2008-01-25cpu-hotplug: replace per-subsystem mutexes with get_online_cpus()Gautham R Shenoy
This patch converts the known per-subsystem mutexes to get_online_cpus put_online_cpus. It also eliminates the CPU_LOCK_ACQUIRE and CPU_LOCK_RELEASE hotplug notification events. Signed-off-by: Gautham R Shenoy <ego@in.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2008-01-25cpu-hotplug: replace lock_cpu_hotplug() with get_online_cpus()Gautham R Shenoy
Replace all lock_cpu_hotplug/unlock_cpu_hotplug from the kernel and use get_online_cpus and put_online_cpus instead as it highlights the refcount semantics in these operations. The new API guarantees protection against the cpu-hotplug operation, but it doesn't guarantee serialized access to any of the local data structures. Hence the changes needs to be reviewed. In case of pseries_add_processor/pseries_remove_processor, use cpu_maps_update_begin()/cpu_maps_update_done() as we're modifying the cpu_present_map there.

2008-01-25cpu-hotplug: refcount based cpu hotplugGautham R Shenoy
This patch implements a Refcount + Waitqueue based model for cpu-hotplug. Now, a thread which wants to prevent cpu-hotplug, will bump up a global refcount and the thread which wants to perform a cpu-hotplug operation will block till the global refcount goes to zero. The readers, if any, during an ongoing cpu-hotplug operation are blocked until the cpu-hotplug operation is over.

2007-10-19Use helpers to obtain task pid in printksPavel Emelyanov
The task_struct->pid member is going to be deprecated, so start using the helpers (task_pid_nr/task_pid_vnr/task_pid_nr_ns) in the kernel. The first thing to start with is the pid, printed to dmesg - in this case we may safely use task_pid_nr(). Besides, printks produce more (much more) than a half of all the explicit pid usage.

2007-10-18cpu hotplug: cpu: deliver CPU_UP_CANCELED only to NOTIFY_OKed callbacks with ↵Akinobu Mita
CPU_UP_PREPARE The functions in a CPU notifier chain is called with CPU_UP_PREPARE event before making the CPU online. If one of the callback returns NOTIFY_BAD, it stops to deliver CPU_UP_PREPARE event, and CPU online operation is canceled. Then CPU_UP_CANCELED event is delivered to the functions in a CPU notifier chain again. This CPU_UP_CANCELED event is delivered to the functions which have been called with CPU_UP_PREPARE, not delivered to the functions which haven't been called with CPU_UP_PREPARE. The problem that makes existing cpu hotplug error handlings complex is that the CPU_UP_CANCELED event is delivered to the function that has returned NOTIFY_BAD, too. Usually we don't expect to call destructor function against the object that has failed to initialize. It is like: err = register_something(); if (err) { unregister_something(); return err; } So it is natural to deliver CPU_UP_CANCELED event only to the functions that have returned NOTIFY_OK with CPU_UP_PREPARE event and not to call the function that have returned NOTIFY_BAD. This is what this patch is doing. Otherwise, every cpu hotplug notifiler has to track whether notifiler event is failed or not for each cpu. (drivers/base/topology.c is doing this with topology_dev_map) Similary this patch makes same thing with CPU_DOWN_PREPARE and CPU_DOWN_FAILED evnets.

2007-05-09Add suspend-related notifications for CPU hotplugRafael J. Wysocki
Since nonboot CPUs are now disabled after tasks and devices have been frozen and the CPU hotplug infrastructure is used for this purpose, we need special CPU hotplug notifications that will help the CPU-hotplug-aware subsystems distinguish normal CPU hotplug events from CPU hotplug events related to a system-wide suspend or resume operation in progress. This patch introduces such notifications and causes them to be used during suspend and resume transitions. It also changes all of the CPU-hotplug-aware subsystems to take these notifications into consideration (for now they are handled in the same way as the corresponding "normal" ones).

