2006-01-18[PATCH] EDAC: core EDAC support codeAlan Cox
This is a subset of the bluesmoke project core code, stripped of the NMI work which isn't ready to merge and some of the "interesting" proc functionality that needs reworking or just has no place in kernel. It requires no core kernel changes except the added scrub functions already posted. The goal is to merge further functionality only after the core code is accepted and proven in the base kernel, and only at the point the upstream extras are really ready to merge. From: doug thompson <norsk5@xmission.com> This converts EDAC to sysfs and is the final chunk neccessary before EDAC has a stable user space API and can be considered for submission into the base kernel.

2006-01-18[PATCH] EDAC: atomic scrub operationsAlan Cox
EDAC requires a way to scrub memory if an ECC error is found and the chipset does not do the work automatically. That means rewriting memory locations atomically with respect to all CPUs _and_ bus masters. That means we can't use atomic_add(foo, 0) as it gets optimised for non-SMP This adds a function to include/asm-foo/atomic.h for the platforms currently supported which implements a scrub of a mapped block. It also adjusts a few other files include order where atomic.h is included before types.h as this now causes an error as atomic_scrub uses u32.

2006-01-18[PATCH] Add pselect/ppoll system call implementationDavid Woodhouse
The following implementation of ppoll() and pselect() system calls depends on the architecture providing a TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK flag in the thread_info. These system calls have to change the signal mask during their operation, and signal handlers must be invoked using the new, temporary signal mask. The old signal mask must be restored either upon successful exit from the system call, or upon returning from the invoked signal handler if the system call is interrupted. We can't simply restore the original signal mask and return to userspace, since the restored signal mask may actually block the signal which interrupted the system call. The TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK flag deals with this by causing the syscall exit path to trap into do_signal() just as TIF_SIGPENDING does, and by causing do_signal() to use the saved signal mask instead of the current signal mask when setting up the stack frame for the signal handler -- or by causing do_signal() to simply restore the saved signal mask in the case where there is no handler to be invoked. The first patch implements the sys_pselect() and sys_ppoll() system calls, which are present only if TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK is defined. That #ifdef should go away in time when all architectures have implemented it. The second patch implements TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK for the PowerPC kernel (in the -mm tree), and the third patch then removes the arch-specific implementations of sys_rt_sigsuspend() and replaces them with generic versions using the same trick. The fourth and fifth patches, provided by David Howells, implement TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK for FR-V and i386 respectively, and the sixth patch adds the syscalls to the i386 syscall table. This patch: Add the pselect() and ppoll() system calls, providing core routines usable by the original select() and poll() system calls and also the new calls (with their semantics w.r.t timeouts).

(2) Invokes it over to do_signal() when TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK is set. (3) Makes do_signal() support TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK, using the signal mask saved in current->saved_sigmask. (4) Discards sys_rt_sigsuspend() from the arch, using the generic one instead. (5) Makes sys_sigsuspend() save the signal mask and set TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK rather than attempting to fudge the return registers. (6) Makes sys_sigsuspend() return -ERESTARTNOHAND rather than looping intrinsically. (7) Makes setup_frame(), setup_rt_frame() and handle_signal() return 0 or -EFAULT rather than true/false to be consistent with the rest of the kernel. Due to the fact do_signal() is then only called from one place: (8) Makes do_signal() no longer have a return value is it was just being ignored; force_sig() takes care of this. (9) Discards the old sigmask argument to do_signal() as it's no longer necessary. (10) Makes do_signal() static. (11) Marks the second argument to do_notify_resume() as unused. The unused argument should remain in the middle as the arguments are passed in as registers, and the ordering is specific in entry.S Given the way do_signal() is now no longer called from sys_{,rt_}sigsuspend(), they no longer need access to the exception frame, and so can just take arguments normally.

2006-01-18[PATCH] vfs: *at functions: coreUlrich Drepper
Here is a series of patches which introduce in total 13 new system calls which take a file descriptor/filename pair instead of a single file name. These functions, openat etc, have been discussed on numerous occasions. They are needed to implement race-free filesystem traversal, they are necessary to implement a virtual per-thread current working directory (think multi-threaded backup software), etc. We have in glibc today implementations of the interfaces which use the /proc/self/fd magic. But this code is rather expensive. Here are some results (similar to what Jim Meyering posted before). The test creates a deep directory hierarchy on a tmpfs filesystem. Then rm -fr is used to remove all directories. Without syscall support I get this: real 0m31.921s user 0m0.688s sys 0m31.234s With syscall support the results are much better: real 0m20.699s user 0m0.536s sys 0m20.149s The interfaces are for obvious reasons currently not much used. But they'll be used. coreutils (and Jeff's posixutils) are already using them. Furthermore, code like ftw/fts in libc (maybe even glob) will also start using them. I expect a patch to make follow soon. Every program which is walking the filesystem tree will benefit.

