Every perf_trace_buf_prepare() caller does WARN_ONCE(size > PERF_MAX_TRACE_SIZE, message) and "message" is almost the same. Shift this WARN_ONCE() into perf_trace_buf_prepare().

The difference between "dump" and "cpudump" is that "dump" will dump the entire contents of the ftrace buffer, where as "cpudump" will only dump the contents of the ftrace buffer for the CPU that called the function. Another small enhancement is a new sysctl switch called "traceoff_on_warning" which, when enabled, will disable tracing if any WARN_ON() is triggered.

2013-07-03mm: add tracepoints for LRU activation and insertionsMel Gorman
Andrew Perepechko reported a problem whereby pages are being prematurely evicted as the mark_page_accessed() hint is ignored for pages that are currently on a pagevec -- http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-ext4/msg37340.html . Alexey Lyahkov and Robin Dong have also reported problems recently that could be due to hot pages reaching the end of the inactive list too quickly and be reclaimed. Rather than addressing this on a per-filesystem basis, this series aims to fix the mark_page_accessed() interface by deferring what LRU a page is added to pagevec drain time and allowing mark_page_accessed() to call SetPageActive on a pagevec page. Patch 1 adds two tracepoints for LRU page activation and insertion. Using these processes it's possible to build a model of pages in the LRU that can be processed offline. Patch 2 defers making the decision on what LRU to add a page to until when the pagevec is drained. Patch 3 searches the local pagevec for pages to mark PageActive on mark_page_accessed. The changelog explains why only the local pagevec is examined. Patches 4 and 5 tidy up the API. postmark, a dd-based test and fs-mark both single and threaded mode were run but none of them showed any performance degradation or gain as a result of the patch. Using patch 1, I built a *very* basic model of the LRU to examine offline what the average age of different page types on the LRU were in milliseconds. Of course, capturing the trace distorts the test as it's written to local disk but it does not matter for the purposes of this test. The average age of pages in milliseconds were vanilla deferdrain Average age mapped anon: 1454 1250 Average age mapped file: 127841 155552 Average age unmapped anon: 85 235 Average age unmapped file: 73633 38884 Average age unmapped buffers: 74054 116155 The LRU activity was mostly files which you'd expect for a dd-based workload. Note that the average age of buffer pages is increased by the series and it is expected this is due to the fact that the buffer pages are now getting added to the active list when drained from the pagevecs. Note that the average age of the unmapped file data is decreased as they are still added to the inactive list and are reclaimed before the buffers. There is no guarantee this is a universal win for all workloads and it would be nice if the filesystem people gave some thought as to whether this decision is generally a win or a loss. This patch: Using these tracepoints it is possible to model LRU activity and the average residency of pages of different types. This can be used to debug problems related to premature reclaim of pages of particular types.

