| * nfsd41: Backchannel: Setup sequence informationRicardo Labiaga2009-09-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Follows the model used by the NFS client. Setup the RPC prepare and done function pointers so that we can populate the sequence information if minorversion == 1. rpc_run_task() is then invoked directly just like existing NFS client operations do. nfsd4_cb_prepare() determines if the sequence information needs to be setup. If the slot is in use, it adds itself to the wait queue. nfsd4_cb_done() wakes anyone sleeping on the callback channel wait queue after our RPC reply has been received. It also sets the task message result pointer to NULL to clearly indicate we're done using it.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Follow the model we use in the client. Make the sequence arguments part of the regular RPC arguments. None of the callbacks that are soon to be implemented expect results that need to be passed back to the caller, so we don't define a separate RPC results structure. For session validation, the cb_sequence decoding will use a pointer to the sequence arguments that are part of the RPC argument.

| * nfsd41: replace page based DRC with buffer based DRCAndy Adamson2009-09-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Use NFSD_SLOT_CACHE_SIZE size buffers for sessions DRC instead of holding nfsd pages in cache. Connectathon testing has shown that 1024 bytes for encoded compound operation responses past the sequence operation is sufficient, 512 bytes is a little too small. Set NFSD_SLOT_CACHE_SIZE to 1024. Allocate memory for the session DRC in the CREATE_SESSION operation to guarantee that the memory resource is available for caching responses. Allocate each slot individually in preparation for slot table size negotiation. Remove struct nfsd4_cache_entry and helper functions for the old page-based DRC. The iov_len calculation in nfs4svc_encode_compoundres is now always correct. Replay is now done in nfsd4_sequence under the state lock, so the session ref count is only bumped on non-replay. Clean up the nfs4svc_encode_compoundres session logic. The nfsd4_compound_state statp pointer is also not used. Remove nfsd4_set_statp(). Move useful nfsd4_cache_entry fields into nfsd4_slot.

| * nfsd41: bound forechannel drc size by memory usageAndy Adamson2009-09-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | By using the requested ca_maxresponsesize_cached * ca_maxresponses to bound a forechannel drc request size, clients can tailor a session to usage. For example, an I/O session (READ/WRITE only) can have a much smaller ca_maxresponsesize_cached (for only WRITE compound responses) and a lot larger ca_maxresponses to service a large in-flight data window.

| * nfsd41: expand solo sequence checkAndy Adamson2009-08-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Compounds consisting of only a sequence operation don't need any additional caching beyond the sequence information we store in the slot entry. Fix nfsd4_is_solo_sequence to identify this case correctly. The additional check for a failed sequence in nfsd4_store_cache_entry() is redundant, since the nfsd4_is_solo_sequence call lower down catches this case. The final ce_cachethis set in nfsd4_sequence is also redundant. Signed-off-by: Andy Adamson <andros@netapp.com> Signed-off-by: J. Bruce Fields <bfields@citi.umich.edu>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | on SETCLIENTID call When a SETCLIENTID call comes in, one of the args given is the svc_rqst. This struct contains an rq_addr field which holds the address that sent the call. If this is an IPv6 address, then we can use the sin6_scope_id field in this address to populate the sin6_scope_id field in the callback address. AFAICT, the rq_addr.sin6_scope_id is non-zero if and only if the client mounted the server's link-local address.

| * | nfsd41: Use separate DRC for setclientidAndy Adamson2009-07-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Instead of trying to share the generic 4.1 reply cache code for the CREATE_SESSION reply cache, it's simpler to handle CREATE_SESSION separately. The nfs41 single slot clientid DRC holds the results of create session processing. CREATE_SESSION can be preceeded by a SEQUENCE operation (an embedded CREATE_SESSION) and the create session single slot cache must be maintained. nfsd4_replay_cache_entry() and nfsd4_store_cache_entry() do not implement the replay of an embedded CREATE_SESSION. The clientid DRC slot does not need the inuse, cachethis or other fields that the multiple slot session cache uses. Replace the clientid DRC cache struct nfs4_slot cache with a new nfsd4_clid_slot cache. Save the xdr struct nfsd4_create_session into the cache at the end of processing, and on a replay, replace the struct for the replay request with the cached version all while under the state lock. nfsd4_proc_compound will handle both the solo and embedded CREATE_SESSION case via the normal use of encode_operation. Errors that do not change the create session cache: A create session NFS4ERR_STALE_CLIENTID error means that a client record (and associated create session slot) could not be found and therefore can't be changed. NFSERR_SEQ_MISORDERED errors do not change the slot cache. All other errors get cached. Remove the clientid DRC specific check in nfs4svc_encode_compoundres to put the session only if cstate.session is set which will now always be true.

This removes FLEX_ARRAY_INIT() as a struct flex_array initializer since no initializer may perform the required checking. Instead, the array is now defined with a new interface: DEFINE_FLEX_ARRAY(name, element_size, total_nr_elements) This may be prefixed with `static' for file scope. This interface includes compile-time checking of the parameters to ensure they are valid. Since the validity of both element_size and total_nr_elements depend on FLEX_ARRAY_BASE_SIZE and FLEX_ARRAY_PART_SIZE, the kernel build will fail if either of these predefined values changes such that the array parameters are no longer valid. Since BUILD_BUG_ON() requires compile time constants, several of the static inline functions that were once local to lib/flex_array.c had to be moved to include/linux/flex_array.h.

