      [PATCH] Disable CPU hotplug during suspend · e3920fb4
      由 Rafael J. Wysocki 提交于 
      The current suspend code has to be run on one CPU, so we use the CPU
hotplug to take the non-boot CPUs offline on SMP machines.  However, we
should also make sure that these CPUs will not be enabled by someone else
after we have disabled them.

The functions disable_nonboot_cpus() and enable_nonboot_cpus() are moved to
kernel/cpu.c, because they now refer to some stuff in there that should
better be static.  Also it's better if disable_nonboot_cpus() returns an
error instead of panicking if something goes wrong, and
enable_nonboot_cpus() has no reason to panic(), because the CPUs may have
been enabled by the userland before it tries to take them online.

      [PATCH] swsusp: read speedup · 546e0d27
      由 Andrew Morton 提交于 
      Implement async reads for swsusp resuming.

Crufty old PIII testbox:
	15.7 MB/s -> 20.3 MB/s

Sony Vaio:
	14.6 MB/s -> 33.3 MB/s

I didn't implement the post-resume bio_set_pages_dirty().  I don't really
understand why resume needs to run set_page_dirty() against these pages.

It might be a worry that this code modifies PG_Uptodate, PG_Error and
PG_Locked against the image pages.  Can this possibly affect the resumed-into
kernel?  Hopefully not, if we're atomically restoring its mem_map?

The implementation is crude.  A better one would use larger BIOs, but wouldn't
gain any performance.

The memcpys will be mostly pipelined with the IO and basically come for free.

The ENOMEM path has not been tested.  It should be.

      [PATCH] zone_reclaim: dynamic slab reclaim · 0ff38490
      由 Christoph Lameter 提交于 
      Currently one can enable slab reclaim by setting an explicit option in
/proc/sys/vm/zone_reclaim_mode.  Slab reclaim is then used as a final
option if the freeing of unmapped file backed pages is not enough to free
enough pages to allow a local allocation.

However, that means that the slab can grow excessively and that most memory
of a node may be used by slabs.  We have had a case where a machine with
46GB of memory was using 40-42GB for slab.  Zone reclaim was effective in
dealing with pagecache pages.  However, slab reclaim was only done during
global reclaim (which is a bit rare on NUMA systems).

This patch implements slab reclaim during zone reclaim.  Zone reclaim
occurs if there is a danger of an off node allocation.  At that point we

1. Shrink the per node page cache if the number of pagecache
   pages is more than min_unmapped_ratio percent of pages in a zone.

2. Shrink the slab cache if the number of the nodes reclaimable slab pages
   (patch depends on earlier one that implements that counter)
   are more than min_slab_ratio (a new /proc/sys/vm tunable).

The shrinking of the slab cache is a bit problematic since it is not node
specific.  So we simply calculate what point in the slab we want to reach
(current per node slab use minus the number of pages that neeed to be
allocated) and then repeately run the global reclaim until that is
unsuccessful or we have reached the limit.  I hope we will have zone based
slab reclaim at some point which will make that easier.

The default for the min_slab_ratio is 5%

Also remove the slab option from /proc/sys/vm/zone_reclaim_mode.

      [PATCH] Fix longstanding load balancing bug in the scheduler · 0a2966b4
      由 Christoph Lameter 提交于 
      The scheduler will stop load balancing if the most busy processor contains
processes pinned via processor affinity.

The scheduler currently only does one search for busiest cpu.  If it cannot
pull any tasks away from the busiest cpu because they were pinned then the
scheduler goes into a corner and sulks leaving the idle processors idle.

F.e.  If you have processor 0 busy running four tasks pinned via taskset,
there are none on processor 1 and one just started two processes on
processor 2 then the scheduler will not move one of the two processes away
from processor 2.

This patch fixes that issue by forcing the scheduler to come out of its
corner and retrying the load balancing by considering other processors for
load balancing.

This patch was originally developed by John Hawkes and discussed at

    http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=113901368523205&w=2.

I have removed extraneous material and gone back to equipping struct rq
with the cpu the queue is associated with since this makes the patch much
easier and it is likely that others in the future will have the same
difficulty of figuring out which processor owns which runqueue.

The overhead added through these patches is a single word on the stack if
the kernel is configured to support 32 cpus or less (32 bit).  For 32 bit
environments the maximum number of cpus that can be configued is 255 which
would result in the use of 32 bytes additional on the stack.  On IA64 up to
1k cpus can be configured which will result in the use of 128 additional
bytes on the stack.  The maximum additional cache footprint is one
cacheline.  Typically memory use will be much less than a cacheline and the
additional cpumask will be placed on the stack in a cacheline that already
contains other local variable.

      [PATCH] load_module: no BUG if module_subsys uninitialized · 1cc5f714
      由 Ed Swierk 提交于 
      Invoking load_module() before param_sysfs_init() is called crashes in
mod_sysfs_setup(), since the kset in module_subsys is not initialized yet.

In my case, net-pf-1 is getting modprobed as a result of hotplug trying to
create a UNIX socket.  Calls to hotplug begin after the topology_init
initcall.

