Impact: implement new performance feature

Counter inheritance can be used to run performance counters in a workload,
transparently - and pipe back the counter results to the parent counter.

Inheritance for performance counters works the following way: when creating
a counter it can be marked with the .inherit=1 flag. Such counters are then
'inherited' by all child tasks (be they fork()-ed or clone()-ed). These
counters get inherited through exec() boundaries as well (except through
setuid boundaries).

The counter values get added back to the parent counter(s) when the child
task(s) exit - much like stime/utime statistics are gathered. So inherited
counters are ideal to gather summary statistics about an application's
behavior via shell commands, without having to modify that application.

The timec.c command utilizes counter inheritance:

  http://redhat.com/~mingo/perfcounters/timec.c

Sample output:

   $ ./timec -e 1 -e 3 -e 5 ls -lR /usr/include/ >/dev/null

   Performance counter stats for 'ls':

	void (*hw_perf_counter_read)	(struct perf_counter *counter);

managed sw events such as pagefaults, context-switches, wall-clock time
or task-local time.)

Impact: add group counters

This patch adds the "counter groups" abstraction.

Groups of counters behave much like normal 'single' counters, with a
few semantic and behavioral extensions on top of that.

A counter group is created by creating a new counter with the open()
syscall's group-leader group_fd file descriptor parameter pointing
to another, already existing counter.

Groups of counters are scheduled in and out in one atomic group, and
they are also roundrobin-scheduled atomically.

Counters that are member of a group can also record events with an
(atomic) extended timestamp that extends to all members of the group,
if the record type is set to PERF_RECORD_GROUP.

Impact: clean up new API

Thorough cleanup of the new perf counters API, we now get clean separation
of the various concepts:

 - introduce perf_counter_hw_event to separate out the event source details

 - move special type flags into separate attributes: PERF_COUNT_NMI,
   PERF_COUNT_RAW

 - extend the type to u64 and reserve it fully to the architecture in the
   raw type case.

And make use of all these changes in the core and x86 perfcounters code.

Also change the syscall signature to:

  asmlinkage int sys_perf_counter_open(

	struct perf_counter_hw_event	*hw_event_uptr		__user,
	pid_t				pid,
	int				cpu,
	int				group_fd);

( Note that group_fd is unused for now - it's reserved for the counter
  groups abstraction. )

Miles Lane tailing /sys files hit a BUG which Pekka Enberg has tracked
to my 966c8c12 sprint_symbol(): use
less stack exposing a bug in slub's list_locations() -
kallsyms_lookup() writes a 0 to namebuf[KSYM_NAME_LEN-1], but that was
beyond the end of page provided.

The 100 slop which list_locations() allows at end of page looks roughly
enough for all the other stuff it might print after the symbol before
it checks again: break out KSYM_SYMBOL_LEN earlier than before.

Latencytop and ftrace and are using KSYM_NAME_LEN buffers where they
need KSYM_SYMBOL_LEN buffers, and vmallocinfo a 2*KSYM_NAME_LEN buffer
where it wants a KSYM_SYMBOL_LEN buffer: fix those before anyone copies

        percpu counter: clean up percpu_counter_sum_and_set()

Before this patch we had the following:

percpu_counter_sum(): return the percpu_counter's value

percpu_counter_sum_and_set(): return the percpu_counter's value, copying
that value into the central value and zeroing the per-cpu counters before
returning.

After this patch, percpu_counter_sum_and_set() has gone, and
percpu_counter_sum() gets the old percpu_counter_sum_and_set()
functionality.

Problem is, as Eric points out, the old percpu_counter_sum_and_set()
functionality was racy and wrong.  It zeroes out counters on "other" cpus,
without holding any locks which will prevent races agaist updates from
those other CPUS.

This patch reverts 1f7c14c6.  This means
that percpu_counter_sum_and_set() still has the race, but
percpu_counter_sum() does not.

Note that this is not a simple revert - ext4 has since started using
percpu_counter_sum() for its dirty_blocks counter as well.

Note that this revert patch changes percpu_counter_sum() semantics.

Before the patch, a call to percpu_counter_sum() will bring the counter's
central counter mostly up-to-date, so a following percpu_counter_read()
will return a close value.

After this patch, a call to percpu_counter_sum() will leave the counter's
central accumulator unaltered, so a subsequent call to
percpu_counter_read() can now return a significantly inaccurate result.

