* torture: Increase stutter-end intensityPaul E. McKenney2014-05-141-2/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, all stuttered kthreads block a jiffy at a time, which can result in them starting at different times. (Note: This is not an energy-efficiency problem unless you run torture tests in production, in which case you have other problems!) This commit increases the intensity of the restart event by causing kthreads to spin through the last jiffy, restarting when they see the variable change. Signed-off-by: Paul E.

* torture: Report diagnostics from qemuPaul E. McKenney2014-05-141-1/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | The current script does record qemu diagnostics, but the user has to know where to look for them. This commit therefore puts them into the Warnings file so that kvm-recheck.sh will display them. This change is especially useful if you are in the habit of killing the qemu process when you realize that you messed something up, but then later on wonder why the process terminated early.

* torture: Make "--dryrun script" use same environment as normal runPaul E. McKenney2014-05-141-15/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In a normal torture-test run, the script inherits its environment variables, but this does not work when producing a script that is to run later. Therefore, definitions and exports are prepended to a dryrun script but not to a script that is run immediately. This commit reconciles this by placing definitions and exports at the beginning of the script in both cases. Signed-off-by: Paul E.

| | | | | | | | | | | | The torture tests need to set specific values for their respective Kconfig options (e.g., CONFIG_LOCK_TORTURE_TEST), and must therefore filter any conflicting definitions from the Kconfig fragment file.

This means that code can use them interchangably, which gets horribly confusing like with this nugget from slab.c: > list_del(&page->lru); > if (page->active == cachep->num) > list_add(&page->list, &n->slabs_full); This patch makes the slab and slub code use page->lru universally instead of mixing ->list and ->lru. So, the new rule is: page->lru is what the you use if you want to keep your page on a list. Don't like the fact that it's not called ->list? Too bad.

It is wrong usage of builtin function, but it is compiled on x86 without any problem, so I can't find it before 0 day build system find it. This commit fixes the situation by using KMALLOC_MIN_SIZE, instead of KMALLOC_SHIFT_LOW. KMALLOC_SHIFT_LOW is parsed to ilog2() on some architecture and this ilog2() uses __builtin_constant_p() and results in the problem. This problem would disappear by using KMALLOC_MIN_SIZE, since it is just constant.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Now, the size of the freelist for the slab management diminish, so that the on-slab management structure can waste large space if the object of the slab is large. Consider a 128 byte sized slab. If on-slab is used, 31 objects can be in the slab. The size of the freelist for this case would be 31 bytes so that 97 bytes, that is, more than 75% of object size, are wasted. In a 64 byte sized slab case, no space is wasted if we use on-slab. So set off-slab determining constraint to 128 bytes.

| * slab: introduce byte sized index for the freelist of a slabJoonsoo Kim2014-02-081-9/+9

Since most of slabs have less number of objects than 256, large sized indexes is needless. For example, consider the minimum kmalloc slab. It's object size is 32 byte and it would consist of one page, so 256 indexes through byte sized index are enough to contain all possible indexes. There can be some slabs whose object size is 8 byte. We cannot handle this case with byte sized index, so we need to restrict minimum object size. Since these slabs are not major, wasted memory from these slabs would be negligible. Some architectures' page size isn't 4096 bytes and rather larger than 4096 bytes (One example is 64KB page size on PPC or IA64) so that byte sized index doesn't fit to them. In this case, we will use two bytes sized index.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | To prepare to implement byte sized index for managing the freelist of a slab, we should restrict the number of objects in a slab to be less or equal to 256, since byte only represent 256 different values. Setting the size of object to value equal or more than newly introduced SLAB_OBJ_MIN_SIZE ensures that the number of objects in a slab is less or equal to 256 for a slab with 1 page. If page size is rather larger than 4096, above assumption would be wrong. In this case, we would fall back on 2 bytes sized index. If minimum size of kmalloc is less than 16, we use it as minimum object size and give up this optimization.

For example, when removing checkpatch warnings and errors from new drivers in the staging tree. objdiff can be used in conjunction with a git rebase to confirm that each commit made no changes to the resulting object code. It has the same return values as diff(1). This was written specifically to support adding the skein and threefish cryto drivers to the staging tree. I needed a programmatic way to confirm that commits changing >90% of the lines didn't inadvertently change the code. Temporary files (objdump output) are stored in /path/to/linux/.tmp_objdiff 'make mrproper' will remove this directory.

* | sym53c8xx_2: Set DID_REQUEUE return code when aborting squeueMikulas Patocka2014-04-121-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch fixes I/O errors with the sym53c8xx_2 driver when the disk returns QUEUE FULL status. When the controller encounters an error (including QUEUE FULL or BUSY status), it aborts all not yet submitted requests in the function sym_dequeue_from_squeue. This function aborts them with DID_SOFT_ERROR. If the disk has full tag queue, the request that caused the overflow is aborted with QUEUE FULL status (and the scsi midlayer properly retries it until it is accepted by the disk), but the sym53c8xx_2 driver aborts the following requests with DID_SOFT_ERROR --- for them, the midlayer does just a few retries and then signals the error up to sd. The result is that disk returning QUEUE FULL causes request failures. The error was reproduced on 53c895 with COMPAQ BD03685A24 disk (rebranded ST336607LC) with command queue 48 or 64 tags. The disk has 64 tags, but under some access patterns it return QUEUE FULL when there are less than 64 pending tags. The SCSI specification allows returning QUEUE FULL anytime and it is up to the host to retry.

* | powerpc: Don't try to set LPCR unless we're in hypervisor modePaul Mackerras2014-04-121-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 8f619b5429d9 ("powerpc/ppc64: Do not turn AIL (reloc-on interrupts) too early") added code to set the AIL bit in the LPCR without checking whether the kernel is running in hypervisor mode. The result is that when the kernel is running as a guest (i.e., under PowerKVM or PowerVM), the processor takes a privileged instruction interrupt at that point, causing a panic. The visible result is that the kernel hangs after printing "returning from prom_init". This fixes it by checking for hypervisor mode being available before setting LPCR. If we are not in hypervisor mode, we enable relocation-on interrupts later in pSeries_setup_arch using the H_SET_MODE hcall.

One was a late fix and the other a consequence of overlooking the whole requeuing logic. The first change caused our documentation to be incorrect, and the second made us aware that we need to explicitly add more details to it.

From Florian Westphal. 4) If VLAN untagging fails, we double free the SKB in the bridging output path. From Toshiaki Makita. 5) Several call sites of sk->sk_data_ready() were referencing an SKB just added to the socket receive queue in order to calculate the second argument via skb->len. This is dangerous because the moment the skb is added to the receive queue it can be consumed in another context and freed up. It turns out also that none of the sk->sk_data_ready() implementations even care about this second argument. So just kill it off and thus fix all these use-after-free bugs as a side effect. 6) Fix inverted test in tcp_v6_send_response(), from Lorenzo Colitti. 7) pktgen needs to do locking properly for LLTX devices, from Daniel Borkmann. 8) xen-netfront driver initializes TX array entries in RX loop :-) From Vincenzo Maffione. 9) After refactoring, some tunnel drivers allow a tunnel to be configured on top itself.