2013-07-03Merge tag 'pm+acpi-3.11-rc1' of ↵Linus Torvalds
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm Pull power management and ACPI updates from Rafael Wysocki: "This time the total number of ACPI commits is slightly greater than the number of cpufreq commits, but Viresh Kumar (who works on cpufreq) remains the most active patch submitter. To me, the most significant change is the addition of offline/online device operations to the driver core (with the Greg's blessing) and the related modifications of the ACPI core hotplug code. Next are the freezer updates from Colin Cross that should make the freezing of tasks a bit less heavy weight. We also have a couple of regression fixes, a number of fixes for issues that have not been identified as regressions, two new drivers and a bunch of cleanups all over. Highlights: - Hotplug changes to support graceful hot-removal failures. It sometimes is necessary to fail device hot-removal operations gracefully if they cannot be carried out completely. For example, if memory from a memory module being hot-removed has been allocated for the kernel's own use and cannot be moved elsewhere, it's desirable to fail the hot-removal operation in a graceful way rather than to crash the kernel, but currenty a success or a kernel crash are the only possible outcomes of an attempted memory hot-removal. Needless to say, that is not a very attractive alternative and it had to be addressed. However, in order to make it work for memory, I first had to make it work for CPUs and for this purpose I needed to modify the ACPI processor driver. It's been split into two parts, a resident one handling the low-level initialization/cleanup and a modular one playing the actual driver's role (but it binds to the CPU system device objects rather than to the ACPI device objects representing processors). That's been sort of like a live brain surgery on a patient who's riding a bike. So this is a little scary, but since we found and fixed a couple of regressions it caused to happen during the early linux-next testing (a month ago), nobody has complained. As a bonus we remove some duplicated ACPI hotplug code, because the ACPI-based CPU hotplug is now going to use the common ACPI hotplug code. - Lighter weight freezing of tasks. These changes from Colin Cross and Mandeep Singh Baines are targeted at making the freezing of tasks a bit less heavy weight operation. They reduce the number of tasks woken up every time during the freezing, by using the observation that the freezer simply doesn't need to wake up some of them and wait for them all to call refrigerator(). The time needed for the freezer to decide to report a failure is reduced too. Also reintroduced is the check causing a lockdep warining to trigger when try_to_freeze() is called with locks held (which is generally unsafe and shouldn't happen). - cpufreq updates First off, a commit from Srivatsa S Bhat fixes a resume regression introduced during the 3.10 cycle causing some cpufreq sysfs attributes to return wrong values to user space after resume. The fix is kind of fresh, but also it's pretty obvious once Srivatsa has identified the root cause. Second, we have a new freqdomain_cpus sysfs attribute for the acpi-cpufreq driver to provide information previously available via related_cpus. From Lan Tianyu. Finally, we fix a number of issues, mostly related to the CPUFREQ_POSTCHANGE notifier and cpufreq Kconfig options and clean up some code. The majority of changes from Viresh Kumar with bits from Jacob Shin, Heiko Stübner, Xiaoguang Chen, Ezequiel Garcia, Arnd Bergmann, and Tang Yuantian. - ACPICA update A usual bunch of updates from the ACPICA upstream. During the 3.4 cycle we introduced support for ACPI 5 extended sleep registers, but they are only supposed to be used if the HW-reduced mode bit is set in the FADT flags and the code attempted to use them without checking that bit. That caused suspend/resume regressions to happen on some systems. Fix from Lv Zheng causes those registers to be used only if the HW-reduced mode bit is set. Apart from this some other ACPICA bugs are fixed and code cleanups are made by Bob Moore, Tomasz Nowicki, Lv Zheng, Chao Guan, and Zhang Rui. - cpuidle updates New driver for Xilinx Zynq processors is added by Michal Simek. Multidriver support simplification, addition of some missing kerneldoc comments and Kconfig-related fixes come from Daniel Lezcano. - ACPI power management updates Changes to make suspend/resume work correctly in Xen guests from Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk, sparse warning fix from Fengguang Wu and cleanups and fixes of the ACPI device power state selection routine. - ACPI documentation updates Some previously missing pieces of ACPI documentation are added by Lv Zheng and Aaron Lu (hopefully, that will help people to uderstand how the ACPI subsystem works) and one outdated doc is updated by Hanjun Guo. - Assorted ACPI updates We finally nailed down the IA-64 issue that was the reason for reverting commit 9f29ab11ddbf ("ACPI / scan: do not match drivers against objects having scan handlers"), so we can fix it and move the ACPI scan handler check added to the ACPI video driver back to the core. A mechanism for adding CMOS RTC address space handlers is introduced by Lan Tianyu to allow some EC-related breakage to be fixed on some systems. A spec-compliant implementation of acpi_os_get_timer() is added by Mika Westerberg. The evaluation of _STA is added to do_acpi_find_child() to avoid situations in which a pointer to a disabled device object is returned instead of an enabled one with the same _ADR value. From Jeff Wu. Intel BayTrail PCH (Platform Controller Hub) support is added to the ACPI driver for Intel Low-Power Subsystems (LPSS) and that driver is modified to work around a couple of known BIOS issues. Changes from Mika Westerberg and Heikki Krogerus. The EC driver is fixed by Vasiliy Kulikov to use get_user() and put_user() instead of dereferencing user space pointers blindly. Code cleanups are made by Bjorn Helgaas, Nicholas Mazzuca and Toshi Kani. - Assorted power management updates The "runtime idle" helper routine is changed to take the return values of the callbacks executed by it into account and to call rpm_suspend() if they return 0, which allows us to reduce the overall code bloat a bit (by dropping some code that's not necessary any more after that modification). The runtime PM documentation is updated by Alan Stern (to reflect the "runtime idle" behavior change). New trace points for PM QoS are added by Sahara (<keun-o.park@windriver.com>). PM QoS documentation is updated by Lan Tianyu. Code cleanups are made and minor issues are addressed by Bernie Thompson, Bjorn Helgaas, Julius Werner, and Shuah Khan. - devfreq updates New driver for the Exynos5-bus device from Abhilash Kesavan. Minor cleanups, fixes and MAINTAINERS update from MyungJoo Ham, Abhilash Kesavan, Paul Bolle, Rajagopal Venkat, and Wei Yongjun. - OMAP power management updates Adaptive Voltage Scaling (AVS) SmartReflex voltage control driver updates from Andrii Tseglytskyi and Nishanth Menon." * tag 'pm+acpi-3.11-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm: (162 commits) cpufreq: Fix cpufreq regression after suspend/resume ACPI / PM: Fix possible NULL pointer deref in acpi_pm_device_sleep_state() PM / Sleep: Warn about system time after resume with pm_trace cpufreq: don't leave stale policy pointer in cdbs->cur_policy acpi-cpufreq: Add new sysfs attribute freqdomain_cpus cpufreq: make sure frequency transitions are serialized ACPI: implement acpi_os_get_timer() according the spec ACPI / EC: Add HP Folio 13 to ec_dmi_table in order to skip DSDT scan ACPI: Add CMOS RTC Operation Region handler support ACPI / processor: Drop unused variable from processor_perflib.c cpufreq: tegra: call CPUFREQ_POSTCHANGE notfier in error cases cpufreq: s3c64xx: call CPUFREQ_POSTCHANGE notfier in error cases cpufreq: omap: call CPUFREQ_POSTCHANGE notfier in error cases cpufreq: imx6q: call CPUFREQ_POSTCHANGE notfier in error cases cpufreq: exynos: call CPUFREQ_POSTCHANGE notfier in error cases cpufreq: dbx500: call CPUFREQ_POSTCHANGE notfier in error cases cpufreq: davinci: call CPUFREQ_POSTCHANGE notfier in error cases cpufreq: arm-big-little: call CPUFREQ_POSTCHANGE notfier in error cases cpufreq: powernow-k8: call CPUFREQ_POSTCHANGE notfier in error cases cpufreq: pcc: call CPUFREQ_POSTCHANGE notfier in error cases ...

