printk()s without a priority level default to KERN_WARNING. To reduce noise at KERN_WARNING, this patch set the priority level appriopriately for unleveled printks()s. This should be useful to folks that look at dmesg warnings closely.

One of our users reported that when a user-level program SIGSEGVs under UML kernel, the resulting core dump is not very usable. I have reproduced that with the latest kernel: make ARCH=um defconfig; make ARCH=um Run the resulting kernel, then "inside" run this program: #include <pthread.h> void *fn(void *p) { abort(); } int main() { pthread_t tid; pthread_create(&tid, 0, fn, 0); pthread_join(tid, 0); return 0; } Analyze the coredump with GDB. Here is what you'll see: sudo gdb -q -ex 'set solib-absolute-prefix ../root_fs' -ex 'file ../root_fs/var/tmp/mt-abort' -ex 'core ../root_fs/var/tmp/core.762' Reading symbols from /usr/local/google/root_fs/var/tmp/mt-abort...done.

Up to 2.6.22, you could use remap_file_pages(2) on a tmpfs file or a shared mapping of /dev/zero or a shared anonymous mapping. In 2.6.23 we disabled it by default, but set VM_CAN_NONLINEAR to enable it on safe mappings. We made sure to set it in shmem_mmap() for tmpfs files, but missed it in shmem_zero_setup() for the others. Fix that at last.

由 Benjamin Herrenschmidt 提交于
Currently memblock_reserve() or memblock_free() don't handle overlaps of any kind. There is some special casing for coalescing exactly adjacent regions but that's about it. This is annoying because typically memblock_reserve() is used to mark regions passed by the firmware as reserved and we all know how much we can trust our firmwares... Also, with the current code, if we do something it doesn't handle right such as trying to memblock_reserve() a large range spanning multiple existing smaller reserved regions for example, or doing overlapping reservations, it can silently corrupt the internal region array, causing odd errors much later on, such as allocations returning reserved regions etc... This patch rewrites the underlying functions that add or remove a region to the arrays. The new code is a lot more robust as it fully handles overlapping regions. It's also, imho, simpler than the previous implementation. In addition, while doing so, I found a bug where if we fail to double the array while adding a region, we would remove the last region of the array rather than the region we just allocated. This fixes it too.

For range-cyclic writeback (e.g. kupdate), the writeback code sets a continuation point of the next writeback to mapping->writeback_index which is set the page after the last written page. This happens so that we evenly write the whole file even if pages in it get continuously redirtied. However, in some cases, sequential writer is writing in the middle of the page and it just redirties the last written page by continuing from that. For example with an application which uses a file as a big ring buffer we see: [1st writeback session] ... flush-8:0-2743 4571: block_bio_queue: 8,0 W 94898514 + 8 flush-8:0-2743 4571: block_bio_queue: 8,0 W 94898522 + 8 flush-8:0-2743 4571: block_bio_queue: 8,0 W 94898530 + 8 flush-8:0-2743 4571: block_bio_queue: 8,0 W 94898538 + 8 flush-8:0-2743 4571: block_bio_queue: 8,0 W 94898546 + 8 kworker/0:1-11 4571: block_rq_issue: 8,0 W 0 () 94898514 + 40 >> flush-8:0-2743 4571: block_bio_queue: 8,0 W 94898554 + 8 >> flush-8:0-2743 4571: block_rq_issue: 8,0 W 0 () 94898554 + 8 [2nd writeback session after 35sec] flush-8:0-2743 4606: block_bio_queue: 8,0 W 94898562 + 8 flush-8:0-2743 4606: block_bio_queue: 8,0 W 94898570 + 8 flush-8:0-2743 4606: block_bio_queue: 8,0 W 94898578 + 8 ... kworker/0:1-11 4606: block_rq_issue: 8,0 W 0 () 94898562 + 640 kworker/0:1-11 4606: block_rq_issue: 8,0 W 0 () 94899202 + 72 ... flush-8:0-2743 4606: block_bio_queue: 8,0 W 94899962 + 8 flush-8:0-2743 4606: block_bio_queue: 8,0 W 94899970 + 8 flush-8:0-2743 4606: block_bio_queue: 8,0 W 94899978 + 8 flush-8:0-2743 4606: block_bio_queue: 8,0 W 94899986 + 8 flush-8:0-2743 4606: block_bio_queue: 8,0 W 94899994 + 8 kworker/0:1-11 4606: block_rq_issue: 8,0 W 0 () 94899962 + 40 >> flush-8:0-2743 4606: block_bio_queue: 8,0 W 94898554 + 8 >> flush-8:0-2743 4606: block_rq_issue: 8,0 W 0 () 94898554 + 8 So we seeked back to 94898554 after we wrote all the pages at the end of the file. This extra seek seems unnecessary. If we continue writeback from the last written page, we can avoid it and do not cause harm to other cases. The original intent of even writeout over the whole file is preserved and if the page does not get redirtied pagevec_lookup_tag() just skips it. As an exceptional case, when I/O error happens, set done_index to the next page as the comment in the code suggests.

