2010-08-23radix-tree: radix_tree_range_tag_if_tagged() can set incorrect tagsDave Chinner
Commit ebf8aa44beed48cd17893a83d92a4403e5f9d9e2 ("radix-tree: omplement function radix_tree_range_tag_if_tagged") does not safely set tags on on intermediate tree nodes. The code walks down the tree setting tags before it has fully resolved the path to the leaf under the assumption there will be a leaf slot with the tag set in the range it is searching. Unfortunately, this is not a valid assumption - we can abort after setting a tag on an intermediate node if we overrun the number of tags we are allowed to set in a batch, or stop scanning because we we have passed the last scan index before we reach a leaf slot with the tag we are searching for set. As a result, we can leave the function with tags set on intemediate nodes which can be tripped over later by tag-based lookups. The result of these stale tags is that lookup may end prematurely or livelock because the lookup cannot make progress. The fix for the problem involves reocrding the traversal path we take to the leaf nodes, and only propagating the tags back up the tree once the tag is set in the leaf node slot. We are already recording the path for efficient traversal, so there is no additional overhead to do the intermediately node tag setting in this manner. This fixes a radix tree lookup livelock triggered by the new writeback sync livelock avoidance code introduced in commit f446daaea9d4a420d16c606f755f3689dcb2d0ce ("mm: implement writeback livelock avoidance using page tagging").

2010-08-23radix-tree: clear all tags in radix_tree_node_rcu_freeDave Chinner
Commit f446daaea9d4a420d16c606f755f3689dcb2d0ce ("mm: implement writeback livelock avoidance using page tagging") introduced a new radix tree tag, increasing the number of tags in each node from 2 to 3. It did not, however, fix up the code in radix_tree_node_rcu_free() that cleans up after radix_tree_shrink() and hence could leave stray tags set in the new tag array. The result is that the livelock avoidance code added in the the above commit would hit stale tags when doing tag based lookups, resulting in livelocks when trying to traverse the tree. Fix this problem in radix_tree_node_rcu_free() so it doesn't happen again in the future by using a loop to walk all the tags up to RADIX_TREE_MAX_TAGS to clear the stray tags radix_tree_shrink() leaves behind.

Don't try and #include <linux/slab.h> in lib/inflate.c from the bootloader code as linux/slab.h hauls in function defs that aren't available in the bootloader code and may also haul in conflicting functions.

2010-08-09rwsem: wake queued readers when writer blocks on active read lockMichel Lespinasse
This change addresses the following situation: - Thread A acquires the rwsem for read - Thread B tries to acquire the rwsem for write, notices there is already an active owner for the rwsem. - Thread C tries to acquire the rwsem for read, notices that thread B already tried to acquire it. - Thread C grabs the spinlock and queues itself on the wait queue. - Thread B grabs the spinlock and queues itself behind C. At this point A is the only remaining active owner on the rwsem. In this situation thread B could notice that it was the last active writer on the rwsem, and decide to wake C to let it proceed in parallel with A since they both only want the rwsem for read.

Previously each waiting thread added a bias of RWSEM_WAITING_BIAS. With this change, the bias is added only once to indicate that the wait list is non-empty. This has a few nice properties which will be used in following changes: - when the spinlock is held and the waiter list is known to be non-empty, count < RWSEM_WAITING_BIAS <=> there is an active writer on that sem - count == RWSEM_WAITING_BIAS <=> there are waiting threads and no active readers/writers on that sem Signed-off-by: Michel Lespinasse <walken@google.com> Acked-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com> Cc: Mike Waychison <mikew@google.com> Cc: Suleiman Souhlal <suleiman@google.com> Cc: Ying Han <yinghan@google.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Cc: "H.

2010-08-09rwsem: lighter active count checks when waking up readersMichel Lespinasse
In __rwsem_do_wake(), we can skip the active count check unless we come there from up_xxxx(). Also when checking the active count, it is not actually necessary to increment it; this allows us to get rid of the read side undo code and simplify the calculation of the final rwsem count adjustment once we've counted the reader threads to wake. The basic observation is the following. When there are waiter threads on a rwsem and the spinlock is held, other threads can only increment the active count by trying to grab the rwsem in down_xxxx(). However down_xxxx() will notice there are waiter threads and take the down_failed path, blocking to acquire the spinlock on the way there. Therefore, a thread observing an active count of zero with waiters queued and the spinlock held, is protected against other threads acquiring the rwsem until it wakes the last waiter or releases the spinlock.

