* cgroup: CSS ID supportKAMEZAWA Hiroyuki2009-04-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Patch for Per-CSS(Cgroup Subsys State) ID and private hierarchy code. This patch attaches unique ID to each css and provides following. - css_lookup(subsys, id) returns pointer to struct cgroup_subysys_state of id. - css_get_next(subsys, id, rootid, depth, foundid) returns the next css under "root" by scanning When cgroup_subsys->use_id is set, an id for css is maintained. The cgroup framework only parepares - css_id of root css for subsys - id is automatically attached at creation of css. - id is *not* freed automatically. Because the cgroup framework don't know lifetime of cgroup_subsys_state. free_css_id() function is provided. This must be called by subsys. There are several reasons to develop this. - Saving space .... For example, memcg's swap_cgroup is array of pointers to cgroup. But it is not necessary to be very fast. By replacing pointers(8bytes per ent) to ID (2byes per ent), we can reduce much amount of memory usage. - Scanning without lock. CSS_ID provides "scan id under this ROOT" function. By this, scanning css under root can be written without locks. ex) do { rcu_read_lock(); next = cgroup_get_next(subsys, id, root, &found); /* check sanity of next here */ css_tryget(); rcu_read_unlock(); id = found + 1 } while(...) Characteristics: - Each css has unique ID under subsys. - Lifetime of ID is controlled by subsys. - css ID contains "ID" and "Depth in hierarchy" and stack of hierarchy - Allowed ID is 1-65535, ID 0 is UNUSED ID. Design Choices: - scan-by-ID v.s. scan-by-tree-walk. As /proc's pid scan does, scan-by-ID is robust when scanning is done by following kind of routine. scan -> rest a while(release a lock) -> conitunue from interrupted memcg's hierarchical reclaim does this. - When subsys->use_id is set, # of css in the system is limited to 65535.

* idr: make idr_remove_all() do removal -before- free_layer()Paul E. McKenney2009-03-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fix a problem in the IDR system, where an idr_remove_all() hands a data element to call_rcu() (via free_layer()) before making that data element inaccessible to new readers. This is very bad, and results in readers still having a reference to this data element at the end of the grace period. Tests on large machines that concurrently map and unmap user-space memory within the same multithreaded process result in crashes within about five minutes. Applying this patch increases the kernel's longevity to the three-to-eight-hour range. There appear to be other similar problems in idr_get_empty_slot() and sub_remove(), but I fixed the easy one in idr_remove_all() first. It is therefore no surprise that failures still occur.

* lib/idr.c: use kmem_cache_zalloc() for the idr_layer cacheAndrew Morton2009-01-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | David points out that the idr_remove_all() function returns unused slabs to the kmem cache, but needs to zero them first or else they will be uninitialized upon next use. This causes crashes which have been observed in the firewire subsystem. He fixed this by zeroing the object before freeing it in idr_remove_all(). But we agree that simply removing the constructor and zeroing the object at allocation time is simpler than relying upon slab constructor machinery and might even be faster. This problem was introduced by "idr: make idr_remove rcu-safe" (commit cf481c20c476ad2c0febdace9ce23f5a4db19582), which was first released in 2.6.27. There are no known codesites which trigger this bug in 2.6.27 or 2.6.28. The post-2.6.28 firewire changes are the only known triggerer. There might of course be not-yet-discovered triggerers in 2.6.27 and 2.6.28, and there might be out-of-tree triggerers which are added to those kernel versions. I'll let the -stable guys decide whether they want to backport this fix.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The last patch to lib/idr.c caused a bug if idr_get_new_above() was called on an empty idr. Usually, nodes stay on the same layer. New layers are added to the top of the tree. The exception is idr_get_new_above() on an empty tree: In this case, the new root node is first added on layer 0, then moved upwards. p->layer was not updated.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds an iterator function for the idr data structure. Compared to just iterating through the idr with an integer and idr_find, this iterator is (almost, but not quite) linear in the number of elements, as opposed to the number of integers in the range covered by the idr. This makes a difference for sparse idrs, but more importantly, it's a nicer way to iterate through the elements. The drm subsystem is moving to idr for tracking contexts and drawables, and with this change, we can use the idr exclusively for tracking these resources.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Implement idr based id allocator. ida is used the same way idr is used but lacks id -> ptr translation and thus consumes much less memory. struct ida_bitmap is attached as leaf nodes to idr tree which is managed by the idr code. Each ida_bitmap is 128bytes long and contains slightly less than a thousand slots. ida is more aggressive with releasing extra resources acquired using ida_pre_get(). After every successful id allocation, ida frees one reserved idr_layer if possible. Reserved ida_bitmap is not freed automatically but only one ida_bitmap is reserved and it's almost always used right away. Under most circumstances, ida won't hold on to memory for too long which isn't actively used. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <htejun@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

If the cursor was at the end of the upper level, we need to go further than that. This wasn't implemented and when that happens the part of the cursor which indexes into the upper level wraps and sub_alloc() ends up searching the wrong bitmap. It allocates id which doesn't match the actual slot. This patch fixes this by restarting from the top if the search needs to go higher than one level.

* [PATCH] Convert idr's internal locking to _irqsave variantRoland Dreier2006-07-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, the code in lib/idr.c uses a bare spin_lock(&idp->lock) to do internal locking. This is a nasty trap for code that might call idr functions from different contexts; for example, it seems perfectly reasonable to call idr_get_new() from process context and idr_remove() from interrupt context -- but with the current locking this would lead to a potential deadlock. The simplest fix for this is to just convert the idr locking to use spin_lock_irqsave(). In particular, this fixes a very complicated locking issue detected by lockdep, involving the ib_ipoib driver's priv->lock and dev->_xmit_lock, which get involved with the ib_sa module's query_idr.lock.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | There is an off by one problem with idr_get_new_above. The comment and function name suggest that it will return an id > starting_id, but it actually returned an id >= starting_id, and kernel callers other than inotify treated it as such. The patch below fixes the comment, and fixes inotifys usage. The function name still doesn't match the behaviour, but it never did.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
