* kprobes: support kretprobe blacklistMasami Hiramatsu2007-10-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Introduce architecture dependent kretprobe blacklists to prohibit users from inserting return probes on the function in which kprobes can be inserted but kretprobes can not. This patch also removes "__kprobes" mark from "__switch_to" on x86_64 and registers "__switch_to" to the blacklist on x86-64, because that mark is to prohibit user from inserting only kretprobe.

* cpuset: remove sched domain hooks from cpusetsPaul Jackson2007-10-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Remove the cpuset hooks that defined sched domains depending on the setting of the 'cpu_exclusive' flag. The cpu_exclusive flag can only be set on a child if it is set on the parent. This made that flag painfully unsuitable for use as a flag defining a partitioning of a system. It was entirely unobvious to a cpuset user what partitioning of sched domains they would be causing when they set that one cpu_exclusive bit on one cpuset, because it depended on what CPUs were in the remainder of that cpusets siblings and child cpusets, after subtracting out other cpu_exclusive cpusets. Furthermore, there was no way on production systems to query the result. Using the cpu_exclusive flag for this was simply wrong from the get go. Fortunately, it was sufficiently borked that so far as I know, almost no successful use has been made of this. One real time group did use it to affectively isolate CPUs from any load balancing efforts. They are willing to adapt to alternative mechanisms for this, such as someway to manipulate the list of isolated CPUs on a running system. They can do without this present cpu_exclusive based mechanism while we develop an alternative. There is a real risk, to the best of my understanding, of users accidentally setting up a partitioned scheduler domains, inhibiting desired load balancing across all their CPUs, due to the nonobvious (from the cpuset perspective) side affects of the cpu_exclusive flag. Furthermore, since there was no way on a running system to see what one was doing with sched domains, this change will be invisible to any using code. Unless they have real insight to the scheduler load balancing choices, they will be unable to detect that this change has been made in the kernel's behaviour. Initial discussion on lkml of this patch has generated much comment. My (probably controversial) take on that discussion is that it has reached a rough concensus that the current cpuset cpu_exclusive mechanism for defining sched domains is borked. There is no concensus on the replacement. But since we can remove this mechanism, and since its continued presence risks causing unwanted partitioning of the schedulers load balancing, we should remove it while we can, as we proceed to work the replacement scheduler domain mechanisms.

* DCA: Add Direct Cache Access driverShannon Nelson2007-10-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Direct Cache Access (DCA) is a method for warming the CPU cache before data is used, with the intent of lessening the impact of cache misses. This patch adds a manager and interface for matching up client requests for DCA services with devices that offer DCA services. In order to use DCA, a module must do bus writes with the appropriate tag bits set to trigger a cache read for a specific CPU. However, different CPUs and chipsets can require different sets of tag bits, and the methods for determining the correct bits may be simple hardcoding or may be a hardware specific magic incantation. This interface is a way for DCA clients to find the correct tag bits for the targeted CPU without needing to know the specifics.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch makes a number of simplifications enabled by the removal of CHOOSE_MODE. There were lots of functions that looked like int foo(args){ foo_skas(args); } The bodies of foo_skas are now folded into foo, and their declarations (and sometimes entire header files) are deleted. In addition, the union uml_pt_regs, which was a union between the tt and skas register formats, is now a struct, with the tt-mode arm of the union being removed. It turns out that usr2_handler was unused, so it is gone.

* uml: throw out CHOOSE_MODEJeff Dike2007-10-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The next stage after removing code which depends on CONFIG_MODE_TT is removing the CHOOSE_MODE abstraction, which provided both compile-time and run-time branching to either tt-mode or skas-mode code. This patch removes choose-mode.h and all inclusions of it, and replaces all CHOOSE_MODE invocations with the skas branch. This leaves a number of trivial functions which will be dealt with in a later patch. There are some changes in the uaccess and tls support which go somewhat beyond this and eliminate some of the now-redundant functions.

* uml: throw out CONFIG_MODE_TTJeff Dike2007-10-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patchset throws out tt mode, which has been non-functional for a while. This is done in phases, interspersed with code cleanups on the affected files. The removal is done as follows: remove all code, config options, and files which depend on CONFIG_MODE_TT get rid of the CHOOSE_MODE macro, which decided whether to call tt-mode or skas-mode code, and replace invocations with their skas portions replace all now-trivial procedures with their skas equivalents There are now a bunch of now-redundant pieces of data structures, including mode-specific pieces of the thread structure, pt_regs, and mm_context. These are all replaced with their skas-specific contents. As part of the ongoing style compliance project, I made a style pass over all files that were changed. There are three such patches, one for each phase, covering the files affected by that phase but no later ones. I noticed that we weren't freeing the LDT state associated with a process when it exited, so that's fixed in one of the later patches. The last patch is a tidying patch which I've had for a while, but which caused inexplicable crashes under tt mode. Since that is no longer a problem, this can now go in. This patch: Start getting rid of tt mode support. This patch throws out CONFIG_MODE_TT and all config options, code, and files which depend on it. CONFIG_MODE_SKAS is gone and everything that depends on it is included unconditionally. The few changed lines are in re-written Kconfig help, lines which needed something skas-related removed from them, and a few more which weren't strictly deletions.

