The get_swap_page/scan_swap_map latency can be so bad that even those without preemption configured deserve relief: periodically cond_resched. Signed-off-by: NHugh Dickins <hugh@veritas.com> Signed-off-by: NAndrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

get_swap_page has often shown up on latency traces, doing lengthy scans while holding two spinlocks. swap_list_lock is already dropped, now scan_swap_map drop swap_device_lock before scanning the swap_map. While scanning for an empty cluster, don't worry that racing tasks may allocate what was free and free what was allocated; but when allocating an entry, check it's still free after retaking the lock. Avoid dropping the lock in the expected common path. No barriers beyond the locks, just let the cookie crumble; highest_bit limit is volatile, but benign. Guard against swapoff: must check SWP_WRITEOK before allocating, must raise SWP_SCANNING reference count while in scan_swap_map, swapoff wait for that to fall - just use schedule_timeout, we don't want to burden scan_swap_map itself, and it's very unlikely that anyone can really still be in scan_swap_map once swapoff gets this far.

Rewrite scan_swap_map to allocate in just the same way as before (taking the next free entry SWAPFILE_CLUSTER-1 times, then restarting at the lowest wholly empty cluster, falling back to lowest entry if none), but with a view towards dropping the lock in the next patch.

Rewrite get_swap_page to allocate in just the same sequence as before, but without holding swap_list_lock across its scan_swap_map. Decrement nr_swap_pages and update swap_list.next in advance, while still holding swap_list_lock. Skip full devices by testing highest_bit. Swapoff hold swap_device_lock as well as swap_list_lock to clear SWP_WRITEOK. Reduces lock contention when there are parallel swap devices of the same priority.

This makes negligible difference in practice: but swap_list.next should not be updated to a higher prio in the general helper swap_info_get, but rather in swap_entry_free; and then only in the case when entry is actually freed.

The swap header's unsigned int last_page determines the range of swap pages, but swap_info has been using int or unsigned long in some cases: use unsigned int throughout (except, in several places a local unsigned long is useful to avoid overflows when adding).

The "Adding %dk swap" message shows the number of swap extents, as a guide to how fragmented the swapfile may be. But a useful further guide is what total extent they span across (sometimes scarily large). And there's no need to keep nr_extents in swap_info: it's unused after the initial message, so save a little space by keeping it on stack.

There are several comments that swap's extent_list.prev points to the lowest extent: that's not so, it's extent_list.next which points to it, as you'd expect. And a couple of loops in add_swap_extent which go all the way through the list, when they should just add to the other end. Fix those up, and let map_swap_page search the list forwards: profiles shows it to be twice as quick that way - because prefetch works better on how the structs are typically kmalloc'ed? or because usually more is written to than read from swap, and swap is allocated ascendingly?

sys_swapon's call to destroy_swap_extents on failure is made after the final swap_list_unlock, which is faintly unsafe: another sys_swapon might already be setting up that swap_info_struct. Calling it earlier, before taking swap_list_lock, is safe. sys_swapoff's call to destroy_swap_extents was safe, but likewise move it earlier, before taking the locks (once try_to_unuse has completed, nothing can be needing the swap extents).

If a regular swapfile lies on a filesystem whose blocksize is less than PAGE_SIZE, then setup_swap_extents may have to cut the number of usable swap pages; but sys_swapon's nr_good_pages was not expecting that. Also, setup_swap_extents takes no account of badpages listed in the swap header: not worth doing so, but ensure nr_badpages is 0 for a regular swapfile.

This splits up sparse_index_alloc() into two pieces. This is needed because we'll allocate the memory for the second level in a different place from where we actually consume it to keep the allocation from happening underneath a lock Signed-off-by: NDave Hansen <haveblue@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: NBob Picco <bob.picco@hp.com> Cc: Andy Whitcroft <apw@shadowen.org> Signed-off-by: NAndrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

With cleanups from Dave Hansen <haveblue@us.ibm.com> SPARSEMEM_EXTREME makes mem_section a one dimensional array of pointers to mem_sections. This two level layout scheme is able to achieve smaller memory requirements for SPARSEMEM with the tradeoff of an additional shift and load when fetching the memory section. The current SPARSEMEM implementation is a one dimensional array of mem_sections which is the default SPARSEMEM configuration. The patch attempts isolates the implementation details of the physical layout of the sparsemem section array. SPARSEMEM_EXTREME requires bootmem to be functioning at the time of memory_present() calls. This is not always feasible, so architectures which do not need it may allocate everything statically by using SPARSEMEM_STATIC.

A new option for SPARSEMEM is ARCH_SPARSEMEM_EXTREME. Architecture platforms with a very sparse physical address space would likely want to select this option. For those architecture platforms that don't select the option, the code generated is equivalent to SPARSEMEM currently in -mm. I'll be posting a patch on ia64 ml which uses this new SPARSEMEM feature. ARCH_SPARSEMEM_EXTREME makes mem_section a one dimensional array of pointers to mem_sections. This two level layout scheme is able to achieve smaller memory requirements for SPARSEMEM with the tradeoff of an additional shift and load when fetching the memory section. The current SPARSEMEM -mm implementation is a one dimensional array of mem_sections which is the default SPARSEMEM configuration. The patch attempts isolates the implementation details of the physical layout of the sparsemem section array. ARCH_SPARSEMEM_EXTREME depends on 64BIT and is by default boolean false. I've boot tested under aim load ia64 configured for ARCH_SPARSEMEM_EXTREME. I've also boot tested a 4 way Opteron machine with !ARCH_SPARSEMEM_EXTREME and tested with aim.

This patch corrects the PNP-handling inside the tpm-driver and some minor coding style bugs. Note: the pci-device and pnp-device mixture is currently necessary, since the used "tpm"-interface requires a pci-dev in order to register the driver. This will be fixed within the next iterations.
