      percpu: allow pcpu_alloc() to be called with IRQs off · 403a91b1
      Jiri Kosina 提交于
      pcpu_alloc() and pcpu_extend_area_map() perform a series of
      spin_lock_irq()/spin_unlock_irq() calls, which make them unsafe
      with respect to being called from contexts which have IRQs off.
      
      This patch converts the code to perform save/restore of flags instead,
      making pcpu_alloc() (or __alloc_percpu() respectively) to be called
      from early kernel startup stage, where IRQs are off.
      
      This is needed for proper initialization of per-cpu rq_weight data from
      sched_init().
      
      tj: added comment explaining why irqsave/restore is used in alloc path.

      memcg: reduce check for softlimit excess · ef8745c1
      KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki 提交于
      In charge/uncharge/reclaim path, usage_in_excess is calculated repeatedly
      and it takes res_counter's spin_lock every time.
      
      This patch removes unnecessary calls for res_count_soft_limit_excess.

      memcg: some modification to softlimit under hierarchical memory reclaim. · 4e649152
      KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki 提交于
      This patch clean up/fixes for memcg's uncharge soft limit path.
      
      Problems:
        Now, res_counter_charge()/uncharge() handles softlimit information at
        charge/uncharge and softlimit-check is done when event counter per memcg
        goes over limit. Now, event counter per memcg is updated only when
        memory usage is over soft limit. Here, considering hierarchical memcg
        management, ancesotors should be taken care of.
      
        Now, ancerstors(hierarchy) are handled in charge() but not in uncharge().
        This is not good.
      
        Prolems:
        1. memcg's event counter incremented only when softlimit hits. That's bad.
           It makes event counter hard to be reused for other purpose.
      
        2. At uncharge, only the lowest level rescounter is handled. This is bug.
           Because ancesotor's event counter is not incremented, children should
           take care of them.
      
        3. res_counter_uncharge()'s 3rd argument is NULL in most case.
           ops under res_counter->lock should be small. No "if" sentense is better.
      
      Fixes:
        * Removed soft_limit_xx poitner and checks in charge and uncharge.
          Do-check-only-when-necessary scheme works enough well without them.
      
        * make event-counter of memcg incremented at every charge/uncharge.
          (per-cpu area will be accessed soon anyway)
      
        * All ancestors are checked at soft-limit-check. This is necessary because
          ancesotor's event counter may never be modified. Then, they should be
          checked at the same time.

      memcg: fix refcnt going negative · 26251eaf
      KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki 提交于
      __mem_cgroup_largest_soft_limit_node() returns a mem_cgroup_per_zone "mz"
      with incremnted mz->mem->css's refcnt.  Then, the caller of this function
      has to call css_put(mz->mem->css).
      
      But, mz can be !NULL even if "not found" i.e.  without css_get().  By
      this, css->refcnt will go down to minus.
      
      This may cause various things...one of results will be
      initite-loop in css_tryget()  as this.

      swapfile: avoid NULL pointer dereference in swapon when s_bdev is NULL · 3bd0f0c7
      Suresh Jayaraman 提交于
      While testing Swap over NFS patchset, I noticed an oops that was triggered
      during swapon. Investigating further, the NULL pointer deference is due to the
      SSD device check/optimization in the swapon code that assumes s_bdev could never
      be NULL.
      
      inode->i_sb->s_bdev could be NULL in a few cases. For e.g. one such case is
      loopback NFS mount, there could be others as well. Fix this by ensuring s_bdev
      is not NULL before we try to deference s_bdev.

      still young and unchecked NULL percpu pointer usage can result in
      random memory corruption when combined with the pointer shifting in

      percpu: make pcpu_setup_first_chunk() failures more verbose · 635b75fc
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      The parameters to pcpu_setup_first_chunk() come from different sources
      depending on architecture and can be quite complex.  The function runs
      various sanity checks on the parameters and triggers BUG() if
      something isn't right.  However, this is very early during the boot
      and not reporting exactly what the problem is makes debugging even
      harder.
      
      Add PCPU_SETUP_BUG() macro which prints out enough information about
      the parameters.  As the macro still puts separate BUG() for each
      check, it won't lose any information even on the situations where only
      the program counter can be retrieved.
      
      While at it, also bump pcpu_dump_alloc_info() message to KERN_INFO so
      that it's visible on the console if boot fails to complete.

      percpu: make embedding first chunk allocator check vmalloc space size · 6ea529a2
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      Embedding first chunk allocator maintains the distances between units
      in the vmalloc area and thus needs vmalloc space to be larger than the
      maximum distances between units; otherwise, it wouldn't be able to
      create any dynamic chunks.  This patch makes the embedding first chunk
      allocator check vmalloc space size and if the maximum distance between
      units is larger than 75% of it, print warning and, if page mapping
      allocator is available, fail initialization so that the system falls
      back onto it.
      
      This should work around percpu allocation failure problems on certain
      sparc64 configurations where distances between NUMA nodes are larger
      than the vmalloc area and makes percpu allocator more robust for
      future configurations.
