for either implementation is a list length just over a power of two, and to roughly the same degree, so here are timing results for a range of 2^N+1 lengths. List elements were 16 bytes each including malloc overhead; initial order was random. time (msec) Tatham-Roberts | generic-Mullis-v2 loop_count length | | ratio 4000000 2 206 294 1.427 2000000 3 176 227 1.289 1000000 5 199 172 0.864 500000 9 235 178 0.757 250000 17 243 182 0.748 125000 33 261 196 0.750 62500 65 277 209 0.754 31250 129 292 219 0.75 15625 257 317 235 0.741 7812 513 340 252 0.741 3906 1025 362 267 0.737 1953 2049 388 283 0.729 ~ L1 size 976 4097 556 323 0.580 488 8193 678 361 0.532 244 16385 773 395 0.510 122 32769 844 418 0.495 61 65537 917 454 0.495 30 131073 1128 543 0.481 15 262145 2355 869 0.369 ~ L2 size 7 524289 5597 1714 0.306 3 1048577 6218 2022 0.325 Mark's code does not actually implement the usual or generic mergesort, but rather a variant from Simon Tatham described here: http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/algorithms/listsort.html Simon's algorithm performs O(log N) passes over the entire input list, doing merges of sublists that double in size on each pass. The generic algorithm instead merges pairs of equal length lists as early as possible, in recursive order. For either algorithm, the elements that extend the list beyond power-of-two length are a special case, handled as nearly as possible as a "rounding-up" to a full POT. Some intuition for the locality of reference implications of merge order may be gotten by watching this animation: http://www.sorting-algorithms.com/merge-sort Simon's algorithm requires only O(1) extra space rather than the generic algorithm's O(log N), but in my non-recursive implementation the actual O(log N) data is merely a vector of ~20 pointers, which I've put on the stack. Long-running list_sort() calls: If the list passed in may be long, or the client's cmp() callback function is slow, the client's cmp() may periodically invoke cond_resched() to voluntarily yield the CPU. All inner loops of list_sort() call back to cmp(). Stability of the sort: distinct elements that compare equal emerge from the sort in the same order as with Mark's code, for simple test cases. A boot-time test is provided to verify this and other correctness requirements. A kernel that uses drm.ko appears to run normally with this change; I have no suitable hardware to similarly test the use by UBIFS.

2010-03-06scripts/get_maintainer.pl: add --file-emails, find embedded email addressesJoe Perches
Add an imperfect option to search a source file for email addresses. New option: --file-emails or --fe email addresses in files are freeform text and are nearly impossible to parse. Still, might as well try to do a somewhat acceptable job of finding them. This code should find all addresses that are in the form addr@domain.tld The code assumes that up to 3 alphabetic words along with dashes, commas, and periods that preceed the email address are a name. If 3 words are found for the name, and one of the first two words are a single letter and period, or just a single letter then the 3 words are use as name otherwise the last 2 words are used. Some variants that are shown correctly: John Smith <jksmith@domain.org> Random J. Developer <rjd@tld.com> Random J. Developer (rjd@tld.com) J. Random Developer rjd@tld.com Variants that are shown nominally correctly: Written by First Last (funny-addr@somecompany.com) is shown as: First Last <funny-addr@somecompany.com> Variants that are shown incorrectly: Some Really Long Name <srln@foo.bar> MontaVista Software, Inc. <source@mvista.com> are returned as: Long Name <srln@foo.bar> "Software, Inc" <source@mvista.com> --roles and --rolestats show "(in file)" for matches. For instance: Without -file-emails: $ ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl -f -nogit -roles net/core/netpoll.c David S.

2010-03-06kernel/pid.c: update comment on find_task_by_pid_nsTetsuo Handa
tasklist_lock does protect the task and its pid, it can't go away. The problem is that find_pid_ns() itself is unsafe without rcu lock, it can race with copy_process()->free_pid(any_pid). Protecting copy_process()->free_pid(any_pid) with tasklist_lock would make it possible to call find_task_by_pid_ns() under tasklist safely, but we don't do so because we are trying to get rid of the read_lock sites of tasklist_lock.

2010-03-06panic: fix panic_timeout accuracy when running on a hypervisorAnton Blanchard
I've had some complaints about panic_timeout being wildly innacurate on shared processor PowerPC partitions (a 3 minute panic_timeout taking 30 minutes). The problem is we loop on mdelay(1) and with a 1ms in 10ms hypervisor timeslice each of these will take 10ms (ie 10x) longer. I expect other platforms with shared processor hypervisors will see the same issue. This patch keeps the old behaviour if we have a panic_blink (only keyboard LEDs right now) and does 1 second mdelays if we don't.

The macro any_online_node() is prone to producing sparse warnings due to the local symbol 'node'. Since all the in-tree users are really requesting the first online node (the mask argument is either NODE_MASK_ALL or node_online_map) just use the first_online_node macro and remove the any_online_node macro since there are no users.

2010-03-06fs: use rlimit helpersJiri Slaby
Make sure compiler won't do weird things with limits. E.g. fetching them twice may return 2 different values after writable limits are implemented. I.e. either use rlimit helpers added in commit 3e10e716abf3 ("resource: add helpers for fetching rlimits") or ACCESS_ONCE if not applicable.
