2013-04-30powerpc: Fix build failure after merge of the cgroup treeStephen Rothwell
After merging the cgroup tree, today's linux-next build (powerpc ppc64_defconfig) failed like this: arch/powerpc/mm/numa.c: In function 'arch_update_cpu_topology': arch/powerpc/mm/numa.c:1465:2: error: implicit declaration of function 'kzalloc' [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration] arch/powerpc/mm/numa.c:1465:10: error: assignment makes pointer from integer without a cast [-Werror] arch/powerpc/mm/numa.c:1497:2: error: implicit declaration of function 'kfree' [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration] Caused by commit 30c05350c39d ("powerpc/pseries: Use stop machine to update cpu maps") from the powerpc tree interacting with (probably) commit ff794dea52ea ("cpuset: remove include of cgroup.h from cpuset.h") from the cgroup tree. Removing includes from header files is fraught with danger ... The former should have added an include of linux/slab.h to arch/powerpc/mm/numa.c. I have added the following merge fix patch for today (but it should be applied to the powerpc tree ASAP).

2013-04-29Merge branch 'for-3.10' of ↵Linus Torvalds
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/cgroup Pull cgroup updates from Tejun Heo: - Fixes and a lot of cleanups. Locking cleanup is finally complete. cgroup_mutex is no longer exposed to individual controlelrs which used to cause nasty deadlock issues. Li fixed and cleaned up quite a bit including long standing ones like racy cgroup_path(). - device cgroup now supports proper hierarchy thanks to Aristeu. - perf_event cgroup now supports proper hierarchy. - A new mount option "__DEVEL__sane_behavior" is added. As indicated by the name, this option is to be used for development only at this point and generates a warning message when used. Unfortunately, cgroup interface currently has too many brekages and inconsistencies to implement a consistent and unified hierarchy on top. The new flag is used to collect the behavior changes which are necessary to implement consistent unified hierarchy. It's likely that this flag won't be used verbatim when it becomes ready but will be enabled implicitly along with unified hierarchy. The option currently disables some of broken behaviors in cgroup core and also .use_hierarchy switch in memcg (will be routed through -mm), which can be used to make very unusual hierarchy where nesting is partially honored. It will also be used to implement hierarchy support for blk-throttle which would be impossible otherwise without introducing a full separate set of control knobs. This is essentially versioning of interface which isn't very nice but at this point I can't see any other options which would allow keeping the interface the same while moving towards hierarchy behavior which is at least somewhat sane. The planned unified hierarchy is likely to require some level of adaptation from userland anyway, so I think it'd be best to take the chance and update the interface such that it's supportable in the long term. Maintaining the existing interface does complicate cgroup core but shouldn't put too much strain on individual controllers and I think it'd be manageable for the foreseeable future. Maybe we'll be able to drop it in a decade. Fix up conflicts (including a semantic one adding a new #include to ppc that was uncovered by header the file changes) as per Tejun. * 'for-3.10' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/cgroup: (45 commits) cpuset: fix compile warning when CONFIG_SMP=n cpuset: fix cpu hotplug vs rebuild_sched_domains() race cpuset: use rebuild_sched_domains() in cpuset_hotplug_workfn() cgroup: restore the call to eventfd->poll() cgroup: fix use-after-free when umounting cgroupfs cgroup: fix broken file xattrs devcg: remove parent_cgroup. memcg: force use_hierarchy if sane_behavior cgroup: remove cgrp->top_cgroup cgroup: introduce sane_behavior mount option move cgroupfs_root to include/linux/cgroup.h cgroup: convert cgroupfs_root flag bits to masks and add CGRP_ prefix cgroup: make cgroup_path() not print double slashes Revert "cgroup: remove bind() method from cgroup_subsys." perf: make perf_event cgroup hierarchical cgroup: implement cgroup_is_descendant() cgroup: make sure parent won't be destroyed before its children cgroup: remove bind() method from cgroup_subsys. devcg: remove broken_hierarchy tag cgroup: remove cgroup_lock_is_held() ...

2013-04-30mm: remove free_area_cache use in powerpc architectureMichel Lespinasse
As all other architectures have been converted to use vm_unmapped_area(), we are about to retire the free_area_cache. This change simply removes the use of that cache in slice_get_unmapped_area(), which will most certainly have a performance cost. Next one will convert that function to use the vm_unmapped_area() infrastructure and regain the performance.

