      dm kcopyd: remove superfluous page allocation spinlock · 4cc1b4cf
      Mikulas Patocka 提交于
      Remove the spinlock protecting the pages allocation.  The spinlock is only
      taken on initialization or from single-threaded workqueue.  Therefore, the
      spinlock is useless.
      
      The spinlock is taken in kcopyd_get_pages and kcopyd_put_pages.
      
      kcopyd_get_pages is only called from run_pages_job, which is only
      called from process_jobs called from do_work.
      
      kcopyd_put_pages is called from client_alloc_pages (which is initialization
      function) or from run_complete_job. run_complete_job is only called from
      process_jobs called from do_work.
      
      Another spinlock, kc->job_lock is taken each time someone pushes or pops
      some work for the worker thread.  Once we take kc->job_lock, we
      guarantee that any written memory is visible to the other CPUs.

      dm kcopyd: preallocate sub jobs to avoid deadlock · c6ea41fb
      Mikulas Patocka 提交于
      There's a possible theoretical deadlock in dm-kcopyd because multiple
      allocations from the same mempool are required to finish a request.
      Avoid this by preallocating sub jobs.
      
      There is a mempool of 512 entries. Each request requires up to 9
      entries from the mempool. If we have at least 57 concurrent requests
      running, the mempool may overflow and mempool allocations may start
      blocking until another entry is freed to the mempool. Because the same
      thread is used to free entries to the mempool and allocate entries from
      the mempool, this may result in a deadlock.
      
      This patch changes it so that one mempool entry contains all 9 "struct
      kcopyd_job" required to fulfill the whole request. The allocation is
      done only once in dm_kcopyd_copy and no further mempool allocations are
      done during request processing.
      
      If dm_kcopyd_copy is not run in the completion thread, this
      implementation is deadlock-free.
      
      MIN_JOBS needs reducing accordingly and we've chosen to reduce it
      further to 8.

      dm table: reject devices without request fns · f4808ca9
      Milan Broz 提交于
      This patch adds a check that a block device has a request function
      defined before it is used.  Otherwise, misconfiguration can cause an oops.
      
      Because we are allowing devices with zero size e.g. an offline multipath
      device as in commit 2cd54d9b
      ("dm: allow offline devices") there needs to be an additional check
      to ensure devices are initialised.  Some block devices, like a loop
      device without a backing file, exist but have no request function.
      
      Reproducer is trivial: dm-mirror on unbound loop device
      (no backing file on loop devices)
      
      dmsetup create x --table "0 8 mirror core 2 8 sync 2 /dev/loop0 0 /dev/loop1 0"
      
      and mirror resync will immediatelly cause OOps.

      mm: fix page_lock_anon_vma leaving mutex locked · eee0f252
      Hugh Dickins 提交于
      On one machine I've been getting hangs, a page fault's anon_vma_prepare()
      waiting in anon_vma_lock(), other processes waiting for that page's lock.
      
      This is a replay of last year's f1819427 "mm: fix hang on
      anon_vma->root->lock".
      
      The new page_lock_anon_vma() places too much faith in its refcount: when
      it has acquired the mutex_trylock(), it's possible that a racing task in
      anon_vma_alloc() has just reallocated the struct anon_vma, set refcount
      to 1, and is about to reset its anon_vma->root.
      
      Fix this by saving anon_vma->root, and relying on the usual page_mapped()
      check instead of a refcount check: if page is still mapped, the anon_vma
      is still ours; if page is not still mapped, we're no longer interested.

      mm: fix kernel BUG at mm/rmap.c:1017! · 5dbe0af4
      Hugh Dickins 提交于
      I've hit the "address >= vma->vm_end" check in do_page_add_anon_rmap()
      just once.  The stack showed khugepaged allocation trying to compact
      pages: the call to page_add_anon_rmap() coming from remove_migration_pte().
      
      That path holds anon_vma lock, but does not hold mmap_sem: it can
      therefore race with a split_vma(), and in commit 5f70b962 "mmap:
      avoid unnecessary anon_vma lock" we just took away the anon_vma lock
      protection when adjusting vma->vm_end.
      
      I don't think that particular BUG_ON ever caught anything interesting,
      so better replace it by a comment, than reinstate the anon_vma locking.

      tmpfs: fix race between truncate and writepage · 826267cf
      Hugh Dickins 提交于
      While running fsx on tmpfs with a memhog then swapoff, swapoff was hanging
      (interruptibly), repeatedly failing to locate the owner of a 0xff entry in
      the swap_map.
      
      Although shmem_writepage() does abandon when it sees incoming page index
      is beyond eof, there was still a window in which shmem_truncate_range()
      could come in between writepage's dropping lock and updating swap_map,
      find the half-completed swap_map entry, and in trying to free it,
      leave it in a state that swap_shmem_alloc() could not correct.
      
      Arguably a bug in __swap_duplicate()'s and swap_entry_free()'s handling
      of the different cases, but easiest to fix by moving swap_shmem_alloc()
      under cover of the lock.
      
