      [PATCH] slob: introduce the SLOB allocator · 10cef602
      Matt Mackall 提交于
      configurable replacement for slab allocator
      
      This adds a CONFIG_SLAB option under CONFIG_EMBEDDED.  When CONFIG_SLAB is
      disabled, the kernel falls back to using the 'SLOB' allocator.
      
      SLOB is a traditional K&R/UNIX allocator with a SLAB emulation layer,
      similar to the original Linux kmalloc allocator that SLAB replaced.  It's
      signicantly smaller code and is more memory efficient.  But like all
      similar allocators, it scales poorly and suffers from fragmentation more
      than SLAB, so it's only appropriate for small systems.
      
      It's been tested extensively in the Linux-tiny tree.  I've also
      stress-tested it with make -j 8 compiles on a 3G SMP+PREEMPT box (not
      recommended).
      
      Here's a comparison for otherwise identical builds, showing SLOB saving
      nearly half a megabyte of RAM:

      Insanity avoidance in /proc · 8b90db0d
      Linus Torvalds 提交于
      The old /proc interfaces were never updated to use loff_t, and are just
      generally broken.  Now, we should be using the seq_file interface for
      all of the proc files, but converting the legacy functions is more work
      than most people care for and has little upside..
      
      But at least we can make the non-LFS rules explicit, rather than just
      insanely wrapping the offset or something.

      mm: re-architect the VM_UNPAGED logic · 6aab341e
      Linus Torvalds 提交于
      This replaces the (in my opinion horrible) VM_UNMAPPED logic with very
      explicit support for a "remapped page range" aka VM_PFNMAP.  It allows a
      VM area to contain an arbitrary range of page table entries that the VM
      never touches, and never considers to be normal pages.
      
      Any user of "remap_pfn_range()" automatically gets this new
      functionality, and doesn't even have to mark the pages reserved or
      indeed mark them any other way.  It just works.  As a side effect, doing
      mmap() on /dev/mem works for arbitrary ranges.
      
      Sparc update from David in the next commit.

      [PATCH] mm: follow_page with inner ptlock · deceb6cd
      Hugh Dickins 提交于
      Final step in pushing down common core's page_table_lock.  follow_page no
      longer wants caller to hold page_table_lock, uses pte_offset_map_lock itself;
      and so no page_table_lock is taken in get_user_pages itself.
      
      But get_user_pages (and get_futex_key) do then need follow_page to pin the
      page for them: take Daniel's suggestion of bitflags to follow_page.
      
      Need one for WRITE, another for TOUCH (it was the accessed flag before:
      vanished along with check_user_page_readable, but surely get_numa_maps is
      wrong to mark every page it finds as accessed), another for GET.
      
      And another, ANON to dispose of untouched_anonymous_page: it seems silly for
      that to descend a second time, let follow_page observe if there was no page
      table and return ZERO_PAGE if so.  Fix minor bug in that: check VM_LOCKED -
      make_pages_present ought to make readonly anonymous present.
      
      Give get_numa_maps a cond_resched while we're there.

      [PATCH] mm: pte_offset_map_lock loops · 705e87c0
      Hugh Dickins 提交于
      Convert those common loops using page_table_lock on the outside and
      pte_offset_map within to use just pte_offset_map_lock within instead.
      
      These all hold mmap_sem (some exclusively, some not), so at no level can a
      page table be whipped away from beneath them.  But whereas pte_alloc loops
      tested with the "atomic" pmd_present, these loops are testing with pmd_none,
      which on i386 PAE tests both lower and upper halves.
      
      That's now unsafe, so add a cast into pmd_none to test only the vital lower
      half: we lose a little sensitivity to a corrupt middle directory, but not
      enough to worry about.  It appears that i386 and UML were the only
      architectures vulnerable in this way, and pgd and pud no problem.

      [PATCH] mm: update_hiwaters just in time · 365e9c87
      Hugh Dickins 提交于
      update_mem_hiwater has attracted various criticisms, in particular from those
      concerned with mm scalability.  Originally it was called whenever rss or
      total_vm got raised.  Then many of those callsites were replaced by a timer
      tick call from account_system_time.  Now Frank van Maarseveen reports that to
      be found inadequate.  How about this?  Works for Frank.
      
