Convert ext3/ext4 dir reads to use on-demand readahead. Readahead for dirs operates _not_ on file level, but on blockdev level. This makes a difference when the data blocks are not continuous. And the read routine is somehow opaque: there's no handy info about the status of current page. So a simplified call scheme is employed: to call into readahead whenever the current page falls out of readahead windows.

This is a minimal readahead algorithm that aims to replace the current one. It is more flexible and reliable, while maintaining almost the same behavior and performance. Also it is full integrated with adaptive readahead. It is designed to be called on demand: - on a missing page, to do synchronous readahead - on a lookahead page, to do asynchronous readahead In this way it eliminated the awkward workarounds for cache hit/miss, readahead thrashing, retried read, and unaligned read. It also adopts the data structure introduced by adaptive readahead, parameterizes readahead pipelining with `lookahead_index', and reduces the current/ahead windows to one single window. HEURISTICS The logic deals with four cases: - sequential-next found a consistent readahead window, so push it forward - random standalone small read, so read as is - sequential-first create a new readahead window for a sequential/oversize request - lookahead-clueless hit a lookahead page not associated with the readahead window, so create a new readahead window and ramp it up In each case, three parameters are determined: - readahead index: where the next readahead begins - readahead size: how much to readahead - lookahead size: when to do the next readahead (for pipelining) BEHAVIORS The old behaviors are maximally preserved for trivial sequential/random reads. Notable changes are: - It no longer imposes strict sequential checks. It might help some interleaved cases, and clustered random reads. It does introduce risks of a random lookahead hit triggering an unexpected readahead. But in general it is more likely to do good than to do evil. - Interleaved reads are supported in a minimal way. Their chances of being detected and proper handled are still low. - Readahead thrashings are better handled. The current readahead leads to tiny average I/O sizes, because it never turn back for the thrashed pages. They have to be fault in by do_generic_mapping_read() one by one. Whereas the on-demand readahead will redo readahead for them. OVERHEADS The new code reduced the overheads of - excessively calling the readahead routine on small sized reads (the current readahead code insists on seeing all requests) - doing a lot of pointless page-cache lookups for small cached files (the current readahead only turns itself off after 256 cache hits, unfortunately most files are < 1MB, so never see that chance) That accounts for speedup of - 0.3% on 1-page sequential reads on sparse file - 1.2% on 1-page cache hot sequential reads - 3.2% on 256-page cache hot sequential reads - 1.3% on cache hot `tar /lib` However, it does introduce one extra page-cache lookup per cache miss, which impacts random reads slightly. That's 1% overheads for 1-page random reads on sparse file. PERFORMANCE The basic benchmark setup is - 2.6.20 kernel with on-demand readahead - 1MB max readahead size - 2.9GHz Intel Core 2 CPU - 2GB memory - 160G/8M Hitachi SATA II 7200 RPM disk The benchmarks show that - it maintains the same performance for trivial sequential/random reads - sysbench/OLTP performance on MySQL gains up to 8% - performance on readahead thrashing gains up to 3 times iozone throughput (KB/s): roughly the same ========================================== iozone -c -t1 -s 4096m -r 64k 2.6.20 on-demand gain first run " Initial write " 61437.27 64521.53 +5.0% " Rewrite " 47893.02 48335.20 +0.9% " Read " 62111.84 62141.49 +0.0% " Re-read " 62242.66 62193.17 -0.1% " Reverse Read " 50031.46 49989.79 -0.1% " Stride read " 8657.61 8652.81 -0.1% " Random read " 13914.28 13898.23 -0.1% " Mixed workload " 19069.27 19033.32 -0.2% " Random write " 14849.80 14104.38 -5.0% " Pwrite " 62955.30 65701.57 +4.4% " Pread " 62209.99 62256.26 +0.1% second run " Initial write " 60810.31 66258.69 +9.0% " Rewrite " 49373.89 57833.66 +17.1% " Read " 62059.39 62251.28 +0.3% " Re-read " 62264.32 62256.82 -0.0% " Reverse Read " 49970.96 50565.72 +1.2% " Stride read " 8654.81 8638.45 -0.2% " Random read " 13901.44 13949.91 +0.3% " Mixed workload " 19041.32 19092.04 +0.3% " Random write " 14019.99 14161.72 +1.0% " Pwrite " 64121.67 68224.17 +6.4% " Pread " 62225.08 62274.28 +0.1% In summary, writes are unstable, reads are pretty close on average: access pattern 2.6.20 on-demand gain Read 62085.61 62196.38 +0.2% Re-read 62253.49 62224.99 -0.0% Reverse Read 50001.21 50277.75 +0.6% Stride read 8656.21 8645.63 -0.1% Random read 13907.86 13924.07 +0.1% Mixed workload 19055.29 19062.68 +0.0% Pread 62217.53 62265.27 +0.1% aio-stress: roughly the same ============================ aio-stress -l -s4096 -r128 -t1 -o1 knoppix511-dvd-cn.iso aio-stress -l -s4096 -r128 -t1 -o3 knoppix511-dvd-cn.iso 2.6.20 on-demand delta sequential 92.57s 92.54s -0.0% random 311.87s 312.15s +0.1% sysbench fileio: roughly the same ================================= sysbench --test=fileio --file-io-mode=async --file-test-mode=rndrw \ --file-total-size=4G --file-block-size=64K \ --num-threads=001 --max-requests=10000 --max-time=900 run threads 2.6.20 on-demand delta first run 1 59.1974s 59.2262s +0.0% 2 58.0575s 58.2269s +0.3% 4 48.0545s 47.1164s -2.0% 8 41.0684s 41.2229s +0.4% 16 35.8817s 36.4448s +1.6% 32 32.6614s 32.8240s +0.5% 64 23.7601s 24.1481s +1.6% 128 24.3719s 23.8225s -2.3% 256 23.2366s 22.0488s -5.1% second run 1 59.6720s 59.5671s -0.2% 8 41.5158s 41.9541s +1.1% 64 25.0200s 23.9634s -4.2% 256 22.5491s 20.9486s -7.1% Note that the numbers are not very stable because of the writes.

