* mm, vmalloc: change iterating a vmlist to find_vm_area()Joonsoo Kim2013-04-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patchset removes vm_struct list management after initializing vmalloc. Adding and removing an entry to vmlist is linear time complexity, so it is inefficient. If we maintain this list, overall time complexity of adding and removing area to vmalloc space is O(N), although we use rbtree for finding vacant place and it's time complexity is just O(logN). And vmlist and vmlist_lock is used many places of outside of vmalloc.c. It is preferable that we hide this raw data structure and provide well-defined function for supporting them, because it makes that they cannot mistake when manipulating theses structure and it makes us easily maintain vmalloc layer. For kexec and makedumpfile, I export vmap_area_list, instead of vmlist. This comes from Atsushi's recommendation. For more information, please refer below link. https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/12/6/184 This patch: The purpose of iterating a vmlist is finding vm area with specific virtual address. find_vm_area() is provided for this purpose and more efficient, because it uses a rbtree. So change it.

* swap: add per-partition lock for swapfileShaohua Li2013-02-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | swap_lock is heavily contended when I test swap to 3 fast SSD (even slightly slower than swap to 2 such SSD). The main contention comes from swap_info_get(). This patch tries to fix the gap with adding a new per-partition lock. Global data like nr_swapfiles, total_swap_pages, least_priority and swap_list are still protected by swap_lock. nr_swap_pages is an atomic now, it can be changed without swap_lock. In theory, it's possible get_swap_page() finds no swap pages but actually there are free swap pages. But sounds not a big problem. Accessing partition specific data (like scan_swap_map and so on) is only protected by swap_info_struct.lock. Changing swap_info_struct.flags need hold swap_lock and swap_info_struct.lock, because scan_scan_map() will check it. read the flags is ok with either the locks hold. If both swap_lock and swap_info_struct.lock must be hold, we always hold the former first to avoid deadlock. swap_entry_free() can change swap_list. To delete that code, we add a new highest_priority_index. Whenever get_swap_page() is called, we check it. If it's valid, we use it. It's a pity get_swap_page() still holds swap_lock(). But in practice, swap_lock() isn't heavily contended in my test with this patch (or I can say there are other much more heavier bottlenecks like TLB flush). And BTW, looks get_swap_page() doesn't really need the lock. We never free swap_info[] and we check SWAP_WRITEOK flag. The only risk without the lock is we could swapout to some low priority swap, but we can quickly recover after several rounds of swap, so sounds not a big deal to me. But I'd prefer to fix this if it's a real problem. "swap: make each swap partition have one address_space" improved the swapout speed from 1.7G/s to 2G/s. This patch further improves the speed to 2.3G/s, so around 15% improvement. It's a multi-process test, so TLB flush isn't the biggest bottleneck before the patches.

In the second try, since the page is in page cache now, ra->mmap_miss is decreased. And these are done in one fault, so we can't detect random mmap file access. Add a new flag to indicate .fault is tried once. In the second try, skip ra->mmap_miss decreasing. The filemap_fault state machine is ok with it.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The tilegx PCI root complex support (currently only in linux-next) is limited to pages that are homed on cached in the default manner, i.e. "hash-for-home". This change supports delivery of I/O data to pages that are cached in other ways (locally on a particular core, uncached, user-managed incoherent, etc.). A large part of the change is supporting flushing pages from cache on particular homes so that we can transition the data that we are delivering to or from the device appropriately. The new homecache_finv* routines handle this. Some changes to page_table_range_init() were also required to make the fixmap code work correctly on tilegx; it hadn't been used there before. We also remove some stub mark_caches_evicted_*() routines that were just no-ops anyway. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>

* arch/tile: support multiple huge page sizes dynamicallyChris Metcalf2012-05-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This change adds support for a new "super" bit in the PTE, using the new arch_make_huge_pte() method. The Tilera hypervisor sees the bit set at a given level of the page table and gangs together 4, 16, or 64 consecutive pages from that level of the hierarchy to create a larger TLB entry. One extra "super" page size can be specified at each of the three levels of the page table hierarchy on tilegx, using the "hugepagesz" argument on the boot command line. A new hypervisor API is added to allow Linux to tell the hypervisor how many PTEs to gang together at each level of the page table. To allow pre-allocating huge pages larger than the buddy allocator can handle, this change modifies the Tilera bootmem support to put all of memory on tilegx platforms into bootmem. As part of this change I eliminate the vestigial CONFIG_HIGHPTE support, which never worked anyway, and eliminate the hv_page_size() API in favor of the standard vma_kernel_pagesize() API.

