* proportions: add @gfp to init functionsTejun Heo2014-09-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | Percpu allocator now supports allocation mask. Add @gfp to [flex_]proportions init functions so that !GFP_KERNEL allocation masks can be used with them too. This patch doesn't make any functional difference. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Reviewed-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org>
* lib: proportion: lower PROP_MAX_SHIFT to 32 on 64-bit kernelWu Fengguang2012-02-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | PROP_MAX_SHIFT should be set to <=32 on 64-bit box. This fixes two bugs in the below lines of bdi_dirty_limit(): bdi_dirty *= numerator; do_div(bdi_dirty, denominator); 1) divide error: do_div() only uses the lower 32 bit of the denominator, which may trimmed to be 0 when PROP_MAX_SHIFT > 32. 2) overflow: (bdi_dirty * numerator) could easily overflow if numerator used up to 48 bits, leaving only 16 bits to bdi_dirty Cc: <stable@kernel.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Reported-by: Ilya Tumaykin <librarian_rus@yahoo.com> Tested-by: Ilya Tumaykin <librarian_rus@yahoo.com> Signed-off-by: Wu Fengguang <fengguang.wu@intel.com>
* locking, lib/proportions: Annotate prop_local_percpu::lock as rawThomas Gleixner2011-09-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | The prop_local_percpu::lock can be taken in atomic context and therefore cannot be preempted on -rt - annotate it. In mainline this change documents the low level nature of the lock - otherwise there's no functional difference. Lockdep and Sparse checking will work as usual.

* mm: bdi: allow setting a maximum for the bdi dirty limitPeter Zijlstra2008-04-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add "max_ratio" to /sys/class/bdi. This indicates the maximum percentage of the global dirty threshold allocated to this bdi. [mszeredi@suse.cz] - fix parsing in max_ratio_store(). - export bdi_set_max_ratio() to modules - limit bdi_dirty with bdi->max_ratio - document new sysfs attribute Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
* lib: floating proportionsPeter Zijlstra2007-10-17
Given a set of objects, floating proportions aims to efficiently give the proportional 'activity' of a single item as compared to the whole set. Where 'activity' is a measure of a temporal property of the items. It is efficient in that it need not inspect any other items of the set in order to provide the answer. It is not even needed to know how many other items there are. It has one parameter, and that is the period of 'time' over which the 'activity' is measured.
