This patch implements cpu intensive workqueue which can be specified with WQ_CPU_INTENSIVE flag on creation. Works queued to a cpu intensive workqueue don't participate in concurrency management. IOW, it doesn't contribute to gcwq->nr_running and thus doesn't delay excution of other works. Note that although cpu intensive works won't delay other works, they can be delayed by other works. Combine with WQ_HIGHPRI to avoid being delayed by other works too. As the name suggests this is useful when using workqueue for cpu intensive works. Workers executing cpu intensive works are not considered for workqueue concurrency management and left for the scheduler to manage.

This patch implements high priority workqueue which can be specified with WQ_HIGHPRI flag on creation. A high priority workqueue has the following properties. * A work queued to it is queued at the head of the worklist of the respective gcwq after other highpri works, while normal works are always appended at the end. * As long as there are highpri works on gcwq->worklist, [__]need_more_worker() remains %true and process_one_work() wakes up another worker before it start executing a work. The above two properties guarantee that works queued to high priority workqueues are dispatched to workers and start execution as soon as possible regardless of the state of other works.

This patch makes changes to make new workqueue features available to its users. * Now that workqueue is more featureful, there should be a public workqueue creation function which takes paramters to control them. Rename __create_workqueue() to alloc_workqueue() and make 0 max_active mean WQ_DFL_ACTIVE. In the long run, all create_workqueue_*() will be converted over to alloc_workqueue(). * To further unify access interface, rename keventd_wq to system_wq and export it. * Add system_long_wq and system_nrt_wq. The former is to host long running works separately (so that flush_scheduled_work() dosen't take so long) and the latter guarantees any queued work item is never executed in parallel by multiple CPUs. These will be used by future patches to update workqueue users. Signed-off-by: NTejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>

Define WQ_MAX_ACTIVE and create keventd with max_active set to half of it which means that keventd now can process upto WQ_MAX_ACTIVE / 2 - 1 works concurrently. Unless some combination can result in dependency loop longer than max_active, deadlock won't happen and thus it's unnecessary to check whether current_is_keventd() before trying to schedule a work. Kill current_is_keventd(). (Lockdep annotations are broken. We need lock_map_acquire_read_norecurse()) Signed-off-by: NTejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Cc: Christoph Lameter <cl@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com> Cc: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Cc: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com>

Instead of creating a worker for each cwq and putting it into the shared pool, manage per-cpu workers dynamically. Works aren't supposed to be cpu cycle hogs and maintaining just enough concurrency to prevent work processing from stalling due to lack of processing context is optimal. gcwq keeps the number of concurrent active workers to minimum but no less. As long as there's one or more running workers on the cpu, no new worker is scheduled so that works can be processed in batch as much as possible but when the last running worker blocks, gcwq immediately schedules new worker so that the cpu doesn't sit idle while there are works to be processed. gcwq always keeps at least single idle worker around. When a new worker is necessary and the worker is the last idle one, the worker assumes the role of "manager" and manages the worker pool - ie. creates another worker. Forward-progress is guaranteed by having dedicated rescue workers for workqueues which may be necessary while creating a new worker. When the manager is having problem creating a new worker, mayday timer activates and rescue workers are summoned to the cpu and execute works which might be necessary to create new workers. Trustee is expanded to serve the role of manager while a CPU is being taken down and stays down. As no new works are supposed to be queued on a dead cpu, it just needs to drain all the existing ones. Trustee continues to try to create new workers and summon rescuers as long as there are pending works. If the CPU is brought back up while the trustee is still trying to drain the gcwq from the previous offlining, the trustee will kill all idles ones and tell workers which are still busy to rebind to the cpu, and pass control over to gcwq which assumes the manager role as necessary. Concurrency managed worker pool reduces the number of workers drastically. Only workers which are necessary to keep the processing going are created and kept. Also, it reduces cache footprint by avoiding unnecessarily switching contexts between different workers. Please note that this patch does not increase max_active of any workqueue. All workqueues can still only process one work per cpu. Signed-off-by: NTejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>