If there is any code in the tree which was introduced after
e8ced39d was merged, and which depends
upon the new percpu_counter_sum() semantics, that code will break.

Implement the core kernel bits of Performance Counters subsystem.

The Linux Performance Counter subsystem provides an abstraction of
performance counter hardware capabilities. It provides per task and per
CPU counters, and it provides event capabilities on top of those.

Performance counters are accessed via special file descriptors.
There's one file descriptor per virtual counter used.

The special file descriptor is opened via the perf_counter_open()
system call:

 int
 perf_counter_open(u32 hw_event_type,
                   u32 hw_event_period,
                   u32 record_type,
                   pid_t pid,
                   int cpu);

The syscall returns the new fd. The fd can be used via the normal
VFS system calls: read() can be used to read the counter, fcntl()
can be used to set the blocking mode, etc.

Multiple counters can be kept open at a time, and the counters
can be poll()ed.

There's no point in having too short SG_IO timeouts, since if the
command does end up timing out, we'll end up through the reset sequence
that is several seconds long in order to abort the command that timed
out.

As a result, shorter timeouts than a few seconds simply do not make
sense, as the recovery would be longer than the timeout itself.

Add a BLK_MIN_SG_TIMEOUT to match the existign BLK_DEFAULT_SG_TIMEOUT.

Due to a wrong safety check in af_can.c it was not possible to filter
for SFF frames with a specific CAN identifier without getting the
same selected CAN identifier from a received EFF frame also.

This fix has a minimum (but user visible) impact on the CAN filter
API and therefore the CAN version is set to a new date.

Indeed the 'old' API is still working as-is. But when now setting
CAN_(EFF|RTR)_FLAG in can_filter.can_mask you might get less traffic
than before - but still the stuff that you expected to get for your
defined filter ...

Fix setting of max_segment_size and seg_boundary mask for stacked md/dm
devices.

When stacking devices (LVM over MD over SCSI) some of the request queue
parameters are not set up correctly in some cases by default, namely
max_segment_size and and seg_boundary mask.

If you create MD device over SCSI, these attributes are zeroed.

Problem become when there is over this mapping next device-mapper mapping
- queue attributes are set in DM this way:

request_queue   max_segment_size  seg_boundary_mask
SCSI                65536             0xffffffff
MD RAID1                0                      0
LVM                 65536                 -1 (64bit)

Unfortunately bio_add_page (resp.  bio_phys_segments) calculates number of
physical segments according to these parameters.

During the generic_make_request() is segment cout recalculated and can
increase bio->bi_phys_segments count over the allowed limit.  (After
bio_clone() in stack operation.)

Thi is specially problem in CCISS driver, where it produce OOPS here

    BUG_ON(creq->nr_phys_segments > MAXSGENTRIES);

(MAXSEGENTRIES is 31 by default.)

Sometimes even this command is enough to cause oops:

  dd iflag=direct if=/dev/<vg>/<lv> of=/dev/null bs=128000 count=10

This command generates bios with 250 sectors, allocated in 32 4k-pages
(last page uses only 1024 bytes).

For LVM layer, it allocates bio with 31 segments (still OK for CCISS),
unfortunatelly on lower layer it is recalculated to 32 segments and this
violates CCISS restriction and triggers BUG_ON().

The patch tries to fix it by:

 * initializing attributes above in queue request constructor
   blk_queue_make_request()

 * make sure that blk_queue_stack_limits() inherits setting

 (DM uses its own function to set the limits because it
 blk_queue_stack_limits() was introduced later.  It should probably switch
 to use generic stack limit function too.)

 * sets the default seg_boundary value in one place (blkdev.h)

 * use this mask as default in DM (instead of -1, which differs in 64bit)

blkdev_dequeue_request() and elv_dequeue_request() are equivalent and
both start the timeout timer.  Barrier code dequeues the original
barrier request but doesn't passes the request itself to lower level
driver, only broken down proxy requests; however, as the original
barrier code goes through the same dequeue path and timeout timer is
started on it.  If barrier sequence takes long enough, this timer
expires but the low level driver has no idea about this request and
oops follows.

Timeout timer shouldn't have been started on the original barrier
request as it never goes through actual IO.  This patch unexports
elv_dequeue_request(), which has no external user anyway, and makes it
operate on elevator proper w/o adding the timer and make
blkdev_dequeue_request() call elv_dequeue_request() and add timer.
Internal users which don't pass the request to driver - barrier code
and end_that_request_last() - are converted to use
elv_dequeue_request().

