cxgb3i does not offload the processing of the header,

adds a padding offload flag to detect when the LLD
supports this.
The patch also modifies the header processing so that
we do not try to read/bypass the header dugest in the

can be freed with the pdu in the cleanup_task callout). If
the LLD encodes info in the itt they should implement a

cxgb3i is unlike qla4xxx and bnx2i in that it does not offload entire
scsi commands or iscsi sequences. Instead it only offloads the transfer
of a ISCSI DATA_IN pdu's data, the digests and padding. This patch fixes up the
iscsi tcp recv path so that it exports its skb recv processing so
cxgb3i and other drivers can call them. All they have to do is pass
the function the skb with the hdr or data pdu header and this function

This commit adds i915 driver support for the DRM mode setting APIs.
Currently, VGA, LVDS, SDVO DVI & VGA, TV and DVO LVDS outputs are
supported. HDMI, DisplayPort and additional SDVO output support will
follow.
Support for the mode setting code is controlled by the new 'modeset'
module option. A new config option, CONFIG_DRM_I915_KMS controls the
default behavior, and whether a PCI ID list is built into the module for
use by user level module utilities.
Note that if mode setting is enabled, user level drivers that access
display registers directly or that don't use the kernel graphics memory
manager will likely corrupt kernel graphics memory, disrupt output
configuration (possibly leading to hangs and/or blank displays), and
prevent panic/oops messages from appearing. So use caution when
enabling this code; be sure your user level code supports the new
interfaces.
A new SysRq key, 'g', provides emergency support for switching back to
the kernel's framebuffer console; which is useful for testing.

Add mode setting support to the DRM layer.
This is a fairly big chunk of work that allows DRM drivers to provide
full output control and configuration capabilities to userspace. It was
motivated by several factors:
- the fb layer's APIs aren't suited for anything but simple
configurations
- coordination between the fb layer, DRM layer, and various userspace
drivers is poor to non-existent (radeonfb excepted)
- user level mode setting drivers makes displaying panic & oops
messages more difficult
- suspend/resume of graphics state is possible in many more
configurations with kernel level support
This commit just adds the core DRM part of the mode setting APIs.
Driver specific commits using these new structure and APIs will follow.

...so drm_getunique() is trying to copy some uninitialized data to
userspace. The ECX register contains the number of words that are
left to copy -- so there are 5 * 4 = 20 bytes left. The offset of the
first uninitialized byte (counting from the start of the string) is
also 20 (i.e. 0xf65d2294&((1 << 5)-1) == 20). So somebody tried to
copy 40 bytes when the string was only 19 long.
In drm_set_busid() we have this code:
dev->unique_len = 40;
dev->unique = drm_alloc(dev->unique_len + 1, DRM_MEM_DRIVER);
...
len = snprintf(dev->unique, dev->unique_len, pci:%04x:%02x:%02x.%d",
...so it seems that dev->unique is never updated to reflect the
actual length of the string. The remaining bytes (20 in this case)
are random uninitialized bytes that are copied into userspace.
This patch fixes the problem by setting dev->unique_len after the
snprintf().

we have it for drm_free later.

It splits out the information associated with the drm master

disk_map_sector_rcu() returns a partition from a sector offset,
which we use for IO statistics on a per-partition basis. The
lookup itself is an O(N) list lookup, where N is the number of
partitions. This actually hurts performance quite a bit, even
on the lower end partitions. On higher numbered partitions,
it can get pretty bad.
Solve this by adding a one-hit cache for partition lookup.
This makes the lookup O(1) for the case where we do most IO to
one partition. Even for mixed partition workloads, amortized cost
is pretty close to O(1) since the natural IO batching makes the
one-hit cache last for lots of IOs.

The mm->ioctx_list is currently protected by a reader-writer lock,
so we always grab that lock on the read side for doing ioctx
lookups. As the workload is extremely reader biased, turn this into
an rcu hlist so we can make lookup_ioctx() lockless. Get rid of
the rwlock and use a spinlock for providing update side exclusion.
There's usually only 1 entry on this list, so it doesn't make sense
to look into fancier data structures.

