* kobject: show debug info on delayed kobject releaseFengguang Wu2013-10-101-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Useful for locating buggy drivers on kernel oops. It may add dozens of new lines to boot dmesg. DEBUG_KOBJECT_RELEASE is hopefully only enabled in debug kernels (like maybe the Fedora rawhide one, or at developers), so being a bit more verbose is likely ok.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Make use of arch_mutex_cpu_relax() so architectures can override the default cpu_relax() semantics. This is especially useful for s390, where cpu_relax() means that we yield() the current (virtual) cpu and therefore is very expensive, and would contradict the whole purpose of the lockless cmpxchg loop.

* | lockref: allow relaxed cmpxchg64 variant for lockless updatesWill Deacon2013-09-271-2/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The 64-bit cmpxchg operation on the lockref is ordered by virtue of hazarding between the cmpxchg operation and the reference count manipulation. On weakly ordered memory architectures (such as ARM), it can be of great benefit to omit the barrier instructions where they are not needed. This patch moves the lockless lockref code over to a cmpxchg64_relaxed operation, which doesn't provide barrier semantics. If the operation isn't defined, we simply #define it as the usual 64-bit cmpxchg macro.

* | lockref: use cmpxchg64 explicitly for lockless updatesWill Deacon2013-09-201-2/+2
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The cmpxchg() function tends not to support 64-bit arguments on 32-bit architectures. This could be either due to use of unsigned long arguments (like on ARM) or lack of instruction support (cmpxchgq on x86). However, these architectures may implement a specific cmpxchg64() function to provide 64-bit cmpxchg support instead. Since the lockref code requires a 64-bit cmpxchg and relies on the architecture selecting ARCH_USE_CMPXCHG_LOCKREF, move to using cmpxchg64 instead of cmpxchg and allow 32-bit architectures to make use of the lockless lockref implementation.

With percpu allocation (that works), it's impossible to guarantee it will always be possible to allocate all nr_tags - typically, some will be stuck on a remote percpu freelist where the current job can't get to them. We do guarantee that it will always be possible to allocate at least (nr_tags / 2) tags - this is done by keeping track of which and how many cpus have tags on their percpu freelists. On allocation failure if enough cpus have tags that there could potentially be (nr_tags / 2) tags stuck on remote percpu freelists, we then pick a remote cpu at random to steal from. Note that there's no cpu hotplug notifier - we don't care, because steal_tags() will eventually get the down cpu's tags. We _could_ satisfy more allocations if we had a notifier - but we'll still meet our guarantees and it's absolutely not a correctness issue, so I don't think it's worth the extra code.

* | | lib/radix-tree.c: make radix_tree_node_alloc() work correctly within interruptJan Kara2013-09-111-2/+39
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With users of radix_tree_preload() run from interrupt (block/blk-ioc.c is one such possible user), the following race can happen: radix_tree_preload() ... radix_tree_insert() radix_tree_node_alloc() if (rtp->nr) { ret = rtp->nodes[rtp->nr - 1]; <interrupt> ... radix_tree_preload() ... radix_tree_insert() radix_tree_node_alloc() if (rtp->nr) { ret = rtp->nodes[rtp->nr - 1]; And we give out one radix tree node twice. That clearly results in radix tree corruption with different results (usually OOPS) depending on which two users of radix tree race. We fix the problem by making radix_tree_node_alloc() always allocate fresh radix tree nodes when in interrupt. Using preloading when in interrupt doesn't make sense since all the allocations have to be atomic anyway and we cannot steal nodes from process-context users because some users rely on radix_tree_insert() succeeding after radix_tree_preload(). in_interrupt() check is somewhat ugly but we cannot simply key off passed gfp_mask as that is acquired from root_gfp_mask() and thus the same for all preload users. Another part of the fix is to avoid node preallocation in radix_tree_preload() when passed gfp_mask doesn't allow waiting. Again, preallocation in such case doesn't make sense and when preallocation would happen in interrupt we could possibly leak some allocated nodes. However, some users of radix_tree_preload() require following radix_tree_insert() to succeed. To avoid unexpected effects for these users, radix_tree_preload() only warns if passed gfp mask doesn't allow waiting and we provide a new function radix_tree_maybe_preload() for those users which get different gfp mask from different call sites and which are prepared to handle radix_tree_insert() failure.

