2016-05-21 | radix tree test suite: multi-order iteration test | Ross Zwisler | |
Add a unit test to verify that we can iterate over multi-order entries properly via a radix_tree_for_each_slot() loop. This was done with a single, somewhat complicated configuration that was meant to test many of the various corner cases having to do with multi-order entries: - An iteration could begin at a sibling entry, and we need to return the canonical entry. - We could have entries of various orders in the same slots[] array. - We could have multi-order entries at a nonzero height, followed by indirect pointers to more radix tree nodes later in that same slots[] array.

2016-05-21 | radix-tree: add support for multi-order iterating | Ross Zwisler | |
This enables the macros radix_tree_for_each_slot() and friends to be used with multi-order entries. The way that this works is that we treat all entries in a given slots[] array as a single chunk. If the index given to radix_tree_next_chunk() happens to point us to a sibling entry, we will back up iter->index so that it points to the canonical entry, and that will be the place where we start our iteration. As we're processing a chunk in radix_tree_next_slot(), we process canonical entries, skip over sibling entries, and restart the chunk lookup if we find a non-sibling indirect pointer. This drops back to the radix_tree_next_chunk() code, which will re-walk the tree and look for another chunk. This allows us to properly handle multi-order entries mixed with other entries that are at various heights in the radix tree.

2016-05-21 | radix-tree: fix multiorder BUG_ON in radix_tree_insert | Matthew Wilcox | |
These BUG_ON tests are to ensure that all the tags are clear when inserting a new entry. If we insert a multiorder entry, we'll end up looking at the tags for a different node, and so the BUG_ON can end up triggering spuriously. Also, we now have three tags, not two, so check all three are clear, and check all the root tags with a single call to BUG_ON since the bits are stored contiguously. Include a test-case to ensure this problem does not reoccur.

2016-05-21 | radix-tree: fix several shrinking bugs with multiorder entries | Matthew Wilcox | |
Setting the indirect bit on the user data entry used to be unambiguous because the tree walking code knew not to expect internal nodes in the last level of the tree. Multiorder entries can appear at any level of the tree, and a leaf with the indirect bit set is indistinguishable from a pointer to a node. Introduce a special entry (RADIX_TREE_RETRY) which is neither a valid user entry, nor a valid pointer to a node. The radix_tree_deref_retry() function continues to work the same way, but tree walking code can distinguish it from a pointer to a node. Also fix the condition for setting slot->parent to NULL; it does not matter what height the tree is, it only matters whether slot is an indirect pointer. Move this code above the comment which is referring to the assignment to root->rnode. Also fix the condition for preventing the tree from shrinking to a single entry if it's a multiorder entry. Add a test-case to the test suite that checks that the tree goes back down to its original height after an item is inserted & deleted from a higher index in the tree.

2016-05-21 | radix tree test suite: start adding multiorder tests | Matthew Wilcox | |
Test suite infrastructure for working with multiorder entries. The test itself is pretty basic: Add an entry, check that all expected indices return that entry and that indices around that entry don't return an entry. Then delete the entry and check no index returns that entry. Tests a few edge conditions including the multiorder entry at index 0 and at a higher index. Also tests deleting through an alias as well as through the canonical index.

2016-05-21 | radix-tree: fix extending the tree for multi-order entries at offset 0 | Matthew Wilcox | |
The current code will insert entries at each level, as if we're going to add a new entry at the bottom level, so we then get an -EEXIST when we try to insert the entry into the tree. The best way to fix this is to not check 'order' when inserting into an empty tree. We still need to 'extend' the tree to the height necessary for the maximum index corresponding to this entry, so pass that value to radix_tree_extend() rather than the index we're asked to create, or we won't create a tree that's deep enough.

2016-05-21 | radix tree test suite: keep regression test runs short | Ross Zwisler | |
Currently the full suite of regression tests take upwards of 30 minutes to run on my development machine. The vast majority of this time is taken by the big_gang_check() and copy_tag_check() tests, which each run their tests through thousands of iterations...does this have value? Without big_gang_check() and copy_tag_check(), the test suite runs in around 15 seconds on my box. Honestly the first time I ever ran through the entire test suite was to gather the timings for this email - it simply takes too long to be useful on a normal basis. Instead, hide the excessive iterations through big_gang_check() and copy_tag_check() tests behind an '-l' flag (for "long run") in case they are still useful, but allow the regression test suite to complete in a reasonable amount of time. We still run each of these tests a few times (3 at present) to try and keep the test coverage.

