I have tested parport_pc and also tried with pcmcia_cs, only thing I
get is disappointment. So I give up :-(

Now I switched to usbserial.
usbserial drivers are working great !!

Now I do not want to use parport_pc and pcmcia_cs atleast for 2 years,
I hope in 2 years this will be solved ;)

In the mean time, If you think my problem is solved just ping to me I
will test and let you know the results.

Thank you for all your support and help.

I am sorry for delay.

Now I am testing for same problem with  2.6.27-rc6.:
1. On different MYSON Technology Inc SURECOM EP-320X-S 100/10M
Ethernet PCI Adapters
2. On different Linux PCs
3. With different Ethernet switches which supports 100 Mb
4. With different CAT 5 ethernet cables which supports 100 Mb
5. Also checking old patches on fealnx as per Jeff.

And it seems, I am getting following error, with few ethernet switches
and cables and when I switch ethernet cables  :
"NETDEV WATCHDOG: eth0 (fealnx): transmit timed out
eth0: Transmit timed out, status 00000000, resetting..."

Now I am trying to confirm that problem is coming from ethernet
switches and cables.

I am also facing one more Issue :

With same 100 Mb ethernet switch and cable my another NIC run at 100
Mb/s and full duplex but MYSON Technology Inc SURECOM EP-320X-S
100/10M runs on 10 Mb/s and half duplex.

I debug fealnx it says : PHYType 1 duplex_mode : 2 line_speed : 2
crvalue : 0xe40e61 bcrvalue : 0x10 imrvalue : 0x46c flags : 0x1

So it is saying duplex_mode : 2 (full duplex) and line_speed = 2
(100M) then why I am getting 10MB half duplex ?

Yes, I still see this build error.
What would it take to have Bjorn's patch merged into mainline?

Thanks for pointing out the fix that should have been obvious,
Dave.  That's a much better solution than sprinkling #ifdef
CONFIG_PNP through drivers.

Rafael, in case you missed the checkin, it's commit

Numbers from my Q6600 Aldi supermarket box (hm, your box is from different shelf)

tbench -t 60 4 localhost followed by 4 60s netperf TCP_RR pairs, each pair
jabbering on a separate port and affine to a separate CPU.  Configs are
as close as I can make them, all kernels built and tested today by
identical userland.

I spent two weeks chasing various and sundry netperf numbers recently,
only learning in the process that netperf is _utterly immune_ to
bisection.  Tbench numbers don't look promising for bisection from here.

Note to quixotic self: destroy log immediately lest you be tempted.

P.S. fwiw, scheduler difference between these two kernels is practically
nill.

Apparently stupid for netfilter.  Uninteresting to this thread I
suppose, so disregard.

Don't hold your breath, but after putting my network config of a very
severe diet, I'm starting to see something resembling sensible results.

Turns off all netfilter options except tables, etc.

Since 2.6.22.19-cfs-v24.1 and 2.6.23.17-cfs-v24.1 schedulers are
identical, and these are essentially identical with 2.6.24.7, what I
read from numbers below is that cfs in 2.6.23 was somewhat less than
wonderful for either netperf or tbench,  Something happened somewhere
other than the scheduler at 23->24 which cost us some performance, and
another something happened at 26->27.  I'll likely go looking again..
and likely regret it again ;-)

Math ain't free is part of it, though apparently not much.  For me,
tbench regression 22->27 is ~10%, and netperf regression is ~16%.

lose a bit, preempt haters gain a bit.  Performance shift.

Bisecting 26->27 yet again turned up a repeatable downturn in netperf
throughput.  There is no difference at this point with tbench. 

Bisect says first bad commit is 847106f, a security merge.  Post

I assume that c142bda458a gave a good results as well...

One additional sanity check could be to rebase security 6f0f0fd4963 on top 
of the c142bda458a and then see if bisection among those security commits 
on top yields to the the same result... Though I doubt it can change much 
because there was not that much relevant non-security things in the merge 
in question.

I'm not a master of git-foo, so that is not an option.  However, a dinky

    security: remove register_security hook

    The register security hook is no longer required, as the capability
    module is always registered.  LSMs wishing to stack capability as
    a secondary module should do so explicitly.

perhaps re-test commit 6f0f0fd49 and its parent commit, 93cbace7a0.

It looks like a potentially bogus bisection result, but _maybe_ it has 
relevance: changes the size of "struct security_operations", which could 
have alignment and layout effects on all sorts of kernel variables, 
kmalloc sizes, etc.

This may well be a mythical creature infestation for all I know ;-), but
it's address is somewhere in the 2069f45..847106f block, 316 commits,
none of which look like they should be the least bit interesting to
netperf.  I reverted this particular commit in 27.git, got the expected
result.  Looks like I'll keep poking at it, can't seem to resist.  Grr.

are you sure it's 2069f45..847106f? Filtering out the 
likely-uninteresting commits:

git log --pretty=format:"%h: %s" 2069f45..847106f | grep -viE \
'block|alsa|pcmcia|sound|Merge|iosched|blk|DAC960|scsi|s390|paride|pktcdvd|filter|cdrom|drm'

gives us:

 7daf705: Start using the new '%pS' infrastructure to print symbols
 6f0f0fd: security: remove register_security hook
 93cbace: security: remove dummy module fix
 5915eb5: security: remove dummy module
 b478a9f: security: remove unused sb_get_mnt_opts hook
 32502b8: splice: fix generic_file_splice_read() race with page invalidation
 8b3d356: ramfs: enable splice write
 a144ff0: xen: Avoid allocations causing swap activity on the resume path

which really only leaves that security commit your bisection fingered. 
Which _slightly_ raises its likelyhood of being implicated. Structure 
size changes can move two formerly far-apart netperf-relevant symbols on 
the same cacheline, which can start cache ping-pong-ing badly.

It wouldnt be the first such incident - alignment changes impacting 
macro benchmarks. (and it's hard to find it as the thing that changes 
alignment/size/sharedness might be something totally unrelated)

It's still a bit too early to say this for sure though ...

Yeah, as sure as I can be.  I've built both (et al) kernels several

I sure hope it's something like ping-pong, it's driving me NUTS.

How about dividing the problem to smaller blocks then by restoring

Well, what I've done is check out the "bad" tree, reverted every darn
commit between there and the "good" tree, and then reverted the reverts
so I have a nice merge-free line and don't have to remember to think
backward.  (probably sounds silly to git-foo masters)  I'll try
bisecting that in the a.m. and see what happens.

