Small fixes/changes for RDS
I got a report of one issue within RDS (after investigation it was a double

WARNING triggered on a specially instrumented kernel). The report/test was done
on a very old kernel (RHEL 5, 2.6.18 based with backports), but the problem the

I got a report of a double free happening at RDS slab cache. One
suspicion was that may be somewhere we were doing a sock_hold/sock_put
on an already freed sock. Thus after providing a kernel with the
following change:
static inline void sock_hold(struct sock *sk)
{
- atomic_inc(&sk->sk_refcnt);
+ if (!atomic_inc_not_zero(&sk->sk_refcnt))
+ WARN(1, "Trying to hold sock already gone: %p (family: %hd)\n",
+ sk, sk->sk_family);
}
The warning successfuly triggered:
Trying to hold sock already gone: ffff81f6dda61280 (family: 21)

Looking at the call chain above, the only way I think this would be
possible is if somewhere we already released the same socket->sock which
is assigned to the rds_message at rds_send_remove_from_sock. Which seems
only possible to happen after the tear down done on rds_release.
rds_release properly calls rds_send_drop_to to drop the socket from any
rds_message, and some proper synchronization is in place to avoid race
with rds_send_drop_acked/rds_send_remove_from_sock. However, I still see
a very narrow window where it may be possible we touch a sock already
released: when rds_release races with rds_send_drop_acked, we check
RDS_MSG_ON_CONN to avoid cleanup on the same rds_message, but in this
specific case we don't clear rm->m_rs. In this case, it seems we could
then go on at rds_send_drop_to and after it returns, the sock is freed
by last sock_put on rds_release, with concurrently we being at
rds_send_remove_from_sock; then at some point in the loop at
rds_send_remove_from_sock we process an rds_message which didn't have
rm->m_rs unset for a freed sock, and a possible sock_hold on an sock
already gone at rds_release happens.
This hopefully address the described condition above and avoids a double
free on "second last" sock_put. In addition, I removed the comment about
socket destruction on top of rds_send_drop_acked: we call rds_send_drop_to
in rds_release and we should have things properly serialized there, thus
I can't see the comment being accurate there.

I see two problems if we consider the sock->ops->connect attempt to fail in
rds_tcp_conn_connect. The first issue is that for example we don't remove the
previously added rds_tcp_connection item to rds_tcp_tc_list at
rds_tcp_set_callbacks, which means that on a next reconnect attempt for the
same rds_connection, when rds_tcp_conn_connect is called we can again call
rds_tcp_set_callbacks, resulting in duplicated items on rds_tcp_tc_list,
leading to list corruption: to avoid this just make sure we call
properly rds_tcp_restore_callbacks before we exit. The second issue
is that we should also release the sock properly, by setting sock = NULL
only if we are returning without error.