In what I expect will be its most common usage, postorder iteration allows the deletion of every node in an rbtree without modifying the rbtree nodes (no _requirement_ that they be nulled) while avoiding referencing child nodes after they have been "deleted" (most commonly, freed). I have only updated zswap to use this functionality at this point, but numerous bits of code (most notably in the filesystem drivers) use a hand rolled postorder iteration that NULLs child links as it traverses the tree. Each of those instances could be replaced with this common implementation. 1 & 2 add rbtree postorder iteration functions. 3 adds testing of the iteration to the rbtree runtime tests 4 allows building the rbtree runtime tests as builtins 5 updates zswap. This patch: Add postorder iteration functions for rbtree. These are useful for safely freeing an entire rbtree without modifying the tree at all.

* | | lib/decompressors: fix "no limit" output buffer lengthAlexandre Courbot2013-09-111-1/+1

The problem with this is that some platforms have their physical memory at high physical addresses (0x80000000 or more), and that the output buffer address and its "unlimited" length cannot be added without overflowing. An example of this can be found in inflate_fast(): /* next_out is the output buffer address */ out = strm->next_out - OFF; /* avail_out is the output buffer size. end will overflow if the output * address is >= 0x80000104 */ end = out + (strm->avail_out - 257); This has huge consequences on the performance of kernel decompression, since the following exit condition of inflate_fast() will be always true: } while (in < last && out < end); Indeed, "end" has overflowed and is now always lower than "out". As a result, inflate_fast() will return after processing one single byte of input data, and will thus need to be called an unreasonably high number of times. This probably went unnoticed because kernel decompression is fast enough even with this issue. Nonetheless, adjusting the output buffer length in such a way that the above pointer arithmetic never overflows results in a kernel decompression that is about 3 times faster on affected machines.

This is only for Syndrome generation; there is more that could be done to improve recovery, as in the recent Intel SSE3 recovery implementation. The code unrolls 8 times; this turns out to be the best on tilegx hardware among the set 1, 2, 4, 8 or 16. The code reads one cache-line of data from each disk, stores P and Q then goes to the next cache-line. The test code in sys/linux/lib/raid6/test reports 2008 MB/s data read rate for syndrome generation using 18 disks (16 data and 2 parity). It was 1512 MB/s before this SIMD optimizations. This is running on 1 core with all the data in cache. This is based on the paper The Mathematics of RAID-6. (http://kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/hpa/raid6.pdf).

At the same time, the dentry cache does have a notion of a truly "dead" dentry that we must not even increment the reference count of, because we have pruned it and it is not valid. Currently that distinction is not visible in the lockref itself, and the dentry cache validation uses "lockref_get_or_lock()" to either get a new reference to a dentry that already had existing references (and thus cannot be dead), or get the dentry lock so that we can then verify the dentry and increment the reference count under the lock if that verification was successful. That's all somewhat complicated. This adds the concept of being "dead" to the lockref itself, by simply using a count that is negative. This allows a usage scenario where we can increment the refcount of a dentry without having to validate it, and pushing the special "we killed it" case into the lockref code. The dentry code itself doesn't actually use this yet, and it's probably too late in the merge window to do that code (the dentry_kill() code with its "should I decrement the count" logic really is pretty complex code), but let's introduce the concept at the lockref level now.