Add a new field to kmem_cache_cpu that contains the object size. That cacheline must already be used in the hotpaths. So we save one cacheline on every slab_alloc if we zero. We need to update the kmem_cache_cpu object size if an aliasing operation changes the objsize of an non debug slab.

* SLUB: Place kmem_cache_cpu structures in a NUMA aware wayChristoph Lameter2007-10-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The kmem_cache_cpu structures introduced are currently an array placed in the kmem_cache struct. Meaning the kmem_cache_cpu structures are overwhelmingly on the wrong node for systems with a higher amount of nodes. These are performance critical structures since the per node information has to be touched for every alloc and free in a slab. In order to place the kmem_cache_cpu structure optimally we put an array of pointers to kmem_cache_cpu structs in kmem_cache (similar to SLAB). However, the kmem_cache_cpu structures can now be allocated in a more intelligent way. We would like to put per cpu structures for the same cpu but different slab caches in cachelines together to save space and decrease the cache footprint. However, the slab allocators itself control only allocations per node. We set up a simple per cpu array for every processor with 100 per cpu structures which is usually enough to get them all set up right. If we run out then we fall back to kmalloc_node. This also solves the bootstrap problem since we do not have to use slab allocator functions early in boot to get memory for the small per cpu structures. Pro: - NUMA aware placement improves memory performance - All global structures in struct kmem_cache become readonly - Dense packing of per cpu structures reduces cacheline footprint in SMP and NUMA. - Potential avoidance of exclusive cacheline fetches on the free and alloc hotpath since multiple kmem_cache_cpu structures are in one cacheline. This is particularly important for the kmalloc array. Cons: - Additional reference to one read only cacheline (per cpu array of pointers to kmem_cache_cpu) in both slab_alloc() and slab_free().

* SLUB: Move page->offset to kmem_cache_cpu->offsetChristoph Lameter2007-10-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We need the offset from the page struct during slab_alloc and slab_free. In both cases we also reference the cacheline of the kmem_cache_cpu structure. We can therefore move the offset field into the kmem_cache_cpu structure freeing up 16 bits in the page struct. Moving the offset allows an allocation from slab_alloc() without touching the page struct in the hot path. The only thing left in slab_free() that touches the page struct cacheline for per cpu freeing is the checking of SlabDebug(page). The next patch deals with that. Use the available 16 bits to broaden page->inuse. More than 64k objects per slab become possible and we can get rid of the checks for that limitation. No need anymore to shrink the order of slabs if we boot with 2M sized slabs (slub_min_order=9). No need anymore to switch off the offset calculation for very large slabs since the field in the kmem_cache_cpu structure is 32 bits and so the offset field can now handle slab sizes of up to 8GB.