2006-01-18[PATCH] NUMA policies in the slab allocator V2Christoph Lameter
This patch fixes a regression in 2.6.14 against 2.6.13 that causes an imbalance in memory allocation during bootup. The slab allocator in 2.6.13 is not numa aware and simply calls alloc_pages(). This means that memory policies may control the behavior of alloc_pages(). During bootup the memory policy is set to MPOL_INTERLEAVE resulting in the spreading out of allocations during bootup over all available nodes. The slab allocator in 2.6.13 has only a single list of slab pages. As a result the per cpu slab cache and the spinlock controlled page lists may contain slab entries from off node memory. The slab allocator in 2.6.13 makes no effort to discern the locality of an entry on its lists. The NUMA aware slab allocator in 2.6.14 controls locality of the slab pages explicitly by calling alloc_pages_node(). The NUMA slab allocator manages slab entries by having lists of available slab pages for each node. The per cpu slab cache can only contain slab entries associated with the node local to the processor. This guarantees that the default allocation mode of the slab allocator always assigns local memory if available. Setting MPOL_INTERLEAVE as a default policy during bootup has no effect anymore. In 2.6.14 all node unspecific slab allocations are performed on the boot processor. This means that most of key data structures are allocated on one node. Most processors will have to refer to these structures making the boot node a potential bottleneck. This may reduce performance and cause unnecessary memory pressure on the boot node. This patch implements NUMA policies in the slab layer. There is the need of explicit application of NUMA memory policies by the slab allcator itself since the NUMA slab allocator does no longer let the page_allocator control locality. The check for policies is made directly at the beginning of __cache_alloc using current->mempolicy. The memory policy is already frequently checked by the page allocator (alloc_page_vma() and alloc_page_current()). So it is highly likely that the cacheline is present. For MPOL_INTERLEAVE kmalloc() will spread out each request to one node after another so that an equal distribution of allocations can be obtained during bootup. It is not possible to push the policy check to lower layers of the NUMA slab allocator since the per cpu caches are now only containing slab entries from the current node. If the policy says that the local node is not to be preferred or forbidden then there is no point in checking the slab cache or local list of slab pages. The allocation better be directed immediately to the lists containing slab entries for the allowed set of nodes. This way of applying policy also fixes another strange behavior in 2.6.13. alloc_pages() is controlled by the memory allocation policy of the current process. It could therefore be that one process is running with MPOL_INTERLEAVE and would f.e. obtain a new page following that policy since no slab entries are in the lists anymore. A page can typically be used for multiple slab entries but lets say that the current process is only using one. The other entries are then added to the slab lists. These are now non local entries in the slab lists despite of the possible availability of local pages that would provide faster access and increase the performance of the application. Another process without MPOL_INTERLEAVE may now run and expect a local slab entry from kmalloc(). However, there are still these free slab entries from the off node page obtained from the other process via MPOL_INTERLEAVE in the cache. The process will then get an off node slab entry although other slab entries may be available that are local to that process. This means that the policy if one process may contaminate the locality of the slab caches for other processes. This patch in effect insures that a per process policy is followed for the allocation of slab entries and that there cannot be a memory policy influence from one process to another. A process with default policy will always get a local slab entry if one is available. And the process using memory policies will get its memory arranged as requested. Off-node slab allocation will require the use of spinlocks and will make the use of per cpu caches not possible. A process using memory policies to redirect allocations offnode will have to cope with additional lock overhead in addition to the latency added by the need to access a remote slab entry. Changes V1->V2 - Remove #ifdef CONFIG_NUMA by moving forward declaration into prior #ifdef CONFIG_NUMA section. - Give the function determining the node number to use a saner name.

2006-01-18[PATCH] Zone reclaim: Reclaim logicChristoph Lameter
Some bits for zone reclaim exists in 2.6.15 but they are not usable. This patch fixes them up, removes unused code and makes zone reclaim usable. Zone reclaim allows the reclaiming of pages from a zone if the number of free pages falls below the watermarks even if other zones still have enough pages available. Zone reclaim is of particular importance for NUMA machines. It can be more beneficial to reclaim a page than taking the performance penalties that come with allocating a page on a remote zone. Zone reclaim is enabled if the maximum distance to another node is higher than RECLAIM_DISTANCE, which may be defined by an arch. By default RECLAIM_DISTANCE is 20. 20 is the distance to another node in the same component (enclosure or motherboard) on IA64. The meaning of the NUMA distance information seems to vary by arch. If zone reclaim is not successful then no further reclaim attempts will occur for a certain time period (ZONE_RECLAIM_INTERVAL). This patch was discussed before.

Some subsystems, such as PPP, can send negative values here. It just happened to work correctly on 32-bit with an unsigned value, but on 64-bit this explodes. Figured out by Paul Mackerras based upon several PPP crash reports. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2006-01-16[PATCH] x86_64: Fix VSMP buildRavikiran G Thirumalai
Patch fixes a build problem with CONFIG_X86_VSMP. The vSMP bits probably gathered some fuzz on its way to mainline, and safe_halt() which was outside the #endif (CONFIG_X86_VSMP) somehow got inside the !CONFIG_X86_VSMP condition, hence being undefined and breaking CONFIG_X86_VSMP builds. Patch takes safe_halt() and halt() macros out of the #endif Signed-off-by: Ravikiran Thirumalai <kiran@scalex86.org> Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2006-01-16[PATCH] x86_64: add __meminit for memory hotplugMatt Tolentino
Add __meminit to the __init lineup to ensure functions default to __init when memory hotplug is not enabled. Replace __devinit with __meminit on functions that were changed when the memory hotplug code was introduced.