Some investigations show that - MySQL is accessing the db file non-uniformly: some parts are more hot than others - It is mostly doing 4-page random reads, and sometimes doing two reads in a row, the latter one triggers a 16-page readahead. - The on-demand readahead leaves many lookahead pages (flagged PG_readahead) there. Many of them will be hit, and trigger more readahead pages. Which might save more seeks. - Naturally, the readahead windows tend to lie in hot areas, and the lookahead pages in hot areas is more likely to be hit. - The more overall read density, the more possible gain. That also explains the adaptive readahead tricks for clustered random reads. readahead thrashing: 3 times better =================================== We boot kernel with "mem=128m single", and start a 100KB/s stream on every second, until reaching 200 streams. max throughput min avg I/O size 2.6.20: 5MB/s 16KB on-demand: 15MB/s 140KB Signed-off-by: NFengguang Wu <wfg@mail.ustc.edu.cn> Cc: Steven Pratt <slpratt@austin.ibm.com> Cc: Ram Pai <linuxram@us.ibm.com> Cc: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au> Signed-off-by: NAndrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Add look-ahead support to __do_page_cache_readahead(). It works by - mark the Nth backwards page with PG_readahead, (which instructs the page's first reader to invoke readahead) - and only do the marking for newly allocated pages. (to prevent blindly doing readahead on already cached pages) Look-ahead is a technique to achieve I/O pipelining: While the application is working through a chunk of cached pages, the kernel reads-ahead the next chunk of pages _before_ time of need. It effectively hides low level I/O latencies to high level applications.

There is another bug recently introduced into the ecryptfs_setattr() function in 2.6.22. eCryptfs will attempt to treat special files like regular eCryptfs files on chmod, chown, and so forth. This leads to a NULL pointer dereference. This patch validates that the file is a regular file before proceeding with operations related to the inode's crypt_stat.

Optimize show_stat to collect per-irq information just once. On x86_64, with newer kernel versions, kstat_irqs is a bit of a problem. On every call to kstat_irqs, the process brings in per-cpu data from all online cpus. Doing this for NR_IRQS, which is now 256 + 32 * NR_CPUS results in (256+32*63) * 63 remote cpu references on a 64 cpu config. Considering the fact that we already compute this value per-cpu, we can save on the remote references as below.

At present, if a user mode helper is running while usermodehelper_pm_callback() is executed, the helper may be frozen and the completion in call_usermodehelper_exec() won't be completed until user space processes are thawed. As a result, the freezing of kernel threads may fail, which is not desirable. Prevent this from happening by introducing a counter of running user mode helpers and allowing usermodehelper_pm_callback() to succeed for action = PM_HIBERNATION_PREPARE or action = PM_SUSPEND_PREPARE only if there are no helpers running. [Namely, usermodehelper_pm_callback() waits for at most RUNNING_HELPERS_TIMEOUT for the number of running helpers to become zero and fails if that doesn't happen.] Special thanks to Uli Luckas <u.luckas@road.de>, Pavel Machek <pavel@ucw.cz> and Oleg Nesterov <oleg@tv-sign.ru> for reviewing the previous versions of this patch and for very useful comments.

