| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Including libio.h causes build failures on uClibc systems (which lack libio.h). It appears that libio.h was only included to pull in a definition for NULL, so it has been replaced by stddef.h. On powerpc, libio.h was conditionally included, but could be removed completely as it is unneeded. Also, the included of stdlib.h was changed to stddef.h (as again, only NULL is needed).

* tracing: Do not return EINVAL in snapshot when not allocatedSteven Rostedt (Red Hat)2013-03-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | To use the tracing snapshot feature, writing a '1' into the snapshot file causes the snapshot buffer to be allocated if it has not already been allocated and dose a 'swap' with the main buffer, so that the snapshot now contains what was in the main buffer, and the main buffer now writes to what was the snapshot buffer. To free the snapshot buffer, a '0' is written into the snapshot file. To clear the snapshot buffer, any number but a '0' or '1' is written into the snapshot file. But if the file is not allocated it returns -EINVAL error code. This is rather pointless. It is better just to do nothing and return success.

Also, this is a good place to show if the snapshot has been allocated or not. Users may want to "pre allocate" the snapshot to have a fast "swap" of the current buffer. Otherwise, a swap would be slow and might fail as it would need to allocate the snapshot buffer, and that might fail under tight memory constraints.

|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The prompt to enable DYNAMIC_FTRACE (the ability to nop and enable function tracing at run time) had a confusing statement: "enable/disable ftrace tracepoints dynamically" This was written before tracepoints were added to the kernel, but now that tracepoints have been added, this is very confusing and has confused people enough to give wrong information during presentations. Not only that, I looked at the help text, and it still references that dreaded daemon that use to wake up once a second to update the nop locations and brick NICs, that hasn't been around for over five years.

| * ftrace: Call ftrace cleanup module notifier after all other notifiersSteven Rostedt (Red Hat)2013-02-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit: c1bf08ac "ftrace: Be first to run code modification on modules" changed ftrace module notifier's priority to INT_MAX in order to process the ftrace nops before anything else could touch them (namely kprobes). This was the correct thing to do. Unfortunately, the ftrace module notifier also contains the ftrace clean up code. As opposed to the set up code, this code should be run *after* all the module notifiers have run in case a module is doing correct clean-up and unregisters its ftrace hooks. Basically, ftrace needs to do clean up on module removal, as it needs to know about code being removed so that it doesn't try to modify that code. But after it removes the module from its records, if a ftrace user tries to remove a probe, that removal will fail due as the record of that code segment no longer exists. Nothing really bad happens if the probe removal is called after ftrace did the clean up, but the ftrace removal function will return an error. Correct code (such as kprobes) will produce a WARN_ON() if it fails to remove the probe. As people get annoyed by frivolous warnings, it's best to do the ftrace clean up after everything else. By splitting the ftrace_module_notifier into two notifiers, one that does the module load setup that is run at high priority, and the other that is called for module clean up that is run at low priority, the problem is solved.

The calls are obviously incorrect, and confusing. Other efforts have been made to fix this: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/3/26/367 But the real solution is to rewrite the syscall internals and come up with a fixed solution. One that doesn't require all the kluge that the current solution has. Thus for now, instead of outputting incorrect data, simply ignore them. With this patch the changes now have: #> grep lls /debug/tracing/trace #> Compat system calls simply are not traced. If users need compat syscalls, then they should just use the raw syscall tracepoints. For an architecture to make their compat syscalls ignored, it must define ARCH_TRACE_IGNORE_COMPAT_SYSCALLS (done in asm/ftrace.h) and also define an arch_trace_is_compat_syscall() function that will return true if the current task should ignore tracing the syscall. I want to stress that this change does not affect actual syscalls in any way, shape or form. It is only used within the tracing system and doesn't interfere with the syscall logic at all. The changes are consolidated nicely into trace_syscalls.c and asm/ftrace.h. I had to make one small modification to asm/thread_info.h and that was to remove the include of asm/ftrace.h. As asm/ftrace.h required the current_thread_info() it was causing include hell. That include was added back in 2008 when the function graph tracer was added: commit caf4b323 "tracing, x86: add low level support for ftrace return tracing" It does not need to be included there.

| * | async: initialise list heads to fix crashJames Hogan2013-01-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 9fdb04cdc55 ("async: replace list of active domains with global list of pending items") added a struct list_head global_list in struct async_entry, which isn't initialised. This means that if !domain->registered at __async_schedule(), then list_del_init() will be called on the list head in async_run_entry_fn with both pointers NULL, causing a crash. This is fixed by initialising both the global_list and domain_list list_heads after kzalloc'ing the entry. This was noticed due to dapm_power_widgets() which uses ASYNC_DOMAIN_EXCLUSIVE, which initialises the domain->registered to 0.

