Thomas Gleixner reports that we now have a boot crash triggered by
CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK=y:
BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at (null)
IP: [<c11ae035>] find_next_bit+0x55/0xb0
Call Trace:
[<c11addda>] cpumask_any_but+0x2a/0x70
[<c102396b>] flush_tlb_mm+0x2b/0x80
[<c1022705>] pud_populate+0x35/0x50
[<c10227ba>] pgd_alloc+0x9a/0xf0
[<c103a3fc>] mm_init+0xec/0x120
[<c103a7a3>] mm_alloc+0x53/0xd0
which was introduced by commit de03c72cfce5 ("mm: convert
mm->cpu_vm_cpumask into cpumask_var_t"), and is due to wrong ordering of
mm_init() vs mm_init_cpumask
Thomas wrote a patch to just fix the ordering of initialization, but I
hate the new double allocation in the fork path, so I ended up instead
doing some more radical surgery to clean it all up.

Reserve just the minimum of pages needed to process one job.
Because we allocate pages from page allocator, we don't need to reserve
a large number of pages. The maximum job size is SUB_JOB_SIZE and we
calculate the number of reserved pages based on this.

Replace the arbitrary calculation of an initial io struct mempool size
with a constant.
The code calculated the number of reserved structures based on the request
size and used a "magic" multiplication constant of 4. This patch changes
it to reserve a fixed number - itself still chosen quite arbitrarily.
Further testing might show if there is a better number to choose.
Note that if there is no memory pressure, we can still allocate an
arbitrary number of "struct io" structures. One structure is enough to
process the whole request.

page_get_storage_key() and page_set_storage_key() expect a page address
and not its page frame number. This got inconsistent with 2d42552d
"[S390] merge page_test_dirty and page_clear_dirty".
Result is that we read/write storage keys from random pages and do not
have a working dirty bit tracking at all.
E.g. SetPageUpdate() doesn't clear the dirty bit of requested pages, which
for example ext4 doesn't like very much and panics after a while.

Usually, there are multiple processors defined in ACPI table, for
example
Scope (_PR)
{
Processor (CPU0, 0x00, 0x00000410, 0x06) {}
Processor (CPU1, 0x01, 0x00000410, 0x06) {}
Processor (CPU2, 0x02, 0x00000410, 0x06) {}
Processor (CPU3, 0x03, 0x00000410, 0x06) {}
}
processor_physically_present(...) will be called to check whether those
processors are physically present.
Currently we have below codes in processor_physically_present,
cpuid = acpi_get_cpuid(...);
if ((cpuid == -1) && (num_possible_cpus() > 1))
return false;
return true;
In UP kernel, acpi_get_cpuid(...) always return -1 and
num_possible_cpus() always return 1, so
processor_physically_present(...) always returns true for all passed in
processor handles.
This is wrong for UP processor or SMP processor running UP kernel.
This patch removes the !SMP version of acpi_get_cpuid(), so both UP and
SMP kernel use the same acpi_get_cpuid function.
And for UP kernel, only processor 0 is valid.

Thanks to the reviews and comments by Rafael, James, Mark and Andi.
Here's version 2 of the patch incorporating your comments and also some
update to my previous patch comments.
I noticed that before entering idle state, the menu idle governor will
look up the current pm_qos target value according to the list of qos
requests received. This look up currently needs the acquisition of a
lock to access the list of qos requests to find the qos target value,
slowing down the entrance into idle state due to contention by multiple
cpus to access this list. The contention is severe when there are a lot
of cpus waking and going into idle. For example, for a simple workload
that has 32 pair of processes ping ponging messages to each other, where
64 cpu cores are active in test system, I see the following profile with
37.82% of cpu cycles spent in contention of pm_qos_lock:
- 37.82% swapper [kernel.kallsyms] [k]
_raw_spin_lock_irqsave
- _raw_spin_lock_irqsave
- 95.65% pm_qos_request
menu_select
cpuidle_idle_call
- cpu_idle
99.98% start_secondary
A better approach will be to cache the updated pm_qos target value so
reading it does not require lock acquisition as in the patch below.
With this patch the contention for pm_qos_lock is removed and I saw a
2.2X increase in throughput for my message passing workload.