This was my initial idea (which was mainly an error from my part as I 
misread some shaids and midunderstood that the first regressing would be 
the merge instead of the actual change), but in here I meant taking parts 
of the 6f0f0fd on top of 6f0f0fd^. The most easiest way to do that 
actually might be to do in fact the opposite, ie., but some of the 
datastructure/layout changes back on top of 6f0f0fd and see if the 
performance get restored (besides testing the Eric's patch).

It bisected to 1c9ce52.  Reverting that in 27.git had the expected
result, nada.  Full bisection/test log below - you can jump straight to
post run sanity checks.  I'm torn between building a straight line tree
from v2.6.26 through git.today and bisecting that sucker, or exorcising
netperf from my box and swearing a sacred oath to never download the
damned thing again.  Nuking netperf is most attractive option.

BTW, the reason it's revert revert is that I reverse bisected the revert
tree yesterday, and it emitted the same darn result.  I immediately said
"yeah right, ya screwed up", and created the revert revert tree to make
sure I couldn't fumble negation.

:-)

gcc compiling something slightly differently would be a nice theory but 
it sort of breaks down now as this commit touches only one .c file...
In the past when I did some static inline .h -> .c uninline sizing tests
I noticed that some changes happened also in places which should have been 
quite much unrelated. Though all the changes were minor anyway (in the 
places I did look), e.g., routed the conditional paths slightly 
differently and added one xor clear reg.

Could you please try following patch ?

[PATCH] security_ops moved to read_mostly section

"struct security_operations *security_ops" should be moved to read_mostly

Yeah, the driver wasn't changed about this.

Basically it's a warning message that CPU usage got higher due to
somehow wrongly behaving hardware.  The driver behavior itself didn't
do anything wrong.  That is, if the driver didn't show it, you
wouldn't have noticed any change (or noticed improvements in some apps
:)

Of course, it would be ideal if we can add a perfect workaround for
it, but right now, I have no idea what to do better.  So, I don't
think it's worth to keeping this open as a regression.


thanks,

Takashi

I'm sorry for not replying sooner. This is current status: Problem was
never resolved. I tried to bisect, but I only ran into other problems
with either config not being supported for my machine prior to certain
date while trying to find a good bisection point. It's been a while
now, so I don't remember everything exactly, but I may try to
reproduce it tomorrow on the latest -git and see what comes up.

Will report back as soon as I have more info. Thanks,


Vegard

I think this might be a regression caused by namespace changes which we 
addressed in SELinux policy.  Which distro version & policy version is 
this seen with?

By which I mean, this was caused by a non-SELinux change to the upstream 
kernel many, many eons ago.

As mentioned in the bugzilla, any related avc messages would be useful.

hm, seems that 2.6.24 is OK but 2.6.25 is not.  I must have missed the
bug when testing 2.6.25-based kernels.

I started a git bisection search but after half an hour I hit bad
bisection breakage: a complete machine hang in fib_rules_init().

Why am I seeing this on two machines and two vanilla-installed distros
but nobody else is reporting it?

What we actually need to see is the output of:
/sbin/ausearch -i -m AVC -sv no

However, the most likely explanation is simply that when /proc/net was
changed from being a directory to being a symlink to /proc/self/net,
that introduced an additional permission check on accesses
of /proc/net/<whatever>, namely the read check on the symlink itself.
And since that check wasn't happening on /proc/net accesses with older
kernels, older policies didn't allow it.

As to why others haven't reported it, I expect that they have updated
their policies to newer ones that allow the necessary access.  The fact
that legacy distros wouldn't have such updated policies isn't surprising
- they don't push updates to those distros for new kernels.  FC5 and FC6
are both EOL'd, right?

In any event, we didn't change anything in SELinux - the change was
elsewhere (in the proc/net implementation).  Don't blame the messenger
please.

BTW, if the explanation above is correct, then a user can allow this
permission in their own policy by creating a local policy module and
inserting it, ala:
$ cat fixprocnet.te
policy_module(fixprocnet, 1.0)
require {
        attribute domain;
        type proc_net_t;
}
# Allow all domains to read the /proc/net symlink.
allow domain proc_net_t:lnk_file read;

$ make -f /usr/share/selinux/devel/Makefile fixprocnet.pp
$ /usr/sbin/semodule -i fixprocnet.pp

Requires selinux-policy-devel to be installed.

Running `ls -l /proc/net' on the FC6 machine produces:

Vanilla FC5 broke and vanilla FC6 broke.  Did vanilla FC7, 8 or 9 break?

http://smolt.fedoraproject.org/static/stats/stats.html shows 11,000-odd
people running FC5 and FC6.  It would be incautious to assume that all
those people have updated their selinux rules.

And _requiring_ people to update their selinux rules to fix a
kernel-caused regression is a pretty big deal for some people, I
expect.

Then again, given that this regression has been out there since 2.6.25,
I guess not too many people are hurting from it.  But we suck.

Just so I'm clear on the context of the problem, it sounds like if a FC5 
(I'm limiting myself to FC5 for the moment) user upgraded to a recent 
(2.6.25+) kernel (non-distro supplied in the case of FC5) then they 
will run into problems unless they also upgrade their SELinux policy, 
yes?

If that is the case I'm not sure it is really that big of a deal.  Maybe 
I'm in the minority here, but in my mind once you step away from the 
distro supplied kernel (also applies to other packages, although those 
are arguably less critical) you should also bear the responsibility to 
make sure you upgrade/tweak/install whatever other bits need to be 
fixed.

We suck?  Maybe, but some explanation about why we suck in this 
particular case would be helpful as far as I'm concerned.  I don't 
really care about identifying the guilty suckees, I'm more interested 
in finding out what happened to cause us to suck because of this.

Agreed.  I believe we carefully gave selinux the same paths for /proc/net
that it had before so I don't know why this affects user space.

I know we had some selinux review when we made the change.

Nope.  Releasing a non-backward-compatible kernel.org kernel is a big
deal.

We'll do it sometimes, with long notice, much care and much deliberation.

We did it this time by sheer accident.  That's known in the trade as a
"bug".

Because we unintentionally and unknowingly released a kernel which is
not compatible with previous kernels without notifying any of our users
and without any consideration or planning.

Yes, often the consequences of the screwup are fairly small, but it's a
screwup nonetheless.



We don't even know the extent of the damage yet.  Which distros were
affected? With which versions of which userspace packages?

Well, there is also the issue of distro specific "special sauce" patches 
which might cause different behavior from the kernel.org kernel, but 
now we are starting to do down a rat hole ...

