* powerpc/fadump: reuse crashkernel parameter for fadump memory reservationHari Bathini2017-05-091-13/+10Star
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | fadump supports specifying memory to reserve for fadump's crash kernel with fadump_reserve_mem kernel parameter. This parameter currently supports passing a fixed memory size, like fadump_reserve_mem=<size> only. This patch aims to add support for other syntaxes like range-based memory size <range1>:<size1>[,<range2>:<size2>,<range3>:<size3>,...] which allows using the same parameter to boot the kernel with different system RAM sizes. As crashkernel parameter already supports the above mentioned syntaxes, this patch deprecates fadump_reserve_mem parameter and reuses crashkernel parameter instead, to specify memory for fadump's crash kernel memory reservation as well. If any offset is provided in crashkernel parameter, it will be ignored in case of fadump, as fadump reserves memory at end of RAM. Advantages using crashkernel parameter instead of fadump_reserve_mem parameter are one less kernel parameter overall, code reuse and support for multiple syntaxes to specify memory.

* crash: move crashkernel parsing and vmcore related code under CONFIG_CRASH_COREHari Bathini2017-05-099-462/+531
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Patch series "kexec/fadump: remove dependency with CONFIG_KEXEC and reuse crashkernel parameter for fadump", v4. Traditionally, kdump is used to save vmcore in case of a crash. Some architectures like powerpc can save vmcore using architecture specific support instead of kexec/kdump mechanism. Such architecture specific support also needs to reserve memory, to be used by dump capture kernel. crashkernel parameter can be a reused, for memory reservation, by such architecture specific infrastructure. This patchset removes dependency with CONFIG_KEXEC for crashkernel parameter and vmcoreinfo related code as it can be reused without kexec support. Also, crashkernel parameter is reused instead of fadump_reserve_mem to reserve memory for fadump. The first patch moves crashkernel parameter parsing and vmcoreinfo related code under CONFIG_CRASH_CORE instead of CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE. The second patch reuses the definitions of append_elf_note() & final_note() functions under CONFIG_CRASH_CORE in IA64 arch code. The third patch removes dependency on CONFIG_KEXEC for firmware-assisted dump (fadump) in powerpc. The next patch reuses crashkernel parameter for reserving memory for fadump, instead of the fadump_reserve_mem parameter. This has the advantage of using all syntaxes crashkernel parameter supports, for fadump as well. The last patch updates fadump kernel documentation about use of crashkernel parameter. This patch (of 5): Traditionally, kdump is used to save vmcore in case of a crash. Some architectures like powerpc can save vmcore using architecture specific support instead of kexec/kdump mechanism. Such architecture specific support also needs to reserve memory, to be used by dump capture kernel. crashkernel parameter can be a reused, for memory reservation, by such architecture specific infrastructure. But currently, code related to vmcoreinfo and parsing of crashkernel parameter is built under CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE. This patch introduces CONFIG_CRASH_CORE and moves the above mentioned code under this config, allowing code reuse without dependency on CONFIG_KEXEC. There is no functional change with this patch.

* cpumask: make "nr_cpumask_bits" unsignedAlexey Dobriyan2017-05-093-4/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Bit searching functions accept "unsigned long" indices but "nr_cpumask_bits" is "int" which is signed, so inevitable sign extensions occur on x86_64. Those MOVSX are #1 MOVSX bloat by number of uses across whole kernel. Change "nr_cpumask_bits" to unsigned, this number can't be negative after all. It allows to do implicit zero-extension on x86_64 without MOVSX. Change signed comparisons into unsigned comparisons where necessary. Other uses looks fine because it is either argument passed to a function or comparison is already unsigned.

* fork: free vmapped stacks in cache when cpus are offlineHoeun Ryu2017-05-091-0/+23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Using virtually mapped stack, kernel stacks are allocated via vmalloc. In the current implementation, two stacks per cpu can be cached when tasks are freed and the cached stacks are used again in task duplications. But the cached stacks may remain unfreed even when cpu are offline. By adding a cpu hotplug callback to free the cached stacks when a cpu goes offline, the pages of the cached stacks are not wasted.

* checkpatch: add --typedefsfileJerome Forissier2017-05-091-17/+35
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When using checkpatch on out-of-tree code, it may occur that some project-specific types are used, which will cause spurious warnings. Add the --typedefsfile option as a way to extend the known types and deal with this issue. This was developed for OP-TEE [1]. We run a Travis job on all pull requests [2], and checkpatch is part of that. The typical false warning we get on a regular basis is with some pointers to functions returning TEE_Result [3], which is a typedef from the GlobalPlatform APIs. We consider it is acceptable to use GP types in the OP-TEE core implementation, that's why this patch would be helpful for us.