The former gets a 60% performance boost on the NEON, the latter over 400%. ARM: add support for kernel mode NEON Adds kernel_neon_begin/end (renamed from kernel_vfp_begin/end in the previous version to de-emphasize the VFP part as VFP code that needs software assistance is not supported currently.) Introduces <asm/neon.h> and the Kconfig symbol KERNEL_MODE_NEON. This has been aligned with Catalin for arm64, so any NEON code that does not use assembly but intrinsics or the GCC vectorizer (such as my examples) can potentially be shared between arm and arm64 archs. ARM: move VFP init to an earlier boot stage This is needed so the NEON is enabled when the XOR and RAID-6 algo boot time benchmarks are run. ARM: be strict about FP exceptions in kernel mode This adds a check to vfp_support_entry() to flag unsupported uses of the NEON/VFP in kernel mode. FP exceptions (bounces) are flagged as a bug, this is because of their potentially intermittent nature. Exceptions caused by the fact that kernel_neon_begin has not been called are just routed through the undef handler. ARM: crypto: add NEON accelerated XOR implementation This is the xor_blocks() implementation built with -ftree-vectorize, 60% faster than optimized ARM code. It calls in_interrupt() to check whether the NEON flavor can be used: this should really not be necessary, but due to xor_blocks'squite generic nature, there is no telling how exactly people may be using it in the real world. lib/raid6: add ARM-NEON accelerated syndrome calculation This is a port of the RAID-6 checksumming code in altivec.uc ported to use NEON intrinsics. It is about 4x faster than the sequential code.

There is also some maintership changes. Jeremy is enjoying the full-time work at the startup and as much as he would love to help - he can't find the time. I have a bunch of other things that I promised to work on - paravirt diet, get SWIOTLB working everywhere, etc, but haven't been able to find the time. As such both David Vrabel and Boris Ostrovsky have graciously volunteered to help with the maintership role. They will keep the lid on regressions, bug-fixes, etc. I will be in the background to help - but eventually there will be less of me doing the Xen GIT pulls and more of them. Stefano is still doing the ARM/ARM64 and will continue on doing so. Features: - Xen Trusted Platform Module (TPM) frontend driver - with the backend in MiniOS. - Scalability improvements in event channel. - Two extra Xen co-maintainers (David, Boris) and one going away (Jeremy) Bug-fixes: - Make the 1:1 mapping work during early bootup on selective regions. - Add scratch page to balloon driver to deal with unexpected code still holding on stale pages. - Allow NMIs on PV guests (64-bit only) - Remove unnecessary TLB flush in M2P code. - Fixes duplicate callbacks in Xen granttable code. - Fixes in PRIVCMD_MMAPBATCH ioctls to allow retries - Fix for events being lost due to rescheduling on different VCPUs. - More documentation" * tag 'stable/for-linus-3.12-rc0-tag' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/xen/tip: (23 commits) hvc_xen: Remove unnecessary __GFP_ZERO from kzalloc drivers/xen-tpmfront: Fix compile issue with missing option. xen/balloon: don't set P2M entry for auto translated guest xen/evtchn: double free on error Xen: Fix retry calls into PRIVCMD_MMAPBATCH*. xen/pvhvm: Initialize xen panic handler for PVHVM guests xen/m2p: use GNTTABOP_unmap_and_replace to reinstate the original mapping xen: fix ARM build after 6efa20e4 MAINTAINERS: Remove Jeremy from the Xen subsystem. xen/events: document behaviour when scanning the start word for events x86/xen: during early setup, only 1:1 map the ISA region x86/xen: disable premption when enabling local irqs swiotlb-xen: replace dma_length with sg_dma_len() macro swiotlb: replace dma_length with sg_dma_len() macro xen/balloon: set a mapping for ballooned out pages xen/evtchn: improve scalability by using per-user locks xen/p2m: avoid unneccesary TLB flush in m2p_remove_override() MAINTAINERS: Add in two extra co-maintainers of the Xen tree.

This would allow RCU to leak the callback in order to avoid adding freelist-reuse mischief to the duplicate invoations. This commit therefore makes debug_object_activate() return status, zero for success and -EINVAL for failure. Signed-off-by: Paul E.
