      slow-work: use round_jiffies() for thread pool's cull and OOM timers · 009789f0
      由 Chris Peterson 提交于 
      Round the slow work queue's cull and OOM timeouts to whole second boundary
with round_jiffies().  The slow work queue uses a pair of timers to cull
idle threads and, after OOM, to delay new thread creation.

This patch also extracts the mod_timer() logic for the cull timer into a
separate helper function.

By rounding non-time-critical timers such as these to whole seconds, they
will be batched up to fire at the same time rather than being spread out.
This allows the CPU wake up less, which saves power.

      mm, PM/Freezer: Disable OOM killer when tasks are frozen · 7f33d49a
      由 Rafael J. Wysocki 提交于 
      Currently, the following scenario appears to be possible in theory:

* Tasks are frozen for hibernation or suspend.
* Free pages are almost exhausted.
* Certain piece of code in the suspend code path attempts to allocate
  some memory using GFP_KERNEL and allocation order less than or
  equal to PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY_ORDER.
* __alloc_pages_internal() cannot find a free page so it invokes the
  OOM killer.
* The OOM killer attempts to kill a task, but the task is frozen, so
  it doesn't die immediately.
* __alloc_pages_internal() jumps to 'restart', unsuccessfully tries
  to find a free page and invokes the OOM killer.
* No progress can be made.

Although it is now hard to trigger during hibernation due to the memory
shrinking carried out by the hibernation code, it is theoretically
possible to trigger during suspend after the memory shrinking has been
removed from that code path.  Moreover, since memory allocations are
going to be used for the hibernation memory shrinking, it will be even
more likely to happen during hibernation.

To prevent it from happening, introduce the oom_killer_disabled switch
that will cause __alloc_pages_internal() to fail in the situations in
which the OOM killer would have been called and make the freezer set
this switch after tasks have been successfully frozen.

      page allocator: do not check NUMA node ID when the caller knows the node is valid · 6484eb3e

      Callers of alloc_pages_node() can optionally specify -1 as a node to mean
"allocate from the current node".  However, a number of the callers in
fast paths know for a fact their node is valid.  To avoid a comparison and
branch, this patch adds alloc_pages_exact_node() that only checks the nid
with VM_BUG_ON().  Callers that know their node is valid are then

      cpuset,mm: update tasks' mems_allowed in time · 58568d2a
      由 Miao Xie 提交于 
      Fix allocating page cache/slab object on the unallowed node when memory
spread is set by updating tasks' mems_allowed after its cpuset's mems is
changed.

In order to update tasks' mems_allowed in time, we must modify the code of
memory policy.  Because the memory policy is applied in the process's
context originally.  After applying this patch, one task directly
manipulates anothers mems_allowed, and we use alloc_lock in the
task_struct to protect mems_allowed and memory policy of the task.

But in the fast path, we didn't use lock to protect them, because adding a
lock may lead to performance regression.  But if we don't add a lock,the
task might see no nodes when changing cpuset's mems_allowed to some
non-overlapping set.  In order to avoid it, we set all new allowed nodes,
then clear newly disallowed ones.

[lee.schermerhorn@hp.com:
  The rework of mpol_new() to extract the adjusting of the node mask to
  apply cpuset and mpol flags "context" breaks set_mempolicy() and mbind()
  with MPOL_PREFERRED and a NULL nodemask--i.e., explicit local
  allocation.  Fix this by adding the check for MPOL_PREFERRED and empty
  node mask to mpol_new_mpolicy().

  Remove the now unneeded 'nodes = NULL' from mpol_new().

  Note that mpol_new_mempolicy() is always called with a non-NULL
  'nodes' parameter now that it has been removed from mpol_new().
  Therefore, we don't need to test nodes for NULL before testing it for
  'empty'.  However, just to be extra paranoid, add a VM_BUG_ON() to
  verify this assumption.]
[lee.schermerhorn@hp.com:

  I don't think the function name 'mpol_new_mempolicy' is descriptive
  enough to differentiate it from mpol_new().

  This function applies cpuset set context, usually constraining nodes
  to those allowed by the cpuset.  However, when the 'RELATIVE_NODES flag
  is set, it also translates the nodes.  So I settled on
  'mpol_set_nodemask()', because the comment block for mpol_new() mentions
  that we need to call this function to "set nodes".

  Some additional minor line length, whitespace and typo cleanup.]

      cpusets: restructure the function cpuset_update_task_memory_state() · f3b39d47
      由 Miao Xie 提交于 
      The kernel still allocates the page caches on old node after modifying its
cpuset's mems when 'memory_spread_page' was set, or it didn't spread the
page cache evenly over all the nodes that faulting task is allowed to usr
after memory_spread_page was set.  it is caused by the old mem_allowed and
flags of the task, the current kernel doesn't updates them unless some
function invokes cpuset_update_task_memory_state(), it is too late
sometimes.We must update the mem_allowed and the flags of the tasks in
time.

Slab has the same problem.