qdisc: bulk dequeue support
This patchset uses DaveM's recent API changes to dev_hard_start_xmit(),
from the qdisc layer, to implement dequeue bulking.
Patch01: "qdisc: bulk dequeue support for qdiscs with TCQ_F_ONETXQUEUE"
- Implement basic qdisc dequeue bulking
- This time, 100% relying on BQL limits, no magic safe-guard constants
Patch02: "qdisc: dequeue bulking also pickup GSO/TSO packets"
- Extend bulking to bulk several GSO/TSO packets
- Seperate patch, as it introduce a small regression, see test section.
We do have a patch03, which exports a userspace tunable as a BQL
tunable, that can byte-cap or disable the bulking/bursting. But we
could not agree on it internally, thus not sending it now. We
basically strive to avoid adding any new userspace tunable.
Testing patch01:
================
Demonstrating the performance improvement of qdisc dequeue bulking, is
tricky because the effect only "kicks-in" once the qdisc system have a
backlog. Thus, for a backlog to form, we need either 1) to exceed wirespeed
of the link or 2) exceed the capability of the device driver.
For practical use-cases, the measureable effect of this will be a
reduction in CPU usage
01-TCP_STREAM:
--------------
Testing effect for TCP involves disabling TSO and GSO, because TCP
already benefit from bulking, via TSO and especially for GSO segmented
packets. This patch view TSO/GSO as a seperate kind of bulking, and
avoid further bulking of these packet types.
The measured perf diff benefit (at 10Gbit/s) for a single netperf
TCP_STREAM were 9.24% less CPU used on calls to _raw_spin_lock()
(mostly from sch_direct_xmit).
If my E5-2695v2(ES) CPU is tuned according to:
http://netoptimizer.blogspot.dk/2014/04/basic-tuning-for-network-overload.html
Then it is possible that a single netperf TCP_STREAM, with GSO and TSO
disabled, can utilize all bandwidth on a 10Gbit/s link. This will
then cause a standing backlog queue at the qdisc layer.
Trying to pressure the system some more CPU util wise, I'm starting
24x TCP_STREAMs and monitoring the overall CPU utilization. This
confirms bulking saves CPU cycles when it "kicks-in".
Tool mpstat, while stressing the system with netperf 24x TCP_STREAM, shows:
* Disabled bulking: sys:2.58% soft:8.50% idle:88.78%
* Enabled bulking: sys:2.43% soft:7.66% idle:89.79%
02-UDP_STREAM
-------------
The measured perf diff benefit for UDP_STREAM were 6.41% less CPU used
on calls to _raw_spin_lock(). 24x UDP_STREAM with packet size -m 1472 (to
avoid sending UDP/IP fragments).
03-trafgen driver test
----------------------
The performance of the 10Gbit/s ixgbe driver is limited due to
updating the HW ring-queue tail-pointer on every packet. As
previously demonstrated with pktgen.
Using trafgen to send RAW frames from userspace (via AF_PACKET), and
forcing it through qdisc path (with option --qdisc-path and -t0),
sending with 12 CPUs.
I can demonstrate this driver layer limitation:
* 12.8 Mpps with no qdisc bulking
* 14.8 Mpps with qdisc bulking (full 10G-wirespeed)
Testing patch02:
================
Testing Bulking several GSO/TSO packets:
Measuring HoL (Head-of-Line) blocking for TSO and GSO, with
netperf-wrapper. Bulking several TSO show no performance regressions
(requeues were in the area 32 requeues/sec for 10G while transmitting
approx 813Kpps).
Bulking several GSOs does show small regression or very small
improvement (requeues were in the area 8000 requeues/sec, for 10G
while transmitting approx 813Kpps).
Using ixgbe 10Gbit/s with GSO bulking, we can measure some additional
latency. Base-case, which is "normal" GSO bulking, sees varying
high-prio queue delay between 0.38ms to 0.47ms. Bulking several GSOs
together, result in a stable high-prio queue delay of 0.50ms.
Corrosponding to:
(10000*10^6)*((0.50-0.47)/10^3)/8 = 37500 bytes
(10000*10^6)*((0.50-0.38)/10^3)/8 = 150000 bytes
37500/1500 = 25 pkts
150000/1500 = 100 pkts
Using igb at 100Mbit/s with GSO bulking, shows an improvement.
Base-case sees varying high-prio queue delay between 2.23ms to 2.35ms
diff of 0.12ms corrosponding to 1500 bytes at 100Mbit/s. Bulking
several GSOs together, result in a stable high-prio queue delay of
2.23ms.

The TSO and GSO segmented packets already benefit from bulking
on their own.
The TSO packets have always taken advantage of the only updating
the tailptr once for a large packet.
The GSO segmented packets have recently taken advantage of
bulking xmit_more API, via merge commit 53fda7f7f9 ("Merge
branch 'xmit_list'"), specifically via commit 7f2e870f2a ("net:
Move main gso loop out of dev_hard_start_xmit() into helper.")
allowing qdisc requeue of remaining list. And via commit
ce93718fb7 ("net: Don't keep around original SKB when we
software segment GSO frames.").
This patch allow further bulking of TSO/GSO packets together,
when dequeueing from the qdisc.
Testing:
Measuring HoL (Head-of-Line) blocking for TSO and GSO, with
netperf-wrapper. Bulking several TSO show no performance regressions
(requeues were in the area 32 requeues/sec).
Bulking several GSOs does show small regression or very small

Based on DaveM's recent API work on dev_hard_start_xmit(), that allows
sending/processing an entire skb list.
This patch implements qdisc bulk dequeue, by allowing multiple packets
to be dequeued in dequeue_skb().
The optimization principle for this is two fold, (1) to amortize
locking cost and (2) avoid expensive tailptr update for notifying HW.
(1) Several packets are dequeued while holding the qdisc root_lock,
amortizing locking cost over several packet. The dequeued SKB list is
processed under the TXQ lock in dev_hard_start_xmit(), thus also
amortizing the cost of the TXQ lock.
(2) Further more, dev_hard_start_xmit() will utilize the skb->xmit_more
API to delay HW tailptr update, which also reduces the cost per
packet.
One restriction of the new API is that every SKB must belong to the
same TXQ. This patch takes the easy way out, by restricting bulk
dequeue to qdisc's with the TCQ_F_ONETXQUEUE flag, that specifies the
qdisc only have attached a single TXQ.
Some detail about the flow; dev_hard_start_xmit() will process the skb
list, and transmit packets individually towards the driver (see
xmit_one()). In case the driver stops midway in the list, the
remaining skb list is returned by dev_hard_start_xmit(). In
sch_direct_xmit() this returned list is requeued by dev_requeue_skb().
To avoid overshooting the HW limits, which results in requeuing, the
patch limits the amount of bytes dequeued, based on the drivers BQL
limits. In-effect bulking will only happen for BQL enabled drivers.
Small amounts for extra HoL blocking (2x MTU/0.24ms) were
measured at 100Mbit/s, with bulking 8 packets, but the
oscillating nature of the measurement indicate something, like
sched latency might be causing this effect. More comparisons
show, that this oscillation goes away occationally. Thus, we
disregard this artifact completely and remove any "magic" bulking
limit.
For now, as a conservative approach, stop bulking when seeing TSO and
segmented GSO packets. They already benefit from bulking on their own.
A followup patch add this, to allow easier bisect-ability for finding
regressions.

