2011-08-03shm: optimize exit_shm()Vasiliy Kulikov1-0/+3
We may optimistically check .in_use == 0 without holding the rw_mutex: it's the common case, and if it's zero, there certainly won't be any segments associated with us. After taking the lock, the idr_for_each() will do the right thing, so we could now drop the re-check inside the lock without any real cost. But it won't hurt.

2011-08-03mm: clarify the radix_tree exceptional casesHugh Dickins3-26/+53
Make the radix_tree exceptional cases, mostly in filemap.c, clearer. It's hard to devise a suitable snappy name that illuminates the use by shmem/tmpfs for swap, while keeping filemap/pagecache/radix_tree generality. And akpm points out that /* radix_tree_deref_retry(page) */ comments look like calls that have been commented out for unknown reason. Skirt the naming difficulty by rearranging these blocks to handle the transient radix_tree_deref_retry(page) case first; then just explain the remaining shmem/tmpfs swap case in a comment.

2011-08-03tmpfs radix_tree: locate_item to speed up swapoffHugh Dickins3-37/+94
We have already acknowledged that swapoff of a tmpfs file is slower than it was before conversion to the generic radix_tree: a little slower there will be acceptable, if the hotter paths are faster. But it was a shock to find swapoff of a 500MB file 20 times slower on my laptop, taking 10 minutes; and at that rate it significantly slows down my testing. Now, most of that turned out to be overhead from PROVE_LOCKING and PROVE_RCU: without those it was only 4 times slower than before; and more realistic tests on other machines don't fare as badly. I've tried a number of things to improve it, including tagging the swap entries, then doing lookup by tag: I'd expected that to halve the time, but in practice it's erratic, and often counter-productive. The only change I've so far found to make a consistent improvement, is to short-circuit the way we go back and forth, gang lookup packing entries into the array supplied, then shmem scanning that array for the target entry. Scanning in place doubles the speed, so it's now only twice as slow as before (or three times slower when the PROVEs are on). So, add radix_tree_locate_item() as an expedient, once-off, single-caller hack to do the lookup directly in place. #ifdef it on CONFIG_SHMEM and CONFIG_SWAP, as much to document its limited applicability as save space in other configurations. And, sadly, #include sched.h for cond_resched(). Signed-off-by: Hugh Dickins <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <[email protected]>

Remove PageSwapBacked (!page_is_file_cache) cases from add_to_page_cache_locked() and add_to_page_cache_lru(): those pages now go through shmem_add_to_page_cache(). Remove a comment on maximum tmpfs size from fsstack_copy_inode_size(), and add a comment on swap entries to invalidate_mapping_pages(). And mincore_page() uses find_get_page() on what might be shmem or a tmpfs file: allow for a radix_tree_exceptional_entry(), and proceed to find_get_page() on swapper_space if so (oh, swapper_space needs #ifdef).

2011-08-03tmpfs: use kmemdup for short symlinksHugh Dickins2-21/+21
But we've not yet removed the old swp_entry_t i_direct[16] from shmem_inode_info. That's because it was still being shared with the inline symlink. Remove it now (saving 64 or 128 bytes from shmem inode size), and use kmemdup() for short symlinks, say, those up to 128 bytes. I wonder why mpol_free_shared_policy() is done in shmem_destroy_inode() rather than shmem_evict_inode(), where we usually do such freeing? I guess it doesn't matter, and I'm not into NUMA mpol testing right now.

2011-08-03tmpfs: convert shmem_writepage and enable swapHugh Dickins1-51/+37
Convert shmem_writepage() to use shmem_delete_from_page_cache() to use shmem_radix_tree_replace() to substitute swap entry for page pointer atomically in the radix tree. As with shmem_add_to_page_cache(), it's not entirely satisfactory to be copying such code from delete_from_swap_cache, but again judged easier to sell than making its other callers go through the extras. Remove the toy implementation's shmem_put_swap() and shmem_get_swap(), now unreferenced, and the hack to disable swap: it's now good to go. The way things have worked out, info->lock no longer helps to guard the shmem_swaplist: we increment swapped under shmem_swaplist_mutex only. That global mutex exclusion between shmem_writepage() and shmem_unuse() is not pretty, and we ought to find another way; but it's been forced on us by recent race discoveries, not a consequence of this patchset. And what has become of the WARN_ON_ONCE(1) free_swap_and_cache() if a swap entry was found already present? That's no longer possible, the (unknown) one inserting this page into filecache would hit the swap entry occupying that slot.

