To check whether free objects exist or not precisely, we need to grab a lock. But, accuracy isn't that important because race window would be even small and if there is too much free object, cache reaper would reap it. So, this patch makes the check for free object exisistence not to hold a lock. This will reduce lock contention in heavily allocation case. Note that until now, n->shared can be freed during the processing by writing slabinfo, but, with some trick in this patch, we can access it freely within interrupt disabled period. Below is the result of concurrent allocation/free in slab allocation benchmark made by Christoph a long time ago. I make the output simpler. The number shows cycle count during alloc/free respectively so less is better. * Before Kmalloc N*alloc N*free(32): Average=248/966 Kmalloc N*alloc N*free(64): Average=261/949 Kmalloc N*alloc N*free(128): Average=314/1016 Kmalloc N*alloc N*free(256): Average=741/1061 Kmalloc N*alloc N*free(512): Average=1246/1152 Kmalloc N*alloc N*free(1024): Average=2437/1259 Kmalloc N*alloc N*free(2048): Average=4980/1800 Kmalloc N*alloc N*free(4096): Average=9000/2078 * After Kmalloc N*alloc N*free(32): Average=344/792 Kmalloc N*alloc N*free(64): Average=347/882 Kmalloc N*alloc N*free(128): Average=390/959 Kmalloc N*alloc N*free(256): Average=393/1067 Kmalloc N*alloc N*free(512): Average=683/1229 Kmalloc N*alloc N*free(1024): Average=1295/1325 Kmalloc N*alloc N*free(2048): Average=2513/1664 Kmalloc N*alloc N*free(4096): Average=4742/2172 It shows that allocation performance decreases for the object size up to 128 and it may be due to extra checks in cache_alloc_refill(). But, with considering improvement of free performance, net result looks the same. Result for other size class looks very promising, roughly, 50% performance improvement.

Until now, cache growing makes a free slab on node's slab list and then we can allocate free objects from it. This necessarily requires to hold a node lock which is very contended. If we refill cpu cache before attaching it to node's slab list, we can avoid holding a node lock as much as possible because this newly allocated slab is only visible to the current task. This will reduce lock contention. Below is the result of concurrent allocation/free in slab allocation benchmark made by Christoph a long time ago. I make the output simpler. The number shows cycle count during alloc/free respectively so less is better. * Before Kmalloc N*alloc N*free(32): Average=355/750 Kmalloc N*alloc N*free(64): Average=452/812 Kmalloc N*alloc N*free(128): Average=559/1070 Kmalloc N*alloc N*free(256): Average=1176/980 Kmalloc N*alloc N*free(512): Average=1939/1189 Kmalloc N*alloc N*free(1024): Average=3521/1278 Kmalloc N*alloc N*free(2048): Average=7152/1838 Kmalloc N*alloc N*free(4096): Average=13438/2013 * After Kmalloc N*alloc N*free(32): Average=248/966 Kmalloc N*alloc N*free(64): Average=261/949 Kmalloc N*alloc N*free(128): Average=314/1016 Kmalloc N*alloc N*free(256): Average=741/1061 Kmalloc N*alloc N*free(512): Average=1246/1152 Kmalloc N*alloc N*free(1024): Average=2437/1259 Kmalloc N*alloc N*free(2048): Average=4980/1800 Kmalloc N*alloc N*free(4096): Average=9000/2078 It shows that contention is reduced for all the object sizes and performance increases by 30 ~ 40%.

This is a preparation step to implement lockless allocation path when there is no free objects in kmem_cache. What we'd like to do here is to refill cpu cache without holding a node lock. To accomplish this purpose, refill should be done after new slab allocation but before attaching the slab to the management list. So, this patch separates cache_grow() to two parts, allocation and attaching to the list in order to add some code inbetween them in the following patch.

Currently, cache_grow() assumes that allocated page's nodeid would be same with parameter nodeid which is used for allocation request. If we discard this assumption, we can handle fallback_alloc() case gracefully. So, this patch makes cache_grow() handle the page allocated on arbitrary node and clean-up relevant code.

Currently, determination to free a slab is done whenever each freed object is put into the slab. This has a following problem. Assume free_limit = 10 and nr_free = 9. Free happens as following sequence and nr_free changes as following. free(become a free slab) free(not become a free slab) nr_free: 9 -> 10 (at first free) -> 11 (at second free) If we try to check if we can free current slab or not on each object free, we can't free any slab in this situation because current slab isn't a free slab when nr_free exceed free_limit (at second free) even if there is a free slab. However, if we check it lastly, we can free 1 free slab. This problem would cause to keep too much memory in the slab subsystem. This patch try to fix it by checking number of free object after all free work is done. If there is free slab at that time, we can free slab as much as possible so we keep free slab as minimal.

Initial attemp to remove BAD_ALIEN_MAGIC is once reverted by 'commit edcad250 ("Revert "slab: remove BAD_ALIEN_MAGIC"")' because it causes a problem on m68k which has many node but !CONFIG_NUMA. In this case, although alien cache isn't used at all but to cope with some initialization path, garbage value is used and that is BAD_ALIEN_MAGIC. Now, this patch set use_alien_caches to 0 when !CONFIG_NUMA, there is no initialization path problem so we don't need BAD_ALIEN_MAGIC at all. So remove it.