      More interesting than the bug: it's been there since 2.6.33, why could
      I not see it with earlier kernels?  The mmotm of two weeks ago seems to
      have some magic for generating races, this is just one of three I found.
      
      With yesterday's git I first saw this in mainline, bisected in search of
      that magic, but the easy reproducibility evaporated.  Oh well, fix the bug.

      Mike Frysinger 提交于
      This code was mostly developed against a BF54x, so some BF537-specific
      issues were missed.
      
      The PPI block starts at PPI_CONTROL, not PPI_STATUS (which is the reverse
      of the EPPI block).
      
      The MDMA block starts at MDMA_NEXT_DESC_PTR, not MDMA_CONFIG.  Seems the
      sim does not catch misreads here so that'll need to get fixed.
      
      The gptimer block is mostly 32bit regs, not 16bit.  Use the gptimer struct
      to figure that out rather than hardcoding it locally.

      ns: Wire up the setns system call · 7b21fddd
      Eric W. Biederman 提交于
      32bit and 64bit on x86 are tested and working.  The rest I have looked
      at closely and I can't find any problems.
      
      setns is an easy system call to wire up.  It just takes two ints so I
      don't expect any weird architecture porting problems.
      
      While doing this I have noticed that we have some architectures that are
      very slow to get new system calls.  cris seems to be the slowest where
      the last system calls wired up were preadv and pwritev.  avr32 is weird
      in that recvmmsg was wired up but never declared in unistd.h.  frv is
      behind with perf_event_open being the last syscall wired up.  On h8300
      the last system call wired up was epoll_wait.  On m32r the last system
      call wired up was fallocate.  mn10300 has recvmmsg as the last system
      call wired up.  The rest seem to at least have syncfs wired up which was
      new in the 2.6.39.
      
      v2: Most of the architecture support added by Daniel Lezcano <dlezcano@fr.ibm.com>
      v3: ported to v2.6.36-rc4 by: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xmission.com>
      v4: Moved wiring up of the system call to another patch
      v5: ported to v2.6.39-rc6
      v6: rebased onto parisc-next and net-next to avoid syscall  conflicts.
      v7: ported to Linus's latest post 2.6.39 tree.

      Cache xattr security drop check for write v2 · 69b45732
      Andi Kleen 提交于
      Some recent benchmarking on btrfs showed that a major scaling bottleneck
      on large systems on btrfs is currently the xattr lookup on every write.
      
      Why xattr lookup on every write I hear you ask?
      
      write wants to drop suid and security related xattrs that could set o
      capabilities for executables.  To do that it currently looks up
      security.capability on EVERY write (even for non executables) to decide
      whether to drop it or not.
      
      In btrfs this causes an additional tree walk, hitting some per file system
      locks and quite bad scalability. In a simple read workload on a 8S
      system I saw over 90% CPU time in spinlocks related to that.
      
      Chris Mason tells me this is also a problem in ext4, where it hits
      the global mbcache lock.
      
      This patch adds a simple per inode to avoid this problem.  We only
      do the lookup once per file and then if there is no xattr cache
      the decision. All xattr changes clear the flag.
      
      I also used the same flag to avoid the suid check, although
      that one is pretty cheap.
      
      A file system can also set this flag when it creates the inode,
      if it has a cheap way to do so.  This is done for some common file systems
      in followon patches.
      
      With this patch a major part of the lock contention disappears
      for btrfs. Some testing on smaller systems didn't show significant
      performance changes, but at least it helps the larger systems
      and is generally more efficient.
      
      v2: Rename is_sgid. add file system helper.

      rcu: Start RCU kthreads in TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE state · cc3ce517
      Paul E. McKenney 提交于
      Upon creation, kthreads are in TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE state, which can
      result in softlockup warnings.  Because some of RCU's kthreads can
      legitimately be idle indefinitely, start them in TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE
      state in order to avoid those warnings.

      rcu: Remove waitqueue usage for cpu, node, and boost kthreads · 08bca60a
      Peter Zijlstra 提交于
      It is not necessary to use waitqueues for the RCU kthreads because
      we always know exactly which thread is to be awakened.  In addition,
      wake_up() only issues an actual wakeup when there is a thread waiting on
      the queue, which was why there was an extra explicit wake_up_process()
      to get the RCU kthreads started.
      
      Eliminating the waitqueues (and wake_up()) in favor of wake_up_process()
      eliminates the need for the initial wake_up_process() and also shrinks
      the data structure size a bit.  The wakeup logic is placed in a new
      rcu_wait() macro.

      rcu: Avoid acquiring rcu_node locks in timer functions · 8826f3b0
      Paul E. McKenney 提交于
      This commit switches manipulations of the rcu_node ->wakemask field
      to atomic operations, which allows rcu_cpu_kthread_timer() to avoid
      acquiring the rcu_node lock.  This should avoid the following lockdep

      An atomic_or() function is needed by TREE_RCU to avoid deadlock, so
      add a generic version.
