2011-01-07fs: dcache scale d_unhashedNick Piggin10-54/+102
Protect d_unhashed(dentry) condition with d_lock. This means keeping DCACHE_UNHASHED bit in synch with hash manipulations. Signed-off-by: Nick Piggin <[email protected]>
2011-01-07fs: dcache scale dentry refcountNick Piggin21-69/+126
Make d_count non-atomic and protect it with d_lock. This allows us to ensure a 0 refcount dentry remains 0 without dcache_lock. It is also fairly natural when we start protecting many other dentry members with d_lock. Signed-off-by: Nick Piggin <[email protected]>
2011-01-07fs: dcache scale lruNick Piggin1-28/+84
Add a new lock, dcache_lru_lock, to protect the dcache LRU list from concurrent modification. d_lru is also protected by d_lock, which allows LRU lists to be accessed without the lru lock, using RCU in future patches. Signed-off-by: Nick Piggin <[email protected]>
2011-01-07fs: dcache scale hashNick Piggin2-44/+64
Add a new lock, dcache_hash_lock, to protect the dcache hash table from concurrent modification. d_hash is also protected by d_lock. Signed-off-by: Nick Piggin <[email protected]>
2011-01-07hostfs: simplify lockingNick Piggin3-17/+24
Remove dcache_lock locking from hostfs filesystem, and move it into dcache helpers. All that is required is a coherent path name. Protection from concurrent modification of the namespace after path name generation is not provided in current code, because dcache_lock is dropped before the path is used.

2011-01-07fs: change d_hash for rcu-walkNick Piggin25-51/+94
Change d_hash so it may be called from lock-free RCU lookups. See similar patch for d_compare for details. For in-tree filesystems, this is just a mechanical change. Signed-off-by: Nick Piggin <[email protected]>
2011-01-07fs: change d_compare for rcu-walkNick Piggin23-157/+242
Change d_compare so it may be called from lock-free RCU lookups. This does put significant restrictions on what may be done from the callback, however there don't seem to have been any problems with in-tree fses. If some strange use case pops up that _really_ cannot cope with the rcu-walk rules, we can just add new rcu-unaware callbacks, which would cause name lookup to drop out of rcu-walk mode. For in-tree filesystems, this is just a mechanical change. Signed-off-by: Nick Piggin <[email protected]>
2011-01-07fs: name case update methodNick Piggin4-31/+37
smpfs and ncpfs want to update a live dentry name in-place. Rather than have them open code the locking, provide a documented dcache API. Signed-off-by: Nick Piggin <[email protected]>
2011-01-07jfs: dont overwrite dentry name in d_revalidateNick Piggin1-8/+35
Use vfat's method for dealing with negative dentries to preserve case, rather than overwrite dentry name in d_revalidate, which is a bit ugly and also gets in the way of doing lock-free path walking. Signed-off-by: Nick Piggin <[email protected]>

2011-01-07fs: change d_delete semanticsNick Piggin22-42/+47
Change d_delete from a dentry deletion notification to a dentry caching advise, more like ->drop_inode. Require it to be constant and idempotent, and not take d_lock. This is how all existing filesystems use the callback anyway. This makes fine grained dentry locking of dput and dentry lru scanning much simpler. Signed-off-by: Nick Piggin <[email protected]>
2011-01-07fs: dcache documentation cleanupNick Piggin1-12/+6

2011-01-07config fs: avoid switching ->d_op on live dentryNick Piggin1-8/+9
Switching d_op on a live dentry is racy in general, so avoid it. In this case it is a negative dentry, which is safer, but there are still concurrent ops which may be called on d_op in that case (eg. d_revalidate). So in general a filesystem may not do this. Fix configfs so as not to do this. Signed-off-by: Nick Piggin <[email protected]>

