The function is_exported() with its helper function lookup_symbol() are used to verify if a provided symbol is effectively exported by the kernel or by the modules. Now that both have their symbols sorted we can replace a linear search with a binary search which provide a considerably speed-up.

While debugging I stumbled over two problems in the code that protects module pages. First issue is that disabling the protection before freeing init or unload of a module is not symmetric with the enablement. For instance, if pages are set to RO the page range from module_core to module_core + core_ro_size is protected. If a module is unloaded the page range from module_core to module_core + core_size is set back to RW. So pages that were not set to RO are also changed to RW. This is not critical but IMHO it should be symmetric. Second issue is that while set_memory_rw & set_memory_ro are used for RO/RW changes only set_memory_nx is involved for NX/X. One would await that the inverse function is called when the NX protection should be removed, which is not the case here, unless I'm missing something.

On m68k natural alignment is 2-byte boundary but we are trying to align structures in __modver section on sizeof(void *) boundary. This causes trouble when we try to access elements in this section in array-like fashion when create "version" attributes for built-in modules. Moreover, as DaveM said, we can't reliably put structures into independent objects, put them into a special section, and then expect array access over them (via the section boundaries) after linking the objects together to just "work" due to variable alignment choices in different situations. The only solution that seems to work reliably is to make an array of plain pointers to the objects in question and put those pointers in the special section.

Since users of the function tracer can now pick and choose which functions they want to trace agnostically from other users of the function tracer, we need to pass the ops struct to the ftrace_set_filter() functions.

Now that functions may be selected individually, it only makes sense that we should allow dynamically allocated trace structures to be traced. This will allow perf to allocate a ftrace_ops structure at runtime and use it to pick and choose which functions that structure will trace. Note, a dynamically allocated ftrace_ops will always be called indirectly instead of being called directly from the mcount in entry.S. This is because there's no safe way to prevent mcount from being preempted before calling the function, unless we modify every entry.S to do so (not likely). Thus, dynamically allocated functions will now be called by the ftrace_ops_list_func() that loops through the ops that are allocated if there are more than one op allocated at a time. This loop is protected with a preempt_disable. To determine if an ftrace_ops structure is allocated or not, a new util function was added to the kernel/extable.c called core_kernel_data(), which returns 1 if the address is between _sdata and _edata.

由 Steven Rostedt 提交于
Every function has its own record that stores the instruction pointer and flags for the function to be traced. There are only two flags: enabled and free. The enabled flag states that tracing for the function has been enabled (actively traced), and the free flag states that the record no longer points to a function and can be used by new functions (loaded modules). These flags are now moved to the MSB of the flags (actually just the top 32bits). The rest of the bits (30 bits) are now used as a ref counter. Everytime a tracer register functions to trace, those functions will have its counter incremented. When tracing is enabled, to determine if a function should be traced, the counter is examined, and if it is non-zero it is set to trace. When a ftrace_ops is registered to trace functions, its hashes are examined. If the ftrace_ops filter_hash count is zero, then all functions are set to be traced, otherwise only the functions in the hash are to be traced. The exception to this is if a function is also in the ftrace_ops notrace_hash. Then that function's counter is not incremented for this ftrace_ops.

When filtering, allocate a hash to insert the function records. After the filtering is complete, assign it to the ftrace_ops structure. This allows the ftrace_ops structure to have a much smaller array of hash buckets instead of wasting a lot of memory. A read only empty_hash is created to be the minimum size that any ftrace_ops can point to. When a new hash is created, it has the following steps: o Allocate a default hash. o Walk the function records assigning the filtered records to the hash o Allocate a new hash with the appropriate size buckets o Move the entries from the default hash to the new hash.

