* rcu: Use softirq to address performance regressionShaohua Li2011-06-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit a26ac2455ffcf3(rcu: move TREE_RCU from softirq to kthread) introduced performance regression. In an AIM7 test, this commit degraded performance by about 40%. The commit runs rcu callbacks in a kthread instead of softirq. We observed high rate of context switch which is caused by this. Out test system has 64 CPUs and HZ is 1000, so we saw more than 64k context switch per second which is caused by RCU's per-CPU kthread. A trace showed that most of the time the RCU per-CPU kthread doesn't actually handle any callbacks, but instead just does a very small amount of work handling grace periods. This means that RCU's per-CPU kthreads are making the scheduler do quite a bit of work in order to allow a very small amount of RCU-related processing to be done. Alex Shi's analysis determined that this slowdown is due to lock contention within the scheduler. Unfortunately, as Peter Zijlstra points out, the scheduler's real-time semantics require global action, which means that this contention is inherent in real-time scheduling. (Yes, perhaps someone will come up with a workaround -- otherwise, -rt is not going to do well on large SMP systems -- but this patch will work around this issue in the meantime. And "the meantime" might well be forever.) This patch therefore re-introduces softirq processing to RCU, but only for core RCU work. RCU callbacks are still executed in kthread context, so that only a small amount of RCU work runs in softirq context in the common case. This should minimize ksoftirqd execution, allowing us to skip boosting of ksoftirqd for CONFIG_RCU_BOOST=y kernels.

However, these capabilities are also being used in the p2p_find phase, and the mesh-validation broke it.

| * | net: tracepoint of net_dev_xmit sees freed skb and causes panicKoki Sanagi2011-06-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Because there is a possibility that skb is kfree_skb()ed and zero cleared after ndo_start_xmit, we should not see the contents of skb like skb->len and skb->dev->name after ndo_start_xmit. But trace_net_dev_xmit does that and causes panic by NULL pointer dereference. This patch fixes trace_net_dev_xmit not to see the contents of skb directly. If you want to reproduce this panic, 1. Get tracepoint of net_dev_xmit on 2. Create 2 guests on KVM 2. Make 2 guests use virtio_net 4. Execute netperf from one to another for a long time as a network burden 5. host will panic(It takes about 30 minutes) Signed-off-by: Koki Sanagi <sanagi.koki@jp.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Add flag to make this explicit. User-space can check for TP_STATUS_VLAN_VALID || tp_vlan_tci > 0, which will be backwards compatible. Older could would have just checked for tp_vlan_tci, so it will work no worse than before.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It was not a good idea to start dereferencing disk->queue from the fs sysfs strategy for displaying discard alignment. We ran into first a NULL pointer deref, and after fixing that we sometimes see unvalid disk->queue pointer values. Since discard is the only one of the bunch actually looking into the queue, just revert the change. This reverts commit 23ceb5b7719e9276d4fa72a3ecf94dd396755276. Conflicts: fs/partitions/check.c

It was broken in so many ways, and results in random odd pty issues. It re-introduced the buggy schedule_work() in flush_to_ldisc() that can cause endless work-loops (see commit a5660b41af6a: "tty: fix endless work loop when the buffer fills up"). It also used an "unsigned int" return value fo the ->receive_buf() function, but then made multiple functions return a negative error code, and didn't actually check for the error in the caller. And it didn't actually work at all. BenH bisected down odd tty behavior to it: "It looks like the patch is causing some major malfunctions of the X server for me, possibly related to PTYs. For example, cat'ing a large file in a gnome terminal hangs the kernel for -minutes- in a loop of what looks like flush_to_ldisc/workqueue code, (some ftrace data in the quoted bits further down). ... Some more data: It -looks- like what happens is that the flush_to_ldisc work queue entry constantly re-queues itself (because the PTY is full ?) and the workqueue thread will basically loop forver calling it without ever scheduling, thus starving the consumer process that could have emptied the PTY." which is pretty much exactly the problem we fixed in a5660b41af6a. Milton Miller pointed out the 'unsigned int' issue.

In the loop in the internal __domain_mapping() function, we simply detect if we are mapping: - size >= 2MiB, and - virtual address aligned to 2MiB, and - physical address aligned to 2MiB, and - on hardware that supports superpages. (and likewise for larger superpages). We automatically use a superpage for such mappings. We never have to worry about *breaking* superpages, since we trust that we will always *unmap* the same range that was mapped. So all we need to do is ensure that dma_pte_clear_range() will also cope with superpages. Adjust pfn_to_dma_pte() to take a superpage 'level' as an argument, so it can return a PTE at the appropriate level rather than always extending the page tables all the way down to level 1. Again, this is simplified by the fact that we should never encounter existing small pages when we're creating a mapping; any old mapping that used the same virtual range will have been entirely removed and its obsolete page tables freed. Provide an 'intel_iommu=sp_off' argument on the command line as a chicken bit. Not that it should ever be required. == The original commit seen in the iommu-2.6.git was Youquan's implementation (and completion) of my own half-baked code which I'd typed into an email. Followed by half a dozen subsequent 'fixes'. I've taken the unusual step of rewriting history and collapsing the original commits in order to keep the main history simpler, and make life easier for the people who are going to have to backport this to older kernels. And also so I can give it a more coherent commit comment which (hopefully) gives a better explanation of what's going on.

Implement using the new event_idx feature. Note: it might seem advantageous to let the drivers ask for a callback after a specific capacity has been reached. However, as a single head can free many entries in the descriptor table, we don't really have a clue about capacity until get_buf is called. The API is the simplest to implement at the moment, we'll see what kind of hints drivers can pass when there's more than one user of the feature. Signed-off-by: Michael S.

Result is that we read/write storage keys from random pages and do not have a working dirty bit tracking at all. E.g. SetPageUpdate() doesn't clear the dirty bit of requested pages, which for example ext4 doesn't like very much and panics after a while.

The code calculated the number of reserved structures based on the request size and used a "magic" multiplication constant of 4. This patch changes it to reserve a fixed number - itself still chosen quite arbitrarily. Further testing might show if there is a better number to choose. Note that if there is no memory pressure, we can still allocate an arbitrary number of "struct io" structures. One structure is enough to process the whole request.

It uses this mainly for registering and unregistering local RPC services securely with the local rpcbind, but we could also conceivably use it as a generic upcall mechanism. This patch provides a client-side only implementation for the moment. We might also consider a server-side implementation to provide AF_LOCAL access to NLM (for statd downcalls, and such like). Autobinding is not supported on kernel AF_LOCAL transports at this time. Kernel ULPs must specify the pathname of the remote endpoint when an AF_LOCAL transport is created. rpcbind supports registering services available via AF_LOCAL, so the kernel could handle it with some adjustment to ->rpcbind and ->set_port. But we don't need this feature for doing upcalls via well-known named sockets. This has not been tested with ULPs that move a substantial amount of data. Thus, I can't attest to how robust the write_space and congestion management logic is. Signed-off-by: Chuck Lever <chuck.lever@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

Currently we have below codes in processor_physically_present, cpuid = acpi_get_cpuid(...); if ((cpuid == -1) && (num_possible_cpus() > 1)) return false; return true; In UP kernel, acpi_get_cpuid(...) always return -1 and num_possible_cpus() always return 1, so processor_physically_present(...) always returns true for all passed in processor handles. This is wrong for UP processor or SMP processor running UP kernel. This patch removes the !SMP version of acpi_get_cpuid(), so both UP and SMP kernel use the same acpi_get_cpuid function.