2011-08-03tmpfs: convert mem_cgroup shmem to radix-swapHugh Dickins4-139/+20
Remove mem_cgroup_shmem_charge_fallback(): it was only required when we had to move swappage to filecache with GFP_NOWAIT. Remove the GFP_NOWAIT special case from mem_cgroup_cache_charge(), by moving its call out from shmem_add_to_page_cache() to two of thats three callers. But leave it doing mem_cgroup_uncharge_cache_page() on error: although asymmetrical, it's easier for all 3 callers to handle. These two changes would also be appropriate if anyone were to start using shmem_read_mapping_page_gfp() with GFP_NOWAIT. Remove mem_cgroup_get_shmem_target(): mc_handle_file_pte() can test radix_tree_exceptional_entry() to get what it needs for itself.

2011-08-03tmpfs: convert shmem_getpage_gfp to radix-swapHugh Dickins1-147/+112
Convert shmem_getpage_gfp(), the engine-room of shmem, to expect page or swap entry returned from radix tree by find_lock_page(). Whereas the repetitive old method proceeded mainly under info->lock, dropping and repeating whenever one of the conditions needed was not met, now we can proceed without it, leaving shmem_add_to_page_cache() to check for a race. This way there is no need to preallocate a page, no need for an early radix_tree_preload(), no need for mem_cgroup_shmem_charge_fallback(). Move the error unwinding down to the bottom instead of repeating it throughout. ENOSPC handling is a little different from before: there is no longer any race between find_lock_page() and finding swap, but we can arrive at ENOSPC before calling shmem_recalc_inode(), which might occasionally discover freed space. Be stricter to check i_size before returning. info->lock is used for little but alloced, swapped, i_blocks updates. Move i_blocks updates out from under the max_blocks check, so even an unlimited size=0 mount can show accurate du.

2011-08-03tmpfs: convert shmem_unuse_inode to radix-swapHugh Dickins1-26/+107
Convert shmem_unuse_inode() to use a lockless gang lookup of the radix tree, searching for matching swap. This is somewhat slower than the old method: because of repeated radix tree descents, because of copying entries up, but probably most because the old method noted and skipped once a vector page was cleared of swap. Perhaps we can devise a use of radix tree tagging to achieve that later. shmem_add_to_page_cache() uses shmem_radix_tree_replace() to compensate for the lockless lookup by checking that the expected entry is in place, under lock. It is not very satisfactory to be copying this much from add_to_page_cache_locked(), but I think easier to sell than insisting that every caller of add_to_page_cache*() go through the extras.

2011-08-03tmpfs: convert shmem_truncate_range to radix-swapHugh Dickins1-46/+146
Disable the toy swapping implementation in shmem_writepage() - it's hard to support two schemes at once - and convert shmem_truncate_range() to a lockless gang lookup of swap entries along with pages, freeing both. Since the second loop tightens its noose until all entries of either kind have been squeezed out (and we shall make sure that there's not an instant when neither is visible), there is no longer a need for yet another pass below. shmem_radix_tree_replace() compensates for the lockless lookup by checking that the expected entry is in place, under lock, before replacing it. Here it just deletes, but will be used in later patches to substitute swap entry for page or page for swap entry.

