* [PATCH] add asm-generic/mman.hMichael S. Tsirkin2006-02-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Make new MADV_REMOVE, MADV_DONTFORK, MADV_DOFORK consistent across all arches. The idea is to make it possible to use them portably even before distros include them in libc headers. Move common flags to asm-generic/mman.h Signed-off-by: Michael S.

* [PATCH] madvise MADV_DONTFORK/MADV_DOFORKMichael S. Tsirkin2006-02-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, copy-on-write may change the physical address of a page even if the user requested that the page is pinned in memory (either by mlock or by get_user_pages). This happens if the process forks meanwhile, and the parent writes to that page. As a result, the page is orphaned: in case of get_user_pages, the application will never see any data hardware DMA's into this page after the COW. In case of mlock'd memory, the parent is not getting the realtime/security benefits of mlock. In particular, this affects the Infiniband modules which do DMA from and into user pages all the time. This patch adds madvise options to control whether memory range is inherited across fork. Useful e.g. for when hardware is doing DMA from/into these pages. Could also be useful to an application wanting to speed up its forks by cutting large areas out of consideration. Signed-off-by: Michael S.

* [PATCH] atomic_long_t & include/asm-generic/atomic.h V2Christoph Lameter2006-01-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Several counters already have the need to use 64 atomic variables on 64 bit platforms (see mm_counter_t in sched.h). We have to do ugly ifdefs to fall back to 32 bit atomic on 32 bit platforms. The VM statistics patch that I am working on will also make more extensive use of atomic64. This patch introduces a new type atomic_long_t by providing definitions in asm-generic/atomic.h that works similar to the c "long" type. Its 32 bits on 32 bit platforms and 64 bits on 64 bit platforms. Also cleans up the determination of the mm_counter_t in sched.h.

* [PATCH] madvise(MADV_REMOVE): remove pages from tmpfs shm backing storeBadari Pulavarty2006-01-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Here is the patch to implement madvise(MADV_REMOVE) - which frees up a given range of pages & its associated backing store. Current implementation supports only shmfs/tmpfs and other filesystems return -ENOSYS. "Some app allocates large tmpfs files, then when some task quits and some client disconnect, some memory can be released. However the only way to release tmpfs-swap is to MADV_REMOVE". - Andrea Arcangeli Databases want to use this feature to drop a section of their bufferpool (shared memory segments) - without writing back to disk/swap space. This feature is also useful for supporting hot-plug memory on UML. Concerns raised by Andrew Morton: - "We have no plan for holepunching! If we _do_ have such a plan (or might in the future) then what would the API look like? I think sys_holepunch(fd, start, len), so we should start out with that." - Using madvise is very weird, because people will ask "why do I need to mmap my file before I can stick a hole in it?" - None of the other madvise operations call into the filesystem in this manner. A broad question is: is this capability an MM operation or a filesytem operation? truncate, for example, is a filesystem operation which sometimes has MM side-effects. madvise is an mm operation and with this patch, it gains FS side-effects, only they're really, really significant ones." Comments: - Andrea suggested the fs operation too but then it's more efficient to have it as a mm operation with fs side effects, because they don't immediatly know fd and physical offset of the range. It's possible to fixup in userland and to use the fs operation but it's more expensive, the vmas are already in the kernel and we can use them. Short term plan & Future Direction: - We seem to need this interface only for shmfs/tmpfs files in the short term. We have to add hooks into the filesystem for correctness and completeness. This is what this patch does. - In the future, plan is to support both fs and mmap apis also. This also involves (other) filesystem specific functions to be implemented. - Current patch doesn't support VM_NONLINEAR - which can be addressed in the future.

* [PARISC] Always spinlock tlb flush operations to ensure preempt safetyMatthew Wilcox2005-11-17

* [PARISC] Fix our spinlock implementationJames Bottomley2005-11-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We actually have two separate bad bugs 1. The read_lock implementation spins with disabled interrupts. This is completely wrong 2. Our spin_lock_irqsave should check to see if interrupts were enabled before the call and re-enable interrupts around the inner spin loop. The problem is that if we spin with interrupts off, we can't receive IPIs. This has resulted in a bug where SMP machines suddenly spit smp_call_function timeout messages and hang. The scenario I've caught is CPU0 does a flush_tlb_all holding the vmlist_lock for write. CPU1 tries a cat of /proc/meminfo which tries to acquire vmlist_lock for read CPU1 is now spinning with interrupts disabled CPU0 tries to execute a smp_call_function to flush the local tlb caches This is now a deadlock because CPU1 is spinning with interrupts disabled and can never receive the IPI Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <jejb@parisc-linux.org> Signed-off-by: Kyle McMartin <kyle@parisc-linux.org>

* [PATCH] mm: flush_tlb_range outside ptlockHugh Dickins2005-10-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There was one small but very significant change in the previous patch: mprotect's flush_tlb_range fell outside the page_table_lock: as it is in 2.4, but that doesn't prove it safe in 2.6. On some architectures flush_tlb_range comes to the same as flush_tlb_mm, which has always been called from outside page_table_lock in dup_mmap, and is so proved safe. Others required a deeper audit: I could find no reliance on page_table_lock in any; but in ia64 and parisc found some code which looks a bit as if it might want preemption disabled. That won't do any actual harm, so pending a decision from the maintainers, disable preemption there. Remove comments on page_table_lock from flush_tlb_mm, flush_tlb_range and flush_tlb_page entries in cachetlb.txt: they were rather misleading (what generic code does is different from what usually happens), the rules are now changing, and it's not yet clear where we'll end up (will the generic tlb_flush_mmu happen always under lock? never under lock? or sometimes under and sometimes not?).

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fix the alloc_slabmgmt panic Hopefully this should also fix a lot of other intermittent kernel bugs. The problem has been around since 2.6.9-rc2-pa6 when we allowed floating point registers to be used in kernel code. The essence of the problem is that gcc prefers to use floating point for integer divides and multiples. Further, it can rely on the values in the no clobber fp regs being correct across a function call. Unfortunately, our task switch function only saves the integer no clobber registers, not the fp ones, so if gcc makes a function call to any function in the kernel which could sleep, the values it is relying on in any no clobber floating point register may be lost. In the case of alloc_slabmgmt, the value of the page offset is being stored in %fr12 across a call to kmem_getpages(), which sleeps if no pages are available. Thus, the offset can be trashed and the slab code can end up with a completely bogus address leading to corruption. Kudos to Randolph who came up with the program to trip this problem at will and thus allowed it to be tracked and fixed.

Gives about 25% perf improvement with a rsync test with ext3. Signed-off-by: Randolph Chung <tausq@parisc-linux.org> fix ext3 performance - ext2_find_next_zero() was culprit. Kudos to jejb for pointing out the the possibility that ext2_test_bit and ext2_find_next_zero() may in fact not be enumerating bits in the bitmap because of endianess. Took sparc64 implementation and adapted it to our tree. I suspect the real problem is ffz() wants an unsigned long and was getting garbage in the top half of the unsigned int. Not confirmed but that's what I suspect.

I think header files that might go to user space should use something userspace will know about (__LP64__).

* | [PARISC] Take into account nullified insn and lock functions for profilingRandolph Chung2005-10-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | export profile_pc() symbol - oprofile needs it when built as a module. Signed-off-by: Grant Grundler <grundler@parisc-linux.org> Take into account nullified insn and lock functions for profiling This is needed at the end of functions; it is typical that the return branch nullifies the next insn, which is in the next function. This causes profiling data to show up against the "wrong" function. We also count lock times against the locker. This is consistent with other architectures.