2007-05-09Define and use new events,CPU_LOCK_ACQUIRE and CPU_LOCK_RELEASEGautham R Shenoy
This is an attempt to provide an alternate mechanism for postponing a hotplug event instead of using a global mechanism like lock_cpu_hotplug. The proposal is to add two new events namely CPU_LOCK_ACQUIRE and CPU_LOCK_RELEASE. The notification for these two events would be sent out before and after a cpu_hotplug event respectively. During the CPU_LOCK_ACQUIRE event, a cpu-hotplug-aware subsystem is supposed to acquire any per-subsystem hotcpu mutex ( Eg. workqueue_mutex in kernel/workqueue.c ). During the CPU_LOCK_RELEASE release event the cpu-hotplug-aware subsystem is supposed to release the per-subsystem hotcpu mutex. The reasons for defining new events as opposed to reusing the existing events like CPU_UP_PREPARE/CPU_UP_FAILED/CPU_ONLINE for locking/unlocking of per-subsystem hotcpu mutexes are as follow: - CPU_LOCK_ACQUIRE: All hotcpu mutexes are taken before subsystems start handling pre-hotplug events like CPU_UP_PREPARE/CPU_DOWN_PREPARE etc, thus ensuring a clean handling of these events. - CPU_LOCK_RELEASE: The hotcpu mutexes will be released only after all subsystems have handled post-hotplug events like CPU_DOWN_FAILED, CPU_DEAD,CPU_ONLINE etc thereby ensuring that there are no subsequent clashes amongst the interdependent subsystems after a cpu hotplugs. This patch also uses __raw_notifier_call chain in _cpu_up to take care of the dependency between the two consequetive calls to raw_notifier_call_chain.

2007-04-02[PATCH] Fix microcode-related suspend problemRafael J. Wysocki
Fix the regression resulting from the recent change of suspend code ordering that causes systems based on Intel x86 CPUs using the microcode driver to hang during the resume. The problem occurs since the microcode driver uses request_firmware() in its CPU hotplug notifier, which is called after tasks has been frozen and hangs. It can be fixed by telling the microcode driver to use the microcode stored in memory during the resume instead of trying to load it from disk. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

Since __cpuinit would map to __init with this kind of a configuration, we get a .text refering .init.data warning. This patch solves the problem by converting all of __cpu_up, _cpu_up and cpu_up from __devinit to __cpuinit. The approach is justified since the callers of cpu_up are either dependent on CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU or are of __init type. Thus when CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU=y, all these cpu up functions would land up in .text section, and when CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU=n, all these functions would land up in .init section.

2006-10-17[PATCH] Convert cpu hotplug notifiers to use raw_notifier instead of ↵Neil Brown
blocking_notifier The use of blocking notifier by _cpu_up and _cpu_down in cpu.c has two problem. 1/ An interaction with the workqueue notifier causes lockdep to spit a warning. 2/ A notifier could conceivable be added or removed while _cpu_up or _cpu_down are in process. As each notifier is called twice (prepare then commit/abort) this could be unhealthy. To fix to we simply take cpu_add_remove_lock while adding or removing notifiers to/from the list. This makes the 'blocking' usage unnecessary as all accesses to cpu_chain are now protected by cpu_add_remove_lock. So change "blocking" to "raw" in all relevant places. This fixes 1.

2006-09-26[PATCH] Disable CPU hotplug during suspendRafael J. Wysocki
The current suspend code has to be run on one CPU, so we use the CPU hotplug to take the non-boot CPUs offline on SMP machines. However, we should also make sure that these CPUs will not be enabled by someone else after we have disabled them. The functions disable_nonboot_cpus() and enable_nonboot_cpus() are moved to kernel/cpu.c, because they now refer to some stuff in there that should better be static. Also it's better if disable_nonboot_cpus() returns an error instead of panicking if something goes wrong, and enable_nonboot_cpus() has no reason to panic(), because the CPUs may have been enabled by the userland before it tries to take them online.

2006-07-23cpu hotplug: simplify and hopefully fix lockingLinus Torvalds
The CPU hotplug locking was quite messy, with a recursive lock to handle the fact that both the actual up/down sequence wanted to protect itself from being re-entered, but the callbacks that it called also tended to want to protect themselves from CPU events. This splits the lock into two (one to serialize the whole hotplug sequence, the other to protect against the CPU present bitmaps changing). The latter still allows recursive usage because some subsystems (ondemand policy for cpufreq at least) had already gotten too used to the lax locking, but the locking mistakes are hopefully now less fundamental, and we now warn about recursive lock usage when we see it, in the hope that it can be fixed.

