* cpuset: mm: reduce large amounts of memory barrier related damage v3Mel Gorman2012-03-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit c0ff7453bb5c ("cpuset,mm: fix no node to alloc memory when changing cpuset's mems") wins a super prize for the largest number of memory barriers entered into fast paths for one commit. [get|put]_mems_allowed is incredibly heavy with pairs of full memory barriers inserted into a number of hot paths. This was detected while investigating at large page allocator slowdown introduced some time after 2.6.32. The largest portion of this overhead was shown by oprofile to be at an mfence introduced by this commit into the page allocator hot path. For extra style points, the commit introduced the use of yield() in an implementation of what looks like a spinning mutex. This patch replaces the full memory barriers on both read and write sides with a sequence counter with just read barriers on the fast path side. This is much cheaper on some architectures, including x86. The main bulk of the patch is the retry logic if the nodemask changes in a manner that can cause a false failure. While updating the nodemask, a check is made to see if a false failure is a risk. If it is, the sequence number gets bumped and parallel allocators will briefly stall while the nodemask update takes place. In a page fault test microbenchmark, oprofile samples from __alloc_pages_nodemask went from 4.53% of all samples to 1.15%.

The actual number of page faults is noticeably improved. For benchmarks like kernel builds, the overall benefit is marginal but the system CPU time is slightly reduced. To test the actual bug the commit fixed I opened two terminals. The first ran within a cpuset and continually ran a small program that faulted 100M of anonymous data. In a second window, the nodemask of the cpuset was continually randomised in a loop. Without the commit, the program would fail every so often (usually within 10 seconds) and obviously with the commit everything worked fine. With this patch applied, it also worked fine so the fix should be functionally equivalent.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In UP systems, the idle task is initialized using the init_task structure from which the command name is taken (currently "swapper"). In SMP systems, one idle task per CPU is forked by the worker thread from which the task structure is copied. The command name is, therefore, "kworker/0:0" or "kworker/0:1", if not updated. Since such update was lacking, all idle tasks in SMP systems were incorrectly named. This longtime bug was not discovered immediately, because there is no /proc/0 entry - the bug only becomes apparent when tracing is enabled. This patch sets the command name of the idle tasks in SMP systems to the name that is used in the INIT_TASK structure suffixed by a slash and the number of the CPU.

* rcu: Add a TINY_PREEMPT_RCUPaul E. McKenney2010-08-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Implement a small-memory-footprint uniprocessor-only implementation of preemptible RCU. This implementation uses but a single blocked-tasks list rather than the combinatorial number used per leaf rcu_node by TREE_PREEMPT_RCU, which reduces memory consumption and greatly simplifies processing. This version also takes advantage of uniprocessor execution to accelerate grace periods in the case where there are no readers. The general design is otherwise broadly similar to that of TREE_PREEMPT_RCU. This implementation is a step towards having RCU implementation driven off of the SMP and PREEMPT kernel configuration variables, which can happen once this implementation has accumulated sufficient experience. Removed ACCESS_ONCE() from __rcu_read_unlock() and added barrier() as suggested by Steve Rostedt in order to avoid the compiler-reordering issue noted by Mathieu Desnoyers (http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/8/16/183). As can be seen below, CONFIG_TINY_PREEMPT_RCU represents almost 5Kbyte savings compared to CONFIG_TREE_PREEMPT_RCU. Of course, for non-real-time workloads, CONFIG_TINY_RCU is even better.

This is needed so task_pid(), task_pgrp() and task_session() interfaces work on the swapper process also. OK, but: - it doesn't make sense to add init_task.pids[].node into init_struct_pid.tasks[], and in fact this just wrong. idle threads are special, they shouldn't be visible on any global list. In particular do_each_pid_task(init_struct_pid) shouldn't see swapper. This is the actual reason why kill(0, SIGKILL) from /sbin/init (which starts with 0,0 special pids) crashes the kernel. The signal sent to pgid/sid == 0 must never see idle threads, even if the previous patch fixed the crash itself. - we have other idle threads running on the non-boot CPUs, see the next patch. Change INIT_STRUCT_PID/INIT_PID_LINK to create the empty/unhashed hlist_head/hlist_node. Like any other idle thread swapper can never exit, so detach_pid()->__hlist_del() is not possible, but we could change INIT_PID_LINK() to set pprev = &next if needed. All we need is the valid swapper->pids[].pid == &init_struct_pid.

