2008-07-26sparc64: use generic show_mem()Johannes Weiner
Remove arch-specific show_mem() in favor of the generic version. This also removes the following redundant information display: - free swap pages, printed by show_swap_cache_info() - pages in swapcache, printed by show_swap_cache_info() - dirty pages, writeback pages, mapped pages, slab pages, pagetables pages, printed by show_free_areas() where show_mem() calls show_free_areas(), which calls show_swap_cache_info().

2008-07-25kprobes: improve kretprobe scalability with hashed lockingSrinivasa D S
Currently list of kretprobe instances are stored in kretprobe object (as used_instances,free_instances) and in kretprobe hash table. We have one global kretprobe lock to serialise the access to these lists. This causes only one kretprobe handler to execute at a time. Hence affects system performance, particularly on SMP systems and when return probe is set on lot of functions (like on all systemcalls). Solution proposed here gives fine-grain locks that performs better on SMP system compared to present kretprobe implementation. Solution: 1) Instead of having one global lock to protect kretprobe instances present in kretprobe object and kretprobe hash table. We will have two locks, one lock for protecting kretprobe hash table and another lock for kretporbe object. 2) We hold lock present in kretprobe object while we modify kretprobe instance in kretprobe object and we hold per-hash-list lock while modifying kretprobe instances present in that hash list. To prevent deadlock, we never grab a per-hash-list lock while holding a kretprobe lock. 3) We can remove used_instances from struct kretprobe, as we can track used instances of kretprobe instances using kretprobe hash table.

2008-07-24flag parameters: pipeUlrich Drepper
This patch introduces the new syscall pipe2 which is like pipe but it also takes an additional parameter which takes a flag value. This patch implements the handling of O_CLOEXEC for the flag. I did not add support for the new syscall for the architectures which have a special sys_pipe implementation. I think the maintainers of those archs have the chance to go with the unified implementation but that's up to them. The implementation introduces do_pipe_flags. I did that instead of changing all callers of do_pipe because some of the callers are written in assembler. I would probably screw up changing the assembly code. To avoid breaking code do_pipe is now a small wrapper around do_pipe_flags. Once all callers are changed over to do_pipe_flags the old do_pipe function can be removed. The following test must be adjusted for architectures other than x86 and x86-64 and in case the syscall numbers changed. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ #include <fcntl.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <unistd.h> #include <sys/syscall.h> #ifndef __NR_pipe2 # ifdef __x86_64__ # define __NR_pipe2 293 # elif defined __i386__ # define __NR_pipe2 331 # else # error "need __NR_pipe2" # endif #endif int main (void) { int fd[2]; if (syscall (__NR_pipe2, fd, 0) != 0) { puts ("pipe2(0) failed"); return 1; } for (int i = 0; i < 2; ++i) { int coe = fcntl (fd[i], F_GETFD); if (coe == -1) { puts ("fcntl failed"); return 1; } if (coe & FD_CLOEXEC) { printf ("pipe2(0) set close-on-exit for fd[%d]\n", i); return 1; } } close (fd[0]); close (fd[1]); if (syscall (__NR_pipe2, fd, O_CLOEXEC) != 0) { puts ("pipe2(O_CLOEXEC) failed"); return 1; } for (int i = 0; i < 2; ++i) { int coe = fcntl (fd[i], F_GETFD); if (coe == -1) { puts ("fcntl failed"); return 1; } if ((coe & FD_CLOEXEC) == 0) { printf ("pipe2(O_CLOEXEC) does not set close-on-exit for fd[%d]\n", i); return 1; } } close (fd[0]); close (fd[1]); puts ("OK"); return 0; } ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Signed-off-by: Ulrich Drepper <drepper@redhat.com> Acked-by: Davide Libenzi <davidel@xmailserver.org> Cc: Michael Kerrisk <mtk.manpages@googlemail.com> Cc: <linux-arch@vger.kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2008-07-24PAGE_ALIGN(): correctly handle 64-bit values on 32-bit architecturesAndrea Righi
On 32-bit architectures PAGE_ALIGN() truncates 64-bit values to the 32-bit boundary. For example: u64 val = PAGE_ALIGN(size); always returns a value < 4GB even if size is greater than 4GB. The problem resides in PAGE_MASK definition (from include/asm-x86/page.h for example): #define PAGE_SHIFT 12 #define PAGE_SIZE (_AC(1,UL) << PAGE_SHIFT) #define PAGE_MASK (~(PAGE_SIZE-1)) ... #define PAGE_ALIGN(addr) (((addr)+PAGE_SIZE-1)&PAGE_MASK) The "~" is performed on a 32-bit value, so everything in "and" with PAGE_MASK greater than 4GB will be truncated to the 32-bit boundary. Using the ALIGN() macro seems to be the right way, because it uses typeof(addr) for the mask. Also move the PAGE_ALIGN() definitions out of include/asm-*/page.h in include/linux/mm.h.

2008-07-24hugetlb: modular state for hugetlb page sizeAndi Kleen
The goal of this patchset is to support multiple hugetlb page sizes. This is achieved by introducing a new struct hstate structure, which encapsulates the important hugetlb state and constants (eg. huge page size, number of huge pages currently allocated, etc). The hstate structure is then passed around the code which requires these fields, they will do the right thing regardless of the exact hstate they are operating on. This patch adds the hstate structure, with a single global instance of it (default_hstate), and does the basic work of converting hugetlb to use the hstate. Future patches will add more hstate structures to allow for different hugetlbfs mounts to have different page sizes.