* arch/tile: Allow tilegx to build with either 16K or 64K page sizeChris Metcalf2012-05-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This change introduces new flags for the hv_install_context() API that passes a page table pointer to the hypervisor. Clients can explicitly request 4K, 16K, or 64K small pages when they install a new context. In practice, the page size is fixed at kernel compile time and the same size is always requested every time a new page table is installed. The <hv/hypervisor.h> header changes so that it provides more abstract macros for managing "page" things like PFNs and page tables. For example there is now a HV_DEFAULT_PAGE_SIZE_SMALL instead of the old HV_PAGE_SIZE_SMALL. The various PFN routines have been eliminated and only PA- or PTFN-based ones remain (since PTFNs are always expressed in fixed 2KB "page" size). The page-table management macros are renamed with a leading underscore and take page-size arguments with the presumption that clients will use those macros in some single place to provide the "real" macros they will use themselves. I happened to notice the old hv_set_caching() API was totally broken (it assumed 4KB pages) so I changed it so it would nominally work correctly with other page sizes. Tag modules with the page size so you can't load a module built with a conflicting page size. (And add a test for SMP while we're at it.) Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>
* arch/tile: use interrupt critical sections lessChris Metcalf2012-05-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In general we want to avoid ever touching memory while within an interrupt critical section, since the page fault path goes through a different path from the hypervisor when in an interrupt critical section, and we carefully decided with tilegx that we didn't need to support this path in the kernel. (On tilepro we did implement that path as part of supporting atomic instructions in software.) In practice we always need to touch the kernel stack, since that's where we store the interrupt state before releasing the critical section, but this change cleans up a few things. The IRQ_ENABLE macro is split up so that when we want to enable interrupts in a deferred way (e.g. for cpu_idle or for interrupt return) we can read the per-cpu enable mask before entering the critical section. The cache-migration code is changed to use interrupt masking instead of interrupt critical sections. And, the interrupt-entry code is changed so that we defer loading "tp" from per-cpu data until after we have released the interrupt critical section.

I've built all the working defconfigs from all the arches that I can and made sure that they don't break. The reason for these patches is that I recently encountered a circular dependency problem that came about when I produced some patches to optimise get_order() by rewriting it to use ilog2(). This uses bitops - and on the SH arch asm/bitops.h drags in asm-generic/get_order.h by a circuituous route involving asm/system.h. The main difficulty seems to be asm/system.h. It holds a number of low level bits with no/few dependencies that are commonly used (eg. memory barriers) and a number of bits with more dependencies that aren't used in many places (eg. switch_to()). These patches break asm/system.h up into the following core pieces: (1) asm/barrier.h Move memory barriers here. This already done for MIPS and Alpha. (2) asm/switch_to.h Move switch_to() and related stuff here. (3) asm/exec.h Move arch_align_stack() here. Other process execution related bits could perhaps go here from asm/processor.h. (4) asm/cmpxchg.h Move xchg() and cmpxchg() here as they're full word atomic ops and frequently used by atomic_xchg() and atomic_cmpxchg(). (5) asm/bug.h Move die() and related bits.

* | coredump: remove VM_ALWAYSDUMP flagJason Baron2012-03-23
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The motivation for this patchset was that I was looking at a way for a qemu-kvm process, to exclude the guest memory from its core dump, which can be quite large. There are already a number of filter flags in /proc/<pid>/coredump_filter, however, these allow one to specify 'types' of kernel memory, not specific address ranges (which is needed in this case). Since there are no more vma flags available, the first patch eliminates the need for the 'VM_ALWAYSDUMP' flag. The flag is used internally by the kernel to mark vdso and vsyscall pages. However, it is simple enough to check if a vma covers a vdso or vsyscall page without the need for this flag. The second patch then replaces the 'VM_ALWAYSDUMP' flag with a new 'VM_NODUMP' flag, which can be set by userspace using new madvise flags: 'MADV_DONTDUMP', and unset via 'MADV_DODUMP'. The core dump filters continue to work the same as before unless 'MADV_DONTDUMP' is set on the region. The qemu code which implements this features is at: http://people.redhat.com/~jbaron/qemu-dump/qemu-dump.patch In my testing the qemu core dump shrunk from 383MB -> 13MB with this patch. I also believe that the 'MADV_DONTDUMP' flag might be useful for security sensitive apps, which might want to select which areas are dumped. This patch: The VM_ALWAYSDUMP flag is currently used by the coredump code to indicate that a vma is part of a vsyscall or vdso section. However, we can determine if a vma is in one these sections by checking it against the gate_vma and checking for a non-NULL return value from arch_vma_name(). Thus, freeing a valuable vma bit.

