* License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no licenseGreg Kroah-Hartman2017-11-021-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license. By default all files without license information are under the default license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2. Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0' SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. How this work was done: Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of the use cases: - file had no licensing information it it. - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it, - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information, Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords. The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files. The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s) to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was: - Files considered eligible had to be source code files. - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5 lines of source - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5 lines). All documentation files were explicitly excluded. The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license identifiers to apply. - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was considered to have no license information in it, and the top level COPYING file license applied. For non */uapi/* files that summary was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 11139 and resulted in the first patch in this series. If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930 and resulted in the second patch in this series. - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in it (per prior point). Results summary: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------ GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270 GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17 LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15 GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14 ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5 LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4 LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1 and that resulted in the third patch in this series. - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became the concluded license(s). - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a license but the other didn't, or they both detected different licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred. - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics). - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier, the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later in time. In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so they are related. Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks in about 15000 files. In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the correct identifier. Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch version early this week with: - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected license ids and scores - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+ files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the different types of files to be modified. These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to generate the patches.

* block: exit_io_context() should call elevator_exit_icq_fn()Tejun Heo2012-02-151-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | While updating locking, b2efa05265 "block, cfq: unlink cfq_io_context's immediately" moved elevator_exit_icq_fn() invocation from exit_io_context() to the final ioc put. While this doesn't cause catastrophic failure, it effectively removes task exit notification to elevator and cause noticeable IO performance degradation with CFQ. On task exit, CFQ used to immediately expire the slice if it was being used by the exiting task as no more IO would be issued by the task; however, after b2efa05265, the notification is lost and disk could sit idle needlessly, leading to noticeable IO performance degradation for certain workloads. This patch renames ioc_exit_icq() to ioc_destroy_icq(), separates elevator_exit_icq_fn() invocation into ioc_exit_icq() and invokes it from exit_io_context(). ICQ_EXITED flag is added to avoid invoking the callback more than once for the same icq. Walking icq_list from ioc side and invoking elevator callback requires reverse double locking. This may be better implemented using RCU; unfortunately, using RCU isn't trivial. e.g. RCU protection would need to cover request_queue and queue_lock switch on cleanup makes grabbing queue_lock from RCU unsafe. Reverse double locking should do, at least for now.

* block: strip out locking optimization in put_io_context()Tejun Heo2012-02-071-3/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | put_io_context() performed a complex trylock dancing to avoid deferring ioc release to workqueue. It was also broken on UP because trylock was always assumed to succeed which resulted in unbalanced preemption count. While there are ways to fix the UP breakage, even the most pathological microbench (forced ioc allocation and tight fork/exit loop) fails to show any appreciable performance benefit of the optimization. Strip it out. If there turns out to be workloads which are affected by this change, simpler optimization from the discussion thread can be applied later.

* block, cfq: move icq creation and rq->elv.icq association to block coreTejun Heo2011-12-141-0/+59
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Now block layer knows everything necessary to create and associate icq's with requests. Move ioc_create_icq() to blk-ioc.c and update get_request() such that, if elevator_type->icq_size is set, requests are automatically associated with their matching icq's before elv_set_request(). io_context reference is also managed by block core on request alloc/free. * Only ioprio/cgroup changed handling remains from cfq_get_cic(). Collapsed into cfq_set_request(). * This removes queue kicking on icq allocation failure (for now). As icq allocation failure is rare and the only effect of queue kicking achieved was possibily accelerating queue processing, this change shouldn't be noticeable. There is a larger underlying problem. Unlike request allocation, icq allocation is not guaranteed to succeed eventually after retries. The number of icq is unbound and thus mempool can't be the solution either. This effectively adds allocation dependency on memory free path and thus possibility of deadlock. This usually wouldn't happen because icq allocation is not a hot path and, even when the condition triggers, it's highly unlikely that none of the writeback workers already has icq. However, this is still possible especially if elevator is being switched under high memory pressure, so we better get it fixed. Probably the only solution is just bypassing elevator and appending to dispatch queue on any elevator allocation failure. * Comment added to explain how icq's are managed and synchronized. This completes cleanup of io_context interface. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>
* block, cfq: move io_cq exit/release to blk-ioc.cTejun Heo2011-12-141-6/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With kmem_cache managed by blk-ioc, io_cq exit/release can be moved to blk-ioc too. The odd ->io_cq->exit/release() callbacks are replaced with elevator_ops->elevator_exit_icq_fn() with unlinking from both ioc and q, and freeing automatically handled by blk-ioc. The elevator operation only need to perform exit operation specific to the elevator - in cfq's case, exiting the cfqq's. Also, clearing of io_cq's on q detach is moved to block core and automatically performed on elevator switch and q release. Because the q io_cq points to might be freed before RCU callback for the io_cq runs, blk-ioc code should remember to which cache the io_cq needs to be freed when the io_cq is released. New field io_cq->__rcu_icq_cache is added for this purpose. As both the new field and rcu_head are used only after io_cq is released and the q/ioc_node fields aren't, they are put into unions.

