In uv_flush_tlb_others() (arch/x86/kernel/tlb_uv.c), the "WARN_ON(!in_atomic())" fails if CONFIG_PREEMPT is not enabled. And CONFIG_PREEMPT is not enabled by default in the distribution that most UV owners will use. We could #ifdef CONFIG_PREEMPT the warning, but that is not good form. And there seems to be no suitable fix to in_atomic() when CONFIG_PREMPT is not on. As Ingo commented: > and we have no proper primitive to test for atomicity. (mainly > because we dont know about atomicity on a non-preempt kernel) So we drop the WARN_ON.

Impact: fix deadlock and allow atomic free Percpu allocation always uses GFP_KERNEL and whole alloc/free paths were protected by single mutex. All percpu allocations have been from GFP_KERNEL-safe context and the original allocator had this assumption too. However, by protecting both alloc and free paths with the same mutex, the new allocator creates free -> alloc -> GFP_KERNEL dependency which the original allocator didn't have. This can lead to deadlock if free is called from FS or IO paths. Also, in general, allocators are expected to allow free to be called from atomic context. This patch implements finer grained locking to break the deadlock and allow atomic free. For details, please read the "Synchronization rules" comment. While at it, also add CONTEXT: to function comments to describe which context they expect to be called from and what they do to it. This problem was reported by Thomas Gleixner and Peter Zijlstra. http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/802384Signed-off-by: NTejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Reported-by: NThomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Reported-by: NPeter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org>

Impact: code reorganization for later changes Separate out chunk area map extension into a separate function - pcpu_extend_area_map() - and call it directly from pcpu_alloc() such that pcpu_alloc_area() is guaranteed to have enough area map slots on invocation. With this change, pcpu_alloc_area() does only area allocation and the only failure mode is when the chunk doens't have enough room, so there's no need to distinguish it from memory allocation failures. Make it return -1 on such cases instead of hacky -ENOSPC. Signed-off-by: NTejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>

Impact: fix relocation overflow during module load x86_64 uses 32bit relocations for symbol access and static percpu symbols whether in core or modules must be inside 2GB of the percpu segement base which the dynamic percpu allocator doesn't guarantee. This patch makes x86_64 reserve PERCPU_MODULE_RESERVE bytes in the first chunk so that module percpu areas are always allocated from the first chunk which is always inside the relocatable range. This problem exists for any percpu allocator but is easily triggered when using the embedding allocator because the second chunk is located beyond 2GB on it. This patch also changes the meaning of PERCPU_DYNAMIC_RESERVE such that it only indicates the size of the area to reserve for dynamic allocation as static and dynamic areas can be separate. New PERCPU_DYNAMIC_RESERVED is increased by 4k for both 32 and 64bits as the reserved area separation eats away some allocatable space and having slightly more headroom (currently between 4 and 8k after minimal boot sans module area) makes sense for common case performance. x86_32 can address anywhere from anywhere and doesn't need reserving. Mike Galbraith first reported the problem first and bisected it to the embedding percpu allocator commit.

Impact: add reserved allocation functionality and use it for module percpu variables This patch implements reserved allocation from the first chunk. When setting up the first chunk, arch can ask to set aside certain number of bytes right after the core static area which is available only through a separate reserved allocator. This will be used primarily for module static percpu variables on architectures with limited relocation range to ensure that the module perpcu symbols are inside the relocatable range. If reserved area is requested, the first chunk becomes reserved and isn't available for regular allocation. If the first chunk also includes piggy-back dynamic allocation area, a separate chunk mapping the same region is created to serve dynamic allocation. The first one is called static first chunk and the second dynamic first chunk. Although they share the page map, their different area map initializations guarantee they serve disjoint areas according to their purposes. If arch doesn't setup reserved area, reserved allocation is handled like any other allocation. Signed-off-by: NTejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>

Impact: reduce unnecessary memory usage on certain configurations Embedding percpu allocator allocates unit_size * smp_num_possible_cpus() bytes consecutively and use it for the first chunk. However, if the static area is small, this can result in excessive prellocated free space in the first chunk due to PCPU_MIN_UNIT_SIZE restriction. This patch makes embedding percpu allocator preallocate only what's necessary as described by PERPCU_DYNAMIC_RESERVE and return the leftover to the bootmem allocator.

Impact: argument semantic cleanup In pcpu_setup_first_chunk(), zero @unit_size and @dyn_size meant auto-sizing. It's okay for @unit_size as 0 doesn't make sense but 0 dynamic reserve size is valid. Alos, if arch @dyn_size is calculated from other parameters, it might end up passing in 0 @dyn_size and malfunction when the size is automatically adjusted. This patch makes both @unit_size and @dyn_size ssize_t and use -1 for auto sizing. Signed-off-by: NTejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>

Impact: no functional change When the first chunk is created, its initial area map is not allocated because kmalloc isn't online yet. The map is allocated and initialized on the first allocation request on the chunk. This works fine but the scattering of initialization logic between the init function and allocation path is a bit confusing. This patch makes the first chunk initialize and use minimal statically allocated map from pcpu_setpu_first_chunk(). The map resizing path still needs to handle this specially but it's more straight-forward and gives more latitude to the init path. This will ease future changes.

This is done by 1) Wake up lock waiters when we close the master file descriptor. Not when the master structure is removed, since the latter requires the waiters themselves to release the refcount on the master structure -> Deadlock. 2) Send a SIGTERM to all clients waiting for the lock. Normally these clients will get a SIGPIPE when the X server dies, but clients may also spin trying to grab the DRM lock, without getting any sort of notification.