2011-08-03tmpfs: demolish old swap vector supportHugh Dickins2-700/+84
The maximum size of a shmem/tmpfs file has been limited by the maximum size of its triple-indirect swap vector. With 4kB page size, maximum filesize was just over 2TB on a 32-bit kernel, but sadly one eighth of that on a 64-bit kernel. (With 8kB page size, maximum filesize was just over 4TB on a 64-bit kernel, but 16TB on a 32-bit kernel, MAX_LFS_FILESIZE being then more restrictive than swap vector layout.) It's a shame that tmpfs should be more restrictive than ramfs, and this limitation has now been noticed. Add another level to the swap vector? No, it became obscure and hard to maintain, once I complicated it to make use of highmem pages nine years ago: better choose another way. Surely, if 2.4 had had the radix tree pagecache introduced in 2.5, then tmpfs would never have invented its own peculiar radix tree: we would have fitted swap entries into the common radix tree instead, in much the same way as we fit swap entries into page tables. And why should each file have a separate radix tree for its pages and for its swap entries? The swap entries are required precisely where and when the pages are not. We want to put them together in a single radix tree: which can then avoid much of the locking which was needed to prevent them from being exchanged underneath us. This also avoids the waste of memory devoted to swap vectors, first in the shmem_inode itself, then at least two more pages once a file grew beyond 16 data pages (pages accounted by df and du, but not by memcg). Allocated upfront, to avoid allocation when under swapping pressure, but pure waste when CONFIG_SWAP is not set - I have never spattered around the ifdefs to prevent that, preferring this move to sharing the common radix tree instead. There are three downsides to sharing the radix tree. One, that it binds tmpfs more tightly to the rest of mm, either requiring knowledge of swap entries in radix tree there, or duplication of its code here in shmem.c. I believe that the simplications and memory savings (and probable higher performance, not yet measured) justify that. Two, that on HIGHMEM systems with SWAP enabled, it's the lowmem radix nodes that cannot be freed under memory pressure - whereas before it was the less precious highmem swap vector pages that could not be freed. I'm hoping that 64-bit has now been accessible for long enough, that the highmem argument has grown much less persuasive. Three, that swapoff is slower than it used to be on tmpfs files, since it's using a simple generic mechanism not tailored to it: I find this noticeable, and shall want to improve, but maybe nobody else will notice. So... now remove most of the old swap vector code from shmem.c. But, for the moment, keep the simple i_direct vector of 16 pages, with simple accessors shmem_put_swap() and shmem_get_swap(), as a toy implementation to help mark where swap needs to be handled in subsequent patches.

2011-08-03mm: let swap use exceptional entriesHugh Dickins3-26/+66
If swap entries are to be stored along with struct page pointers in a radix tree, they need to be distinguished as exceptional entries. Most of the handling of swap entries in radix tree will be contained in shmem.c, but a few functions in filemap.c's common code need to check for their appearance: find_get_page(), find_lock_page(), find_get_pages() and find_get_pages_contig(). So as not to slow their fast paths, tuck those checks inside the existing checks for unlikely radix_tree_deref_slot(); except for find_lock_page(), where it is an added test. And make it a BUG in find_get_pages_tag(), which is not applied to tmpfs files. A part of the reason for eliminating shmem_readpage() earlier, was to minimize the places where common code would need to allow for swap entries. The swp_entry_t known to swapfile.c must be massaged into a slightly different form when stored in the radix tree, just as it gets massaged into a pte_t when stored in page tables. In an i386 kernel this limits its information (type and page offset) to 30 bits: given 32 "types" of swapfile and 4kB pagesize, that's a maximum swapfile size of 128GB. Which is less than the 512GB we previously allowed with X86_PAE (where the swap entry can occupy the entire upper 32 bits of a pte_t), but not a new limitation on 32-bit without PAE; and there's not a new limitation on 64-bit (where swap filesize is already limited to 16TB by a 32-bit page offset). Thirty areas of 128GB is probably still enough swap for a 64GB 32-bit machine. Provide swp_to_radix_entry() and radix_to_swp_entry() conversions, and enforce filesize limit in read_swap_header(), just as for ptes.

2011-08-03radix_tree: exceptional entries and indicesHugh Dickins3-15/+54
A patchset to extend tmpfs to MAX_LFS_FILESIZE by abandoning its peculiar swap vector, instead keeping a file's swap entries in the same radix tree as its struct page pointers: thus saving memory, and simplifying its code and locking. This patch: The radix_tree is used by several subsystems for different purposes. A major use is to store the struct page pointers of a file's pagecache for memory management. But what if mm wanted to store something other than page pointers there too? The low bit of a radix_tree entry is already used to denote an indirect pointer, for internal use, and the unlikely radix_tree_deref_retry() case. Define the next bit as denoting an exceptional entry, and supply inline functions radix_tree_exception() to return non-0 in either unlikely case, and radix_tree_exceptional_entry() to return non-0 in the second case. If a subsystem already uses radix_tree with that bit set, no problem: it does not affect internal workings at all, but is defined for the convenience of those storing well-aligned pointers in the radix_tree. The radix_tree_gang_lookups have an implicit assumption that the caller can deduce the offset of each entry returned e.g. by the page->index of a struct page. But that may not be feasible for some kinds of item to be stored there. radix_tree_gang_lookup_slot() allow for an optional indices argument, output array in which to return those offsets. The same could be added to other radix_tree_gang_lookups, but for now keep it to the only one for which we need it.