One for the bio itself, and one for the bi_io_vec that holds the
actual pages we are interested in.
This feature inlines a definable amount of io vecs inside the bio
itself, so we eliminate the bio_vec array allocation for IO's up
to a certain size. It defaults to 4 vecs, which is typically 16k

Instead of having a global bio slab cache, add a reference to one

in each bio_set, so that they can have bios of different sizes.
This means we can personalize the bios we return. File systems may
want to embed the bio inside another structure, to avoid allocation
more items (and stuffing them in ->bi_private) after the get a bio.
Or we may want to embed a number of bio_vecs directly at the end
of a bio, to avoid doing two allocations to return a bio. This is now
possible.

Barrier completion had the following assumptions.
* start_ordered() couldn't finish the whole sequence properly. If all
actions are to be skipped, q->ordseq is set correctly but the actual
completion was never triggered thus hanging the barrier request.
* Drain completion in elv_complete_request() assumed that there's
always at least one request in the queue when drain completes.
Both assumptions are true but these assumptions need to be removed to
improve empty barrier implementation. This patch makes the following
changes.
* Make start_ordered() use blk_ordered_complete_seq() to mark skipped
steps complete and notify __elv_next_request() that it should fetch
the next request if the whole barrier has completed inside
start_ordered().
* Make drain completion path in elv_complete_request() check whether
the queue is empty. Empty queue also indicates drain completion.

Allow the scsi request REQ_QUIET flag to be propagated to the buffer
file system layer. The basic ideas is to pass the flag from the scsi
request to the bio (block IO) and then to the buffer layer. The buffer
layer can then suppress needless printks.
This patch declutters the kernel log by removed the 40-50 (per lun)
buffer io error messages seen during a boot in my multipath setup . It
is a good chance any real errors will be missed in the "noise" it the
logs without this patch.
During boot I see blocks of messages like
"
__ratelimit: 211 callbacks suppressed
Buffer I/O error on device sdm, logical block 5242879
Buffer I/O error on device sdm, logical block 5242879
Buffer I/O error on device sdm, logical block 5242847

Buffer I/O error on device sdm, logical block 5242879
Buffer I/O error on device sdm, logical block 5242872
"
in my logs.
My disk environment is multipath fiber channel using the SCSI_DH_RDAC
code and multipathd. This topology includes an "active" and "ghost"
path for each lun. IO's to the "ghost" path will never complete and the
SCSI layer, via the scsi device handler rdac code, quick returns the IOs
to theses paths and sets the REQ_QUIET scsi flag to suppress the scsi
layer messages.
I am wanting to extend the QUIET behavior to include the buffer file
system layer to deal with these errors as well. I have been running this
patch for a while now on several boxes without issue. A few runs of
bonnie++ show no noticeable difference in performance in my setup.

* ata_port_for_each_link() for edge links
* ata_link_for_each_dev() for all devices
* ata_link_for_each_dev_reverse() for all devices in reverse order
Now there's a need for looping construct which is similar to
__ata_port_for_each_link() but iterates over PMP links before the host
link. Instead of adding another one with long name, do the following
cleanup.
* Implement and export ata_link_next() and ata_dev_next() which take
@mode parameter and can be used to build custom loop.
* Implement ata_for_each_link() and ata_for_each_dev() which take
looping mode explicitly.
The following iteration modes are implemented.
* ATA_LITER_EDGE : loop over edge links
* ATA_LITER_HOST_FIRST : loop over all links, host link first
* ATA_LITER_PMP_FIRST : loop over all links, PMP links first
* ATA_DITER_ENABLED : loop over enabled devices
* ATA_DITER_ENABLED_REVERSE : loop over enabled devices in reverse order
* ATA_DITER_ALL : loop over all devices
* ATA_DITER_ALL_REVERSE : loop over all devices in reverse order

See commit 1045b03e07 ("netlink: fix
overrun in attribute iteration") for a detailed explanation of why
this patch is necessary.
In short, nlmsg_next() can make "remaining" go negative, and the
remaining >= sizeof(...) comparison will promote "remaining" to an
unsigned type, which means that the expression will evaluate to
true for negative numbers, even though it was not intended.
I put "theoretical" in the title because I have no evidence that
this can actually happen, but I suspect that a crafted netlink
packet can trigger some badness.
Note that the last test, which seemingly has the exact same
problem (also true for nla_ok()), is perfectly OK, since we
already know that remaining is positive.

