      SLUB: Fix per-cpu merge conflict · 1154fab7
      由 Stephen Rothwell 提交于 
      The slab tree adds a percpu variable usage case (commit
9dfc6e68 "SLUB: Use this_cpu operations in
slub"), but the percpu tree removes the prefixing of percpu variables (commit
dd17c8f7 "percpu: remove per_cpu__ prefix"),
thus causing the following compilation error:

      MM: Pass a PTE pointer to update_mmu_cache() rather than the PTE itself · 4b3073e1
      由 Russell King 提交于 
      On VIVT ARM, when we have multiple shared mappings of the same file
in the same MM, we need to ensure that we have coherency across all
copies.  We do this via make_coherent() by making the pages
uncacheable.

This used to work fine, until we allowed highmem with highpte - we
now have a page table which is mapped as required, and is not available
for modification via update_mmu_cache().

Ralf Beache suggested getting rid of the PTE value passed to
update_mmu_cache():

  On MIPS update_mmu_cache() calls __update_tlb() which walks pagetables
  to construct a pointer to the pte again.  Passing a pte_t * is much
  more elegant.  Maybe we might even replace the pte argument with the
  pte_t?

Ben Herrenschmidt would also like the pte pointer for PowerPC:

  Passing the ptep in there is exactly what I want.  I want that
  -instead- of the PTE value, because I have issue on some ppc cases,
  for I$/D$ coherency, where set_pte_at() may decide to mask out the
  _PAGE_EXEC.

So, pass in the mapped page table pointer into update_mmu_cache(), and
remove the PTE value, updating all implementations and call sites to
suit.

Includes a fix from Stephen Rothwell:

      mm: flush dcache before writing into page to avoid alias · 931e80e4
      由 anfei zhou 提交于 
      The cache alias problem will happen if the changes of user shared mapping
is not flushed before copying, then user and kernel mapping may be mapped
into two different cache line, it is impossible to guarantee the coherence
after iov_iter_copy_from_user_atomic.  So the right steps should be:

	flush_dcache_page(page);
	kmap_atomic(page);
	write to page;
	kunmap_atomic(page);
	flush_dcache_page(page);

More precisely, we might create two new APIs flush_dcache_user_page and
flush_dcache_kern_page to replace the two flush_dcache_page accordingly.

Here is a snippet tested on omap2430 with VIPT cache, and I think it is
not ARM-specific:

	int val = 0x11111111;
	fd = open("abc", O_RDWR);
	addr = mmap(NULL, 4096, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_SHARED, fd, 0);
	*(addr+0) = 0x44444444;
	tmp = *(addr+0);
	*(addr+1) = 0x77777777;
	write(fd, &val, sizeof(int));
	close(fd);

The results are not always 0x11111111 0x77777777 at the beginning as expected.  Sometimes we see 0x44444444 0x77777777.

      mm: purge fragmented percpu vmap blocks · 02b709df
      由 Nick Piggin 提交于 
      Improve handling of fragmented per-CPU vmaps.  We previously don't free
up per-CPU maps until all its addresses have been used and freed.  So
fragmented blocks could fill up vmalloc space even if they actually had
no active vmap regions within them.

Add some logic to allow all CPUs to have these blocks purged in the case
of failure to allocate a new vm area, and also put some logic to trim
such blocks of a current CPU if we hit them in the allocation path (so
as to avoid a large build up of them).

Christoph reported some vmap allocation failures when using the per CPU
vmap APIs in XFS, which cannot be reproduced after this patch and the
previous bug fix.

      mm: percpu-vmap fix RCU list walking · de560423
      由 Nick Piggin 提交于 
      RCU list walking of the per-cpu vmap cache was broken.  It did not use
RCU primitives, and also the union of free_list and rcu_head is
obviously wrong (because free_list is indeed the list we are RCU
walking).

While we are there, remove a couple of unused fields from an earlier
iteration.

These APIs aren't actually used anywhere, because of problems with the
XFS conversion.  Christoph has now verified that the problems are solved
with these patches.  Also it is an exported interface, so I think it
will be good to be merged now (and Christoph wants to get the XFS
changes into their local tree).

      slab: fix regression in touched logic · 44b57f1c
      由 Nick Piggin 提交于 
      When factoring common code into transfer_objects in commit 3ded175a ("slab: add
transfer_objects() function"), the 'touched' logic got a bit broken. When
refilling from the shared array (taking objects from the shared array), we are
making use of the shared array so it should be marked as touched.

Subsequently pulling an element from the cpu array and allocating it should
also touch the cpu array, but that is taken care of after the alloc_done label.
(So yes, the cpu array was getting touched = 1 twice).

So revert this logic to how it worked in earlier kernels.

This also affects the behaviour in __drain_alien_cache, which would previously
'touch' the shared array and now does not. I think it is more logical not to
touch there, because we are pushing objects into the shared array rather than
pulling them off. So there is no good reason to postpone reaping them -- if the
shared array is getting utilized, then it will get 'touched' in the alloc path
(where this patch now restores the touch).

      mm: fix migratetype bug which slowed swapping · a7016235
      由 Hugh Dickins 提交于 
      After memory pressure has forced it to dip into the reserves, 2.6.32's
5f8dcc21 "page-allocator: split per-cpu
list into one-list-per-migrate-type" has been returning MIGRATE_RESERVE
pages to the MIGRATE_MOVABLE free_list: in some sense depleting reserves.

Fix that in the most straightforward way (which, considering the overheads
of alternative approaches, is Mel's preference): the right migratetype is
already in page_private(page), but free_pcppages_bulk() wasn't using it.

How did this bug show up?  As a 20% slowdown in my tmpfs loop kbuild
swapping tests, on PowerMac G5 with SLUB allocator.  Bisecting to that
commit was easy, but explaining the magnitude of the slowdown not easy.

The same effect appears, but much less markedly, with SLAB, and even
less markedly on other machines (the PowerMac divides into fewer zones
than x86, I think that may be a factor).  We guess that lumpy reclaim
of short-lived high-order pages is implicated in some way, and probably
this bug has been tickling a poor decision somewhere in page reclaim.

But instrumentation hasn't told me much, I've run out of time and
imagination to determine exactly what's going on, and shouldn't hold up
the fix any longer: it's valid, and might even fix other misbehaviours.
