      classmate-laptop: little optimization for cmpc_rfkill_block · 698e1641
      Herton Ronaldo Krzesinski 提交于
      We don't need to call bios/acpi (cmpc_set_rfkill_wlan) if the blocked
      state is already set to the same value (little optimization). This can
      happen for example if we initialize the module with same initial
      hardware state (rfkill core always call cmpc_rfkill_block on
      initialization here).
      
      Also GWRI method only accepts 0 or 1 for setting rfkill block, as can be
      seen on AML code from acpidump->DSDT from a classmate sample I have, so
      should be fine setting state only to 0 or 1 directly.

      WMI: Cater for multiple events with same GUID · 58f6425e
      Colin King 提交于
      WMI data blocks can contain WMI events with the same GUID but with
      different notifiy_ids, for example volume up/down hotkeys.
      This patch enables a single event handler to be registered and
      unregistered against all events with same GUID but different
      notify_ids.  Since an event handler is passed the notify_id of
      an event it can can differentiate between the different events.
      
      The patch also ensures we only register and unregister a device per
      unique GUID.

      fs: scale mntget/mntput · b3e19d92
      Nick Piggin 提交于
      The problem that this patch aims to fix is vfsmount refcounting scalability.
      We need to take a reference on the vfsmount for every successful path lookup,
      which often go to the same mount point.
      
      The fundamental difficulty is that a "simple" reference count can never be made
      scalable, because any time a reference is dropped, we must check whether that
      was the last reference. To do that requires communication with all other CPUs
      that may have taken a reference count.
      
      We can make refcounts more scalable in a couple of ways, involving keeping
      distributed counters, and checking for the global-zero condition less
      frequently.
      
      - check the global sum once every interval (this will delay zero detection
        for some interval, so it's probably a showstopper for vfsmounts).
      
      - keep a local count and only taking the global sum when local reaches 0 (this
        is difficult for vfsmounts, because we can't hold preempt off for the life of
        a reference, so a counter would need to be per-thread or tied strongly to a
        particular CPU which requires more locking).
      
      - keep a local difference of increments and decrements, which allows us to sum
        the total difference and hence find the refcount when summing all CPUs. Then,
        keep a single integer "long" refcount for slow and long lasting references,
        and only take the global sum of local counters when the long refcount is 0.
      
      This last scheme is what I implemented here. Attached mounts and process root
      and working directory references are "long" references, and everything else is
      a short reference.
      
      This allows scalable vfsmount references during path walking over mounted
      subtrees and unattached (lazy umounted) mounts with processes still running
      in them.
      
      This results in one fewer atomic op in the fastpath: mntget is now just a
      per-CPU inc, rather than an atomic inc; and mntput just requires a spinlock
      and non-atomic decrement in the common case. However code is otherwise bigger
      and heavier, so single threaded performance is basically a wash.

      fs: implement faster dentry memcmp · 9d55c369
      Nick Piggin 提交于
      The standard memcmp function on a Westmere system shows up hot in
      profiles in the `git diff` workload (both parallel and single threaded),
      and it is likely due to the costs associated with trapping into
      microcode, and little opportunity to improve memory access (dentry
      name is not likely to take up more than a cacheline).
      
      So replace it with an open-coded byte comparison. This increases code
      size by 8 bytes in the critical __d_lookup_rcu function, but the
      speedup is huge, averaging 10 runs of each:
      
      git diff st   user   sys   elapsed  CPU
      before        1.15   2.57  3.82      97.1
      after         1.14   2.35  3.61      96.8
      
      git diff mt   user   sys   elapsed  CPU
      before        1.27   3.85  1.46     349
      after         1.26   3.54  1.43     333
      
      Elapsed time for single threaded git diff at 95.0% confidence:
              -0.21  +/- 0.01
              -5.45% +/- 0.24%
      
      It's -0.66% +/- 0.06% elapsed time on my Opteron, so rep cmp costs on the
      fam10h seem to be relatively smaller, but there is still a win.