hwreg_present() and hwreg_write() temporarily change the VBR register to
another vector table. This table contains a valid bus error handler
only, all other entries point to arbitrary addresses.
If an interrupt comes in while the temporary table is active, the
processor will start executing at such an arbitrary address, and the
kernel will crash.
While most callers run early, before interrupts are enabled, or
explicitly disable interrupts, Finn Thain pointed out that macsonic has
one callsite that doesn't, causing intermittent boot crashes.
There's another unsafe callsite in hilkbd.
Fix this for good by disabling and restoring interrupts inside
hwreg_present() and hwreg_write().
Explicitly disabling interrupts can be removed from the callsites later.

The zone allocation batches can easily underflow due to higher-order
allocations or spills to remote nodes. On SMP that's fine, because
underflows are expected from concurrency and dealt with by returning 0.
But on UP, zone_page_state will just return a wrapped unsigned long,
which will get past the <= 0 check and then consider the zone eligible
until its watermarks are hit.
Commit 3a025760fc ("mm: page_alloc: spill to remote nodes before

atomic_long_read() to accomodate underflows from remote spills, but it

Oleg noticed that a cleanup by Sylvain actually uncovered a bug; by
calling perf_event_free_task() when failing sched_fork() we will not yet
have done the memset() on ->perf_event_ctxp[] and will therefore try and
'free' the inherited contexts, which are still in use by the parent
process. This is bad..

The cgroup iterators yield css objects that have not yet gone through
css_online(), but they are not complete memcgs at this point and so the
memcg iterators should not return them. Commit d8ad305597 ("mm/memcg:
iteration skip memcgs not yet fully initialized") set out to implement
exactly this, but it uses CSS_ONLINE, a cgroup-internal flag that does
not meet the ordering requirements for memcg, and so the iterator may
skip over initialized groups, or return partially initialized memcgs.
The cgroup core can not reasonably provide a clear answer on whether the
object around the css has been fully initialized, as that depends on
controller-specific locking and lifetime rules. Thus, introduce a
memcg-specific flag that is set after the memcg has been initialized in
css_online(), and read before mem_cgroup_iter() callers access the memcg
members.

Pull media fix from Mauro Carvalho Chehab:
"One last time regression fix at em28xx. The removal of .reset_resume
broke suspend/resume on this driver for some devices.
There are more fixes to be done for em28xx suspend/resume to be better
handled, but I'm opting to let them to stay for a while at the media
devel tree, in order to get more tests. So, for now, let's just
revert this patch"

Revert "[media] media: em28xx - remove reset_resume interface"
Commit 651e22f270 "ring-buffer: Always reset iterator to reader page"
fixed one bug but in the process caused another one. The reset is to
update the header page, but that fix also changed the way the cached
reads were updated. The cache reads are used to test if an iterator
needs to be updated or not.
A ring buffer iterator, when created, disables writes to the ring buffer
but does not stop other readers or consuming reads from happening.
Although all readers are synchronized via a lock, they are only
synchronized when in the ring buffer functions. Those functions may
be called by any number of readers. The iterator continues down when
its not interrupted by a consuming reader. If a consuming read
occurs, the iterator starts from the beginning of the buffer.
The way the iterator sees that a consuming read has happened since
its last read is by checking the reader "cache". The cache holds the
last counts of the read and the reader page itself.
Commit 651e22f270 changed what was saved by the cache_read when
the rb_iter_reset() occurred, making the iterator never match the cache.
Then if the iterator calls rb_iter_reset(), it will go into an
infinite loop by checking if the cache doesn't match, doing the reset
and retrying, just to see that the cache still doesn't match! Which
should never happen as the reset is suppose to set the cache to the
current value and there's locks that keep a consuming reader from
having access to the data.
