* locking, irq: enclose irq_desc_lock_class in CONFIG_LOCKDEPKOSAKI Motohiro2008-12-181-5/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Impact: simplify code commit "08678b0: generic: sparse irqs: use irq_desc() [...]" introduced the irq_desc_lock_class variable. But it is used only if CONFIG_SPARSE_IRQ=Y or CONFIG_TRACE_IRQFLAGS=Y. Otherwise, following warnings happen: CC kernel/irq/handle.o kernel/irq/handle.c:26: warning: 'irq_desc_lock_class' defined but not used Actually, current early_init_irq_lock_class has a bit strange and messy ifdef. In addition, it is not valueable. 1. this function is protected by !CONFIG_SPARSE_IRQ, but that is not necessary. if CONFIG_SPARSE_IRQ=Y, desc of all irq number are initialized by NULL at first - then this function calling is safe. 2. this function protected by CONFIG_TRACE_IRQFLAGS too. but it is not necessary either, because lockdep_set_class() doesn't have bad side effect even if CONFIG_TRACE_IRQFLAGS=n. This patch bloat kernel size a bit on CONFIG_TRACE_IRQFLAGS=n and CONFIG_SPARSE_IRQ=Y - but that's ok. early_init_irq_lock_class() is not a fastpatch at all. To avoid messy ifdefs is more important than a few bytes diet. Signed-off-by: KOSAKI Motohiro <kosaki.motohiro@jp.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
* x86, sparseirq: move irq_desc according to smp_affinity, v7Yinghai Lu2008-12-175-7/+153
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Impact: improve NUMA handling by migrating irq_desc on smp_affinity changes if CONFIG_NUMA_MIGRATE_IRQ_DESC is set: - make irq_desc to go with affinity aka irq_desc moving etc - call move_irq_desc in irq_complete_move() - legacy irq_desc is not moved, because they are allocated via static array for logical apic mode, need to add move_desc_in_progress_in_same_domain, otherwise it will not be moved ==> also could need two phases to get irq_desc moved.

* sparse irq_desc[] array: core kernel and x86 changesYinghai Lu2008-12-085-8/+202
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Impact: new feature Problem on distro kernels: irq_desc[NR_IRQS] takes megabytes of RAM with NR_CPUS set to large values. The goal is to be able to scale up to much larger NR_IRQS value without impacting the (important) common case. To solve this, we generalize irq_desc[NR_IRQS] to an (optional) array of irq_desc pointers. When CONFIG_SPARSE_IRQ=y is used, we use kzalloc_node to get irq_desc, this also makes the IRQ descriptors NUMA-local (to the site that calls request_irq()). This gets rid of the irq_cfg[] static array on x86 as well: irq_cfg now uses desc->chip_data for x86 to store irq_cfg.

Through their great diagnosis, they found that the xtime_nsec value used in update_wall_time was occasionally going negative. After looking through the code for awhile, I realized we have the possibility for an underflow when three conditions are met in update_wall_time(): 1) We have accumulated a second's worth of nanoseconds, so we incremented xtime.tv_sec and appropriately decrement xtime_nsec. (This doesn't cause xtime_nsec to go negative, but it can cause it to be small). 2) The remaining offset value is large, but just slightly less then cycle_interval. 3) clocksource_adjust() is speeding up the clock, causing a corrective amount (compensating for the increase in the multiplier being multiplied against the unaccumulated offset value) to be subtracted from xtime_nsec. This can cause xtime_nsec to underflow. Unfortunately, since we notify the NTP subsystem via second_overflow() whenever we accumulate a full second, and this effects the error accumulation that has already occured, we cannot simply revert the accumulated second from xtime nor move the second accumulation to after the clocksource_adjust call without a change in behavior. This leaves us with (at least) two options: 1) Simply return from clocksource_adjust() without making a change if we notice the adjustment would cause xtime_nsec to go negative. This would work, but I'm concerned that if a large adjustment was needed (due to the error being large), it may be possible to get stuck with an ever increasing error that becomes too large to correct (since it may always force xtime_nsec negative). This may just be paranoia on my part. 2) Catch xtime_nsec if it is negative, then add back the amount its negative to both xtime_nsec and the error. This second method is consistent with how we've handled earlier rounding issues, and also has the benefit that the error being added is always in the oposite direction also always equal or smaller then the correction being applied. So the risk of a corner case where things get out of control is lessened.

