This patch add EXPORT_SYMBOL(filemap_write_and_wait) and use it. See mm/filemap.c: And changes the filemap_write_and_wait() and filemap_write_and_wait_range(). Current filemap_write_and_wait() doesn't wait if filemap_fdatawrite() returns error. However, even if filemap_fdatawrite() returned an error, it may have submitted the partially data pages to the device. (e.g. in the case of -ENOSPC) <quotation> Andrew Morton writes, If filemap_fdatawrite() returns an error, this might be due to some I/O problem: dead disk, unplugged cable, etc. Given the generally crappy quality of the kernel's handling of such exceptions, there's a good chance that the filemap_fdatawait() will get stuck in D state forever. </quotation> So, this patch doesn't wait if filemap_fdatawrite() returns the -EIO. Trond, could you please review the nfs part? Especially I'm not sure, nfs must use the "filemap_fdatawrite(inode->i_mapping) == 0", or not.

This patch changes generic_cont_expand(), in order to share the code with fatfs. - Use vmtruncate() if ->prepare_write() returns a error. Even if ->prepare_write() returns an error, it may already have added some blocks. So, this truncates blocks outside of ->i_size by vmtruncate(). - Add generic_cont_expand_simple(). The generic_cont_expand_simple() assumes that ->prepare_write() can handle the block boundary. With this, we don't need to care the extra byte. And for expanding a file size by truncate(), fatfs uses the added generic_cont_expand_simple().

Some ARM platforms have the ability to program the interrupt controller to detect various interrupt edges and/or levels. For some platforms, this is critical to setup correctly, particularly those which the setting is dependent on the device. Currently, ARM drivers do (eg) the following: err = request_irq(irq, ...); set_irq_type(irq, IRQT_RISING); However, if the interrupt has previously been programmed to be level sensitive (for whatever reason) then this will cause an interrupt storm. Hence, if we combine set_irq_type() with request_irq(), we can then safely set the type prior to unmasking the interrupt. The unfortunate problem is that in order to support this, these flags need to be visible outside of the ARM architecture - drivers such as smc91x need these flags and they're cross-architecture. Finally, the SA_TRIGGER_* flag passed to request_irq() should reflect the property that the device would like. The IRQ controller code should do its best to select the most appropriate supported mode.

For systems that aren't using cpusets, but have them CONFIG_CPUSET enabled in their kernel (eventually this may be most distribution kernels), this patch removes even the minimal rcu_read_lock() from the memory page allocation path. Actually, it removes that rcu call for any task that is in the root cpuset (top_cpuset), which on systems not actively using cpusets, is all tasks. We don't need the rcu check for tasks in the top_cpuset, because the top_cpuset is statically allocated, so at no risk of being freed out from underneath us.

Mark cpuset global 'number_of_cpusets' as __read_mostly. This global is accessed everytime a zone is considered in the zonelist loops beneath __alloc_pages, looking for a free memory page. If number_of_cpusets is just one, then we can short circuit the mems_allowed check. Since this global is read alot on a hot path, and written rarely, it is an excellent candidate for __read_mostly.

Optimize the cpuset impact on page allocation, the most performance critical cpuset hook in the kernel. On each page allocation, the cpuset hook needs to check for a possible change in the current tasks cpuset. It can now handle the common case, of no change, without taking any spinlock or semaphore, thanks to RCU. Convert a spinlock on the current task to an rcu_read_lock(), saving approximately a memory barrier and an atomic op, depending on architecture. This is done by adding rcu_assign_pointer() and synchronize_rcu() calls to the write side of the task->cpuset pointer, in cpuset.c:attach_task(), to delay freeing up a detached cpuset until after any critical sections referencing that pointer.

Remove a couple of more lines of code from the cpuset hooks in the page allocation code path. There was a check for a NULL cpuset pointer in the routine cpuset_update_task_memory_state() that was only needed during system boot, after the memory subsystem was initialized, before the cpuset subsystem was initialized, to catch a NULL task->cpuset pointer. Add a cpuset_init_early() routine, just before the mem_init() call in init/main.c, that sets up just enough of the init tasks cpuset structure to render cpuset_update_task_memory_state() calls harmless.