With gcwq managing all the workers and work->data pointing to the last gcwq it was on, non-reentrance can be easily implemented by checking whether the work is still running on the previous gcwq on queueing. Implement it. Signed-off-by: NTejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>

To implement non-reentrant workqueue, the last gcwq a work was executed on must be reliably obtainable as long as the work structure is valid even if the previous workqueue has been destroyed. To achieve this, work->data will be overloaded to carry the last cpu number once execution starts so that the previous gcwq can be located reliably. This means that cwq can't be obtained from work after execution starts but only gcwq. Implement set_work_{cwq|cpu}(), get_work_[g]cwq() and clear_work_data() to set work data to the cpu number when starting execution, access the overloaded work data and clear it after cancellation. queue_delayed_work_on() is updated to preserve the last cpu while in-flight in timer and other callers which depended on getting cwq from work after execution starts are converted to depend on gcwq instead. * Anton Blanchard fixed compile error on powerpc due to missing linux/threads.h include.

Reimplement st (single thread) workqueue so that it's friendly to shared worker pool. It was originally implemented by confining st workqueues to use cwq of a fixed cpu and always having a worker for the cpu. This implementation isn't very friendly to shared worker pool and suboptimal in that it ends up crossing cpu boundaries often. Reimplement st workqueue using dynamic single cpu binding and cwq->limit. WQ_SINGLE_THREAD is replaced with WQ_SINGLE_CPU. In a single cpu workqueue, at most single cwq is bound to the wq at any given time. Arbitration is done using atomic accesses to wq->single_cpu when queueing a work. Once bound, the binding stays till the workqueue is drained. Note that the binding is never broken while a workqueue is frozen. This is because idle cwqs may have works waiting in delayed_works queue while frozen. On thaw, the cwq is restarted if there are any delayed works or unbound otherwise. When combined with max_active limit of 1, single cpu workqueue has exactly the same execution properties as the original single thread workqueue while allowing sharing of per-cpu workers.

Reimplement CPU hotplugging support using trustee thread. On CPU down, a trustee thread is created and each step of CPU down is executed by the trustee and workqueue_cpu_callback() simply drives and waits for trustee state transitions. CPU down operation no longer waits for works to be drained but trustee sticks around till all pending works have been completed. If CPU is brought back up while works are still draining, workqueue_cpu_callback() tells trustee to step down and tell workers to rebind to the cpu. As it's difficult to tell whether cwqs are empty if it's freezing or frozen, trustee doesn't consider draining to be complete while a gcwq is freezing or frozen (tracked by new GCWQ_FREEZING flag). Also, workers which get unbound from their cpu are marked with WORKER_ROGUE. Trustee based implementation doesn't bring any new feature at this point but it will be used to manage worker pool when dynamic shared worker pool is implemented.

Currently, workqueue freezing is implemented by marking the worker freezeable and calling try_to_freeze() from dispatch loop. Reimplement it using cwq->limit so that the workqueue is frozen instead of the worker. * workqueue_struct->saved_max_active is added which stores the specified max_active on initialization. * On freeze, all cwq->max_active's are quenched to zero. Freezing is complete when nr_active on all cwqs reach zero. * On thaw, all cwq->max_active's are restored to wq->saved_max_active and the worklist is repopulated. This new implementation allows having single shared pool of workers per cpu. Signed-off-by: NTejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>

Add cwq->nr_active, cwq->max_active and cwq->delayed_work. nr_active counts the number of active works per cwq. A work is active if it's flushable (colored) and is on cwq's worklist. If nr_active reaches max_active, new works are queued on cwq->delayed_work and activated later as works on the cwq complete and decrement nr_active. cwq->max_active can be specified via the new @max_active parameter to __create_workqueue() and is set to 1 for all workqueues for now. As each cwq has only single worker now, this double queueing doesn't cause any behavior difference visible to its users. This will be used to reimplement freeze/thaw and implement shared worker pool.

