* x86: Fix user return notifier put_cpu_var() invocationStephen Rothwell2009-11-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Today's linux-next build (x86_64 allmodconfig) failed like this: kernel/user-return-notifier.c: In function 'fire_user_return_notifiers': kernel/user-return-notifier.c:45: error: expected expression before ')' token Introduced by commit 7c68af6e32c73992bad24107311f3433c89016e2 ("core, x86: Add user return notifiers") from the tip and kvm trees but revealed by commit e0fdb0e050eae331046385643618f12452aa7e73 ("percpu: add __percpu for sparse") from the percpu tree. Before that percpu tree commit, "put_cpu_var()" would compile without error (even though it really needs a parameter).

* core, x86: Add user return notifiersAvi Kivity2009-10-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add a general per-cpu notifier that is called whenever the kernel is about to return to userspace. The notifier uses a thread_info flag and existing checks, so there is no impact on user return or context switch fast paths. This will be used initially to speed up KVM task switching by lazily updating MSRs.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since commit 9b22ea560957de1484e6b3e8538f7eef202e3596 ( net: fix packet socket delivery in rx irq handler ) We lost rx timestamping of packets received on accelerated vlans. Effect is that tcpdump on real dev can show strange timings, since it gets rx timestamps too late (ie at skb dequeueing time, not at skb queueing time) 14:47:26.986871 IP 192.168.20.110 > 192.168.20.141: icmp 64: echo request seq 1 14:47:26.986786 IP 192.168.20.141 > 192.168.20.110: icmp 64: echo reply seq 1 14:47:27.986888 IP 192.168.20.110 > 192.168.20.141: icmp 64: echo request seq 2 14:47:27.986781 IP 192.168.20.141 > 192.168.20.110: icmp 64: echo reply seq 2 14:47:28.986896 IP 192.168.20.110 > 192.168.20.141: icmp 64: echo request seq 3 14:47:28.986780 IP 192.168.20.141 > 192.168.20.110: icmp 64: echo reply seq 3 Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

That is not so - and causes some subtle scheduler misbehavior due to incorrect timestamps off to up by ~4 seconds. Two symptoms are known right now: - interactivity problems seen by Arjan: up to 600 msecs latencies instead of the expected 20-40 msecs. These latencies are very visible on the desktop. - incorrect CPU stats: occasionally too high percentages in 'top', and crazy CPU usage stats.

This patch turns cmpxchg64() into an efficient implementation that uses the alternative() mechanism to just use the raw instruction on all modern systems. Note: the fallback is NOT smp safe, just like the current fallback is not SMP safe. (Interested parties with i486 based SMP systems are welcome to submit fix patches for that.)

The original intention of the code was to initialize .flags with both flags ored together. The broken C code as actually implemented will be compiled by an equally broken gcc to use only the last initialization, that is IRQF_PERCPU which means this turned into an SMTC bug for 2.6.23 and newer.] The semantic match that finds this problem is as follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/) // <smpl> @r@ identifier I, s, fld; position p0,p; expression E; @@ struct I s =@p0 { ... .fld@p = E, ...}; @s@ identifier I, s, r.fld; position r.p0,p; expression E; @@ struct I s =@p0 { ... .fld@p = E, ...}; @script:python@ p0 << r.p0; fld << r.fld; ps << s.p; pr << r.p; @@ if int(ps[0].line)!=int(pr[0].line) or int(ps[0].column)!=int(pr[0].column): cocci.print_main(fld,p0) // </smpl> Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk> Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org>

The problem was reported from users with the title "[NILFS users] Fail to mount NILFS." (Message-ID: <200908211918.34720.yuri@itinteg.net>), and so forth. I've also experienced the corruption multiple times on kernel 2.6.30 and 2.6.31. The problem turned out to be caused due to discordance between mapping->nrpages of a btree node cache and the actual number of pages hung on the cache; if the mapping->nrpages becomes zero even as it has pages, truncate_inode_pages() returns without doing anything. Usually this is harmless except it may cause page leak, but garbage collection fairly infrequently sees a stale page remained in the btree node cache of DAT (i.e. disk address translation file of nilfs), and induces the corruption. I identified a missing initialization in btree node caches was the root cause. This corrects the bug. I've tested this for kernel 2.6.30 and 2.6.31.

This patch adds a forward declaration for that struct, so this tracepoint header can still be used by tools like SystemTap.

By ripping out the mb_history code and replacing it with ftrace tracepoints, and we get more functionality: timestamps, event filtering, the ability to correlate mballoc history with other ext4 tracepoints, etc. Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There are a number of kernel printk's which are printed when an ext4 filesystem is mounted and unmounted. Disable them to economize space in the system logs. In addition, disabling the mballoc stats by default saves a number of unneeded atomic operations for every block allocation or deallocation.

| * | | | ext4: Avoid updating the inode table bh twice in no journal modeFrank Mayhar2009-09-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is a cleanup of commit 91ac6f4. Since ext4_mark_inode_dirty() has already called ext4_mark_iloc_dirty(), which in turn calls ext4_do_update_inode(), it's not necessary to have ext4_write_inode() call ext4_do_update_inode() in no journal mode.

| * | | | ext4: async direct IO for holes and fallocate supportMingming Cao2009-09-28

But when fsync is called after all the data is completed, user expects the metadata also being updated before fsync returns. Thus we need to flush the conversion work when fsync() is called. This patch keep track of a listed of completed async direct io that has a work queued on workqueue. When fsync() is called, it will go through the list and do the conversion.

| * | | | ext4: Use end_io callback to avoid direct I/O fallback to buffered I/OMingming Cao2009-09-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently the DIO VFS code passes create = 0 when writing to the middle of file. It does this to avoid block allocation for holes, so as not to expose stale data out when there is a parallel buffered read (which does not hold the i_mutex lock). Direct I/O writes into holes falls back to buffered IO for this reason. Since preallocated extents are treated as holes when doing a get_block() look up (buffer is not mapped), direct IO over fallocate also falls back to buffered IO. Thus ext4 actually silently falls back to buffered IO in above two cases, which is undesirable. To fix this, this patch creates unitialized extents when a direct I/O write into holes in sparse files, and registering an end_io callback which converts the uninitialized extent to an initialized extent after the I/O is completed.

This avoids needing to deal with an ENOSPC error in the end_io callback that gets used for direct I/O. When the IO is complete, the written extent will be marked as initialized.

This also works around limitations in the ext4 block allocator, which can't allocate more than 2048 blocks at a time. So we need to defeat the round-robin characteristics of the writeback code and try to write out as many blocks in one inode before allowing the writeback code to move on to another inode. We add a a new per-filesystem tunable, max_writeback_mb_bump, which caps this to a default of 128mb per inode. Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>