scan_swap_map() is a large function (224 lines), with several loops and a complex control flow involving several gotos. Given all that, it is a bit silly that it is marked as inline. The compiler agrees with me: on a x86-64 compile, it did not inline the function. Remove the "inline" and let the compiler decide instead.

Within sys_swapon, after the swap_info entry has been allocated, we always have type == p->type and swap_info[type] == p. Use this fact to reduce the dependency on the "type" local variable within the function, as a preparation to move the allocation of the swap_info entry to a separate function.

This patch series refactors the sys_swapon function. sys_swapon is currently a very large function, with 313 lines (more than 12 25-line screens), which can make it a bit hard to read. This patch series reduces this size by half, by extracting large chunks of related code to new helper functions. One of these chunks of code was nearly identical to the part of sys_swapoff which is used in case of a failure return from try_to_unuse(), so this patch series also makes both share the same code. As a side effect of all this refactoring, the compiled code gets a bit smaller (from v1 of this patch series): text data bss dec hex filename 14012 944 276 15232 3b80 mm/swapfile.o.before 13941 944 276 15161 3b39 mm/swapfile.o.after This patch: Use vzalloc() instead of vmalloc/memset.

Add a new __GFP_OTHER_NODE flag to tell the low level numa statistics in zone_statistics() that an allocation is on behalf of another thread. This way the local and remote counters can be still correct, even when background daemons like khugepaged are changing memory mappings. This only affects the accounting, but I think it's worth doing that right to avoid confusing users. I first tried to just pass down the right node, but this required a lot of changes to pass down this parameter and at least one addition of a 10th argument to a 9 argument function. Using the flag is a lot less intrusive. Open: should be also used for migration?

__GFP_NO_KSWAPD allocations are usually very expensive and not mandatory to succeed as they have graceful fallback. Waiting for I/O in those, tends to be overkill in terms of latencies, so we can reduce their latency by disabling sync migrate. Unfortunately, even with async migration it's still possible for the process to be blocked waiting for a request slot (e.g. get_request_wait in the block layer) when ->writepage is called. To prevent __GFP_NO_KSWAPD blocking, this patch prevents ->writepage being called on dirty page cache for asynchronous migration.