* SLUB: Avoid page struct cacheline bouncing due to remote frees to cpu slabChristoph Lameter2007-10-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A remote free may access the same page struct that also contains the lockless freelist for the cpu slab. If objects have a short lifetime and are freed by a different processor then remote frees back to the slab from which we are currently allocating are frequent. The cacheline with the page struct needs to be repeately acquired in exclusive mode by both the allocating thread and the freeing thread. If this is frequent enough then performance will suffer because of cacheline bouncing. This patchset puts the lockless_freelist pointer in its own cacheline. In order to make that happen we introduce a per cpu structure called kmem_cache_cpu. Instead of keeping an array of pointers to page structs we now keep an array to a per cpu structure that--among other things--contains the pointer to the lockless freelist. The freeing thread can then keep possession of exclusive access to the page struct cacheline while the allocating thread keeps its exclusive access to the cacheline containing the per cpu structure. This works as long as the allocating cpu is able to service its request from the lockless freelist. If the lockless freelist runs empty then the allocating thread needs to acquire exclusive access to the cacheline with the page struct lock the slab. The allocating thread will then check if new objects were freed to the per cpu slab. If so it will keep the slab as the cpu slab and continue with the recently remote freed objects. So the allocating thread can take a series of just freed remote pages and dish them out again. Ideally allocations could be just recycling objects in the same slab this way which will lead to an ideal allocation / remote free pattern. The number of objects that can be handled in this way is limited by the capacity of one slab. Increasing slab size via slub_min_objects/ slub_max_order may increase the number of objects and therefore performance. If the allocating thread runs out of objects and finds that no objects were put back by the remote processor then it will retrieve a new slab (from the partial lists or from the page allocator) and start with a whole new set of objects while the remote thread may still be freeing objects to the old cpu slab. This may then repeat until the new slab is also exhausted. If remote freeing has freed objects in the earlier slab then that earlier slab will now be on the partial freelist and the allocating thread will pick that slab next for allocation. So the loop is extended. However, both threads need to take the list_lock to make the swizzling via the partial list happen. It is likely that this kind of scheme will keep the objects being passed around to a small set that can be kept in the cpu caches leading to increased performance. More code cleanups become possible: - Instead of passing a cpu we can now pass a kmem_cache_cpu structure around. Allows reducing the number of parameters to various functions. - Can define a new node_match() function for NUMA to encapsulate locality checks. Effect on allocations: Cachelines touched before this patch: Write: page cache struct and first cacheline of object Cachelines touched after this patch: Write: kmem_cache_cpu cacheline and first cacheline of object Read: page cache struct (but see later patch that avoids touching that cacheline) The handling when the lockless alloc list runs empty gets to be a bit more complicated since another cacheline has now to be written to. But that is halfway out of the hot path. Effect on freeing: Cachelines touched before this patch: Write: page_struct and first cacheline of object Cachelines touched after this patch depending on how we free: Write(to cpu_slab): kmem_cache_cpu struct and first cacheline of object Write(to other): page struct and first cacheline of object Read(to cpu_slab): page struct to id slab etc. (but see later patch that avoids touching the page struct on free) Read(to other): cpu local kmem_cache_cpu struct to verify its not the cpu slab. Summary: Pro: - Distinct cachelines so that concurrent remote frees and local allocs on a cpuslab can occur without cacheline bouncing. - Avoids potential bouncing cachelines because of neighboring per cpu pointer updates in kmem_cache's cpu_slab structure since it now grows to a cacheline (Therefore remove the comment that talks about that concern). Cons: - Freeing objects now requires the reading of one additional cacheline. That can be mitigated for some cases by the following patches but its not possible to completely eliminate these references. - Memory usage grows slightly. The size of each per cpu object is blown up from one word (pointing to the page_struct) to one cacheline with various data. So this is NR_CPUS*NR_SLABS*L1_BYTES more memory use. Lets say NR_SLABS is 100 and a cache line size of 128 then we have just increased SLAB metadata requirements by 12.8k per cpu.

* Do not depend on MAX_ORDER when grouping pages by mobilityMel Gorman2007-10-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently mobility grouping works at the MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES level. This makes sense for the majority of users where this is also the huge page size. However, on platforms like ia64 where the huge page size is runtime configurable it is desirable to group at a lower order. On x86_64 and occasionally on x86, the hugepage size may not always be MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES. This patch groups pages together based on the value of HUGETLB_PAGE_ORDER. It uses a compile-time constant if possible and a variable where the huge page size is runtime configurable. It is assumed that grouping should be done at the lowest sensible order and that the user would not want to override this. If this is not true, page_block order could be forced to a variable initialised via a boot-time kernel parameter. One potential issue with this patch is that IA64 now parses hugepagesz with early_param() instead of __setup(). __setup() is called after the memory allocator has been initialised and the pageblock bitmaps already setup. In tests on one IA64 there did not seem to be any problem with using early_param() and in fact may be more correct as it guarantees the parameter is handled before the parsing of hugepages=.

* don't group high order atomic allocationsMel Gorman2007-10-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Grouping high-order atomic allocations together was intended to allow bursty users of atomic allocations to work such as e1000 in situations where their preallocated buffers were depleted. This did not work in at least one case with a wireless network adapter needing order-1 allocations frequently. To resolve that, the free pages used for min_free_kbytes were moved to separate contiguous blocks with the patch bias-the-location-of-pages-freed-for-min_free_kbytes-in-the-same-max_order_nr_pages-blocks. It is felt that keeping the free pages in the same contiguous blocks should be sufficient for bursty short-lived high-order atomic allocations to succeed, maybe even with the e1000. Even if there is a failure, increasing the value of min_free_kbytes will free pages as contiguous bloks in contrast to the standard buddy allocator which makes no attempt to keep the minimum number of free pages contiguous. This patch backs out grouping high order atomic allocations together to determine if it is really needed or not. If a new report comes in about high-order atomic allocations failing, the feature can be reintroduced to determine if it fixes the problem or not. As a side-effect, this patch reduces by 1 the number of bits required to track the mobility type of pages within a MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES block.

