* rcu: Document interpretation of RCU-lockdep splatsPaul E. McKenney2011-09-281-0/+110
| | | | | | | | There has been quite a bit of confusion about what RCU-lockdep splats mean, so this commit adds some documentation describing how to interpret them. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
* rcu: Update documentation for additional RCU lockdep functionsPaul E. McKenney2011-09-281-3/+21
| | | | | | | | Add documentation for rcu_dereference_bh_check(), rcu_dereference_sched_check(), srcu_dereference_check(), and rcu_dereference_index_check(). Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
* rcu: Not necessary to pass rcu_read_lock_held() to rcu_dereference_protected()Michal Hocko2011-09-281-6/+4
| | | | | | | | | | Since ca5ecddf (rcu: define __rcu address space modifier for sparse) rcu_dereference_check() use rcu_read_lock_held() as a part of condition automatically. Therefore, callers of rcu_dereference_check() no longer need to pass rcu_read_lock_held() to rcu_dereference_check(). Signed-off-by: Michal Hocko <mhocko@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Paul E.

* rcu: Simplify quiescent-state accountingPaul E. McKenney2011-09-281-17/+17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There is often a delay between the time that a CPU passes through a quiescent state and the time that this quiescent state is reported to the RCU core. It is quite possible that the grace period ended before the quiescent state could be reported, for example, some other CPU might have deduced that this CPU passed through dyntick-idle mode. It is critically important that quiescent state be counted only against the grace period that was in effect at the time that the quiescent state was detected. Previously, this was handled by recording the number of the last grace period to complete when passing through a quiescent state. The RCU core then checks this number against the current value, and rejects the quiescent state if there is a mismatch. However, one additional possibility must be accounted for, namely that the quiescent state was recorded after the prior grace period completed but before the current grace period started. In this case, the RCU core must reject the quiescent state, but the recorded number will match. This is handled when the CPU becomes aware of a new grace period -- at that point, it invalidates any prior quiescent state. This works, but is a bit indirect. The new approach records the current grace period, and the RCU core checks to see (1) that this is still the current grace period and (2) that this grace period has not yet ended. This approach simplifies reasoning about correctness, and this commit changes over to this new approach. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paul.mckenney@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Paul E.

* rcu: Fix RCU's NMI documentationPaul E. McKenney2011-09-281-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | It has long been the case that the architecture must call nmi_enter() and nmi_exit() rather than irq_enter() and irq_exit() in order to permit RCU read-side critical sections in NMIs.

| * hwmon: (coretemp) Don't use threshold registers for tempX_maxGuenter Roeck2011-09-211-7/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With commit c814a4c7c4aad795835583344353963a0a673eb0, the meaning of tempX_max was changed. It no longer returns the value of bits 8:15 of MSR_IA32_TEMPERATURE_TARGET, but instead returns the value of CPU threshold register T1. tempX_max_hyst was added to reflect the value of temperature threshold register T0. As it turns out, T0 and T1 are used on some systems, presumably by the BIOS. Also, T0 and T1 don't have a well defined meaning. The thresholds may be used as upper or lower limits, and it is not guaranteed that T0 <= T1. Thus, the new attribute mapping does not reflect the actual usage of the threshold registers. Also, register contents are changed during runtime by an entity other than the hwmon driver, meaning the values cached by the driver do not reflect actual register contents. Revert most of c814a4c7c4aad795835583344353963a0a673eb0 to address the problem. Support for T0 and T1 will be added back in with a separate commit, using new attribute names.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On old CPUs (and even some recent Atom CPUs) TjMax can't be read from the CPU registers, so it is guessed by the driver using a complex heuristic which isn't reliable.

The implementation of per-memcg reclaim statistics violates how memcg hierarchies usually behave: hierarchically. The reclaim statistics are accounted to child memcgs and the parent hitting the limit, but not to hierarchy levels in between. Usually, hierarchical statistics are perfectly recursive, with each level representing the sum of itself and all its children. Since this exports statistics to userspace, this may lead to confusion and problems with changing things after the release, so revert it now, we can try again later.

Recent ones is Christoph asking again why to idle on REQ_NOIDLE. His assertion is that XFS is relying more and more on workqueues and is concerned that CFQ idling on IO from every workqueue will impact XFS badly. So he suggested that I add some more documentation about CFQ idling and that can provide more clarity on the topic and also gives an opprotunity to poke a hole in theory and lead to improvements.