It is somewhat comforting to know that we can call what we do a "trade", 
further commentary on my part is best left to the imagination :)

Okay, so we suck because broke something in 2.6.25 that went undetected 
because current SELinux policies happen to be compatible with the 
breakage.  Gotcha.

Can I assume that the "right" thing to do would be to find the problem 
and revert whatever change caused the issue, yes?  Or are we happy to 
wait and see since the fallout so far has been minimal?

I don't think a revert is justified after all this time.  afaik I'm the
first person to notice the problem, and it's been out there for
multiple months.

However it would be good if we could find some not-completely-stinky
way of making the old userspace work.

otoh, people who are shipping 2.6.25- and 2.6.26-based distros probably
wouldn't want such a patch in their kernels anyway.

Disable selinux?

Get a selinux mystic to update that selinux policy.  I bet it is a one line
change to each the policy about /proc/net as a symlink.

Although I am puzzled why we don't get the same label as /proc/net as a directory
had.

This seems to me to be an extremely fragile selinux user space policy.
In their code that derives security labels from path names.
Why don't we have AppArmor in the kernel again?

Further I don't see how we could have possibly have supported that user space
policy.  How can we apply a user space defined label required by the selinux
policy to a symlink that did not exist?

I expect cd /proc/self/net would work.  In your situation and you can
see /proc/self/net/dev.

Everything here sounds to me like that selinux policy is impossibly brittle.
And anything that is that brittle I have no intention in claiming is a bug
in proc.

I think I explained that one before - in the case of /proc, the only
stable basis we have for deducing the security properties / protection
requirements for a given entry is its name, and its name can be reliably
constructed from the kernel's internal proc_dir_entry tree w/o any
ambiguity or potential for userspace manipulation (unlike the pathname
returned by d_path for a normal file).  I'd agree that it isn't optimal,
but it is what we have.

I'm not blaming anyone here, or trying to argue that the /proc/net
changes should be reverted.  What happened here is that a kernel
interface (/proc/net) changed in a subtle way that had a side effect on
permission checking, and we tried to hide that change at the time (in
terms of ensuring that the new /proc/self/net tree would still be
labeled correctly), and we missed the fact that there would still be a
new check on the symlink read that wouldn't be covered by existing
policy.

I'm not arguing that this is a bug in proc or in selinux for that
matter.

I do however think that the mantra that we can't require users to update
policy for kernel changes is unsupportable in general.  The precise set
of permission checks on a given operation is not set in stone and it is
not part of the kernel/userland interface/contract.  Policy isn't
"userspace"; it governs what userspace can do, and it has to adapt to
kernel changes.

Users who are willing/able to run the latest kernel on their own w/o
waiting for a coordinated update of kernel and policy from their
distribution ought to be able to create a local policy module - it isn't
rocket science, and they can always fall back on audit2allow if they
need to do so.

I should note here that for changes to SELinux, we have gone out of our
way to avoid such breakage to date through the introduction of
compatibility switches, policy flags to enable any new checks, etc
(albeit at a cost in complexity and ever creeping compatibility code).
But changes to the rest of the kernel can just as easily alter the set
of permission checks that get applied on a given operation, and I don't
think we are always going to be able to guarantee that new kernel + old
policy will Just Work.

I know of at least 2 more directories that I intend to turn into
symlinks into somewhere under /proc/self.  How do we keep from
breaking selinux policies when I do that?

For comparison how do we handle sysfs? 
How do we handle device nodes in tmpfs?
Ultimately do we want to implement xattrs and inotify on /proc?  
Or is there another way that would simplify maintenance?

I suspect we could tweak the logic in selinux_proc_get_sid() to always
label all symlinks under /proc with the base proc_t type already used
for e.g. /proc/self, at which point existing policies would be ok.

> For comparison how do we handle sysfs?

Unresolved; presently has a single label for all nodes.
See https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=228902
for prior discussion of fine-grained labeling support for sysfs.

> How do we handle device nodes in tmpfs?

udev has selinux support - looks up the appropriate context in a
userland config file (file_contexts) via libselinux matchpathcon(3) and
sets it upon creation.  tmpfs has long supported getting/setting
security.* attributes.

> Ultimately do we want to implement xattrs and inotify on /proc?

If proc supported setxattr, then I suppose early userspace could label
it instead of the kernel needing to determine a label internally.  But
not sure how we'd cleanly migrate to avoid breakage with old userspace.

so if proc is mounted anywhere other then /proc the selinux policy would 
do odd things?

No, the logic doesn't care where proc is mounted.  Only the name
relative to the root of proc is used.

FWIW, a fix for this issue has been applied to:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jmorris/security-testing-2.6#next

The particular commit can be viewed at:
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/jmorris/security-testing-2.6.git;a=commit;h=ea6b184f7d521a503ecab71feca6e4057562252b

This should address not only the /proc/net breakage but also any future
changes to turn existing directories into symlinks.

Looking at this discussion closely from what I see selinux is designed
to work on the principle of least privilege.  If you make a user space
visible but compatible change, selinux will keep the system until
you update selinux.  Is selinux exposing too much to user space?
    
selinux was taken into consideration when the change was made.
The patch was even updated with feedback from Stephen Smiley.

This is still a bug, but I haven't tried this workload on 2.6.26, so I'm
not sure it is a regression.  Unfortunately, I won't be able to test it
again until after the plumber's conference.

That's fine.  In case it turns out to be a regression, it's better to list it
for now IMO. :-)

It should be. The patch listed should be good as far as I'm concerned 
but needs to be pushed by Bjorn as PnP mainatainer. Generally speaking 0 
wouldn't be a _very_ necesarily invalid value it seems so it's maybe not 
very nice.

If someone wants a changelog though, this should do:

===
PNP: avoid checking unitialized BARs for conflicts

Avoid checking a PCI BAR for conflicts if the BIOS left it unitialized.

yeah I think it would be a good idea.
something to do with ehci_hcd, i.g. if I blacklist
ehci_hcd  Disabling IRQ#23 message doesnt seem to be showing up.

If you can try 2.6.27-rc6, that should fix it.

[Matthew Garrett]

I don't think this is a regression. The correct way to drive this 
hardware has always been through the ACPI video driver. The fact that 
thinkpad-acpi would also attempt to drive it was a bug.

I'm pretty sure thinkpad-acpi is older then ACPI-video. So yes, I
believe this is a regression, but it may be pretty old one.

2.6.28-rc5: Reported regressions 2.6.26 -> 2.6.27

[Rafael J. Wysocki]

[NOTE:
 I closed a number of Bugzilla entries dedicated to regressions introduced
 between 2.6.26 and 2.6.27 that appeared to have been fixed to me or where
 the reporters had been totally unresponsive for extended periods of time
 (given that they are notified every week ...).]