* block, cfq: reorganize cfq_io_context into generic and cfq specific partsTejun Heo2011-12-141-29/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently io_context and cfq logics are mixed without clear boundary. Most of io_context is independent from cfq but cfq_io_context handling logic is dispersed between generic ioc code and cfq. cfq_io_context represents association between an io_context and a request_queue, which is a concept useful outside of cfq, but it also contains fields which are useful only to cfq. This patch takes out generic part and put it into io_cq (io context-queue) and the rest into cfq_io_cq (cic moniker remains the same) which contains io_cq. The following changes are made together. * cfq_ttime and cfq_io_cq now live in cfq-iosched.c. * All related fields, functions and constants are renamed accordingly. * ioc->ioc_data is now "struct io_cq *" instead of "void *" and renamed to icq_hint. This prepares for io_context API cleanup. Documentation is currently sparse. It will be added later. Changes in this patch are mechanical and don't cause functional change.

A cic is linked from both ioc and q and should be destroyed when either one goes away. As ioc and q both have their own locks, locking becomes a bit complex - both orders work for removal from one but not from the other. Currently, cfq tries to circumvent this locking order issue with RCU. ioc->lock nests inside queue_lock but the radix tree and cic's are also protected by RCU allowing either side to walk their lists without grabbing lock. This rather unconventional use of RCU quickly devolves into extremely fragile convolution. e.g. The following is from cfqd going away too soon after ioc and q exits raced. general protection fault: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP CPU 2 Modules linked in: [ 88.503444] Pid: 599, comm: hexdump Not tainted 3.1.0-rc10-work+ #158 Bochs Bochs RIP: 0010:[<ffffffff81397628>] [<ffffffff81397628>] cfq_exit_single_io_context+0x58/0xf0 ...

This patch makes cic removal from both ioc and request_queue perform double-locking and unlink immediately. * From q side, the change is almost trivial as ioc->lock nests inside queue_lock. It just needs to grab each ioc->lock as it walks cic_list and unlink it. * From ioc side, it's a bit more difficult because of inversed lock order. ioc needs its lock to walk its cic_list but can't grab the matching queue_lock and needs to perform unlock-relock dancing. Unlinking is now wholly done from put_io_context() and fast path is optimized by using the queue_lock the caller already holds, which is by far the most common case. If the ioc accessed multiple devices, it tries with trylock. In unlikely cases of fast path failure, it falls back to full double-locking dance from workqueue. Double-locking isn't the prettiest thing in the world but it's *far* simpler and more understandable than RCU trick without adding any meaningful overhead. This still leaves a lot of now unnecessary RCU logics. Future patches will trim them. -v2: Vivek pointed out that cic->q was being dereferenced after cic->release() was called.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ioprio/cgroup change was handled by marking the changed state in ioc and, on the following access to the ioc, performing RCU-protected iteration through all cic's grabbing the matching queue_lock. This patch moves the changed state to each cic. When ioprio or cgroup changes, the respective bit is set on all cic's of the ioc and when each of those cic (not ioc) is accessed, change is applied for that specific ioc-queue pair. This also fixes the following two race conditions between setting and clearing of changed states. * Missing barrier between assign/load of ioprio and ioprio_changed allowed applying old ioprio. * Change requests could happen between application of change and clearing of changed variables.