      Replace update_mem_hiwater, a poor combination of two unrelated ops, by macros
      update_hiwater_rss and update_hiwater_vm.  Don't attempt to keep
      mm->hiwater_rss up to date at timer tick, nor every time we raise rss (usually
      by 1): those are hot paths.  Do the opposite, update only when about to lower
      rss (usually by many), or just before final accounting in do_exit.  Handle
      mm->hiwater_vm in the same way, though it's much less of an issue.  Demand
      that whoever collects these hiwater statistics do the work of taking the
      maximum with rss or total_vm.
      
      And there has been no collector of these hiwater statistics in the tree.  The
      new convention needs an example, so match Frank's usage by adding a VmPeak
      line above VmSize to /proc/<pid>/status, and also a VmHWM line above VmRSS
      (High-Water-Mark or High-Water-Memory).
      
      There was a particular anomaly during mremap move, that hiwater_vm might be
      captured too high.  A fleeting such anomaly remains, but it's quickly
      corrected now, whereas before it would stick.
      
      What locking?  None: if the app is racy then these statistics will be racy,
      it's not worth any overhead to make them exact.  But whenever it suits,
      hiwater_vm is updated under exclusive mmap_sem, and hiwater_rss under
      page_table_lock (for now) or with preemption disabled (later on): without
      going to any trouble, minimize the time between reading current values and
      updating, to minimize those occasions when a racing thread bumps a count up
      and back down in between.

      [PATCH] mm: rss = file_rss + anon_rss · 4294621f
      Hugh Dickins 提交于
      I was lazy when we added anon_rss, and chose to change as few places as
      possible.  So currently each anonymous page has to be counted twice, in rss
      and in anon_rss.  Which won't be so good if those are atomic counts in some
      configurations.
      
      Change that around: keep file_rss and anon_rss separately, and add them
      together (with get_mm_rss macro) when the total is needed - reading two
      atomics is much cheaper than updating two atomics.  And update anon_rss
      upfront, typically in memory.c, not tucked away in page_add_anon_rmap.

      This creates the directory structure under arch/powerpc and a bunch
      of Kconfig files.  It does a first-cut merge of arch/powerpc/mm,
      arch/powerpc/lib and arch/powerpc/platforms/powermac.  This is enough
      to build a 32-bit powermac kernel with ARCH=powerpc.
      
      For now we are getting some unmerged files from arch/ppc/kernel and
      arch/ppc/syslib, or arch/ppc64/kernel.  This makes some minor changes
      to files in those directories and files outside arch/powerpc.

      show_smap calls first show_map and then prints its additional information to
      the seq_file.  show_map checks if all it has to print fits into the buffer and
      if yes marks the current vma as written.  While that is correct for show_map
      it is not for show_smap.  Here the vma should be marked as written only after
      the additional information is also written.
      
      The attached patch cures the problem.  It moves the functionality of the
      show_map function to a new function show_map_internal that is called with an
      additional struct mem_size_stats* argument.  Then show_map calls
      show_map_internal with NULL as struct mem_size_stats* whereas show_smap calls
      it with a real pointer.  Now the final
      
      	if (m->count < m->size)  /* vma is copied successfully */
      		m->version = (vma != get_gate_vma(task))? vma->vm_start: 0;
      
      is done only if the whole entry fits into the buffer.

      [PATCH] /proc/<pid>/numa_maps to show on which nodes pages reside · 6e21c8f1
      Christoph Lameter 提交于
      This patch was recently discussed on linux-mm:
      http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?t=112085728500002&r=1&w=2
      
      I inherited a large code base from Ray for page migration.  There was a
      small patch in there that I find to be very useful since it allows the
      display of the locality of the pages in use by a process.  I reworked that
      patch and came up with a /proc/<pid>/numa_maps that gives more information
      about the vma's of a process.  numa_maps is indexes by the start address
      found in /proc/<pid>/maps.  F.e.  with this patch you can see the page use
      of the "getty" process:

      getty uses ld.so.  The first vma is the code segment which is used by 43
      other processes and the pages are evenly distributed over the 4 nodes.
      
      The second vma is the process specific data portion for ld.so.  This is
      only one page.
      
      The display format is:
      
      <startaddress>	 Links to information in /proc/<pid>/map
      <memory policy>  This can be "default" "interleave={}", "prefer=<node>" or "bind={<zones>}"
      MaxRef=		<maximum reference to a page in this vma>
      Pages=		<Nr of pages in use>
      Mapped=		<Nr of pages with mapcount >
      Anon=		<nr of anonymous pages>
      Nx=		<Nr of pages on Node x>
      
      The content of the proc-file is self-evident.  If this would be tied into
      the sparsemem system then the contents of this file would not be too
      useful.
