由 Waiman Long 提交于
This just replaces the dentry count/lock combination with the lockref structure that contains both a count and a spinlock, and does the mechanical conversion to use the lockref infrastructure. There are no semantic changes here, it's purely syntactic. The reference lockref implementation uses the spinlock exactly the same way that the old dcache code did, and the bulk of this patch is just expanding the internal "d_count" use in the dcache code to use "d_lockref.count" instead. This is purely preparation for the real change to make the reference count updates be lockless during the 3.12 merge window. [ As with the previous commit, this is a rewritten version of a concept originally from Waiman, so credit goes to him, blame for any errors goes to me. Waiman's patch had some semantic differences for taking advantage of the lockless update in dget_parent(), while this patch is intentionally a pure search-and-replace change with no semantic changes. - Linus ] Signed-off-by: NWaiman Long <Waiman.Long@hp.com> Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

由 Waiman Long 提交于
This introduces a new "lockref" structure that supports the concept of lockless updates of reference counts that still honor an attached spinlock. NOTE! This reference implementation is not the optimized lockless version, rather it is the fallback implementation using standard spinlocks. The actual optimized versions will be merged into 3.12, but I wanted to get the infrastructure in place and document the new interfaces. [ Also note that this particular commit is drastically cut-down minimal version of the original patch by Waiman. In order to properly credit the original author I'm marking Waiman as the author here, but in the end this patch bears little resemblance to the patch by Waiman. So blame any errors on me editing things down to the point where I can introduce the infrastructure before the merge window for 3.12 actually opens. - Linus ] Signed-off-by: NWaiman Long <Waiman.Long@hp.com> Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

This reverts commit df54d6fa. The commit isn't necessarily wrong, but because it recalculates the random mmap_base every time, it seems to confuse user memory allocators that expect contiguous mmap allocations even when the mmap address isn't specified. In particular, the MATLAB Java runtime seems to be unhappy. See https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=60774 So we'll want to apply the random offset only once, and Radu has a patch for that. Revert this older commit in order to apply the other one.

This patch adds wait_event_interruptible_lock_irq_timeout(), which is a straight-forward descendant of wait_event_interruptible_timeout() and wait_event_interruptible_lock_irq(). The zfcp driver used to call wait_event_interruptible_timeout() in combination with some intricate and error-prone locking. Using wait_event_interruptible_lock_irq_timeout() as a replacement nicely cleans up that locking. This rework removes a situation that resulted in a locking imbalance in zfcp_qdio_sbal_get(): BUG: workqueue leaked lock or atomic: events/1/0xffffff00/10 last function: zfcp_fc_wka_port_offline+0x0/0xa0 [zfcp] It was introduced by commit c2af7545 "[SCSI] zfcp: Do not wait for SBALs on stopped queue", which had a new code path related to ZFCP_STATUS_ADAPTER_QDIOUP that took an early exit without a required lock being held. The problem occured when a special, non-SCSI I/O request was being submitted in process context, when the adapter's queues had been torn down. In this case the bug surfaced when the Fibre Channel port connection for a well-known address was closed during a concurrent adapter shut-down procedure, which is a rare constellation. This patch also fixes these warnings from the sparse tool (make C=1): drivers/s390/scsi/zfcp_qdio.c:224:12: warning: context imbalance in 'zfcp_qdio_sbal_check' - wrong count at exit drivers/s390/scsi/zfcp_qdio.c:244:5: warning: context imbalance in 'zfcp_qdio_sbal_get' - unexpected unlock Last but not least, we get rid of that crappy lock-unlock-lock sequence at the beginning of the critical section. It is okay to call zfcp_erp_adapter_reopen() with req_q_lock held.

In the previous QUERY_PAGES command version we used one command to get the required amount of boot, init and post init pages. The new version uses the op_mod field to specify whether the query is for the required amount of boot, init or post init pages. In addition the output field size for the required amount of pages increased from 16 to 32 bits. In MANAGE_PAGES command the input_num_entries and output_num_entries fields sizes changed from 16 to 32 bits and the PAS tables offset changed to 0x10. In the pages request event the num_pages field also changed to 32 bits. In the HCA-capabilities-layout the size and location of max_qp_mcg field has been changed to support 24 bits. This patch isn't compatible with firmware versions < 5; however, it turns out that the first GA firmware we will publish will not support previous versions so this should be OK.