* Bias the location of pages freed for min_free_kbytes in the same ↵Mel Gorman2007-10-16

The effect of this is that the pages free to satisfy min_free_kbytes tends to be preserved since boot time at the same location of memory ffor a very long time and as a contiguous block. When an administrator sets the reserve at 16384 at boot time, it tends to be the same MAX_ORDER blocks that remain free. This allows the occasional high atomic allocation to succeed up until the point the blocks are split. In practice, it is difficult to split these blocks but when they do split, the benefit of having min_free_kbytes for contiguous blocks disappears. Additionally, increasing min_free_kbytes once the system has been running for some time has no guarantee of creating contiguous blocks. On the other hand, CONFIG_PAGE_GROUP_BY_MOBILITY favours splitting large blocks when there are no free pages of the appropriate type available. A side-effect of this is that all blocks in memory tends to be used up and the contiguous free blocks from boot time are not preserved like in the vanilla allocator. This can cause a problem if a new caller is unwilling to reclaim or does not reclaim for long enough. A failure scenario was found for a wireless network device allocating order-1 atomic allocations but the allocations were not intense or frequent enough for a whole block of pages to be preserved for MIGRATE_HIGHALLOC. This was reproduced on a desktop by booting with mem=256mb, forcing the driver to allocate at order-1, running a bittorrent client (downloading a debian ISO) and building a kernel with -j2. This patch addresses the problem on the desktop machine booted with mem=256mb. It works by setting aside a reserve of MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES blocks, the number of which depends on the value of min_free_kbytes. These blocks are only fallen back to when there is no other free pages. Then the smallest possible page is used just like the normal buddy allocator instead of the largest possible page to preserve contiguous pages The pages in free lists in the reserve blocks are never taken for another migrate type. The results is that even if min_free_kbytes is set to a low value, contiguous blocks will be preserved in the MIGRATE_RESERVE blocks. This works better than the vanilla allocator because if min_free_kbytes is increased, a new reserve block will be chosen based on the location of reclaimable pages and the block will free up as contiguous pages. In the vanilla allocator, no effort is made to target a block of pages to free as contiguous pages and min_free_kbytes pages are scattered randomly. This effect has been observed on the test machine. min_free_kbytes was set initially low but it was kept as a contiguous free block within MIGRATE_RESERVE. min_free_kbytes was then set to a higher value and over a period of time, the free blocks were within the reserve and coalescing. How long it takes to free up depends on how quickly LRU is rotating. Amusingly, this means that more activity will free the blocks faster. This mechanism potentially replaces MIGRATE_HIGHALLOC as it may be more effective than grouping contiguous free pages together. It all depends on whether the number of active atomic high allocations exceeds min_free_kbytes or not. If the number of active allocations exceeds min_free_kbytes, it's worth it but maybe in that situation, min_free_kbytes should be set higher. Once there are no more reports of allocation failures, a patch will be submitted that backs out MIGRATE_HIGHALLOC and see if the reports stay missing.

* Fix corruption of memmap on IA64 SPARSEMEM when mem_section is not a power of 2Mel Gorman2007-10-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There are problems in the use of SPARSEMEM and pageblock flags that causes problems on ia64. The first part of the problem is that units are incorrect in SECTION_BLOCKFLAGS_BITS computation. This results in a map_section's section_mem_map being treated as part of a bitmap which isn't good. This was evident with an invalid virtual address when mem_init attempted to free bootmem pages while relinquishing control from the bootmem allocator. The second part of the problem occurs because the pageblock flags bitmap is be located with the mem_section. The SECTIONS_PER_ROOT computation using sizeof (mem_section) may not be a power of 2 depending on the size of the bitmap. This renders masks and other such things not power of 2 base. This issue was seen with SPARSEMEM_EXTREME on ia64. This patch moves the bitmap outside of mem_section and uses a pointer instead in the mem_section. The bitmaps are allocated when the section is being initialised. Note that sparse_early_usemap_alloc() does not use alloc_remap() like sparse_early_mem_map_alloc(). The allocation required for the bitmap on x86, the only architecture that uses alloc_remap is typically smaller than a cache line. alloc_remap() pads out allocations to the cache size which would be a needless waste. Credit to Bob Picco for identifying the original problem and effecting a fix for the SECTION_BLOCKFLAGS_BITS calculation. Credit to Andy Whitcroft for devising the best way of allocating the bitmaps only when required for the section.