This message contains a list of some regressions introduced between 2.6.26 and
2.6.27, for which there are no fixes in the mainline I know of.  If any of them
have been fixed already, please let me know.

If you know of any other unresolved regressions introduced between 2.6.26
and 2.6.27, please let me know either and I'll add them to the list.
Also, please let me know if any of the entries below are invalid.

Each entry from the list will be sent additionally in an automatic reply to
this message with CCs to the people involved in reporting and handling the
issue.

Christoph, as per the recent analysis of Mike:

 http://fixunix.com/kernel/556867-regression-benchmark-throughput-loss-a622cf6-f7160c7-pull.html

all scheduler components of this regression have been eliminated.

In fact his numbers show that scheduler speedups since 2.6.22 have 
offset and hidden most other sources of tbench regression. (i.e. the 
scheduler portion got 5% faster, hence it was able to offset a 
slowdown of 5% in other areas of the kernel that tbench triggers)

Although I respect the improvements, wake_up() is still several orders
of magnitude slower than it was in 2.6.22 and wake_up() is at the top
of the profiles in tbench runs.

It really is premature to close this regression at this time.

I am working with every spare moment I have to try and nail this
stuff, but unless someone else helps me people need to be patient.

hm, several orders of magnitude slower? That contradicts Mike's 
numbers and my own numbers and profiles as well: see below.

The scheduler's overhead barely even registers on a 16-way x86 system 
i'm running tbench on. Here's the NMI profile during 64 threads tbench 
on a 16-way x86 box with an v2.6.28-rc5 kernel [config attached]:

Note that the scheduler does not even show up in the profile up to 
entry #15!

I've also summarized NMI profiler output by major subsystems:

                         left ( 1349494/21570252):  6.26%

The scheduler's functions are absolutely flat, and consistent with an 
extreme context-switching rate of 1.35 million per second. The 
scheduler can go up to about 20 million context switches per second on 
this system:

 procs -----------memory---------- ---swap-- -----io---- --system-- -----cpu------
  r  b   swpd   free   buff  cache   si   so    bi    bo   in   cs us sy id wa st
 32  0      0 32229696  29308 649880    0    0     0     0 164135 20026853 24 76  0  0  0
 32  0      0 32229752  29308 649880    0    0     0     0 164203 20032770 24 76  0  0  0
 32  0      0 32229752  29308 649880    0    0     0     0 164201 20036492 25 75  0  0  0

... and 7% scheduling overhead is roughly consistent with 1.35/20.0.

Wake up affinities and data flow caching is just fine in this workload 
- we've got scheduler statistics for that and they look good too.

It all looks like pure old-fashioned straight overhead in the 
networking layer to me. Do we still touch the same global cacheline 
for every localhost packet we process? Anything like that would show 
up big time.

Anyway, in terms of scheduling there's absolutely nothing anomalous i 
can see about this workload. Scheduling looks healthy throughout - and 
the few things we noticed causing unnecessary overhead are now fixed 
in -rc5. (but it's all in the <5% range of impact of total scheduling 
overhead - i.e. in the 0.4% absolute range in this workload)

And the thing is, the scheduler's task in this workload is by far the 
most difficult one conceptually: it has to manage and optimize 
concurrency of _future_ processing, with an event frequency that is 
_WAY_ out of the normal patterns: more than 1.3 million context 
switches per second (!). It also switches to/from completely 
independent contexts of computing, with the all the implications that 
this brings.

Networking and VFS "just" has to shuffle around bits in memory along a 
very specific plan given to it by user-space. That plan is 
well-specified and goes along the lines of: "copy this (already 
cached) file content to that socket" and back.

By the raw throughput figures the system is pushing a couple of 
million data packets per second.

Still we spend 7 times more CPU time in the networking code than in 
the scheduler or in the user-copy code. Why?

Yes we do, I find strange we dont see dst_release() in your NMI profile

I posted a patch ( commit 5635c10d976716ef47ae441998aeae144c7e7387
net: make sure struct dst_entry refcount is aligned on 64 bytes)
 (in net-next-2.6 tree)
to properly align struct dst_entry refcounter and got 4% speedup on tbench on my machine.

Small speedups too with commit ef711cf1d156428d4c2911b8c86c6ce90519dc45
(net: speedup dst_release())

Also on net-next-2.6, patches avoid dirtying last_rx on netdevices (loopback for example)
, it helps a lot tbench too.

Ouch, +4% from a oneliner networking change? That's a _huge_ speedup 
compared to the things we were after in scheduler land. A lot of 
scheduler folks worked hard to squeeze the last 1-2% out of the 
scheduler fastpath (which was not trivial at all). The _full_ 
scheduler accounts for only about 7% of the total system overhead here 
on a 16-way box...

So why should we be handling this anything but a plain networking 
performance regression/weakness? The localhost scalability bottleneck 
has been reported a _long_ time ago.

4% on my machine, but apparently my machine is sooooo special (see oprofile thread),
so maybe its cpus have a hard time playing with a contended cache line.

It definitly needs more testing on other machines.

Maybe you'll discover patch is bad on your machines, this is why it's in
net-next-2.6

struct dst_entry problem was already discovered a _long_ time ago
and probably solved at this time.

(commit f1dd9c379cac7d5a76259e7dffcd5f8edc697d17

Then, a gremlin came and broke the thing.

They are many contended cache lines in the system, we can do our
best to try to make them disappear. Thats not always possible.

Another contended cache line is the rwlock in iptables.
I remember Stephen had a patch to make the thing use RCU.

ok, i'll try it on my testbox too, to check whether it has any effect 
- find below the port to -git.

tbench _is_ very sensitive to seemingly small details - it seems to be 
hoovering at around some sort of CPU cache boundary and penalizing 
random alignment changes, as we drop in and out of the sweet spot.

Mike Galbraith has been spending months trying to pin down all the 
issues.

Subject: [PATCH] net: make sure struct dst_entry refcount is aligned on 64 bytes

As found in the past (commit f1dd9c379cac7d5a76259e7dffcd5f8edc697d17
[NET]: Fix tbench regression in 2.6.25-rc1), it is really
important that struct dst_entry refcount is aligned on a cache line.

We cannot use __atribute((aligned)), so manually pad the structure
for 32 and 64 bit arches.

for 32bit : offsetof(truct dst_entry, __refcnt) is 0x80
for 64bit : offsetof(truct dst_entry, __refcnt) is 0xc0

As it is not possible to guess at compile time cache line size,
we use a generic value of 64 bytes, that satisfies many current arches.
(Using 128 bytes alignment on 64bit arches would waste 64 bytes)

Add a BUILD_BUG_ON to catch future updates to "struct dst_entry" dont
break this alignment.