This patch swaps the role of libcrc32c and crc32c. Previously

This patch allows shash algorithms to be used through the ahash
interface. This is required before we can convert digest algorithms
over to shash.
Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
The shash interface replaces the current synchronous hash interface.
It improves over hash in two ways. Firstly shash is reentrant,
meaning that the same tfm may be used by two threads simultaneously
as all hashing state is stored in a local descriptor.
The other enhancement is that shash no longer takes scatter list
entries. This is because shash is specifically designed for
synchronous algorithms and as such scatter lists are unnecessary.
All existing hash users will be converted to shash once the
algorithms have been completely converted.
There is also a new finup function that combines update with final.
This will be extended to ahash once the algorithm conversion is
done.
This is also the first time that an algorithm type has their own
registration function. Existing algorithm types will be converted
to this way in due course.

This patch reintroduces a completely revamped crypto_alloc_tfm.
The biggest change is that we now take two crypto_type objects
when allocating a tfm, a frontend and a backend. In fact this
simply formalises what we've been doing behind the API's back.
For example, as it stands crypto_alloc_ahash may use an
actual ahash algorithm or a crypto_hash algorithm. Putting
this in the API allows us to do this much more cleanly.
The existing types will be converted across gradually.

The type exit function needs to undo any allocations done by the type
init function. However, the type init function may differ depending
on the upper-level type of the transform (e.g., a crypto_blkcipher
instantiated as a crypto_ablkcipher).
So we need to move the exit function out of the lower-level
structure and into crypto_tfm itself.
As it stands this is a no-op since nobody uses exit functions at
all. However, all cases where a lower-level type is instantiated
as a different upper-level type (such as blkcipher as ablkcipher)
will be converted such that they allocate the underlying transform
and use that instead of casting (e.g., crypto_ablkcipher casted
into crypto_blkcipher). That will need to use a different exit
function depending on the upper-level type.
This patch also allows the type init/exit functions to call (or not)
cra_init/cra_exit instead of always calling them from the top level.

We want to transition to a new gssd upcall which is text-based and more
easily extensible.
To simplify upgrades, as well as testing and debugging, it will help if
we can upgrade gssd (to a version which understands the new upcall)
without having to choose at boot (or module-load) time whether we want
the new or the old upcall.
We will do this by providing two different pipes: one named, as
currently, after the mechanism (normally "krb5"), and supporting the
old upcall. One named "gssd" and supporting the new upcall version.
We allow gssd to indicate which version it supports by its choice of
which pipe to open.
As we have no interest in supporting *simultaneous* use of both
versions, we'll forbid opening both pipes at the same time.
So, add a new pipe_open callback to the rpc_pipefs api, which the gss
code can use to track which pipes have been open, and to refuse opens of
incompatible pipes.
We only need this to be called on the first open of a given pipe.

Hi.
I've been looking at a bugzilla which describes a problem where
a customer was advised to use either the "noac" or "actimeo=0"
mount options to solve a consistency problem that they were
seeing in the file attributes. It turned out that this solution
did not work reliably for them because sometimes, the local
attribute cache was believed to be valid and not timed out.
(With an attribute cache timeout of 0, the cache should always
appear to be timed out.)
In looking at this situation, it appears to me that the problem
is that the attribute cache timeout code has an off-by-one
error in it. It is assuming that the cache is valid in the
region, [read_cache_jiffies, read_cache_jiffies + attrtimeo]. The
cache should be considered valid only in the region,
[read_cache_jiffies, read_cache_jiffies + attrtimeo). With this
change, the options, "noac" and "actimeo=0", work as originally
expected.
This problem was previously addressed by special casing the
attrtimeo == 0 case. However, since the problem is only an off-
by-one error, the cleaner solution is address the off-by-one
error and thus, not require the special case.
Thanx...

