2016-06-14perf/x86/intel, watchdog: Switch NMI watchdog to ref cycles on x86Andi Kleen
The NMI watchdog uses either the fixed cycles or a generic cycles counter. This causes a lot of conflicts with users of the PMU who want to run a full group including the cycles fixed counter, for example the --topdown support recently added to perf stat. The code needs to fall back to not use groups, which can cause measurement inaccuracy due to multiplexing errors. This patch switches the NMI watchdog to use reference cycles on Intel systems. This is actually more accurate than cycles, because cycles can tick faster than the measured CPU Frequency due to Turbo mode. The ref cycles always tick at their frequency, or slower when the system is idling. That means the NMI watchdog can never expire too early, unlike with cycles. The reference cycles tick roughly at the frequency of the TSC, so the same period computation can be used.

2016-06-14sched/cputime: Fix prev steal time accouting during CPU hotplugWanpeng Li
Commit: e9532e69b8d1 ("sched/cputime: Fix steal time accounting vs. CPU hotplug") ... set rq->prev_* to 0 after a CPU hotplug comes back, in order to fix the case where (after CPU hotplug) steal time is smaller than rq->prev_steal_time. However, this should never happen. Steal time was only smaller because of the KVM-specific bug fixed by the previous patch. Worse, the previous patch triggers a bug on CPU hot-unplug/plug operation: because rq->prev_steal_time is cleared, all of the CPU's past steal time will be accounted again on hot-plug. Since the root cause has been fixed, we can just revert commit e9532e69b8d1.

Kasan causes the compiler to instrument C code and is used at runtime to detect accesses to memory that has been freed, or not yet allocated.

This will access whole pages in the slab cache that have both free and allocated areas, resulting in a large number of false positives from Kasan. Disable instrumentation of this file.

Some IRQ chips may be located in a power domain outside of the CPU subsystem and hence will require device specific runtime power management. In order to support such IRQ chips, add a pointer for a device structure to the irq_chip structure, and if this pointer is populated by the IRQ chip driver and CONFIG_PM is selected in the kernel configuration, then the pm_runtime_get/put APIs for this chip will be called when an IRQ is requested/freed, respectively.

2016-06-13irqdomain: Don't set type when mapping an IRQJon Hunter
Some IRQ chips, such as GPIO controllers or secondary level interrupt controllers, may require require additional runtime power management control to ensure they are accessible. For such IRQ chips, it makes sense to enable the IRQ chip when interrupts are requested and disabled them again once all interrupts have been freed. When mapping an IRQ, the IRQ type settings are read and then programmed. The mapping of the IRQ happens before the IRQ is requested and so the programming of the type settings occurs before the IRQ is requested. This is a problem for IRQ chips that require additional power management control because they may not be accessible yet. Therefore, when mapping the IRQ, don't program the type settings, just save them and then program these saved settings when the IRQ is requested (so long as if they are not overridden via the call to request the IRQ). Add a stub function for irq_domain_free_irqs() to avoid any compilation errors when CONFIG_IRQ_DOMAIN_HIERARCHY is not selected.

2016-06-13genirq: Look-up percpu trigger type if not specified by callerMarc Zyngier
As we now do for non-percpu interrupt, perform a lookup of the interrupt trigger if the user doesn't supply one. The difference here is that we can only do it at enable time (trigger configuration can be per-cpu as well). Signed-off-by: Marc Zyngier <marc.zyngier@arm.com>
2016-06-13genirq: Look-up trigger type if not specified by callerJon Hunter
For some devices the IRQ trigger type for a device is read from firmware, such as device-tree. The IRQ trigger type is typically read when the mapping for IRQ is created, which is before the IRQ is requested. Hence, the IRQ trigger type is programmed when mapping the IRQ and not when requesting the IRQ. Although this works for most cases, in order to support IRQ chips which require runtime power management, which may not be accessible prior to requesting the IRQ, it is desirable to look-up the IRQ trigger type when it is requested. Therefore, if the IRQ trigger type is not specified when __setup_irq() is called, look-up the saved IRQ trigger type. This will allow us to defer the programming of the trigger type from when the IRQ is mapped to when it is actually requested.

