It is a bit simplified there because there is no need

Eric W. Biederman [Wed, 11 Jan 2006 21:43:12 +0000 (22:43 +0100)]
[PATCH] i386/x86-64: Don't IPI to offline cpus on shutdown

So why are we calling smp_send_stop from machine_halt?

We don't.

Looking more closely at the bug report the problem here
is that halt -p is called which triggers not a halt but
an attempt to power off.

machine_power_off calls machine_shutdown which calls smp_send_stop.

If pm_power_off is set we should never make it out machine_power_off
to the call of do_exit.  So pm_power_off must not be set in this case.
When pm_power_off is not set we expect machine_power_off to devolve
into machine_halt.

So how do we fix this?

Playing too much with smp_send_stop is dangerous because it
must also be safe to be called from panic.

It looks like the obviously correct fix is to only call
machine_shutdown when pm_power_off is defined.  Doing
that will make Andi's assumption about not scheduling
true and generally simplify what must be supported.

This turns machine_power_off into a noop like machine_halt
when pm_power_off is not defined.

If the expected behavior is that sys_reboot(LINUX_REBOOT_CMD_POWER_OFF)
becomes sys_reboot(LINUX_REBOOT_CMD_HALT) if pm_power_off is NULL
this is not quite a comprehensive fix as we pass a different parameter
to the reboot notifier and we set system_state to a different value
before calling device_shutdown().

Unfortunately any fix more comprehensive I can think of is not
obviously correct.  The core problem is that there is no architecture
independent way to detect if machine_power will become a noop, without
calling it.

[PATCH] uml: fix missing KBUILD_BASENAME

2.6.15-mm1 caused kernel-offsets.c to stop compiling with a syntax error in a
header.  The problem was with KBUILD_BASENAME, which didn't get a definition
with the by-hand compilation in the main UML Makefile.

This was OK before since the expansion was syntactically the same as the
KBUILD_BASENAME token.  With -mm1, the expansion is now a quote-delimited
string, so there needs to be a definition of it.

Since kernel-offsets.c is basically the same as other arches' asm-offsets.c,
and those seem to build OK, this patch turns kernel-offsets.c into
asm-offsets.c.  kernel-offsets.c is in arch/um/sys-$(SUBARCH), i.e.  sys-i386
and sys-x86_64, while kbuild expects it to be in arch/um/kernel.
kernel-offsets.c is moved to
arch/um/include/sysdep-$(SUBARCH)/kernel-offsets.h, which is included by
arch/um/kernel/asm-offsets.c.  With that, include/asm-um/asm-offsets.h is
generated automatically.  kernel-offsets.h continues to exist because it needs
to be accessible to userspace UML code, and include/asm-um isn't.  So, a
symlink is made from arch/um/include/kernel-offsets.h to
include/asm-um/asm-offsets.h.

The ip6_xmit() function now assumes that its sk argument is non-NULL,
which isn't currently true when TCPv6 code is sending RST or ACK

[PATCH] powerpc/64: per cpu data optimisations

The current ppc64 per cpu data implementation is quite slow. eg:

        lhz 11,18(13)           /* smp_processor_id() */
        ld 9,.LC63-.LCTOC1(30)  /* per_cpu__variable_name */
        ld 8,.LC61-.LCTOC1(30)  /* __per_cpu_offset */
        sldi 11,11,3            /* form index into __per_cpu_offset */
        mr 10,9
        ldx 9,11,8              /* __per_cpu_offset[smp_processor_id()] */
        ldx 0,10,9              /* load per cpu data */

5 loads for something that is supposed to be fast, pretty awful. One
reason for the large number of loads is that we have to synthesize 2
64bit constants (per_cpu__variable_name and __per_cpu_offset).

By putting __per_cpu_offset into the paca we can avoid the 2 loads
associated with it:

        ld 11,56(13)            /* paca->data_offset */
        ld 9,.LC59-.LCTOC1(30)  /* per_cpu__variable_name */
        ldx 0,9,11              /* load per cpu data

Longer term we can should be able to do even better than 3 loads.
If per_cpu__variable_name wasnt a 64bit constant and paca->data_offset
was in a register we could cut it down to one load. A suggestion from
Rusty is to use gcc's __thread extension here. In order to do this we
would need to free up r13 (the __thread register and where the paca
currently is). So far Ive had a few unsuccessful attempts at doing that :)

The patch also allocates per cpu memory node local on NUMA machines.
This patch from Rusty has been sitting in my queue _forever_ but stalled
when I hit the compiler bug. Sorry about that.

Finally I also only allocate per cpu data for possible cpus, which comes
straight out of the x86-64 port. On a pseries kernel (with NR_CPUS == 128)
and 4 possible cpus we see some nice gains:

             total       used       free     shared    buffers cached
Mem:       4012228     212860    3799368          0          0 162424

             total       used       free     shared    buffers cached
Mem:       4016200     212984    3803216          0          0 162424

A saving of 3.75MB. Quite nice for smaller machines. Note: we now have
to be careful of per cpu users that touch data for !possible cpus.

At this stage it might be worth making the NUMA and possible cpu
optimisations generic, but per cpu init is done so early we have to be
careful that all architectures have their possible map setup correctly.
