Version 2.06 of the POWER ISA introduced enhanced touch instructions,
allowing us to specify a number of attributes including the length of
a stream.
This patch adds a software stream for both loads and stores in the
POWER7 copy_tofrom_user loop. Since the setup is quite complicated
and we have to use an eieio to ensure correct ordering of the "GO"
command we only do this for copies above 4kB.
To quantify any performance improvements we need a working set
bigger than the caches so we operate on a 1GB file:
# dd if=/dev/zero of=/tmp/foo bs=1M count=1024
And we compare how fast we can read the file:
# dd if=/tmp/foo of=/dev/null bs=1M
before: 7.7 GB/s
after: 9.6 GB/s
A 25% improvement.
The worst case for this patch will be a completely L1 cache contained
copy of just over 4kB. We can test this with the copy_to_user
testcase we used to tune copy_tofrom_user originally:
http://ozlabs.org/~anton/junkcode/copy_to_user.c
# time ./copy_to_user2 -l 4224 -i 10000000
before: 6.807 s
after: 6.946 s
A 2% slowdown, which seems reasonable considering our data is unlikely
to be completely L1 contained.

While creating the PCI root bus through function pci_create_root_bus()
of PCI core, it should have assigned the secondary bus number for the
newly created PCI root bus. Thus we needn't do the explicit assignment
for the secondary bus number again in pcibios_scan_phb().

Implement a POWER7 optimised copy_page using VMX and enhanced
prefetch instructions. We use enhanced prefetch hints to prefetch
both the load and store side. We copy a cacheline at a time and
fall back to regular loads and stores if we are unable to use VMX
(eg we are in an interrupt).
The following microbenchmark was used to assess the impact of
the patch:
http://ozlabs.org/~anton/junkcode/page_fault_file.c
We test MAP_PRIVATE page faults across a 1GB file, 100 times:
# time ./page_fault_file -p -l 1G -i 100
Before: 22.25s
After: 18.89s
17% faster

1) call_function.lock used in smp_call_function_many() is just to protect
call_function.queue and &data->refs, cpu_online_mask is outside of the
lock. And it's not necessary to protect cpu_online_mask,
because data->cpumask is pre-calculate and even if a cpu is brougt up
when calling arch_send_call_function_ipi_mask(), it's harmless because
validation test in generic_smp_call_function_interrupt() will take care
of it.
2) For cpu down issue, stop_machine() will guarantee that no concurrent
smp_call_fuction() is processing.

I noticed __clear_user high up in a profile of one of my RAID stress
tests. The testcase was doing a dd from /dev/zero which ends up
calling __clear_user.
__clear_user is basically a loop with a single 4 byte store which
is horribly slow. We can do much better by aligning the desination
and doing 32 bytes of 8 byte stores in a loop.
The following testcase was used to verify the patch:
http://ozlabs.org/~anton/junkcode/stress_clear_user.c
To show the improvement in performance I ran a dd from /dev/zero
to /dev/null on a POWER7 box:
Before:
# dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/null bs=1M count=10000
10485760000 bytes (10 GB) copied, 3.72379 s, 2.8 GB/s
After:
# time dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/null bs=1M count=10000
10485760000 bytes (10 GB) copied, 0.728318 s, 14.4 GB/s
Over 5x faster.

An upcoming release of firmware will add DDW extensions, in particular
an API to "reset" the DMA window to the original configuration (32-bit,
2GB in size). With that API available, we can safely remove the default
window, increasing the resources available to firmware for creation of
larger windows for the slot in question -- if we encounter an error, we
can use the new API to reset the state of the slot.
Further, this same release of firmware will make it a hard requirement
for OSes to release the existing window before any other windows will be
shown as available, to avoid conflicts in addressing between the two
windows.
In anticipation of these changes, always remove the default window
before we do any DDW manipulations.

For ftrace to use the patch_instruction code, it needs to check for
faults on write. Ftrace updates code all over the kernel, and we need to
know if code is updated or not due to protections that are placed on
some portions of the kernel. If ftrace does not detect a fault, it will
error later on, and it will be much more difficult to find the problem.
By changing patch_instruction() to detect faults, then ftrace will be
able to make use of it too.

commit 43220aa0f22cd3ce5b30246d50ccd696d119edea
md/raid5: fix a hang on device failure.
fixed a hang, but introduced a refcounting in-balance so
that if the presence of bad-blocks ever caused an rdev to
be 'blocked' we would increment the refcount on the rdev and
never decrement it.
So added the needed rdev_dec_pending when md_wait_for_blocked_rdev
is not called.

