15 years agocirrusfb: Laguna chipset 8bpp fix
Krzysztof Helt [Tue, 31 Mar 2009 22:25:08 +0000 (15:25 -0700)]
cirrusfb: Laguna chipset 8bpp fix

Fix 8bpp mode by adding handling of the Laguna chipsets to various places
and stop trashing a HDR register which probably does not exist on the
Laguna.

Fix compilation warnings about uninitialized variables also.

Finally, all 8bpp, 16bpp and 32bpp modes work on the Laguna chipset.

- kill btype variables if they were

Ian Kent [Tue, 31 Mar 2009 22:24:45 +0000 (15:24 -0700)]
autofs4: fix lookup deadlock

A deadlock can occur when user space uses a signal (autofs version 4 uses
SIGCHLD for this) to effect expire completion.

The order of events is:

Expire process completes, but before being able to send SIGCHLD to it's parent
...

Another process walks onto a different mount point and drops the directory
inode semaphore prior to sending the request to the daemon as it must ...

A third process does an lstat on on the expired mount point causing it to wait
on expire completion (unfortunately) holding the directory semaphore.

The mount request then arrives at the daemon which does an lstat and,
deadlock.

For some time I was concerned about releasing the directory semaphore around
the expire wait in autofs4_lookup as well as for the mount call back.  I
finally realized that the last round of changes in this function made the
expiring dentry and the lookup dentry separate and distinct so the check and
possible wait can be done anywhere prior to the mount call back.  This patch
moves the check to just before the mount call back and inside the directory
inode mutex release.

Davide Libenzi [Tue, 31 Mar 2009 22:24:20 +0000 (15:24 -0700)]
epoll keyed wakeups: add __wake_up_locked_key() and __wake_up_sync_key()

This patchset introduces wakeup hints for some of the most popular (from
epoll POV) devices, so that epoll code can avoid spurious wakeups on its
waiters.

The problem with epoll is that the callback-based wakeups do not, ATM,
carry any information about the events the wakeup is related to.  So the
only choice epoll has (not being able to call f_op->poll() from inside the
callback), is to add the file* to a ready-list and resolve the real events
later on, at epoll_wait() (or its own f_op->poll()) time.  This can cause
spurious wakeups, since the wake_up() itself might be for an event the
caller is not interested into.

The rate of these spurious wakeup can be pretty high in case of many
network sockets being monitored.

By allowing devices to report the events the wakeups refer to (at least
the two major classes - POLLIN/POLLOUT), we are able to spare useless
wakeups by proper handling inside the epoll's poll callback.

Epoll will have in any case to call f_op->poll() on the file* later on,
since the change to be done in order to have the full event set sent via
wakeup, is too invasive for the way our f_op->poll() system works (the
full event set is calculated inside the poll function - there are too many
of them to even start thinking the change - also poll/select would need
change too).

Epoll is changed in a way that both devices which send event hints, and
the ones that don't, are correctly handled.  The former will gain some
efficiency though.

As a general rule for devices, would be to add an event mask by using
key-aware wakeup macros, when making up poll wait queues.  I tested it
(together with the epoll's poll fix patch Andrew has in -mm) and wakeups
for the supported devices are correctly filtered.

Test program available here:

http://www.xmailserver.org/epoll_test.c

This patch:

Nothing revolutionary here.  Just using the available "key" that our
wakeup core already support.  The __wake_up_locked_key() was no brainer,
since both __wake_up_locked() and __wake_up_locked_key() are thin wrappers
around __wake_up_common().

The __wake_up_sync() function had a body, so the choice was between
borrowing the body for __wake_up_sync_key() and calling it from
__wake_up_sync(), or make an inline and calling it from both.  I chose the
former since in most archs it all resolves to "mov $0, REG; jmp ADDR".

15 years agoeventfd: improve support for semaphore-like behavior
Davide Libenzi [Tue, 31 Mar 2009 22:24:18 +0000 (15:24 -0700)]
eventfd: improve support for semaphore-like behavior

People started using eventfd in a semaphore-like way where before they
were using pipes.