"tbench 8" is 4.4 % faster on a dual quad core (HP BL460c G1), Intel E5450 @3.00GHz
(2350 MB/s instead of 2250 MB/s)

it gives a small speedup of ~1% on my box:

   before:      Throughput 3437.65 MB/sec 64 procs
   after:       Throughput 3473.99 MB/sec 64 procs

... although that's still a bit close to the natural tbench noise 
range so it's not conclusive and not like a smoking gun IMO.

But i think this change might just be papering over the real 
scalability problem that this workload has in my opinion: that there's 
a single localhost route/dst/device that millions of packets are 
squeezed through every second:

 phoenix:~> ifconfig lo
 lo        Link encap:Local Loopback  
           inet addr:127.0.0.1  Mask:255.0.0.0
           UP LOOPBACK RUNNING  MTU:16436  Metric:1
           RX packets:258001524 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
           TX packets:258001524 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
           collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 
           RX bytes:679809512144 (633.1 GiB)  TX bytes:679809512144 (633.1 GiB)

There does not seem to be any per CPU ness in localhost networking - 
it has a globally single-threaded rx/tx queue AFAICS even if both the 
client and server task is on the same CPU - how is that supposed to 
perform well? (but i might be missing something)

What kind of test-system do you have - one with P4 style Xeon CPUs 
perhaps where dirty-cacheline cachemisses to DRAM were particularly 
expensive?

Strange, I get 2350 MB/sec on my 8 cpus box. "tbench 8"

Yes, this point was mentioned on netdev a while back.

Stephen had a patch for this one too, but we got tbench noise too with this patch

Its a HP BL460c g1

Dual quad-core cpus Intel E5450  @3.00GHz

So 8 logical cpus. My bench was "tbench 8"

I think Ingo may have a Nehalem. Let's just say that those things rock, 
and have rather good memory throughput.

hm, i'm not sure whether i can post benchmarks from the Nehalem box - 
but i can confirm it in general terms that it's rather nice ;-)

This was run on another testbox (4x4 Barcelona) that rocks similarly 
well in terms of memory subsystem latencies: which seems to be 
tbench's main current critical path.

For the tbench bragging rights i'd probably turn off CONFIG_SECURITY 
and a few other options. Plus i'd run with 16 threads only - in this 
test i ran with 4x overload (64 tbench threads, not 16) to stress the 
scheduler harder.

Although we degrade very gently with overload so the numbers arent all 
that much different:

   16 threads: Throughput 3463.14 MB/sec 16 procs
   64 threads: Throughput 3473.99 MB/sec 64 procs
  256 threads: Throughput 3457.67 MB/sec 256 procs
 1024 threads: Throughput 3448.85 MB/sec 1024 procs

 [ so it's the same within noise range. ]

1024 threads is already a massive 64x overload so beyond any 
reasonable limit of workload sanity.

Which suggests that the main limitation factor is cacheline ping-pong 
that is already in full effect at 16 threads.

Which is supported by the "most expensive instructions" top-10 sorted 
list:

The usual profiling caveat applies: it's not _these_ instructions that 
matter, but the surrounding code that calls them. Profiling overhead 
is delayed by a couple of instructions - the more out-of-order a CPU 
is, the larger this delay can be. But even a quick look to the list 
above shows that all of the heavy cachemisses are generated by 
networking.

Beyond the usual suspects of syscall entry and memcpy, it's only 
networking. We dont even have the mov %cr3 TLB flush overhead in this 
list, load_cr3() is a distant #30:

ffffffff8023049f:        0      0f 22 d8                mov    %rax,%cr3
ffffffff802304a2:   126303      c9                      leaveq

The place for the sock_rfree() hit looks a bit weird, and i'll 
investigate it now a bit more to place the real overhead point 
properly. (i already mapped the test-bit overhead: that comes from 
napi_disable_pending())
 
The first entry is 10x the cost of the last entry in the list so 
clearly we've got 1-2 brutal cacheline ping-pongs that dominate the 
overhead of this workload.

Intel released the NDA from various web sites a week or two ago, and Intel 
is now selling it in the US (I think today was in fact the official 
launch), so I think benchmarks are safe - you can buy the dang things on 
the street.

I don't know what availability is, of course. But I doubt that Intel would 
mind Nehalem benchmarks even if it were a paper launch - at least from my 
personal experience, I've not seen any bad behavior (and plenty of good).

ok, here's a new set of profiles. (again for tbench 64-thread on a 
16-way box, with v2.6.28-rc5-19-ge14c8bf and with the kernel config i 
posted before.)

Here are the per major subsystem percentages:

           NET       overhead ( 5786945/10096751): 57.31%
           security  overhead (  925933/10096751):  9.17%
           usercopy  overhead (  837887/10096751):  8.30%
           sched     overhead (  753662/10096751):  7.46%
           syscall   overhead (  268809/10096751):  2.66%
           IRQ       overhead (  266500/10096751):  2.64%
           slab      overhead (  180258/10096751):  1.79%
           timer     overhead (   92986/10096751):  0.92%
           pagealloc overhead (   87381/10096751):  0.87%
           VFS       overhead (   53295/10096751):  0.53%
           PID       overhead (   44469/10096751):  0.44%
           pagecache overhead (   33452/10096751):  0.33%
           gtod      overhead (   11064/10096751):  0.11%
           IDLE      overhead (       0/10096751):  0.00%
---------------------------------------------------------
                         left (  753878/10096751):  7.47%

The breakdown is very similar to what i sent before, within noise.

[ 'left' is random overhead from all around the place - i categorized 
  the 500 most expensive functions in the profile per subsystem.
  I stopped short of doing it for all 1300+ functions: it's rather
  laborous manual work even with hefty use of regex patterns.
  It's also less meaningful in practice: the trend in the first 500
  functions is present in the remaining 800 functions as well. I 
  watched the breakdown evolve as i increased the coverage - in 
  practice it is the first 100 functions that matter - it just doesnt 
  change after that. ]

The readprofile output below seems structured in a more useful way now 
- i tweaked compiler options to have the profiler hits spread out in a 
more meaningful way. I collected 10 million NMI profiler hits, and 
normalized the readprofile output up to 100%.

[ I'll post per function analysis as i complete them, as a reply to
  this mail. ]

Maybe an alignment problem ?
Oh, I understand, you hit the netdevice->last_rx update probblem, already corrected on net-next-2.6

TCP established/timewait table is now RCUified (for linux-2.6.29), this one
should go down in profiles.