The former is always called from local task while the latter can be called from different task. The synchornization between them are peculiar and dubious. * current_io_context() doesn't grab task_lock() and assumes that if it saw %NULL ->io_context, it would stay that way until allocation and assignment is complete. It has smp_wmb() between alloc/init and assignment. * set_task_ioprio() grabs task_lock() for assignment and does smp_read_barrier_depends() between "ioc = task->io_context" and "if (ioc)". Unfortunately, this doesn't achieve anything - the latter is not a dependent load of the former. ie, if ioc itself were being dereferenced "ioc->xxx", it would mean something (not sure what tho) but as the code currently stands, the dependent read barrier is noop. As only one of the the two test-assignment sequences is task_lock() protected, the task_lock() can't do much about race between the two. Nothing prevents current_io_context() and set_task_ioprio() allocating its own ioc for the same task and overwriting the other's. Also, set_task_ioprio() can race with exiting task and create a new ioc after exit_io_context() is finished. ioc get/put doesn't have any reason to be complex. The only hot path is accessing the existing ioc of %current, which is simple to achieve given that ->io_context is never destroyed as long as the task is alive. All other paths can happily go through task_lock() like all other task sub structures without impacting anything. This patch updates ioc get/put so that it becomes more conventional. * alloc_io_context() is replaced with get_task_io_context(). This is the only interface which can acquire access to ioc of another task. On return, the caller has an explicit reference to the object which should be put using put_io_context() afterwards. * The functionality of current_io_context() remains the same but when creating a new ioc, it shares the code path with get_task_io_context() and always goes through task_lock(). * get_io_context() now means incrementing ref on an ioc which the caller already has access to (be that an explicit refcnt or implicit %current one). * PF_EXITING inhibits creation of new io_context and once exit_io_context() is finished, it's guaranteed that both ioc acquisition functions return %NULL. * All users are updated. Most are trivial but smp_read_barrier_depends() removal from cfq_get_io_context() needs a bit of explanation. I suppose the original intention was to ensure ioc->ioprio is visible when set_task_ioprio() allocates new io_context and installs it; however, this wouldn't have worked because set_task_ioprio() doesn't have wmb between init and install. There are other problems with this which will be fixed in another patch. * While at it, use NUMA_NO_NODE instead of -1 for wildcard node specification. -v2: Vivek spotted contamination from debug patch.

* block: Fix io_context leak after failure of clone with CLONE_IOLouis Rilling2009-12-041-2/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | With CLONE_IO, parent's io_context->nr_tasks is incremented, but never decremented whenever copy_process() fails afterwards, which prevents exit_io_context() from calling IO schedulers exit functions. Give a task_struct to exit_io_context(), and call exit_io_context() instead of put_io_context() in copy_process() cleanup path.

* cfq: calculate the seek_mean per cfq_queue not per cfq_io_contextJeff Moyer2009-10-261-5/+0
| | | | | | | | | | async cfq_queue's are already shared between processes within the same priority, and forthcoming patches will change the mapping of cic to sync cfq_queue from 1:1 to 1:N. So, calculate the seekiness of a process based on the cfq_queue instead of the cfq_io_context. Signed-off-by: Jeff Moyer <jmoyer@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>

* block: prevent possible io_context->refcount overflowNikanth Karthikesan2009-06-101-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently io_context has an atomic_t(32-bit) as refcount. In the case of cfq, for each device against whcih a task does I/O, a reference to the io_context would be taken. And when there are multiple process sharing io_contexts(CLONE_IO) would also have a reference to the same io_context. Theoretically the possible maximum number of processes sharing the same io_context + the number of disks/cfq_data referring to the same io_context can overflow the 32-bit counter on a very high-end machine. Even though it is an improbable case, let us make it atomic_long_t.

* cfq-iosched: add hlist for browsing parallel to the radix treeJens Axboe2008-02-191-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | It's cumbersome to browse a radix tree from start to finish, especially since we modify keys when a process exits. So add a hlist for the single purpose of browsing over all known cfq_io_contexts, used for exit, io prio change, etc. This fixes http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9948 Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>
* block: cfq: make the io contect sharing locklessJens Axboe2008-01-281-2/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The io context sharing introduced a per-ioc spinlock, that would protect the cfq io context lookup. That is a regression from the original, since we never needed any locking there because the ioc/cic were process private. The cic lookup is changed from an rbtree construct to a radix tree, which we can then use RCU to make the reader side lockless. That is the performance critical path, modifying the radix tree is only done on process creation (when that process first does IO, actually) and on process exit (if that process has done IO). As it so happens, radix trees are also much faster for this type of lookup where the key is a pointer. It's a very sparse tree. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>