That is, counter-based resource access.  Where a "wait()" returns
immediately by decrementing the counter by one, if counter is greater than
zero.  Otherwise will wait.  And where a "post(count)" will add count to
the counter releasing the appropriate amount of waiters.  If eventfd the
"post" (write) part is fine, while the "wait" (read) does not dequeue 1,
but the whole counter value.

The problem with eventfd is that a read() on the fd returns and wipes the
whole counter, making the use of it as semaphore a little bit more
cumbersome.  You can do a read() followed by a write() of COUNTER-1, but
IMO it's pretty easy and cheap to make this work w/out extra steps.  This
patch introduces a new eventfd flag that tells eventfd to only dequeue 1
from the counter, allowing simple read/write to make it behave like a
semaphore.  Simple test here:

http://www.xmailserver.org/eventfd-sem.c

To be back-compatible with earlier kernels, userspace applications should
probe for the availability of this feature via

#ifdef EFD_SEMAPHORE
fd = eventfd2 (CNT, EFD_SEMAPHORE);
if (fd == -1 && errno == EINVAL)
<fallback>
#else
<fallback>
#endif

epoll: remove unnecessary xchg

xchg in ep_unregister_pollwait() is unnecessary because it is protected by
either epmutex or ep->mtx (the same protection as ep_remove()).

If xchg was necessary, it would be insufficient to protect against
problems: if multiple concurrent calls to ep_unregister_pollwait() were
possible then a second caller that returns without doing anything because
nwait == 0 could return before the waitqueues are removed by the first
caller, which looks like it could lead to problematic races with
ep_poll_callback().

So remove xchg and add comments about the locking.

Davide Libenzi [Tue, 31 Mar 2009 22:24:10 +0000 (15:24 -0700)]
epoll: fix epoll's own poll

Fix a bug inside the epoll's f_op->poll() code, that returns POLLIN even
though there are no actual ready monitored fds.  The bug shows up if you
add an epoll fd inside another fd container (poll, select, epoll).

The problem is that callback-based wake ups used by epoll does not carry
(patches will follow, to fix this) any information about the events that
actually happened.  So the callback code, since it can't call the file*
->poll() inside the callback, chains the file* into a ready-list.

So, suppose you added an fd with EPOLLOUT only, and some data shows up on
the fd, the file* mapped by the fd will be added into the ready-list (via
wakeup callback).  During normal epoll_wait() use, this condition is
sorted out at the time we're actually able to call the file*'s
f_op->poll().

Inside the old epoll's f_op->poll() though, only a quick check
!list_empty(ready-list) was performed, and this could have led to
reporting POLLIN even though no ready fds would show up at a following
epoll_wait().  In order to correctly report the ready status for an epoll
fd, the ready-list must be checked to see if any really available fd+event
would be ready in a following epoll_wait().

Operation (calling f_op->poll() from inside f_op->poll()) that, like wake
ups, must be handled with care because of the fact that epoll fds can be
added to other epoll fds.

The timeout thaw originally proposed did not get merged, but perhaps
something like this would be useful in emergencies.

For example, freeze /path/to/mountpoint may freeze your root filesystem if

I chose 'j' as the last remaining character other than 'h' which is sort
of reserved for help (because help is generated on any unknown character).

I've tested this on a non-root fs with multiple (nested) freezers, as well

Hugh Dickins [Tue, 31 Mar 2009 22:23:33 +0000 (15:23 -0700)]
shmem: writepage directly to swap

Synopsis: if shmem_writepage calls swap_writepage directly, most shmem
swap loads benefit, and a catastrophic interaction between SLUB and some
flash storage is avoided.

shmem_writepage() has always been peculiar in making no attempt to write:
it has just transferred a shmem page from file cache to swap cache, then
let that page make its way around the LRU again before being written and
freed.

The idea was that people use tmpfs because they want those pages to stay
in RAM; so although we give it an overflow to swap, we should resist
writing too soon, giving those pages a second chance before they can be
reclaimed.

That was always questionable, and I've toyed with this patch for years;
but never had a clear justification to depart from the original design.

It became more questionable in 2.6.28, when the split LRU patches classed
shmem and tmpfs pages as SwapBacked rather than as file_cache: that in
itself gives them more resistance to reclaim than normal file pages.  I
prepared this patch for 2.6.29, but the merge window arrived before I'd
completed gathering statistics to justify sending it in.

