rtc: ia64: allow other architectures to use EFI RTC

Currently, the rtc-efi driver is restricted to ia64 only.  Newer
architectures with EFI support may want to also use that driver.  This
patch moves the platform device setup from ia64 into drivers/rtc and
allow any architecture with CONFIG_EFI=y to use the rtc-efi driver.

10 years agoinit: make rootdelay=N consistent with rootwait behaviour
Paul Gortmaker [Fri, 8 Aug 2014 21:19:46 +0000 (14:19 -0700)]
init: make rootdelay=N consistent with rootwait behaviour

Currently rootdelay=N and rootwait behave differently (aside from the
obvious unbounded wait duration) because they are at different places in
the init sequence.

The difference manifests itself for md devices because the call to
md_run_setup() lives between rootdelay and rootwait, so if you try to use
rootdelay=20 to try and allow a slow RAID0 array to assemble, you get
this:

[    4.526011] sd 6:0:0:0: [sdc] Attached SCSI removable disk
[   22.972079] md: Waiting for all devices to be available before autodetect

i.e.  you've achieved nothing other than delaying the probing 20s, when
what you wanted was a 20s delay _after_ the probing for md devices was
initiated.

Here we move the rootdelay code to be right beside the rootwait code, so
that their behaviour is consistent.

It should be noted that in doing so, the actions based on the
saved_root_name[0] and initrd_load() were previously put on hold by
rootdelay=N and now currently will not be delayed.  However, I think
consistent behaviour is more important than matching historical behaviour
of delaying the above two operations.

10 years agomm: memcontrol: rewrite uncharge API
Johannes Weiner [Fri, 8 Aug 2014 21:19:22 +0000 (14:19 -0700)]
mm: memcontrol: rewrite uncharge API

The memcg uncharging code that is involved towards the end of a page's
lifetime - truncation, reclaim, swapout, migration - is impressively
complicated and fragile.

Because anonymous and file pages were always charged before they had their
page->mapping established, uncharges had to happen when the page type
could still be known from the context; as in unmap for anonymous, page
cache removal for file and shmem pages, and swap cache truncation for swap
pages.  However, these operations happen well before the page is actually
freed, and so a lot of synchronization is necessary:

- Charging, uncharging, page migration, and charge migration all need
  to take a per-page bit spinlock as they could race with uncharging.

- Swap cache truncation happens during both swap-in and swap-out, and
  possibly repeatedly before the page is actually freed.  This means
  that the memcg swapout code is called from many contexts that make
  no sense and it has to figure out the direction from page state to
  make sure memory and memory+swap are always correctly charged.

- On page migration, the old page might be unmapped but then reused,
  so memcg code has to prevent untimely uncharging in that case.
  Because this code - which should be a simple charge transfer - is so
  special-cased, it is not reusable for replace_page_cache().

But now that charged pages always have a page->mapping, introduce
mem_cgroup_uncharge(), which is called after the final put_page(), when we
know for sure that nobody is looking at the page anymore.

For page migration, introduce mem_cgroup_migrate(), which is called after
the migration is successful and the new page is fully rmapped.  Because
the old page is no longer uncharged after migration, prevent double
charges by decoupling the page's memcg association (PCG_USED and
pc->mem_cgroup) from the page holding an actual charge.  The new bits
PCG_MEM and PCG_MEMSW represent the respective charges and are transferred
to the new page during migration.

mem_cgroup_migrate() is suitable for replace_page_cache() as well,
which gets rid of mem_cgroup_replace_page_cache().  However, care
needs to be taken because both the source and the target page can
already be charged and on the LRU when fuse is splicing: grab the page
lock on the charge moving side to prevent changing pc->mem_cgroup of a
page under migration.  Also, the lruvecs of both pages change as we
uncharge the old and charge the new during migration, and putback may
race with us, so grab the lru lock and isolate the pages iff on LRU to
prevent races and ensure the pages are on the right lruvec afterward.

Swap accounting is massively simplified: because the page is no longer
uncharged as early as swap cache deletion, a new mem_cgroup_swapout() can
transfer the page's memory+swap charge (PCG_MEMSW) to the swap entry
before the final put_page() in page reclaim.

Finally, page_cgroup changes are now protected by whatever protection the
page itself offers: anonymous pages are charged under the page table lock,
whereas page cache insertions, swapin, and migration hold the page lock.
Uncharging happens under full exclusion with no outstanding references.
Charging and uncharging also ensure that the page is off-LRU, which
serializes against charge migration.  Remove the very costly page_cgroup
lock and set pc->flags non-atomically.

