[PATCH] remove set_wmb - arch removal

set_wmb should not be used in the kernel because it just confuses the
code more and has no benefit.  Since it is not currently used in the
kernel this patch removes it so that new code does not include it.

All archs define set_wmb(var, value) to do { var = value; wmb(); }
while(0) except ia64 and sparc which use a mb() instead.  But this is
still moot since it is not used anyway.

Hasn't been tested on any archs but x86 and x86_64 (and only compiled
tested)

18 years ago[PATCH] Remove down_write() from taskstats code invoked on the exit() path
Shailabh Nagar [Fri, 14 Jul 2006 07:24:47 +0000 (00:24 -0700)]
[PATCH] Remove down_write() from taskstats code invoked on the exit() path

In send_cpu_listeners(), which is called on the exit path, a down_write()
was protecting operations like skb_clone() and genlmsg_unicast() that do
GFP_KERNEL allocations.  If the oom-killer decides to kill tasks to satisfy
the allocations,the exit of those tasks could block on the same semphore.

The down_write() was only needed to allow removal of invalid listeners from
the listener list.  The patch converts the down_write to a down_read and
defers the removal to a separate critical region.  This ensures that even
if the oom-killer is called, no other task's exit is blocked as it can
still acquire another down_read.

Thanks to Andrew Morton & Herbert Xu for pointing out the oom related
pitfalls, and to Chandra Seetharaman for suggesting this fix instead of
using something more complex like RCU.

[PATCH] per-task delay accounting taskstats interface: control exit data through cpumasks

On systems with a large number of cpus, with even a modest rate of tasks
exiting per cpu, the volume of taskstats data sent on thread exit can
overflow a userspace listener's buffers.

One approach to avoiding overflow is to allow listeners to get data for a
limited and specific set of cpus.  By scaling the number of listeners
and/or the cpus they monitor, userspace can handle the statistical data
overload more gracefully.

In this patch, each listener registers to listen to a specific set of cpus
by specifying a cpumask.  The interest is recorded per-cpu.  When a task
exits on a cpu, its taskstats data is unicast to each listener interested
in that cpu.

Thanks to Andrew Morton for pointing out the various scalability and
general concerns of previous attempts and for suggesting this design.

[PATCH] per-task delay accounting: avoid send without listeners

Don't send taskstats (per-pid or per-tgid) on thread exit when no one is
listening for such data.

Currently the taskstats interface allocates a structure, fills it in and
calls netlink to send out per-pid and per-tgid stats regardless of whether
a userspace listener for the data exists (netlink layer would check for
that and avoid the multicast).

As a result of this patch, the check for the no-listener case is performed
early, avoiding the redundant allocation and filling up of the taskstats
structures.

Shailabh Nagar [Fri, 14 Jul 2006 07:24:44 +0000 (00:24 -0700)]
[PATCH] delay accounting taskstats interface send tgid once

Send per-tgid data only once during exit of a thread group instead of once
with each member thread exit.

Currently, when a thread exits, besides its per-tid data, the per-tgid data
of its thread group is also sent out, if its thread group is non-empty.
The per-tgid data sent consists of the sum of per-tid stats for all
*remaining* threads of the thread group.

This patch modifies this sending in two ways:

- the per-tgid data is sent only when the last thread of a thread group
  exits.  This cuts down heavily on the overhead of sending/receiving
  per-tgid data, especially when other exploiters of the taskstats
  interface aren't interested in per-tgid stats

- the semantics of the per-tgid data sent are changed.  Instead of being
  the sum of per-tid data for remaining threads, the value now sent is the
  true total accumalated statistics for all threads that are/were part of
  the thread group.

The patch also addresses a minor issue where failure of one accounting
subsystem to fill in the taskstats structure was causing the send of
taskstats to not be sent at all.

The patch has been tested for stability and run cerberus for over 4 hours
on an SMP.

[PATCH] lockdep: core, fix rq-lock handling on __ARCH_WANT_UNLOCKED_CTXSW

On platforms that have __ARCH_WANT_UNLOCKED_CTXSW set and want to implement
lock validator support there's a bug in rq->lock handling: in this case we
dont 'carry over' the runqueue lock into another task - but still we did a
spinlock_release() of it.  Fix this by making the spinlock_release() in
context_switch() dependent on !__ARCH_WANT_UNLOCKED_CTXSW.

(Reported by Ralf Baechle on MIPS, which has __ARCH_WANT_UNLOCKED_CTXSW.
This fixes a lockdep-internal BUG message on such platforms.)

[PATCH] Convert idr's internal locking to _irqsave variant

Currently, the code in lib/idr.c uses a bare spin_lock(&idp->lock) to do
internal locking.  This is a nasty trap for code that might call idr
functions from different contexts; for example, it seems perfectly
reasonable to call idr_get_new() from process context and idr_remove() from
interrupt context -- but with the current locking this would lead to a
potential deadlock.

The simplest fix for this is to just convert the idr locking to use
spin_lock_irqsave().

In particular, this fixes a very complicated locking issue detected by
lockdep, involving the ib_ipoib driver's priv->lock and dev->_xmit_lock,
which get involved with the ib_sa module's query_idr.lock.

[PATCH] i386 kexec: allow the kexec on panic support to compile on voyager

This patch removes the foolish assumption that SMP implied local apics.
That assumption is not-true on the Voyager subarch.  This makes that
dependency explicit, and allows the code to build.

What gets disabled is just an optimization to get better crash dumps so the
support should work if there is a kernel that will initialization on the
voyager subarch under those harsh conditions.

Hopefully we can figure out how to initialize apics in init_IRQ and remove
the need to disable io_apics and this dependency.

Anil Keshavamurthy [Fri, 14 Jul 2006 07:23:57 +0000 (00:23 -0700)]
[PATCH] ia64: race flushing icache in COW path

There is a race condition that showed up in a threaded JIT environment.
The situation is that a process with a JIT code page forks, so the page is
marked read-only, then some threads are created in the child.  One of the
threads attempts to add a new code block to the JIT page, so a
copy-on-write fault is taken, and the kernel allocates a new page, copies
the data, installs the new pte, and then calls lazy_mmu_prot_update() to
flush caches to make sure that the icache and dcache are in sync.
Unfortunately, the other thread runs right after the new pte is installed,
but before the caches have been flushed.  It tries to execute some old JIT
code that was already in this page, but it sees some garbage in the i-cache
from the previous users of the new physical page.

Fix: we must make the caches consistent before installing the pte.  This is
an ia64 only fix because lazy_mmu_prot_update() is a no-op on all other
architectures.
