      inotify: inotify_destroy_mark_entry could get called twice · 528da3e9
      由 Eric Paris 提交于 
      inotify_destroy_mark_entry could get called twice for the same mark since it
is called directly in inotify_rm_watch and when the mark is being destroyed for
another reason.  As an example assume that the file being watched was just
deleted so inotify_destroy_mark_entry would get called from the path
fsnotify_inoderemove() -> fsnotify_destroy_marks_by_inode() ->
fsnotify_destroy_mark_entry() -> inotify_destroy_mark_entry().  If this
happened at the same time as userspace tried to remove a watch via
inotify_rm_watch we could attempt to remove the mark from the idr twice and
could thus double dec the ref cnt and potentially could be in a use after
free/double free situation.  The fix is to have inotify_rm_watch use the
generic recursive safe fsnotify_destroy_mark_by_entry() so we are sure the
inotify_destroy_mark_entry() function can only be called one.

This patch also renames the function to inotify_ingored_remove_idr() so it is
clear what is actually going on in the function.

Hopefully this fixes:

      ext4: avoid unnecessary spinlock in critical POSIX ACL path · 210ad6ae
      由 Theodore Ts'o 提交于 
      If a filesystem supports POSIX ACL's, the VFS layer expects the filesystem
to do POSIX ACL checks on any files not owned by the caller, and it does
this for every single pathname component that it looks up.

That obviously can be pretty expensive if the filesystem isn't careful
about it, especially with locking. That's doubly sad, since the common
case tends to be that there are no ACL's associated with the files in
question.

ext4 already caches the ACL data so that it doesn't have to look it up
over and over again, but it does so by taking the inode->i_lock spinlock
on every lookup. Which is a noticeable overhead even if it's a private
lock, especially on CPU's where the serialization is expensive (eg Intel
Netburst aka 'P4').

For the special case of not actually having any ACL's, all that locking is
unnecessary. Even if somebody else were to be changing the ACL's on
another CPU, we simply don't care - if we've seen a NULL ACL, we might as
well use it.

So just load the ACL speculatively without any locking, and if it was
NULL, just use it. If it's non-NULL (either because we had a cached
entry, or because the cache hasn't been filled in at all), it means that
we'll need to get the lock and re-load it properly.

(This commit was ported from a patch originally authored by Linus for
ext3.)

This is noticeable even on Nehalem, which does locking quite well (much
better than P4). From lmbench:

	Host                 OS  Mhz null null      open slct fork exec sh

	nehalem.l Linux 2.6.30- 3193 0.04 0.09 0.92 1.39 2.36 67.4 293. 1148

where you can see what appears to be a roughly 3% improvement in stat
and open/close latencies from just the removal of the locking overhead.

Of course, this only matters for files you don't own (the owner never
needs to do the ACL checks), but that's the common case for libraries,
header files, and executables. As well as for the base components of any
absolute pathname, even if you are the owner of the final file.

[ At some point we probably want to move this ACL caching logic entirely
  into the VFS layer (and only call down to the filesystem when
  uncached), but in the meantime this improves ext3 a bit.

  A similar fix to btrfs makes a much bigger difference (15x improvement
  in lmbench) due to broken caching. ]

      Authentication error abort codes should be translated to appropriate
Linux error codes, rather than all being translated to EREMOTEIO - which
indicates that the server had internal problems.

Additionally, a server shouldn't be marked unavailable and the next
server tried if an authentication error occurs.  This will quickly make
all the servers unavailable to the client.  Instead the error should be
returned straight to the user.

      remove put_cpu_no_resched() · 8b0b1db0
      由 Thomas Gleixner 提交于 
      put_cpu_no_resched() is an optimization of put_cpu() which unfortunately
can cause high latencies.

The nfs iostats code uses put_cpu_no_resched() in a code sequence where a
reschedule request caused by an interrupt between the get_cpu() and the
put_cpu_no_resched() can delay the reschedule for at least HZ.

The other users of put_cpu_no_resched() optimize correctly in interrupt
code, but there is no real harm in using the put_cpu() function which is
an alias for preempt_enable().  The extra check of the preemmpt count is
not as critical as the potential source of missing a reschedule.

Debugged in the preempt-rt tree and verified in mainline.

Impact: remove a high latency source

      poll: avoid extra wakeups in select/poll · 4938d7e0
      由 Eric Dumazet 提交于 
      After introduction of keyed wakeups Davide Libenzi did on epoll, we are
able to avoid spurious wakeups in poll()/select() code too.

For example, typical use of poll()/select() is to wait for incoming
network frames on many sockets.  But TX completion for UDP/TCP frames call
sock_wfree() which in turn schedules thread.

When scheduled, thread does a full scan of all polled fds and can sleep
again, because nothing is really available.  If number of fds is large,
this cause significant load.

This patch makes select()/poll() aware of keyed wakeups and useless
wakeups are avoided.  This reduces number of context switches by about 50%
on some setups, and work performed by sofirq handlers.

      writeback: skip new or to-be-freed inodes · 84a89245
      由 Wu Fengguang 提交于 
      1) I_FREEING tests should be coupled with I_CLEAR

The two I_FREEING tests are racy because clear_inode() can set i_state to
I_CLEAR between the clear of I_SYNC and the test of I_FREEING.

2) skip I_WILL_FREE inodes in generic_sync_sb_inodes() to avoid possible
   races with generic_forget_inode()

generic_forget_inode() sets I_WILL_FREE call writeback on its own, so
generic_sync_sb_inodes() shall not try to step in and create possible races:

  generic_forget_inode
    inode->i_state |= I_WILL_FREE;
    spin_unlock(&inode_lock);
                                       generic_sync_sb_inodes()
                                         spin_lock(&inode_lock);
                                         __iget(inode);
                                         __writeback_single_inode
                                           // see non zero i_count
 may WARN here ==>                         WARN_ON(inode->i_state & I_WILL_FREE);
                                         spin_unlock(&inode_lock);
 may call generic_forget_inode again ==> iput(inode);

The above race and warning didn't turn up because writeback_inodes() holds
the s_umount lock, so generic_forget_inode() finds MS_ACTIVE and returns
early.  But we are not sure the UBIFS calls and future callers will
guarantee that.  So skip I_WILL_FREE inodes for the sake of safety.

      oom: move oom_adj value from task_struct to mm_struct · 2ff05b2b
      由 David Rientjes 提交于 
      The per-task oom_adj value is a characteristic of its mm more than the
task itself since it's not possible to oom kill any thread that shares the
mm.  If a task were to be killed while attached to an mm that could not be
freed because another thread were set to OOM_DISABLE, it would have
needlessly been terminated since there is no potential for future memory
freeing.

This patch moves oomkilladj (now more appropriately named oom_adj) from
struct task_struct to struct mm_struct.  This requires task_lock() on a
task to check its oom_adj value to protect against exec, but it's already
necessary to take the lock when dereferencing the mm to find the total VM
size for the badness heuristic.

This fixes a livelock if the oom killer chooses a task and another thread
sharing the same memory has an oom_adj value of OOM_DISABLE.  This occurs
because oom_kill_task() repeatedly returns 1 and refuses to kill the
chosen task while select_bad_process() will repeatedly choose the same
task during the next retry.

Taking task_lock() in select_bad_process() to check for OOM_DISABLE and in
oom_kill_task() to check for threads sharing the same memory will be
removed in the next patch in this series where it will no longer be
necessary.

Writing to /proc/pid/oom_adj for a kthread will now return -EINVAL since
these threads are immune from oom killing already.  They simply report an
oom_adj value of OOM_DISABLE.