Vegard Nossum reported a very simple program (a modified version attached) that can make a normal user to request a pretty large amount of kernel memory, well within the its maximum number of fds. To solve such problem, default limits are now imposed, and /proc based configuration has been introduced. A new directory has been created, named /proc/sys/fs/epoll/ and inside there, there are two configuration points: max_user_instances = Maximum number of devices - per user max_user_watches = Maximum number of "watched" fds - per user The current default for "max_user_watches" limits the memory used by epoll to store "watches", to 1/32 of the amount of the low RAM. As example, a 256MB 32bit machine, will have "max_user_watches" set to roughly 90000. That should be enough to not break existing heavy epoll users. The default value for "max_user_instances" is set to 128, that should be enough too. This also changes the userspace, because a new error code can now come out from EPOLL_CTL_ADD (-ENOSPC). The EMFILE from epoll_create() was already listed, so that should be ok.

This warning isn't necessarily justified though because the generic powerpc platform code calls set_irq_type() (which in turn calls __irq_set_trigger) with information from the device tree to establish the interrupt mappings, regardless of whether the PIC can actually set a type. A platform's irq_chip might not have a set_type function for a variety of reasons, for example: the platform may have the type essentially hard-coded, or as in the case for Cell interrupts are just messages past around that have no real concept of type, or the platform could even have a virtual PIC as on the PS3.

When printing records with seq_printf in t_show, if the read buffer has overruned by the current record, then this record won't be printed to user space through read buffer, it will just be dropped in this printing. When next printing, t_start should return the "*pos"th record, which is the one dropped by previous printing, but it just returns (m->private + *pos)th record. Here we use a more sane method to implement seq_operations which can be found in kernel code. Thus we needn't initialize m->private. About testing, it's not easy to overrun read buffer, but we can use seq_printf to print more padding bytes in t_show, then it's easy to check whether or not records are lost. This commit has been tested on both condition of overrun and non overrun.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Impact: clean up and fix for dyn ftrace filter selection The previous logic of the dynamic ftrace selection of enabling or disabling functions was complex and incorrect. This patch simplifies the code and corrects the usage. This simplification also makes the code more robust. Here is the correct logic: Given a function that can be traced by dynamic ftrace: If the function is not to be traced, disable it if it was enabled. (this is if the function is in the set_ftrace_notrace file) (filter is on if there exists any functions in set_ftrace_filter file) If the filter is on, and we are enabling functions: If the function is in set_ftrace_filter, enable it if it is not already enabled. If the function is not in set_ftrace_filter, disable it if it is not already disabled. Otherwise, if the filter is off and we are enabling function tracing: Enable the function if it is not already enabled. Otherwise, if we are disabling function tracing: Disable the function if it is not already disabled. This code now sets or clears the ENABLED flag in the record, and at the end it will enable the function if the flag is set, or disable the function if the flag is cleared. The parameters for the function that does the above logic is also simplified. Instead of passing in confusing "new" and "old" where they might be swapped if the "enabled" flag is not set. The old logic even had one of the above always NULL and had to be filled in. The new logic simply passes in one parameter called "nop". A "call" is calculated in the code, and at the end of the logic, when we know we need to either disable or enable the function, we can then use the "nop" and "call" properly. This code is more robust than the previous version. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

I believe the name != buffer strcpy() is obsolete: the design here dates from when module symbol lookup pointed into a supposedly const but sadly volatile table; nowadays it copies, but an uncalled strcpy() looks better here than the risk of a recursive BUG_ON().

It has following lock sequence. cgroup_mutex (cgroup_rmdir) -> pre_destroy -> mem_cgroup_pre_destroy-> force_empty -> cpu_hotplug.lock. (lru_add_drain_all-> schedule_work-> get_online_cpus) But, cpuset has following. cpu_hotplug.lock (call notifier) -> cgroup_mutex. (within notifier) Then, this lock sequence should be fixed. Considering how pre_destroy works, it's not necessary to holding cgroup_mutex() while calling it. As a side effect, we don't have to wait at this mutex while memcg's force_empty works.(it can be long when there are tons of pages.)

By reviewing the code, we found that the update function cpuset_track_online_nodes() was invoked after node_states[N_ONLINE] changes. It is wrong because N_ONLINE just means node has pgdat, and if node has/added memory, we use N_HIGH_MEMORY. So, We should invoke the update function after node_states[N_HIGH_MEMORY] changes, just like its commit says. This patch fixes it. And we use notifier of memory hotplug instead of direct calling of cpuset_track_online_nodes().