Fix inadvertent breakage in the clone syscall ABI for Microblaze that was introduced in commit f3268edb ("microblaze: switch to generic fork/vfork/clone"). The Microblaze syscall ABI for clone takes the parent tid address in the 4th argument; the third argument slot is used for the stack size. The incorrectly-used CLONE_BACKWARDS type assigned parent tid to the 3rd slot. This commit restores the original ABI so that existing userspace libc code will work correctly.

由 Cyrill Gorcunov 提交于
Andy Lutomirski reported that if a page with _PAGE_SOFT_DIRTY bit set get swapped out, the bit is getting lost and no longer available when pte read back. To resolve this we introduce _PTE_SWP_SOFT_DIRTY bit which is saved in pte entry for the page being swapped out. When such page is to be read back from a swap cache we check for bit presence and if it's there we clear it and restore the former _PAGE_SOFT_DIRTY bit back. One of the problem was to find a place in pte entry where we can save the _PTE_SWP_SOFT_DIRTY bit while page is in swap. The _PAGE_PSE was chosen for that, it doesn't intersect with swap entry format stored in pte.

This is only theoretical, but after try_to_wake_up(p) was changed to check p->state under p->pi_lock the code like __set_current_state(TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE); schedule(); can miss a signal. This is the special case of wait-for-condition, it relies on try_to_wake_up/schedule interaction and thus it does not need mb() between __set_current_state() and if(signal_pending). However, this __set_current_state() can move into the critical section protected by rq->lock, now that try_to_wake_up() takes another lock we need to ensure that it can't be reordered with "if (signal_pending(current))" check inside that section. The patch is actually one-liner, it simply adds smp_wmb() before spin_lock_irq(rq->lock). This is what try_to_wake_up() already does by the same reason. We turn this wmb() into the new helper, smp_mb__before_spinlock(), for better documentation and to allow the architectures to change the default implementation. While at it, kill smp_mb__after_lock(), it has no callers. Perhaps we can also add smp_mb__before/after_spinunlock() for prepare_to_wait().

tracing_read_pipe zeros all fields bellow "seq". The declaration contains a comment about that, but it doesn't help. The first field is "snapshot", it's true when current open file is snapshot. Looks obvious, that it should not be zeroed. The second field is "started". It was converted from cpumask_t to cpumask_var_t (v2.6.28-4983-g4462344e), in other words it was converted from cpumask to pointer on cpumask. Currently the reference on "started" memory is lost after the first read from tracing_read_pipe and a proper object will never be freed. The "started" is never dereferenced for trace_pipe, because trace_pipe can't have the TRACE_FILE_ANNOTATE options.

vmpressure is called synchronously from reclaim where the target_memcg is guaranteed to be alive but the eventfd is signaled from the work queue context. This means that memcg (along with vmpressure structure which is embedded into it) might go away while the work item is pending which would result in use-after-release bug. We have two possible ways how to fix this. Either vmpressure pins memcg before it schedules vmpr->work and unpin it in vmpressure_work_fn or explicitely flush the work item from the css_offline context (as suggested by Tejun). This patch implements the later one and it introduces vmpressure_cleanup which flushes the vmpressure work queue item item. It hooks into mem_cgroup_css_offline after the memcg itself is cleaned up.

Change trace_remove_event_call(call) to return the error if this call is active. This is what the callers assume but can't verify outside of the tracing locks. Both trace_kprobe.c/trace_uprobe.c need the additional changes, unregister_trace_probe() should abort if trace_remove_event_call() fails. The caller is going to free this call/file so we must ensure that nobody can use them after trace_remove_event_call() succeeds. debugfs should be fine after the previous changes and event_remove() does TRACE_REG_UNREGISTER, but still there are 2 reasons why we need the additional checks: - There could be a perf_event(s) attached to this tp_event, so the patch checks ->perf_refcount. - TRACE_REG_UNREGISTER can be suppressed by FTRACE_EVENT_FL_SOFT_MODE, so we simply check FTRACE_EVENT_FL_ENABLED protected by event_mutex.