Given the mechanism in the previous patch to handle rebinding the per-vma mempolicies of all tasks in a cpuset that changes its memory placement, it is now easier to handle the page migration requirements of such tasks at the same time. The previous code didn't actually attempt to migrate the pages of the tasks in a cpuset whose memory placement changed until the next time each such task tried to allocate memory. This was undesirable, as users invoking memory page migration exected to happen when the placement changed, not some unspecified time later when the task needed more memory. It is now trivial to handle the page migration at the same time as the per-vma rebinding is done. The routine cpuset.c:update_nodemask(), which handles changing a cpusets memory placement ('mems') now checks for the special case of being asked to write a placement that is the same as before. It was harmless enough before to just recompute everything again, even though nothing had changed. But page migration is a heavy weight operation - moving pages about. So now it is worth avoiding that if asked to move a cpuset to its current location.

Fix more of longstanding bug in cpuset/mempolicy interaction. NUMA mempolicies (mm/mempolicy.c) are constrained by the current tasks cpuset to just the Memory Nodes allowed by that cpuset. The kernel maintains internal state for each mempolicy, tracking what nodes are used for the MPOL_INTERLEAVE, MPOL_BIND or MPOL_PREFERRED policies. When a tasks cpuset memory placement changes, whether because the cpuset changed, or because the task was attached to a different cpuset, then the tasks mempolicies have to be rebound to the new cpuset placement, so as to preserve the cpuset-relative numbering of the nodes in that policy. An earlier fix handled such mempolicy rebinding for mempolicies attached to a task. This fix rebinds mempolicies attached to vma's (address ranges in a tasks address space.) Due to the need to hold the task->mm->mmap_sem semaphore while updating vma's, the rebinding of vma mempolicies has to be done when the cpuset memory placement is changed, at which time mmap_sem can be safely acquired. The tasks mempolicy is rebound later, when the task next attempts to allocate memory and notices that its task->cpuset_mems_generation is out-of-date with its cpusets mems_generation. Because walking the tasklist to find all tasks attached to a changing cpuset requires holding tasklist_lock, a spinlock, one cannot update the vma's of the affected tasks while doing the tasklist scan. In general, one cannot acquire a semaphore (which can sleep) while already holding a spinlock (such as tasklist_lock). So a list of mm references has to be built up during the tasklist scan, then the tasklist lock dropped, then for each mm, its mmap_sem acquired, and the vma's in that mm rebound. Once the tasklist lock is dropped, affected tasks may fork new tasks, before their mm's are rebound. A kernel global 'cpuset_being_rebound' is set to point to the cpuset being rebound (there can only be one; cpuset modifications are done under a global 'manage_sem' semaphore), and the mpol_copy code that is used to copy a tasks mempolicies during fork catches such forking tasks, and ensures their children are also rebound. When a task is moved to a different cpuset, it is easier, as there is only one task involved. It's mm->vma's are scanned, using the same mpol_rebind_policy() as used above. It may happen that both the mpol_copy hook and the update done via the tasklist scan update the same mm twice. This is ok, as the mempolicies of each vma in an mm keep track of what mems_allowed they are relative to, and safely no-op a second request to rebind to the same nodes.

Easy little optimization hack to avoid actually having to call cpuset_zone_allowed() and check mems_allowed, in the main page allocation routine, __alloc_pages(). This saves several CPU cycles per page allocation on systems not using cpusets. A counter is updated each time a cpuset is created or removed, and whenever there is only one cpuset in the system, it must be the root cpuset, which contains all CPUs and all Memory Nodes. In that case, when the counter is one, all allocations are allowed.

Cleanup, reorganize and make more robust the mempolicy.c code to rebind mempolicies relative to the containing cpuset after a tasks memory placement changes. The real motivator for this cleanup patch is to lay more groundwork for the upcoming patch to correctly rebind NUMA mempolicies that are attached to vma's after the containing cpuset memory placement changes. NUMA mempolicies are constrained by the cpuset their task is a member of. When either (1) a task is moved to a different cpuset, or (2) the 'mems' mems_allowed of a cpuset is changed, then the NUMA mempolicies have embedded node numbers (for MPOL_BIND, MPOL_INTERLEAVE and MPOL_PREFERRED) that need to be recalculated, relative to their new cpuset placement. The old code used an unreliable method of determining what was the old mems_allowed constraining the mempolicy. It just looked at the tasks mems_allowed value. This sort of worked with the present code, that just rebinds the -task- mempolicy, and leaves any -vma- mempolicies broken, referring to the old nodes. But in an upcoming patch, the vma mempolicies will be rebound as well. Then the order in which the various task and vma mempolicies are updated will no longer be deterministic, and one can no longer count on the task->mems_allowed holding the old value for as long as needed. It's not even clear if the current code was guaranteed to work reliably for task mempolicies. So I added a mems_allowed field to each mempolicy, stating exactly what mems_allowed the policy is relative to, and updated synchronously and reliably anytime that the mempolicy is rebound. Also removed a useless wrapper routine, numa_policy_rebind(), and had its caller, cpuset_update_task_memory_state(), call directly to the rewritten policy_rebind() routine, and made that rebind routine extern instead of static, and added a "mpol_" prefix to its name, making it mpol_rebind_policy().