The following patches fix this bug by updating tasks' mem_allowed and
spread flag after its cpuset's mems or spread flag is changed.

This patch:

Extract a function from cpuset_update_task_memory_state().  It will be
used later for update tasks' page/slab spread flags after its cpuset's

      This adds a KERN_DEFAULT loglevel marker, for when you cannot decide
which loglevel you want, and just want to keep an existing printk
with the default loglevel.

The difference between having KERN_DEFAULT and having no log-level
marker at all is two-fold:

 - having the log-level marker will now force a new-line if the
   previous printout had not added one (perhaps because it forgot,
   but perhaps because it expected a continuation)

 - having a log-level marker is required if you are printing out a
   message that otherwise itself could perhaps otherwise be mistaken
   for a log-level.

      printk: clean up handling of log-levels and newlines · 5fd29d6c
      由 Linus Torvalds 提交于 
      It used to be that we would only look at the log-level in a printk()
after explicit newlines, which can cause annoying problems when the
previous printk() did not end with a '\n'. In that case, the log-level
marker would be just printed out in the middle of the line, and be
seen as just noise rather than change the logging level.

This changes things to always look at the log-level in the first
bytes of the printout. If a log level marker is found, it is always
used as the log-level. Additionally, if no newline existed, one is
added (unless the log-level is the explicit KERN_CONT marker, to
explicitly show that it's a continuation of a previous line).

      sched: delayed cleanup of user_struct · 3959214f
      由 Kay Sievers 提交于 
      During bootup performance tracing we see repeated occurrences of
/sys/kernel/uid/* events for the same uid, leading to a,
in this case, rather pointless userspace processing for the
same uid over and over.

This is usually caused by tools which change their uid to "nobody",
to run without privileges to read data supplied by untrusted users.

This change delays the execution of the (already existing) scheduled
work, to cleanup the uid after one second, so the allocated and announced
uid can possibly be re-used by another process.

This is the current behavior, where almost every invocation of a
binary, which changes the uid, creates two events:
  $ read START < /sys/kernel/uevent_seqnum; \
  for i in `seq 100`; do su --shell=/bin/true bin; done; \
  read END < /sys/kernel/uevent_seqnum; \
  echo $(($END - $START))
  178

With the delayed cleanup, we get only two events, and userspace finishes
a bit faster too:
  $ read START < /sys/kernel/uevent_seqnum; \
  for i in `seq 100`; do su --shell=/bin/true bin; done; \
  read END < /sys/kernel/uevent_seqnum; \

      kmemcheck: add mm functions · 2dff4405
      由 Vegard Nossum 提交于 
      With kmemcheck enabled, the slab allocator needs to do this:

1. Tell kmemcheck to allocate the shadow memory which stores the status of
   each byte in the allocation proper, e.g. whether it is initialized or
   uninitialized.
2. Tell kmemcheck which parts of memory that should be marked uninitialized.
   There are actually a few more states, such as "not yet allocated" and
   "recently freed".

If a slab cache is set up using the SLAB_NOTRACK flag, it will never return
memory that can take page faults because of kmemcheck.

If a slab cache is NOT set up using the SLAB_NOTRACK flag, callers can still
request memory with the __GFP_NOTRACK flag. This does not prevent the page
faults from occuring, however, but marks the object in question as being
initialized so that no warnings will ever be produced for this object.

In addition to (and in contrast to) __GFP_NOTRACK, the
__GFP_NOTRACK_FALSE_POSITIVE flag indicates that the allocation should
not be tracked _because_ it would produce a false positive. Their values
are identical, but need not be so in the future (for example, we could now
enable/disable false positives with a config option).

Parts of this patch were contributed by Pekka Enberg but merged for
atomicity.

We allow growing the structure by appending fields at the end by specifying

When a new kernel sees a smaller (old) structure, it will 0 pad the tail.
When an old kernel sees a larger (new) structure, it will verify the tail
consists of 0s, otherwise fail.

If we fail due to a size-mismatch, we return -E2BIG and write the kernel's
native attribe size back into the provided structure.

Furthermore, add some attribute verification, so that we'll fail counter
creation when unknown bits are present (PERF_SAMPLE, PERF_FORMAT, or in
the __reserved fields).

      module: trim exception table on init free. · ad6561df
      由 Rusty Russell 提交于 
      It's theoretically possible that there are exception table entries
which point into the (freed) init text of modules.  These could cause
future problems if other modules get loaded into that memory and cause
an exception as we'd see the wrong fixup.  The only case I know of is
kvm-intel.ko (when CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE=n).

Amerigo fixed this long-standing FIXME in the x86 version, but this
patch is more general.

This implements trim_init_extable(); most archs are simple since they
use the standard lib/extable.c sort code.  Alpha and IA64 use relative
addresses in their fixups, so thier trimming is a slight variation.

Sparc32 is unique; it doesn't seem to define ARCH_HAS_SORT_EXTABLE,
yet it defines its own sort_extable() which overrides the one in lib.
It doesn't sort, so we have to mark deleted entries instead of
actually trimming them.