Calling freeze_processes sets a global flag that will cause any process that calls try_to_freeze to enter the refrigerator. It skips sending a signal to the current task, but if the current task ever hits try_to_freeze, all threads will be frozen and the system will deadlock. Set a new flag, PF_SUSPEND_TASK, on the task that calls freeze_processes. The flag notifies the freezer that the thread is involved in suspend and should not be frozen. Also add a WARN_ON in thaw_processes if the caller does not have the PF_SUSPEND_TASK flag set to catch if a different task calls thaw_processes than the one that called freeze_processes, leaving a task with PF_SUSPEND_TASK permanently set on it. Threads that spawn off a task with PF_SUSPEND_TASK set (which swsusp does) will also have PF_SUSPEND_TASK set, preventing them from freezing while they are helping with suspend, but they need to be dead by the time suspend is triggered, otherwise they may run when userspace is expected to be frozen. Add a WARN_ON in thaw_processes if more than one thread has the PF_SUSPEND_TASK flag set.

Revert commit 69a37bea (cpuidle: Quickly notice prediction failure for repeat mode), because it has been identified as the source of a significant performance regression in v3.8 and later as explained by Jeremy Eder: We believe we've identified a particular commit to the cpuidle code that seems to be impacting performance of variety of workloads. The simplest way to reproduce is using netperf TCP_RR test, so we're using that, on a pair of Sandy Bridge based servers. We also have data from a large database setup where performance is also measurably/positively impacted, though that test data isn't easily share-able. Included below are test results from 3 test kernels: kernel reverts ----------------------------------------------------------- 1) vanilla upstream (no reverts) 2) perfteam2 reverts e11538d1 3) test reverts 69a37bea e11538d1 In summary, netperf TCP_RR numbers improve by approximately 4% after reverting 69a37bea. When 69a37bea is included, C0 residency never seems to get above 40%. Taking that patch out gets C0 near 100% quite often, and performance increases. The below data are histograms representing the %c0 residency @ 1-second sample rates (using turbostat), while under netperf test. - If you look at the first 4 histograms, you can see %c0 residency almost entirely in the 30,40% bin. - The last pair, which reverts 69a37bea, shows %c0 in the 80,90,100% bins. Below each kernel name are netperf TCP_RR trans/s numbers for the particular kernel that can be disclosed publicly, comparing the 3 test kernels. We ran a 4th test with the vanilla kernel where we've also set /dev/cpu_dma_latency=0 to show overall impact boosting single-threaded TCP_RR performance over 11% above baseline. 3.10-rc2 vanilla RX + c0 lock (/dev/cpu_dma_latency=0): TCP_RR trans/s 54323.78 ----------------------------------------------------------- 3.10-rc2 vanilla RX (no reverts) TCP_RR trans/s 48192.47 Receiver %c0 0.0000 - 10.0000 [ 1]: * 10.0000 - 20.0000 [ 0]: 20.0000 - 30.0000 [ 0]: 30.0000 - 40.0000 [ 59]: *********************************************************** 40.0000 - 50.0000 [ 1]: * 50.0000 - 60.0000 [ 0]: 60.0000 - 70.0000 [ 0]: 70.0000 - 80.0000 [ 0]: 80.0000 - 90.0000 [ 0]: 90.0000 - 100.0000 [ 0]: Sender %c0 0.0000 - 10.0000 [ 1]: * 10.0000 - 20.0000 [ 0]: 20.0000 - 30.0000 [ 0]: 30.0000 - 40.0000 [ 11]: *********** 40.0000 - 50.0000 [ 49]: ************************************************* 50.0000 - 60.0000 [ 0]: 60.0000 - 70.0000 [ 0]: 70.0000 - 80.0000 [ 0]: 80.0000 - 90.0000 [ 0]: 90.0000 - 100.0000 [ 0]: ----------------------------------------------------------- 3.10-rc2 perfteam2 RX (reverts commit e11538d1) TCP_RR trans/s 49698.69 Receiver %c0 0.0000 - 10.0000 [ 1]: * 10.0000 - 20.0000 [ 1]: * 20.0000 - 30.0000 [ 0]: 30.0000 - 40.0000 [ 59]: *********************************************************** 40.0000 - 50.0000 [ 0]: 50.0000 - 60.0000 [ 0]: 60.0000 - 70.0000 [ 0]: 70.0000 - 80.0000 [ 0]: 80.0000 - 90.0000 [ 0]: 90.0000 - 100.0000 [ 0]: Sender %c0 0.0000 - 10.0000 [ 1]: * 10.0000 - 20.0000 [ 0]: 20.0000 - 30.0000 [ 0]: 30.0000 - 40.0000 [ 2]: ** 40.0000 - 50.0000 [ 58]: ********************************************************** 50.0000 - 60.0000 [ 0]: 60.0000 - 70.0000 [ 0]: 70.0000 - 80.0000 [ 0]: 80.0000 - 90.0000 [ 0]: 90.0000 - 100.0000 [ 0]: ----------------------------------------------------------- 3.10-rc2 test RX (reverts 69a37bea and e11538d1) TCP_RR trans/s 47766.95 Receiver %c0 0.0000 - 10.0000 [ 1]: * 10.0000 - 20.0000 [ 1]: * 20.0000 - 30.0000 [ 0]: 30.0000 - 40.0000 [ 27]: *************************** 40.0000 - 50.0000 [ 2]: ** 50.0000 - 60.0000 [ 0]: 60.0000 - 70.0000 [ 2]: ** 70.0000 - 80.0000 [ 0]: 80.0000 - 90.0000 [ 0]: 90.0000 - 100.0000 [ 28]: **************************** Sender: 0.0000 - 10.0000 [ 1]: * 10.0000 - 20.0000 [ 0]: 20.0000 - 30.0000 [ 0]: 30.0000 - 40.0000 [ 11]: *********** 40.0000 - 50.0000 [ 0]: 50.0000 - 60.0000 [ 1]: * 60.0000 - 70.0000 [ 0]: 70.0000 - 80.0000 [ 3]: *** 80.0000 - 90.0000 [ 7]: ******* 90.0000 - 100.0000 [ 38]: ************************************** These results demonstrate gaining back the tendency of the CPU to stay in more responsive, performant C-states (and thus yield measurably better performance), by reverting commit 69a37bea.

