fix alpha ISA support

isa_bus_to_virt() is still needed in a few places (lance.c, at least).  When
we switch the kernel to using -Werror-implicit-function-declaration, the lack

slob: initial NUMA support

This adds preliminary NUMA support to SLOB, primarily aimed at systems with
small nodes (tested all the way down to a 128kB SRAM block), whether
asymmetric or otherwise.

We follow the same conventions as SLAB/SLUB, preferring current node
placement for new pages, or with explicit placement, if a node has been
specified.  Presently on UP NUMA this has the side-effect of preferring
node#0 allocations (since numa_node_id() == 0, though this could be
reworked if we could hand off a pfn to determine node placement), so
single-CPU NUMA systems will want to place smaller nodes further out in
terms of node id.  Once a page has been bound to a node (via explicit node
id typing), we only do block allocations from partial free pages that have
a matching node id in the page flags.

The current implementation does have some scalability problems, in that all
partial free pages are tracked in the global freelist (with contention due
to the single spinlock).  However, these are things that are being reworked
for SMP scalability first, while things like per-node freelists can easily
be built on top of this sort of functionality once it's been added.

SLUB: support slub_debug on by default

Add a new configuration variable

CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG_ON

If set then the kernel will be booted by default with slab debugging
switched on. Similar to CONFIG_SLAB_DEBUG. By default slab debugging
is available but must be enabled by specifying "slub_debug" as a

Also add support to switch off slab debugging for a kernel that was

slub_debug=-

17 years agoslob: rework freelist handling
Nick Piggin [Mon, 16 Jul 2007 06:38:07 +0000 (23:38 -0700)]
slob: rework freelist handling

Improve slob by turning the freelist into a list of pages using struct page
fields, then each page has a singly linked freelist of slob blocks via a
pointer in the struct page.

- The first benefit is that the slob freelists can be indexed by a smaller
  type (2 bytes, if the PAGE_SIZE is reasonable).

- Next is that freeing is much quicker because it does not have to traverse
  the entire freelist. Allocation can be slightly faster too, because we can
  skip almost-full freelist pages completely.

- Slob pages are then freed immediately when they become empty, rather than
  having a periodic timer try to free them. This gives efficiency and memory
  consumption improvement.

Then, we don't encode seperate size and next fields into each slob block,
rather we use the sign bit to distinguish between "size" or "next". Then
size 1 blocks contain a "next" offset, and others contain the "size" in
the first unit and "next" in the second unit.

- This allows minimum slob allocation alignment to go from 8 bytes to 2
  bytes on 32-bit and 12 bytes to 2 bytes on 64-bit. In practice, it is
  best to align them to word size, however some architectures (eg. cris)
  could gain space savings from turning off this extra alignment.

Then, make kmalloc use its own slob_block at the front of the allocation
in order to encode allocation size, rather than rely on not overwriting
slob's existing header block.

- This reduces kmalloc allocation overhead similarly to alignment reductions.

- Decouples kmalloc layer from the slob allocator.

Then, add a page flag specific to slob pages.

- This means kfree of a page aligned slob block doesn't have to traverse
  the bigblock list.

I would get benchmarks, but my test box's network doesn't come up with
slob before this patch. I think something is timing out. Anyway, things
are faster after the patch.

Code size goes up about 1K, however dynamic memory usage _should_ be
lower even on relatively small memory systems.

Future todo item is to restore the cyclic free list search, rather than
to always begin at the start.

Make zonelist creation policy selectable from sysctl/boot option v6.

This patch makes NUMA's zonelist (of pgdat) order selectable.
Available order are Default(automatic)/ Node-based / Zone-based.

[Default Order]
The kernel selects Node-based or Zone-based order automatically.

[Node-based Order]
This policy treats the locality of memory as the most important parameter.
Zonelist order is created by each zone's locality. This means lower zones
(ex. ZONE_DMA) can be used before higher zone (ex. ZONE_NORMAL) exhausion.
IOW. ZONE_DMA will be in the middle of zonelist.
current 2.6.21 kernel uses this.

Pros.
 * A user can expect local memory as much as possible.
Cons.
 * lower zone will be exhansted before higher zone. This may cause OOM_KILL.

Maybe suitable if ZONE_DMA is relatively big and you never see OOM_KILL
because of ZONE_DMA exhaution and you need the best locality.

(example)
assume 2 node NUMA. node(0) has ZONE_DMA/ZONE_NORMAL, node(1) has ZONE_NORMAL.

*node(0)'s memory allocation order:

 node(0)'s NORMAL -> node(0)'s DMA -> node(1)'s NORMAL.

*node(1)'s memory allocation order:

 node(1)'s NORMAL -> node(0)'s NORMAL -> node(0)'s DMA.