2011-01-07fs: use fast counters for vfs cachesNick Piggin2-13/+23
percpu_counter library generates quite nasty code, so unless you need to dynamically allocate counters or take fast approximate value, a simple per cpu set of counters is much better. The percpu_counter can never be made to work as well, because it has an indirection from pointer to percpu memory, and it can't use direct this_cpu_inc interfaces because it doesn't use static PER_CPU data, so code will always be worse. In the fastpath, it is the difference between this: incl %gs:nr_dentry # nr_dentry and this: movl percpu_counter_batch(%rip), %edx # percpu_counter_batch, movl $1, %esi #, movq $nr_dentry, %rdi #, call __percpu_counter_add # (plus I clobber registers) __percpu_counter_add: pushq %rbp # movq %rsp, %rbp #, subq $32, %rsp #, movq %rbx, -24(%rbp) #, movq %r12, -16(%rbp) #, movq %r13, -8(%rbp) #, movq %rdi, %rbx # fbc, fbc #APP # 216 "/home/npiggin/usr/src/linux-2.6/arch/x86/include/asm/thread_info.h" 1 movq %gs:kernel_stack,%rax #, pfo_ret__ # 0 "" 2 #NO_APP incl -8124(%rax) # <variable>.preempt_count movq 32(%rdi), %r12 # <variable>.counters, tcp_ptr__ #APP # 78 "lib/percpu_counter.c" 1 add %gs:this_cpu_off, %r12 # this_cpu_off, tcp_ptr__ # 0 "" 2 #NO_APP movslq (%r12),%r13 #* tcp_ptr__, tmp73 movslq %edx,%rax # batch, batch addq %rsi, %r13 # amount, count cmpq %rax, %r13 # batch, count jge .L27 #, negl %edx # tmp76 movslq %edx,%rdx # tmp76, tmp77 cmpq %rdx, %r13 # tmp77, count jg .L28 #, .L27: movq %rbx, %rdi # fbc, call _raw_spin_lock # addq %r13, 8(%rbx) # count, <variable>.count movq %rbx, %rdi # fbc, movl $0, (%r12) #,* tcp_ptr__ call _raw_spin_unlock # .L29: #APP # 216 "/home/npiggin/usr/src/linux-2.6/arch/x86/include/asm/thread_info.h" 1 movq %gs:kernel_stack,%rax #, pfo_ret__ # 0 "" 2 #NO_APP decl -8124(%rax) # <variable>.preempt_count movq -8136(%rax), %rax #, D.14625 testb $8, %al #, D.14625 jne .L32 #, .L31: movq -24(%rbp), %rbx #, movq -16(%rbp), %r12 #, movq -8(%rbp), %r13 #, leave ret .p2align 4,,10 .p2align 3 .L28: movl %r13d, (%r12) # count,* jmp .L29 # .L32: call preempt_schedule # .p2align 4,,6 jmp .L31 # .size __percpu_counter_add, .-__percpu_counter_add .p2align 4,,15 Signed-off-by: Nick Piggin <[email protected]>
2011-01-07vfs: revert per-cpu nr_unused counters for dentry and inodesNick Piggin2-21/+12
The nr_unused counters count the number of objects on an LRU, and as such they are synchronized with LRU object insertion and removal and scanning, and protected under the LRU lock. Making it per-cpu does not actually get any concurrency improvements because of this lock, and summing the counter is much slower, and incrementing/decrementing it costs more code size and is slower too. These counters should stay per-LRU, which currently means global. Signed-off-by: Nick Piggin <[email protected]>
2011-01-07kernel: kmem_ptr_validate considered harmfulNick Piggin5-99/+1
This is a nasty and error prone API. It is no longer used, remove it. Signed-off-by: Nick Piggin <[email protected]>
2011-01-07fs: d_validate fixesNick Piggin1-18/+7
d_validate has been broken for a long time. kmem_ptr_validate does not guarantee that a pointer can be dereferenced if it can go away at any time. Even rcu_read_lock doesn't help, because the pointer might be queued in RCU callbacks but not executed yet. So the parent cannot be checked, nor the name hashed. The dentry pointer can not be touched until it can be verified under lock. Hashing simply cannot be used. Instead, verify the parent/child relationship by traversing parent's d_child list. It's slow, but only ncpfs and the destaged smbfs care about it, at this point. Signed-off-by: Nick Piggin <[email protected]>

A recent patch has added a die notifier to the shdma driver, however, it registers a static die-notifier object in the probe routine, i.e., for each device instance. This is wrong and leads to a system lockup. This patch moves the die notifier registration to module init and exit routines respectively.

Fallback on the local-mac-address prom property if the Cassini device does not have an address programmed in the VPD ROM. This uses the same technique as implemented by the sungem driver. The problem was reported by Frans van Berckel using Debian kernel 2.6.34-7 on Sun Fire V440. udev was assigning a new eth<n> device name on each reboot because the cassini driver was using a random MAC address.

2011-01-06atyfb: Fix bootup hangs on sparc64.David S. Miller1-22/+5
After commit 25edd6946a1d74e5e77813c2324a0908c68bcf9e ("sparc64: Get rid of indirect p1275 PROM call buffer.") we can't pass virtual addresses >4GB to PROM calls. Largely this is never necessary in drivers because we have a copy of the entire PROM device tree in the kernel and a set of of_*() interfaces to access it. Unfortunately there were some lingering prom calls in the atyfb driver, in particular prom_finddevice() was being called with an on-stack address which could be anywhere. This code is actually probing for information we already have, the PROM choosen console output device is stored in of_console_device so all of this nasty code consolidates into a one-line comparison. Next we have some prom_getintdefault() calls which are trivially transformed into the equivalent of_getintprop_default(). Special thanks to Fabio, who figured out exactly where the bootup was hanging. That made this bug trivial to fix. Reported-by: Fabio M.