compaction_alloc() isolates pages for migration in isolate_migratepages. While it's scanning, IRQs are disabled on the mistaken assumption the scanning should be short. Tests show this to be true for the most part but contention times on the LRU lock can be increased. Before this patch, the IRQ disabled times for a simple test looked like Total sampled time IRQs off (not real total time): 5493 Event shrink_inactive_list..shrink_zone 1596 us count 1 Event shrink_inactive_list..shrink_zone 1530 us count 1 Event shrink_inactive_list..shrink_zone 956 us count 1 Event shrink_inactive_list..shrink_zone 541 us count 1 Event shrink_inactive_list..shrink_zone 531 us count 1 Event split_huge_page..add_to_swap 232 us count 1 Event save_args..call_softirq 36 us count 1 Event save_args..call_softirq 35 us count 2 Event __wake_up..__wake_up 1 us count 1 This patch reduces the worst-case IRQs-disabled latencies by releasing the lock every SWAP_CLUSTER_MAX pages that are scanned and releasing the CPU if necessary. The cost of this is that the processing performing compaction will be slower but IRQs being disabled for too long a time has worse consequences as the following report shows; Total sampled time IRQs off (not real total time): 4367 Event shrink_inactive_list..shrink_zone 881 us count 1 Event shrink_inactive_list..shrink_zone 875 us count 1 Event shrink_inactive_list..shrink_zone 868 us count 1 Event shrink_inactive_list..shrink_zone 555 us count 1 Event split_huge_page..add_to_swap 495 us count 1 Event compact_zone..compact_zone_order 269 us count 1 Event split_huge_page..add_to_swap 266 us count 1 Event shrink_inactive_list..shrink_zone 85 us count 1 Event save_args..call_softirq 36 us count 2 Event __wake_up..__wake_up 1 us count 1 [akpm@linux-foundation.org: simplify with s/unlocked/locked/] Signed-off-by: NAndrea Arcangeli <aarcange@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: NMel Gorman <mel@csn.ul.ie> Cc: Johannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org> Cc: Arthur Marsh <arthur.marsh@internode.on.net> Cc: Clemens Ladisch <cladisch@googlemail.com> Cc: KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki <kamezawa.hiroyu@jp.fujitsu.com> Cc: Minchan Kim <minchan.kim@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: NAndrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

compaction_alloc() isolates free pages to be used as migration targets. While its scanning, IRQs are disabled on the mistaken assumption the scanning should be short. Analysis showed that IRQs were in fact being disabled for substantial time. A simple test was run using large anonymous mappings with transparent hugepage support enabled to trigger frequent compactions. A monitor sampled what the worst IRQ-off latencies were and a post-processing tool found the following; Total sampled time IRQs off (not real total time): 22355 Event compaction_alloc..compaction_alloc 8409 us count 1 Event compaction_alloc..compaction_alloc 7341 us count 1 Event compaction_alloc..compaction_alloc 2463 us count 1 Event compaction_alloc..compaction_alloc 2054 us count 1 Event shrink_inactive_list..shrink_zone 1864 us count 1 Event shrink_inactive_list..shrink_zone 88 us count 1 Event save_args..call_softirq 36 us count 1 Event save_args..call_softirq 35 us count 2 Event __make_request..__blk_run_queue 24 us count 1 Event __alloc_pages_nodemask..__alloc_pages_nodemask 6 us count 1 i.e. compaction is disabled IRQs for a prolonged period of time - 8ms in one instance. The full report generated by the tool can be found at http://www.csn.ul.ie/~mel/postings/minfree-20110225/irqsoff-vanilla-micro.report This patch reduces the time IRQs are disabled by simply disabling IRQs at the last possible minute. An updated IRQs-off summary report then looks like; Total sampled time IRQs off (not real total time): 5493 Event shrink_inactive_list..shrink_zone 1596 us count 1 Event shrink_inactive_list..shrink_zone 1530 us count 1 Event shrink_inactive_list..shrink_zone 956 us count 1 Event shrink_inactive_list..shrink_zone 541 us count 1 Event shrink_inactive_list..shrink_zone 531 us count 1 Event split_huge_page..add_to_swap 232 us count 1 Event save_args..call_softirq 36 us count 1 Event save_args..call_softirq 35 us count 2 Event __wake_up..__wake_up 1 us count 1 A full report is again available at http://www.csn.ul.ie/~mel/postings/minfree-20110225/irqsoff-minimiseirq-free-v1r4-micro.report As should be obvious, IRQ disabled latencies due to compaction are almost elimimnated for this particular test.