Again, do a non-NMI profile and the top (at least for me)
looks like this:

samples  %        app name                 symbol name
473       6.3928  vmlinux                  finish_task_switch
349       4.7169  vmlinux                  tcp_v4_rcv

167       2.2571  vmlinux                  U3copy_to_user

That tcp_v4_rcv() hit is %98 on the wake_up() call it does.

Can _you_ please do a NMI profile and see what your real problem is?

I can't imagine that Niagara (or whatever) is so weak that it can't do 
NMI's. 

The fact is, David, that Ingo just posted a profile that was _better_ than 
anything you have ever posted, and it doesn't show what you complain 
about. So he's not seeing it. Asking him to do a _stupid_ profile is just 
that: stupid.

So try to figure out why his (better) profile doesn't match your 
(inferior) one, instead of asking him to do stupid things. It's some 
difference in architectures, likely: maybe the sparc timekeeping is crap, 
maybe it's a cache issue and sparc caches are crap, maybe it's something 
where Niagara (is it niagara) has some oddness that shows up because it 
has that odd four-threads+four-cores or whatever.

It's on my workstation which is a much simpler 2 processor
UltraSPARC-IIIi (1.5Ghz) system.

And yes I will investigate, it's all I've been doing in my
spare time these past few weeks.

Ok. It could easily be something like a cache footprint issue. And while I 
don't know my sparc cpu's very well, I think the Ultrasparc-IIIi is super- 
scalar but does no out-of-order and speculation, no? So I could easily see 
that the indirect branches in the scheduler hurt much more, and might 
explain why the x86 profile looks so different.

One thing that non-NMI profiles also tend to show is "clumping", which in 
turn tends to rather excessively pinpoint code sequences that release the 
irq flag - just because those points show up in profiles, rather than 
being a spread-out-mush. So it's possible that Ingo's profile did show the 
scheduler more, but it was in the form of much more spread out "noise" 
rather than the single spike you saw.

I does only very simple speculation, but you're description is accurate.

Surely it would do branch prediction, but maybe not indirect branch?
I did wonder why those indirect function calls were added everywhere
in the scheduler...

They didn't show up in the newest generation of x86 CPUs, but simpler
implementations won't handle them as well.

I wouldn't expect that to cause such a big regression on its own, but
it would still be interesting to test changing them to direct calls.

That would be "branch target prediction" (and a BTB - "Branch Target 
Buffer" to hold it), and no, I don't think Sparc does that. You can 
certainly do it for in-order machines too, but I think it's fairly rare.

It's sufficiently different from the regular "pick up the address from the 
static instruction stream, and also yank the kill-chain on mispredicted 
direction" to be real work to do. Unlike a compare or test instruction, 
it's not at all likely that you can resolve the final address in just a 
single pipeline stage, and without that, it's usually too late to yank the 
kill-chain.

(And perhaps equally importantly, indirect branches are relatively rare on 
old-style Unix benchmarks - ie SpecInt/FP - or in databases. So it's not 
something that Sparc would necessarily have spent the effort on.)

There is obviously one very special indirect jump: "ret". That's the one 
that is common, and that tends to have a special branch target buffer that 
is a pure stack. And for that, there is usually a special branch target 
register that needs to be set up 'x' cycles before the ret in order to 
avoid the stall (then the predition is checking that register against the 
branch target stack, which is somewhat akin to a regular conditional 
branch comparison).

So I strongly suspect that an indirect (non-ret) branch flushes the 
pipeline on sparc. It is possible that there is a "prepare to jump" 
instruction that prepares the indirect branch stack (kind of a "push 
prediction information"). I suspect Java sees a lot more indirect 
branches than traditional Unix loads, so maybe Sun did do that.

Probably true. OTOH, I've seen indirect branches get compiled to direct
branches or the common-case special cased into a direct branch

if (object->fn == default_object_fn)
  default_object_fn();

That might be an easy way to test suspicions about CPU scheduler
slowdowns... (adding a likely() there, and using likely profiling would
help ensure you got the defualt case right).

Yes, UltraSPARC has a RAS or Return Address Stack.  I think it has
effectively zero latency (ie. you can call some function, immediately
"ret" and it hits the RAS).  This is probably because, due to delay slots,
there is always going to be one instruction in between anyways. :)

It doesn't flush the pipeline, it just stalls it waiting for the
address computation.

Branches are predicted and can execute in the same cycle as the
condition-code setting instruction they depend upon.

There really isn't anything special done here for indirect jumps,
other than pushing onto the RAS.  Indirects just suck :)

Easy enough, since i don't know how to do spiffy NMI profile.. yet ;-) 

I revived the 2.6.25 kernel where I tested back-ports of recent sched
fixes, and did a non-NMI profile of 2.6.22.19 and the back-port kernel.

The test kernel has all clock fixes 25->.git, min_vruntime accuracy fix
native_read_tsc() fix, and back looking buddy.  No knobs turned, and
only testing one pair per CPU, as to not take unfair advantage of back
looking buddy.  Netperf TCP_RR (hits sched harder) looks about the same.

Tbench 4 throughput was so close you would call these two twins.

This is the Well-known pattern of user-copy overhead, which centers 
around this single REP MOVS instruction:

                nr-of-hits
                 .........

ffffffff80341ef8:        0 	90                   	nop    

That's to be expected - tbench shuffles 3.5 GB of effective data 
to/from sockets. That's 7.5 GB due to double-copy. So for every 64 
bytes of data transferred we spend 1.4 CPU cycles in this specific 
function - that is OK-ish.

this is a short function, and 90% of the overhead is false leaked-in 
overhead from callsites:

ffffffff80488c7f:   267141 	53                   	push   %rbx

unfortunately i have a hard time mapping its callsites. 
pskb_expand_head() is the only static callsite, but it's not active in 
the profile.

