MIPS has two functions to calculcate the mult/shift factors for clock sources and clock events at run time. ARM needs such functions as well. Implement a function which calculates the mult/shift factors based on the frequencies to which and from which is converted. The function also has a parameter to specify the minimum conversion range in seconds. This range is guaranteed not to produce a 64bit overflow when a value is multiplied with the calculated mult factor. The larger the conversion range the less becomes the conversion accuracy. Provide two inline wrappers which handle clock events and clock sources. For clock events the "from" frequency is nano seconds per second which corresponds to 1GHz and "to" is the device frequency. For clock sources "from" is the device frequency and "to" is nano seconds per second.

The mult and shift factors of clock events differ in their data type from those of clock sources for no reason. u32 is sufficient for both. shift is always <= 32 and mult is limited to 2^32-1 to avoid 64bit multiplication overflows in the conversion. Preparatory patch for a generic mult/shift factor calculation function.

Allow the architecture to request a normal jiffy tick when the system goes idle and tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick is called . On s390 the hook is used to prevent the system going fully idle if there has been an interrupt other than a clock comparator interrupt since the last wakeup. On s390 the HiperSockets response time for 1 connection ping-pong goes down from 42 to 34 microseconds. The CPU cost decreases by 27%.

Accumulating one tick at a time works well unless we're using NOHZ. Then it can be an issue, since we may have to run through the loop a few thousand times, which can increase timer interrupt caused latency. The current solution was to accumulate in half-second intervals with NOHZ. This kept the number of loops down, however it did slightly change how we make NTP adjustments. While not an issue with NTPd users, as NTPd makes adjustments over a longer period of time, other adjtimex() users have noticed the half-second granularity with which we can apply frequency changes to the clock. For instance, if a application tries to apply a 100ppm frequency correction for 20ms to correct a 2us offset, with NOHZ they either get no correction, or a 50us correction. Now, there will always be some granularity error for applying frequency corrections. However with users sensitive to this error have seen a 50-500x increase with NOHZ compared to running without NOHZ. So I figured I'd try another approach then just simply increasing the interval. My approach is to consume the time interval logarithmically. This reduces the number of times through the loop needed keeping latency down, while still preserving the original granularity error for adjtimex() changes. Further, this change allows us to remove the xtime_cache code (patch to follow), as xtime is always within one tick of the current time, instead of the half-second updates it saw before. An earlier version of this patch has been shipping to x86 users in the RedHat MRG releases for awhile without issue, but I've reworked this version to be even more careful about avoiding possible overflows if the shift value gets too large.

This patch clean up/fixes for memcg's uncharge soft limit path. Problems: Now, res_counter_charge()/uncharge() handles softlimit information at charge/uncharge and softlimit-check is done when event counter per memcg goes over limit. Now, event counter per memcg is updated only when memory usage is over soft limit. Here, considering hierarchical memcg management, ancesotors should be taken care of. Now, ancerstors(hierarchy) are handled in charge() but not in uncharge(). This is not good. Prolems: 1. memcg's event counter incremented only when softlimit hits. That's bad. It makes event counter hard to be reused for other purpose. 2. At uncharge, only the lowest level rescounter is handled. This is bug. Because ancesotor's event counter is not incremented, children should take care of them. 3. res_counter_uncharge()'s 3rd argument is NULL in most case. ops under res_counter->lock should be small. No "if" sentense is better. Fixes: * Removed soft_limit_xx poitner and checks in charge and uncharge. Do-check-only-when-necessary scheme works enough well without them. * make event-counter of memcg incremented at every charge/uncharge. (per-cpu area will be accessed soon anyway) * All ancestors are checked at soft-limit-check. This is necessary because ancesotor's event counter may never be modified. Then, they should be checked at the same time.