| * arch/tile: support signal "exception-trace" hookChris Metcalf2011-05-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This change adds support for /proc/sys/debug/exception-trace to tile. Like x86 and sparc, by default it is set to "1", generating a one-line printk whenever a user process crashes. By setting it to "2", we get a much more complete userspace diagnostic at crash time, including a user-space backtrace, register dump, and memory dump around the address of the crash. Some vestiges of the Tilera-internal version of this support are removed with this patch (the show_crashinfo variable and the arch_coredump_signal function). We retain a "crashinfo" boot parameter which allows you to set the boot-time value of exception-trace. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>
| * arch/tile: finish enabling support for TILE-Gx 64-bit chipChris Metcalf2011-05-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This support was partially present in the existing code (look for "__tilegx__" ifdefs) but with this change you can build a working kernel using the TILE-Gx toolchain and ARCH=tilegx. Most of these files are new, generally adding a foo_64.c file where previously there was just a foo_32.c file. The ARCH=tilegx directive redirects to arch/tile, not arch/tilegx, using the existing SRCARCH mechanism in the top-level Makefile. Changes to existing files: - <asm/bitops.h> and <asm/bitops_32.h> changed to factor the include of <asm-generic/bitops/non-atomic.h> in the common header. - <asm/compat.h> and arch/tile/kernel/compat.c changed to remove the "const" markers I had put on compat_sys_execve() when trying to match some recent similar changes to the non-compat execve. It turns out the compat version wasn't "upgraded" to use const. - <asm/opcode-tile_64.h> and <asm/opcode_constants_64.h> were previously included accidentally, with the 32-bit contents. Now they have the proper 64-bit contents. Finally, I had to hack the existing hacky drivers/input/input-compat.h to add yet another "#ifdef" for INPUT_COMPAT_TEST (same as x86_64).

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This support is required for CONFIG_KEYS, NFSv4 kernel DNS, etc. The change is slightly more complex than the minimal thing, since I took advantage of having to go into the assembly code to just move a bunch of stuff into C code: specifically, the schedule(), do_async_page_fault(), do_signal(), and single_step_once() support, in addition to the TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME support.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit ddd588b5dd55 ("oom: suppress nodes that are not allowed from meminfo on oom kill") moved lib/show_mem.o out of lib/lib.a, which resulted in build warnings on all architectures that implement their own versions of show_mem(): lib/lib.a(show_mem.o): In function `show_mem': show_mem.c:(.text+0x1f4): multiple definition of `show_mem' arch/sparc/mm/built-in.o:(.text+0xd70): first defined here The fix is to remove __show_mem() and add its argument to show_mem() in all implementations to prevent this breakage. Architectures that implement their own show_mem() actually don't do anything with the argument yet, but they could be made to filter nodes that aren't allowed in the current context in the future just like the generic implementation.

* arch/tile: support 4KB page size as well as 64KBChris Metcalf2011-03-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The Tilera architecture traditionally supports 64KB page sizes to improve TLB utilization and improve performance when the hardware is being used primarily to run a single application. For more generic server scenarios, it can be beneficial to run with 4KB page sizes, so this commit allows that to be specified (by modifying the arch/tile/include/hv/pagesize.h header). As part of this change, we also re-worked the PTE management slightly so that PTE writes all go through a __set_pte() function where we can do some additional validation. The set_pte_order() function was eliminated since the "order" argument wasn't being used. One bug uncovered was in the PCI DMA code, which wasn't properly flushing the specified range. This was benign with 64KB pages, but with 4KB pages we were getting some larger flushes wrong. The per-cpu memory reservation code also needed updating to conform with the newer percpu stuff; before it always chose 64KB, and that was always correct, but with 4KB granularity we now have to pay closer attention and reserve the amount of memory that will be requested when the percpu code starts allocating.
