* nfs: modify pg_test interface to return size_tWeston Andros Adamson2014-05-297-23/+62
| | | | | | | | | | | | | This is a step toward allowing pg_test to inform the the coalescing code to reduce the size of requests so they may fit in whatever scheme the pg_test callback wants to define. For now, just return the size of the request if there is space, or 0 if there is not. This shouldn't change any behavior as it acts the same as when the pg_test functions returned bool.

This means that code can use them interchangably, which gets horribly confusing like with this nugget from slab.c: > list_del(&page->lru); > if (page->active == cachep->num) > list_add(&page->list, &n->slabs_full); This patch makes the slab and slub code use page->lru universally instead of mixing ->list and ->lru. So, the new rule is: page->lru is what the you use if you want to keep your page on a list. Don't like the fact that it's not called ->list? Too bad.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit 'slab: restrict the number of objects in a slab' uses __builtin_constant_p() on #if macro. It is wrong usage of builtin function, but it is compiled on x86 without any problem, so I can't find it before 0 day build system find it. This commit fixes the situation by using KMALLOC_MIN_SIZE, instead of KMALLOC_SHIFT_LOW. KMALLOC_SHIFT_LOW is parsed to ilog2() on some architecture and this ilog2() uses __builtin_constant_p() and results in the problem. This problem would disappear by using KMALLOC_MIN_SIZE, since it is just constant.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Now, the size of the freelist for the slab management diminish, so that the on-slab management structure can waste large space if the object of the slab is large. Consider a 128 byte sized slab. If on-slab is used, 31 objects can be in the slab. The size of the freelist for this case would be 31 bytes so that 97 bytes, that is, more than 75% of object size, are wasted. In a 64 byte sized slab case, no space is wasted if we use on-slab. So set off-slab determining constraint to 128 bytes.

| * slab: introduce byte sized index for the freelist of a slabJoonsoo Kim2014-02-081-9/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, the freelist of a slab consist of unsigned int sized indexes. Since most of slabs have less number of objects than 256, large sized indexes is needless. For example, consider the minimum kmalloc slab. It's object size is 32 byte and it would consist of one page, so 256 indexes through byte sized index are enough to contain all possible indexes. There can be some slabs whose object size is 8 byte. We cannot handle this case with byte sized index, so we need to restrict minimum object size. Since these slabs are not major, wasted memory from these slabs would be negligible. Some architectures' page size isn't 4096 bytes and rather larger than 4096 bytes (One example is 64KB page size on PPC or IA64) so that byte sized index doesn't fit to them. In this case, we will use two bytes sized index. Below is some number for this patch. * Before * kmalloc-512 525 640 512 8 1 : tunables 54 27 0 : slabdata 80 80 0 kmalloc-256 210 210 256 15 1 : tunables 120 60 0 : slabdata 14 14 0 kmalloc-192 1016 1040 192 20 1 : tunables 120 60 0 : slabdata 52 52 0 kmalloc-96 560 620 128 31 1 : tunables 120 60 0 : slabdata 20 20 0 kmalloc-64 2148 2280 64 60 1 : tunables 120 60 0 : slabdata 38 38 0 kmalloc-128 647 682 128 31 1 : tunables 120 60 0 : slabdata 22 22 0 kmalloc-32 11360 11413 32 113 1 : tunables 120 60 0 : slabdata 101 101 0 kmem_cache 197 200 192 20 1 : tunables 120 60 0 : slabdata 10 10 0 * After * kmalloc-512 521 648 512 8 1 : tunables 54 27 0 : slabdata 81 81 0 kmalloc-256 208 208 256 16 1 : tunables 120 60 0 : slabdata 13 13 0 kmalloc-192 1029 1029 192 21 1 : tunables 120 60 0 : slabdata 49 49 0 kmalloc-96 529 589 128 31 1 : tunables 120 60 0 : slabdata 19 19 0 kmalloc-64 2142 2142 64 63 1 : tunables 120 60 0 : slabdata 34 34 0 kmalloc-128 660 682 128 31 1 : tunables 120 60 0 : slabdata 22 22 0 kmalloc-32 11716 11780 32 124 1 : tunables 120 60 0 : slabdata 95 95 0 kmem_cache 197 210 192 21 1 : tunables 120 60 0 : slabdata 10 10 0 kmem_caches consisting of objects less than or equal to 256 byte have one or more objects than before. In the case of kmalloc-32, we have 11 more objects, so 352 bytes (11 * 32) are saved and this is roughly 9% saving of memory. Of couse, this percentage decreases as the number of objects in a slab decreases. Here are the performance results on my 4 cpus machine. * Before * Performance counter stats for 'perf bench sched messaging -g 50 -l 1000' (10 runs): 229,945,138 cache-misses ( +- 0.23% ) 11.627897174 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.14% ) * After * Performance counter stats for 'perf bench sched messaging -g 50 -l 1000' (10 runs): 218,640,472 cache-misses ( +- 0.42% ) 11.504999837 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.21% ) cache-misses are reduced by this patchset, roughly 5%. And elapsed times are improved by 1%.