2016-06-13irqdomain: Fix handling of type settings for existing mappingsJon Hunter
When mapping an IRQ, it is possible that a mapping for the IRQ already exists. If mapping does exist then there are the following issues with regard to the handling of the IRQ type settings ... 1. If the domain is part of a hierarchy, then: a. We do not check that the type settings for the existing mapping match those of the new mapping. b. We do not check to see if the type settings have been programmed yet (and they might not have been) and so we may never set the type. 2. If the domain is NOT part of a hierarchy, we will overwrite the current type settings programmed if they are different from the previous mapping. Please note that irq_create_mapping() calls irq_find_mapping() to check if a mapping already exists. Although, it may be unlikely that the type settings for a shared interrupt would not match, nonetheless we should check for this. Therefore, to fix this check if a mapping exists (regardless of whether the domain is part of a hierarchy or not) and if it does then: 1. Return the IRQ number if the type settings match or are not specified. 2. Program the type settings and return the IRQ number if the type settings have not been programmed yet. 3. Otherwise if the type setting do not match, then print a warning and don't return the IRQ number. Furthermore, add a warning if the type return by irq_domain_translate() has bits outside the sense mask set and then clear these bits. If these bits are not cleared then this will cause the comparision of the type settings for an existing mapping to fail with that of the new mapping even if the sense bit themselves match. The reason being is that the existing type settings are read by calling irq_get_trigger_type() which will clear any bits outside the sense mask. This will allow us to detect irqchips that are not correctly clearing these bits and fix them.

2016-06-08futex: Calculate the futex key based on a tail page for file-based futexesMel Gorman
Mike Galbraith reported that the LTP test case futex_wake04 was broken by commit 65d8fc777f6d ("futex: Remove requirement for lock_page() in get_futex_key()"). This test case uses futexes backed by hugetlbfs pages and so there is an associated inode with a futex stored on such pages. The problem is that the key is being calculated based on the head page index of the hugetlbfs page and not the tail page. Prior to the optimisation, the page lock was used to stabilise mappings and pin the inode is file-backed which is overkill. If the page was a compound page, the head page was automatically looked up as part of the page lock operation but the tail page index was used to calculate the futex key. After the optimisation, the compound head is looked up early and the page lock is only relied upon to identify truncated pages, special pages or a shmem page moving to swapcache. The head page is looked up because without the page lock, special care has to be taken to pin the inode correctly. However, the tail page is still required to calculate the futex key so this patch records the tail page. On vanilla 4.6, the output of the test case is; futex_wake04 0 TINFO : Hugepagesize 2097152 futex_wake04 1 TFAIL : futex_wake04.c:126: Bug: wait_thread2 did not wake after 30 secs.

2016-06-08locking/rwsem: Improve reader wakeup codeWaiman Long
In __rwsem_do_wake(), the reader wakeup code will assume a writer has stolen the lock if the active reader/writer count is not 0. However, this is not as reliable an indicator as the original "< RWSEM_WAITING_BIAS" check. If another reader is present, the code will still break out and exit even if the writer is gone. This patch changes it to check the same "< RWSEM_WAITING_BIAS" condition to reduce the chance of false positive.

2016-06-08locking/rwsem: Protect all writes to owner by WRITE_ONCE()Waiman Long
Without using WRITE_ONCE(), the compiler can potentially break a write into multiple smaller ones (store tearing). So a read from the same data by another task concurrently may return a partial result. This can result in a kernel crash if the data is a memory address that is being dereferenced. This patch changes all write to rwsem->owner to use WRITE_ONCE() to make sure that store tearing will not happen. READ_ONCE() may not be needed for rwsem->owner as long as the value is only used for comparison and not dereferencing.