2010-08-09rwsem: fully separate code paths to wake writers vs readersMichel Lespinasse
This is in preparation for later changes in the series. In __rwsem_do_wake(), the first queued waiter is checked first in order to determine whether it's a writer or a reader. The code paths diverge at this point. The code that checks and increments the rwsem active count is duplicated on both sides - the point is that later changes in the series will be able to independently modify both sides.

The actual count is a sum of count and the cpu counters. However, count field is never different from the actual value by a factor of batch*num_online_cpu.

2010-08-05debugfs: no longer needs to depend on SYSFSRandy Dunlap
debugfs no longer uses 'kernel_subsys' (which is gone), and other kernel/ksysfs.c code is always built, so DEBUG_FS does not need to depend on SYSFS. Fixes this kconfig warning: warning: (TREE_RCU_TRACE || AMD_IOMMU_STATS && AMD_IOMMU || MTD_UBI_DEBUG && MTD && SYSFS && MTD_UBI || UBIFS_FS_DEBUG && MISC_FILESYSTEMS && UBIFS_FS || DEBUG_KMEMLEAK && DEBUG_KERNEL && EXPERIMENTAL && !MEMORY_HOTPLUG && (X86 || ARM || PPC || S390 || SPARC64 || SUPERH || MICROBLAZE) && SYSFS || TRACING || X86_PTDUMP && DEBUG_KERNEL || BLK_DEV_IO_TRACE && TRACING_SUPPORT && FTRACE && SYSFS && BLOCK) selects DEBUG_FS which has unmet direct dependencies (SYSFS) Signed-off-by: Randy Dunlap <randy.dunlap@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

2010-07-28lib/scatterlist: Hook sg_kmalloc into kmemleak (v2)Chris Wilson
kmemleak ignores page_alloc() and so believes the final sub-page allocation using the plain kmalloc is decoupled and lost. This leads to lots of false-positives with code that uses scatterlists. The options seem to be either to tell kmemleak that the kmalloc is not leaked or to notify kmemleak of the page allocations. The danger of the first approach is that we may hide a real leak, so choose the latter approach (of which I am not sure of the downsides). v2: Added comments on the suggestion of Catalin.

Introduce a new DEBUG_KMEMLEAK_DEFAULT_OFF config parameter that allows kmemleak to be disabled by default, but enabled on the command line via: kmemleak=on. Although a reboot is required to turn it on, its still useful to not require a re-compile.

2010-07-14Kbuild: Add option to set -femit-struct-debug-baseonlyAndi Kleen
Newer gcc has a -femit-struct-debug-baseonly option that dramatically reduces the size of object files with debug info. What it does is to only emit type information for structures when the structures are defined in the same file or in a header file. This means the type information for most headers are not included. This is not good when the type information is actually needed (e.g. with kgdb or systemtap) But often kernel hackers only care about line numbers and don't need all the type information anyways. In this case setting the option can be a big win: A build dir for a specific x86-64 configuration with gcc 4.5 shrunk from 2.3G to 1.2G. The compilation was also nearly a minute faster.

2010-07-09x86, ioremap: Fix incorrect physical address handling in PAE modeKenji Kaneshige
Current x86 ioremap() doesn't handle physical address higher than 32-bit properly in X86_32 PAE mode. When physical address higher than 32-bit is passed to ioremap(), higher 32-bits in physical address is cleared wrongly. Due to this bug, ioremap() can map wrong address to linear address space. In my case, 64-bit MMIO region was assigned to a PCI device (ioat device) on my system. Because of the ioremap()'s bug, wrong physical address (instead of MMIO region) was mapped to linear address space. Because of this, loading ioatdma driver caused unexpected behavior (kernel panic, kernel hangup, ...).