2016-05-21 | radix-tree: introduce radix_tree_empty | Matthew Wilcox | |
Commit e61452365372 ("radix_tree: add support for multi-order entries") left the impression that the support for multiorder radix tree entries was functional. As soon as Ross tried to use it, it became apparent that my testing was completely inadequate, and it didn't even work a little bit for orders that were not a multiple of shift. This series of patches is the result of about 6 weeks of redesign, reimplementation, testing, arguing and hair-pulling. The great news is that the test-suite is now far better than it was. That's reflected in the diffstat for the test-suite alone: 12 files changed, 436 insertions(+), 28 deletions(-) The highlight for users of the tree is that the restriction on the order of inserted entries being >= RADIX_TREE_MAP_SHIFT is now gone; the radix tree now supports any order between 0 and 64. For those who are interested in how the tree works, patch 9 is probably the most interesting one as it introduces the new machinery for handling sibling entries. I've tried to be fair in attributing authorship to the person who contributed the majority of the code in each patch; Ross has been an invaluable partner in the development of this support and it's fair to say that each of us has code in every commit. I should also express my appreciation of the 0day testing. It prompted me that I was bloating the tinyconfig in an unacceptable way, and it bisected to a commit which contained a rather nasty memory-corruption bug. This patch (of 29): The irqdomain code was checking for 0 or 1 entries, not 0 entries like the comment said they were. Introduce a new helper that will actually check for an empty tree.

So, please test this as much as you can and provide your tag. We appreciate the effort. The ACPI conversion is postponed for now to sort more generic things out first. This patch (of 9): Since we have hex_byte_pack_upper() we may use it directly and avoid second loop.

2016-05-21 | printk/nmi: flush NMI messages on the system panic | Petr Mladek | |
In NMI context, printk() messages are stored into per-CPU buffers to avoid a possible deadlock. They are normally flushed to the main ring buffer via an IRQ work. But the work is never called when the system calls panic() in the very same NMI handler. This patch tries to flush NMI buffers before the crash dump is generated. In this case it does not risk a double release and bails out when the logbuf_lock is already taken. The aim is to get the messages into the main ring buffer when possible. It makes them better accessible in the vmcore. Then the patch tries to flush the buffers second time when other CPUs are down. It might be more aggressive and reset logbuf_lock. The aim is to get the messages available for the consequent kmsg_dump() and console_flush_on_panic() calls. The patch causes vprintk_emit() to be called even in NMI context again. But it is done via printk_deferred() so that the console handling is skipped. Consoles use internal locks and we could not prevent a deadlock easily. They are explicitly called later when the crash dump is not generated, see console_flush_on_panic().

2016-05-21 | printk/nmi: increase the size of NMI buffer and make it configurable | Petr Mladek | |
Testing has shown that the backtrace sometimes does not fit into the 4kB temporary buffer that is used in NMI context. The warnings are gone when I double the temporary buffer size. This patch doubles the buffer size and makes it configurable. Note that this problem existed even in the x86-specific implementation that was added by the commit a9edc8809328 ("x86/nmi: Perform a safe NMI stack trace on all CPUs").

We could not resize the temporary buffer in NMI context. Let's warn if a message is lost. This is rather theoretical. printk() should not be used in NMI. The only sensible use is when we want to print backtrace from all CPUs. The current buffer should be enough for this purpose.