10 years agomm: memcontrol: rewrite charge API
Johannes Weiner [Fri, 8 Aug 2014 21:19:20 +0000 (14:19 -0700)]
mm: memcontrol: rewrite charge API

These patches rework memcg charge lifetime to integrate more naturally
with the lifetime of user pages.  This drastically simplifies the code and
reduces charging and uncharging overhead.  The most expensive part of
charging and uncharging is the page_cgroup bit spinlock, which is removed
entirely after this series.

Here are the top-10 profile entries of a stress test that reads a 128G
sparse file on a freshly booted box, without even a dedicated cgroup (i.e.
 executing in the root memcg).  Before:

    15.36%              cat  [kernel.kallsyms]   [k] copy_user_generic_string
    13.31%              cat  [kernel.kallsyms]   [k] memset
    11.48%              cat  [kernel.kallsyms]   [k] do_mpage_readpage
     4.23%              cat  [kernel.kallsyms]   [k] get_page_from_freelist
     2.38%              cat  [kernel.kallsyms]   [k] put_page
     2.32%              cat  [kernel.kallsyms]   [k] __mem_cgroup_commit_charge
     2.18%          kswapd0  [kernel.kallsyms]   [k] __mem_cgroup_uncharge_common
     1.92%          kswapd0  [kernel.kallsyms]   [k] shrink_page_list
     1.86%              cat  [kernel.kallsyms]   [k] __radix_tree_lookup
     1.62%              cat  [kernel.kallsyms]   [k] __pagevec_lru_add_fn

After:

    15.67%           cat  [kernel.kallsyms]   [k] copy_user_generic_string
    13.48%           cat  [kernel.kallsyms]   [k] memset
    11.42%           cat  [kernel.kallsyms]   [k] do_mpage_readpage
     3.98%           cat  [kernel.kallsyms]   [k] get_page_from_freelist
     2.46%           cat  [kernel.kallsyms]   [k] put_page
     2.13%       kswapd0  [kernel.kallsyms]   [k] shrink_page_list
     1.88%           cat  [kernel.kallsyms]   [k] __radix_tree_lookup
     1.67%           cat  [kernel.kallsyms]   [k] __pagevec_lru_add_fn

     1.30%           cat  [kernel.kallsyms]   [k] kfree

As you can see, the memcg footprint has shrunk quite a bit.

   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
  37970    9892     400   48262    bc86 mm/memcontrol.o.old
  35239    9892     400   45531    b1db mm/memcontrol.o

This patch (of 4):

The memcg charge API charges pages before they are rmapped - i.e.  have an
actual "type" - and so every callsite needs its own set of charge and
uncharge functions to know what type is being operated on.  Worse,
uncharge has to happen from a context that is still type-specific, rather
than at the end of the page's lifetime with exclusive access, and so
requires a lot of synchronization.

Rewrite the charge API to provide a generic set of try_charge(),
commit_charge() and cancel_charge() transaction operations, much like
what's currently done for swap-in:

  mem_cgroup_try_charge() attempts to reserve a charge, reclaiming
  pages from the memcg if necessary.

  mem_cgroup_commit_charge() commits the page to the charge once it
  has a valid page->mapping and PageAnon() reliably tells the type.

  mem_cgroup_cancel_charge() aborts the transaction.

This reduces the charge API and enables subsequent patches to
drastically simplify uncharging.

As pages need to be committed after rmap is established but before they
are added to the LRU, page_add_new_anon_rmap() must stop doing LRU
additions again.  Revive lru_cache_add_active_or_unevictable().

Revert "slab: remove BAD_ALIEN_MAGIC"

commit a640616822b2 ("slab: remove BAD_ALIEN_MAGIC") assumes that the

 "Again, ACPICA leads the pack (47 commits), followed by cpufreq (18
  commits) and system suspend/hibernation (9 commits).

  From the new code perspective, the ACPICA update brings ACPI 5.1 to
  the table, including a new device configuration object called _DSD
  (Device Specific Data) that will hopefully help us to operate device
  properties like Device Trees do (at least to some extent) and changes
  related to supporting ACPI on ARM.

  Apart from that we have hibernation changes making it use radix trees
  to store memory bitmaps which should speed up some operations carried
  out by it quite significantly.  We also have some power management
  changes related to suspend-to-idle (the "freeze" sleep state) support
  and more preliminary changes needed to support ACPI on ARM (outside of
  ACPICA).

