      include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking... · 5a0e3ad6
      由 Tejun Heo 提交于 
      include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h

percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.

  http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

The script does the followings.

* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
  only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
  gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
  blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
  to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
  core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
  alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
  doesn't seem to be any matching order.

* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
  because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
  an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
  file.

The conversion was done in the following steps.

1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
   over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
   and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
   files.

2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
   some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
   embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
   inclusions to around 150 files.

3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
   from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
   e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
   APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
   editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
   files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
   inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
   wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
   slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
   necessary.

6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
   were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
   distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
   more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
   build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

   * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
   * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
   * s390 SMP allmodconfig
   * alpha SMP allmodconfig
   * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
   a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

      time: Fix accumulation bug triggered by long delay. · 830ec045
      由 John Stultz 提交于 
      The logarithmic accumulation done in the timekeeping has some overflow
protection that limits the max shift value. That means it will take
more then shift loops to accumulate all of the cycles. This causes
the shift decrement to underflow, which causes the loop to never exit.

The simplest fix would be simply to do a:
	if (shift)
		shift--;

However that is not optimal, as we know the cycle offset is larger
then the interval << shift, the above would make shift drop to zero,
then we would be spinning for quite awhile accumulating at interval
chunks at a time.

Instead, this patch only decreases shift if the offset is smaller
then cycle_interval << shift.  This makes sure we accumulate using
the largest chunks possible without overflowing tick_length, and limits
the number of iterations through the loop.

This issue was found and reported by Sonic Zhang, who also tested the fix.
Many thanks your explanation and testing!

      ring-buffer: Do 8 byte alignment for 64 bit that can not handle 4 byte align · 2271048d
      由 Steven Rostedt 提交于 
      The ring buffer uses 4 byte alignment while recording events into the
buffer, even on 64bit machines. This saves space when there are lots
of events being recorded at 4 byte boundaries.

The ring buffer has a zero copy method to write into the buffer, with
the reserving of space and then committing it. This may cause problems
when writing an 8 byte word into a 4 byte alignment (not 8). For x86 and
PPC this is not an issue, but on some architectures this would cause an
out-of-alignment exception.

This patch uses CONFIG_HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS to determine
if it is OK to use 4 byte alignments on 64 bit machines. If it is not,
it forces the ring buffer event header to be 8 bytes and not 4,
and will align the length of the data to be 8 byte aligned.
This keeps the data payload at 8 byte alignments and will allow these
machines to run without issue.

The trick to this is that the header can be either 4 bytes or 8 bytes
depending on the length of the data payload. The 4 byte header
has a length field that supports up to 112 bytes. If the length of
the data is more than 112, the length field is set to zero, and the actual
length is stored in the next 4 bytes after the header.

When CONFIG_HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS is not set, the code forces
zero in the 4 byte header forcing the length to be stored in the 4 byte
array, even with a small data load. It also forces the length of the
data load to be 8 byte aligned. The combination of these two guarantee
that the data is always at 8 byte alignment.

      perf: Fix unexported generic perf_arch_fetch_caller_regs · dcd5c166
      由 Frederic Weisbecker 提交于 
      perf_arch_fetch_caller_regs() is exported for the overriden x86
version, but not for the generic weak version.

As a general rule, weak functions should not have their symbol
exported in the same file they are defined.

So let's export it on trace_event_perf.c as it is used by trace
events only.

This fixes:

	ERROR: ".perf_arch_fetch_caller_regs" [fs/xfs/xfs.ko] undefined!
	ERROR: ".perf_arch_fetch_caller_regs" [arch/powerpc/platforms/cell/spufs/spufs.ko] undefined!

-v2: And also only build it if trace events are enabled.

      sched: sched_getaffinity(): Allow less than NR_CPUS length · cd3d8031
      由 KOSAKI Motohiro 提交于 
      [ Note, this commit changes the syscall ABI for > 1024 CPUs systems. ]

Recently, some distro decided to use NR_CPUS=4096 for mysterious reasons.
Unfortunately, glibc sched interface has the following definition:

	# define __CPU_SETSIZE  1024
	# define __NCPUBITS     (8 * sizeof (__cpu_mask))
	typedef unsigned long int __cpu_mask;
	typedef struct
	{
	  __cpu_mask __bits[__CPU_SETSIZE / __NCPUBITS];
	} cpu_set_t;

It mean, if NR_CPUS is bigger than 1024, cpu_set_t makes an
ABI issue ...

More recently, Sharyathi Nagesh reported following test program makes
misterious syscall failure:

 -----------------------------------------------------------------------
 #define _GNU_SOURCE
 #include<stdio.h>
 #include<errno.h>
 #include<sched.h>

 int main()
 {
     cpu_set_t set;
     if (sched_getaffinity(0, sizeof(cpu_set_t), &set) < 0)
         printf("\n Call is failing with:%d", errno);
 }
 -----------------------------------------------------------------------

Because the kernel assumes len argument of sched_getaffinity() is bigger
than NR_CPUS. But now it is not correct.

Now we are faced with the following annoying dilemma, due to
the limitations of the glibc interface built in years ago:

 (1) if we change glibc's __CPU_SETSIZE definition, we lost
     binary compatibility of _all_ application.

 (2) if we don't change it, we also lost binary compatibility of
     Sharyathi's use case.

Then, I would propse to change the rule of the len argument of
sched_getaffinity().

Old:
	len should be bigger than NR_CPUS
New:
	len should be bigger than maximum possible cpu id

This creates the following behavior:

 (A) In the real 4096 cpus machine, the above test program still
     return -EINVAL.

 (B) NR_CPUS=4096 but the machine have less than 1024 cpus (almost
     all machines in the world), the above can run successfully.

Fortunatelly, BIG SGI machine is mainly used for HPC use case. It means
they can rebuild their programs.

IOW we hope they are not annoyed by this issue ...
