2008-07-24hugetlb: guarantee that COW faults for a process that called ↵Mel Gorman
mmap(MAP_PRIVATE) on hugetlbfs will succeed After patch 2 in this series, a process that successfully calls mmap() for a MAP_PRIVATE mapping will be guaranteed to successfully fault until a process calls fork(). At that point, the next write fault from the parent could fail due to COW if the child still has a reference. We only reserve pages for the parent but a copy must be made to avoid leaking data from the parent to the child after fork(). Reserves could be taken for both parent and child at fork time to guarantee faults but if the mapping is large it is highly likely we will not have sufficient pages for the reservation, and it is common to fork only to exec() immediatly after. A failure here would be very undesirable. Note that the current behaviour of mainline with MAP_PRIVATE pages is pretty bad. The following situation is allowed to occur today. 1. Process calls mmap(MAP_PRIVATE) 2. Process calls mlock() to fault all pages and makes sure it succeeds 3. Process forks() 4. Process writes to MAP_PRIVATE mapping while child still exists 5. If the COW fails at this point, the process gets SIGKILLed even though it had taken care to ensure the pages existed This patch improves the situation by guaranteeing the reliability of the process that successfully calls mmap(). When the parent performs COW, it will try to satisfy the allocation without using reserves. If that fails the parent will steal the page leaving any children without a page. Faults from the child after that point will result in failure. If the child COW happens first, an attempt will be made to allocate the page without reserves and the child will get SIGKILLed on failure. To summarise the new behaviour: 1. If the original mapper performs COW on a private mapping with multiple references, it will attempt to allocate a hugepage from the pool or the buddy allocator without using the existing reserves. On fail, VMAs mapping the same area are traversed and the page being COW'd is unmapped where found. It will then steal the original page as the last mapper in the normal way. 2. The VMAs the pages were unmapped from are flagged to note that pages with data no longer exist. Future no-page faults on those VMAs will terminate the process as otherwise it would appear that data was corrupted. A warning is printed to the console that this situation occured. 2. If the child performs COW first, it will attempt to satisfy the COW from the pool if there are enough pages or via the buddy allocator if overcommit is allowed and the buddy allocator can satisfy the request. If it fails, the child will be killed. If the pool is large enough, existing applications will not notice that the reserves were a factor. Existing applications depending on the no-reserves been set are unlikely to exist as for much of the history of hugetlbfs, pages were prefaulted at mmap(), allocating the pages at that point or failing the mmap().

2008-07-24hugetlb: reserve huge pages for reliable MAP_PRIVATE hugetlbfs mappings ↵Mel Gorman
until fork() This patch reserves huge pages at mmap() time for MAP_PRIVATE mappings in a similar manner to the reservations taken for MAP_SHARED mappings. The reserve count is accounted both globally and on a per-VMA basis for private mappings. This guarantees that a process that successfully calls mmap() will successfully fault all pages in the future unless fork() is called. The characteristics of private mappings of hugetlbfs files behaviour after this patch are; 1. The process calling mmap() is guaranteed to succeed all future faults until it forks(). 2. On fork(), the parent may die due to SIGKILL on writes to the private mapping if enough pages are not available for the COW. For reasonably reliable behaviour in the face of a small huge page pool, children of hugepage-aware processes should not reference the mappings; such as might occur when fork()ing to exec(). 3. On fork(), the child VMAs inherit no reserves. Reads on pages already faulted by the parent will succeed. Successful writes will depend on enough huge pages being free in the pool. 4. Quotas of the hugetlbfs mount are checked at reserve time for the mapper and at fault time otherwise. Before this patch, all reads or writes in the child potentially needs page allocations that can later lead to the death of the parent. This applies to reads and writes of uninstantiated pages as well as COW. After the patch it is only a write to an instantiated page that causes problems.

2008-07-24page-flags: record page flag overlays explicitlyAndy Whitcroft
With the recent page flag reorganisation we have a single enum which defines the valid page flags and their values, nice and clear. However there are a number of bits which are overloaded by different subsystems. Firstly there is PG_owner_priv_1 which is used by filesystems and by XEN. Secondly both SLOB and SLUB use a couple of extra page bits to manage internal state for pages they own; both overlay other bits. All of these "aliases" are scattered about the source making it very hard for a reader to know if the bits are safe to rely on in all contexts; confusion here is bad. As we now have a single place where the bits are clearly assigned it makes sense to clarify the reuse of bits by making the aliases explicit and visible with the original bit assignments. This patch creates explicit aliases within the enum itself for the overloaded bits, creates standard bit accessors PageFoo etc. and uses those throughout. This version pulls the bit manipulation out to standard named page bit accessors as suggested by Christoph, it retains the explicit mapping to the overlayed bits. A fusion of both ideas. This has been SLUB and SLOB have been compile tested on x86_64 only, and SLUB boot tested. If people feel this is worth doing then I can run a fuller set of testing. This patch: Some page flags are used for more than one purpose, for example PG_owner_priv_1. Currently there are individual accessors for each user, each built using the common flag name far away from the bit definitions. This makes it hard to see all possible uses of these bits. Now that we have a single enum to generate the bit orders it makes sense to express overlays in the same place. So create per use aliases for this bit in the main page-flags enum and use those in the accessors.

