11 years agoargv_split(): teach it to handle mutable strings
Oleg Nesterov [Tue, 26 Mar 2013 23:25:04 +0000 (10:25 +1100)]
argv_split(): teach it to handle mutable strings

argv_split() allocates argv[count_argc(str)] array and assumes that it
will find the same number of arguments later.  This is obviously wrong if
this string can be changed, say, by sysctl.

With this patch argv_split() kstrndup's the whole string and does not
split it, we simply replace the spaces with zeroes and keep the allocated
memory in argv[-1] for argv_free(arg).

We do not use argv[0] because:

- str can be all-spaces or empty. In fact this case is fine,
  we could kfree() it before return, but:

- str can have a space at the start, and we can not rely on
  kstrndup(skip_spaces(str)) because it can equally race if
  this string is mutable.

Also, simplify count_argc() and kill the no longer used skip_arg().

smp: Give WARN()ing when calling smp_call_function_many()/single() in serving irq

Currently the functions smp_call_function_many()/single() will give a
WARN()ing only in the case of irqs_disabled(), but that check is not
enough to guarantee execution of the SMP cross-calls.

In many other cases such as softirq handling/interrupt handling, the two
APIs still can not be called, just as the smp_call_function_many()
comments say:

  * You must not call this function with disabled interrupts or from a
  * hardware interrupt handler or from a bottom half handler. Preemption
  * must be disabled when calling this function.

There is a real case for softirq DEADLOCK case:

CPUA                            CPUB
                                spin_lock(&spinlock)
                                Any irq coming, call the irq handler
                                irq_exit()
spin_lock_irq(&spinlock)
<== Blocking here due to
CPUB hold it
                                  __do_softirq()
                                    run_timer_softirq()
                                      timer_cb()
                                        call smp_call_function_many()
                                          send IPI interrupt to CPUA
                                            wait_csd()

Then both CPUA and CPUB will be deadlocked here.

So we should give a warning in the nmi, hardirq or softirq context as well.

Moreover, adding one new macro in_serving_irq() which indicates we are

mm: memmap_init_zone() performance improvement

We have what we call an "architectural simulator".  It is a computer
program that pretends that it is a computer system.  We use it to test the
firmware before real hardware is available.  We have booted Linux on our
simulator.  As you would expect it takes longer to boot on the simulator
than it does on real hardware.

With my patch - boot time 41 minutes
Without patch - boot time 94 minutes

These numbers do not scale linearly to real hardware.  But indicate to me
a place where Linux can be improved.

memmap_init_zone() loops through every Page Frame Number (pfn), including
pfn values that are within the gaps between existing memory sections.  The
unneeded looping will become a boot performance issue when machines
configure larger memory ranges that will contain larger and more numerous

The code will skip across invalid pfn values to reduce the number of loops

mm: speedup in __early_pfn_to_nid

When booting on a large memory system, the kernel spends considerable time
in memmap_init_zone() setting up memory zones.  Analysis shows significant
time spent in __early_pfn_to_nid().

The routine memmap_init_zone() checks each PFN to verify the nid is valid.
 __early_pfn_to_nid() sequentially scans the list of pfn ranges to find
the right range and returns the nid.  This does not scale well.  On a 4 TB
(single rack) system there are 308 memory ranges to scan.  The higher the
PFN the more time spent sequentially spinning through memory ranges.

Since memmap_init_zone() increments pfn, it will almost always be looking
for the same range as the previous pfn, so check that range first.  If it
is in the same range, return that nid.  If not, scan the list as before.

A 4 TB (single rack) UV1 system takes 512 seconds to get through the zone
code.  This performance optimization reduces the time by 189 seconds, a
36% improvement.

A 2 TB (single rack) UV2 system goes from 212.7 seconds to 99.8 seconds, a
112.9 second (53%) reduction.

mm: page_alloc: avoid marking zones full prematurely after zone_reclaim()

The following problem was reported against a distribution kernel when
zone_reclaim was enabled but the same problem applies to the mainline
kernel.  The reproduction case was as follows

1. Run numactl -m +0 dd if=largefile of=/dev/null
   This allocates a large number of clean pages in node 0

2. numactl -N +0 memhog 0.5*Mg
   This start a memory-using application in node 0.

The expected behaviour is that the clean pages get reclaimed and the
application uses node 0 for its memory.  The observed behaviour was that
the memory for the memhog application was allocated off-node since commits
cd38b11 ("mm: page allocator: initialise ZLC for first zone eligible for
zone_reclaim") and commit 76d3fbf ("mm: page allocator: reconsider zones
for allocation after direct reclaim").

The assumption of those patches was that it was always preferable to
allocate quickly than stall for long periods of time and they were meant
to take care that the zone was only marked full when necessary but an
important case was missed.

In the allocator fast path, only the low watermarks are checked.  If the
zones free pages are between the low and min watermark then allocations
from the allocators slow path will succeed.  However, zone_reclaim will
only reclaim SWAP_CLUSTER_MAX or 1<<order pages.  There is no guarantee
that this will meet the low watermark causing the zone to be marked full
prematurely.

This patch will only mark the zone full after zone_reclaim if it the min
watermarks are checked or if page reclaim failed to make sufficient
progress.

sparse-vmemmap: specify vmemmap population range in bytes

The sparse code, when asking the architecture to populate the vmemmap,
specifies the section range as a starting page and a number of pages.

This is an awkward interface, because none of the arch-specific code
actually thinks of the range in terms of 'struct page' units and always
translates it to bytes first.

In addition, later patches mix huge page and regular page backing for the
vmemmap.  For this, they need to call vmemmap_populate_basepages() on
sub-section ranges with PAGE_SIZE and PMD_SIZE in mind.  But these are not
necessarily multiples of the 'struct page' size and so this unit is too
coarse.

Just translate the section range into bytes once in the generic sparse
code, then pass byte ranges down the stack.

arm: set the page table freeing ceiling to TASK_SIZE

ARM processors with LPAE enabled use 3 levels of page tables, with an
entry in the top level (pgd) covering 1GB of virtual space.  Because of
the branch relocation limitations on ARM, the loadable modules are mapped
16MB below PAGE_OFFSET, making the corresponding 1GB pgd shared between
kernel modules and user space.

If free_pgtables() is called with the default ceiling 0, free_pgd_range()
(and subsequently called functions) also frees the page table shared
between user space and kernel modules (which is normally handled by the
ARM-specific pgd_free() function).  This patch changes defines the ARM
USER_PGTABLES_CEILING to TASK_SIZE when CONFIG_ARM_LPAE is enabled.

Note that the pgd_free() function already checks the presence of the
shared pmd page allocated by pgd_alloc() and frees it, though with ceiling
0 this wasn't necessary.

mm/hugetlb: add more arch-defined huge_pte functions

Commit abf09bed3c "s390/mm: implement software dirty bits" introduced
another difference in the pte layout vs. the pmd layout on s390,
thoroughly breaking the s390 support for hugetlbfs. This requires
replacing some more pte_xxx functions in mm/hugetlbfs.c with a
huge_pte_xxx version.

This patch introduces those huge_pte_xxx functions and their
generic implementation in asm-generic/hugetlb.h, which will now be
included on all architectures supporting hugetlbfs apart from s390.
This change will be a no-op for those architectures.

fs: don't compile in drop_caches.c when CONFIG_SYSCTL=n

drop_caches.c provides code only invokable via sysctl, so don't compile it
in when CONFIG_SYSCTL=n.

Now that we have generic and well ordered cgroup tree walkers there is
no need to keep css_get_next in the place.
