      cfq-iosched: enable full blkcg hierarchy support · d02f7aa8
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      With the previous two patches, all cfqg scheduling decisions are based
      on vfraction and ready for hierarchy support.  The only thing which
      keeps the behavior flat is cfqg_flat_parent() which makes vfraction
      calculation consider all non-root cfqgs children of the root cfqg.
      
      Replace it with cfqg_parent() which returns the real parent.  This
      enables full blkcg hierarchy support for cfq-iosched.  For example,
      consider the following hierarchy.
      
              root
            /      \
         A:500      B:250
        /     \
       AA:500  AB:1000
      
      For simplicity, let's say all the leaf nodes have active tasks and are
      on service tree.  For each leaf node, vfraction would be
      
       AA: (500  / 1500) * (500 / 750) =~ 0.2222
       AB: (1000 / 1500) * (500 / 750) =~ 0.4444
        B:                 (250 / 750) =~ 0.3333
      
      and vdisktime will be distributed accordingly.  For more detail,
      please refer to Documentation/block/cfq-iosched.txt.
      
      v2: cfq-iosched.txt updated to describe group scheduling as suggested
          by Vivek.
      
      v3: blkio-controller.txt updated.

      cfq-iosched: convert cfq_group_slice() to use cfqg->vfraction · 41cad6ab
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      cfq_group_slice() calculates slice by taking a fraction of
      cfq_target_latency according to the ratio of cfqg->weight against
      service_tree->total_weight.  This currently works only because all
      cfqgs are treated to be at the same level.
      
      To prepare for proper hierarchy support, convert cfq_group_slice() to
      base the calculation on cfqg->vfraction.  As cfqg->vfraction is always
      a fraction of 1 and represents the fraction allocated to the cfqg with
      hierarchy considered, the slice can be simply calculated by
      multiplying cfqg->vfraction to cfq_target_latency (with fixed point
      shift factored in).
      
      As vfraction calculation currently treats all non-root cfqgs as
      children of the root cfqg, this patch doesn't introduce noticeable
      behavior difference.

      cfq-iosched: implement hierarchy-ready cfq_group charge scaling · 1d3650f7
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      Currently, cfqg charges are scaled directly according to cfqg->weight.
      Regardless of the number of active cfqgs or the amount of active
      weights, a given weight value always scales charge the same way.  This
      works fine as long as all cfqgs are treated equally regardless of
      their positions in the hierarchy, which is what cfq currently
      implements.  It can't work in hierarchical settings because the
      interpretation of a given weight value depends on where the weight is
      located in the hierarchy.
      
      This patch reimplements cfqg charge scaling so that it can be used to
      support hierarchy properly.  The scheme is fairly simple and
      light-weight.
      
      * When a cfqg is added to the service tree, v(disktime)weight is
        calculated.  It walks up the tree to root calculating the fraction
        it has in the hierarchy.  At each level, the fraction can be
        calculated as
      
          cfqg->weight / parent->level_weight
      
        By compounding these, the global fraction of vdisktime the cfqg has
        claim to - vfraction - can be determined.
      
      * When the cfqg needs to be charged, the charge is scaled inversely
        proportionally to the vfraction.
      
      The new scaling scheme uses the same CFQ_SERVICE_SHIFT for fixed point
      representation as before; however, the smallest scaling factor is now
      1 (ie. 1 << CFQ_SERVICE_SHIFT).  This is different from before where 1
      was for CFQ_WEIGHT_DEFAULT and higher weight would result in smaller
      scaling factor.
      
      While this shifts the global scale of vdisktime a bit, it doesn't
      change the relative relationships among cfqgs and the scheduling
      result isn't different.
      
      cfq_group_notify_queue_add uses fixed CFQ_IDLE_DELAY when appending
      new cfqg to the service tree.  The specific value of CFQ_IDLE_DELAY
      didn't have any relevance to vdisktime before and is unlikely to cause
      any visible behavior difference now especially as the scale shift
      isn't that large.
      