* setns:
ns: Wire up the setns system call
Done as a merge to make it easier to fix up conflicts in arm due to
addition of sendmmsg system call
|
|
32bit and 64bit on x86 are tested and working. The rest I have looked
at closely and I can't find any problems.
setns is an easy system call to wire up. It just takes two ints so I
don't expect any weird architecture porting problems.
While doing this I have noticed that we have some architectures that are
very slow to get new system calls. cris seems to be the slowest where
the last system calls wired up were preadv and pwritev. avr32 is weird
in that recvmmsg was wired up but never declared in unistd.h. frv is
behind with perf_event_open being the last syscall wired up. On h8300
the last system call wired up was epoll_wait. On m32r the last system
call wired up was fallocate. mn10300 has recvmmsg as the last system
call wired up. The rest seem to at least have syncfs wired up which was
new in the 2.6.39.
v2: Most of the architecture support added by Daniel Lezcano <dlezcano@fr.ibm.com>
v3: ported to v2.6.36-rc4 by: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xmission.com>
v4: Moved wiring up of the system call to another patch
v5: ported to v2.6.39-rc6

Some recent benchmarking on btrfs showed that a major scaling bottleneck
on large systems on btrfs is currently the xattr lookup on every write.
Why xattr lookup on every write I hear you ask?
write wants to drop suid and security related xattrs that could set o
capabilities for executables. To do that it currently looks up
security.capability on EVERY write (even for non executables) to decide
whether to drop it or not.
In btrfs this causes an additional tree walk, hitting some per file system
locks and quite bad scalability. In a simple read workload on a 8S
system I saw over 90% CPU time in spinlocks related to that.
Chris Mason tells me this is also a problem in ext4, where it hits
the global mbcache lock.
This patch adds a simple per inode to avoid this problem. We only
do the lookup once per file and then if there is no xattr cache
the decision. All xattr changes clear the flag.
I also used the same flag to avoid the suid check, although
that one is pretty cheap.
A file system can also set this flag when it creates the inode,
if it has a cheap way to do so. This is done for some common file systems
in followon patches.
With this patch a major part of the lock contention disappears
for btrfs. Some testing on smaller systems didn't show significant
performance changes, but at least it helps the larger systems
and is generally more efficient.
v2: Rename is_sgid. add file system helper.

TI-RPC introduces the capability of performing RPC over AF_LOCAL
sockets. It uses this mainly for registering and unregistering
local RPC services securely with the local rpcbind, but we could
also conceivably use it as a generic upcall mechanism.
This patch provides a client-side only implementation for the moment.
We might also consider a server-side implementation to provide
AF_LOCAL access to NLM (for statd downcalls, and such like).
Autobinding is not supported on kernel AF_LOCAL transports at this
time. Kernel ULPs must specify the pathname of the remote endpoint
when an AF_LOCAL transport is created. rpcbind supports registering
services available via AF_LOCAL, so the kernel could handle it with
some adjustment to ->rpcbind and ->set_port. But we don't need this
feature for doing upcalls via well-known named sockets.
This has not been tested with ULPs that move a substantial amount of
data. Thus, I can't attest to how robust the write_space and
congestion management logic is.

Ingo Molnar noticed that we have this unnecessary ratelimit.h
dependency in linux/net.h, which hid compilation problems from
people doing builds only with CONFIG_NET enabled.
Move this stuff out to a seperate net/net_ratelimit.h file and
include that in the only two places where this thing is needed.

Tell the filesystem if we just updated timestamp (I_DIRTY_SYNC) or
anything else, so that the filesystem can track internally if it
needs to push out a transaction for fdatasync or not.
This is just the prototype change with no user for it yet. I plan
to push large XFS changes for the next merge window, and getting
this trivial infrastructure in this window would help a lot to avoid
tree interdependencies.
Also remove incorrect comments that ->dirty_inode can't block. That
has been changed a long time ago, and many implementations rely on it.

TPS65911 adds new interrupt sources, as well as two new registers
to handle them, one for interrupt status and one for interrupt
masking. The added irqs are:
-VMBCH2 - Low and High threshold
-GPIO1-8 - Rising and falling edge detection
-WTCHDG - Watchdog interrupt
-PWRDN - PWRDN reset interrupt
The code should handle these new registers only when the chip
version is TPS65911.