The _usual_ callsite is normally skb_release_all(), which does have 
overhead:

ffffffff80489449:      925 <skb_release_all>:
ffffffff80489449:      925 	53                   	push   %rbx
ffffffff8048944a:     5249 	48 89 fb             	mov    %rdi,%rbx
ffffffff8048944d:        4 	e8 3c ff ff ff       	callq  ffffffff8048938e <skb_release_head_state>
ffffffff80489452:     1149 	48 89 df             	mov    %rbx,%rdi
ffffffff80489455:    13163 	5b                   	pop    %rbx
ffffffff80489456:        0 	e9 23 f8 ff ff       	jmpq   ffffffff80488c7e <skb_release_data>

it is also tail-optimized, which explains why i found little 
callsites. The main callsite of skb_release_all() is:

ffffffff80488b86:       26 	e8 be 08 00 00       	callq  ffffffff80489449 <skb_release_all>

which is __kfree_skb(). That is a frequently referenced function, and 
in my profile there's a single callsite active:

ffffffff804c1027:      432 	e8 56 7b fc ff       	callq  ffffffff80488b82 <__kfree_skb>

which is tcp_ack() - subject of a later email. The wider context is:

ffffffff804c0ffc:      433 	41 2b 85 e0 00 00 00 	sub    0xe0(%r13),%eax
ffffffff804c1003:     4843 	89 85 f0 00 00 00    	mov    %eax,0xf0(%rbp)
ffffffff804c1009:     1730 	48 8b 45 30          	mov    0x30(%rbp),%rax
ffffffff804c100d:      311 	41 8b 95 e0 00 00 00 	mov    0xe0(%r13),%edx
ffffffff804c1014:        0 	48 83 b8 b0 00 00 00 	cmpq   $0x0,0xb0(%rax)
ffffffff804c101b:        0 	00 
ffffffff804c101c:      418 	74 06                	je     ffffffff804c1024 <tcp_ack+0x50d>
ffffffff804c101e:       37 	01 95 f4 00 00 00    	add    %edx,0xf4(%rbp)
ffffffff804c1024:        2 	4c 89 ef             	mov    %r13,%rdi
ffffffff804c1027:      432 	e8 56 7b fc ff       	callq  ffffffff80488b82 <__kfree_skb>

this is a good, top-of-the-line x86 CPU with a really good BTB 
implementation that seems to be able to fall through calls and tail 
optimizations as if they werent there.

some guesses are:

(gdb) list *0xffffffff804c1003
0xffffffff804c1003 is in tcp_ack (include/net/sock.h:789).
784	
785	static inline void sk_wmem_free_skb(struct sock *sk, struct sk_buff *skb)
786	{
787		skb_truesize_check(skb);
788		sock_set_flag(sk, SOCK_QUEUE_SHRUNK);
789		sk->sk_wmem_queued -= skb->truesize;
790		sk_mem_uncharge(sk, skb->truesize);
791		__kfree_skb(skb);
792	}
793	

both sk and skb should be cache-hot here so this seems unlikely.

(gdb) list *0xffffffff804c10090xffffffff804c1009 is in tcp_ack (include/net/sock.h:736).
731	}
732	
733	static inline int sk_has_account(struct sock *sk)
734	{
735		/* return true if protocol supports memory accounting */
736		return !!sk->sk_prot->memory_allocated;
737	}
738	
739	static inline int sk_wmem_schedule(struct sock *sk, int size)
740	{

this cannot be it - unless sk_prot somehow ends up being dirtied or 
false-shared?

Still, my guess would be on ffffffff804c1009 and a 
sk_prot->memory_allocated cachemiss: look at how this instruction uses 
%ebp, and the one that shows the many hits in skb_release_data() 
pushes %ebp to the stack - that's where the CPU's OOO trick ends: it 
has to compute the result and serialize on the cachemiss.

I did some investigation on this part (memory_allocated) and discovered UDP had a problem,
not TCP (and tbench)

commit 270acefafeb74ce2fe93d35b75733870bf1e11e7

net: sk_free_datagram() should use sk_mem_reclaim_partial()

I noticed a contention on udp_memory_allocated on regular UDP applications.

While tcp_memory_allocated is seldom used, it appears each incoming UDP frame
is currently touching udp_memory_allocated when queued, and when received by
application.

One possible solution is to use sk_mem_reclaim_partial() instead of
sk_mem_reclaim(), so that we keep a small reserve (less than one page)
of memory for each UDP socket.

We did something very similar on TCP side in commit
9993e7d313e80bdc005d09c7def91903e0068f07
([TCP]: Do not purge sk_forward_alloc entirely in tcp_delack_timer())

A more complex solution would need to convert prot->memory_allocated to
use a percpu_counter with batches of 64 or 128 pages.

this too is spread out, no spikes i noticed.

Seems like the subsequent functions seem to be spread out pretty 
evenly, with no particular spikes visible.

(gdb) list *0xffffffff804c52f7
0xffffffff804c52f7 is in tcp_current_mss (net/ipv4/tcp_output.c:1078).
1073					  inet_csk(sk)->icsk_af_ops->net_header_len -
1074					  inet_csk(sk)->icsk_ext_hdr_len -
1075					  tp->tcp_header_len);

1078			xmit_size_goal -= (xmit_size_goal % mss_now);
1079		}
1080		tp->xmit_size_goal = xmit_size_goal;
1081	
1082		return mss_now;
(gdb) 

it's this division:

        if (doing_tso) {
        [...]
			xmit_size_goal -= (xmit_size_goal % mss_now);

Has no-one hit this before? Perhaps this is why switching loopback 
networking to TSO had a performance impact for others?

It's still a bit weird ... how can a single division cause this much 
overhead? tcp_bound_to_half_wnd() [which is called straight before 
this sequence] seems low-overhead.

No problem Ingo, I am very glad you take so much time to profil kernel ;)

I had too many problems with profilers on my dev machine lately :(

I spent hours profiling the networking code, and no, i didnt read all 
the incoming emails in parallel - i read them after that.

I have established it beyond reasonable doubt that the scheduler is 
doing the right thing with the config i've posted. Your "wakeup is two

Yes Mike has been doing tireless good work.

Another thing I noticed is that because all of the scheduler
core operations are now function pointer callbacks, the
call chain is deeper for core operations like wake_up().

Much of it used to be completely inlined into try_to_wake_up()

With the addition of the RB tree stuff, that adds yet another
unavoidable depth of function call.

wake_up() is usually at the deepest part of the call chain,
so this is a big deal

The scheduler has accounted for at least %10 of the tbench
regressions at this point, what are you talking about?

I'm wondering if you're not looking at totally different issues.

For example, if I recall correctly, David had a big hit on the hrtimers. 
And I wonder if perhaps Ingo's numbers are without hrtimers or something? 

The other possibility is that it's just a sparc suckiness issue, that 
simply doesn't show up on x86.

Could be and I intend to measure that to find out.

hrtimers should not be an issue anymore since this commit:

yeah, you are probably right when it comes to task migration policy 
impact - that can have effects in that range. (and that, you have to 
accept, is a fundamentally hard and fragile job to get right, as it 
involves observing the past and predicting the future out of it - at 
1.3 million events per second)

So above i was just talking about straight scheduling code overhead. 
(that cannot have been +10% of the total - as the whole scheduler only 
takes 7% total - TLB flush and FPU restore overhead included. Even the 
hrtimer bits were about 1% of the total.)