Kernel threads should not have TIF_FREEZE set when user space processes are being frozen, since otherwise some of them might be frozen prematurely. To prevent this from happening we can (1) make exit_mm() unset TIF_FREEZE unconditionally just after clearing tsk->mm and (2) make try_to_freeze_tasks() check if p->mm is different from zero and PF_BORROWED_MM is unset in p->flags when user space processes are to be frozen. Namely, when user space processes are being frozen, we only should set TIF_FREEZE for tasks that have p->mm different from NULL and don't have PF_BORROWED_MM set in p->flags. For this reason task_lock() must be used to prevent try_to_freeze_tasks() from racing with use_mm()/unuse_mm(), in which p->mm and p->flags.PF_BORROWED_MM are changed under task_lock(p). Also, we need to prevent the following scenario from happening: * daemonize() is called by a task spawned from a user space code path * freezer checks if the task has p->mm set and the result is positive * task enters exit_mm() and clears its TIF_FREEZE * freezer sets TIF_FREEZE for the task * task calls try_to_freeze() and goes to the refrigerator, which is wrong at that point This requires us to acquire task_lock(p) before p->flags.PF_BORROWED_MM and p->mm are examined and release it after TIF_FREEZE is set for p (or it turns out that TIF_FREEZE should not be set).

During hibernation we call hibernation_ops->prepare() before creating the image, but then, before saving it, we cancel the power transition by calling hibernation_ops->finish(). Thus prior to calling hibernation_ops->enter() we should let the platform firmware know that we're going to enter the low power state after all. Signed-off-by: NRafael J.

Change the code ordering so that hibernation_ops->prepare() is called after device_suspend(). This is needed so that we don't violate the ACPI specification, which states that the _PTS and _GTS system-control methods, executed from acpi_sleep_prepare(), ought to be called after devices have been put in low power states. The "Finish" label in hibernation_restore() is moved, because device_suspend() resumes devices if the suspending of them fails and the restore code ordering should reflect the hibernation code ordering.

At least on some machines it is necessary to prepare the ACPI firmware for the restoration of the system memory state from the hibernation image if the "platform" mode of hibernation has been used. Namely, in that cases we need to disable the GPEs before replacing the "boot" kernel with the "frozen" kernel (cf. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7887). After the restore they will be re-enabled by hibernation_ops->finish(), but if the restore fails, they have to be re-enabled by the restore code explicitly. For this purpose we can introduce two additional hibernation operations, called pre_restore() and restore_cleanup() and call them from the restore code path. Still, they should be called if the "platform" mode of hibernation has been used, so we need to pass the information about the hibernation mode from the "frozen" kernel to the "boot" kernel in the image header. Apparently, we can't drop the disabling of GPEs before the restore because of Bug #7887 . We also can't do it unconditionally, because the GPEs wouldn't have been enabled after a successful restore if the suspend had been done in the 'shutdown' or 'reboot' mode. In principle we could (and probably should) unconditionally disable the GPEs before each snapshot creation *and* before the restore, but then we'd have to unconditionally enable them after the snapshot creation as well as after the restore (or restore failure) Still, for this purpose we'd need to modify acpi_enter_sleep_state_prep() and acpi_leave_sleep_state() and we'd have to introduce some mechanism synchronizing the disablind/enabling of the GPEs with the device drivers' .suspend()/.resume() routines and with disable_/enable_nonboot_cpus(). However, this would have affected the suspend (ie. s2ram) code as well as the hibernation, which I'd like to avoid in this patch series. Signed-off-by: NRafael J.

Currently, much of the code in kernel/power/disk.c is duplicated in kernel/power/user.c , mainly for historical reasons. By eliminating this code duplication we can reduce the size of user.c quite substantially and remove the maintenance difficulty resulting from it.

In the face of the recent change of suspend code ordering (cf. http://marc.info/?l=linux-acpi&m=117938245931603&w=2) we should also modify the code ordering in swsusp so that hibernation_ops->prepare() is executed after device_suspend(). However, for this purpose it seems reasonable to eliminate the code duplication between kernel/power/disk.c and kernel/power/user.c first. By eliminating it we can reduce the size of user.c quite substantially and remove the maintenance difficulty with making essentially the same changes in two different places. Moreover, we should also remove the calls to "platform" functions from the restore code path, since it doesn't carry out any power transition of the system, but we generally need to disable the GPEs before the restore if the 'platform' hibernation mode has been used. To do this, we can introduce two new hibernation_ops to be used in the restore code. This patch: Make the code hibernation code in kernel/power/user.c be functionally equivalent to the corresponding code in kernel/power/disk.c , as it should be. The calls to the platform functions removed by this patch are incorrect. They should be replaced with some other "platform" invocations that will be introduced in one of the subsequent patches.

In order to enable things like PM_TRACE, you're required to enable PM_DEBUG, which sends a large spew of messages on boot, and often times can overflow dmesg buffer.

page_mkclean() doesn't re-protect ptes for non-linear mappings, so a later re-dirty through such a mapping will not generate a fault, PG_dirty will not reflect the dirty state and the dirty count will be skewed. This implies that msync() is also currently broken for nonlinear mappings. The easiest solution is to emulate remap_file_pages on non-linear mappings with simple mmap() for non ram-backed filesystems. Applications continue to work (albeit slower), as long as the number of remappings remain below the maximum vma count. However all currently known real uses of non-linear mappings are for ram backed filesystems, which this patch doesn't affect.