A work is linked to the next one by having WORK_STRUCT_LINKED bit set and these links can be chained. When a linked work is dispatched to a worker, all linked works are dispatched to the worker's newly added ->scheduled queue and processed back-to-back. Currently, as there's only single worker per cwq, having linked works doesn't make any visible behavior difference. This change is to prepare for multiple shared workers per cpu.

Reimplement workqueue flushing using color coded works. wq has the current work color which is painted on the works being issued via cwqs. Flushing a workqueue is achieved by advancing the current work colors of cwqs and waiting for all the works which have any of the previous colors to drain. Currently there are 16 possible colors, one is reserved for no color and 15 colors are useable allowing 14 concurrent flushes. When color space gets full, flush attempts are batched up and processed together when color frees up, so even with many concurrent flushers, the new implementation won't build up huge queue of flushers which has to be processed one after another. Only works which are queued via __queue_work() are colored. Works which are directly put on queue using insert_work() use NO_COLOR and don't participate in workqueue flushing. Currently only works used for work-specific flush fall in this category. This new implementation leaves only cleanup_workqueue_thread() as the user of flush_cpu_workqueue(). Just make its users use flush_workqueue() and kthread_stop() directly and kill cleanup_workqueue_thread(). As workqueue flushing doesn't use barrier request anymore, the comment describing the complex synchronization around it in cleanup_workqueue_thread() is removed together with the function. This new implementation is to allow having and sharing multiple workers per cpu. Please note that one more bit is reserved for a future work flag by this patch. This is to avoid shifting bits and updating comments later. Signed-off-by: NTejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>

work->data field is used for two purposes. It points to cwq it's queued on and the lower bits are used for flags. Currently, two bits are reserved which is always safe as 4 byte alignment is guaranteed on every architecture. However, future changes will need more flag bits. On SMP, the percpu allocator is capable of honoring larger alignment (there are other users which depend on it) and larger alignment works just fine. On UP, percpu allocator is a thin wrapper around kzalloc/kfree() and don't honor alignment request. This patch introduces WORK_STRUCT_FLAG_BITS and implements alloc/free_cwqs() which guarantees max(1 << WORK_STRUCT_FLAG_BITS, __alignof__(unsigned long long) alignment both on SMP and UP. On SMP, simply wrapping percpu allocator is enough. On UP, extra space is allocated so that cwq can be aligned and the original pointer can be stored after it which is used in the free path. * Alignment problem on UP is reported by Michal Simek.

Currently, the accelerated receive path for VLAN's will drop packets if the real device is an inactive slave and is not one of the special pkts tested for in skb_bond_should_drop(). This behavior is different then the non-accelerated path and for pkts over a bonded vlan. For example, vlanx -> bond0 -> ethx will be dropped in the vlan path and not delivered to any packet handlers at all. However, bond0 -> vlanx -> ethx and bond0 -> ethx will be delivered to handlers that match the exact dev, because the VLAN path checks the real_dev which is not a slave and netif_recv_skb() doesn't drop frames but only delivers them to exact matches. This patch adds a sk_buff flag which is used for tagging skbs that would previously been dropped and allows the skb to continue to skb_netif_recv(). Here we add logic to check for the deliver_no_wcard flag and if it is set only deliver to handlers that match exactly. This makes both paths above consistent and gives pkt handlers a way to identify skbs that come from inactive slaves. Without this patch in some configurations skbs will be delivered to handlers with exact matches and in others be dropped out right in the vlan path. I have tested the following 4 configurations in failover modes and load balancing modes. # bond0 -> ethx # vlanx -> bond0 -> ethx # bond0 -> vlanx -> ethx # bond0 -> ethx | vlanx -> -- Signed-off-by: NJohn Fastabend <john.r.fastabend@intel.com> Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

If a filesystem writes more than one page in ->writepage, write_cache_pages fails to notice this and continues to attempt writeback when wbc->nr_to_write has gone negative - this trace was captured from XFS: wbc_writeback_start: towrt=1024 wbc_writepage: towrt=1024 wbc_writepage: towrt=0 wbc_writepage: towrt=-1 wbc_writepage: towrt=-5 wbc_writepage: towrt=-21 wbc_writepage: towrt=-85 This has adverse effects on filesystem writeback behaviour. write_cache_pages() needs to terminate after a certain number of pages are written, not after a certain number of calls to ->writepage are made.