2013-04-29sparse-vmemmap: specify vmemmap population range in bytesJohannes Weiner
The sparse code, when asking the architecture to populate the vmemmap, specifies the section range as a starting page and a number of pages. This is an awkward interface, because none of the arch-specific code actually thinks of the range in terms of 'struct page' units and always translates it to bytes first. In addition, later patches mix huge page and regular page backing for the vmemmap. For this, they need to call vmemmap_populate_basepages() on sub-section ranges with PAGE_SIZE and PMD_SIZE in mind. But these are not necessarily multiples of the 'struct page' size and so this unit is too coarse. Just translate the section range into bytes once in the generic sparse code, then pass byte ranges down the stack.

2013-04-26powerpc/pseries: Add /proc interface to control topology updatesNathan Fontenot
There are instances in which we do not want topology updates to occur. In order to allow this a /proc interface (/proc/powerpc/topology_updates) is introduced so that topology updates can be enabled and disabled. This patch also adds a prrn_is_enabled() call so that PRRN events are handled in the kernel only if topology updating is enabled.

2013-04-26powerpc/pseries: RE-enable Virtual Processor Home Node updatingJesse Larrew
The new PRRN firmware feature provides a more convenient and event-driven interface than VPHN for notifying Linux of changes to the NUMA affinity of platform resources. However, for practical reasons, it may not be feasible for some customers to update to the latest firmware. For these customers, the VPHN feature supported on previous firmware versions may still be the best option. The VPHN feature was previously disabled due to races with the load balancing code when accessing the NUMA cpu maps, but the new stop_machine() approach protects the NUMA cpu maps from these concurrent accesses. It should be safe to re-enable this feature now. Signed-off-by: Nathan Fontenot <nfont@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

2013-04-26powerpc/pseries: Use stop machine to update cpu mapsNathan Fontenot
The new PRRN firmware feature allows CPU and memory resources to be transparently reassigned across NUMA boundaries. When this happens, the kernel must update the node maps to reflect the new affinity information. Although the NUMA maps can be protected by locking primitives during the update itself, this is insufficient to prevent concurrent accesses to these structures. Since cpumask_of_node() hands out a pointer to these structures, they can still be modified outside of the lock. Furthermore, tracking down each usage of these pointers and adding locks would be quite invasive and difficult to maintain. The approach used is to make a list of affected cpus and call stop_machine to have the update routine run on each of the affected cpus allowing them to update themselves. Each cpu finds itself in the list of cpus and makes the appropriate updates. We need to have each cpu do this for themselves to handle calls to vdso_getcpu_init() added in a subsequent patch. Situations like these are best handled using stop_machine(). Since the NUMA affinity updates are exceptionally rare events, this approach has the benefit of not adding any overhead while accessing the NUMA maps during normal operation.

2013-04-26powerpc/pseries: Update CPU maps when device tree is updatedJesse Larrew
Platform events such as partition migration or the new PRRN firmware feature can cause the NUMA characteristics of a CPU to change, and these changes will be reflected in the device tree nodes for the affected CPUs. This patch registers a handler for Open Firmware device tree updates and reconfigures the CPU and node maps whenever the associativity changes. Currently, this is accomplished by marking the affected CPUs in the cpu_associativity_changes_mask and allowing arch_update_cpu_topology() to retrieve the new associativity information using hcall_vphn(). Protecting the NUMA cpu maps from concurrent access during an update operation will be addressed in a subsequent patch in this series.

2013-02-23memory-hotplug: remove memmap of sparse-vmemmapTang Chen
Introduce a new API vmemmap_free() to free and remove vmemmap pagetables. Since pagetable implements are different, each architecture has to provide its own version of vmemmap_free(), just like vmemmap_populate(). Note: vmemmap_free() is not implemented for ia64, ppc, s390, and sparc.

