* mm, sl[aou]b: Extract common code for kmem_cache_create()Christoph Lameter2012-07-096-31/+87
| | | | | | | | | | | | Kmem_cache_create() does a variety of sanity checks but those vary depending on the allocator. Use the strictest tests and put them into a slab_common file. Make the tests conditional on CONFIG_DEBUG_VM. This patch has the effect of adding sanity checks for SLUB and SLOB under CONFIG_DEBUG_VM and removes the checks in SLAB for !CONFIG_DEBUG_VM.

* slub: remove invalid reference to list iterator variableJulia Lawall2012-07-091-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | If list_for_each_entry, etc complete a traversal of the list, the iterator variable ends up pointing to an address at an offset from the list head, and not a meaningful structure. Thus this value should not be used after the end of the iterator. The patch replaces s->name by al->name, which is referenced nearby.

* slab: move FULL state transition to an initcallGlauber Costa2012-07-021-4/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | During kmem_cache_init_late(), we transition to the LATE state, and after some more work, to the FULL state, its last state This is quite different from slub, that will only transition to its last state (previously SYSFS), in a (late)initcall, after a lot more of the kernel is ready. This means that in slab, we have no way to taking actions dependent on the initialization of other pieces of the kernel that are supposed to start way after kmem_init_late(), such as cgroups initialization. To achieve more consistency in this behavior, that patch only transitions to the UP state in kmem_init_late. In my analysis, setup_cpu_cache() should be happy to test for >= UP, instead of == FULL. It also has passed some tests I've made. We then only mark FULL state after the reap timers are in place, meaning that no further setup is expected.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 8c138b only sits in Pekka's and linux-next tree now, which tries to replace obj_size(cachep) with cachep->object_size, but has a typo in kmem_cache_free() by using "size" instead of "object_size", which casues some regressions.

* slub: refactoring unfreeze_partials()Joonsoo Kim2012-06-201-34/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Current implementation of unfreeze_partials() is so complicated, but benefit from it is insignificant. In addition many code in do {} while loop have a bad influence to a fail rate of cmpxchg_double_slab. Under current implementation which test status of cpu partial slab and acquire list_lock in do {} while loop, we don't need to acquire a list_lock and gain a little benefit when front of the cpu partial slab is to be discarded, but this is a rare case. In case that add_partial is performed and cmpxchg_double_slab is failed, remove_partial should be called case by case. I think that these are disadvantages of current implementation, so I do refactoring unfreeze_partials(). Minimizing code in do {} while loop introduce a reduced fail rate of cmpxchg_double_slab. Below is output of 'slabinfo -r kmalloc-256' when './perf stat -r 33 hackbench 50 process 4000 > /dev/null' is done. ** before ** Cmpxchg_double Looping ------------------------ Locked Cmpxchg Double redos 182685 Unlocked Cmpxchg Double redos 0 ** after ** Cmpxchg_double Looping ------------------------ Locked Cmpxchg Double redos 177995 Unlocked Cmpxchg Double redos 1 We can see cmpxchg_double_slab fail rate is improved slightly.

* slab/mempolicy: always use local policy from interrupt contextAndi Kleen2012-06-204-5/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | slab_node() could access current->mempolicy from interrupt context. However there's a race condition during exit where the mempolicy is first freed and then the pointer zeroed. Using this from interrupts seems bogus anyways. The interrupt will interrupt a random process and therefore get a random mempolicy. Many times, this will be idle's, which noone can change. Just disable this here and always use local for slab from interrupts. I also cleaned up the callers of slab_node a bit which always passed the same argument. I believe the original mempolicy code did that in fact, so it's likely a regression. v2: send version with correct logic v3: simplify. fix typo.

* mm, sl[aou]b: Extract common fields from struct kmem_cacheChristoph Lameter2012-06-146-112/+130
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Define a struct that describes common fields used in all slab allocators. A slab allocator either uses the common definition (like SLOB) or is required to provide members of kmem_cache with the definition given. After that it will be possible to share code that only operates on those fields of kmem_cache. The patch basically takes the slob definition of kmem cache and uses the field namees for the other allocators. It also standardizes the names used for basic object lengths in allocators: object_size Struct size specified at kmem_cache_create. Basically the payload expected to be used by the subsystem. size The size of memory allocator for each object. This size is larger than object_size and includes padding, alignment and extra metadata for each object (f.e. for debugging and rcu).

This, read-only snapshot can be accessed by userland, concurrently with the live target. Only one metadata snapshot can be held at a time. The pool's status line will give the block location for the current msnap. Since version 0.1.5 of the userland thin provisioning tools, the thin_dump program displays the msnap as follows: thin_dump -m <msnap root> <metadata dev> Available here: https://github.com/jthornber/thin-provisioning-tools Now that userland can access the metadata we can do various things that have traditionally been kernel side tasks: i) Incremental backups. By using metadata snapshots we can work out what blocks have changed over time. Combined with data snapshots we can ensure the data doesn't change while we back it up. A short proof of concept script can be found here: https://github.com/jthornber/thinp-test-suite/blob/master/incremental_backup_example.rb ii) Migration of thin devices from one pool to another. iii) Merging snapshots back into an external origin. iv) Asyncronous replication.

Until this has happened, ioctls return -EAGAIN. With this patch, new paths are made available in response to an ioctl too. The processing of the ioctl gets delayed until this has happened. Instead of returning an error, we submit a work item to kmultipathd (that will potentially activate the new path) and retry in ten milliseconds. Note that the patch doesn't retry an ioctl if the ioctl itself fails due to a path failure. Such retries should be handled intelligently by the code that generated the ioctl in the first place, noting that some SCSI commands should not be retried because they are not idempotent (XOR write commands). For commands that could be retried, there is a danger that if the device rejected the SCSI command, the path could be errorneously marked as failed, and the request would be retried on another path which might fail too. It can be determined if the failure happens on the device or on the SCSI controller, but there is no guarantee that all SCSI drivers set these flags correctly.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | While testing how linux behaves on SYNFLOOD attack on multiqueue device (ixgbe), I found that SYNACK messages were dropped at Qdisc level because we send them all on a single queue. Obvious choice is to reflect incoming SYN packet @queue_mapping to SYNACK packet. Under stress, my machine could only send 25.000 SYNACK per second (for 200.000 incoming SYN per second). NIC : ixgbe with 16 rx/tx queues. After patch, not a single SYNACK is dropped.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, we terminate the eeprom access through clearing the CS by: RTL_W8 (Cfg9346, ~EE_CS); or writeb (~EE_CS, ee_addr); This would left the eeprom into "Config. Register Write Enable:" state which is not expcted as the highest two bits were set to 0x11 ( expected is the "Normal" mode (0x00)). Solving this by write 0x0 instead of ~EE_CS when terminating the eeprom access. Signed-off-by: Jason Wang <jasowang@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When NetLabel is not enabled, e.g. CONFIG_NETLABEL=n, and the system receives a CIPSO tagged packet it is dropped (cipso_v4_validate() returns non-zero). In most cases this is the correct and desired behavior, however, in the case where we are simply forwarding the traffic, e.g. acting as a network bridge, this becomes a problem. This patch fixes the forwarding problem by providing the basic CIPSO validation code directly in ip_options_compile() without the need for the NetLabel or CIPSO code. The new validation code can not perform any of the CIPSO option label/value verification that cipso_v4_validate() does, but it can verify the basic CIPSO option format. The behavior when NetLabel is enabled is unchanged. Signed-off-by: Paul Moore <pmoore@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