Commit 18d62711 (firewire: prevent dropping of completed iso packet header data) was intended to be an obvious bug fix, but libdc1394 and FlyCap2 depend on the old behaviour by ignoring all returned information and thus not noticing that not all packets have been received yet. The result was that the video frame buffers would be saved before they contained the correct data. Reintroduce the old behaviour for old clients.

We attempted to address a regression introduced by commit a57f7f91 (ACPICA: Add Windows8/Server2012 string for _OSI method.) after which ACPI video backlight support doesn't work on a number of systems, because the relevant AML methods in the ACPI tables in their BIOSes become useless after the BIOS has been told that the OS is compatible with Windows 8. That problem is tracked by the bug entry at: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=51231 Commit 8c5bd7ad (ACPI / video / i915: No ACPI backlight if firmware expects Windows 8) introduced for this purpose essentially prevented the ACPI backlight support from being used if the BIOS had been told that the OS was compatible with Windows 8 and the i915 driver was loaded, in which case the backlight would always be handled by i915. Unfortunately, however, that turned out to cause problems with backlight to appear on multiple systems with symptoms indicating that i915 was unable to control the backlight on those systems as expected. For this reason, revert commit 8c5bd7ad, but leave the function acpi_video_backlight_quirks() introduced by it, because another commit on top of it uses that function.

The em_x270_mci_setpower() and em_x270_usb_hub_init() functions call regulator_enable(), which may return an error that must be checked. This changes the em_x270_usb_hub_init() function to bail out if it fails, and changes the pxamci_platform_data->setpower callback so that the a failed em_x270_mci_setpower call can be propagated by the pxamci driver into the mmc core.

When using more than one trigger consumer it can happen that multiple threads perform a read-modify-update cycle on 'use_count' concurrently. This can cause updates to be lost and use_count can get stuck at non-zero value, in which case the IIO core assumes that at least one thread is still running and will wait for it to finish before running any trigger handlers again. This effectively renders the trigger disabled and a reboot is necessary before it can be used again. To fix this make use_count an atomic variable. Also set it to the number of consumers before starting the first consumer, otherwise it might happen that use_count drops to 0 even though not all consumers have been run yet.

The ARM OABI and EABI disagree on the alignment of structures with small members, so module init tools may interpret the ssb device table incorrectly, as shown by this warning when building the b43 device driver in an OABI kernel: FATAL: drivers/net/wireless/b43/b43: sizeof(struct ssb_device_id)=6 is not a modulo of the size of section __mod_ssb_device_table=88. Forcing the default (EABI) alignment on the structure makes this problem go away. Since the ssb_device_id may have the same problem, better fix both structures.