* kernel/hung_task.c: defer showing held locksTetsuo Handa2017-05-091-1/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When I was running my testcase which may block hundreds of threads on fs locks, I got lockup due to output from debug_show_all_locks() added by commit b2d4c2edb2e4 ("locking/hung_task: Show all locks"). For example, if 1000 threads were blocked in TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE state and 500 out of 1000 threads hold some lock, debug_show_all_locks() from for_each_process_thread() loop will report locks held by 500 threads for 1000 times. This is a too much noise. In order to make sure rcu_lock_break() is called frequently, we should avoid calling debug_show_all_locks() from for_each_process_thread() loop because debug_show_all_locks() effectively calls for_each_process_thread() loop. Let's defer calling debug_show_all_locks() till before panic() or leaving for_each_process_thread() loop.

* mm, compaction: finish whole pageblock to reduce fragmentationVlastimil Babka2017-05-092-2/+35
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The main goal of direct compaction is to form a high-order page for allocation, but it should also help against long-term fragmentation when possible. Most lower-than-pageblock-order compactions are for non-movable allocations, which means that if we compact in a movable pageblock and terminate as soon as we create the high-order page, it's unlikely that the fallback heuristics will claim the whole block. Instead there might be a single unmovable page in a pageblock full of movable pages, and the next unmovable allocation might pick another pageblock and increase long-term fragmentation. To help against such scenarios, this patch changes the termination criteria for compaction so that the current pageblock is finished even though the high-order page already exists. Note that it might be possible that the high-order page formed elsewhere in the zone due to parallel activity, but this patch doesn't try to detect that. This is only done with sync compaction, because async compaction is limited to pageblock of the same migratetype, where it cannot result in a migratetype fallback. (Async compaction also eagerly skips order-aligned blocks where isolation fails, which is against the goal of migrating away as much of the pageblock as possible.) As a result of this patch, long-term memory fragmentation should be reduced. In testing based on 4.9 kernel with stress-highalloc from mmtests configured for order-4 GFP_KERNEL allocations, this patch has reduced the number of unmovable allocations falling back to movable pageblocks by 20%.

* mm, compaction: restrict async compaction to pageblocks of same migratetypeVlastimil Babka2017-05-092-9/+22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The migrate scanner in async compaction is currently limited to MIGRATE_MOVABLE pageblocks. This is a heuristic intended to reduce latency, based on the assumption that non-MOVABLE pageblocks are unlikely to contain movable pages. However, with the exception of THP's, most high-order allocations are not movable. Should the async compaction succeed, this increases the chance that the non-MOVABLE allocations will fallback to a MOVABLE pageblock, making the long-term fragmentation worse. This patch attempts to help the situation by changing async direct compaction so that the migrate scanner only scans the pageblocks of the requested migratetype. If it's a non-MOVABLE type and there are such pageblocks that do contain movable pages, chances are that the allocation can succeed within one of such pageblocks, removing the need for a fallback. If that fails, the subsequent sync attempt will ignore this restriction. In testing based on 4.9 kernel with stress-highalloc from mmtests configured for order-4 GFP_KERNEL allocations, this patch has reduced the number of unmovable allocations falling back to movable pageblocks by 30%. The number of movable allocations falling back is reduced by 12%.

* mm, page_alloc: count movable pages when stealing from pageblockVlastimil Babka2017-05-093-21/+63
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When stealing pages from pageblock of a different migratetype, we count how many free pages were stolen, and change the pageblock's migratetype if more than half of the pageblock was free. This might be too conservative, as there might be other pages that are not free, but were allocated with the same migratetype as our allocation requested. While we cannot determine the migratetype of allocated pages precisely (at least without the page_owner functionality enabled), we can count pages that compaction would try to isolate for migration - those are either on LRU or __PageMovable(). The rest can be assumed to be MIGRATE_RECLAIMABLE or MIGRATE_UNMOVABLE, which we cannot easily distinguish. This counting can be done as part of free page stealing with little additional overhead. The page stealing code is changed so that it considers free pages plus pages of the "good" migratetype for the decision whether to change pageblock's migratetype. The result should be more accurate migratetype of pageblocks wrt the actual pages in the pageblocks, when stealing from semi-occupied pageblocks. This should help the efficiency of page grouping by mobility. In testing based on 4.9 kernel with stress-highalloc from mmtests configured for order-4 GFP_KERNEL allocations, this patch has reduced the number of unmovable allocations falling back to movable pageblocks by 47%. The number of movable allocations falling back to other pageblocks are increased by 55%, but these events don't cause permanent fragmentation, so the tradeoff should be positive. Later patches also offset the movable fallback increase to some extent.