While this isn't necessarily a complex scheme, it can easily be simplified by keeping global list of the pending items of all registered active domains instead of list of domains and simply using the globl pending list the same way as domain syncing. This patch replaces async_domains with async_global_pending and update lowest_in_progress() to use the global pending list if @domain is %NULL. async_synchronize_full_domain(NULL) is now allowed and equivalent to async_synchronize_full(). As no one is calling with NULL domain, this doesn't affect any existing users. async_register_mutex is no longer necessary and dropped.

| * | async: keep pending tasks on async_domain and remove async_pendingTejun Heo2013-01-23

When an async item is queued, it's put on the global pending list. The item is moved to the per-domain running list when its execution starts. At this point, this design complicates execution and synchronization without bringing any benefit. The list only matters for synchronization which doesn't care whether a given async item is pending or executing. Also, global synchronization is done by iterating through all active registered async_domains, so the global async_pending list doesn't help anything either. Rename async_domain->running to async_domain->pending and put async items directly there and remove when execution completes. This simplifies lowest_in_progress() a lot - the first item on the pending list is the one with the lowest cookie, and async_run_entry_fn() doesn't have to mess with moving the item from pending to running. After the change, whether a domain is empty or not can be trivially determined by looking at async_domain->pending. Remove async_domain->count and use list_empty() on pending instead.

| * | async: use ULLONG_MAX for infinity cookie valueTejun Heo2013-01-23

In most cases, this should work fine but it theoretically could bring subtle behavior difference between async_synchronize_full() and async_synchronize_full_domain(). async_synchronize_full() keeps waiting until there's no registered async_entry left regardless of what next_cookie was when the function was called. It guarantees that the queue is completely drained at least once before returning. However, async_synchronize_full_domain() doesn't. It synchronizes upto next_cookie and if further async jobs are queued after the next_cookie value to synchronize is decided, they won't be waited for. For unrelated async jobs, the behavior difference doesn't matter; however, if async jobs which are related (nested or otherwise) to the executing ones are queued while sychronization is in progress, the resulting behavior difference could be problematic. This can be easily fixed by using ULLONG_MAX as the infinity value instead. Define ASYNC_COOKIE_MAX as ULLONG_MAX and use it as the infinity value for synchronization. This makes async_synchronize_full_domain() fully drain the domain at least once before returning, making its behavior match async_synchronize_full().

Later on, struct async_domain was added. For some reason, while the conversion substituted list_heads with async_domains, the variable names weren't fully converted. In more places, "running" was used for struct async_domain while other places adopted new "domain" name. The situation is made much worse by having async_domain's running list named "domain" and async_entry's field pointing to async_domain named "running". So, we end up with mix of "running" and "domain" for variable names for async_domain, with the field names of async_domain and async_entry swapped between "running" and "domain". It feels almost intentionally made to be as confusing as possible.

Block layer has been updated not to do default elevator auto-loading and it has been decided to disallow synchronous request_module() from async workers.

This is achieved by automatically invoking request_module() whenever a new block device is initialized and the elevator is not available. This led to an interesting deadlock problem involving async and module init. Block device probing running off an async job invokes request_module(). While the module is being loaded, it performs async_synchronize_full() which ends up waiting for the async job which is already waiting for request_module() to finish, leading to deadlock. Invoking request_module() from deep in block device init path is already nasty in itself. It seems best to avoid these situations from the beginning by moving on-demand module loading out of block init path. The previous patch made sure that the default elevator module is loaded early during boot if available. This patch removes on-demand loading of the default elevator from elevator init path. As the module would have been loaded during boot, userland-visible behavior difference should be minimal. For more details, please refer to the following thread. http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/1420814 v2: The bool parameter was named @request_module which conflicted with request_module().

