In the process of writing up the mechanical proof of correctness for the dynticks/preemptable-RCU interface, I noticed misplaced memory barriers in rcu_enter_nohz() and rcu_exit_nohz(). This patch puts them in the right place and adds a comment. The key thing to keep in mind is that rcu_enter_nohz() is -exiting- the mode that can legally execute RCU read-side critical sections. The memory barrier must be between any potential RCU read-side critical sections and the increment of the per-CPU dynticks_progress_counter, and thus must come -before- this increment. And vice versa for rcu_exit_nohz(). The locking in the scheduler is probably saving us for the moment. Also, switch to smp_mb() - we don't need a barrier for uniprocessor kernels.

improve affine wakeups. Maintain the 'overlap' metric based on CFS's sum_exec_runtime - which means the amount of time a task executes after it wakes up some other task. Use the 'overlap' for the wakeup decisions: if the 'overlap' is short, it means there's strong workload coupling between this task and the woken up task. If the 'overlap' is large then the workload is decoupled and the scheduler will move them to separate CPUs more easily. ( Also slightly move the preempt_check within try_to_wake_up() - this has no effect on functionality but allows 'early wakeups' (for still-on-rq tasks) to be correctly accounted as well.)

V . interrupt is delivered . skb_recv_done does atomic napi test, ok some waiting disable_cb is called->check fails->bang! . poll would do napi check poll would do disable_cb The fix is to let enable_cb not disable the interrupt again, but expect the caller to do the cleanup if it returns false. In that case, the interrupt is only disabled, if the napi test_set_bit was successful.

Commit 721fdf34 introduced a subtle bug by accidently removing the "static" from iodc_dbuf. This resulted in, what appeared to be, a trap without *current set to a task.

Comparing with kernel 2.6.24, tbench result has regression with 2.6.25-rc1. 1) On 2 quad-core processor stoakley: 4%. 2) On 4 quad-core processor tigerton: more than 30%. bisect located below patch. b4ce9277 is first bad commit commit b4ce9277 Author: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Date: Tue Nov 13 21:33:32 2007 -0800 [IPV6]: Move nfheader_len into rt6_info The dst member nfheader_len is only used by IPv6. It's also currently creating a rather ugly alignment hole in struct dst. Therefore this patch moves it from there into struct rt6_info. Above patch changes the cache line alignment, especially member __refcnt. I did a testing by adding 2 unsigned long pading before lastuse, so the 3 members, lastuse/__refcnt/__use, are moved to next cache line. The performance is recovered. I created a patch to rearrange the members in struct dst_entry. With Eric and Valdis Kletnieks's suggestion, I made finer arrangement. 1) Move tclassid under ops in case CONFIG_NET_CLS_ROUTE=y. So sizeof(dst_entry)=200 no matter if CONFIG_NET_CLS_ROUTE=y/n. I tested many patches on my 16-core tigerton by moving tclassid to different place. It looks like tclassid could also have impact on performance. If moving tclassid before metrics, or just don't move tclassid, the performance isn't good. So I move it behind metrics. 2) Add comments before __refcnt. On 16-core tigerton: If CONFIG_NET_CLS_ROUTE=y, the result with below patch is about 18% better than the one without the patch; If CONFIG_NET_CLS_ROUTE=n, the result with below patch is about 30% better than the one without the patch. With 32bit 2.6.25-rc1 on 8-core stoakley, the new patch doesn't introduce regression. Thank Eric, Valdis, and David!

Introduced in commit-id 9e2779fa and ifdef'ed out for nommu in 8ca3ed87, both approaches end up breaking the nommu build in different ways. An impressive feat for a 2-liner. Current is_vmalloc_addr() users fall in to two camps: - Determining whether to use vfree()/kfree() - Whether to do vmlist traversal (only /proc/kcore). Since we don't support /proc/kcore on nommu, that leaves the vfree()/kfree() determination use cases. nommu vfree() happens to be a wrapper to kfree() anyways, so is_vmalloc_addr() can always return 0 and end up with the right behaviour.

quicklists cause a serious memory leak on 32-bit x86, as documented at: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9991 the reason is that the quicklist pool is a special-purpose cache that grows out of proportion. It is not accounted for anywhere and users have no way to even realize that it's the quicklists that are causing RAM usage spikes. It was supposed to be a relatively small pool, but as demonstrated by KOSAKI Motohiro, they can grow as large as: Quicklists: 1194304 kB given how much trouble this code has caused historically, and given that Andrew objected to its introduction on x86 (years ago), the best option at this point is to remove them.