      As the new scheme now makes proper distinction between cfqg->weight
      and ->leaf_weight, reverse the weight aliasing for root cfqgs.  For
      root, both weights are now mapped to ->leaf_weight instead of the
      other way around.
      
      Because we're still using cfqg_flat_parent(), this patch shouldn't
      change the scheduling behavior in any noticeable way.

      cfq-iosched: implement cfq_group->nr_active and ->children_weight · 7918ffb5
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      To prepare for blkcg hierarchy support, add cfqg->nr_active and
      ->children_weight.  cfqg->nr_active counts the number of active cfqgs
      at the cfqg's level and ->children_weight is sum of weights of those
      cfqgs.  The level covers itself (cfqg->leaf_weight) and immediate
      children.
      
      The two values are updated when a cfqg enters and leaves the group
      service tree.  Unless the hierarchy is very deep, the added overhead
      should be negligible.
      
      Currently, the parent is determined using cfqg_flat_parent() which
      makes the root cfqg the parent of all other cfqgs.  This is to make
      the transition to hierarchy-aware scheduling gradual.  Scheduling
      logic will be converted to use cfqg->children_weight without actually
      changing the behavior.  When everything is ready,
      blkcg_weight_parent() will be replaced with proper parent function.
      
      This patch doesn't introduce any behavior chagne.

      cfq-iosched: add leaf_weight · e71357e1
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      cfq blkcg is about to grow proper hierarchy handling, where a child
      blkg's weight would nest inside the parent's.  This makes tasks in a
      blkg to compete against both tasks in the sibling blkgs and the tasks
      of child blkgs.
      
      We're gonna use the existing weight as the group weight which decides
      the blkg's weight against its siblings.  This patch introduces a new
      weight - leaf_weight - which decides the weight of a blkg against the
      child blkgs.
      
      It's named leaf_weight because another way to look at it is that each
      internal blkg nodes have a hidden child leaf node which contains all
      its tasks and leaf_weight is the weight of the leaf node and handled
      the same as the weight of the child blkgs.
      
      This patch only adds leaf_weight fields and exposes it to userland.
      The new weight isn't actually used anywhere yet.  Note that
      cfq-iosched currently offcially supports only single level hierarchy
      and root blkgs compete with the first level blkgs - ie. root weight is
      basically being used as leaf_weight.  For root blkgs, the two weights
      are kept in sync for backward compatibility.
      
      v2: cfqd->root_group->leaf_weight initialization was missing from
          cfq_init_queue() causing divide by zero when
          !CONFIG_CFQ_GROUP_SCHED.  Fix it.  Reported by Fengguang.

      blkcg: make blkcg_gq's hierarchical · 3c547865
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      Currently a child blkg (blkcg_gq) can be created even if its parent
      doesn't exist.  ie. Given a blkg, it's not guaranteed that its
      ancestors will exist.  This makes it difficult to implement proper
      hierarchy support for blkcg policies.
      
      Always create blkgs recursively and make a child blkg hold a reference
      to its parent.  blkg->parent is added so that finding the parent is
      easy.  blkcg_parent() is also added in the process.
      
      This change can be visible to userland.  e.g. while issuing IO in a
      nested cgroup didn't affect the ancestors at all, now it will
      initialize all ancestor blkgs and zero stats for the request_queue
      will always appear on them.  While this is userland visible, this
      shouldn't cause any functional difference.

      leds: leds-gpio: set devm_gpio_request_one() flags param correctly · 2d7c22f6
      Javier Martinez Canillas 提交于
      commit a99d76f9 leds: leds-gpio: use gpio_request_one
      
      changed the leds-gpio driver to use gpio_request_one() instead
      of gpio_request() + gpio_direction_output()
      
      Unfortunately, it also made a semantic change that breaks the
      leds-gpio driver.
      
      The gpio_request_one() flags parameter was set to:
      
      GPIOF_DIR_OUT | (led_dat->active_low ^ state)
      
      Since GPIOF_DIR_OUT is 0, the final flags value will just be the
      XOR'ed value of led_dat->active_low and state.
      