Some of the pr_debug() statements had rather expensive function calls as part of the arguments, so this code was getting run unnecessarily even on non debug kernels - in some fast paths, too.

2013-06-21tracing: Add DEFINE_EVENT_FN() macroSteven Rostedt
Each TRACE_EVENT() adds several helper functions. If two or more trace events share the same structure and print format, they can also share most of these helper functions and save a lot of space from duplicate code. This is why the DECLARE_EVENT_CLASS() and DEFINE_EVENT() were created. Some events require a trigger to be called at registering and unregistering of the event and to do so they use TRACE_EVENT_FN(). If multiple events require a trigger, they currently have no choice but to use TRACE_EVENT_FN() as there's no DEFINE_EVENT_FN() available. This unfortunately causes a lot of wasted duplicate code created. By adding a DEFINE_EVENT_FN(), these events can still use a DECLARE_EVENT_CLASS() and then define their own triggers.

2013-06-04ext4: restructure writeback pathJan Kara
There are two issues with current writeback path in ext4. For one we don't necessarily map complete pages when blocksize < pagesize and thus needn't do any writeback in one iteration. We always map some blocks though so we will eventually finish mapping the page. Just if writeback races with other operations on the file, forward progress is not really guaranteed. The second problem is that current code structure makes it hard to associate all the bios to some range of pages with one io_end structure so that unwritten extents can be converted after all the bios are finished. This will be especially difficult later when io_end will be associated with reserved transaction handle. We restructure the writeback path to a relatively simple loop which first prepares extent of pages, then maps one or more extents so that no page is partially mapped, and once page is fully mapped it is submitted for IO. We keep all the mapping and IO submission information in mpage_da_data structure to somewhat reduce stack usage. Resulting code is somewhat shorter than the old one and hopefully also easier to read.

