2014-09-08time, signal: Protect resource use statistics with seqlockRik van Riel
Both times() and clock_gettime(CLOCK_PROCESS_CPUTIME_ID) have scalability issues on large systems, due to both functions being serialized with a lock. The lock protects against reporting a wrong value, due to a thread in the task group exiting, its statistics reporting up to the signal struct, and that exited task's statistics being counted twice (or not at all). Protecting that with a lock results in times() and clock_gettime() being completely serialized on large systems. This can be fixed by using a seqlock around the events that gather and propagate statistics. As an additional benefit, the protection code can be moved into thread_group_cputime(), slightly simplifying the calling functions. In the case of posix_cpu_clock_get_task() things can be simplified a lot, because the calling function already ensures that the task sticks around, and the rest is now taken care of in thread_group_cputime(). This way the statistics reporting code can run lockless.

2014-09-08exit: Always reap resource stats in __exit_signal()Rik van Riel
Oleg pointed out that wait_task_zombie adds a task's usage statistics to the parent's signal struct, but the task's own signal struct should also propagate the statistics at exit time. This allows thread_group_cputime(reaped_zombie) to get the statistics after __unhash_process() has made the task invisible to for_each_thread, but before the thread has actually been rcu freed, making sure no non-monotonic results are returned inside that window.

2014-09-07ufs: fix deadlocks introduced by sb mutex mergeAlexey Khoroshilov
Commit 0244756edc4b ("ufs: sb mutex merge + mutex_destroy") introduces deadlocks in ufs_new_inode() and ufs_free_inode(). Most callers of that functions acqure the mutex by themselves and ufs_{new,free}_inode() do that via lock_ufs(), i.e we have an unavoidable double lock. The patch proposes to resolve the issue by making sure that ufs_{new,free}_inode() are not called with the mutex held. Found by Linux Driver Verification project (linuxtesting.org).

2014-09-07sched/deadline: Fix a precision problem in the microseconds rangexiaofeng.yan
An overrun could happen in function start_hrtick_dl() when a task with SCHED_DEADLINE runs in the microseconds range. For example, if a task with SCHED_DEADLINE has the following parameters: Task runtime deadline period P1 200us 500us 500us The deadline and period from task P1 are less than 1ms. In order to achieve microsecond precision, we need to enable HRTICK feature by the next command: PC#echo "HRTICK" > /sys/kernel/debug/sched_features PC#trace-cmd record -e sched_switch & PC#./schedtool -E -t 200000:500000:500000 -e ./test The binary test is in an endless while(1) loop here. Some pieces of trace.dat are as follows: <idle>-0 157.603157: sched_switch: :R ==> 2481:4294967295: test test-2481 157.603203: sched_switch: 2481:R ==> 0:120: swapper/2 <idle>-0 157.605657: sched_switch: :R ==> 2481:4294967295: test test-2481 157.608183: sched_switch: 2481:R ==> 2483:120: trace-cmd trace-cmd-2483 157.609656: sched_switch:2483:R==>2481:4294967295: test We can get the runtime of P1 from the information above: runtime = 157.608183 - 157.605657 runtime = 0.002526(2.526ms) The correct runtime should be less than or equal to 200us at some point. The problem is caused by a conditional judgment "delta > 10000" in function start_hrtick_dl(). Because no hrtimer start up to control the rest of runtime when the reset of runtime is less than 10us. So the process will continue to run until tick-period is coming. Move the code with the limit of the least time slice from hrtick_start_fair() to hrtick_start() because the EDF schedule class also needs this function in start_hrtick_dl(). To fix this problem, we call hrtimer_start() unconditionally in start_hrtick_dl(), and make sure the scheduling slice won't be smaller than 10us in hrtimer_start().

2014-09-06timekeeping: Update timekeeper before updating vsyscall and pvclockThomas Gleixner
The update_walltime() code works on the shadow timekeeper to make the seqcount protected region as short as possible. But that update to the shadow timekeeper does not update all timekeeper fields because it's sufficient to do that once before it becomes life. One of these fields is tkr.base_mono. That stays stale in the shadow timekeeper unless an operation happens which copies the real timekeeper to the shadow. The update function is called after the update calls to vsyscall and pvclock. While not correct, it did not cause any problems because none of the invoked update functions used base_mono. commit cbcf2dd3b3d4 (x86: kvm: Make kvm_get_time_and_clockread() nanoseconds based) changed that in the kvm pvclock update function, so the stale mono_base value got used and caused kvm-clock to malfunction. Put the update where it belongs and fix the issue.

That change relied on the per-cpu charge caches to mostly swallow the res_counter costs, but it's apparent that the caches don't scale yet.

The reason this is needed is that starting with 3.15 kernel, due to Theodore Ts'o's commit 02b9984d6408 ("fs: push sync_filesystem() down to the file system's remount_fs()"), all file systems that have dirty data to be written out need to call sync_filesystem() from their ->remount_fs() method when remounting read-only. As this is now a generically required function rather than an internal only function it should be EXPORT_SYMBOL() so that all file systems can call it.

The use of "rcu_assign_pointer()" is NULLing out the pointer. According to RCU_INIT_POINTER()'s block comment: "1. This use of RCU_INIT_POINTER() is NULLing out the pointer" it is better to use it instead of rcu_assign_pointer() because it has a smaller overhead.

2014-09-04nohz: Restore NMI safe local irq work for local nohz kickFrederic Weisbecker
The local nohz kick is currently used by perf which needs it to be NMI-safe. Recent commit though (7d1311b93e58ed55f3a31cc8f94c4b8fe988a2b9) changed its implementation to fire the local kick using the remote kick API. It was convenient to make the code more generic but the remote kick isn't NMI-safe.

2014-09-04ARM: dts: dra7-evm: Add vtt regulator supportLokesh Vutla
DRA7 evm REV G and later boards uses a vtt regulator for DDR3 termination and this is controlled by gpio7_11. This gpio is configured in boot loader. gpio7_11, which is only available only on Pad A22, in previous boards, is connected only to an unused pad on expansion connector EXP_P3 and is safe to be muxed as GPIO on all DRA7-evm versions (without a need to spin off another dts file). Since gpio7_11 is used to control VTT and should not be reset or kept in idle state during boot up else VTT will be disconnected and DDR gets corrupted. So, as part of this change, mark gpio7 as no-reset and no-idle on init.

For NAND read & write wait pin monitoring must be kept disabled as the wait pin is only used to indicate NAND device ready status and not to extend each read/write cycle. So don't print a warning if wait pin is specified while read/write monitoring is not in the device tree. Sanity check wait pin number irrespective if read/write monitoring is set or not.