If the admin has specified the "noresvport" option for an NFS mount
point, the kernel's NFS client uses an unprivileged source port for
the main NFS transport. The kernel's lockd client should use an
unprivileged port in this case as well.
Signed-off-by: Chuck Lever <chuck.lever@oracle.com>
Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
The standard default security setting for NFS is AUTH_SYS. An NFS
client connects to NFS servers via a privileged source port and a
fixed standard destination port (2049). The client sends raw uid and
gid numbers to identify users making NFS requests, and the server
assumes an appropriate authority on the client has vetted these
values because the source port is privileged.
On Linux, by default in-kernel RPC services use a privileged port in
the range between 650 and 1023 to avoid using source ports of well-
known IP services. Using such a small range limits the number of NFS
mount points and the number of unique NFS servers to which a client
can connect concurrently.
An NFS client can use unprivileged source ports to expand the range of
source port numbers, allowing more concurrent server connections and
more NFS mount points. Servers must explicitly allow NFS connections
from unprivileged ports for this to work.
In the past, bumping the value of the sunrpc.max_resvport sysctl on
the client would permit the NFS client to use unprivileged ports.
Bumping this setting also changes the maximum port number used by
other in-kernel RPC services, some of which still required a port
number less than 1023.
This is exacerbated by the way source port numbers are chosen by the
Linux RPC client, which starts at the top of the range and works
downwards. It means that bumping the maximum means all RPC services
requesting a source port will likely get an unprivileged port instead
of a privileged one.
Changing this setting effects all NFS mount points on a client. A
sysadmin could not selectively choose which mount points would use
non-privileged ports and which could not.
Lastly, this mechanism of expanding the limit on the number of NFS
mount points was entirely undocumented.
To address the need for the NFS client to use a large range of source
ports without interfering with the activity of other in-kernel RPC
services, we introduce a new NFS mount option. This option explicitly
tells only the NFS client to use a non-privileged source port when
communicating with the NFS server for one specific mount point.
This new mount option is called "resvport," like the similar NFS mount
option on FreeBSD and Mac OS X. A sister patch for nfs-utils will be
submitted that documents this new option in nfs(5).
The default setting for this new mount option requires the NFS client
to use a privileged port, as before. Explicitly specifying the
"noresvport" mount option allows the NFS client to use an unprivileged
source port for this mount point when connecting to the NFS server
port.
This mount option is supported only for text-based NFS mounts.
[ Sidebar: it is widely known that security mechanisms based on the
use of privileged source ports are ineffective. However, the NFS
client can combine the use of unprivileged ports with the use of
secure authentication mechanisms, such as Kerberos. This allows a
large number of connections and mount points while ensuring a useful
level of security.
Eventually we may change the default setting for this option
depending on the security flavor used for the mount. For example,
if the mount is using only AUTH_SYS, then the default setting will
be "resvport;" if the mount is using a strong security flavor such
as krb5, the default setting will be "noresvport." ]

Somehow, this escaped the previous purge. There should be no need to keep
any extra locks in the XDR callbacks.
The NFS client XDR code only writes into private objects, whereas all reads
of shared objects are confined to fields that do not change, such as
filehandles...
Ditto for lockd, the NFSv2/v3 client mount code, and rpcbind.
The nfsd XDR code may require the BKL, but since it does a synchronous RPC
call from a thread that already holds the lock, that issue is moot.

This patch adds sh_mobile_lcdcfb deferred io support for SYS panels.
The LCDC hardware block managed by the sh_mobile_lcdcfb driver supports
RGB or SYS panel configurations. SYS panels come with an external display
controller that is resposible for refreshing the actual LCD panel. RGB
panels are controlled directly by the LCDC and they need to be refreshed
by the LCDC hardware.
In the case of SYS panels we can save some power by configuring the LCDC
hardware block in one-shot mode. In this one-shot mode panel refresh is
managed by software. This works well together with deferred io since it
allows us to stop clocks for most of the time and only enable clocks when
we actually want to trigger an update. When there is no fbdev activity
the clocks are kept stopped which allows us to deep sleep.
The refresh rate in deferred io mode is set using platform data. The same
platform data can also be used to disable deferred io mode.
As with other deferred io frame buffers user space code should use fsync()
on the frame buffer device to trigger an update.

