| | | * ARM: move iotable mappings within the vmalloc regionNicolas Pitre2011-11-261-6/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In order to remove the build time variation between different SOCs with regards to VMALLOC_END, the iotable mappings are now allocated inside the vmalloc region. This allows for VMALLOC_END to be identical across all machines. The value for VMALLOC_END is now set to 0xff000000 which is right where the consistent DMA area starts. To accommodate all static mappings on machines with possible highmem usage, the default vmalloc area size is changed to 240 MB so that VMALLOC_START is no higher than 0xf0000000 by default.

| | * | | ARM: gic: allow GIC to support non-banked setupsMarc Zyngier2011-11-151-0/+4
| | | |/ | | |/| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The GIC support code is heavily using the fact that hardware implementations are exposing banked registers. Unfortunately, it looks like at least one GIC implementation (EXYNOS) offers both the distributor and the CPU interfaces at different addresses, depending on the CPU. This problem is solved by allowing the distributor and CPU interface addresses to be per-cpu variables for the platforms that require it. The EXYNOS code is updated not to mess with the GIC internals while handling interrupts, and struct gic_chip_data is back to being private. The DT binding for the gic is updated to allow an optional "cpu-offset" value, which is used to compute the various base addresses. Finally, a new config option (GIC_NON_BANKED) is used to control this feature, so the overhead is only present on kernels compiled with support for EXYNOS. Tested on Origen (EXYNOS4) and Panda (OMAP4).

After a follow up discussion with Michal, it was agreed it would be better to leave the kmem controller with just the tcp files, deferring the behavior of the other general memory.kmem.* files for a later time, when more caches are controlled. This is because generic kmem files are not used by tcp accounting and it is not clear how other slab caches would fit into the scheme. We are reverting the original commit so we can track the reference. Part of the patch is kept, because it was used by the later tcp code. Conflicts are shown in the bottom. init/Kconfig is removed from the revert entirely. Signed-off-by: Glauber Costa <glommer@parallels.com> Acked-by: Michal Hocko <mhocko@suse.cz> CC: Kirill A.

This value is ignored in the root cgroup, and in all others, caps the value specified by the admin in the net namespaces' view of tcp_sysctl_mem. If namespaces are being used, the admin is allowed to set a value bigger than cgroup's maximum, the same way it is allowed to set pretty much unlimited values in a real box.

To avoid excessive overhead in the network fast paths, the code that accounts allocated memory to a cgroup is hidden inside a static_branch(). This branch is patched out until the first non-root cgroup is created. So when nobody is using cgroups, even if it is mounted, no significant performance penalty should be seen. This patch handles the generic part of the code, and has nothing tcp-specific.

In addition to supporting a variety of features expected in a traditional hardware switch, it enables fine-grained programmatic extension and flow-based control of the network. This control is useful in a wide variety of applications but is particularly important in multi-server virtualization deployments, which are often characterized by highly dynamic endpoints and the need to maintain logical abstractions for multiple tenants. The Open vSwitch datapath provides an in-kernel fast path for packet forwarding. It is complemented by a userspace daemon, ovs-vswitchd, which is able to accept configuration from a variety of sources and translate it into packet processing rules. See http://openvswitch.org for more information and userspace utilities. Signed-off-by: Jesse Gross <jesse@nicira.com>

[PATCH V5 net-next] neigh: new unresolved queue limits unres_qlen is the number of frames we are able to queue per unresolved neighbour.

It supposes to be very fast, simple, userspace-driven alternative to existing bonding driver. Userspace library called libteam with couple of demo apps is available here: https://github.com/jpirko/libteam Note it's still in its dipers atm. team<->libteam use generic netlink for communication. That and rtnl suppose to be the only way to configure team device, no sysfs etc. Python binding of libteam was recently introduced. Daemon providing arpmon/miimon active-backup functionality will be introduced shortly. All what's necessary is already implemented in kernel team driver. v7->v8: - check ndo_ndo_vlan_rx_[add/kill]_vid functions before calling them. - use dev_kfree_skb_any() instead of dev_kfree_skb() v6->v7: - transmit and receive functions are not checked in hot paths. That also resolves memory leak on transmit when no port is present v5->v6: - changed couple of _rcu calls to non _rcu ones in non-readers v4->v5: - team_change_mtu() uses team->lock while travesing though port list - mac address changes are moved completely to jurisdiction of userspace daemon. This way the daemon can do FOM1, FOM2 and possibly other weird things with mac addresses. Only round-robin mode sets up all ports to bond's address then enslaved. - Extended Kconfig text v3->v4: - remove redundant synchronize_rcu from __team_change_mode() - revert "set and clear of mode_ops happens per pointer, not per byte" - extend comment of function __team_change_mode() v2->v3: - team_change_mtu() uses rcu version of list traversal to unwind - set and clear of mode_ops happens per pointer, not per byte - port hashlist changed to be embedded into team structure - error branch in team_port_enter() does cleanup now - fixed rtln->rtnl v1->v2: - modes are made as modules. Makes team more modular and extendable. - several commenters' nitpicks found on v1 were fixed - several other bugs were fixed. - note I ignored Eric's comment about roundrobin port selector as Eric's way may be easily implemented as another mode (mode "random") in future.

That way hardware sampling can be configured using the user space tools with only little modifications. With the patch by default new cpu_types (s390/z10, s390/z196) are returned in order to indicate that we are running a CPU which provides the hardware sampling facility. Existing user space tools will complain about an unknown cpu type. In order to be compatible with existing user space tools the `cpu_type' module parameter has been added. Setting the parameter to `timer' will force the module to return `timer' as cpu_type. The module will still try to use hardware sampling if available and the hwsampling virtual filesystem will be also be available for configuration. So this has a different effect than using the generic oprofile module parameter `timer=1'. If the basic mode sampling is enabled on the machine and the cpu_type=timer parameter is not used the kernel module will provide the following virtual filesystem: /dev/oprofile/0/enabled /dev/oprofile/0/event /dev/oprofile/0/count /dev/oprofile/0/unit_mask /dev/oprofile/0/kernel /dev/oprofile/0/user In the counter file system only the values of 'enabled', 'count', 'kernel', and 'user' are evaluated by the kernel module. Everything else must contain fixed values. The 'event' value only supports a single event - HWSAMPLING with value 0. The 'count' value specifies the hardware sampling rate as it is passed to the CPU measurement facility. The 'kernel' and 'user' flags can now be used to filter for samples when using hardware sampling. Additionally also the following file will be created: /dev/oprofile/timer/enabled This will always be the inverted value of /dev/oprofile/0/enabled. 0 is not accepted without hardware sampling.