If a RAID5 has both a failed device and a device marked as
'WantReplacement', then we should preferentially replace the failed
device.
However the current code replaces whichever is found first.
So split into 2 loops, check fail failed/missing first, and only check
for WantReplacement if nothing is failed or missing.

If a RAID10 has an odd number of chunks - as might happen when there
are an odd number of devices - the last chunk has no pair and so is
not mirrored. We don't store data there, but when recovering the last
device in an array we retry to recover that last chunk from a
non-existent location. This results in an error, and the recovery
aborts.
When we get to that last chunk we should just stop - there is nothing
more to do anyway.
This bug has been present since the introduction of RAID10, so the
patch is appropriate for any -stable kernel.

The tree log stuff can have allocated space that we end up having split
across a bitmap and a real extent. The free space code does not deal with
this, it assumes that if it finds an extent or bitmap entry that the entire
range must fall within the entry it finds. This isn't necessarily the case,
so rework the remove function so it can handle this case properly. This
fixed two panics the user hit, first in the case where the space was
initially in a bitmap and then in an extent entry, and then the reverse
case. Thanks,

Miao pointed out there's a problem with mixing dio writes and buffered
reads. If the read happens between us invalidating the page range and
actually locking the extent we can bring in pages into page cache. Then
once the write finishes if somebody tries to read again it will just find
uptodate pages and we'll read stale data. So we need to lock the extent and
check for uptodate bits in the range. If there are uptodate bits we need to
unlock and invalidate again. This will keep this race from happening since
we will hold the extent locked until we create the ordered extent, and then
teh read side always waits for ordered extents. There was also a race in
how we updated i_size, previously we were relying on the generic DIO stuff
to adjust the i_size after the DIO had completed, but this happens outside
of the extent lock which means reads could come in and not see the updated
i_size. So instead move this work into where we create the extents, and
then this way the update ordered i_size stuff works properly in the endio
handlers. Thanks,

We have a bug report where the kernel hits a warning in the cpumask

WARNING: at include/linux/cpumask.h:107
Which is:
WARN_ON_ONCE(cpu >= nr_cpumask_bits);
The backtrace is:
cpu_cmd
cmds
xmon_core
xmon
die
xmon is iterating through 0 to NR_CPUS. I'm not sure why we are still
open coding this but iterating above nr_cpu_ids is definitely a bug.
This patch iterates through all possible cpus, in case we issue a
system reset and CPUs in an offline state call in.
Perhaps the old code was trying to handle CPUs that were in the
partition but were never started (eg kexec into a kernel with an
nr_cpus= boot option). They are going to die way before we get into
xmon since we haven't set any kernel state up for them.

Pull two ARM fixes from Russell King:
"It's been fairly quiet with the fixes. Just two this time. One fixes
a long standing problem with KALLSYMS needing an additional pass, and
the other sorts a problem with the vmalloc space interacting with
static IO mappings."
* 'fixes' of git://git.linaro.org/people/rmk/linux-arm:
ARM: 7438/1: fill possible PMD empty section gaps
ARM: 7428/1: Prevent KALLSYM size mismatch on ARM.
|
|
On ARM with the 2-level page table format, a PMD entry is represented by
two consecutive section entries covering 2MB of virtual space.
However, static mappings always were allowed to use separate 1MB section
entries. This means in practice that a static mapping may create half
populated PMDs via create_mapping().
Since commit 0536bdf33f (ARM: move iotable mappings within the vmalloc
region) those static mappings are located in the vmalloc area. We must
ensure no such half populated PMDs are accessible once vmalloc() or
ioremap() start looking at the vmalloc area for nearby free virtual
address ranges, or various things leading to a kernel crash will happen.

Currently only used when packet split mode is enabled with jumbo frames,
IP payload checksum (for fragmented UDP packets) is mutually exclusive with
receive hashing offload since the hardware uses the same space in the
receive descriptor for the hardware-provided packet checksum and the RSS
hash, respectively. Users currently must disable jumbos when receive
hashing offload is enabled, or vice versa, because of this incompatibility.
Since testing has shown that IP payload checksum does not provide any real
benefit, just remove it so that there is no longer a choice between jumbos
or receive hashing offload but not both as done in other Intel GbE drivers
(e.g. e1000, igb).
Also, add a missing check for IP checksum error reported by the hardware;
let the stack verify the checksum when this happens.

Basic suspend/resume is fixed by ensuring that the PGSR registers are
set correctly before sleep mode is entered. In particular four of the
active low resets need to be driven high while in sleep mode, otherwise
the unit resets itself instead of suspending. Another problem was that
the PCFR_GPROD bit is set by the HTC bootloader; this caused GPIO reset
(i.e. the reset button) to fail immediately after returning from sleep
mode.