The addition of this system call matches analogous changes in 2.6.27 (dup3(), evenfd2(), signalfd4(), inotify_init1(), epoll_create1(), pipe2()) which added new system calls that differed from analogous traditional system calls in adding a flags argument that can be used to access additional functionality. The accept4() system call is exactly the same as accept(), except that it adds a flags bit-mask argument. Two flags are initially implemented. (Most of the new system calls in 2.6.27 also had both of these flags.) SOCK_CLOEXEC causes the close-on-exec (FD_CLOEXEC) flag to be enabled for the new file descriptor returned by accept4(). This is a useful security feature to avoid leaking information in a multithreaded program where one thread is doing an accept() at the same time as another thread is doing a fork() plus exec(). More details here: http://udrepper.livejournal.com/20407.html "Secure File Descriptor Handling", Ulrich Drepper). The other flag is SOCK_NONBLOCK, which causes the O_NONBLOCK flag to be enabled on the new open file description created by accept4(). (This flag is merely a convenience, saving the use of additional calls fcntl(F_GETFL) and fcntl (F_SETFL) to achieve the same result. Here's a test program. Works on x86-32. Should work on x86-64, but I (mtk) don't have a system to hand to test with. It tests accept4() with each of the four possible combinations of SOCK_CLOEXEC and SOCK_NONBLOCK set/clear in 'flags', and verifies that the appropriate flags are set on the file descriptor/open file description returned by accept4(). I tested Ulrich's patch in this thread by applying against 2.6.28-rc2, and it passes according to my test program. /* test_accept4.c Copyright (C) 2008, Linux Foundation, written by Michael Kerrisk <mtk.manpages@gmail.com> Licensed under the GNU GPLv2 or later. */ #define _GNU_SOURCE #include <unistd.h> #include <sys/syscall.h> #include <sys/socket.h> #include <netinet/in.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <fcntl.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <string.h> #define PORT_NUM 33333 #define die(msg) do { perror(msg); exit(EXIT_FAILURE); } while (0) /**********************************************************************/ /* The following is what we need until glibc gets a wrapper for accept4() */ /* Flags for socket(), socketpair(), accept4() */ #ifndef SOCK_CLOEXEC #define SOCK_CLOEXEC O_CLOEXEC #endif #ifndef SOCK_NONBLOCK #define SOCK_NONBLOCK O_NONBLOCK #endif #ifdef __x86_64__ #define SYS_accept4 288 #elif __i386__ #define USE_SOCKETCALL 1 #define SYS_ACCEPT4 18 #else #error "Sorry -- don't know the syscall # on this architecture" #endif static int accept4(int fd, struct sockaddr *sockaddr, socklen_t *addrlen, int flags) { printf("Calling accept4(): flags = %x", flags); if (flags != 0) { printf(" ("); if (flags & SOCK_CLOEXEC) printf("SOCK_CLOEXEC"); if ((flags & SOCK_CLOEXEC) && (flags & SOCK_NONBLOCK)) printf(" "); if (flags & SOCK_NONBLOCK) printf("SOCK_NONBLOCK"); printf(")"); } printf("\n"); #if USE_SOCKETCALL long args[6]; args[0] = fd; args[1] = (long) sockaddr; args[2] = (long) addrlen; args[3] = flags; return syscall(SYS_socketcall, SYS_ACCEPT4, args); #else return syscall(SYS_accept4, fd, sockaddr, addrlen, flags); #endif } /**********************************************************************/ static int do_test(int lfd, struct sockaddr_in *conn_addr, int closeonexec_flag, int nonblock_flag) { int connfd, acceptfd; int fdf, flf, fdf_pass, flf_pass; struct sockaddr_in claddr; socklen_t addrlen; printf("=======================================\n"); connfd = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, 0); if (connfd == -1) die("socket"); if (connect(connfd, (struct sockaddr *) conn_addr, sizeof(struct sockaddr_in)) == -1) die("connect"); addrlen = sizeof(struct sockaddr_in); acceptfd = accept4(lfd, (struct sockaddr *) &claddr, &addrlen, closeonexec_flag | nonblock_flag); if (acceptfd == -1) { perror("accept4()"); close(connfd); return 0; } fdf = fcntl(acceptfd, F_GETFD); if (fdf == -1) die("fcntl:F_GETFD"); fdf_pass = ((fdf & FD_CLOEXEC) != 0) == ((closeonexec_flag & SOCK_CLOEXEC) != 0); printf("Close-on-exec flag is %sset (%s); ", (fdf & FD_CLOEXEC) ?

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Impact: make output of available_filter_functions complete phenomenon: The first value of dyn_ftrace_total_info is not equal with `cat available_filter_functions | wc -l`, but they should be equal. root cause: When printing functions with seq_printf in t_show, if the read buffer is just overflowed by current function record, then this function won't be printed to user space through read buffer, it will just be dropped. So we can't see this function printing. So, every time the last function to fill the read buffer, if overflowed, will be dropped. This also applies to set_ftrace_filter if set_ftrace_filter has more bytes than read buffer. fix: Through checking return value of seq_printf, if less than 0, we know this function doesn't be printed. Then we decrease position to force this function to be printed next time, in next read buffer. Another little fix is to show correct allocating pages count.