2013-02-23memory-hotplug: implement register_page_bootmem_info_section of sparse-vmemmapYasuaki Ishimatsu
For removing memmap region of sparse-vmemmap which is allocated bootmem, memmap region of sparse-vmemmap needs to be registered by get_page_bootmem(). So the patch searches pages of virtual mapping and registers the pages by get_page_bootmem(). NOTE: register_page_bootmem_memmap() is not implemented for ia64, ppc, s390, and sparc. So introduce CONFIG_HAVE_BOOTMEM_INFO_NODE and revert register_page_bootmem_info_node() when platform doesn't support it. It's implemented by adding a new Kconfig option named CONFIG_HAVE_BOOTMEM_INFO_NODE, which will be automatically selected by memory-hotplug feature fully supported archs(currently only on x86_64). Since we have 2 config options called MEMORY_HOTPLUG and MEMORY_HOTREMOVE used for memory hot-add and hot-remove separately, and codes in function register_page_bootmem_info_node() are only used for collecting infomation for hot-remove, so reside it under MEMORY_HOTREMOVE. Besides page_isolation.c selected by MEMORY_ISOLATION under MEMORY_HOTPLUG is also such case, move it too.

This is a rewrite so that we don't assume we are using the DABR throughout the code. We now use the arch_hw_breakpoint to store the breakpoint in a generic manner in the thread_struct, rather than storing the raw DABR value. The ptrace GET/SET_DEBUGREG interface currently passes the raw DABR in from userspace. We keep this functionality, so that future changes (like the POWER8 DAWR), will still fake the DABR to userspace.

Finally remove the two level TOC and build with -mcmodel=medium.

Pointers into the # percpu data area are created by this method. # # The kernel module loader relocates the percpu data section from the # original location (starting with 0xd...) to somewhere in the base # kernel percpu data space (starting with 0xc...). We need a full # 64bit relocation for this to work, hence -mcmodel=large.

.fault now can retry. The retry can break state machine of .fault. In filemap_fault, if page is miss, ra->mmap_miss is increased. In the second try, since the page is in page cache now, ra->mmap_miss is decreased. And these are done in one fault, so we can't detect random mmap file access. Add a new flag to indicate .fault is tried once. In the second try, skip ra->mmap_miss decreasing. The filemap_fault state machine is ok with it.

This allows the code to code to compile with user namespaces enabled and removes the assumption there is only the initial user namespace. Everything is converted except for the most complex of the filesystems: autofs4, 9p, afs, ceph, cifs, coda, fuse, gfs2, ncpfs, nfs, ocfs2 and xfs as those patches need a bit more review. The strategy is to push kuid_t and kgid_t values are far down into subsystems and filesystems as reasonable. Leaving the make_kuid and from_kuid operations to happen at the edge of userspace, as the values come off the disk, and as the values come in from the network. Letting compile type incompatible compile errors (present when user namespaces are enabled) guide me to find the issues. The most tricky areas have been the places where we had an implicit union of uid and gid values and were storing them in an unsigned int. Those places were converted into explicit unions. I made certain to handle those places with simple trivial patches. Out of that work I discovered we have generic interfaces for storing quota by projid. I had never heard of the project identifiers before. Adding full user namespace support for project identifiers accounts for most of the code size growth in my git tree. Ultimately there will be work to relax privlige checks from "capable(FOO)" to "ns_capable(user_ns, FOO)" where it is safe allowing root in a user names to do those things that today we only forbid to non-root users because it will confuse suid root applications. While I was pushing kuid_t and kgid_t changes deep into the audit code I made a few other cleanups. I capitalized on the fact we process netlink messages in the context of the message sender. I removed usage of NETLINK_CRED, and started directly using current->tty. Some of these patches have also made it into maintainer trees, with no problems from identical code from different trees showing up in linux-next.

2012-09-27powerpc: Remove tlb batching hack for nighthawkMichael Ellerman
In hpte_init_native() we call tlb_batching_enabled() to decide if we should setup ppc_md.flush_hash_range. tlb_batching_enabled() checks the _unflattened_ device tree, to see if we are running on a nighthawk. Since commit a223535 ("dont allow pSeries_probe to succeed without initialising MMU", Dec 2006), hpte_init_native() has been called from pSeries_probe() - at which point we have not yet unflattened the device tree. This means tlb_batching_enabled() will always return true, so the hack has effectively been disabled since Dec 2006. Ergo, I think we can drop it.
