2011-10-18dynamic_debug: fix undefined reference to `__netdev_printk'Jason Baron
Dynamic debug recently added support for netdev_printk. It uses __netdev_printk() to support this functionality. However, when CONFIG_NET is not set, we get the following error: lib/built-in.o: In function `__dynamic_netdev_dbg': (.text+0x9fda): undefined reference to `__netdev_printk' Fix this by making the call to netdev_printk() contingent upon CONFIG_NET. We could have fixed this by defining netdev_printk() to a 'no-op' in the !CONFIG_NET case. However, this is not consistent with how the networking layer uses netdev_printk. For example, CONFIG_NET is not set, netdev_printk() does not have a 'no-op' definition defined.

2011-10-18dynamic_debug: use a single printk() to emit messagesJason Baron
We were using KERN_CONT to combine messages with their prefix. However, KERN_CONT is not smp safe, in the sense that it can interleave messages. This interleaving can result in printks coming out at the wrong loglevel. With the high frequency of printks that dynamic debug can produce this is not desirable. So make dynamic_emit_prefix() fill a char buf[64] instead of doing a printk directly. If we enable printing out of function, module, line, or pid info, they are placed in this 64 byte buffer. In my testing 64 bytes was enough size to fulfill all requests. Even if it's not, we can match up the printk itself to see where it's from, so to me this is no big deal.

2011-10-06sched: Wrap scheduler p->cpus_allowed accessPeter Zijlstra
This task is preparatory for the migrate_disable() implementation, but stands on its own and provides a cleanup. It currently only converts those sites required for task-placement. Kosaki-san once mentioned replacing cpus_allowed with a proper cpumask_t instead of the NR_CPUS sized array it currently is, that would also require something like this.

2011-10-04llist: Remove cpu_relax() usage in cmpxchg loopsPeter Zijlstra
Initial benchmarks show they're a net loss: $ for i in /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/cpufreq/scaling_governor ; do echo performance > $i; done $ echo 4096 32000 64 128 > /proc/sys/kernel/sem $ ./sembench -t 2048 -w 1900 -o 0 Pre: run time 30 seconds 778936 worker burns per second run time 30 seconds 912190 worker burns per second run time 30 seconds 817506 worker burns per second run time 30 seconds 830870 worker burns per second run time 30 seconds 845056 worker burns per second Post: run time 30 seconds 905920 worker burns per second run time 30 seconds 849046 worker burns per second run time 30 seconds 886286 worker burns per second run time 30 seconds 822320 worker burns per second run time 30 seconds 900283 worker burns per second So about 4% faster. (!) cpu_relax() stalls the pipeline, therefore, when used in a tight loop it has the following benefits: - allows SMT siblings to have a go; - reduces pressure on the CPU interconnect. However, cmpxchg loops are unfair and thus have unbounded completion time, therefore we should avoid getting in such heavily contended situations where the above benefits make any difference. A typical cmpxchg loop should not go round more than a handfull of times at worst, therefore adding extra delays just slows things down. Since the llist primitives are new, there aren't any bad users yet, and we should avoid growing them. Heavily contended sites should generally be better off using the ticket locks for serialization since they provide bounded completion times (fifo-fair over the cpus).

2011-10-04llist: Return whether list is empty before adding in llist_add()Huang Ying
Extend the llist_add*() functions to return a success indicator, this allows us in the scheduler code to send an IPI if the queue was empty. ( There's no effect on existing users, because the list_add_xxx() functions are inline, thus this will be optimized out by the compiler if not used by callers. ) Signed-off-by: Huang Ying <ying.huang@intel.com> Cc: Mathieu Desnoyers <mathieu.desnoyers@efficios.com> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1315461646-1379-5-git-send-email-ying.huang@intel.com Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2011-10-04llist: Move cpu_relax() to after the cmpxchg()Huang Ying
If in llist_add()/etc. functions the first cmpxchg() call succeeds, it is not necessary to use cpu_relax() before the cmpxchg(). So cpu_relax() in a busy loop involving cmpxchg() should go after cmpxchg() instead of before that. This patch fixes this for all involved llist functions.

2011-10-01ARM: always use ARM_UNWIND for thumb2 kernelsArnd Bergmann
Thumb2 kernels cannot be built with frame pointers, but can use the ARM_UNWIND feature for unwinding instead. This makes sure that all features that rely on unwinding includeing CONFIG_LATENCYTOP and FAULT_INJECTION_STACKTRACE_FILTER do not enable frame pointers when the unwinder is already selected, and we always build with the unwinder when we want a thumb2 kernel, to make sure we do not get the frame pointers instead. A different option would be to redefine the CONFIG_FRAME_POINTERS option on ARM to mean builing with either frame pointers or the unwinder, and then select which one to use based on the CPU architecture or another user option. That would still allow building thumb2 kernels without the unwinder but would also be more confusing. Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>
2011-09-21XZ: Fix incorrect XZ_BUF_ERRORLasse Collin
xz_dec_run() could incorrectly return XZ_BUF_ERROR if all of the following was true: - The caller knows how many bytes of output to expect and only provides that much output space. - When the last output bytes are decoded, the caller-provided input buffer ends right before the LZMA2 end of payload marker. So LZMA2 won't provide more output anymore, but it won't know it yet and thus won't return XZ_STREAM_END yet. - A BCJ filter is in use and it hasn't left any unfiltered bytes in the temp buffer. This can happen with any BCJ filter, but in practice it's more likely with filters other than the x86 BCJ. This fixes <https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=735408> where Squashfs thinks that a valid file system is corrupt. This also fixes a similar bug in single-call mode where the uncompressed size of a block using BCJ + LZMA2 was 0 bytes and caller provided no output space. Many empty .xz files don't contain any blocks and thus don't trigger this bug. This also tweaks a closely related detail: xz_dec_bcj_run() could call xz_dec_lzma2_run() to decode into temp buffer when it was known to be useless. This was harmless although it wasted a minuscule number of CPU cycles.