This patch implements dynamic power save for mac80211. Basically it
means enabling power save mode after an idle period. Implementing it
dynamically gives a good compromise of low power consumption and low
latency. Some hardware have support for this in firmware, but some
require the host to do it.
The dynamic power save is implemented by adding an timeout to
ieee80211_subif_start_xmit(). The timeout can be enabled from userspace
with Wireless Extensions. For example, the command below enables the
dynamic power save and sets the time timeout to 500 ms:
iwconfig wlan0 power timeout 500m
Power save now only works with devices which handle power save in firmware.
It's also disabled by default and the heuristics when and how to enable is
considered as a policy decision and will be left for the userspace to handle.
In case the firmware has support for this, drivers can disable this feature
with IEEE80211_HW_NO_STACK_DYNAMIC_PS.

Ingo and Mike Galbraith have optimised the SD flags by
removing SD_BALANCE_NEWIDLE at MC and CPU level. This
helps performance but hurts power savings since this
slows down task consolidation by reducing the number
of times load_balance is run.

commit 9fcd18c9e6

Date: Wed Nov 5 16:52:08 2008 +0100
This patch selectively enables SD_BALANCE_NEWIDLE flag
only when sched_mc is set to 1 or 2. This helps power savings
by task consolidation and also does not hurt performance at
sched_mc=0 where all power saving optimisations are turned off.

Impact: extend range of /sys/devices/system/cpu/sched_mc_power_savings
Currently the sched_mc/smt_power_savings variable is a boolean,
which either enables or disables topology based power savings.
This patch extends the behaviour of the variable from boolean to
multivalued, such that based on the value, we decide how
aggressively do we want to perform powersavings balance at
appropriate sched domain based on topology.
Variable levels of power saving tunable would benefit end user to
match the required level of power savings vs performance
trade-off depending on the system configuration and workloads.
This version makes the sched_mc_power_savings global variable to
take more values (0,1,2). Later versions can have a single
tunable called sched_power_savings instead of
sched_{mc,smt}_power_savings.

Impact: cleanup
BALANCE_FOR_MC_POWER and similar macros defined in sched.h are
not constants and have various condition checks and significant
amount of code that is not suitable to be contain in a macro.
Also there could be side effects on the expressions passed to
some of them like test_sd_parent().
This patch converts all complex macros related to power savings
balance to inline functions.

Impact: add new sysfs files.
Add sysfs files "kernel_max" and "offline" to display the max CPU index
allowed (NR_CPUS-1), and the map of cpus that are offline.
Cpus can be offlined via HOTPLUG, disabled by the BIOS ACPI tables, or
if they exceed the number of cpus allowed by the NR_CPUS config option,
or the "maxcpus=NUM" kernel start parameter.
The "possible_cpus=NUM" parameter can also extend the number of possible
cpus allowed, in which case the cpus not present at startup will be
in the offline state. (These cpus can be HOTPLUGGED ON after system
startup [pending a follow-on patch to provide the capability via the
/sys/devices/sys/cpu/cpuN/online mechanism to bring them online.])
By design, the "offlined cpus > possible cpus" display will always
use the following formats:
* all possible cpus online: "x$" or "x-y$"
* some possible cpus offline: ".*,x$" or ".*,x-y$"
where:
x == number of possible cpus (nr_cpu_ids); and
y == number of cpus >= NR_CPUS or maxcpus (if y > x).
One use of this feature is for distros to select (or configure) the
appropriate kernel to install for the resident system.
Notes:
* cpus offlined <= possible cpus will be printed for all architectures.
* cpus offlined > possible cpus will only be printed for arches that
set 'total_cpus' [X86 only in this patch].

Impact: Code transformation, new functions added should have no effect.
Drivers use mmap followed by pgprot_* and remap_pfn_range or vm_insert_pfn,
in order to export reserved memory to userspace. Currently, such mappings are
not tracked and hence not kept consistent with other mappings (/dev/mem,
pci resource, ioremap) for the sme memory, that may exist in the system.
The following patchset adds x86 PAT attribute tracking and untracking for
pfnmap related APIs.
First three patches in the patchset are changing the generic mm code to fit
in this tracking. Last four patches are x86 specific to make things work
with x86 PAT code. The patchset aso introduces pgprot_writecombine interface,
which gives writecombine mapping when enabled, falling back to
pgprot_noncached otherwise.
This patch:
While working on x86 PAT, we faced some hurdles with trackking
remap_pfn_range() regions, as we do not have any information to say
whether that PFNMAP mapping is linear for the entire vma range or
it is smaller granularity regions within the vma.
A simple solution to this is to use vm_pgoff as an indicator for
linear mapping over the vma region. Currently, remap_pfn_range
only sets vm_pgoff for COW mappings. Below patch changes the
logic and sets the vm_pgoff irrespective of COW. This will still not
be enough for the case where pfn is zero (vma region mapped to
physical address zero). But, for all the other cases, we can look at
pfnmap VMAs and say whether the mappng is for the entire vma region
or not.

