* oprofile: Adding switch counter to oprofile statistic variablesRobert Richter2009-07-20
| | | | | | | | | This patch moves the multiplexing switch counter from x86 code to common oprofile statistic variables. Now the value will be available and usable for all architectures. The initialization and incrementation also moved to common code. Signed-off-by: Robert Richter <robert.richter@amd.com>
* x86/oprofile: Implement mux_clone()Robert Richter2009-07-20
| | | | | | | | To setup a counter for all cpus, its structure is cloned from cpu 0. This patch implements mux_clone() to do this part for multiplexing data. Signed-off-by: Robert Richter <robert.richter@amd.com>
* x86/oprofile: Enable multiplexing only if the model supports itRobert Richter2009-07-20
| | | | | | | | This patch checks if the model supports multiplexing. Only then multiplexing will be enabled. The code is added to the common x86 initialization. Signed-off-by: Robert Richter <robert.richter@amd.com>
* x86/oprofile: Add function has_mux() to check multiplexing supportRobert Richter2009-07-20
| | | | | | | | The check is used to prevent running multiplexing code for models not supporting multiplexing. Before, the code was running but without effect. Signed-off-by: Robert Richter <robert.richter@amd.com>
* x86/oprofile: Modify initialization of num_virt_countersRobert Richter2009-07-20
| | | | | | | | | Models that do not yet support counter multiplexing have to setup num_virt_counters. This patch implements the setup from num_counters if num_virt_counters is not set. Thus, num_virt_counters must be setup only for multiplexing support. Signed-off-by: Robert Richter <robert.richter@amd.com>

* oprofile: Implement performance counter multiplexingJason Yeh2009-07-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The number of hardware counters is limited. The multiplexing feature enables OProfile to gather more events than counters are provided by the hardware. This is realized by switching between events at an user specified time interval. A new file (/dev/oprofile/time_slice) is added for the user to specify the timer interval in ms. If the number of events to profile is higher than the number of hardware counters available, the patch will schedule a work queue that switches the event counter and re-writes the different sets of values into it. The switching mechanism needs to be implemented for each architecture to support multiplexing. This patch only implements AMD CPU support, but multiplexing can be easily extended for other models and architectures. There are follow-on patches that rework parts of this patch.

Fortunately, if we lose this race, the only time this will actually cause filesystem corruption is if there is a system crash or other unclean shutdown of the system before the next commit can take place.

In particular, calls to ext4_forget() would not to a brelse() on the input buffer head, which will cause pages they belong to to not be reclaimable. Further investigation showed that all places where ext4_journal_forget() and ext4_journal_revoke() are called are subject to the same problem. The patch below changes __ext4_journal_forget/__ext4_journal_revoke to do an explicit release of the buffer head when the journal handle isn't valid.

Now if we get a writepage callback immediately after (4) and before an attempt to write at any other offset via mmap address (which implies we are yet to get a pagefault and do a get_block) what we would have is the page which is dirty have first block allocated and the other three buffer_heads unmapped. In the above case the writepage should go ahead and try to write the first blocks and clear the page_dirty flag. Further attempts to write to the page will again create a fault and result in allocating blocks and marking page dirty. If we don't write any other offset via mmap address we would still have written the first block to the disk and rest of the space will be considered as a hole. So to address this, we change all of the places where we look for delayed, unmapped, or unwritten buffer heads, and only check for delayed or unwritten buffer heads instead.

This will fix ext4_set_aops() to set ext4_da_ops in the case of delayed allocation; otherwise ext4_journaled_aops gets used by default, which doesn't handle delayed allocation properly. The advantage of using ext4_should_writeback_data() approach is that it should handle nobh better as well.

So when the write fails, we add inode to orphan list. But symlinks don't have .truncate method defined so nobody properly removes them from the on disk orphan list. Fix this by calling ext4_truncate() directly instead of calling vmtruncate() (which is saner anyway since we don't need anything vmtruncate() does except from calling .truncate in these paths). We also add inode to orphan list only if ext4_can_truncate() is true (currently, it can be false for symlinks when there are no blocks allocated) - otherwise orphan list processing will complain and ext4_truncate() will not remove inode from on-disk orphan list.

Since the filesystem code relies on the fact that journaled buffers cannot be written out, it does not take the buffer lock and so it can modify buffer while it is under writeout. That can lead to a filesystem corruption if we crash at the right moment. We fix the problem by clearing the buffer dirty bit under buffer_lock even if the buffer is on BJ_None list. Actually, we clear the dirty bit regardless the list the buffer is in and warn about the fact if the buffer is already journalled.

With all the static functions in mballoc.c, gcc helpfully inlines for us, and we get something like this: ext4_mb_regular_allocator (232 bytes stack) ext4_mb_init_cache (232 bytes stack) submit_bh (starts 464 deeper) the 2 ext4 functions here get several others inlined; by telling gcc not to inline them, we can save stack space for when we head off into submit_bh land and associated block layer callchains. The following noinlined functions are only called once, so this won't impact any other callchains: ext4_mb_regular_allocator (104) (was 232) ext4_mb_find_by_goal (56) (noinlined) ext4_mb_init_group (24) (noinlined) ext4_mb_init_cache (136) (was 232) ext4_mb_generate_buddy (88) (noinlined) ext4_mb_generate_from_pa (40) (noinlined) submit_bh ext4_mb_simple_scan_group (24) (noinlined) ext4_mb_scan_aligned (56) (noinlined) ext4_mb_complex_scan_group (40) (noinlined) ext4_mb_try_best_found (24) (noinlined) now when we head off into submit_bh() we're only 264 bytes deeper in stack than when we entered ext4_mb_regular_allocator() (vs. 464 bytes before). Every 200 bytes helps. :) Signed-off-by: Eric Sandeen <sandeen@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>

This could cause a deadlock if the system is low on memory and it attempts a memory reclaim, which could potentially call back into ext4. So we need to call find_or_create_page() directly, and remove the __GFP_FP flag to avoid this potential deadlock. Thanks to Roland Dreier for reporting a lockdep warning which showed this problem.
