| * [PATCH] convert signal handling of NODEFER to act like other Unix boxes.Steven Rostedt2005-08-291-9/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It has been reported that the way Linux handles NODEFER for signals is not consistent with the way other Unix boxes handle it. I've written a program to test the behavior of how this flag affects signals and had several reports from people who ran this on various Unix boxes, confirming that Linux seems to be unique on the way this is handled. The way NODEFER affects signals on other Unix boxes is as follows: 1) If NODEFER is set, other signals in sa_mask are still blocked. 2) If NODEFER is set and the signal is in sa_mask, then the signal is still blocked. (Note: this is the behavior of all tested but Linux _and_ NetBSD 2.0 *). The way NODEFER affects signals on Linux: 1) If NODEFER is set, other signals are _not_ blocked regardless of sa_mask (Even NetBSD doesn't do this). 2) If NODEFER is set and the signal is in sa_mask, then the signal being handled is not blocked. The patch converts signal handling in all current Linux architectures to the way most Unix boxes work. Unix boxes that were tested: DU4, AIX 5.2, Irix 6.5, NetBSD 2.0, SFU 3.5 on WinXP, AIX 5.3, Mac OSX, and of course Linux 2.6.13-rcX. * NetBSD was the only other Unix to behave like Linux on point #2. The main concern was brought up by point #1 which even NetBSD isn't like Linux. So with this patch, we leave NetBSD as the lonely one that behaves differently here with #2.

| * | [IA64] Rationalise Region DefinitionsPeter Chubb2005-08-242-5/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, region numbers are defined in several files, with several names. For example, we have REGION_KERNEL in asm/page.h and RGN_KERNEL in pgtable.h We also have address definitions that should depend on the RGN_XXX macros, but are currently just long constants. The following patch reorganises all the definitions so that they have the same form (RGN_XXX), are in one place, and that addresses that depend on RGN_XXX are derived from them. (This is a necessary but not sufficient patch to allow UML-like operation on IA64). Thanks to David Mosberger for catching the change I missed in mmu_context.h.

When specified on the boot line, the swiotlb is made 8x bigger than requested. When left to the default value, it's 8x smaller than the comments indicate. For x86_64 the multiplier would be 2x.

* [PATCH] remove sys_set_zone_reclaim()Ingo Molnar2005-08-011-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This removes sys_set_zone_reclaim() for now. While i'm sure Martin is trying to solve a real problem, we must not hard-code an incomplete and insufficient approach into a syscall, because syscalls are pretty much for eternity. I am quite strongly convinced that this syscall must not hit v2.6.13 in its current form. Firstly, the syscall lacks basic syscall design: e.g. it allows the global setting of VM policy for unprivileged users. (!) [ Imagine an Oracle installation and a SAP installation on the same NUMA box fighting over the 'optimal' setting for this flag. What will they do? Will they try to set the flag to their own preferred value every second or so? ] Secondly, it was added based on a single datapoint from Martin: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-mm&m=111763597218177&w=2 where Martin characterizes the numbers the following way: ' Run-to-run variability for "make -j" is huge, so these numbers aren't terribly useful except to see that with reclaim the benchmark still finishes in a reasonable amount of time. ' in other words: the fundamental problem has likely not been solved, only a tendential move into the right direction has been observed, and a handful of numbers were picked out of a set of hugely variable results, without showing the variability data. How much variance is there run-to-run? I'd really suggest to first walk the walk and see what's needed to get stable & predictable kernel compilation numbers on that NUMA box, before adding random syscalls to tune a particular aspect of the VM ... which approach might not even matter once the whole picture has been analyzed and understood! The third, most important point is that the syscall exposes VM tuning internals in a completely unstructured way. What sense does it make to have a _GLOBAL_ per-node setting for 'should we go to another node for reclaim'? If then it might make sense to do this per-app, via numalib or so. The change is minimalistic in that it doesnt remove the syscall and the underlying infrastructure changes, only the user-visible changes. We could perhaps add a CAP_SYS_ADMIN-only sysctl for this hack, a'ka /proc/sys/vm/swappiness, but even that looks quite counterproductive when the generic approach is that we are trying to reduce the number of external factors in the VM balance picture.

* [IA64] unwind.c uses wrong unat from switch_stackKeith Owens2005-07-271-6/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | unwind.c can read the wrong unat bits from switch_stack. sw->caller_unat is the value of ar.unat when the task was blocked. sw->ar_unat is the value of ar.unat after doing st8.spill for r4-7. IOW, ar_unat is caller_unat with 4 bits changed. unw_access_gr() uses sw->ar_unat for r4-7 (correct), but it also uses sw->ar_unat for other scratch registers (incorrect). sw->ar_unat should only be used for r4-7, everything else should use sw->caller_unat, unless modified by unwind info. Using sw->ar_unat risks picking up the 4 bits that were overwritten when r4-7 were saved. Also this line is wrong unw.sw_off[unw.preg_index[UNW_REG_PFS]] = SW(AR_UNAT); and should be unw.sw_off[unw.preg_index[UNW_REG_PFS]] = SW(AR_PFS); Signed-off-by: Keith Owens <kaos@sgi.com> Signed-off-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com>