Try a non-NMI profile.

It's the whole of the try_to_wake_up() path that's the problem.

David, that makes no sense. A NMI profile is going to be a _lot_ more 
accurate than a non-NMI one. Asking somebody to do a clearly inferior 
profile to get "better numbers" is insane.

We've asked _you_ to do NMI profiling, it shouldn't be the other way 
around.

I wasn't able to on these systems, so instead I did cycle level
evaluation of the parts that have to run with interrupts disabled.

And as a result I found that wake_up() is now 4 times slower than it
was in 2.6.22, I even analyzed this for every single kernel release
till now.

It could be a sparc specific issue, because the call chain is deeper
and we eat a lot more register window spills onto the stack.

..and that's the one where you then pointed to hrtimers, and now you claim

At least I haven't seen any new analysis since then.

Oh, easily. In-order machines tend to have serious problems with indirect 
function calls in particular. x86, in contrast, tends to not even notice, 
especially if the indirect function is fairly static per call-site, and 
predicts well.

There is a reason my machine is 15-20 times faster than yours.

That was a huge increase going from 2.6.26 to 2.6.27, and has
been fixed.

The rest of the gradual release-to-release cost increase, however,
remains.

Ok will rerun the tests tomorrow. Just got back from SC08 need some time

You might also want to try net-next:

 [remote "net-next"]
        url = git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net-next-2.6.git
        fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/net-next/*

And with net-next we might even be able to get past that magic limit? 
net-next is linus-latest plus the latest and greatest networking bits:

 $ cat .git/config

 [remote "net-next"]
	url = git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net-next-2.6.git
	fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/net-next/*

... so might be worth a test. Just to satisfy our curiosity and to 
possibly close the entry :-)

Well, bits in net-next are new stuff for 2.6.29, not really regression fixes,
but yes, they should give nice tbench speedups.


Now, I wish sockets and pipes not going through dcache, not tbench affair
of course but real workloads...

running 8 processes on a 8 way machine doing a 

for (;;)
	close(socket(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, 0));

is slow as hell, we hit so many contended cache lines ...

ticket spin locks are slower in this case (dcache_lock for example
is taken twice when we allocate a socket(), once in d_alloc(), another one
in d_instantiate())

As you of course know, this used to be a ton worse.  At least now
these things are unhashed. :)

Well, this is dust compared to what we currently have.

To allocate a socket we :
0) Do the usual file manipulation (pretty scalable these days)
   (but recent drop_file_write_access() and co slow down a bit)
1) allocate an inode with new_inode()
    This function :
     - locks inode_lock,
     - dirties nr_inodes counter
     - dirties inode_in_use list  (for sockets, I doubt it is usefull)
     - dirties superblock s_inodes.
     - dirties last_ino counter
 All these are in different cache lines of course.
2) allocate a dentry
   d_alloc() takes dcache_lock,
   insert dentry on its parent list (dirtying sock_mnt->mnt_sb->s_root)
   dirties nr_dentry
3) d_instantiate() dentry  (dcache_lock taken again)
4) init_file() -> atomic_inc on sock_mnt->refcount (in case we want to umount this vfs ...)



At close() time, we must undo the things. Its even more expensive because
of the _atomic_dec_and_lock() that stress a lot, and because of two cache 
lines that are touched when an element is deleted from a list.

for (i = 0; i < 1000*1000; i++)
	close(socket(socket(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, 0));

yeah, i know - technically these are lots-of-kernel-releases effects 
so not bona fide latest-cycle regressions anyway. But it doesnt matter 
how we call them, we want improvement in these metrics.

hm, weird - since there's no real VFS namespace impact i fail to 
realize the fundamental need that causes us to hit the dcache_lock. 
(perhaps there's none and this is fixable)

The general concept of mapping sockets to fds is a fundamental and 
powerful abstraction. There are APIs that also connect them to the VFS 
namespace (such as unix domain sockets) - but those should be special 
cases, not impacting normal TCP sockets.

In any event I'm happy to toss this from the regression list.

My sparc still shows the issues and I'll profile that independently.
I'm pretty sure it's the indirect calls and the deeper stack frames
(which == 128 bytes of extra stores at each level to save the register
window), but I need to prove that first.

Ahh.. Wow.... net-next gets us:

Throughput 2685.17 MB/sec 8 procs

Re: [Bug #11308] tbench regression on each kernel release from 2.6.22 -> 2.6.28

[Christoph Lameter]

AIM9 results:
		TCP		UDP
2.6.22		104868.00	489970.03
2.6.28-rc5	110007.00	518640.00
net-next	108207.00	514790.00

net-next looses here for some reason against 2.6.28-rc5. But the numbers
are better than 2.6.22 in any case.

I found that on current net-next, running oprofile in background can give better bench
results. Thats really curious... no ?


So the single loop on close(socket()), on all my 8 cpus is almost 10% faster if oprofile
is running... (20 secs instead of 23 secs)

Oh well, thats normal, since when a cpu is interrupted by a NMI, and
distracted by oprofile code, it doesnt fight with other cpus on dcache_lock
and other contended cache lines...

[Bug #11308] tbench regression on each kernel release from 2.6.22 -> 2.6.28

[Rafael J. Wysocki]

This message has been generated automatically as a part of a report
of regressions introduced between 2.6.26 and 2.6.27.

The following bug entry is on the current list of known regressions
introduced between 2.6.26 and 2.6.27.  Please verify if it still should
be listed and let me know (either way).

2.6.28-rc1-git1: Reported regressions 2.6.26 -> 2.6.27

[Rafael J. Wysocki]

[Here's something new, a list of regressions introduced between 2.6.26 and
2.6.27.  We haven't fixed all of them yet and they're still being reported.
Also, they need to be fixed as well as those introduced later (although they
may be considered as "less important").

Quite frankly, I don't know how this is going to work out, but I thought
it's worth trying.  Enjoy! ;-)]

This message contains a list of some regressions introduced between 2.6.26 and
2.6.27, for which there are no fixes in the mainline I know of.  If any of them
have been fixed already, please let me know.

If you know of any other unresolved regressions introduced between 2.6.26
and 2.6.27, please let me know either and I'll add them to the list.
Also, please let me know if any of the entries below are invalid.

Each entry from the list will be sent additionally in an automatic reply to
this message with CCs to the people involved in reporting and handling the
issue.