* mm, page_alloc: split smallest stolen page in fallbackVlastimil Babka2017-05-091-25/+37
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The __rmqueue_fallback() function is called when there's no free page of requested migratetype, and we need to steal from a different one. There are various heuristics to make this event infrequent and reduce permanent fragmentation. The main one is to try stealing from a pageblock that has the most free pages, and possibly steal them all at once and convert the whole pageblock. Precise searching for such pageblock would be expensive, so instead the heuristics walks the free lists from MAX_ORDER down to requested order and assumes that the block with highest-order free page is likely to also have the most free pages in total. Chances are that together with the highest-order page, we steal also pages of lower orders from the same block. But then we still split the highest order page. This is wasteful and can contribute to fragmentation instead of avoiding it. This patch thus changes __rmqueue_fallback() to just steal the page(s) and put them on the freelist of the requested migratetype, and only report whether it was successful. Then we pick (and eventually split) the smallest page with __rmqueue_smallest(). This all happens under zone lock, so nobody can steal it from us in the process. This should reduce fragmentation due to fallbacks. At worst we are only stealing a single highest-order page and waste some cycles by moving it between lists and then removing it, but fallback is not exactly hot path so that should not be a concern. As a side benefit the patch removes some duplicate code by reusing __rmqueue_smallest().

* mm, compaction: remove redundant watermark check in compact_finished()Vlastimil Babka2017-05-091-8/+0Star
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When detecting whether compaction has succeeded in forming a high-order page, __compact_finished() employs a watermark check, followed by an own search for a suitable page in the freelists. This is not ideal for two reasons: - The watermark check also searches high-order freelists, but has a less strict criteria wrt fallback. It's therefore redundant and waste of cycles. This was different in the past when high-order watermark check attempted to apply reserves to high-order pages. - The watermark check might actually fail due to lack of order-0 pages. Compaction can't help with that, so there's no point in continuing because of that. It's possible that high-order page still exists and it terminates. This patch therefore removes the watermark check. This should save some cycles and terminate compaction sooner in some cases.