      This could easily be extended to put acls under RCU and check them
      under seqlock, if need be. But this implementation is enough to show
      the rcu-walk aware permissions code for path lookups is working, and
      will handle cases where there are no ACLs or ACLs in just the final
      element.

      fs: cache optimise dentry and inode for rcu-walk · 44a7d7a8
      Nick Piggin 提交于
      Put dentry and inode fields into top of data structure.  This allows RCU path
      traversal to perform an RCU dentry lookup in a path walk by touching only the
      first 56 bytes of the dentry.
      
      We also fit in 8 bytes of inline name in the first 64 bytes, so for short
      names, only 64 bytes needs to be touched to perform the lookup. We should
      get rid of the hash->prev pointer from the first 64 bytes, and fit 16 bytes
      of name in there, which will take care of 81% rather than 32% of the kernel
      tree.
      
      inode is also rearranged so that RCU lookup will only touch a single cacheline
      in the inode, plus one in the i_ops structure.
      
      This is important for directory component lookups in RCU path walking. In the
      kernel source, directory names average is around 6 chars, so this works.
      
      When we reach the last element of the lookup, we need to lock it and take its
      refcount which requires another cacheline access.
      
      Align dentry and inode operations structs, so members will be at predictable
      offsets and we can group common operations into head of structure.

      fs: dcache remove d_mounted · 5f57cbcc
      Nick Piggin 提交于
      Rather than keep a d_mounted count in the dentry, set a dentry flag instead.
      The flag can be cleared by checking the hash table to see if there are any
      mounts left, which is not time critical because it is performed at detach time.
      
      The mounted state of a dentry is only used to speculatively take a look in the
      mount hash table if it is set -- before following the mount, vfsmount lock is
      taken and mount re-checked without races.
      
      This saves 4 bytes on 32-bit, nothing on 64-bit but it does provide a hole I
      might use later (and some configs have larger than 32-bit spinlocks which might
      make use of the hole).
      
      Autofs4 conversion and changelog by Ian Kent <raven@themaw.net>:
      In autofs4, when expring direct (or offset) mounts we need to ensure that we
      block user path walks into the autofs mount, which is covered by another mount.
      To do this we clear the mounted status so that follows stop before walking into
      the mount and are essentially blocked until the expire is completed. The
      automount daemon still finds the correct dentry for the umount due to the
      follow mount logic in fs/autofs4/root.c:autofs4_follow_link(), which is set as
      an inode operation for direct and offset mounts only and is called following
      the lookup that stopped at the covered mount.
      
      At the end of the expire the covering mount probably has gone away so the
      mounted status need not be restored. But we need to check this and only restore
      the mounted status if the expire failed.

      fs: fs_struct use seqlock · c28cc364
      Nick Piggin 提交于
      Use a seqlock in the fs_struct to enable us to take an atomic copy of the
      complete cwd and root paths. Use this in the RCU lookup path to avoid a
      thread-shared spinlock in RCU lookup operations.
      
      Multi-threaded apps may now perform path lookups with scalability matching
      multi-process apps. Operations such as stat(2) become very scalable for
      multi-threaded workload.

      fs: rcu-walk for path lookup · 31e6b01f
      Nick Piggin 提交于
      Perform common cases of path lookups without any stores or locking in the
      ancestor dentry elements. This is called rcu-walk, as opposed to the current
      algorithm which is a refcount based walk, or ref-walk.
      
      This results in far fewer atomic operations on every path element,
      significantly improving path lookup performance. It also avoids cacheline
      bouncing on common dentries, significantly improving scalability.
      