The current hyper-optimized functions are overkill if you simply want to allocate an id for a device. Create versions which use an internal lock. In followup patches, numerous drivers are converted to use this interface. Thanks to Tejun for feedback.

2011-08-03taskstats: add_del_listener() should ignore !valid listenersOleg Nesterov1-1/+1
When send_cpu_listeners() finds the orphaned listener it marks it as !valid and drops listeners->sem. Before it takes this sem for writing, s->pid can be reused and add_del_listener() can wrongly try to re-use this entry. Change add_del_listener() to check ->valid = T.

2011-08-03taskstats: add_del_listener() shouldn't use the wrong nodeOleg Nesterov1-9/+7
1. Commit 26c4caea9d69 "don't allow duplicate entries in listener mode" changed add_del_listener(REGISTER) so that "next_cpu:" can reuse the listener allocated for the previous cpu, this doesn't look exactly right even if minor. Change the code to kfree() in the already-registered case, this case is unlikely anyway so the extra kmalloc_node() shouldn't hurt but looke more correct and clean. 2. use the plain list_for_each_entry() instead of _safe() to scan listeners->list. 3. Remove the unneeded INIT_LIST_HEAD(&s->list), we are going to list_add(&s->list).

2011-08-03rtc-omap: fix initialization of control registerDaniel Glöckner1-1/+1
As the comment explains, the intention of the code is to clear the OMAP_RTC_CTRL_MODE_12_24 bit, but instead it only clears the OMAP_RTC_CTRL_SPLIT and OMAP_RTC_CTRL_AUTO_COMP bits, which should be kept. OMAP_RTC_CTRL_DISABLE, OMAP_RTC_CTRL_SET_32_COUNTER, OMAP_RTC_CTRL_TEST, and OMAP_RTC_CTRL_ROUND_30S are also better off being cleared.

2011-08-03fault-injection: add ability to export fault_attr in arbitrary directoryAkinobu Mita7-46/+33
init_fault_attr_dentries() is used to export fault_attr via debugfs. But it can only export it in debugfs root directory. Per Forlin is working on mmc_fail_request which adds support to inject data errors after a completed host transfer in MMC subsystem. The fault_attr for mmc_fail_request should be defined per mmc host and export it in debugfs directory per mmc host like /sys/kernel/debug/mmc0/mmc_fail_request. init_fault_attr_dentries() doesn't help for mmc_fail_request. So this introduces fault_create_debugfs_attr() which is able to create a directory in the arbitrary directory and replace init_fault_attr_dentries().

2011-08-03cpuidle: replace xen access to x86 pm_idle and default_idleLen Brown3-1/+8
When a Xen Dom0 kernel boots on a hypervisor, it gets access to the raw-hardware ACPI tables. While it parses the idle tables for the hypervisor's beneift, it uses HLT for its own idle. Rather than have xen scribble on pm_idle and access default_idle, have it simply disable_cpuidle() so acpi_idle will not load and architecture default HLT will be used. cc: [email protected] Tested-by: Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk <[email protected]> Acked-by: H.

2011-08-03mrst_pmu: driver for Intel Moorestown Power Management UnitLen Brown4-0/+1058
The Moorestown (MRST) Power Management Unit (PMU) driver directs the SOC power states in the "Langwell" south complex (SCU). It hooks pci_platform_pm_ops[] and thus observes all PCI ".set_state" requests. For devices in the SC, the pmu driver translates those PCI requests into the appropriate commands for the SCU. The PMU driver helps implement S0i3, a deep system idle power idle state. Entry into S0i3 is via cpuidle, just like regular processor c-states. S0i3 depends on pre-conditions including uni-processor, graphics off, and certain IO devices in the SC must be off. If those pre-conditions are met, then the PMU allows cpuidle to enter S0i3, otherwise such requests are demoted, either to Atom C4 or Atom C6. This driver is based on prototype work by Bruce Flemming, Illyas Mansoor, Rajeev D. Muralidhar, Vishwesh M. Rudramuni, Hari Seshadri and Sujith Thomas. The current driver also includes contributions from H. Peter Anvin, Arjan van de Ven, Kristen Accardi, and Yong Wang. Thanks for additional review feedback from Alan Cox and Randy Dunlap.
