In split page table lock case, we embed spinlock_t into struct page. For obvious reason, we don't want to increase size of struct page if spinlock_t is too big, like with DEBUG_SPINLOCK or DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC or on -rt kernel. So we disable split page table lock, if spinlock_t is too big. This patchset allows to allocate the lock dynamically if spinlock_t is big. In this page->ptl is used to store pointer to spinlock instead of spinlock itself. It costs additional cache line for indirect access, but fix page fault scalability for multi-threaded applications. LOCK_STAT depends on DEBUG_SPINLOCK, so on current kernel enabling LOCK_STAT to analyse scalability issues breaks scalability. ;) The patchset mostly fixes this. Results for ./thp_memscale -c 80 -b 512M on 4-socket machine: baseline, no CONFIG_LOCK_STAT: 9.115460703 seconds time elapsed baseline, CONFIG_LOCK_STAT=y: 53.890567123 seconds time elapsed patched, no CONFIG_LOCK_STAT: 8.852250368 seconds time elapsed patched, CONFIG_LOCK_STAT=y: 11.069770759 seconds time elapsed Patch count is scary, but most of them trivial. Overview: Patches 1-4 Few bug fixes. No dependencies to other patches. Probably should applied as soon as possible. Patch 5 Changes signature of pgtable_page_ctor(). We will use it for dynamic lock allocation, so it can fail. Patches 6-8 Add missing constructor/destructor calls on few archs. It's fixes NR_PAGETABLE accounting and prepare to use split ptl. Patches 9-33 Add pgtable_page_ctor() fail handling to all archs. Patches 34 Finally adds support of dynamically-allocated page->pte. Also contains documentation for split page table lock. This patch (of 34): I've missed that we preallocate few pmds on pgd_alloc() if X86_PAE enabled. Let's add missed constructor/destructor calls. I haven't noticed it during testing since prep_new_page() clears page->mapping and therefore page->ptl. It's effectively equal to spin_lock_init(&page->ptl). Signed-off-by: NKirill A.

The get_dumpable() return value is not boolean. Most users of the function actually want to be testing for non-SUID_DUMP_USER(1) rather than SUID_DUMP_DISABLE(0). The SUID_DUMP_ROOT(2) is also considered a protected state. Almost all places did this correctly, excepting the two places fixed in this patch. Wrong logic: if (dumpable == SUID_DUMP_DISABLE) { /* be protective */ } or if (dumpable == 0) { /* be protective */ } or if (!dumpable) { /* be protective */ } Correct logic: if (dumpable != SUID_DUMP_USER) { /* be protective */ } or if (dumpable != 1) { /* be protective */ } Without this patch, if the system had set the sysctl fs/suid_dumpable=2, a user was able to ptrace attach to processes that had dropped privileges to that user. (This may have been partially mitigated if Yama was enabled.) The macros have been moved into the file that declares get/set_dumpable(), which means things like the ia64 code can see them too.

The hot-Pluggable field in SRAT specifies which memory is hotpluggable. As we mentioned before, if hotpluggable memory is used by the kernel, it cannot be hot-removed. So memory hotplug users may want to set all hotpluggable memory in ZONE_MOVABLE so that the kernel won't use it. Memory hotplug users may also set a node as movable node, which has ZONE_MOVABLE only, so that the whole node can be hot-removed. But the kernel cannot use memory in ZONE_MOVABLE. By doing this, the kernel cannot use memory in movable nodes. This will cause NUMA performance down. And other users may be unhappy. So we need a way to allow users to enable and disable this functionality. In this patch, we introduce movable_node boot option to allow users to choose to not to consume hotpluggable memory at early boot time and later we can set it as ZONE_MOVABLE. To achieve this, the movable_node boot option will control the memblock allocation direction. That said, after memblock is ready, before SRAT is parsed, we should allocate memory near the kernel image as we explained in the previous patches. So if movable_node boot option is set, the kernel does the following: 1. After memblock is ready, make memblock allocate memory bottom up. 2. After SRAT is parsed, make memblock behave as default, allocate memory top down. Users can specify "movable_node" in kernel commandline to enable this functionality. For those who don't use memory hotplug or who don't want to lose their NUMA performance, just don't specify anything. The kernel will work as before.

The Linux kernel cannot migrate pages used by the kernel. As a result, kernel pages cannot be hot-removed. So we cannot allocate hotpluggable memory for the kernel. In a memory hotplug system, any numa node the kernel resides in should be unhotpluggable. And for a modern server, each node could have at least 16GB memory. So memory around the kernel image is highly likely unhotpluggable. ACPI SRAT (System Resource Affinity Table) contains the memory hotplug info. But before SRAT is parsed, memblock has already started to allocate memory for the kernel. So we need to prevent memblock from doing this. So direct memory mapping page tables setup is the case. init_mem_mapping() is called before SRAT is parsed. To prevent page tables being allocated within hotpluggable memory, we will use bottom-up direction to allocate page tables from the end of kernel image to the higher memory. Note: As for allocating page tables in lower memory, TJ said: : This is an optional behavior which is triggered by a very specific kernel : boot param, which I suspect is gonna need to stick around to support : memory hotplug in the current setup unless we add another layer of address : translation to support memory hotplug. As for page tables may occupy too much lower memory if using 4K mapping (CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC and CONFIG_KMEMCHECK both disable using >4k pages), TJ said: : But as I said in the same paragraph, parsing SRAT earlier doesn't solve : the problem in itself either. Ignoring the option if 4k mapping is : required and memory consumption would be prohibitive should work, no? : Something like that would be necessary if we're gonna worry about cases : like this no matter how we implement it, but, frankly, I'm not sure this : is something worth worrying about.

Consider a kernel crash in a module, simulated the following way: static int my_init(void) { char *map = (void *)0x5; *map = 3; return 0; } module_init(my_init); When we turn off FRAME_POINTERs, the very first instruction in that function causes a BUG. The problem is that we print IP in the BUG report using %pB (from printk_address). And %pB decrements the pointer by one to fix printing addresses of functions with tail calls. This was added in commit 71f9e598 ("x86, dumpstack: Use %pB format specifier for stack trace") to fix the call stack printouts. So instead of correct output: BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000005 IP: [<ffffffffa01ac000>] my_init+0x0/0x10 [pb173] We get: BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000005 IP: [<ffffffffa0152000>] 0xffffffffa0151fff To fix that, we use %pS only for stack addresses printouts (via newly added printk_stack_address) and %pB for regs->ip (via printk_address). I.e. we revert to the old behaviour for all except call stacks. And since from all those reliable is 1, we remove that parameter from printk_address.

This reverts commit 8eba1842. uv_trace() is not used by anything, nor is uv_trace_nmi_func, nor uv_trace_func. That's not how we do instrumentation code in the kernel: we add tracepoints, printk()s, etc. so that everyone not just those with magic kernel modules can debug a system. So remove this unused (and misguied) piece of code.

atomic* value is signed value, and atomic* functions need also process signed value (parameter value, and return value), so 32-bit arm need use 'long long' instead of 'u64'. After replacement, it will also fix a bug for atomic64_add_negative(): "u64 is never less than 0". The modifications are: in vim, use "1,% s/\<u64\>/long long/g" command. remove '__aligned(8)' which is useless for 64-bit. be sure of 80 column limitation after replacement.

If we're running a kernel compiled with SMP_ON_UP=y and the hardware only supports UP operation there isn't any smp_cross_call function assigned. Unfortunately, we call smp_cross_call() unconditionally in arch_irq_work_raise() and crash the kernel on UP devices. Check to make sure we're running on an SMP device before calling smp_cross_call() here.