It seems that on some nVidia controllers using AltStatus register
can be unreliable so default to Status register if the PCI device
is in Compatibility Mode.  In order to achieve this:

* Add ide_pci_is_in_compatibility_mode() inline helper to <linux/ide.h>.

* Add IDE_HFLAG_BROKEN_ALTSTATUS host flag and set it in amd74xx host
  driver for nVidia controllers in Compatibility Mode.

* Teach actual_try_to_identify() and drive_is_ready() about the new flag.

This fixes the regression caused by removal of CONFIG_IDEPCI_SHARE_IRQ
config option in 2.6.25 and using AltStatus register unconditionally when
available (kernel.org bugs #11659 and #10216).

[ Moreover for CONFIG_IDEPCI_SHARE_IRQ=y (which is what most people
  and distributions use) it never worked correctly. ]

It has been thought that the per-user file descriptors limit would also
limit the resources that a normal user can request via the epoll
interface.  Vegard Nossum reported a very simple program (a modified
version attached) that can make a normal user to request a pretty large
amount of kernel memory, well within the its maximum number of fds.  To
solve such problem, default limits are now imposed, and /proc based
configuration has been introduced.  A new directory has been created,
named /proc/sys/fs/epoll/ and inside there, there are two configuration
points:

  max_user_instances = Maximum number of devices - per user

  max_user_watches   = Maximum number of "watched" fds - per user

The current default for "max_user_watches" limits the memory used by epoll
to store "watches", to 1/32 of the amount of the low RAM.  As example, a
256MB 32bit machine, will have "max_user_watches" set to roughly 90000.
That should be enough to not break existing heavy epoll users.  The
default value for "max_user_instances" is set to 128, that should be
enough too.

This also changes the userspace, because a new error code can now come out
from EPOLL_CTL_ADD (-ENOSPC).  The EMFILE from epoll_create() was already
listed, so that should be ok.

Commit 7ff93f8b ("mlx4_core: Multiple port type support") introduced
support for different port types.  As part of that support, SET_PORT
is invoked to set the port type during driver startup.  However, as a
side-effect, for IB ports the invocation of this command also sets the
port's capability mask to zero (losing the default value set by FW).

To fix this, get the default ib port capabilities (via a MAD_IFC Port
Info query) during driver startup, and save them for use in the
mlx4_SET_PORT command when setting the port-type to Infiniband.

This patch fixes problems with subnet manager (SM) failover such as

With aliasing VIPT cache support, the ARM implementation of
clear_user_page() and copy_user_page() sets up a temporary kernel space
mapping such that we have the same cache colour as the userspace page.
This avoids having to consider any userspace aliases from this operation.

However, when highmem is enabled, kmap_atomic() have to setup mappings.
The copy_user_highpage() and clear_user_highpage() call these functions
before delegating the copies to copy_user_page() and clear_user_page().

The effect of this is that each of the *_user_highpage() functions setup
their own kmap mapping, followed by the *_user_page() functions setting
up another mapping.  This is rather wasteful.

Thankfully, copy_user_highpage() can be overriden by architectures by
defining __HAVE_ARCH_COPY_USER_HIGHPAGE.  However, replacement of
clear_user_highpage() is more difficult because its inline definition
is not conditional.  It seems that you're expected to define
__HAVE_ARCH_ALLOC_ZEROED_USER_HIGHPAGE and provide a replacement
__alloc_zeroed_user_highpage() implementation instead.

The allocation itself is fine, so we don't want to override that.  What
we really want to do is to override clear_user_highpage() with our own
version which doesn't kmap_atomic() unnecessarily.

Other VIPT architectures (PARISC and SH) would also like to override
this function as well.

After adding a node into the machine, top cpuset's mems isn't updated.

By reviewing the code, we found that the update function

  cpuset_track_online_nodes()

was invoked after node_states[N_ONLINE] changes.  It is wrong because
N_ONLINE just means node has pgdat, and if node has/added memory, we use
N_HIGH_MEMORY.  So, We should invoke the update function after
node_states[N_HIGH_MEMORY] changes, just like its commit says.

This patch fixes it.  And we use notifier of memory hotplug instead of
direct calling of cpuset_track_online_nodes().
