|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Now that the return from alloc_percpu is compatible with the address of per-cpu vars, it makes sense to hand around the address of per-cpu variables.

* this_cpu: Introduce this_cpu_ptr() and generic this_cpu_* operationsChristoph Lameter2009-10-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch introduces two things: First this_cpu_ptr and then per cpu atomic operations. this_cpu_ptr ------------ A common operation when dealing with cpu data is to get the instance of the cpu data associated with the currently executing processor. This can be optimized by this_cpu_ptr(xx) = per_cpu_ptr(xx, smp_processor_id). The problem with per_cpu_ptr(x, smp_processor_id) is that it requires an array lookup to find the offset for the cpu. Processors typically have the offset for the current cpu area in some kind of (arch dependent) efficiently accessible register or memory location. We can use that instead of doing the array lookup to speed up the determination of the address of the percpu variable. This is particularly significant because these lookups occur in performance critical paths of the core kernel. this_cpu_ptr() can avoid memory accesses and this_cpu_ptr comes in two flavors. The preemption context matters since we are referring the the currently executing processor. In many cases we must insure that the processor does not change while a code segment is executed. __this_cpu_ptr -> Do not check for preemption context this_cpu_ptr -> Check preemption context The parameter to these operations is a per cpu pointer. This can be the address of a statically defined per cpu variable (&per_cpu_var(xxx)) or the address of a per cpu variable allocated with the per cpu allocator. per cpu atomic operations: this_cpu_*(var, val) ----------------------------------------------- this_cpu_* operations (like this_cpu_add(struct->y, value) operate on abitrary scalars that are members of structures allocated with the new per cpu allocator. They can also operate on static per_cpu variables if they are passed to per_cpu_var() (See patch to use this_cpu_* operations for vm statistics). These operations are guaranteed to be atomic vs preemption when modifying the scalar. The calculation of the per cpu offset is also guaranteed to be atomic at the same time. This means that a this_cpu_* operation can be safely used to modify a per cpu variable in a context where interrupts are enabled and preemption is allowed. Many architectures can perform such a per cpu atomic operation with a single instruction. Note that the atomicity here is different from regular atomic operations. Atomicity is only guaranteed for data accessed from the currently executing processor. Modifications from other processors are still possible. There must be other guarantees that the per cpu data is not modified from another processor when using these instruction. The per cpu atomicity is created by the fact that the processor either executes and instruction or not. Embedded in the instruction is the relocation of the per cpu address to the are reserved for the current processor and the RMW action. Therefore interrupts or preemption cannot occur in the mids of this processing. Generic fallback functions are used if an arch does not define optimized this_cpu operations. The functions come also come in the two flavors used for this_cpu_ptr(). The firstparameter is a scalar that is a member of a structure allocated through allocpercpu or a per cpu variable (use per_cpu_var(xxx)). The operations are similar to what percpu_add() and friends do. this_cpu_read(scalar) this_cpu_write(scalar, value) this_cpu_add(scale, value) this_cpu_sub(scalar, value) this_cpu_inc(scalar) this_cpu_dec(scalar) this_cpu_and(scalar, value) this_cpu_or(scalar, value) this_cpu_xor(scalar, value) Arch code can override the generic functions and provide optimized atomic per cpu operations. These atomic operations must provide both the relocation (x86 does it through a segment override) and the operation on the data in a single instruction. Otherwise preempt needs to be disabled and there is no gain from providing arch implementations. A third variant is provided prefixed by irqsafe_. These variants are safe against hardware interrupts on the *same* processor (all per cpu atomic primitives are *always* *only* providing safety for code running on the *same* processor!). The increment needs to be implemented by the hardware in such a way that it is a single RMW instruction that is either processed before or after an interrupt. cc: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com> cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> cc: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au> cc: Eric Dumazet <dada1@cosmosbay.com> Signed-off-by: Christoph Lameter <cl@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>

