* mm: remove old aio use_mm() commentZach Brown2013-05-071-3/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Bunch of performance improvements and cleanups Zach Brown and I have been working on. The code should be pretty solid at this point, though it could of course use more review and testing. The results in my testing are pretty impressive, particularly when an ioctx is being shared between multiple threads. In my crappy synthetic benchmark, with 4 threads submitting and one thread reaping completions, I saw overhead in the aio code go from ~50% (mostly ioctx lock contention) to low single digits. Performance with ioctx per thread improved too, but I'd have to rerun those benchmarks. The reason I've been focused on performance when the ioctx is shared is that for a fair number of real world completions, userspace needs the completions aggregated somehow - in practice people just end up implementing this aggregation in userspace today, but if it's done right we can do it much more efficiently in the kernel. Performance wise, the end result of this patch series is that submitting a kiocb writes to _no_ shared cachelines - the penalty for sharing an ioctx is gone there. There's still going to be some cacheline contention when we deliver the completions to the aio ringbuffer (at least if you have interrupts being delivered on multiple cores, which for high end stuff you do) but I have a couple more patches not in this series that implement coalescing for that (by taking advantage of interrupt coalescing). With that, there's basically no bottlenecks or performance issues to speak of in the aio code. This patch: use_mm() is used in more places than just aio. There's no need to mention callers when describing the function.

* hugetlbfs: fix mmap failure in unaligned size requestNaoya Horiguchi2013-05-071-1/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The current kernel returns -EINVAL unless a given mmap length is "almost" hugepage aligned. This is because in sys_mmap_pgoff() the given length is passed to vm_mmap_pgoff() as it is without being aligned with hugepage boundary. This is a regression introduced in commit 40716e29243d ("hugetlbfs: fix alignment of huge page requests"), where alignment code is pushed into hugetlb_file_setup() and the variable len in caller side is not changed. To fix this, this patch partially reverts that commit, and adds alignment code in caller side. And it also introduces hstate_sizelog() in order to get proper hstate to specified hugepage size.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The inline path seems to have changed the SLAB behavior for very large kmalloc allocations with commit e3366016 ("slab: Use common kmalloc_index/kmalloc_size functions"). This patch restores the old behavior but also adds diagnostics so that we can figure where in the code these large allocations occur.

| | * slub: tid must be retrieved from the percpu area of the current processorChristoph Lameter2013-04-051-3/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As Steven Rostedt has pointer out: rescheduling could occur on a different processor after the determination of the per cpu pointer and before the tid is retrieved. This could result in allocation from the wrong node in slab_alloc(). The effect is much more severe in slab_free() where we could free to the freelist of the wrong page. The window for something like that occurring is pretty small but it is possible. Signed-off-by: Christoph Lameter <cl@linux.com> Signed-off-by: Pekka Enberg <penberg@kernel.org>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The variables accessed in slab_alloc are volatile and therefore the page pointer passed to node_match can be NULL. The processing of data in slab_alloc is tentative until either the cmpxhchg succeeds or the __slab_alloc slowpath is invoked. Both are able to perform the same allocation from the freelist. Check for the NULL pointer in node_match. A false positive will lead to a retry of the loop in __slab_alloc.

Currently, we calculate "available = page->objects - page->inuse", after acquire_slab() is called in get_partial_node(). In acquire_slab() with mode = 1, we always set new.inuse = page->objects. So, acquire_slab(s, n, page, object == NULL); if (!object) { c->page = page; stat(s, ALLOC_FROM_PARTIAL); object = t; available = page->objects - page->inuse; !!! availabe is always 0 !!! ... Therfore, "available > s->cpu_partial / 2" is always false and we always go to second iteration. This patch correct this problem. After that, we don't need return value of put_cpu_partial(). So remove it.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | After we create a boot cache, we may allocate from it until it is bootstraped. This will move the page from the partial list to the cpu slab list. If this happens, the loop: list_for_each_entry(p, &n->partial, lru) that we use to scan for all partial pages will yield nothing, and the pages will keep pointing to the boot cpu cache, which is of course, invalid. To do that, we should flush the cache to make sure that the cpu slab is back to the partial list.

Locking cleanup is finally complete. cgroup_mutex is no longer exposed to individual controlelrs which used to cause nasty deadlock issues. Li fixed and cleaned up quite a bit including long standing ones like racy cgroup_path(). - device cgroup now supports proper hierarchy thanks to Aristeu. - perf_event cgroup now supports proper hierarchy. - A new mount option "__DEVEL__sane_behavior" is added. As indicated by the name, this option is to be used for development only at this point and generates a warning message when used. Unfortunately, cgroup interface currently has too many brekages and inconsistencies to implement a consistent and unified hierarchy on top. The new flag is used to collect the behavior changes which are necessary to implement consistent unified hierarchy. It's likely that this flag won't be used verbatim when it becomes ready but will be enabled implicitly along with unified hierarchy. The option currently disables some of broken behaviors in cgroup core and also .use_hierarchy switch in memcg (will be routed through -mm), which can be used to make very unusual hierarchy where nesting is partially honored. It will also be used to implement hierarchy support for blk-throttle which would be impossible otherwise without introducing a full separate set of control knobs. This is essentially versioning of interface which isn't very nice but at this point I can't see any other options which would allow keeping the interface the same while moving towards hierarchy behavior which is at least somewhat sane. The planned unified hierarchy is likely to require some level of adaptation from userland anyway, so I think it'd be best to take the chance and update the interface such that it's supportable in the long term. Maintaining the existing interface does complicate cgroup core but shouldn't put too much strain on individual controllers and I think it'd be manageable for the foreseeable future. Maybe we'll be able to drop it in a decade. Fix up conflicts (including a semantic one adding a new #include to ppc that was uncovered by header the file changes) as per Tejun. * 'for-3.10' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/cgroup: (45 commits) cpuset: fix compile warning when CONFIG_SMP=n cpuset: fix cpu hotplug vs rebuild_sched_domains() race cpuset: use rebuild_sched_domains() in cpuset_hotplug_workfn() cgroup: restore the call to eventfd->poll() cgroup: fix use-after-free when umounting cgroupfs cgroup: fix broken file xattrs devcg: remove parent_cgroup. memcg: force use_hierarchy if sane_behavior cgroup: remove cgrp->top_cgroup cgroup: introduce sane_behavior mount option move cgroupfs_root to include/linux/cgroup.h cgroup: convert cgroupfs_root flag bits to masks and add CGRP_ prefix cgroup: make cgroup_path() not print double slashes Revert "cgroup: remove bind() method from cgroup_subsys." perf: make perf_event cgroup hierarchical cgroup: implement cgroup_is_descendant() cgroup: make sure parent won't be destroyed before its children cgroup: remove bind() method from cgroup_subsys. devcg: remove broken_hierarchy tag cgroup: remove cgroup_lock_is_held() ...

Also open code memcg_cache_name because it is called only from kmem_cache_dup which frees the returned name right after kmem_cache_create_memcg makes a copy of it. Such a short-lived allocation doesn't make too much sense. So replace it by a static buffer as kmem_cache_dup is called with memcg_cache_mutex.