The important code paths through alloc_pages_current() and alloc_page_vma(), by which most kernel page allocations go, both called cpuset_update_current_mems_allowed(), which in turn called refresh_mems(). -Both- of these latter two routines did a tasklock, got the tasks cpuset pointer, and checked for out of date cpuset->mems_generation. That was a silly duplication of code and waste of CPU cycles on an important code path. Consolidated those two routines into a single routine, called cpuset_update_task_memory_state(), since it updates more than just mems_allowed.

Fix obscure, never seen in real life, cpuset fork race. The cpuset_fork() call in fork.c was setting up the correct task->cpuset pointer after the tasklist_lock was dropped, which briefly exposed the newly forked process with an unsafe (copied from parent without locks or usage counter increment) cpuset pointer. In theory, that exposed cpuset pointer could have been pointing at a cpuset that was already freed and removed, and in theory another task that had been sitting on the tasklist_lock waiting to scan the task list could have raced down the entire tasklist, found our new child at the far end, and dereferenced that bogus cpuset pointer. To fix, setup up the correct cpuset pointer in the new child by calling cpuset_fork() before the new task is linked into the tasklist, and with that, add a fork failure case, to dereference that cpuset, if the fork fails along the way, after cpuset_fork() was called. Had to remove a BUG_ON() from cpuset_exit(), because it was no longer valid - the call to cpuset_exit() from a failed fork would not have PF_EXITING set.

Provide a simple per-cpuset metric of memory pressure, tracking the -rate- that the tasks in a cpuset call try_to_free_pages(), the synchronous (direct) memory reclaim code. This enables batch managers monitoring jobs running in dedicated cpusets to efficiently detect what level of memory pressure that job is causing. This is useful both on tightly managed systems running a wide mix of submitted jobs, which may choose to terminate or reprioritize jobs that are trying to use more memory than allowed on the nodes assigned them, and with tightly coupled, long running, massively parallel scientific computing jobs that will dramatically fail to meet required performance goals if they start to use more memory than allowed to them. This patch just provides a very economical way for the batch manager to monitor a cpuset for signs of memory pressure. It's up to the batch manager or other user code to decide what to do about it and take action. ==> Unless this feature is enabled by writing "1" to the special file /dev/cpuset/memory_pressure_enabled, the hook in the rebalance code of __alloc_pages() for this metric reduces to simply noticing that the cpuset_memory_pressure_enabled flag is zero. So only systems that enable this feature will compute the metric. Why a per-cpuset, running average: Because this meter is per-cpuset, rather than per-task or mm, the system load imposed by a batch scheduler monitoring this metric is sharply reduced on large systems, because a scan of the tasklist can be avoided on each set of queries. Because this meter is a running average, instead of an accumulating counter, a batch scheduler can detect memory pressure with a single read, instead of having to read and accumulate results for a period of time. Because this meter is per-cpuset rather than per-task or mm, the batch scheduler can obtain the key information, memory pressure in a cpuset, with a single read, rather than having to query and accumulate results over all the (dynamically changing) set of tasks in the cpuset. A per-cpuset simple digital filter (requires a spinlock and 3 words of data per-cpuset) is kept, and updated by any task attached to that cpuset, if it enters the synchronous (direct) page reclaim code. A per-cpuset file provides an integer number representing the recent (half-life of 10 seconds) rate of direct page reclaims caused by the tasks in the cpuset, in units of reclaims attempted per second, times 1000.