2016-06-08locking/rwsem: Add reader-owned state to the owner fieldWaiman Long
Currently, it is not possible to determine for sure if a reader owns a rwsem by looking at the content of the rwsem data structure. This patch adds a new state RWSEM_READER_OWNED to the owner field to indicate that readers currently own the lock. This enables us to address the following 2 issues in the rwsem optimistic spinning code: 1) rwsem_can_spin_on_owner() will disallow optimistic spinning if the owner field is NULL which can mean either the readers own the lock or the owning writer hasn't set the owner field yet. In the latter case, we miss the chance to do optimistic spinning. 2) While a writer is waiting in the OSQ and a reader takes the lock, the writer will continue to spin when out of the OSQ in the main rwsem_optimistic_spin() loop as the owner field is NULL wasting CPU cycles if some of readers are sleeping. Adding the new state will allow optimistic spinning to go forward as long as the owner field is not RWSEM_READER_OWNED and the owner is running, if set, but stop immediately when that state has been reached. On a 4-socket Haswell machine running on a 4.6-rc1 based kernel, the fio test with multithreaded randrw and randwrite tests on the same file on a XFS partition on top of a NVDIMM were run, the aggregated bandwidths before and after the patch were as follows: Test BW before patch BW after patch % change ---- --------------- -------------- -------- randrw 988 MB/s 1192 MB/s +21% randwrite 1513 MB/s 1623 MB/s +7.3% The perf profile of the rwsem_down_write_failed() function in randrw before and after the patch were: 19.95% 5.88% fio [kernel.vmlinux] [k] rwsem_down_write_failed 14.20% 1.52% fio [kernel.vmlinux] [k] rwsem_down_write_failed The actual CPU cycles spend in rwsem_down_write_failed() dropped from 5.88% to 1.52% after the patch. The xfstests was also run and no regression was observed.

2016-06-08locking/qspinlock: Clarify xchg_tail() orderingPeter Zijlstra
While going over the code I noticed that xchg_tail() is a RELEASE but had no obvious pairing commented. It pairs with a somewhat unique address dependency through decode_tail(). So the store-release of xchg_tail() is paired by the address dependency of the load of xchg_tail followed by the dereference from the pointer computed from that load. The @old -> @prev transformation itself is pure, and therefore does not depend on external state, so that is immaterial wrt. ordering.

The wait-time, sum-exec, and sum-sleep fields are missing from the /proc/sched_debug file in the runnable_tasks section. Fix it with a new schedstat_val() macro which returns the field value when schedstats is enabled and zero otherwise. The macro works with both SCHEDSTATS and !SCHEDSTATS.

2016-06-08locking/qspinlock: Fix spin_unlock_wait() some morePeter Zijlstra
While this prior commit: 54cf809b9512 ("locking,qspinlock: Fix spin_is_locked() and spin_unlock_wait()") ... fixes spin_is_locked() and spin_unlock_wait() for the usage in ipc/sem and netfilter, it does not in fact work right for the usage in task_work and futex. So while the 2 locks crossed problem: spin_lock(A) spin_lock(B) if (!spin_is_locked(B)) spin_unlock_wait(A) foo() foo(); ... works with the smp_mb() injected by both spin_is_locked() and spin_unlock_wait(), this is not sufficient for: flag = 1; smp_mb(); spin_lock() spin_unlock_wait() if (!flag) // add to lockless list // iterate lockless list ... because in this scenario, the store from spin_lock() can be delayed past the load of flag, uncrossing the variables and loosing the guarantee. This patch reworks spin_is_locked() and spin_unlock_wait() to work in both cases by exploiting the observation that while the lock byte store can be delayed, the contender must have registered itself visibly in other state contained in the word. It also allows for architectures to override both functions, as PPC and ARM64 have an additional issue for which we currently have no generic solution.