Concurrency managed workqueue needs to know when workers are going to sleep and waking up. Using these two hooks, cmwq keeps track of the current concurrency level and throttles execution of new works if it's too high and wakes up another worker from the sleep hook if it becomes too low. This patch introduces PF_WQ_WORKER to identify workqueue workers and adds the following two hooks. * wq_worker_waking_up(): called when a worker is woken up. * wq_worker_sleeping(): called when a worker is going to sleep and may return a pointer to a local task which should be woken up. The returned task is woken up using try_to_wake_up_local() which is simplified ttwu which is called under rq lock and can only wake up local tasks. Both hooks are currently defined as noop in kernel/workqueue_sched.h. Later cmwq implementation will replace them with proper implementation. These hooks are hard coded as they'll always be enabled.

Currently, when a cpu goes down, cpu_active is cleared before CPU_DOWN_PREPARE starts and cpuset configuration is updated from a default priority cpu notifier. When a cpu is coming up, it's set before CPU_ONLINE but cpuset configuration again is updated from the same cpu notifier. For cpu notifiers, this presents an inconsistent state. Threads which a CPU_DOWN_PREPARE notifier expects to be bound to the CPU can be migrated to other cpus because the cpu is no more inactive. Fix it by updating cpu_active in the highest priority cpu notifier and cpuset configuration in the second highest when a cpu is coming up. Down path is updated similarly. This guarantees that all other cpu notifiers see consistent cpu_active and cpuset configuration. cpuset_track_online_cpus() notifier is converted to cpuset_update_active_cpus() which just updates the configuration and now called from cpuset_cpu_[in]active() notifiers registered from sched_init_smp(). If cpuset is disabled, cpuset_update_active_cpus() degenerates into partition_sched_domains() making separate notifier for !CONFIG_CPUSETS unnecessary. This problem is triggered by cmwq. During CPU_DOWN_PREPARE, hotplug callback creates a kthread and kthread_bind()s it to the target cpu, and the thread is expected to run on that cpu. * Ingo's test discovered __cpuinit/exit markups were incorrect.

When adding a module that depends on another one, we used to create a one-way list of "modules_which_use_me", so that module unloading could see who needs a module. It's actually quite simple to make that list go both ways: so that we not only can see "who uses me", but also see a list of modules that are "used by me". In fact, we always wanted that list in "module_unload_free()": when we unload a module, we want to also release all the other modules that are used by that module. But because we didn't have that list, we used to first iterate over all modules, and then iterate over each "used by me" list of that module. By making the list two-way, we simplify module_unload_free(), and it allows for some trivial fixes later too.

task_struct->pesonality is "unsigned int", but sys_personality() paths use "unsigned long pesonality". This means that every assignment or comparison is not right. In particular, if this argument does not fit into "unsigned int" __set_personality() changes the caller's personality and then sys_personality() returns -EINVAL. Turn this argument into "unsigned int" and avoid overflows. Obviously, this is the user-visible change, we just ignore the upper bits. But this can't break the sane application. There is another thing which can confuse the poorly written applications. User-space thinks that this syscall returns int, not long. This means that the returned value can be negative and look like the error code. But note that libc won't be confused and thus errno won't be set, and with this patch the user-space can never get -1 unless sys_personality() really fails. And, most importantly, the negative RET != -1 is only possible if that app previously called personality(RET).