Bulk of changes this round are about promoting worker_pools as the top level abstraction replacing global_cwq (global cpu workqueue). At this point, I'm fairly confident about getting custom worker pools working pretty soon and ready for the next merge window.

For details, please read the commit message of 0b3dae68ac ("workqueue: simplify is-work-item-queued-here test"). While the change ends up adding one pointer to struct delayed_work, the inflation in percentage is less than five percent and it decouples delayed_work logic a lot more cleaner from usual work handling, removes the unusual memory barrier dancing, and allows for further simplification, so I think the trade-off is acceptable.

Fix it by using for_each_cwq_cpu() instead, which is the better one to use anyway as we only need to check pools that the wq is associated with. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>
| * | | | workqueue: pick cwq instead of pool in __queue_work()Lai Jiangshan2013-02-07

This is a bit backwards in that we can determine cwq first and simply use cwq->pool. This way, we can skip get_std_worker_pool() in queueing path which will be a hurdle when implementing custom worker pools. Update __queue_work() such that it chooses the target cwq and then use cwq->pool instead of the other way around. While at it, add missing {} in an if statement. This patch doesn't introduce any functional changes. tj: The original patch had two get_cwq() calls - the first to determine the pool by doing get_cwq(cpu, wq)->pool and the second to determine the matching cwq from get_cwq(pool->cpu, wq). Updated the function such that it chooses cwq instead of pool and removed the second call. Rewrote the description.

For an off-queue work item, this involves obtaining pool ID from worker->data, performing idr_find() to find the matching pool and then returning its pool->id which of course is the same as the one which went into idr_find(). Just open code WORK_STRUCT_CWQ case and directly return pool ID from work->data. tj: The original patch dropped on-queue work item handling and renamed the function to offq_work_pool_id(). There isn't much benefit in doing so. Handling it only requires a single if() and we need at least BUG_ON(), which is also a branch, even if we drop on-queue handling. Open code WORK_STRUCT_CWQ case and keep the function in line with get_work_pool(). Rewrote the description.

| * | | | workqueue: move nr_running into worker_poolTejun Heo2013-02-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As nr_running is likely to be accessed from other CPUs during try_to_wake_up(), it was kept outside worker_pool; however, while less frequent, other fields in worker_pool are accessed from other CPUs for, e.g., non-reentrancy check. Also, with recent pool related changes, accessing nr_running matching the worker_pool isn't as simple as it used to be. Move nr_running inside worker_pool. Keep it aligned to cacheline and define CPU pools using DEFINE_PER_CPU_SHARED_ALIGNED(). This should give at least the same cacheline behavior. get_pool_nr_running() is replaced with direct pool->nr_running accesses.

It goes like the following. * When a work item is queued on a pool, work->data is updated before work->entry is linked to the pending list with a wmb() inbetween. * When trying to determine whether a work item is currently queued on a pool pointed to by work->data, it locks the pool and looks at work->entry. If work->entry is linked, we then do rmb() and then check whether work->data points to the current pool. This works because, work->data can only point to a pool if it currently is or were on the pool and, * If it currently is on the pool, the tests would obviously succeed. * It it left the pool, its work->entry was cleared under pool->lock, so if we're seeing non-empty work->entry, it has to be from the work item being linked on another pool. Because work->data is updated before work->entry is linked with wmb() inbetween, work->data update from another pool is guaranteed to be visible if we do rmb() after seeing non-empty work->entry. So, we either see empty work->entry or we see updated work->data pointin to another pool. While this works, it's convoluted, to put it mildly. With recent updates, it's now guaranteed that work->data points to cwq only while the work item is queued and that updating work->data to point to cwq or back to pool is done under pool->lock, so we can simply test whether work->data points to cwq which is associated with the currently locked pool instead of the convoluted memory barrier dancing. This patch replaces the memory barrier based "are you still here, really?" test with much simpler "does work->data points to me?" test - if work->data points to a cwq which is associated with the currently locked pool, the work item is guaranteed to be queued on the pool as work->data can start and stop pointing to such cwq only under pool->lock and the start and stop coincide with queue and dequeue. tj: Rewrote the comments and description.