It's value is similar to POISON_FREE used in the various slab allocators, but is different to distinguish between flex array's poisoned kmem and slab allocator poisoned kmem. This will allow us to identify flex_array_part's that only contain free elements (and free them with an addition to the flex_array API). This could also be extended in the future to identify `get' uses on elements that have not been `put'. If __GFP_ZERO is passed for a part's gfp mask, the poisoning is avoided. These elements are considered to be in-use since they have been initialized.

The reason for a reworked governor is that there have been serious performance issues reported with the existing code on Nehalem server systems. To show this I'm sure Andrew wants to see benchmark results: (benchmark is "fio", "no cstates" is using "idle=poll") no cstates current linux new algorithm 1 disk 107 Mb/s 85 Mb/s 105 Mb/s 2 disks 215 Mb/s 123 Mb/s 209 Mb/s 12 disks 590 Mb/s 320 Mb/s 585 Mb/s In various power benchmark measurements, no degredation was found by our measurement&diagnostics team. Obviously a small percentage more power was used in the "fio" benchmark, due to the much higher performance. While it would be a novel idea to describe the new algorithm in this commit message, I cheaped out and described it in comments in the code instead.

This mapping will borrow functionality from the huge page shm code to create a file on the kernel internal mount and use it to approximate an anonymous mapping. The MAP_HUGETLB flag is a modifier to MAP_ANONYMOUS and will not work without both flags being preset. A new flag is necessary because there is no other way to hook into huge pages without creating a file on a hugetlbfs mount which wouldn't be MAP_ANONYMOUS. To userspace, this mapping will behave just like an anonymous mapping because the file is not accessible outside of the kernel. This patchset is meant to simplify the programming model. Presently there is a large chunk of boiler platecode, contained in libhugetlbfs, required to create private, hugepage backed mappings. This patch set would allow use of hugepages without linking to libhugetlbfs or having hugetblfs mounted. Unification of the VM code would provide these same benefits, but it has been resisted each time that it has been suggested for several reasons: it would break PAGE_SIZE assumptions across the kernel, it makes page-table abstractions really expensive, and it does not provide any benefit on architectures that do not support huge pages, incurring fast path penalties without providing any benefit on these architectures. This patch: There are two means of creating mappings backed by huge pages: 1. mmap() a file created on hugetlbfs 2. Use shm which creates a file on an internal mount which essentially maps it MAP_SHARED The internal mount is only used for shared mappings but there is very little that stops it being used for private mappings. This patch extends hugetlbfs_file_setup() to deal with the creation of files that will be mapped MAP_PRIVATE on the internal hugetlbfs mount. This extended API is used in a subsequent patch to implement the MAP_HUGETLB mmap() flag.

At the time the search was introduced, increasing the per-cpu structures would waste a lot of memory as per-cpu structures were statically allocated at compile-time. This is no longer the case. The patches are as follows. They are based on mmotm-2009-08-27. Patch 1 adds multiple lists to struct per_cpu_pages, one per migratetype that can be stored on the PCP lists. Patch 2 notes that the pcpu drain path check empty lists multiple times. The patch reduces the number of checks by maintaining a count of free lists encountered. Lists containing pages will then free multiple pages in batch The patches were tested with kernbench, netperf udp/tcp, hackbench and sysbench. The netperf tests were not bound to any CPU in particular and were run such that the results should be 99% confidence that the reported results are within 1% of the estimated mean. sysbench was run with a postgres background and read-only tests. Similar to netperf, it was run multiple times so that it's 99% confidence results are within 1%. The patches were tested on x86, x86-64 and ppc64 as x86: Intel Pentium D 3GHz with 8G RAM (no-brand machine) kernbench - No significant difference, variance well within noise netperf-udp - 1.34% to 2.28% gain netperf-tcp - 0.45% to 1.22% gain hackbench - Small variances, very close to noise sysbench - Very small gains x86-64: AMD Phenom 9950 1.3GHz with 8G RAM (no-brand machine) kernbench - No significant difference, variance well within noise netperf-udp - 1.83% to 10.42% gains netperf-tcp - No conclusive until buffer >= PAGE_SIZE 4096 +15.83% 8192 + 0.34% (not significant) 16384 + 1% hackbench - Small gains, very close to noise sysbench - 0.79% to 1.6% gain ppc64: PPC970MP 2.5GHz with 10GB RAM (it's a terrasoft powerstation) kernbench - No significant difference, variance well within noise netperf-udp - 2-3% gain for almost all buffer sizes tested netperf-tcp - losses on small buffers, gains on larger buffers possibly indicates some bad caching effect. hackbench - No significant difference sysbench - 2-4% gain This patch: Currently the per-cpu page allocator searches the PCP list for pages of the correct migrate-type to reduce the possibility of pages being inappropriate placed from a fragmentation perspective. This search is potentially expensive in a fast-path and undesirable. Splitting the per-cpu list into multiple lists increases the size of a per-cpu structure and this was potentially a major problem at the time the search was introduced. These problem has been mitigated as now only the necessary number of structures is allocated for the running system. This patch replaces a list search in the per-cpu allocator with one list per migrate type. The potential snag with this approach is when bulk freeing pages. We round-robin free pages based on migrate type which has little bearing on the cache hotness of the page and potentially checks empty lists repeatedly in the event the majority of PCP pages are of one type.

Thus __out_of_memory() call select_bad_process() again. but select_bad_process() select the same task. It mean kernel fall in livelock. The fact is, select_bad_process() must select killable task. otherwise OOM logic go into livelock. And root cause is, oom_adj shouldn't be per-thread value. it should be per-process value because OOM-killer kill a process, not thread. Thus This patch moves oomkilladj (now more appropriately named oom_adj) from struct task_struct to struct signal_struct. it naturally prevent select_bad_process() choose wrong task.