If device drivers allocate substantial amounts of memory (above 1 MB) in their hibernate .freeze() callbacks (or in their legacy suspend callbcks during hibernation), the subsequent creation of hibernate image may fail due to the lack of memory. This is the case, because the drivers' .freeze() callbacks are executed after the hibernate memory preallocation has been carried out and the preallocated amount of memory may be too small to cover the new driver allocations. Unfortunately, the drivers' .prepare() callbacks also are executed after the hibernate memory preallocation has completed, so they are not suitable for allocating additional memory either. Thus the only way a driver can safely allocate memory during hibernation is to use a hibernate/suspend notifier. However, the notifiers are called before the freezing of user space and the drivers wanting to use them for allocating additional memory may not know how much memory needs to be allocated at that point. To let device drivers overcome this difficulty rework the hibernation sequence so that the memory preallocation is carried out after the drivers' .prepare() callbacks have been executed, so that the .prepare() callbacks can be used for allocating additional memory to be used by the drivers' .freeze() callbacks. Update documentation to match the new behavior of the code. Signed-off-by: NRafael J. Wysocki <rjw@sisk.pl>

Martin reports that on his system hibernation occasionally fails due to the lack of memory, because the radeon driver apparently allocates too much of it during the device freeze stage. It turns out that the amount of memory allocated by radeon during hibernation (and presumably during system suspend too) depends on the utilization of the GPU (e.g. hibernating while there are two KDE 4 sessions with compositing enabled causes radeon to allocate more memory than for one KDE 4 session). In principle it should be possible to use image_size to make the memory preallocation mechanism free enough memory for the radeon driver, but in practice it is not easy to guess the right value because of the way the preallocation code uses image_size. For this reason, it seems reasonable to allow users to control the amount of memory reserved for driver allocations made after the hibernate preallocation, which currently is constant and amounts to 1 MB. Introduce a new sysfs file, /sys/power/reserved_size, whose value will be used as the amount of memory to reserve for the post-preallocation reservations made by device drivers, in bytes. For backwards compatibility, set its default (and initial) value to the currently used number (1 MB).

Some drivers erroneously use request_firmware() from their ->resume() (or ->thaw(), or ->restore()) callbacks, which is not going to work unless the firmware has been built in. This causes system resume to stall until the firmware-loading timeout expires, which makes users think that the resume has failed and reboot their machines unnecessarily. For this reason, make _request_firmware() print a warning and return immediately with error code if it has been called when tasks are frozen and it's impossible to start any new usermode helpers.

The first cpu which switches from periodic to oneshot mode switches also the broadcast device into oneshot mode. The broadcast device serves as a backup for per cpu timers which stop in deeper C-states. To avoid starvation of the cpus which might be in idle and depend on broadcast mode it marks the other cpus as broadcast active and sets the brodcast expiry value of those cpus to the next tick. The oneshot mode broadcast bit for the other cpus is sticky and gets only cleared when those cpus exit idle. If a cpu was not idle while the bit got set in consequence the bit prevents that the broadcast device is armed on behalf of that cpu when it enters idle for the first time after it switched to oneshot mode. In most cases that goes unnoticed as one of the other cpus has usually a timer pending which keeps the broadcast device armed with a short timeout. Now if the only cpu which has a short timer active has the bit set then the broadcast device will not be armed on behalf of that cpu and will fire way after the expected timer expiry. In the case of Christians bug report it took ~145 seconds which is about half of the wrap around time of HPET (the limit for that device) due to the fact that all other cpus had no timers armed which expired before the 145 seconds timeframe. The solution is simply to clear the broadcast active bit unconditionally when a cpu switches to oneshot mode after the first cpu switched the broadcast device over. It's not idle at that point otherwise it would not be executing that code. [ I fundamentally hate that broadcast crap. Why the heck thought some folks that when going into deep idle it's a brilliant concept to switch off the last device which brings the cpu back from that state? ] Thanks to Christian for providing all the valuable debug information!

If the inverse loadweight should be zero, function "calc_delta_mine" calculates the inverse of "lw->weight" (in 32bit integer ops). This calculation is actually a little bit impure (because it is inverting something around "lw-weight"+1), especially when "lw->weight" becomes smaller. The correct inverse would be 1/lw->weight multiplied by "WMULT_CONST" for fixcomma-scaling it into integers. (So WMULT_CONST/lw->weight ...) The old, impure algorithm took two divisions for inverting lw->weight, the new, more exact one only takes one and an additional unlikely-if.