2011-08-06lib/sha1: use the git implementation of SHA-1Mandeep Singh Baines
For ChromiumOS, we use SHA-1 to verify the integrity of the root filesystem. The speed of the kernel sha-1 implementation has a major impact on our boot performance. To improve boot performance, we investigated using the heavily optimized sha-1 implementation used in git. With the git sha-1 implementation, we see a 11.7% improvement in boot time. 10 reboots, remove slowest/fastest. Before: Mean: 6.58 seconds Stdev: 0.14 After (with git sha-1, this patch): Mean: 5.89 seconds Stdev: 0.07 The other cool thing about the git SHA-1 implementation is that it only needs 64 bytes of stack for the workspace while the original kernel implementation needed 320 bytes.

2011-08-03tmpfs radix_tree: locate_item to speed up swapoffHugh Dickins
We have already acknowledged that swapoff of a tmpfs file is slower than it was before conversion to the generic radix_tree: a little slower there will be acceptable, if the hotter paths are faster. But it was a shock to find swapoff of a 500MB file 20 times slower on my laptop, taking 10 minutes; and at that rate it significantly slows down my testing. Now, most of that turned out to be overhead from PROVE_LOCKING and PROVE_RCU: without those it was only 4 times slower than before; and more realistic tests on other machines don't fare as badly. I've tried a number of things to improve it, including tagging the swap entries, then doing lookup by tag: I'd expected that to halve the time, but in practice it's erratic, and often counter-productive. The only change I've so far found to make a consistent improvement, is to short-circuit the way we go back and forth, gang lookup packing entries into the array supplied, then shmem scanning that array for the target entry. Scanning in place doubles the speed, so it's now only twice as slow as before (or three times slower when the PROVEs are on). So, add radix_tree_locate_item() as an expedient, once-off, single-caller hack to do the lookup directly in place. #ifdef it on CONFIG_SHMEM and CONFIG_SWAP, as much to document its limited applicability as save space in other configurations. And, sadly, #include sched.h for cond_resched().

2011-08-03radix_tree: exceptional entries and indicesHugh Dickins
A patchset to extend tmpfs to MAX_LFS_FILESIZE by abandoning its peculiar swap vector, instead keeping a file's swap entries in the same radix tree as its struct page pointers: thus saving memory, and simplifying its code and locking. This patch: The radix_tree is used by several subsystems for different purposes. A major use is to store the struct page pointers of a file's pagecache for memory management. But what if mm wanted to store something other than page pointers there too? The low bit of a radix_tree entry is already used to denote an indirect pointer, for internal use, and the unlikely radix_tree_deref_retry() case. Define the next bit as denoting an exceptional entry, and supply inline functions radix_tree_exception() to return non-0 in either unlikely case, and radix_tree_exceptional_entry() to return non-0 in the second case. If a subsystem already uses radix_tree with that bit set, no problem: it does not affect internal workings at all, but is defined for the convenience of those storing well-aligned pointers in the radix_tree. The radix_tree_gang_lookups have an implicit assumption that the caller can deduce the offset of each entry returned e.g. by the page->index of a struct page. But that may not be feasible for some kinds of item to be stored there. radix_tree_gang_lookup_slot() allow for an optional indices argument, output array in which to return those offsets. The same could be added to other radix_tree_gang_lookups, but for now keep it to the only one for which we need it.

2011-08-03fault-injection: add ability to export fault_attr in arbitrary directoryAkinobu Mita
init_fault_attr_dentries() is used to export fault_attr via debugfs. But it can only export it in debugfs root directory. Per Forlin is working on mmc_fail_request which adds support to inject data errors after a completed host transfer in MMC subsystem. The fault_attr for mmc_fail_request should be defined per mmc host and export it in debugfs directory per mmc host like /sys/kernel/debug/mmc0/mmc_fail_request. init_fault_attr_dentries() doesn't help for mmc_fail_request. So this introduces fault_create_debugfs_attr() which is able to create a directory in the arbitrary directory and replace init_fault_attr_dentries().

2011-08-03lib, Make gen_pool memory allocator locklessHuang Ying
This version of the gen_pool memory allocator supports lockless operation. This makes it safe to use in NMI handlers and other special unblockable contexts that could otherwise deadlock on locks. This is implemented by using atomic operations and retries on any conflicts. The disadvantage is that there may be livelocks in extreme cases. For better scalability, one gen_pool allocator can be used for each CPU. The lockless operation only works if there is enough memory available. If new memory is added to the pool a lock has to be still taken. So any user relying on locklessness has to ensure that sufficient memory is preallocated. The basic atomic operation of this allocator is cmpxchg on long. On architectures that don't have NMI-safe cmpxchg implementation, the allocator can NOT be used in NMI handler. So code uses the allocator in NMI handler should depend on CONFIG_ARCH_HAVE_NMI_SAFE_CMPXCHG.