With the recent changes this counter has a single user, get_nr_threads() And, none of its callers need the really accurate number of threads, not to mention each caller obviously races with fork/exit. It is only used to report this value to the user-space, except first_tid() uses it to avoid the unnecessary while_each_thread() loop in the unlikely case. It is a bit sad we need a word in struct signal_struct for this, perhaps we can change get_nr_threads() to approximate the number of threads using signal->live and kill ->nr_threads later.

* remove CONFIG_SECURITY_FILE_CAPABILITIES compile optionSerge E. Hallyn2009-11-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As far as I know, all distros currently ship kernels with default CONFIG_SECURITY_FILE_CAPABILITIES=y. Since having the option on leaves a 'no_file_caps' option to boot without file capabilities, the main reason to keep the option is that turning it off saves you (on my s390x partition) 5k. In particular, vmlinux sizes came to: without patch fscaps=n: 53598392 without patch fscaps=y: 53603406 with this patch applied: 53603342 with the security-next tree. Against this we must weigh the fact that there is no simple way for userspace to figure out whether file capabilities are supported, while things like per-process securebits, capability bounding sets, and adding bits to pI if CAP_SETPCAP is in pE are not supported with SECURITY_FILE_CAPABILITIES=n, leaving a bit of a problem for applications wanting to know whether they can use them and/or why something failed. It also adds another subtly different set of semantics which we must maintain at the risk of severe security regressions. So this patch removes the SECURITY_FILE_CAPABILITIES compile option. It drops the kernel size by about 50k over the stock SECURITY_FILE_CAPABILITIES=y kernel, by removing the cap_limit_ptraced_target() function.

* perf: Do the big rename: Performance Counters -> Performance EventsIngo Molnar2009-09-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Bye-bye Performance Counters, welcome Performance Events! In the past few months the perfcounters subsystem has grown out its initial role of counting hardware events, and has become (and is becoming) a much broader generic event enumeration, reporting, logging, monitoring, analysis facility. Naming its core object 'perf_counter' and naming the subsystem 'perfcounters' has become more and more of a misnomer. With pending code like hw-breakpoints support the 'counter' name is less and less appropriate. All in one, we've decided to rename the subsystem to 'performance events' and to propagate this rename through all fields, variables and API names. (in an ABI compatible fashion) The word 'event' is also a bit shorter than 'counter' - which makes it slightly more convenient to write/handle as well. Thanks goes to Stephane Eranian who first observed this misnomer and suggested a rename. User-space tooling and ABI compatibility is not affected - this patch should be function-invariant. (Also, defconfigs were not touched to keep the size down.) This patch has been generated via the following script: FILES=$(find * -type f | grep -vE 'oprofile|[^K]config') sed -i \ -e 's/PERF_EVENT_/PERF_RECORD_/g' \ -e 's/PERF_COUNTER/PERF_EVENT/g' \ -e 's/perf_counter/perf_event/g' \ -e 's/nb_counters/nb_events/g' \ -e 's/swcounter/swevent/g' \ -e 's/tpcounter_event/tp_event/g' \ $FILES for N in $(find . -name perf_counter.[ch]); do M=$(echo $N | sed 's/perf_counter/perf_event/g') mv $N $M done FILES=$(find . -name perf_event.*) sed -i \ -e 's/COUNTER_MASK/REG_MASK/g' \ -e 's/COUNTER/EVENT/g' \ -e 's/\<event\>/event_id/g' \ -e 's/counter/event/g' \ -e 's/Counter/Event/g' \ $FILES ... to keep it as correct as possible. This script can also be used by anyone who has pending perfcounters patches - it converts a Linux kernel tree over to the new naming. We tried to time this change to the point in time where the amount of pending patches is the smallest: the end of the merge window. Namespace clashes were fixed up in a preparatory patch - and some stylistic fallout will be fixed up in a subsequent patch. ( NOTE: 'counters' are still the proper terminology when we deal with hardware registers - and these sed scripts are a bit over-eager in renaming them. I've undone some of that, but in case there's something left where 'counter' would be better than 'event' we can undo that on an individual basis instead of touching an otherwise nicely automated patch. ) Suggested-by: Stephane Eranian <eranian@google.com> Acked-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Acked-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Reviewed-by: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@linux.intel.com> Cc: Mike Galbraith <efault@gmx.de> Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Cc: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> Cc: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com> Cc: Kyle McMartin <kyle@mcmartin.ca> Cc: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com> Cc: "David S.

