2010-10-20x86: Spread tlb flush vector between nodesShaohua Li
Currently flush tlb vector allocation is based on below equation: sender = smp_processor_id() % 8 This isn't optimal, CPUs from different node can have the same vector, this causes a lot of lock contention. Instead, we can assign the same vectors to CPUs from the same node, while different node has different vectors. This has below advantages: a. if there is lock contention, the lock contention is between CPUs from one node. This should be much cheaper than the contention between nodes. b. completely avoid lock contention between nodes. This especially benefits kswapd, which is the biggest user of tlb flush, since kswapd sets its affinity to specific node. In my test, this could reduce > 20% CPU overhead in extreme case.The test machine has 4 nodes and each node has 16 CPUs. I then bind each node's kswapd to the first CPU of the node. I run a workload with 4 sequential mmap file read thread. The files are empty sparse file. This workload will trigger a lot of page reclaim and tlbflush. The kswapd bind is to easy trigger the extreme tlb flush lock contention because otherwise kswapd keeps migrating between CPUs of a node and I can't get stable result. Sure in real workload, we can't always see so big tlb flush lock contention, but it's possible.

2010-10-20apic, x86: Use BIOS settings for IBS and MCE threshold interrupt LVT offsetsRobert Richter
We want the BIOS to setup the EILVT APIC registers. The offsets were hardcoded and BIOS settings were overwritten by the OS. Now, the subsystems for MCE threshold and IBS determine the LVT offset from the registers the BIOS has setup. If the BIOS setup is buggy on a family 10h system, a workaround enables IBS. If the OS determines an invalid register setup, a "[Firmware Bug]: " error message is reported. We need this change also for upcomming cpu families.

2010-10-20apic, x86: Check if EILVT APIC registers are available (AMD only)Robert Richter
This patch implements checks for the availability of LVT entries (APIC500-530) and reserves it if used. The check becomes necessary since we want to let the BIOS provide the LVT offsets. The offsets should be determined by the subsystems using it like those for MCE threshold or IBS. On K8 only offset 0 (APIC500) and MCE interrupts are supported. Beginning with family 10h at least 4 offsets are available. Since offsets must be consistent for all cores, we keep track of the LVT offsets in software and reserve the offset for the same vector also to be used on other cores. An offset is freed by setting the entry to APIC_EILVT_MASKED. If the BIOS is right, there should be no conflicts. Otherwise a "[Firmware Bug]: ..." error message is generated. However, if software does not properly determines the offsets, it is not necessarily a BIOS bug.

2010-10-19x86, mm: Hold mm->page_table_lock while doing vmalloc_syncJeremy Fitzhardinge
Take mm->page_table_lock while syncing the vmalloc region. This prevents a race with the Xen pagetable pin/unpin code, which expects that the page_table_lock is already held. If this race occurs, then Xen can see an inconsistent page type (a page can either be read/write or a pagetable page, and pin/unpin converts it between them), which will cause either the pin or the set_p[gm]d to fail; either will crash the kernel. vmalloc_sync_all() should be called rarely, so this extra use of page_table_lock should not interfere with its normal users. The mm pointer is stashed in the pgd page's index field, as that won't be otherwise used for pgds.

2010-10-18irq_work: Add generic hardirq context callbacksPeter Zijlstra
Provide a mechanism that allows running code in IRQ context. It is most useful for NMI code that needs to interact with the rest of the system -- like wakeup a task to drain buffers. Perf currently has such a mechanism, so extract that and provide it as a generic feature, independent of perf so that others may also benefit. The IRQ context callback is generated through self-IPIs where possible, or on architectures like powerpc the decrementer (the built-in timer facility) is set to generate an interrupt immediately. Architectures that don't have anything like this get to do with a callback from the timer tick. These architectures can call irq_work_run() at the tail of any IRQ handlers that might enqueue such work (like the perf IRQ handler) to avoid undue latencies in processing the work.