      This value were used to distinguish between HIGH/LOW output initial
      level and call gpio_direction_output() accordingly.
      
      With this new semantic gpio_request_one() will take the flags value
      of 1 as a configuration of input direction (GPIOF_DIR_IN) and will
      call gpio_direction_input() instead of gpio_direction_output().
      
      int gpio_request_one(unsigned gpio, unsigned long flags, const char *label)
      {
      ..
      	if (flags & GPIOF_DIR_IN)
      		err = gpio_direction_input(gpio);
      	else
      		err = gpio_direction_output(gpio,
      				(flags & GPIOF_INIT_HIGH) ? 1 : 0);
      ..
      }
      
      The right semantic is to evaluate led_dat->active_low ^ state and
      set the output initial level explicitly.

      It's very unlikely this will happen as shared pages are not marked
      pte_numa -- see the page_mapcount() check in change_pte_range() -- but
      it is possible.
      
      To address this, this patch restores sp->lock as originally implemented
      by Kosaki Motohiro.  In the path where get_vma_policy() is called, it
      should not be calling sp_alloc() so it is not necessary to treat the PTL
      specially.

      tmpfs mempolicy: fix /proc/mounts corrupting memory · f2a07f40
      Hugh Dickins 提交于
      Recently I suggested using "mount -o remount,mpol=local /tmp" in NUMA
      mempolicy testing.  Very nasty.  Reading /proc/mounts, /proc/pid/mounts
      or /proc/pid/mountinfo may then corrupt one bit of kernel memory, often
      in a page table (causing "Bad swap" or "Bad page map" warning or "Bad
      pagetable" oops), sometimes in a vm_area_struct or rbnode or somewhere
      worse.  "mpol=prefer" and "mpol=prefer:Node" are equally toxic.
      
      Recent NUMA enhancements are not to blame: this dates back to 2.6.35,
      when commit e17f74af "mempolicy: don't call mpol_set_nodemask() when
      no_context" skipped mpol_parse_str()'s call to mpol_set_nodemask(),
      which used to initialize v.preferred_node, or set MPOL_F_LOCAL in flags.
      With slab poisoning, you can then rely on mpol_to_str() to set the bit
      for node 0x6b6b, probably in the next page above the caller's stack.
      
      mpol_parse_str() is only called from shmem_parse_options(): no_context
      is always true, so call it unused for now, and remove !no_context code.
      Set v.nodes or v.preferred_node or MPOL_F_LOCAL as mpol_to_str() might
      expect.  Then mpol_to_str() can ignore its no_context argument also,
      the mpol being appropriately initialized whether contextualized or not.
      Rename its no_context unused too, and let subsequent patch remove them
      (that's not needed for stable backporting, which would involve rejects).
      
      I don't understand why MPOL_LOCAL is described as a pseudo-policy:
      it's a reasonable policy which suffers from a confusing implementation
      in terms of MPOL_PREFERRED with MPOL_F_LOCAL.  I believe this would be
      much more robust if MPOL_LOCAL were recognized in switch statements
      throughout, MPOL_F_LOCAL deleted, and MPOL_PREFERRED use the (possibly
      empty) nodes mask like everyone else, instead of its preferred_node
      variant (I presume an optimization from the days before MPOL_LOCAL).
      But that would take me too long to get right and fully tested.

      epoll: prevent missed events on EPOLL_CTL_MOD · 128dd175
      Eric Wong 提交于
      EPOLL_CTL_MOD sets the interest mask before calling f_op->poll() to
      ensure events are not missed.  Since the modifications to the interest
      mask are not protected by the same lock as ep_poll_callback, we need to
      ensure the change is visible to other CPUs calling ep_poll_callback.
      
      We also need to ensure f_op->poll() has an up-to-date view of past
      events which occured before we modified the interest mask.  So this
      barrier also pairs with the barrier in wq_has_sleeper().
      
      This should guarantee either ep_poll_callback or f_op->poll() (or both)
      will notice the readiness of a recently-ready/modified item.