This patch fixes a long-standing performance bug in classic RCU that
results in massive internal-to-RCU lock contention on systems with
more than a few hundred CPUs. Although this patch creates a separate
flavor of RCU for ease of review and patch maintenance, it is intended
to replace classic RCU.
This patch still handles stress better than does mainline, so I am still
calling it ready for inclusion. This patch is against the -tip tree.
Nevertheless, experience on an actual 1000+ CPU machine would still be
most welcome.
Most of the changes noted below were found while creating an rcutiny
(which should permit ejecting the current rcuclassic) and while doing
detailed line-by-line documentation.
Updates from v9 (http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/12/2/334):
o Fixes from remainder of line-by-line code walkthrough,
including comment spelling, initialization, undesirable
narrowing due to type conversion, removing redundant memory
barriers, removing redundant local-variable initialization,
and removing redundant local variables.
I do not believe that any of these fixes address the CPU-hotplug
issues that Andi Kleen was seeing, but please do give it a whirl
in case the machine is smarter than I am.
A writeup from the walkthrough may be found at the following
URL, in case you are suffering from terminal insomnia or
masochism:
http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/paulmck/tmp/rcutree-walkthrough.2008.12.16a.pdf
o Made rcutree tracing use seq_file, as suggested some time
ago by Lai Jiangshan.
o Added a .csv variant of the rcudata debugfs trace file, to allow
people having thousands of CPUs to drop the data into
a spreadsheet. Tested with oocalc and gnumeric. Updated
documentation to suit.
Updates from v8 (http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/11/15/139):
o Fix a theoretical race between grace-period initialization and
force_quiescent_state() that could occur if more than three
jiffies were required to carry out the grace-period
initialization. Which it might, if you had enough CPUs.
o Apply Ingo's printk-standardization patch.
o Substitute local variables for repeated accesses to global
variables.
o Fix comment misspellings and redundant (but harmless) increments
of ->n_rcu_pending (this latter after having explicitly added it).
o Apply checkpatch fixes.
Updates from v7 (http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/10/10/291):
o Fixed a number of problems noted by Gautham Shenoy, including
the cpu-stall-detection bug that he was having difficulty
convincing me was real. ;-)
o Changed cpu-stall detection to wait for ten seconds rather than
three in order to reduce false positive, as suggested by Ingo
Molnar.
o Produced a design document (http://lwn.net/Articles/305782/).
The act of writing this document uncovered a number of both
theoretical and "here and now" bugs as noted below.
o Fix dynticks_nesting accounting confusion, simplify WARN_ON()
condition, fix kerneldoc comments, and add memory barriers
in dynticks interface functions.
o Add more data to tracing.
o Remove unused "rcu_barrier" field from rcu_data structure.
o Count calls to rcu_pending() from scheduling-clock interrupt
to use as a surrogate timebase should jiffies stop counting.
o Fix a theoretical race between force_quiescent_state() and
grace-period initialization. Yes, initialization does have to
go on for some jiffies for this race to occur, but given enough
CPUs...
Updates from v6 (http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/9/23/448):
o Fix a number of checkpatch.pl complaints.
o Apply review comments from Ingo Molnar and Lai Jiangshan
on the stall-detection code.
o Fix several bugs in !CONFIG_SMP builds.
o Fix a misspelled config-parameter name so that RCU now announces
at boot time if stall detection is configured.
o Run tests on numerous combinations of configurations parameters,
which after the fixes above, now build and run correctly.
Updates from v5 (http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/9/15/92, bad subject line):
o Fix a compiler error in the !CONFIG_FANOUT_EXACT case (blew a
changeset some time ago, and finally got around to retesting
this option).
o Fix some tracing bugs in rcupreempt that caused incorrect
totals to be printed.
o I now test with a more brutal random-selection online/offline
script (attached). Probably more brutal than it needs to be
on the people reading it as well, but so it goes.
o A number of optimizations and usability improvements:
o Make rcu_pending() ignore the grace-period timeout when
there is no grace period in progress.
o Make force_quiescent_state() avoid going for a global
lock in the case where there is no grace period in
progress.
o Rearrange struct fields to improve struct layout.
o Make call_rcu() initiate a grace period if RCU was
idle, rather than waiting for the next scheduling
clock interrupt.
o Invoke rcu_irq_enter() and rcu_irq_exit() only when
idle, as suggested by Andi Kleen. I still don't
completely trust this change, and might back it out.
o Make CONFIG_RCU_TRACE be the single config variable
manipulated for all forms of RCU, instead of the prior
confusion.
o Document tracing files and formats for both rcupreempt
and rcutree.
Updates from v4 for those missing v5 given its bad subject line:
o Separated dynticks interface so that NMIs and irqs call separate
functions, greatly simplifying it. In particular, this code
no longer requires a proof of correctness. ;-)
o Separated dynticks state out into its own per-CPU structure,
avoiding the duplicated accounting.
o The case where a dynticks-idle CPU runs an irq handler that
invokes call_rcu() is now correctly handled, forcing that CPU
out of dynticks-idle mode.
o Review comments have been applied (thank you all!!!).
For but one example, fixed the dynticks-ordering issue that
Manfred pointed out, saving me much debugging. ;-)
o Adjusted rcuclassic and rcupreempt to handle dynticks changes.
Attached is an updated patch to Classic RCU that applies a hierarchy,
greatly reducing the contention on the top-level lock for large machines.
This passes 10-hour concurrent rcutorture and online-offline testing on
128-CPU ppc64 without dynticks enabled, and exposes some timekeeping
bugs in presence of dynticks (exciting working on a system where
"sleep 1" hangs until interrupted...), which were fixed in the
2.6.27 kernel. It is getting more reliable than mainline by some
measures, so the next version will be against -tip for inclusion.
See also Manfred Spraul's recent patches (or his earlier work from
2004 at http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=108546384711797&w=2).
We will converge onto a common patch in the fullness of time, but are
currently exploring different regions of the design space. That said,
I have already gratefully stolen quite a few of Manfred's ideas.
This patch provides CONFIG_RCU_FANOUT, which controls the bushiness
of the RCU hierarchy. Defaults to 32 on 32-bit machines and 64 on
64-bit machines. If CONFIG_NR_CPUS is less than CONFIG_RCU_FANOUT,
there is no hierarchy. By default, the RCU initialization code will
adjust CONFIG_RCU_FANOUT to balance the hierarchy, so strongly NUMA
architectures may choose to set CONFIG_RCU_FANOUT_EXACT to disable
this balancing, allowing the hierarchy to be exactly aligned to the
underlying hardware. Up to two levels of hierarchy are permitted
(in addition to the root node), allowing up to 16,384 CPUs on 32-bit
systems and up to 262,144 CPUs on 64-bit systems. I just know that I
am going to regret saying this, but this seems more than sufficient
for the foreseeable future. (Some architectures might wish to set
CONFIG_RCU_FANOUT=4, which would limit such architectures to 64 CPUs.
If this becomes a real problem, additional levels can be added, but I
doubt that it will make a significant difference on real hardware.)
In the common case, a given CPU will manipulate its private rcu_data
structure and the rcu_node structure that it shares with its immediate
neighbors. This can reduce both lock and memory contention by multiple
orders of magnitude, which should eliminate the need for the strange
manipulations that are reported to be required when running Linux on
very large systems.
Some shortcomings:
o More bugs will probably surface as a result of an ongoing
line-by-line code inspection.
Patches will be provided as required.
o There are probably hangs, rcutorture failures, &c. Seems
quite stable on a 128-CPU machine, but that is kind of small
compared to 4096 CPUs. However, seems to do better than
mainline.
Patches will be provided as required.
o The memory footprint of this version is several KB larger
than rcuclassic.
A separate UP-only rcutiny patch will be provided, which will
reduce the memory footprint significantly, even compared
to the old rcuclassic. One such patch passes light testing,
and has a memory footprint smaller even than rcuclassic.
Initial reaction from various embedded guys was "it is not
worth it", so am putting it aside.
