2005-10-29[PATCH] mm: msync_pte_range progressHugh Dickins
Use latency breaking in msync_pte_range like that in copy_pte_range, instead of the ugly CONFIG_PREEMPT filemap_msync alternatives. Signed-off-by: Hugh Dickins <hugh@veritas.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2005-10-29[PATCH] mm: copy_pte_range progress fixHugh Dickins
My latency breaking in copy_pte_range didn't work as intended: instead of checking at regularish intervals, after the first interval it checked every time around the loop, too impatient to be preempted. Fix that. Signed-off-by: Hugh Dickins <hugh@veritas.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2005-10-29[PATCH] slab: add additional debugging to detect slabs from the wrong nodeChristoph Lameter
This patch adds some stack dumps if the slab logic is processing slab blocks from the wrong node. This is necessary in order to detect situations as encountered by Petr.

2005-10-29[PATCH] shrink_list(): skip anon pages if not may_swapLee Schermerhorn
Martin Hicks' page cache reclaim patch added the 'may_swap' flag to the scan_control struct; and modified shrink_list() not to add anon pages to the swap cache if may_swap is not asserted. Ref: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-mm&m=111461480725322&w=4 However, further down, if the page is mapped, shrink_list() calls try_to_unmap() which will call try_to_unmap_one() via try_to_unmap_anon (). try_to_unmap_one() will BUG_ON() an anon page that is NOT in the swap cache. Martin says he never encountered this path in his testing, but agrees that it might happen. This patch modifies shrink_list() to skip anon pages that are not already in the swap cache when !may_swap, rather than just not adding them to the cache.

2005-10-29[PATCH] Convert mempolicies to nodemask_tAndi Kleen
The NUMA policy code predated nodemask_t so it used open coded bitmaps. Convert everything to nodemask_t.

2005-10-29[PATCH] mm: set per-cpu-pages lower threshold to zeroSeth, Rohit
Set the low water mark for hot pages in pcp to zero. (akpm: for the life of me I cannot remember why we created pcp->low. Neither can Martin and the changelog is silent. Maybe it was just a brainfart, but I have this feeling that there was a reason. If not, we should remove the fields completely. We'll see.)

2005-10-29[PATCH] mm: page_alloc: increase size of per-cpu-pagesSeth, Rohit
Increase the page allocator's per-cpu magazines from 1/4MB to 1/2MB. Over 100+ runs for a workload, the difference in mean is about 2%. The best results for both are almost same. Though the max variation in results with 1/2MB is only 2.2%, whereas with 1/4MB it is 12%.

2005-10-29[PATCH] swaptoken tuningRik Van Riel
It turns out that the original swap token implementation, by Song Jiang, only enforced the swap token while the task holding the token is handling a page fault. This patch approximates that, without adding an additional flag to the mm_struct, by checking whether the mm->mmap_sem is held for reading, like the page fault code does. This patch has the effect of automatically, and gradually, disabling the enforcement of the swap token when there is little or no paging going on, and "turning up" the intensity of the swap token code the more the task holding the token is thrashing. Thanks to Song Jiang for pointing out this aspect of the token based thrashing control concept. The new code shows a slight degradation over the old swap token code, but still a big win over running without the swap token. 2.6.12+ swap token disabled $ for i in `seq 10` ; do /usr/bin/time ./qsbench -n 30000000 -p 3 ; done 101.74user 23.13system 8:26.91elapsed 24%CPU (0avgtext+0avgdata 0maxresident)k 0inputs+0outputs (38597major+430315minor)pagefaults 0swaps 101.98user 24.91system 8:03.06elapsed 26%CPU (0avgtext+0avgdata 0maxresident)k 0inputs+0outputs (33939major+430457minor)pagefaults 0swaps 101.93user 22.12system 7:34.90elapsed 27%CPU (0avgtext+0avgdata 0maxresident)k 0inputs+0outputs (33166major+421267minor)pagefaults 0swaps 101.82user 22.38system 8:31.40elapsed 24%CPU (0avgtext+0avgdata 0maxresident)k 0inputs+0outputs (39338major+433262minor)pagefaults 0swaps 2.6.12+ swap token enabled, timeout 300 seconds $ for i in `seq 4` ; do /usr/bin/time ./qsbench -n 30000000 -p 3 ; done 102.58user 16.08system 3:41.44elapsed 53%CPU (0avgtext+0avgdata 0maxresident)k 0inputs+0outputs (19707major+285786minor)pagefaults 0swaps 102.07user 19.56system 4:00.64elapsed 50%CPU (0avgtext+0avgdata 0maxresident)k 0inputs+0outputs (19012major+299259minor)pagefaults 0swaps 102.64user 18.25system 4:07.31elapsed 48%CPU (0avgtext+0avgdata 0maxresident)k 0inputs+0outputs (21990major+304831minor)pagefaults 0swaps 101.39user 19.41system 5:15.81elapsed 38%CPU (0avgtext+0avgdata 0maxresident)k 0inputs+0outputs (24850major+323321minor)pagefaults 0swaps 2.6.12+ with new swap token code, timeout 300 seconds $ for i in `seq 4` ; do /usr/bin/time ./qsbench -n 30000000 -p 3 ; done 101.87user 24.66system 5:53.20elapsed 35%CPU (0avgtext+0avgdata 0maxresident)k 0inputs+0outputs (26848major+363497minor)pagefaults 0swaps 102.83user 19.95system 4:17.25elapsed 47%CPU (0avgtext+0avgdata 0maxresident)k 0inputs+0outputs (19946major+305722minor)pagefaults 0swaps 102.09user 19.46system 5:12.57elapsed 38%CPU (0avgtext+0avgdata 0maxresident)k 0inputs+0outputs (25461major+334994minor)pagefaults 0swaps 101.67user 20.61system 4:52.97elapsed 41%CPU (0avgtext+0avgdata 0maxresident)k 0inputs+0outputs (22190major+329508minor)pagefaults 0swaps Signed-off-by: Rik Van Riel <riel@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

2005-10-29[ARM] 3061/1: cleanup the XIP link address messNicolas Pitre
Patch from Nicolas Pitre Since vmlinux.lds.S is preprocessed, we can use the defines already present in asm/memory.h (allowed by patch #3060) for the XIP kernel link address instead of relying on a duplicated Makefile hardcoded value, and also get rid of its dependency on awk to handle it at the same time. While at it let's clean XIP stuff even further and make things clearer in head.S with a nice code reduction.

Patch from Nicolas Pitre This patch allows for assorted type of cleanups by letting assembly code use the same set of defines for constant values and avoid duplicated definitions that might not always be in sync, or that might simply be confusing due to the different names for the same thing.

2005-10-29pci-expmem-hackAndrew Isaacson
CFE 1.2.5 and earlier fails to turn on the ExpMemEn bit in the PCIFeatureControl register, which means that DMA does not work beyond physical address 01_0000_0000, ergo to DRAM beyond 1GB. With ExpMemEn turned on, 01_0000_0000-0f_ffff_ffff is mapped, so DMA works for up to 61 GB of DRAM. Will be fixed in CFE 1.2.6 (yet to be released).