| * slab: restrict the number of objects in a slabJoonsoo Kim2014-02-082-0/+32
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | To prepare to implement byte sized index for managing the freelist of a slab, we should restrict the number of objects in a slab to be less or equal to 256, since byte only represent 256 different values. Setting the size of object to value equal or more than newly introduced SLAB_OBJ_MIN_SIZE ensures that the number of objects in a slab is less or equal to 256 for a slab with 1 page. If page size is rather larger than 4096, above assumption would be wrong. In this case, we would fall back on 2 bytes sized index. If minimum size of kmalloc is less than 16, we use it as minimum object size and give up this optimization.

For example, when removing checkpatch warnings and errors from new drivers in the staging tree. objdiff can be used in conjunction with a git rebase to confirm that each commit made no changes to the resulting object code. It has the same return values as diff(1). This was written specifically to support adding the skein and threefish cryto drivers to the staging tree. I needed a programmatic way to confirm that commits changing >90% of the lines didn't inadvertently change the code. Temporary files (objdump output) are stored in /path/to/linux/.tmp_objdiff 'make mrproper' will remove this directory.

* | sym53c8xx_2: Set DID_REQUEUE return code when aborting squeueMikulas Patocka2014-04-131-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch fixes I/O errors with the sym53c8xx_2 driver when the disk returns QUEUE FULL status. When the controller encounters an error (including QUEUE FULL or BUSY status), it aborts all not yet submitted requests in the function sym_dequeue_from_squeue. This function aborts them with DID_SOFT_ERROR. If the disk has full tag queue, the request that caused the overflow is aborted with QUEUE FULL status (and the scsi midlayer properly retries it until it is accepted by the disk), but the sym53c8xx_2 driver aborts the following requests with DID_SOFT_ERROR --- for them, the midlayer does just a few retries and then signals the error up to sd. The result is that disk returning QUEUE FULL causes request failures. The error was reproduced on 53c895 with COMPAQ BD03685A24 disk (rebranded ST336607LC) with command queue 48 or 64 tags. The disk has 64 tags, but under some access patterns it return QUEUE FULL when there are less than 64 pending tags. The SCSI specification allows returning QUEUE FULL anytime and it is up to the host to retry.

* | powerpc: Don't try to set LPCR unless we're in hypervisor modePaul Mackerras2014-04-131-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 8f619b5429d9 ("powerpc/ppc64: Do not turn AIL (reloc-on interrupts) too early") added code to set the AIL bit in the LPCR without checking whether the kernel is running in hypervisor mode. The result is that when the kernel is running as a guest (i.e., under PowerKVM or PowerVM), the processor takes a privileged instruction interrupt at that point, causing a panic. The visible result is that the kernel hangs after printing "returning from prom_init". This fixes it by checking for hypervisor mode being available before setting LPCR. If we are not in hypervisor mode, we enable relocation-on interrupts later in pSeries_setup_arch using the H_SET_MODE hcall.