While processing concurrent allocation, SLAB could be contended a lot because it did a lots of work with holding a lock. This patchset try to reduce the number of critical section to reduce lock contention. Major changes are lockless decision to allocate more slab and lockless cpu cache refill from the newly allocated slab. Below is the result of concurrent allocation/free in slab allocation benchmark made by Christoph a long time ago. I make the output simpler.

This patch (of 11): If we don't hold neither the slab_mutex nor the node lock, node's shared array cache could be freed and re-populated. If __kmem_cache_shrink() is called at the same time, it will call drain_array() with n->shared without holding node lock so problem can happen. This patch fix the situation by holding the node lock before trying to drain the shared array. In addition, add a debug check to confirm that n->shared access race doesn't exist.

When activating a static object we need make sure that the object is tracked in the object tracker. If it is a non-static object then the activation is illegal. In previous implementation, each subsystem need take care of this in their fixup callbacks. Actually we can put it into debugobjects core. Thus we can save duplicated code, and have *pure* fixup callbacks. To achieve this, a new callback "is_static_object" is introduced to let the type specific code decide whether a object is static or not. If yes, we take it into object tracker, otherwise give warning and invoke fixup callback. This change has paassed debugobjects selftest, and I also do some test with all debugobjects supports enabled. At last, I have a concern about the fixups that can it change the object which is in incorrect state on fixup? Because the 'addr' may not point to any valid object if a non-static object is not tracked. Then Change such object can overwrite someone's memory and cause unexpected behaviour. For example, the timer_fixup_activate bind timer to function stub_timer.

I am going to introduce debugobjects infrastructure to USB subsystem. But before this, I found the code of debugobjects could be improved. This patchset will make fixup functions return bool type instead of int. Because fixup only need report success or no. boolean is the 'real' type. This patch (of 7): The object debugging infrastructure core provides some fixup callbacks for the subsystem who use it. These callbacks are called from the debug code whenever a problem in debug_object_init is detected. And debugobjects core suppose them returns 1 when the fixup was successful, otherwise 0. So the return type is boolean. A bad thing is that debug_object_fixup use the return value for arithmetic operation. It confused me that what is the reall return type. Reading over the whole code, I found some place do use the return value incorrectly(see next patch). So why use bool type instead?

All references to timespec_add_safe() now use timespec64_add_safe(). The plan is to replace struct timespec references with struct timespec64 throughout the kernel as timespec is not y2038 safe. Drop timespec_add_safe() and use timespec64_add_safe() for all architectures.

struct timespec is not y2038 safe. Even though timespec might be sufficient to represent timeouts, use struct timespec64 here as the plan is to get rid of all timespec reference in the kernel. The patch transitions the common functions: poll_select_set_timeout() and select_estimate_accuracy() to use timespec64. And, all the syscalls that use these functions are transitioned in the same patch. The restart block parameters for poll uses monotonic time. Use timespec64 here as well to assign timeout value. This parameter in the restart block need not change because this only holds the monotonic timestamp at which timeout should occur. And, unsigned long data type should be big enough for this timestamp. The system call interfaces will be handled in a separate series. Compat interfaces need not change as timespec64 is an alias to struct timespec on a 64 bit system.

timespec64_add_safe() has been defined in time64.h for 64 bit systems. But, 32 bit systems only have an extern function prototype defined. Provide a definition for the above function. The function will be necessary as part of y2038 changes. struct timespec is not y2038 safe. All references to timespec will be replaced by struct timespec64. The function is meant to be a replacement for timespec_add_safe(). The implementation is similar to timespec_add_safe().

Inotify instance is destroyed when all references to it are dropped. That not only means that the corresponding file descriptor needs to be closed but also that all corresponding instance marks are freed (as each mark holds a reference to the inotify instance). However marks are freed only after SRCU period ends which can take some time and thus if user rapidly creates and frees inotify instances, number of existing inotify instances can exceed max_user_instances limit although from user point of view there is always at most one existing instance. Thus inotify_init() returns EMFILE error which is hard to justify from user point of view. This problem is exposed by LTP inotify06 testcase on some machines. We fix the problem by making sure all group marks are properly freed while destroying inotify instance. We wait for SRCU period to end in that path anyway since we have to make sure there is no event being added to the instance while we are tearing down the instance. So it takes only some plumbing to allow for marks to be destroyed in that path as well and not from a dedicated work item.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace由 Linus Torvalds 提交于
Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt: "This includes two new updates for the ftrace infrastructure. - With the changing of the code for filtering events by pid, from a list of pids to a bitmask, we can now easily implement following forks. With a new tracing option "event-fork" which, when set, will have tasks with pids in set_event_pid, when they fork, to have their child pids added to set_event_pid and the child will be traced as well. Note, if "event-fork" is set and a task with its pid in set_event_pid exits, its pid will be removed from set_event_pid - The addition of Tom Zanussi's hist triggers. This includes a very thorough documentatino on how to use the hist triggers with events. This introduces a quick and easy way to get histogram data from events and their fields. Some other cleanups and updates were added as well. Like Masami Hiramatsu added test cases for the event trigger and hist triggers.