* alpha: fix percpu build breakageTejun Heo2009-06-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | alpha percpu access requires custom SHIFT_PERCPU_PTR() definition for modules to work around addressing range limitation. This is done via generating inline assembly using C preprocessing which forces the assembler to generate external reference. This happens behind the compiler's back and makes the compiler think that static percpu variables in modules are unused. This used to be worked around by using __unused attribute for percpu variables which prevent the compiler from omitting the variable; however, recent declare/definition attribute unification change broke this as __used can't be used for declaration. Also, in the process, PER_CPU_ATTRIBUTES definition in alpha percpu.h got broken. This patch adds PER_CPU_DEF_ATTRIBUTES which is only used for definitions and make alpha use it to add __used for percpu variables in modules. This also fixes the PER_CPU_ATTRIBUTES double definition bug.

* FRV: Fix the section attribute on UP DECLARE_PER_CPU()David Howells2009-04-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In non-SMP mode, the variable section attribute specified by DECLARE_PER_CPU() does not agree with that specified by DEFINE_PER_CPU(). This means that architectures that have a small data section references relative to a base register may throw up linkage errors due to too great a displacement between where the base register points and the per-CPU variable. On FRV, the .h declaration says that the variable is in the .sdata section, but the .c definition says it's actually in the .data section. The linker throws up the following errors: kernel/built-in.o: In function `release_task': kernel/exit.c:78: relocation truncated to fit: R_FRV_GPREL12 against symbol `per_cpu__process_counts' defined in .data section in kernel/built-in.o kernel/exit.c:78: relocation truncated to fit: R_FRV_GPREL12 against symbol `per_cpu__process_counts' defined in .data section in kernel/built-in.o To fix this, DECLARE_PER_CPU() should simply apply the same section attribute as does DEFINE_PER_CPU(). However, this is made slightly more complex by virtue of the fact that there are several variants on DEFINE, so these need to be matched by variants on DECLARE.

* percpu: fix DEBUG_PREEMPT per_cpu checkingHugh Dickins2008-02-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 2.6.25-rc1 percpu changes broke CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT's per_cpu checking on several architectures. On s390, sparc64 and x86 it's been weakened to not checking at all; whereas on powerpc64 it's become too strict, issuing warnings from __raw_get_cpu_var in io_schedule and init_timer for example. Fix this by weakening powerpc's __my_cpu_offset to use the non-checking local_paca instead of get_paca (which itself contains such a check); and strengthening the generic my_cpu_offset to go the old slow way via smp_processor_id when CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT (debug_smp_processor_id is where all the knowledge of what's correct when lives).

* define new percpu interface for shared dataFenghua Yu2007-07-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | per cpu data section contains two types of data. One set which is exclusively accessed by the local cpu and the other set which is per cpu, but also shared by remote cpus. In the current kernel, these two sets are not clearely separated out. This can potentially cause the same data cacheline shared between the two sets of data, which will result in unnecessary bouncing of the cacheline between cpus. One way to fix the problem is to cacheline align the remotely accessed per cpu data, both at the beginning and at the end. Because of the padding at both ends, this will likely cause some memory wastage and also the interface to achieve this is not clean. This patch: Moves the remotely accessed per cpu data (which is currently marked as ____cacheline_aligned_in_smp) into a different section, where all the data elements are cacheline aligned. And as such, this differentiates the local only data and remotely accessed data cleanly.

* [PATCH] Define __raw_get_cpu_var and use itPaul Mackerras2006-06-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There are several instances of per_cpu(foo, raw_smp_processor_id()), which is semantically equivalent to __get_cpu_var(foo) but without the warning that smp_processor_id() can give if CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT is enabled. For those architectures with optimized per-cpu implementations, namely ia64, powerpc, s390, sparc64 and x86_64, per_cpu() turns into more and slower code than __get_cpu_var(), so it would be preferable to use __get_cpu_var on those platforms. This defines a __raw_get_cpu_var(x) macro which turns into per_cpu(x, raw_smp_processor_id()) on architectures that use the generic per-cpu implementation, and turns into __get_cpu_var(x) on the architectures that have an optimized per-cpu implementation.
