| | * x86-64: support native xadd rwsem implementationLinus Torvalds2010-04-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit bafaecd11df15ad5b1e598adc7736afcd38ee13d upstream. This one is much faster than the spinlock based fallback rwsem code, with certain artifical benchmarks having shown 300%+ improvement on threaded page faults etc. Again, note the 32767-thread limit here. 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).

| | * x86-64, rwsem: 64-bit xadd rwsem implementationH. Peter Anvin2010-04-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit 1838ef1d782f7527e6defe87e180598622d2d071 upstream. For x86-64, 32767 threads really is not enough. 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.

| | * x86: clean up rwsem type systemLinus Torvalds2010-04-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit 5d0b7235d83eefdafda300656e97d368afcafc9a upstream. The fast version of the rwsems (the code that uses xadd) has traditionally only worked on x86-32, and as a result it mixes different kinds of types wildly - they just all happen to be 32-bit. 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.

| | * x86-32: clean up rwsem inline asm statementsLinus Torvalds2010-04-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit 59c33fa7791e9948ba467c2b83e307a0d087ab49 upstream. This makes gcc use the right register names and instruction operand sizes automatically for the rwsem inline asm statements. So instead of using "(%%eax)" to specify the memory address that is the semaphore, we use "(%1)" or similar. And instead of forcing the operation to always be 32-bit, we use "%z0", taking the size from the actual semaphore data structure itself. This doesn't actually matter on x86-32, but if we want to use the same inline asm for x86-64, we'll need to have the compiler generate the proper 64-bit names for the registers (%rax instead of %eax), and if we want to use a 64-bit counter too (in order to avoid the 15-bit limit on the write counter that limits concurrent users to 32767 threads), we'll need to be able to generate instructions with "q" accesses rather than "l". Since this header currently isn't enabled on x86-64, none of that matters, but we do want to use the xadd version of the semaphores rather than have to take spinlocks to do a rwsem. The mm->mmap_sem can be heavily contended when you have lots of threads all taking page faults, and the fallback rwsem code that uses a spinlock performs abysmally badly in that case.

Hit another kdump problem as reported by Neil Horman. When initializaing the IOMMU, we attach devices to their domains before the IOMMU is fully (re)initialized. Attaching a device will issue some important invalidations. In the context of the newly kexec'd kdump kernel, the IOMMU may have stale cached data from the original kernel. Because we do the attach too early, the invalidation commands are placed in the new command buffer before the IOMMU is updated w/ that buffer. This leaves the stale entries in the kdump context and can renders device unusable. Simply enable the IOMMU before we do the attach.

Jan Grossmann reported kernel boot panic while booting SMP kernel on his system with a single core cpu. SMP kernels call enable_IR_x2apic() from native_smp_prepare_cpus() and on platforms where the kernel doesn't find SMP configuration we ended up again calling enable_IR_x2apic() from the APIC_init_uniprocessor() call in the smp_sanity_check(). Thus leading to kernel panic. Don't call enable_IR_x2apic() and default_setup_apic_routing() from APIC_init_uniprocessor() in CONFIG_SMP case. NOTE: this kind of non-idempotent and assymetric initialization sequence is rather fragile and unclean, we'll clean that up in v2.6.35. This is the minimal fix for v2.6.34.

This is a chipset erratum. Thomas: You mentioned we can retain this check only for known-buggy and hpet debug kind of options. But here is the simple workaround patch for this particular erratum. Some chipsets have a erratum due to which read immediately following a write of HPET comparator returns old comparator value instead of most recently written value.

We found a system where the MP table MPC and MPF structures overlap. That doesn't really matter because the mptable is not used anyways with ACPI, but it leads to a panic in the early allocator due to the overlapping reservations in 2.6.33. Earlier kernels handled this without problems. Simply change these reservations to reserve_early_overlap_ok to avoid the panic.

On UV systems, the TSC is not synchronized across blades. The sched_clock_cpu() function is returning values that can go backwards (I've seen as much as 8 seconds) when switching between cpus. As each cpu comes up, early_init_intel() will currently set the sched_clock_stable flag true. When mark_tsc_unstable() runs, it clears the flag, but this only occurs once (the first time a cpu comes up whose TSC is not synchronized with cpu 0). After this, early_init_intel() will set the flag again as the next cpu comes up. Only set sched_clock_stable if tsc has not been marked unstable.

So if ptrace exceeds this max rate, it will omit events, which breaks the ptrace determinism that is supposed to report every triggered breakpoints.

Callers of a stacktrace might pass bad frame pointers. Those are usually checked for safety in stack walking helpers before any dereferencing, but this is not the case when we need to go through one more frame pointer that backlinks the irq stack to the previous one, as we don't have any reliable address boudaries to compare this frame pointer against. This raises crashes when we record callchains for ftrace events with perf because we don't use the right helpers to capture registers there. We get wrong frame pointers as we call task_pt_regs() even on kernel threads, which is a wrong thing as it gives us the initial state of any kernel threads freshly created. This is even not what we want for user tasks. What we want is a hot snapshot of registers when the ftrace event triggers, not the state before a task entered the kernel. This requires more thoughts to do it correctly though. So first put a guardian to ensure the given frame pointer can be dereferenced to avoid crashes. We'll think about how to fix the callers in a subsequent patch. Signed-off-by: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Cc: H.

We currently enforce the !RW mapping for the kernel mapping that maps holes between different text, rodata and data sections. However, kernel identity mappings will have different RWX permissions to the pages mapping to text and to the pages padding (which are freed) the text, rodata sections. Hence kernel identity mappings will be broken to smaller pages. For 64-bit, kernel text and kernel identity mappings are different, so we can enable protection checks that come with CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA, as well as retain 2MB large page mappings for kernel text. Konrad reported a boot failure with the Linux Xen paravirt guest because of this. In this paravirt guest case, the kernel text mapping and the kernel identity mapping share the same page-table pages. Thus forcing the !RW mapping for some of the kernel mappings also cause the kernel identity mappings to be read-only resulting in the boot failure. Linux Xen paravirt guest also uses 4k mappings and don't use 2M mapping. Fix this issue and retain large page performance advantage for native kernels by not working hard and not enforcing !RW for the kernel text mapping, if the current mapping is already using small page mapping.

Commit 2552fc2 changed the way the decompressor decides if it is safe to decompress the kernel directly to its final location. Unfortunately, it took the top of the compressed data as being the stack pointer, which it is for ROM=n cases. However, for ROM=y, the stack pointer is not relevant, and results in the wrong answer. Fix this by explicitly storing the end of the biggybacked data in the decompressor, and use that to calculate the compressed image size.

The problem is that local data generates GOTOFF relocations, which means we can't relocate the data relative to the text segment. Global data, on the other hand, goes through the GOT, and can be relocated anywhere. Unfortunately, with the new decompressors, this presents a problem since they declare static data within functions, and this leads to stack overflow. Fix this by separating out the decompressor code into a separate file, and removing 'static' from BSS data in misc.c. Also, discard the .data section - this means that should we end up with read/write initialized data, the decompressor will fail to link and the problem will be obvious.

Distros generally (I looked at Debian, RHEL5 and SLES11) seem to enable CONFIG_HIGHPTE for any x86 configuration which has highmem enabled. 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.