Another patch for the same symptom (module_subsys-initialize-earlier.patch)
moves param_sysfs_init() to the subsys initcalls, but this is still not
early enough in the boot process in some cases.  In particular,
topology_init() causes /sbin/hotplug to run, which requests net-pf-1 (the
UNIX socket protocol) which can be compiled as a module.  Moving
param_sysfs_init() to the postcore initcalls fixes this particular race,
but there might well be other cases where a usermodehelper causes a module
to load earlier still.

The patch makes load_module() return an error rather than crashing the
kernel if invoked before module_subsys is initialized.

      [PATCH] genirq core: fix handle_level_irq() · 86998aa6
      由 Ingo Molnar 提交于 
      while porting the -rt tree to 2.6.18-rc7 i noticed the following
screaming-IRQ scenario on an SMP system:

 2274  0Dn.:1 0.001ms: do_IRQ+0xc/0x103  <= (ret_from_intr+0x0/0xf)
 2274  0Dn.:1 0.010ms: do_IRQ+0xc/0x103  <= (ret_from_intr+0x0/0xf)

 2274  0Dn.:1 0.039ms: do_IRQ+0xc/0x103  <= (ret_from_intr+0x0/0xf)
 2274  0Dn.:1 0.048ms: do_IRQ+0xc/0x103  <= (ret_from_intr+0x0/0xf)
 2274  0Dn.:1 0.058ms: do_IRQ+0xc/0x103  <= (ret_from_intr+0x0/0xf)
 2274  0Dn.:1 0.068ms: do_IRQ+0xc/0x103  <= (ret_from_intr+0x0/0xf)
 2274  0Dn.:1 0.077ms: do_IRQ+0xc/0x103  <= (ret_from_intr+0x0/0xf)
 2274  0Dn.:1 0.087ms: do_IRQ+0xc/0x103  <= (ret_from_intr+0x0/0xf)
 2274  0Dn.:1 0.097ms: do_IRQ+0xc/0x103  <= (ret_from_intr+0x0/0xf)

as it turns out, the bug is caused by handle_level_irq(), which if it
races with another CPU already handling this IRQ, it _unmasks_ the IRQ
line on the way out. This is not how 2.6.17 works, and we introduced
this bug in one of the early genirq cleanups right before it went into
-mm. (the bug was not in the genirq patchset for a long time, and we
didnt notice the bug due to the lack of -rt rebase to the new genirq
code. -rt, and hardirq-preemption in particular opens up such races much
wider than anything else.)

      [PATCH] Use the correct restart option for futex_lock_pi · c5780e97
      由 Thomas Gleixner 提交于 
      The current implementation of futex_lock_pi returns -ERESTART_RESTARTBLOCK
in case that the lock operation has been interrupted by a signal.  This
results in a return of -EINTR to userspace in case there is an handler for
the signal.  This is wrong, because userspace expects that the lock
function does not return in any case of signal delivery.

This was not caught by my insufficient test case, but triggered a nasty
userspace problem in an high load application scenario.  Unfortunately also
glibc does not check for this invalid return value.

Using -ERSTARTNOINTR makes sure, that the interrupted syscall is restarted.
 The restart block related code can be safely removed, as the possible
timeout argument is an absolute time value.

      [PATCH] futex_handle_fault always fails · e579dcbf
      由 john stultz 提交于 
      We found this issue last week w/ the -RT kernel, but it seems the same
issue is in mainline as well.

Basically it is possible for futex_unlock_pi to return without actually
freeing the lock.  This is due to buggy logic in the use of
futex_handle_fault() and its attempt argument in a failure case.

Looking at futex.c the logic is as follows:

1) In futex_unlock_pi() we start w/ ret=0 and we go down to the first
   futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic(), where we find uval==-EFAULT.  We then
   jump to the pi_faulted label.

2) From pi_faulted: We increment attempt, unlock the sem and hit the
   retry label.

3) From the retry label, with ret still zero, we again hit EFAULT on the
   first futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic(), and again goto the pi_faulted
   label.

4) Again from pi_faulted: we increment attempt and enter the
   conditional, where we call futex_handle_fault.

5) futex_handle_fault fails, and we goto the out_unlock_release_sem
   label.

6) From out_unlock_release_sem we return, and since ret is still zero,
   we return without error, while never actually unlocking the lock.

Issue #1: at the first futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic() we should probably
be setting ret=-EFAULT before jumping to pi_faulted: However in our case
this doesn't really affect anything, as the glibc we're using ignores the
error value from futex_unlock_pi().

Issue #2: Look at futex_handle_fault(), its first conditional will return
-EFAULT if attempt is >= 2.  However, from the "if(attempt++)
futex_handle_fault(attempt)" logic above, we'll *never* call
futex_handle_fault when attempt is less then two.  So we never get a chance
to even try to fault the page in.

The following patch addresses these two issues by 1) Always setting ret to
-EFAULT if futex_handle_fault fails, and 2) Removing the = in
futex_handle_fault's (attempt >= 2) check.

I'm really not sure this is the right fix, but wanted to bring it up so
folks knew the issue is alive and well in the current -git tree.  From
looking at the git logs the logic was first introduced (then later copied
to other places) in the following commit almost a year ago:
