For this the OPB ranges address is mapped differently (base 0x00000000

The "cpu-release-addr" is currently ioremapped and the secondary cores

Improve handling of fragmented per-CPU vmaps.  We previously don't free
up per-CPU maps until all its addresses have been used and freed.  So
fragmented blocks could fill up vmalloc space even if they actually had
no active vmap regions within them.

Add some logic to allow all CPUs to have these blocks purged in the case
of failure to allocate a new vm area, and also put some logic to trim
such blocks of a current CPU if we hit them in the allocation path (so
as to avoid a large build up of them).

Christoph reported some vmap allocation failures when using the per CPU
vmap APIs in XFS, which cannot be reproduced after this patch and the
previous bug fix.

mm: percpu-vmap fix RCU list walking

RCU list walking of the per-cpu vmap cache was broken.  It did not use
RCU primitives, and also the union of free_list and rcu_head is
obviously wrong (because free_list is indeed the list we are RCU
walking).

While we are there, remove a couple of unused fields from an earlier
iteration.

These APIs aren't actually used anywhere, because of problems with the
XFS conversion.  Christoph has now verified that the problems are solved
with these patches.  Also it is an exported interface, so I think it
will be good to be merged now (and Christoph wants to get the XFS

In particular, we need to make sure that we really flush the old

Vivek Goyal [Tue, 2 Feb 2010 19:45:46 +0000 (20:45 +0100)]
cfq-iosched: Do not idle on async queues

Few weeks back, Shaohua Li had posted similar patch. I am reposting it
with more test results.

This patch does two things.

- Do not idle on async queues.

- It also changes the write queue depth CFQ drives (cfq_may_dispatch()).
  Currently, we seem to driving queue depth of 1 always for WRITES. This is
  true even if there is only one write queue in the system and all the logic
  of infinite queue depth in case of single busy queue as well as slowly
  increasing queue depth based on last delayed sync request does not seem to
  be kicking in at all.

This patch will allow deeper WRITE queue depths (subjected to the other
WRITE queue depth contstraints like cfq_quantum and last delayed sync
request).

Shaohua Li had reported getting more out of his SSD. For me, I have got
one Lun exported from an HP EVA and when pure buffered writes are on, I
can get more out of the system. Following are test results of pure
buffered writes (with end_fsync=1) with vanilla and patched kernel. These
results are average of 3 sets of run with increasing number of threads.

I also ran buffered writes along with some sequential reads and some
buffered reads going on in the system on a SATA disk because the potential
risk could be that we should not be driving queue depth higher in presence
of sync IO going to keep the max clat low.

With some random and sequential reads going on in the system on one SATA
disk I did not see any significant increase in max clat. So it looks like
other WRITE queue depth control logic is doing its job. Here are the
results.

improbable. Should this corner case occur the end user is
warned, and the kernel debugger will prohibit updating the

14 years agox86, hw_breakpoints, kgdb: Fix kgdb to use hw_breakpoint API
Jason Wessel [Thu, 28 Jan 2010 23:04:42 +0000 (17:04 -0600)]
x86, hw_breakpoints, kgdb: Fix kgdb to use hw_breakpoint API

In the 2.6.33 kernel, the hw_breakpoint API is now used for the
performance event counters.  The hw_breakpoint_handler() now
consumes the hw breakpoints that were previously set by kgdb
arch specific code.  In order for kgdb to work in conjunction
with this core API change, kgdb must use some of the low level
functions of the hw_breakpoint API to install, uninstall, and
deal with hw breakpoint reservations.

The kgdb core required a change to call kgdb_disable_hw_debug
anytime a slave cpu enters kgdb_wait() in order to keep all the
hw breakpoints in sync as well as to prevent hitting a hw
breakpoint while kgdb is active.

During the architecture specific initialization of kgdb, it will
pre-allocate 4 disabled (struct perf event **) structures.  Kgdb
will use these to manage the capabilities for the 4 hw
breakpoint registers, per cpu.  Right now the hw_breakpoint API
does not have a way to ask how many breakpoints are available,
on each CPU so it is possible that the install of a breakpoint
might fail when kgdb restores the system to the run state.  The
intent of this patch is to first get the basic functionality of
hw breakpoints working and leave it to the person debugging the
kernel to understand what hw breakpoints are in use and what
restrictions have been imposed as a result.  Breakpoint
constraints will be dealt with in a future patch.

While atomic, the x86 specific kgdb code will call
arch_uninstall_hw_breakpoint() and arch_install_hw_breakpoint()
to manage the cpu specific hw breakpoints.

The net result of these changes allow kgdb to use the same pool
of hw_breakpoints that are used by the perf event API, but
neither knows about future reservations for the available hw
breakpoint slots.

mm: fix migratetype bug which slowed swapping

After memory pressure has forced it to dip into the reserves, 2.6.32's
5f8dcc21211a3d4e3a7a5ca366b469fb88117f61 "page-allocator: split per-cpu
list into one-list-per-migrate-type" has been returning MIGRATE_RESERVE
pages to the MIGRATE_MOVABLE free_list: in some sense depleting reserves.

Fix that in the most straightforward way (which, considering the overheads
of alternative approaches, is Mel's preference): the right migratetype is
already in page_private(page), but free_pcppages_bulk() wasn't using it.

How did this bug show up?  As a 20% slowdown in my tmpfs loop kbuild
swapping tests, on PowerMac G5 with SLUB allocator.  Bisecting to that
commit was easy, but explaining the magnitude of the slowdown not easy.

The same effect appears, but much less markedly, with SLAB, and even
less markedly on other machines (the PowerMac divides into fewer zones
than x86, I think that may be a factor).  We guess that lumpy reclaim
of short-lived high-order pages is implicated in some way, and probably
this bug has been tickling a poor decision somewhere in page reclaim.

But instrumentation hasn't told me much, I've run out of time and
imagination to determine exactly what's going on, and shouldn't hold up
the fix any longer: it's valid, and might even fix other misbehaviours.

Split 'flush_old_exec' into two functions

'flush_old_exec()' is the point of no return when doing an execve(), and
it is pretty badly misnamed.  It doesn't just flush the old executable
environment, it also starts up the new one.

Which is very inconvenient for things like setting up the new
personality, because we want the new personality to affect the starting
of the new environment, but at the same time we do _not_ want the new
personality to take effect if flushing the old one fails.

As a result, the x86-64 '32-bit' personality is actually done using this
insane "I'm going to change the ABI, but I haven't done it yet" bit
(TIF_ABI_PENDING), with SET_PERSONALITY() not actually setting the
personality, but just the "pending" bit, so that "flush_thread()" can do
the actual personality magic.

This patch in no way changes any of that insanity, but it does split the
'flush_old_exec()' function up into a preparatory part that can fail
(still called flush_old_exec()), and a new part that will actually set
up the new exec environment (setup_new_exec()).  All callers are changed
to trivially comply with the new world order.
