2009-06-15x86: Add NMI types for kmap_atomic, fixPeter Zijlstra
I just realized this has a kmap_atomic bug in... The below would fix it - but it's complicating this code some more. Alternatively I would have to introduce something like pte_offset_map_irq() which would make the irq/nmi detection and leave the regular code paths alone, however that would mean either duplicating the gup_fast() pagewalk or passing down a pte function pointer, which would only duplicate the gup_pte_range() bit, neither is really attractive ...

2009-06-15perf_counter: Make set_perf_counter_pending() declaration commonPaul Mackerras
At present, every architecture that supports perf_counters has to declare set_perf_counter_pending() in its arch-specific headers. This consolidates the declarations into a single declaration in one common place, include/linux/perf_counter.h. On powerpc, we continue to provide a static inline definition of set_perf_counter_pending() in the powerpc hw_irq.h. Also, this removes from the x86 perf_counter.h the unused null definitions of {test,clear}_perf_counter_pending.

2009-06-15perf_counter: x86: Fix call-chain support to use NMI-safe methodsPeter Zijlstra
__copy_from_user_inatomic() isn't NMI safe in that it can trigger the page fault handler which is another trap and its return path invokes IRET which will also close the NMI context. Therefore use a GUP based approach to copy the stack frames over. We tried an alternative solution as well: we used a forward ported version of Mathieu Desnoyers's "NMI safe INT3 and Page Fault" patch that modifies the exception return path to use an open-coded IRET with explicit stack unrolling and TF checking. This didnt work as it interacted with faulting user-space instructions, causing them not to restart properly, which corrupts user-space registers. Solving that would probably involve disassembling those instructions and backtracing the RIP. But even without that, the code was deemed rather complex to the already non-trivial x86 entry assembly code, so instead we went for this GUP based method that does a software-walk of the pagetables.

2009-06-15perf_counter, x86: Fix kernel-space call-chainsIngo Molnar
Kernel-space call-chains were trimmed at the first entry because we never processed anything beyond the first stack context. Allow the backtrace to jump from NMI to IRQ stack then to task stack and finally user-space stack. Also calculate the stack and bp variables correctly so that the stack walker does not exit early. We can get deep traces as a result, visible in perf report -D output: 0x32af0 [0xe0]: PERF_EVENT (IP, 5): 15134: 0xffffffff815225fd period: 1 ... chain: u:2, k:22, nr:24 ..... 0: 0xffffffff815225fd ..... 1: 0xffffffff810ac51c ..... 2: 0xffffffff81018e29 ..... 3: 0xffffffff81523939 ..... 4: 0xffffffff81524b8f ..... 5: 0xffffffff81524bd9 ..... 6: 0xffffffff8105e498 ..... 7: 0xffffffff8152315a ..... 8: 0xffffffff81522c3a ..... 9: 0xffffffff810d9b74 ..... 10: 0xffffffff810dbeec ..... 11: 0xffffffff810dc3fb This is a 22-entries kernel-space chain.

2009-06-12PM core: rename suspend and resume functionsAlan Stern
This patch (as1241) renames a bunch of functions in the PM core. Rather than go through a boring list of name changes, suffice it to say that in the end we have a bunch of pairs of functions: device_resume_noirq dpm_resume_noirq device_resume dpm_resume device_complete dpm_complete device_suspend_noirq dpm_suspend_noirq device_suspend dpm_suspend device_prepare dpm_prepare in which device_X does the X operation on a single device and dpm_X invokes device_X for all devices in the dpm_list. In addition, the old dpm_power_up and device_resume_noirq have been combined into a single function (dpm_resume_noirq). Lastly, dpm_suspend_start and dpm_resume_end are the renamed versions of the former top-level device_suspend and device_resume routines.

2009-06-12PM: Rename device_power_down/up()Magnus Damm
Rename the functions performing "_noirq" dev_pm_ops operations from device_power_down() and device_power_up() to device_suspend_noirq() and device_resume_noirq(). The new function names are chosen to show that the functions are responsible for calling the _noirq() versions to finalize the suspend/resume operation. The current function names do not perform power down/up anymore so the names may be misleading. Global function renames: - device_power_down() -> device_suspend_noirq() - device_power_up() -> device_resume_noirq() Static function renames: - suspend_device_noirq() -> __device_suspend_noirq() - resume_device_noirq() -> __device_resume_noirq() Signed-off-by: Magnus Damm <damm@igel.co.jp> Acked-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de> Acked-by: Len Brown <lenb@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

2009-06-12lguest: optimize by coding restore_flags and irq_enable in assembler.Rusty Russell
The downside of the last patch which made restore_flags and irq_enable check interrupts is that they are now too big to be patched directly into the callsites, so the C versions are always used. But the C versions go via PV_CALLEE_SAVE_REGS_THUNK which saves all the registers. In fact, we don't need any registers in the fast path, so we can do better than this if we actually code them in assembler. The results are in the noise, but since it's about the same amount of code, it's worth applying. 1GB Guest->Host: input(suppressed),output(suppressed) Before: Seconds: 0:16.53 Packets: 377268,753673 Interrupts: 22461,24297 Notifications: 1(5245),21303(732370) Net IRQs triggered: 377023(245),42578(711095) After: Seconds: 0:16.48 Packets: 377289,753673 Interrupts: 22281,24465 Notifications: 1(5245),21296(732377) Net IRQs triggered: 377060(229),42564(711109) Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
2009-06-12lguest: improve interrupt handling, speed up stream networkingRusty Russell
lguest never checked for pending interrupts when enabling interrupts, and things still worked. However, it makes a significant difference to TCP performance, so it's time we fixed it by introducing a pending_irq flag and checking it on irq_restore and irq_enable. These two routines are now too big to patch into the 8/10 bytes patch space, so we drop that code. Note: The high latency on interrupt delivery had a very curious effect: once everything else was optimized, networking without GSO was faster than networking with GSO, since more interrupts were sent and hence a greater chance of one getting through to the Guest! Note2: (Almost) Closing the same loophole for iret doesn't have any measurable effect, so I'm leaving that patch for the moment.

2009-06-12module: trim exception table on init free.Rusty Russell
It's theoretically possible that there are exception table entries which point into the (freed) init text of modules. These could cause future problems if other modules get loaded into that memory and cause an exception as we'd see the wrong fixup. The only case I know of is kvm-intel.ko (when CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE=n). Amerigo fixed this long-standing FIXME in the x86 version, but this patch is more general. This implements trim_init_extable(); most archs are simple since they use the standard lib/extable.c sort code. Alpha and IA64 use relative addresses in their fixups, so thier trimming is a slight variation. Sparc32 is unique; it doesn't seem to define ARCH_HAS_SORT_EXTABLE, yet it defines its own sort_extable() which overrides the one in lib. It doesn't sort, so we have to mark deleted entries instead of actually trimming them.