* rcu: Create rcutree plugins to handle hotplug CPU for multi-level treesPaul E. McKenney2009-08-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When offlining CPUs from a multi-level tree, there is the possibility of offlining the last CPU from a given node when there are preempted RCU read-side critical sections that started life on one of the CPUs on that node. In this case, the corresponding tasks will be enqueued via the task_struct's rcu_node_entry list_head onto one of the rcu_node's blocked_tasks[] lists. These tasks need to be moved somewhere else so that they will prevent the current grace period from ending. That somewhere is the root rcu_node. Signed-off-by: Paul E.

* rcu: Merge preemptable-RCU functionality into hierarchical RCUPaul E. McKenney2009-08-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Create a kernel/rcutree_plugin.h file that contains definitions for preemptable RCU (or, under the #else branch of the #ifdef, empty definitions for the classic non-preemptable semantics). These definitions fit into plugins defined in kernel/rcutree.c for this purpose. This variant of preemptable RCU uses a new algorithm whose read-side expense is roughly that of classic hierarchical RCU under CONFIG_PREEMPT. This new algorithm's update-side expense is similar to that of classic hierarchical RCU, and, in absence of read-side preemption or blocking, is exactly that of classic hierarchical RCU. Perhaps more important, this new algorithm has a much simpler implementation, saving well over 1,000 lines of code compared to mainline's implementation of preemptable RCU, which will hopefully be retired in favor of this new algorithm. The simplifications are obtained by maintaining per-task nesting state for running tasks, and using a simple lock-protected algorithm to handle accounting when tasks block within RCU read-side critical sections, making use of lessons learned while creating numerous user-level RCU implementations over the past 18 months.

| * | perf_counter: Dynamically allocate tasks' perf_counter_context structPaul Mackerras2009-05-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This replaces the struct perf_counter_context in the task_struct with a pointer to a dynamically allocated perf_counter_context struct. The main reason for doing is this is to allow us to transfer a perf_counter_context from one task to another when we do lazy PMU switching in a later patch. This has a few side-benefits: the task_struct becomes a little smaller, we save some memory because only tasks that have perf_counters attached get a perf_counter_context allocated for them, and we can remove the inclusion of <linux/perf_counter.h> in sched.h, meaning that we don't end up recompiling nearly everything whenever perf_counter.h changes. The perf_counter_context structures are reference-counted and freed when the last reference is dropped. A context can have references from its task and the counters on its task. Counters can outlive the task so it is possible that a context will be freed well after its task has exited. Contexts are allocated on fork if the parent had a context, or otherwise the first time that a per-task counter is created on a task. In the latter case, we set the context pointer in the task struct locklessly using an atomic compare-and-exchange operation in case we raced with some other task in creating a context for the subject task. This also removes the task pointer from the perf_counter struct. The task pointer was not used anywhere and would make it harder to move a context from one task to another. Anything that needed to know which task a counter was attached to was already using counter->ctx->task. The __perf_counter_init_context function moves up in perf_counter.c so that it can be called from find_get_context, and now initializes the refcount, but is otherwise unchanged. We were potentially calling list_del_counter twice: once from __perf_counter_exit_task when the task exits and once from __perf_counter_remove_from_context when the counter's fd gets closed. This adds a check in list_del_counter so it doesn't do anything if the counter has already been removed from the lists. Since perf_counter_task_sched_in doesn't do anything if the task doesn't have a context, and leaves cpuctx->task_ctx = NULL, this adds code to __perf_install_in_context to set cpuctx->task_ctx if necessary, i.e. in the case where the current task adds the first counter to itself and thus creates a context for itself. This also adds similar code to __perf_counter_enable to handle a similar situation which can arise when the counters have been disabled using prctl; that also leaves cpuctx->task_ctx = NULL.