2006-03-27[PATCH] Notifier chain update: API changesAlan Stern
The kernel's implementation of notifier chains is unsafe. There is no protection against entries being added to or removed from a chain while the chain is in use. The issues were discussed in this thread: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=113018709002036&w=2 We noticed that notifier chains in the kernel fall into two basic usage classes: "Blocking" chains are always called from a process context and the callout routines are allowed to sleep; "Atomic" chains can be called from an atomic context and the callout routines are not allowed to sleep. We decided to codify this distinction and make it part of the API. Therefore this set of patches introduces three new, parallel APIs: one for blocking notifiers, one for atomic notifiers, and one for "raw" notifiers (which is really just the old API under a new name). New kinds of data structures are used for the heads of the chains, and new routines are defined for registration, unregistration, and calling a chain. The three APIs are explained in include/linux/notifier.h and their implementation is in kernel/sys.c. With atomic and blocking chains, the implementation guarantees that the chain links will not be corrupted and that chain callers will not get messed up by entries being added or removed. For raw chains the implementation provides no guarantees at all; users of this API must provide their own protections. (The idea was that situations may come up where the assumptions of the atomic and blocking APIs are not appropriate, so it should be possible for users to handle these things in their own way.) There are some limitations, which should not be too hard to live with. For atomic/blocking chains, registration and unregistration must always be done in a process context since the chain is protected by a mutex/rwsem. Also, a callout routine for a non-raw chain must not try to register or unregister entries on its own chain. (This did happen in a couple of places and the code had to be changed to avoid it.) Since atomic chains may be called from within an NMI handler, they cannot use spinlocks for synchronization. Instead we use RCU. The overhead falls almost entirely in the unregister routine, which is okay since unregistration is much less frequent that calling a chain. Here is the list of chains that we adjusted and their classifications. None of them use the raw API, so for the moment it is only a placeholder. ATOMIC CHAINS ------------- arch/i386/kernel/traps.c: i386die_chain arch/ia64/kernel/traps.c: ia64die_chain arch/powerpc/kernel/traps.c: powerpc_die_chain arch/sparc64/kernel/traps.c: sparc64die_chain arch/x86_64/kernel/traps.c: die_chain drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_si_intf.c: xaction_notifier_list kernel/panic.c: panic_notifier_list kernel/profile.c: task_free_notifier net/bluetooth/hci_core.c: hci_notifier net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_conntrack_core.c: ip_conntrack_chain net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_conntrack_core.c: ip_conntrack_expect_chain net/ipv6/addrconf.c: inet6addr_chain net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_core.c: nf_conntrack_chain net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_core.c: nf_conntrack_expect_chain net/netlink/af_netlink.c: netlink_chain BLOCKING CHAINS --------------- arch/powerpc/platforms/pseries/reconfig.c: pSeries_reconfig_chain arch/s390/kernel/process.c: idle_chain arch/x86_64/kernel/process.c idle_notifier drivers/base/memory.c: memory_chain drivers/cpufreq/cpufreq.c cpufreq_policy_notifier_list drivers/cpufreq/cpufreq.c cpufreq_transition_notifier_list drivers/macintosh/adb.c: adb_client_list drivers/macintosh/via-pmu.c sleep_notifier_list drivers/macintosh/via-pmu68k.c sleep_notifier_list drivers/macintosh/windfarm_core.c wf_client_list drivers/usb/core/notify.c usb_notifier_list drivers/video/fbmem.c fb_notifier_list kernel/cpu.c cpu_chain kernel/module.c module_notify_list kernel/profile.c munmap_notifier kernel/profile.c task_exit_notifier kernel/sys.c reboot_notifier_list net/core/dev.c netdev_chain net/decnet/dn_dev.c: dnaddr_chain net/ipv4/devinet.c: inetaddr_chain It's possible that some of these classifications are wrong. If they are, please let us know or submit a patch to fix them. Note that any chain that gets called very frequently should be atomic, because the rwsem read-locking used for blocking chains is very likely to incur cache misses on SMP systems. (However, if the chain's callout routines may sleep then the chain cannot be atomic.)