[Zone-based order]
This policy treats the zone type as the most important parameter.
Zonelist order is created by zone-type order. This means lower zone
never be used bofere higher zone exhaustion.
IOW. ZONE_DMA will be always at the tail of zonelist.

Pros.
 * OOM_KILL(bacause of lower zone) occurs only if the whole zones are exhausted.
Cons.
 * memory locality may not be best.

(example)
assume 2 node NUMA. node(0) has ZONE_DMA/ZONE_NORMAL, node(1) has ZONE_NORMAL.

*node(0)'s memory allocation order:

 node(0)'s NORMAL -> node(1)'s NORMAL -> node(0)'s DMA.

*node(1)'s memory allocation order:

 node(1)'s NORMAL -> node(0)'s NORMAL -> node(0)'s DMA.

bootoption "numa_zonelist_order=" and proc/sysctl is supporetd.

command:
%echo N > /proc/sys/vm/numa_zonelist_order

iterator is (almost, but not quite) linear in the number of elements, as
opposed to the number of integers in the range covered by the idr.  This
makes a difference for sparse idrs, but more importantly, it's a nicer way
to iterate through the elements.

The drm subsystem is moving to idr for tracking contexts and drawables, and
with this change, we can use the idr exclusively for tracking these
resources.

pda_power: clean up irq, timer

Clean up pda_power interrupt handling:

Prior to this patch, the driver would pass information it needed
to the interrupt handler dev_id pointer, and then prompt forget it
ever did so, recreating that same information after a couple passes
through the timer-based state machine.

This patch removes the redundant checks by passing the
pda_power_supply[] pointer through the state machine.  The current
code passed 'irq' through the state machine, as an index to recreate
the pointer, when we could more simply pass around the pointer itself.

This patch makes it easier to remove the 'irq' argument in the future,
in addition to cleaning up the driver today.

[NET_SCHED]: act_api: qdisc internal reclassify support

The behaviour of NET_CLS_POLICE for TC_POLICE_RECLASSIFY was to return
it to the qdisc, which could handle it internally or ignore it. With
NET_CLS_ACT however, tc_classify starts over at the first classifier
and never returns it to the qdisc. This makes it impossible to support
qdisc-internal reclassification, which in turn makes it impossible to
remove the old NET_CLS_POLICE code without breaking compatibility since
we have two qdiscs (CBQ and ATM) that support this.

This patch adds a tc_classify_compat function that handles
reclassification the old way and changes CBQ and ATM to use it.

This again is of course not fully backwards compatible with the previous
NET_CLS_ACT behaviour. Unfortunately there is no way to fully maintain
compatibility *and* support qdisc internal reclassification with
NET_CLS_ACT, but this seems like the better choice over keeping the two
incompatible options around forever.

17 years ago[IPV6]: MSG_ERRQUEUE messages do not pass to connected raw sockets
Dmitry Butskoy [Sun, 15 Jul 2007 06:53:08 +0000 (23:53 -0700)]
[IPV6]: MSG_ERRQUEUE messages do not pass to connected raw sockets

From: Dmitry Butskoy <dmitry@butskoy.name>

Taken from http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8747

Problem Description:

It is related to the possibility to obtain MSG_ERRQUEUE messages from the udp
and raw sockets, both connected and unconnected.

There is a little typo in net/ipv6/icmp.c code, which prevents such messages
to be delivered to the errqueue of the correspond raw socket, when the socket
is CONNECTED.  The typo is due to swap of local/remote addresses.

Consider __raw_v6_lookup() function from net/ipv6/raw.c. When a raw socket is
looked up usual way, it is something like:

sk = __raw_v6_lookup(sk, nexthdr, daddr, saddr, IP6CB(skb)->iif);

where "daddr" is a destination address of the incoming packet (IOW our local
address), "saddr" is a source address of the incoming packet (the remote end).

But when the raw socket is looked up for some icmp error report, in
net/ipv6/icmp.c:icmpv6_notify() , daddr/saddr are obtained from the echoed
fragment of the "bad" packet, i.e.  "daddr" is the original destination
address of that packet, "saddr" is our local address.  Hence, for
icmpv6_notify() must use "saddr, daddr" in its arguments, not "daddr, saddr"
...

Steps to reproduce:

Create some raw socket, connect it to an address, and cause some error
situation: f.e. set ttl=1 where the remote address is more than 1 hop to reach.
Set IPV6_RECVERR .
Then send something and wait for the error (f.e. poll() with POLLERR|POLLIN).
You should receive "time exceeded" icmp message (because of "ttl=1"), but the
socket do not receive it.

If you do not connect your raw socket, you will receive MSG_ERRQUEUE
successfully.  (The reason is that for unconnected socket there are no actual
checks for local/remote addresses).