2016-05-21 | printk/nmi: generic solution for safe printk in NMI | Petr Mladek | |
printk() takes some locks and could not be used a safe way in NMI context. The chance of a deadlock is real especially when printing stacks from all CPUs. This particular problem has been addressed on x86 by the commit a9edc8809328 ("x86/nmi: Perform a safe NMI stack trace on all CPUs"). The patchset brings two big advantages. First, it makes the NMI backtraces safe on all architectures for free. Second, it makes all NMI messages almost safe on all architectures (the temporary buffer is limited. We still should keep the number of messages in NMI context at minimum). Note that there already are several messages printed in NMI context: WARN_ON(in_nmi()), BUG_ON(in_nmi()), anything being printed out from MCE handlers. These are not easy to avoid. This patch reuses most of the code and makes it generic. It is useful for all messages and architectures that support NMI. The alternative printk_func is set when entering and is reseted when leaving NMI context. It queues IRQ work to copy the messages into the main ring buffer in a safe context. __printk_nmi_flush() copies all available messages and reset the buffer. Then we could use a simple cmpxchg operations to get synchronized with writers. There is also used a spinlock to get synchronized with other flushers. We do not longer use seq_buf because it depends on external lock. It would be hard to make all supported operations safe for a lockless use. It would be confusing and error prone to make only some operations safe. The code is put into separate printk/nmi.c as suggested by Steven Rostedt. It needs a per-CPU buffer and is compiled only on architectures that call nmi_enter(). This is achieved by the new HAVE_NMI Kconfig flag. The are MN10300 and Xtensa architectures. We need to clean up NMI handling there first. Let's do it separately. The patch is heavily based on the draft from Peter Zijlstra, see https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/6/10/327 [arnd@arndb.de: printk-nmi: use %zu format string for size_t] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: min_t->min - all types are size_t here] Signed-off-by: Petr Mladek <pmladek@suse.com> Suggested-by: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Suggested-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Cc: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> Acked-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk> [arm part] Cc: Daniel Thompson <daniel.thompson@linaro.org> Cc: Jiri Kosina <jkosina@suse.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@redhat.com> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Cc: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org> Cc: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> Cc: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com> Cc: David Miller <davem@davemloft.net> Cc: Daniel Thompson <daniel.thompson@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> | |||
2016-05-21 | include/linux/syscalls.h: use pid_t instead of int | René Nyffenegger | |
In include/linux/syscalls.h, the four functions sys_kill, sys_tgkill, sys_tkill and sys_rt_sigqueueinfo are declared with "int pid" and "int tgid". However, in kernel/signal.c, the corresponding definitions use the more appropriate "pid_t" (which is a typedef'd int). This patch changes "int" to "pid_t" in the declarations of sys_kill, sys_tgkill, sys_tkill and sys_rt_sigqueueinfo in <linux/syscalls.h> in order to harmonize the function declarations with their respective definitions.

2016-05-21 | procfs: fix pthread cross-thread naming if !PR_DUMPABLE | Janis Danisevskis | |
The PR_DUMPABLE flag causes the pid related paths of the proc file system to be owned by ROOT. The implementation of pthread_set/getname_np however needs access to /proc/<pid>/task/<tid>/comm. If PR_DUMPABLE is false this implementation is locked out. This patch installs a special permission function for the file "comm" that grants read and write access to all threads of the same group regardless of the ownership of the inode. For all other threads the function falls back to the generic inode permission check.

2016-05-21 | procfs: expose umask in /proc/<PID>/status | Richard W.M. Jones | |
It's not possible to read the process umask without also modifying it, which is what umask(2) does. A library cannot read umask safely, especially if the main program might be multithreaded. Add a new status line ("Umask") in /proc/<PID>/status. It contains the file mode creation mask (umask) in octal. It is only shown for tasks which have task->fs. This patch is adapted from one originally written by Pierre Carrier. The use case is that we have endless trouble with people setting weird umask() values (usually on the grounds of "security"), and then everything breaking. I'm on the hook to fix these. We'd like to add debugging to our program so we can dump out the umask in debug reports. Previous versions of the patch used a syscall so you could only read your own umask. That's all I need. However there was quite a lot of push-back from those, so this new version exports it in /proc.