2008-07-22sparc64: Fix lockdep issues in LDC protocol layer.David S. Miller
We're calling request_irq() with a IRQs disabled. No straightforward fix exists because we want to enable these IRQs and setup state atomically before getting into the IRQ handler the first time. What happens now is that we mark the VIRQ to not be automatically enabled by request_irq(). Then we make explicit enable_irq() calls when we grab the LDC channel. This way we don't need to call request_irq() illegally under the LDC channel lock any more. Bump LDC version and release date. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2008-07-21sysdev: Pass the attribute to the low level sysdev show/store functionAndi Kleen
This allow to dynamically generate attributes and share show/store functions between attributes. Right now most attributes are generated by special macros and lots of duplicated code. With the attribute passed it's instead possible to attach some data to the attribute and then use that in shared low level functions to do different things. I need this for the dynamically generated bank attributes in the x86 machine check code, but it'll allow some further cleanups. I converted all users in tree to the new show/store prototype.

2008-07-18nohz: prevent tick stop outside of the idle loopThomas Gleixner
Jack Ren and Eric Miao tracked down the following long standing problem in the NOHZ code: scheduler switch to idle task enable interrupts Window starts here ----> interrupt happens (does not set NEED_RESCHED) irq_exit() stops the tick ----> interrupt happens (does set NEED_RESCHED) return from schedule() cpu_idle(): preempt_disable(); Window ends here The interrupts can happen at any point inside the race window. The first interrupt stops the tick, the second one causes the scheduler to rerun and switch away from idle again and we end up with the tick disabled. The fact that it needs two interrupts where the first one does not set NEED_RESCHED and the second one does made the bug obscure and extremly hard to reproduce and analyse. Kudos to Jack and Eric. Solution: Limit the NOHZ functionality to the idle loop to make sure that we can not run into such a situation ever again. cpu_idle() { preempt_disable(); while(1) { tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick(1); <- tell NOHZ code that we are in the idle loop while (!need_resched()) halt(); tick_nohz_restart_sched_tick(); <- disables NOHZ mode preempt_enable_no_resched(); schedule(); preempt_disable(); } } In hindsight we should have done this forever, but ... /me grabs a large brown paperbag.

2008-07-17sparc64: Remove 4MB and 512K base page size options.David S. Miller
Adrian Bunk reported that enabling 4MB page size breaks the build. The problem is that MAX_ORDER combined with the page shift exceeds the SECTION_SIZE_BITS we use in asm-sparc64/sparsemem.h There are several ways I suppose we could work around this. For one we could define a CONFIG_FORCE_MAX_ZONEORDER to decrease MAX_ORDER in these higher page size cases. But I also know that these page size cases are broken wrt. TLB miss handling especially on pre-hypervisor systems, and there isn't an easy way to fix that. These options were meant to be fun experimental hacks anyways, and only 8K and 64K make any sense to support. So remove 512K and 4M base page size support. Of course, we still support these page sizes for huge pages. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2008-06-26Add generic helpers for arch IPI function callsJens Axboe
This adds kernel/smp.c which contains helpers for IPI function calls. In addition to supporting the existing smp_call_function() in a more efficient manner, it also adds a more scalable variant called smp_call_function_single() for calling a given function on a single CPU only. The core of this is based on the x86-64 patch from Nick Piggin, lots of changes since then. "Alan D. Brunelle" <Alan.Brunelle@hp.com> has contributed lots of fixes and suggestions as well. Also thanks to Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com> for reviewing RCU usage and getting rid of the data allocation fallback deadlock.

2008-06-23ftrace: store mcount address in rec->ipAbhishek Sagar
Record the address of the mcount call-site. Currently all archs except sparc64 record the address of the instruction following the mcount call-site. Some general cleanups are entailed. Storing mcount addresses in rec->ip enables looking them up in the kprobe hash table later on to check if they're kprobe'd.

2008-05-23ftrace: add have dynamic ftrace config for archsSteven Rostedt
Now that ftrace is being ported to other architectures, it has become apparent that DYNAMIC_FTRACE is dependent on whether or not that architecture implements dynamic ftrace. FTRACE itself may be ported to an architecture without porting dynamic ftrace. This patch adds HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE to allow architectures to port ftrace without having to also port the dynamic aspect as well.

2008-05-21sparc64: Fix stack tracing through trap frames.David S. Miller
The offset to the pt_regs area was wrong, so we weren't looking at the right location for the magic cookie. A trap frame is composed of a "struct sparc_stackf" then a "struct pt_regs", the code was using "struct reg_window" instead of "struct sparc_stackf". Signed-off-by: David S.

2008-05-21sparc64: Fix kernel thread stack termination.David S. Miller
Because of the silly way I set up the initial stack for new kernel threads, there is a loop at the top of the stack. To fix this, properly add another stack frame that is copied from the parent and terminate it in the child by setting the frame pointer in that frame to zero. Signed-off-by: David S.

2008-05-20sparc64: Add global register dumping facility.David S. Miller
When a cpu really is stuck in the kernel, it can be often impossible to figure out which cpu is stuck where. The worst case is when the stuck cpu has interrupts disabled. Therefore, implement a global cpu state capture that uses SMP message interrupts which are not disabled by the normal IRQ enable/disable APIs of the kernel. As long as we can get a sysrq 'y' to the kernel, we can get a dump. Even if the console interrupt cpu is wedged, we can trigger it from userspace using /proc/sysrq-trigger The output is made compact so that this facility is more useful on high cpu count systems, which is where this facility will likely find itself the most useful :) Signed-off-by: David S.