2008-07-24fix soft lock up at NFS mount via per-SB LRU-list of unused dentriesKentaro Makita
[Summary] Split LRU-list of unused dentries to one per superblock to avoid soft lock up during NFS mounts and remounting of any filesystem. Previously I posted here: http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/3/5/590 [Descriptions] - background dentry_unused is a list of dentries which are not referenced. dentry_unused grows up when references on directories or files are released. This list can be very long if there is huge free memory. - the problem When shrink_dcache_sb() is called, it scans all dentry_unused linearly under spin_lock(), and if dentry->d_sb is differnt from given superblock, scan next dentry. This scan costs very much if there are many entries, and very ineffective if there are many superblocks. IOW, When we need to shrink unused dentries on one dentry, but scans unused dentries on all superblocks in the system. For example, we scan 500 dentries to unmount a filesystem, but scans 1,000,000 or more unused dentries on other superblocks. In our case , At mounting NFS*, shrink_dcache_sb() is called to shrink unused dentries on NFS, but scans 100,000,000 unused dentries on superblocks in the system such as local ext3 filesystems. I hear NFS mounting took 1 min on some system in use. * : NFS uses virtual filesystem in rpc layer, so NFS is affected by this problem. 100,000,000 is possible number on large systems. Per-superblock LRU of unused dentried can reduce the cost in reasonable manner. - How to fix I found this problem is solved by David Chinner's "Per-superblock unused dentry LRU lists V3"(1), so I rebase it and add some fix to reclaim with fairness, which is in Andrew Morton's comments(2). 1) http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/5/25/318 2) http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/5/25/320 Split LRU-list of unused dentries to each superblocks. Then, NFS mounting will check dentries under a superblock instead of all. But this spliting will break LRU of dentry-unused. So, I've attempted to make reclaim unused dentrins with fairness by calculate number of dentries to scan on this sb based on following way number of dentries to scan on this sb = count * (number of dentries on this sb / number of dentries in the machine) - ToDo - I have to measuring performance number and do stress tests. - When unmount occurs during prune_dcache(), scanning on same superblock, It is unable to reach next superblock because it is gone away. We restart scannig superblock from first one, it causes unfairness of reclaim unused dentries on first superblock. But I think this happens very rarely. - Test Results Result on 6GB boxes with excessive unused dentries.

2008-07-24powerpc ioremap_protBenjamin Herrenschmidt
This adds ioremap_prot and pte_pgprot() so that one can extract protection bits from a PTE and use them to ioremap_prot() (in order to support ptrace of VM_IO | VM_PFNMAP as per Rik's patch). This moves a couple of flag checks around in the ioremap implementations of arch/powerpc. There's a side effect of allowing non-cacheable and non-guarded mappings on ppc32 which before would always have _PAGE_GUARDED set whenever _PAGE_NO_CACHE is. (standard ioremap will still set _PAGE_GUARDED, but ioremap_prot will be capable of setting such a non guarded mapping).

2008-07-23ide: push pc callback pointer into the ide_drive_t structureBorislav Petkov
Refrain from carrying the callback ptr with every packet command since the callback function is only one anyways. ide_drive_t is probably not the most suitable place for it right now but is the more sane solution. Besides, these structs are going to be reorganized anyways during the generic ide rewrite.

2008-07-23ide: filter out "default" transfer mode values in set_xfer_rate()Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz
* Filter out "default" transfer mode values (0x00 - default PIO mode, 0x01 - default PIO mode w/ IORDY disabled) in write handler for obsoleted /proc/ide/hd?/settings:current_speed setting. Allowing "default" transfer mode values is a dangerous thing to do as we don't support programming controller to the "default" transfer mode and devices often use different values for the default and maximum PIO mode (i.e. PIO2 default and PIO4 maximum) so the controller will stay programmed for higher PIO mode while device will use the lower PIO mode. There is no functionality loss as by using special IOCTLs device can still be programmed to "default" transfer modes (it is only useful for debugging/testing purposes anyway). * Remove no longer needed IDE_HFLAG_ABUSE_SET_DMA_MODE host flag, it was previously used by few host drivers to program the controller to PIO0 timings for "default" transfer mode == 0x01 (although some host drivers would program invalid PIO timings instead). * Cleanup ide_set_xfer_rate() and add BUG_ON().