2016-05-21 | zram: introduce per-device debug_stat sysfs node | Sergey Senozhatsky | |
debug_stat sysfs is read-only and represents various debugging data that zram developers may need. This file is not meant to be used by anyone else: its content is not documented and will change any time w/o any notice. Therefore, the output of debug_stat file contains a version string. To avoid any confusion, we will increase the version number every time we modify the output. At the moment this file exports only one value -- the number of re-compressions, IOW, the number of times compression fast path has failed. This stat is temporary any will be useful in case if any per-cpu compression streams regressions will be reported.

2016-05-21 | zram: remove max_comp_streams internals | Sergey Senozhatsky | |
Remove the internal part of max_comp_streams interface, since we switched to per-cpu streams. We will keep RW max_comp_streams attr around, because: a) we may (silently) switch back to idle compression streams list and don't want to disturb user space b) max_comp_streams attr must wait for the next 'lay off cycle'; we give user space 2 years to adjust before we remove/downgrade the attr, and there are already several attrs scheduled for removal in 4.11, so it's too late for max_comp_streams. This slightly change a user visible behaviour: - First, reading from max_comp_stream file now will always return the number of online CPUs. - Second, writing to max_comp_stream will not take any effect.

2016-05-21 | mm/zsmalloc: don't fail if can't create debugfs info | Dan Streetman | |
Change the return type of zs_pool_stat_create() to void, and remove the logic to abort pool creation if the stat debugfs dir/file could not be created. The debugfs stat file is for debugging/information only, and doesn't affect operation of zsmalloc; there is no reason to abort creating the pool if the stat file can't be created. This was seen with zswap, which used the same name for all pool creations, which caused zsmalloc to fail to create a second pool for zswap if CONFIG_ZSMALLOC_STAT was enabled.

2016-05-21 | mm/zswap: use workqueue to destroy pool | Dan Streetman | |
Add a work_struct to struct zswap_pool, and change __zswap_pool_empty to use the workqueue instead of using call_rcu(). When zswap destroys a pool no longer in use, it uses call_rcu() to perform the destruction/freeing. Since that executes in softirq context, it must not sleep. However, actually destroying the pool involves freeing the per-cpu compressors (which requires locking the cpu_add_remove_lock mutex) and freeing the zpool, for which the implementation may sleep (e.g. zsmalloc calls kmem_cache_destroy, which locks the slab_mutex). So if either mutex is currently taken, or any other part of the compressor or zpool implementation sleeps, it will result in a BUG(). It's not easy to reproduce this when changing zswap's params normally. In testing with a loaded system, this does not fail: $ cd /sys/module/zswap/parameters $ echo lz4 > compressor ; echo zsmalloc > zpool nor does this: $ while true ; do > echo lzo > compressor ; echo zbud > zpool > sleep 1 > echo lz4 > compressor ; echo zsmalloc > zpool > sleep 1 > done although it's still possible either of those might fail, depending on whether anything else besides zswap has locked the mutexes. However, changing a parameter with no delay immediately causes the schedule while atomic BUG: $ while true ; do > echo lzo > compressor ; echo lz4 > compressor > done This is essentially the same as Yu Zhao's proposed patch to zsmalloc, but moved to zswap, to cover compressor and zpool freeing.

2016-05-21 | zram: user per-cpu compression streams | Sergey Senozhatsky | |
Remove idle streams list and keep compression streams in per-cpu data. This removes two contented spin_lock()/spin_unlock() calls from write path and also prevent write OP from being preempted while holding the compression stream, which can cause slow downs. For instance, let's assume that we have N cpus and N-2 max_comp_streams.TASK1 owns the last idle stream, TASK2-TASK3 come in with the write requests: TASK1 TASK2 TASK3 zram_bvec_write() spin_lock find stream spin_unlock compress <<preempted>> zram_bvec_write() spin_lock find stream spin_unlock no_stream schedule zram_bvec_write() spin_lock find_stream spin_unlock no_stream schedule spin_lock release stream spin_unlock wake up TASK2 not only TASK2 and TASK3 will not get the stream, TASK1 will be preempted in the middle of its operation; while we would prefer it to finish compression and release the stream. Test environment: x86_64, 4 CPU box, 3G zram, lzo The following fio tests were executed: read, randread, write, randwrite, rw, randrw with the increasing number of jobs from 1 to 10. 4 streams 8
