Steps to reproduce this. 1) Mount a file system from MMC/SD card. 2) Unmount the file system. This creates a flusher task. 3) Attempt suspend to RAM. System is unresponsive. This is because the bdi flusher thread is already in the refrigerator and will remain so until it is thawed. The MMC driver suspend routine call stack will ultimately issue a 'kthread_stop' on the bdi flusher thread and will block until the flusher thread is exited. Since the bdi flusher thread is in the refrigerator it never cleans up until thawed. Signed-off-by: Romit Dasgupta <romit@ti.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>
| * | | | mm: allow memory hotplug and hibernation in the same kernelAndi Kleen2009-11-172-8/+18

This is obviously a problem for distribution kernels who want to support both in the same image. After some discussions with Rafael and others the only problem is with parallel memory hotadd or removal while a hibernation operation is in process. It was also working for s390 before. This patch removes the Kconfig level exclusion, and simply makes the memory add / remove functions grab the pm_mutex to exclude against hibernation. Fixes a regression - old kernels didn't exclude memory hotadd and hibernation.

This could lead to oops if free_percpu() races with area map extension. * pcpu_mem_free() was called under pcpu_lock. pcpu_mem_free() might end up calling vfree() which isn't IRQ safe. This could lead to deadlock through lock order inversion via IRQ. In addition, Linus pointed out that the temporary lock dropping and subtle three-way return value of pcpu_extend_area_map() was very ugly and suggested to split the function into two - pcpu_need_to_extend() and pcpu_extend_area_map(). This patch restructures pcpu_extend_area_map() as suggested and fixes the two bugs.

This causes panic in end_migration. This patch fixes it.

This patch brings the watermark logic more in line with 2.6.30. This change results in a reduction of the number high-order GFP_ATOMIC allocation failures reported.

| * | | | page allocator: always wake kswapd when restarting an allocation attempt ↵Mel Gorman2009-11-121-1/+1

Whether OOM is triggered or not, it may retry the allocation afterwards. In times past, this would always wake kswapd as well but currently, kswapd is not woken up after direct reclaim fails. For order-0 allocations, this makes little difference but if there is a heavy mix of higher-order allocations that direct reclaim is failing for, it might mean that kswapd is not rewoken for higher orders as much as it did previously. This patch wakes up kswapd when an allocation is being retried after a direct reclaim failure. It would be expected that kswapd is already awake, but this has the effect of telling kswapd to reclaim at the higher order as well.

That had the effect of resetting the mm from which to start searching for the next swap page, to an irrelevant mm instead of to an mm in which this swap page had been found: which may increase search time by ~20%. But we're used to swapoff being slow, so never noticed the slowdown. Remove that one spurious use of swap_count(): Bo Liu thought it merely redundant, Hugh rewrote the description since it was measurably wrong.

To plug this hole for now, limit error recovery to LRU pages for now. This could be better fixed by defining a suitable protocol, but let's go this simple way for now This avoids unnecessary races with __set_page_locked() and __SetPageSlab*() and maybe more non-atomic page flag operations. This loses isolated pages which are currently in page reclaim, but these are relatively limited compared to the total memory.

Expecting this, the putback code re-checks the evictability of a page when it just moved it to the unevictable list in order to correct its decision. The problem, however, is that ordering is not garuanteed between setting PG_lru when moving the page to the list and checking PG_mlocked afterwards: #0: #1 spin_lock() if (TestClearPageMlocked()) if (PageLRU()) move to evictable list SetPageLRU() spin_unlock() if (!PageMlocked()) move to evictable list The PageMlocked() check may get reordered before SetPageLRU() in #0, resulting in #0 not moving the still mlocked page, and in #1 failing to isolate and move the page as well. The page is now stranded on the unevictable list. The race condition is very unlikely. The consequence currently is one page falling off the reclaim grid and eventually getting freed with PG_unevictable set, which triggers a warning in the page allocator. TestClearPageMlocked() in #1 already provides full memory barrier semantics. This patch adds an explicit full barrier to force ordering between SetPageLRU() and PageMlocked() so that either one of the competitors rescues the page.