Then while comparing SLQB against SLUB, running SLUB on a laptop I'd
habitually used with SLAB, I found SLUB to run my tmpfs kbuild swapping
tests five times slower than SLAB or SLQB - other machines slower too, but
nowhere near so bad.  Simpler "cp -a" swapping tests showed the same.

slub_max_order=0 brings sanity to all, but heavy swapping is too far from
normal to justify such a tuning.  The crucial factor on that laptop turns
out to be that I'm using an SD card for swap.  What happens is this:

By default, SLUB uses order-2 pages for shmem_inode_cache (and many other
fs inodes), so creating tmpfs files under memory pressure brings lumpy
reclaim into play.  One subpage of the order is chosen from the bottom of
the LRU as usual, then the other three picked out from their random
positions on the LRUs.

In a tmpfs load, many of these pages will be ones which already passed
through shmem_writepage, so already have swap allocated.  And though their
offsets on swap were probably allocated sequentially, now that the pages
are picked off at random, their swap offsets are scattered.

But the flash storage on the SD card is very sensitive to having its
writes merged: once swap is written at scattered offsets, performance
falls apart.  Rotating disk seeks increase too, but less disastrously.

So: stop giving shmem/tmpfs pages a second pass around the LRU, write them
out to swap as soon as their swap has been allocated.

It's surely possible to devise an artificial load which runs faster the
old way, one whose sizing is such that the tmpfs pages on their second
pass are the ones that are wanted again, and other pages not.

But I've not yet found such a load: on all machines, under the loads I've
tried, immediate swap_writepage speeds up shmem swapping: especially when
using the SLUB allocator (and more effectively than slub_max_order=0), but
also with the others; and it also reduces the variance between runs.  How
much faster varies widely: a factor of five is rare, 5% is common.

One load which might have suffered: imagine a swapping shmem load in a
limited mem_cgroup on a machine with plenty of memory.  Before 2.6.29 the
swapcache was not charged, and such a load would have run quickest with
the shmem swapcache never written to swap.  But now swapcache is charged,
so even this load benefits from shmem_writepage directly to swap.

Apologies for the #ifndef CONFIG_SWAP swap_writepage() stub in swap.h:

fs: fix page_mkwrite error cases in core code and btrfs

page_mkwrite is called with neither the page lock nor the ptl held.  This
means a page can be concurrently truncated or invalidated out from
underneath it.  Callers are supposed to prevent truncate races themselves,
however previously the only thing they can do in case they hit one is to
raise a SIGBUS.  A sigbus is wrong for the case that the page has been
invalidated or truncated within i_size (eg.  hole punched).  Callers may
also have to perform memory allocations in this path, where again, SIGBUS
would be wrong.

The previous patch ("mm: page_mkwrite change prototype to match fault")
made it possible to properly specify errors.  Convert the generic buffer.c
code and btrfs to return sane error values (in the case of page removed
from pagecache, VM_FAULT_NOPAGE will cause the fault handler to exit
without doing anything, and the fault will be retried properly).

This fixes core code, and converts btrfs as a template/example.  All other
filesystems defining their own page_mkwrite should be fixed in a similar
manner.

15 years agomm: enable hashdist by default on 64bit NUMA

mm: enable hashdist by default on 64bit NUMA

On PowerPC we allocate large boot time hashes on node 0.  This leads to an
imbalance in the free memory, for example on a 64GB box (4 x 16GB nodes):

Free memory:
Node 0: 97.03%
Node 1: 98.54%
Node 2: 98.42%
Node 3: 98.53%

If we switch to using vmalloc (like ia64 and x86-64) things are more
balanced:

Free memory:
Node 0: 97.53%
Node 1: 98.35%
Node 2: 98.33%
Node 3: 98.33%

For many HPC applications we are limited by the free available memory on
the smallest node, so even though the same amount of memory is used the
better balancing helps.

Since all 64bit NUMA capable architectures should have sufficient vmalloc
space, it makes sense to enable it via CONFIG_64BIT.
