Impact: improve wakeup affinity on NUMA systems, tweak SMP systems Given the fixes+tweaks to the wakeup-buddy code, re-tweak the domain balancing defaults on NUMA and SMP systems. Turn on SD_WAKE_AFFINE which was off on x86 NUMA - there's no reason why we would not want to have wakeup affinity across nodes as well. (we already do this in the standard NUMA template.) lat_ctx on a NUMA box is particularly happy about this change: before: | phoenix:~/l> ./lat_ctx -s 0 2 | "size=0k ovr=2.60 | 2 5.70 after: | phoenix:~/l> ./lat_ctx -s 0 2 | "size=0k ovr=2.65 | 2 2.07 a 2.75x speedup. pipe-test is similarly happy about it too: | phoenix:~/sched-tests> ./pipe-test | 18.26 usecs/loop. | 14.70 usecs/loop. | 14.38 usecs/loop. | 10.55 usecs/loop. # +WAKE_AFFINE on domain0+domain1 | 8.63 usecs/loop. | 8.59 usecs/loop. | 9.03 usecs/loop. | 8.94 usecs/loop. | 8.96 usecs/loop. | 8.63 usecs/loop. Also: - disable SD_BALANCE_NEWIDLE on NUMA and SMP domains (keep it for siblings) - enable SD_WAKE_BALANCE on SMP domains Sysbench+postgresql improves all around the board, quite significantly: .28-rc3-11474e2c .28-rc3-11474e2c-tune ------------------------------------------------- 1: 571 688 +17.08% 2: 1236 1206 -2.55% 4: 2381 2642 +9.89% 8: 4958 5164 +3.99% 16: 9580 9574 -0.07% 32: 7128 8118 +12.20% 64: 7342 8266 +11.18% 128: 7342 8064 +8.95% 256: 7519 7884 +4.62% 512: 7350 7731 +4.93% ------------------------------------------------- SUM: 55412 59341 +6.62% So it's a win both for the runup portion, the peak area and the tail.

Impact: improve/change/fix wakeup-buddy scheduling Currently we only have a forward looking buddy, that is, we prefer to schedule to the task we last woke up, under the presumption that its going to consume the data we just produced, and therefore will have cache hot benefits. This allows co-waking producer/consumer task pairs to run ahead of the pack for a little while, keeping their cache warm. Without this, we would interleave all pairs, utterly trashing the cache. This patch introduces a backward looking buddy, that is, suppose that in the above scenario, the consumer preempts the producer before it can go to sleep, we will therefore miss the wakeup from consumer to producer (its already running, after all), breaking the cycle and reverting to the cache-trashing interleaved schedule pattern. The backward buddy will try to schedule back to the task that woke us up in case the forward buddy is not available, under the assumption that the last task will be the one with the most cache hot task around barring current. This will basically allow a task to continue after it got preempted. In order to avoid starvation, we allow either buddy to get wakeup_gran ahead of the pack.

Peter Moulder has pointed out that there is a slight chance that a negative value might be passed to jiffies_to_msecs() in ata_scsi_park_show(). This is fixed by saving the value of jiffies in a local variable, thus also reducing code since the volatile variable jiffies is accessed only once.

All three flavors of sata_nv's are different in how their hardreset behaves. * generic: Hardreset is not reliable. Link often doesn't come online after hardreset. * nf2/3: A little bit better - link comes online with longer debounce timing. However, nf2/3 can't reliable wait for the first D2H Register FIS, so it can't wait for device readiness or classify the device after hardreset. Follow-up SRST required. * ck804: Hardreset finally works. The core layer change to prefer hardreset and follow up changes exposed the above issues and caused various detection regressions for all three flavors. This patch, hopefully, fixes all the known issues and should make sata_nv error handling more reliable. Signed-off-by: NTejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: NJeff Garzik <jgarzik@redhat.com>

Promise ATA engines need to be reset when errors occur. That's currently done for errors detected by sata_promise itself, but it's not done for errors like timeouts detected outside of the low-level driver. The effect of this omission is that a timeout tends to result in a sequence of failed COMRESETs after which libata EH gives up and disables the port. At that point the port's ATA engine hangs and even reloading the driver will not resume it. To fix this, make sata_promise override ->hardreset on SATA ports with code which calls pdc_reset_port() on the port in question before calling libata's hardreset. PATA ports don't use ->hardreset, so for those we override ->softreset instead. Signed-off-by: NMikael Pettersson <mikpe@it.uu.se> Signed-off-by: NJeff Garzik <jgarzik@redhat.com>

由 Lennert Buytenhek 提交于
The mv643xx_eth mii bus implementation uses wait_event_timeout() to wait for SMI completion interrupts. If wait_event_timeout() would return zero, mv643xx_eth would conclude that the SMI access timed out, but this is not necessarily true -- wait_event_timeout() can also return zero in the case where the SMI completion interrupt did happen in time but where it took longer than the requested timeout for the process performing the SMI access to be scheduled again. This would lead to occasional SMI access timeouts when the system would be under heavy load. The fix is to ignore the return value of wait_event_timeout(), and to re-check the SMI done bit after wait_event_timeout() returns to determine whether or not the SMI access timed out.

Impact: ia64+tracing build fix When a function is kprobed, the return address is set to the kprobe_trampoline, or something similar. This caused the output of the trace to look confusing when the parent seemed to be this "kprobe_trampoline" function. To fix this, Abhishek Sagar added a test of the instruction pointer of the parent to see if it matched the kprobe_trampoline. If it did, the output would print a "[unknown/kretprobe'd]" instead. Unfortunately, not all archs do this the same way, and the trampoline function may not be exported, which causes failures in builds. This patch will compare the name instead of the pointer to see if it matches. This prevents us from depending on a function from being exported, and should work on all archs. The worst that can happen is that an arch might use a different name and then we go back to the confusing output. At least the arch will still build.
