| * block: Consolidate phys_segment and hw_segment limitsMartin K. Petersen2010-02-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Except for SCSI no device drivers distinguish between physical and hardware segment limits. Consolidate the two into a single segment limit. Signed-off-by: Martin K. Petersen <martin.petersen@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>
| * block: Rename blk_queue_max_sectors to blk_queue_max_hw_sectorsMartin K. Petersen2010-02-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The block layer calling convention is blk_queue_<limit name>. blk_queue_max_sectors predates this practice, leading to some confusion. Rename the function to appropriately reflect that its intended use is to set max_hw_sectors. Also introduce a temporary wrapper for backwards compability. This can be removed after the merge window is closed. Signed-off-by: Martin K. Petersen <martin.petersen@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>

Looking at the memory layout saved by "xsave", one can't say which state is represented in the memory layout. This is because if a particular state is in init state, in the xsave hdr it can be represented by bit '0'. And hence we can't really say by the xsave header wether a state is in init state or the state is not saved in the memory layout. And hence the xsave memory layout available through this regset interface uses SW usable bytes [464..511] to convey what state is represented in the memory layout. First 8 bytes of the sw_usable_bytes[464..467] will be set to OS enabled xstate mask(which is same as the 64bit mask returned by the xgetbv's xCR0). The note NT_X86_XSTATE represents the extended state information in the core file, using the above mentioned memory layout.

Unfortunately, there are BIOSes, including the VMware BIOS, which report the previous mode if function 0F is queried while the screen is in a VESA mode, and of course, nothing can help a mode poked directly into the hardware. As such, the safe option is to set the mode anyway, and only query to see if we should be using mode 7 rather than mode 3. People who don't want any mode setting at all should probably use vga=0x0f04 (VIDEO_CURRENT_MODE). It's possible that should be the kernel default.

However, we need to also update boot_params.screen_info accordingly, so that the decompression code knows where on the screen the cursor is. Just in case the video BIOS does something extra screwy, read the cursor position back from the BIOS instead of relying on it doing the right thing. While we're at it, make sure we cap the cursor position to the new screen coordinates.

Trivially, a long load that follows a short store will also suffer a penalty. __downgrade_write() in rwsem incurs both penalties: the increment operation will not be able to reuse a recently-loaded rwsem value, and its result will not be reused by any recently-following rwsem operation. A comment in the code states that this is because 64-bit immediates are special and expensive; but while they are slightly special (only a single instruction allows them), they aren't expensive: a test shows that two loops, one loading a 32-bit immediate and one loading a 64-bit immediate, both take 1.5 cycles per iteration. Fix this by changing __downgrade_write to use the same add instruction on i386 and on x86_64, so that it uses the same operand size as all the other rwsem functions.

Change rwsem_count_t to a signed long, so that it is 64 bits on x86-64. This required the following changes to the assembly code: a) %z0 doesn't work on all versions of gcc! At least gcc 4.4.2 as shipped with Fedora 12 emits "ll" not "q" for 64 bits, even for integer operands. Newer gccs apparently do this correctly, but avoid this problem by using the _ASM_ macros instead of %z. b) 64 bits immediates are only allowed in "movq $imm,%reg" constructs... no others. Change some of the constraints to "e", and fix the one case where we would have had to use an invalid immediate -- in that case, we only care about the upper half anyway, so just access the upper half.

So this really does need that whole "make rwsem_count_t be 64-bit and fix the BIAS values to match" extension on top of it, but that is conceptually a totally independent issue. NOT TESTED! The original patch that this all was based on were tested by KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki, but maybe I screwed up something when I created the cleaned-up series, so caveat emptor.. Also note that it _may_ be a good idea to mark some more registers clobbered on x86-64 in the inline asms instead of saving/restoring them. They are inline functions, but they are only used in places where there are not a lot of live registers _anyway_, so doing for example the clobbers of %r8-%r11 in the asm wouldn't make the fast-path code any worse, and would make the slow-path code smaller. (Not that the slow-path really matters to that degree. Saving a few unnecessary registers is the _least_ of our problems when we hit the slow path. The instruction/cycle counting really only matters in the fast path).

We have "long", we have "__s32", and we have "int". To make it work on x86-64, the types suddenly matter a lot more. It can be either a 32-bit or 64-bit signed type, and both work (with the caveat that a 32-bit counter will only have 15 bits of effective write counters, so it's limited to 32767 users). But whatever type you choose, it needs to be used consistently. This makes a new 'rwsem_counter_t', that is a 32-bit signed type. For a 64-bit type, you'd need to also update the BIAS values.

This requires knowledge of the system capacity when attempting to allocate nodes of a certain size: either very large nodes to benchmark scalability of code that operates on individual nodes, or very small nodes to find bugs in the VM. This patch introduces numa=fake=<size>[MG] so it is possible to specify the size of each node to allocate. When used, nodes of the size specified will be allocated and interleaved over the set of physical nodes. FAKE_NODE_MIN_SIZE was also moved to the more-appropriate include/asm/numa_64.h.

Each node size must have be a multiple of FAKE_NODE_MIN_SIZE, otherwise it is possible to get strange alignments. Because of this, the remaining memory from each node when rounded to FAKE_NODE_MIN_SIZE is consolidated into a number of "big nodes" that are bigger than the rest.

This means that the overhead applies even to machines which have a fairly modest amount of high memory and which therefore do not really benefit from allocating PTEs in high memory but still pay the price of the additional mapping operations. Running kernbench on a 4G box I found that with CONFIG_HIGHPTE=y but no actual highptes being allocated there was a reduction in system time used from 59.737s to 55.9s. With CONFIG_HIGHPTE=y and highmem PTEs being allocated: Average Optimal load -j 4 Run (std deviation): Elapsed Time 175.396 (0.238914) User Time 515.983 (5.85019) System Time 59.737 (1.26727) Percent CPU 263.8 (71.6796) Context Switches 39989.7 (4672.64) Sleeps 42617.7 (246.307) With CONFIG_HIGHPTE=y but with no highmem PTEs being allocated: Average Optimal load -j 4 Run (std deviation): Elapsed Time 174.278 (0.831968) User Time 515.659 (6.07012) System Time 55.9 (1.07799) Percent CPU 263.8 (71.266) Context Switches 39929.6 (4485.13) Sleeps 42583.7 (373.039) This patch allows the user to control the allocation of PTEs in highmem from the command line ("userpte=nohigh") but retains the status-quo as the default. It is possible that some simple heuristic could be developed which allows auto-tuning of this option however I don't have a sufficiently large machine available to me to perform any particularly meaningful experiments. We could probably handwave up an argument for a threshold at 16G of total RAM. Assuming 768M of lowmem we have 196608 potential lowmem PTE pages. Each page can map 2M of RAM in a PAE-enabled configuration, meaning a maximum of 384G of RAM could potentially be mapped using lowmem PTEs. Even allowing generous factor of 10 to account for other required lowmem allocations, generous slop to account for page sharing (which reduces the total amount of RAM mappable by a given number of PT pages) and other innacuracies in the estimations it would seem that even a 32G machine would not have a particularly pressing need for highmem PTEs. I think 32G could be considered to be at the upper bound of what might be sensible on a 32 bit machine (although I think in practice 64G is still supported). It's seems questionable if HIGHPTE is even a win for any amount of RAM you would sensibly run a 32 bit kernel on rather than going 64 bit.