  The rest is fixes and cleanups pretty much everywhere.

  Specifics:

   - ACPICA update to upstream version 20140724.  That includes ACPI 5.1
     material (support for the _CCA and _DSD predefined names, changes
     related to the DMAR and PCCT tables and ARM support among other
     things) and cleanups related to using ACPICA's header files.  A
     major part of it is related to acpidump and the core code used by
     that utility.  Changes from Bob Moore, David E Box, Lv Zheng,
     Sascha Wildner, Tomasz Nowicki, Hanjun Guo.

   - Radix trees for memory bitmaps used by the hibernation core from
     Joerg Roedel.

   - Support for waking up the system from suspend-to-idle (also known
     as the "freeze" sleep state) using ACPI-based PCI wakeup signaling
     (Rafael J Wysocki).

   - Fixes for issues related to ACPI button events (Rafael J Wysocki).

   - New device ID for an ACPI-enumerated device included into the
     Wildcat Point PCH from Jie Yang.

   - ACPI video updates related to backlight handling from Hans de Goede
     and Linus Torvalds.

checkpatch: update $declaration_macros, add uninitialized_var

Using uninitialized_var reports a false positive for "Missing blank line

Fix it by adding uninitialized_var to the $declaration_macros exceptions
list.

Move the macro list after $Type is declared.

Add optional prefixes to DECLARE_<FOO> and DEFINE_<BAR>

c90 section "6.7.2 Type Specifiers" says:

That means that:
    short int is the same as int short
    unsigned short int is the same as int unsigned short

checkpatch currently parses only a subset of these allowed types.

For instance: "unsigned short" and "signed short" are found by
checkpatch as a specific type, but none of the or "int short" or "int
signed short" variants are found.

Add another table for the "kernel style misordered" variants.

Add this misordered table to the findable types.

Warn when the misordered style is used.

This improves the "Missing a blank line after declarations" test as it
depends on the correct parsing of the $Declare variable which looks for
"$Type $Ident;" (ie: declarations like "int foo;").

specific form.

ie: this code does not match:

foo = kmalloc();
if (!foo) {
rtn = -ENOMEM;
printk("Out of memory!\n");
goto out;
}

This test could also be a false positive when the logging message itself
does not specify anything about memory, but I did not find any false
positives in my limited testing.

spatch could be a better solution but correctness seems non-trivial for
that tool too.

[The increases in __bitmap_and{,not} are due to bug fixes 17/18,18/18.
No idea why bitmap_weight suddenly appears.] While 163 bytes treewide is
insignificant, I believe the bitmap functions are often called with
locks held, so saving even a few cycles might be worth it.

While making these changes, I found a few other things that might be
worth including.  16,17,18 are actual bug fixes.  The rest shouldn't
change the behaviour of any of the functions, provided no-one passed
negative nbits values.  If something should come up, it should be fairly
bisectable.

A few issues I thought about, but didn't know what to do with:

* Many of the functions misbehave if nbits is compile-time 0; the
  out-of-line functions generally handle 0 correctly.  bitmap_fill() is
  particularly bad, whether the 0 is known at compile time or not.  It
  would probably be nice to add detection of at least compile-time 0 and
  handle that appropriately.

* I didn't change __bitmap_shift_{left,right} to use unsigned because I
  want to fully understand why the algorithm works before making that
  change.  However, AFAICT, they behave correctly for all (positive) shift
  amounts.  This is not the case for the small_const_nbits versions.  If
  for example nbits = n = BITS_PER_LONG, the shift operators turn into
  no-ops (at least on x86), so one get *dst = *src, whereas one would
  expect to get *dst=0.  That difference in behaviour is somewhat
  annoying.

This patch (of 18):

The compiler can generate slightly smaller and simpler code when it
knows that "nbits" is non-negative.  Since no-one passes a negative
bit-count, this shouldn't affect the semantics.

There is no reason to maintain the list structure while freeing the

also inefficient from a locality-of-reference viewpoint, since they are

Furthermore, if we jumped to exit: after detecting list corruption, it
is actually dangerous.

So just free the elements in the order they were allocated, using the

allocation of one of the debug element fails, we just end up calling
kfree(NULL) for the trailing elements.

Minor details: Use sizeof(*elts) instead of sizeof(void *), and return
err immediately when allocation of elts fails, to avoid introducing
another label just before the final return statement.