      The overall design is like this:
      * LOOKUP_RCU is set in nd->flags, which distinguishes rcu-walk from ref-walk.
      * Take the RCU lock for the entire path walk, starting with the acquiring
        of the starting path (eg. root/cwd/fd-path). So now dentry refcounts are
        not required for dentry persistence.
      * synchronize_rcu is called when unregistering a filesystem, so we can
        access d_ops and i_ops during rcu-walk.
      * Similarly take the vfsmount lock for the entire path walk. So now mnt
        refcounts are not required for persistence. Also we are free to perform mount
        lookups, and to assume dentry mount points and mount roots are stable up and
        down the path.
      * Have a per-dentry seqlock to protect the dentry name, parent, and inode,
        so we can load this tuple atomically, and also check whether any of its
        members have changed.
      * Dentry lookups (based on parent, candidate string tuple) recheck the parent
        sequence after the child is found in case anything changed in the parent
        during the path walk.
      * inode is also RCU protected so we can load d_inode and use the inode for
        limited things.
      * i_mode, i_uid, i_gid can be tested for exec permissions during path walk.
      * i_op can be loaded.
      
      When we reach the destination dentry, we lock it, recheck lookup sequence,
      and increment its refcount and mountpoint refcount. RCU and vfsmount locks
      are dropped. This is termed "dropping rcu-walk". If the dentry refcount does
      not match, we can not drop rcu-walk gracefully at the current point in the
      lokup, so instead return -ECHILD (for want of a better errno). This signals the
      path walking code to re-do the entire lookup with a ref-walk.
      
      Aside from the final dentry, there are other situations that may be encounted
      where we cannot continue rcu-walk. In that case, we drop rcu-walk (ie. take
      a reference on the last good dentry) and continue with a ref-walk. Again, if
      we can drop rcu-walk gracefully, we return -ECHILD and do the whole lookup
      using ref-walk. But it is very important that we can continue with ref-walk
      for most cases, particularly to avoid the overhead of double lookups, and to
      gain the scalability advantages on common path elements (like cwd and root).
      
      The cases where rcu-walk cannot continue are:
      * NULL dentry (ie. any uncached path element)
      * parent with d_inode->i_op->permission or ACLs
      * dentries with d_revalidate
      * Following links
      
      In future patches, permission checks and d_revalidate become rcu-walk aware. It
      may be possible eventually to make following links rcu-walk aware.
      
      Uncached path elements will always require dropping to ref-walk mode, at the
      very least because i_mutex needs to be grabbed, and objects allocated.

      fs: icache RCU free inodes · fa0d7e3d
      Nick Piggin 提交于
      RCU free the struct inode. This will allow:
      
      - Subsequent store-free path walking patch. The inode must be consulted for
        permissions when walking, so an RCU inode reference is a must.
      - sb_inode_list_lock to be moved inside i_lock because sb list walkers who want
        to take i_lock no longer need to take sb_inode_list_lock to walk the list in
        the first place. This will simplify and optimize locking.
      - Could remove some nested trylock loops in dcache code
      - Could potentially simplify things a bit in VM land. Do not need to take the
        page lock to follow page->mapping.
      
      The downsides of this is the performance cost of using RCU. In a simple
      creat/unlink microbenchmark, performance drops by about 10% due to inability to
      reuse cache-hot slab objects. As iterations increase and RCU freeing starts
      kicking over, this increases to about 20%.
      
      In cases where inode lifetimes are longer (ie. many inodes may be allocated
      during the average life span of a single inode), a lot of this cache reuse is
      not applicable, so the regression caused by this patch is smaller.
      
      The cache-hot regression could largely be avoided by using SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU,
      however this adds some complexity to list walking and store-free path walking,
      so I prefer to implement this at a later date, if it is shown to be a win in
      real situations. I haven't found a regression in any non-micro benchmark so I
      doubt it will be a problem.

      prune_one_dentry can avoid quite a bit of locking in the common case where
      ancestors have an elevated refcount. Alternatively, we could have gone the
      other way and made fewer trylocks in the case where d_count goes to zero, but
      is probably less common.

      dget_locked was a shortcut to avoid the lazy lru manipulation when we already
      held dcache_lock (lru manipulation was relatively cheap at that point).
      However, how that the lru lock is an innermost one, we never hold it at any
      caller, so the lock cost can now be avoided. We already have well working lazy
      dcache LRU, so it should be fine to defer LRU manipulations to scan time.