2010-10-15llseek: automatically add .llseek fopArnd Bergmann
All file_operations should get a .llseek operation so we can make nonseekable_open the default for future file operations without a .llseek pointer. The three cases that we can automatically detect are no_llseek, seq_lseek and default_llseek. For cases where we can we can automatically prove that the file offset is always ignored, we use noop_llseek, which maintains the current behavior of not returning an error from a seek. New drivers should normally not use noop_llseek but instead use no_llseek and call nonseekable_open at open time. Existing drivers can be converted to do the same when the maintainer knows for certain that no user code relies on calling seek on the device file. The generated code is often incorrectly indented and right now contains comments that clarify for each added line why a specific variant was chosen. In the version that gets submitted upstream, the comments will be gone and I will manually fix the indentation, because there does not seem to be a way to do that using coccinelle. Some amount of new code is currently sitting in linux-next that should get the same modifications, which I will do at the end of the merge window. Many thanks to Julia Lawall for helping me learn to write a semantic patch that does all this. ===== begin semantic patch ===== // This adds an llseek= method to all file operations, // as a preparation for making no_llseek the default. // // The rules are // - use no_llseek explicitly if we do nonseekable_open // - use seq_lseek for sequential files // - use default_llseek if we know we access f_pos // - use noop_llseek if we know we don't access f_pos, // but we still want to allow users to call lseek // @ open1 exists @ identifier nested_open; @@ nested_open(...) { <+... nonseekable_open(...) ...+> } @ open exists@ identifier open_f; identifier i, f; identifier open1.nested_open; @@ int open_f(struct inode *i, struct file *f) { <+...

2010-10-14ftrace: Rename config option HAVE_C_MCOUNT_RECORD to HAVE_C_RECORDMCOUNTSteven Rostedt
The config option used by archs to let the build system know that the C version of the recordmcount works for said arch is currently called HAVE_C_MCOUNT_RECORD which enables BUILD_C_RECORDMCOUNT. To be more consistent with the name that all archs may use, it has been renamed to HAVE_C_RECORDMCOUNT. This will be less confusing since we are building a C recordmcount and not a mcount_record.

2010-10-14x86: Barf when vmalloc and kmemcheck faults happen in NMIFrederic Weisbecker
In x86, faults exit by executing the iret instruction, which then reenables NMIs if we faulted in NMI context. Then if a fault happens in NMI, another NMI can nest after the fault exits. But we don't yet support nested NMIs because we have only one NMI stack. To prevent from that, check that vmalloc and kmemcheck faults don't happen in this context. Most of the other kernel faults in NMIs can be more easily spotted by finding explicit copy_from,to_user() calls on review.

2010-10-14Don't dump task struct in a.out core-dumpsLinus Torvalds
akiphie points out that a.out core-dumps have that odd task struct dumping that was never used and was never really a good idea (it goes back into the mists of history, probably the original core-dumping code). Just remove it. Also do the access_ok() check on dump_write(). It probably doesn't matter (since normal filesystems all seem to do it anyway), but he points out that it's normally done by the VFS layer, so ... [ I suspect that we should possibly do "vfs_write()" instead of calling ->write directly. That also does the whole fsnotify and write statistics thing, which may or may not be a good idea. ] And just to be anal, do this all for the x86-64 32-bit a.out emulation code too, even though it's not enabled (and won't currently even compile) Reported-by: akiphie <akiphie@lavabit.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

head_64.S maps up to 512 MiB, but that is not necessarity true for other entry paths, such as Xen. Thus, co-locate the setting of max_pfn_mapped with the code to actually set up the page tables in head_64.S. The 32-bit code is already so co-located. (The Xen code already sets max_pfn_mapped correctly for its own use case.) -v2: Yinghai fixed the following bug in this patch: | | max_pfn_mapped is in .bss section, so we need to set that | after bss get cleared.