Fix the default behaviour for the remap operators in bitmap, cpumask and nodemask. As previously submitted, the pair of masks <A, B> defined a map of the positions of the set bits in A to the corresponding bits in B. This is still true. The issue is how to map the other positions, corresponding to the unset (0) bits in A. As previously submitted, they were all mapped to the first set bit position in B, a constant map. When I tried to code per-vma mempolicy rebinding using these remap operators, I realized this was wrong. This patch changes the default to map all the unset bit positions in A to the same positions in B, the identity map. For example, if A has bits 4-7 set, and B has bits 9-12 set, then the map defined by the pair <A, B> maps each bit position in the first 32 bits as follows: 0 ==> 0 ... 3 ==> 3 4 ==> 9 ... 7 ==> 12 8 ==> 8 9 ==> 9 ... 31 ==> 31 This now corresponds to the typical behaviour desired when migrating pages and policies from one cpuset to another. The pages on nodes within the original cpuset, and the references in memory policies to nodes within the original cpuset, are migrated to the corresponding cpuset-relative nodes in the destination cpuset. Other pages and node references are left untouched. Signed-off-by: NPaul Jackson <pj@sgi.com> Signed-off-by: NAndrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

configurable replacement for slab allocator This adds a CONFIG_SLAB option under CONFIG_EMBEDDED. When CONFIG_SLAB is disabled, the kernel falls back to using the 'SLOB' allocator. SLOB is a traditional K&R/UNIX allocator with a SLAB emulation layer, similar to the original Linux kmalloc allocator that SLAB replaced. It's signicantly smaller code and is more memory efficient. But like all similar allocators, it scales poorly and suffers from fragmentation more than SLAB, so it's only appropriate for small systems. It's been tested extensively in the Linux-tiny tree. I've also stress-tested it with make -j 8 compiles on a 3G SMP+PREEMPT box (not recommended). Here's a comparison for otherwise identical builds, showing SLOB saving nearly half a megabyte of RAM: $ size vmlinux* text data bss dec hex filename 3336372 529360 190812 4056544 3de5e0 vmlinux-slab 3323208 527948 190684 4041840 3dac70 vmlinux-slob $ size mm/{slab,slob}.o text data bss dec hex filename 13221 752 48 14021 36c5 mm/slab.o 1896 52 8 1956 7a4 mm/slob.o /proc/meminfo: SLAB SLOB delta MemTotal: 27964 kB 27980 kB +16 kB MemFree: 24596 kB 25092 kB +496 kB Buffers: 36 kB 36 kB 0 kB Cached: 1188 kB 1188 kB 0 kB SwapCached: 0 kB 0 kB 0 kB Active: 608 kB 600 kB -8 kB Inactive: 808 kB 812 kB +4 kB HighTotal: 0 kB 0 kB 0 kB HighFree: 0 kB 0 kB 0 kB LowTotal: 27964 kB 27980 kB +16 kB LowFree: 24596 kB 25092 kB +496 kB SwapTotal: 0 kB 0 kB 0 kB SwapFree: 0 kB 0 kB 0 kB Dirty: 4 kB 12 kB +8 kB Writeback: 0 kB 0 kB 0 kB Mapped: 560 kB 556 kB -4 kB Slab: 1756 kB 0 kB -1756 kB CommitLimit: 13980 kB 13988 kB +8 kB Committed_AS: 4208 kB 4208 kB 0 kB PageTables: 28 kB 28 kB 0 kB VmallocTotal: 1007312 kB 1007312 kB 0 kB VmallocUsed: 48 kB 48 kB 0 kB VmallocChunk: 1007264 kB 1007264 kB 0 kB (this work has been sponsored in part by CELF) From: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Fix 32-bitness bugs in mm/slob.c.

Shrink the height of a radix tree when it is partially truncated - we only do shrinkage of full truncation at present. Signed-off-by: NNick Piggin <npiggin@suse.de> Signed-off-by: NAndrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

Correctly determine the tags to be cleared in radix_tree_delete() so we don't keep moving up the tree clearing tags that we don't need to. For example, if a tag is simply not set in the deleted item, nor anywhere up the tree, radix_tree_delete() would attempt to clear it up the entire height of the tree. Also, tag_set() was made conditional so as not to dirty too many cachelines high up in the radix tree. Instead, put this logic into radix_tree_tag_set().

Some simplification in checking signal delivery against concurrent exit. Instead of using get_task_struct_rcu(), which increments the task_struct reference count, check the reference count after acquiring sighand lock. Signed-off-by: N"Paul E.

RCU tasklist_lock and RCU signal handling: send signals RCU-read-locked instead of tasklist_lock read-locked. This is a scalability improvement on SMP and a preemption-latency improvement under PREEMPT_RCU. Signed-off-by: NPaul E.