Last year, Johannes Weiner has reported a regression in page mobility grouping [1] and while the exact cause was not found, I've come up with some ways to improve it by reducing the number of allocations falling back to different migratetype and causing permanent fragmentation. The series was tested with mmtests stress-highalloc modified to do GFP_KERNEL order-4 allocations, on 4.9 with "mm, vmscan: fix zone balance check in prepare_kswapd_sleep" (without that, kcompactd indeed wasn't woken up) on UMA machine with 4GB memory. There were 5 repeats of each run, as the extfrag stats are quite volatile (note the stats below are sums, not averages, as it was less perl hacking for me). Success rate are the same, already high due to the low allocation order used, so I'm not including them. Compaction stats: (the patches are stacked, and I haven't measured the non-functional-changes patches separately) patch 1 patch 2 patch 3 patch 4 patch 7 patch 8 Compaction stalls 22449 24680 24846 19765 22059 17480 Compaction success 12971 14836 14608 10475 11632 8757 Compaction failures 9477 9843 10238 9290 10426 8722 Page migrate success 3109022 3370438 3312164 1695105 1608435 2111379 Page migrate failure 911588 1149065 1028264 1112675 1077251 1026367 Compaction pages isolated 7242983 8015530 7782467 4629063 4402787 5377665 Compaction migrate scanned 980838938 987367943 957690188 917647238 947155598 1018922197 Compaction free scanned 557926893 598946443 602236894 594024490 541169699 763651731 Compaction cost 10243 10578 10304 8286 8398 9440 Compaction stats are mostly within noise until patch 4, which decreases the number of compactions, and migrations. Part of that could be due to more pageblocks marked as unmovable, and async compaction skipping those. This changes a bit with patch 7, but not so much. Patch 8 increases free scanner stats and migrations, which comes from the changed termination criteria. Interestingly number of compactions decreases - probably the fully compacted pageblock satisfies multiple subsequent allocations, so it amortizes. Next comes the extfrag tracepoint, where "fragmenting" means that an allocation had to fallback to a pageblock of another migratetype which wasn't fully free (which is almost all of the fallbacks). I have locally added another tracepoint for "Page steal" into steal_suitable_fallback() which triggers in situations where we are allowed to do move_freepages_block(). If we decide to also do set_pageblock_migratetype(), it's "Pages steal with pageblock" with break down for which allocation migratetype we are stealing and from which fallback migratetype. The last part "due to counting" comes from patch 4 and counts the events where the counting of movable pages allowed us to change pageblock's migratetype, while the number of free pages alone wouldn't be enough to cross the threshold. patch 1 patch 2 patch 3 patch 4 patch 7 patch 8 Page alloc extfrag event 10155066 8522968 10164959 15622080 13727068 13140319 Extfrag fragmenting 10149231 8517025 10159040 15616925 13721391 13134792 Extfrag fragmenting for unmovable 159504 168500 184177 97835 70625 56948 Extfrag fragmenting unmovable placed with movable 153613 163549 172693 91740 64099 50917 Extfrag fragmenting unmovable placed with reclaim. 5891 4951 11484 6095 6526 6031 Extfrag fragmenting for reclaimable 4738 4829 6345 4822 5640 5378 Extfrag fragmenting reclaimable placed with movable 1836 1902 1851 1579 1739 1760 Extfrag fragmenting reclaimable placed with unmov. 2902 2927 4494 3243 3901 3618 Extfrag fragmenting for movable 9984989 8343696 9968518 15514268 13645126 13072466 Pages steal 179954 192291 210880 123254 94545 81486 Pages steal with pageblock 22153 18943 20154 33562 29969 33444 Pages steal with pageblock for unmovable 14350 12858 13256 20660 19003 20852 Pages steal with pageblock for unmovable from mov. 12812 11402 11683 19072 17467 19298 Pages steal with pageblock for unmovable from recl. 1538 1456 1573 1588 1536 1554 Pages steal with pageblock for movable 7114 5489 5965 11787 10012 11493 Pages steal with pageblock for movable from unmov. 6885 5291 5541 11179 9525 10885 Pages steal with pageblock for movable from recl. 229 198 424 608 487 608 Pages steal with pageblock for reclaimable 689 596 933 1115 954 1099 Pages steal with pageblock for reclaimable from unmov. 273 219 537 658 547 667 Pages steal with pageblock for reclaimable from mov. 416 377 396 457 407 432 Pages steal with pageblock due to counting 11834 10075 7530 ... for unmovable 8993 7381 4616 ... for movable 2792 2653 2851 ... for reclaimable 49 41 63 What we can see is that "Extfrag fragmenting for unmovable" and "... placed with movable" drops with almost each patch, which is good as we are polluting less movable pageblocks with unmovable pages. The most significant change is patch 4 with movable page counting. On the other hand it increases "Extfrag fragmenting for movable" by 50%. "Pages steal" drops though, so these movable allocation fallbacks find only small free pages and are not allowed to steal whole pageblocks back. "Pages steal with pageblock" raises, because the patch increases the chances of pageblock migratetype changes to happen. This affects all migratetypes. The summary is that patch 4 is not a clear win wrt these stats, but I believe that the tradeoff it makes is a good one. There's less pollution of movable pageblocks by unmovable allocations. There's less stealing between pageblock, and those that remain have higher chance of changing migratetype also the pageblock itself, so it should more faithfully reflect the migratetype of the pages within the pageblock. The increase of movable allocations falling back to unmovable pageblock might look dramatic, but those allocations can be migrated by compaction when needed, and other patches in the series (7-9) improve that aspect. Patches 7 and 8 continue the trend of reduced unmovable fallbacks and also reduce the impact on movable fallbacks from patch 4. [1] https://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-mm/msg114237.html This patch (of 8): While currently there are (mostly by accident) no holes in struct compact_control (on x86_64), but we are going to add more bool flags, so place them all together to the end of the structure. While at it, just order all fields from largest to smallest.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Macs send the maximum buffer size in response on ioctl to validate negotiate security information, which causes us to fail the mount as the response buffer is larger than the expected response. Changed ioctl response processing to allow for padding of validate negotiate ioctl response and limit the maximum response size to maximum buffer size.

Furthermore, there is at least one other kind of hang possible due to the oplock break handling if there is only worker.

| * CIFS: Add asynchronous write support through kernel AIOPavel Shilovsky2017-05-022-51/+139
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds support to process write calls passed by io_submit() asynchronously. It based on the previously introduced async context that allows to process i/o responses in a separate thread and return the caller immediately for asynchronous calls. This improves writing performance of single threaded applications with increasing of i/o queue depth size.