The following commit made console open fails while booting: commit b50989dc Author: Alan Cox <alan@linux.intel.com> Date: Sat Sep 19 13:13:22 2009 -0700 tty: make the kref destructor occur asynchronously Due to tty release routines run in a workqueue now, error like the following will be reported while booting: INIT open /dev/console Input/output error It also causes hibernation regression to appear as reported at http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14229 The reason is that now there's latency issue with closing, but when we open a "closing not finished" tty, -EIO will be returned. Fix it as per the following Alan's suggestion: Fun but it's actually not a bug and the fix is wrong in itself as the port may be closing but not yet being destructed, in which case it seems to do the wrong thing. Opening a tty that is closing (and could be closing for long periods) is supposed to return -EIO. I suspect a better way to deal with this and keep the old console timing is to split tty->shutdown into two functions. tty->shutdown() - called synchronously just before we dump the tty onto the waitqueue for destruction tty->cleanup() - called when the destructor runs. We would then do the shutdown part which can occur in IRQ context fine, before queueing the rest of the release (from tty->magic = 0 ... the end) to occur asynchronously The USB update in -next would then need a call like if (tty->cleanup) tty->cleanup(tty); at the top of the async function and the USB shutdown to be split between shutdown and cleanup as the USB resource cleanup and final tidy cannot occur synchronously as it needs to sleep. In other words the logic becomes final kref put make object unfindable async clean it up Signed-off-by: NDave Young <hidave.darkstar@gmail.com> [ rjw: Rebased on top of 2.6.31-git, reworked the changelog. ] Signed-off-by: N"Rafael J.

Implement reclaim from groups over their soft limit Permit reclaim from memory cgroups on contention (via the direct reclaim path). memory cgroup soft limit reclaim finds the group that exceeds its soft limit by the largest number of pages and reclaims pages from it and then reinserts the cgroup into its correct place in the rbtree. Add additional checks to mem_cgroup_hierarchical_reclaim() to detect long loops in case all swap is turned off. The code has been refactored and the loop check (loop < 2) has been enhanced for soft limits. For soft limits, we try to do more targetted reclaim. Instead of bailing out after two loops, the routine now reclaims memory proportional to the size by which the soft limit is exceeded. The proportion has been empirically determined.

Organize cgroups over soft limit in a RB-Tree Introduce an RB-Tree for storing memory cgroups that are over their soft limit. The overall goal is to 1. Add a memory cgroup to the RB-Tree when the soft limit is exceeded. We are careful about updates, updates take place only after a particular time interval has passed 2. We remove the node from the RB-Tree when the usage goes below the soft limit The next set of patches will exploit the RB-Tree to get the group that is over its soft limit by the largest amount and reclaim from it, when we face memory contention.

Add an interface to allow get/set of soft limits. Soft limits for memory plus swap controller (memsw) is currently not supported. Resource counters have been enhanced to support soft limits and new type RES_SOFT_LIMIT has been added. Unlike hard limits, soft limits can be directly set and do not need any reclaim or checks before setting them to a newer value. Kamezawa-San raised a question as to whether soft limit should belong to res_counter. Since all resources understand the basic concepts of hard and soft limits, it is justified to add soft limits here. Soft limits are a generic resource usage feature, even file system quotas support soft limits.

Change the memory cgroup to remove the overhead associated with accounting all pages in the root cgroup. As a side-effect, we can no longer set a memory hard limit in the root cgroup. A new flag to track whether the page has been accounted or not has been added as well. Flags are now set atomically for page_cgroup, pcg_default_flags is now obsolete and removed.

Alter the ss->can_attach and ss->attach functions to be able to deal with a whole threadgroup at a time, for use in cgroup_attach_proc. (This is a pre-patch to cgroup-procs-writable.patch.) Currently, new mode of the attach function can only tell the subsystem about the old cgroup of the threadgroup leader. No subsystem currently needs that information for each thread that's being moved, but if one were to be added (for example, one that counts tasks within a group) this bit would need to be reworked a bit to tell the subsystem the right information.

Changes css_set freeing mechanism to be under RCU This is a prepatch for making the procs file writable. In order to free the old css_sets for each task to be moved as they're being moved, the freeing mechanism must be RCU-protected, or else we would have to have a call to synchronize_rcu() for each task before freeing its old css_set.