2005-11-28[PATCH] clean up lock_cpu_hotplug() in cpufreqAshok Raj
There are some callers in cpufreq hotplug notify path that the lowest function calls lock_cpu_hotplug(). The lock is already held during cpu_up() and cpu_down() calls when the notify calls are broadcast to registered clients. Ideally if possible, we could disable_preempt() at the highest caller and make sure we dont sleep in the path down in cpufreq->driver_target() calls but the calls are so intertwined and cumbersome to cleanup. Hence we consistently use lock_cpu_hotplug() and unlock_cpu_hotplug() in all places. - Removed export of cpucontrol semaphore and made it static. - removed explicit uses of up/down with lock_cpu_hotplug() so we can keep track of the the callers in same thread context and just keep refcounts without calling a down() that causes a deadlock. - Removed current_in_hotplug() uses - Removed PF_HOTPLUG_CPU in sched.h introduced for the current_in_hotplug() temporary workaround. Tested with insmod of cpufreq_stat.ko, and logical online/offline to make sure we dont have any hang situations.

2005-11-09[PATCH] cpu hotplug: fix locking in cpufreq driversAshok Raj
When calling target drivers to set frequency, we take cpucontrol lock. When we modified the code to accomodate CPU hotplug, there was an attempt to take a double lock of cpucontrol leading to a deadlock. Since the current thread context is already holding the cpucontrol lock, we dont need to make another attempt to acquire it. Now we leave a trace in current->flags indicating current thread already is under cpucontrol lock held, so we dont attempt to do this another time. Thanks to Andrew Morton for the beating:-) From: Brice Goglin <Brice.Goglin@ens-lyon.org> Build fix (akpm: this patch is still unpleasant.

2005-10-31[PATCH] create and destroy cpufreq sysfs entries based on cpu notifiersAshok Raj
cpufreq entries in sysfs should only be populated when CPU is online state. When we either boot with maxcpus=x and then boot the other cpus by echoing to sysfs online file, these entries should be created and destroyed when CPU_DEAD is notified. Same treatement as cache entries under sysfs. We place the processor in the lowest frequency, so hw managed P-State transitions can still work on the other threads to save power. Primary goal was to just make these directories appear/disapper dynamically. There is one in this patch i had to do, which i really dont like myself but probably best if someone handling the cpufreq infrastructure could give this code right treatment if this is not acceptable. I guess its probably good for the first cut. - Converting lock_cpu_hotplug()/unlock_cpu_hotplug() to disable/enable preempt. The locking was smack in the middle of the notification path, when the hotplug is already holding the lock. I tried another solution to avoid this so avoid taking locks if we know we are from notification path. The solution was getting very ugly and i decided this was probably good for this iteration until someone who understands cpufreq could do a better job than me. (akpm: export cpucontrol to GPL modules: drivers/cpufreq/cpufreq_stats.c now does lock_cpu_hotplug()) Signed-off-by: Ashok Raj <ashok.raj@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Venkatesh Pallipadi <venkatesh.pallipadi@intel.com> Cc: Dave Jones <davej@codemonkey.org.uk> Cc: Zwane Mwaikambo <zwane@holomorphy.com> Cc: Greg KH <greg@kroah.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2005-06-25[PATCH] i386 CPU hotplugZwane Mwaikambo
(The i386 CPU hotplug patch provides infrastructure for some work which Pavel is doing as well as for ACPI S3 (suspend-to-RAM) work which Li Shaohua <shaohua.li@intel.com> is doing) The following provides i386 architecture support for safely unregistering and registering processors during runtime, updated for the current -mm tree. In order to avoid dumping cpu hotplug code into kernel/irq/* i dropped the cpu_online check in do_IRQ() by modifying fixup_irqs(). The difference being that on cpu offline, fixup_irqs() is called before we clear the cpu from cpu_online_map and a long delay in order to ensure that we never have any queued external interrupts on the APICs. There are additional changes to s390 and ppc64 to account for this change. 1) Add CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU 2) disable local APIC timer on dead cpus. 3) Disable preempt around irq balancing to prevent CPUs going down. 4) Print irq stats for all possible cpus. 5) Debugging check for interrupts on offline cpus. 6) Hacky fixup_irqs() to redirect irqs when cpus go off/online. 7) play_dead() for offline cpus to spin inside. 8) Handle offline cpus set in flush_tlb_others(). 9) Grab lock earlier in smp_call_function() to prevent CPUs going down. 10) Implement __cpu_disable() and __cpu_die(). 11) Enable local interrupts in cpu_enable() after fixup_irqs() 12) Don't fiddle with NMI on dead cpu, but leave intact on other cpus. 13) Program IRQ affinity whilst cpu is still in cpu_online_map on offline.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