2013-05-28ext4: make punch hole code path work with bigallocLukas Czerner
Currently punch hole is disabled in file systems with bigalloc feature enabled. However the recent changes in punch hole patch should make it easier to support punching holes on bigalloc enabled file systems. This commit changes partial_cluster handling in ext4_remove_blocks(), ext4_ext_rm_leaf() and ext4_ext_remove_space(). Currently partial_cluster is unsigned long long type and it makes sure that we will free the partial cluster if all extents has been released from that cluster. However it has been specifically designed only for truncate. With punch hole we can be freeing just some extents in the cluster leaving the rest untouched. So we have to make sure that we will notice cluster which still has some extents. To do this I've changed partial_cluster to be signed long long type. The only scenario where this could be a problem is when cluster_size == block size, however in that case there would not be any partial clusters so we're safe. For bigger clusters the signed type is enough. Now we use the negative value in partial_cluster to mark such cluster used, hence we know that we must not free it even if all other extents has been freed from such cluster. This scenario can be described in simple diagram: |FFF...FF..FF.UUU| ^----------^ punch hole . - free space | - cluster boundary F - freed extent U - used extent Also update respective tracepoints to use signed long long type for partial_cluster.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip Pull 'full dynticks' support from Ingo Molnar: "This tree from Frederic Weisbecker adds a new, (exciting! :-) core kernel feature to the timer and scheduler subsystems: 'full dynticks', or CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL=y. This feature extends the nohz variable-size timer tick feature from idle to busy CPUs (running at most one task) as well, potentially reducing the number of timer interrupts significantly. This feature got motivated by real-time folks and the -rt tree, but the general utility and motivation of full-dynticks runs wider than that: - HPC workloads get faster: CPUs running a single task should be able to utilize a maximum amount of CPU power. A periodic timer tick at HZ=1000 can cause a constant overhead of up to 1.0%. This feature removes that overhead - and speeds up the system by 0.5%-1.0% on typical distro configs even on modern systems. - Real-time workload latency reduction: CPUs running critical tasks should experience as little jitter as possible. The last remaining source of kernel-related jitter was the periodic timer tick. - A single task executing on a CPU is a pretty common situation, especially with an increasing number of cores/CPUs, so this feature helps desktop and mobile workloads as well. The cost of the feature is mainly related to increased timer reprogramming overhead when a CPU switches its tick period, and thus slightly longer to-idle and from-idle latency. Configuration-wise a third mode of operation is added to the existing two NOHZ kconfig modes: - CONFIG_HZ_PERIODIC: [formerly !CONFIG_NO_HZ], now explicitly named as a config option. This is the traditional Linux periodic tick design: there's a HZ tick going on all the time, regardless of whether a CPU is idle or not. - CONFIG_NO_HZ_IDLE: [formerly CONFIG_NO_HZ=y], this turns off the periodic tick when a CPU enters idle mode. - CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL: this new mode, in addition to turning off the tick when a CPU is idle, also slows the tick down to 1 Hz (one timer interrupt per second) when only a single task is running on a CPU. The .config behavior is compatible: existing !CONFIG_NO_HZ and CONFIG_NO_HZ=y settings get translated to the new values, without the user having to configure anything. CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL is turned off by default. This feature is based on a lot of infrastructure work that has been steadily going upstream in the last 2-3 cycles: related RCU support and non-periodic cputime support in particular is upstream already. This tree adds the final pieces and activates the feature. The pull request is marked RFC because: - it's marked 64-bit only at the moment - the 32-bit support patch is small but did not get ready in time. - it has a number of fresh commits that came in after the merge window. The overwhelming majority of commits are from before the merge window, but still some aspects of the tree are fresh and so I marked it RFC. - it's a pretty wide-reaching feature with lots of effects - and while the components have been in testing for some time, the full combination is still not very widely used. That it's default-off should reduce its regression abilities and obviously there are no known regressions with CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL=y enabled either. - the feature is not completely idempotent: there is no 100% equivalent replacement for a periodic scheduler/timer tick. In particular there's ongoing work to map out and reduce its effects on scheduler load-balancing and statistics. This should not impact correctness though, there are no known regressions related to this feature at this point. - it's a pretty ambitious feature that with time will likely be enabled by most Linux distros, and we'd like you to make input on its design/implementation, if you dislike some aspect we missed. Without flaming us to crisp! :-) Future plans: - there's ongoing work to reduce 1Hz to 0Hz, to essentially shut off the periodic tick altogether when there's a single busy task on a CPU. We'd first like 1 Hz to be exposed more widely before we go for the 0 Hz target though. - once we reach 0 Hz we can remove the periodic tick assumption from nr_running>=2 as well, by essentially interrupting busy tasks only as frequently as the sched_latency constraints require us to do - once every 4-40 msecs, depending on nr_running. I am personally leaning towards biting the bullet and doing this in v3.10, like the -rt tree this effort has been going on for too long - but the final word is up to you as usual.
