2.6.16-rc6-mm2

[Andrew Morton]

ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/akpm/patches/2.6/2.6.17-rc6/2.6.17-rc6-mm2/


- Added the s390 git tree to the -mm lineup, as git-s390.patch (Martin
  Schwidefsky)

- ppc64 (on mac g5) fails to boot for me, due to changes in the powerpc tree.

- `make allnoconfig' builds will fail due to the IPC namespaces patches

- A reminder that I'm travelling for the next week and shall be more than
  usually useless.




Boilerplate:

- See the `hot-fixes' directory for any important updates to this patchset.

- To fetch an -mm tree using git, use (for example)

  git fetch git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/smurf/linux-trees.git v2.6.16-rc2-mm1

- -mm kernel commit activity can be reviewed by subscribing to the
  mm-commits mailing list.

        echo "subscribe mm-commits" | mail majordomo@vger.kernel.org

- If you hit a bug in -mm and it is not obvious which patch caused it, it is
  most valuable if you can perform a bisection search to identify which patch
  introduced the bug.  Instructions for this process are at

        http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/bisecting-mm-trees.txt

  But beware that this process takes some time (around ten rebuilds and
  reboots), so consider reporting the bug first and if we cannot immediately
  identify the faulty patch, then perform the bisection search.

- When reporting bugs, please try to Cc: the relevant maintainer and mailing
  list on any email.

You'll need to disable CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT, sorry.

Christoph, that is the last straw - I'll drop all these patches.  There's a
file in -mm Documentation/SubmitChecklist - please tape to to yor monitor.

page-flags.h was an inappropriate place for that code.

Would it be possible only the drop the patchset that caused this? 

This seems to be caused by the event counters and not by the zoned VM 
counters. I intentially try to separate these two. There are numerous 
issues still to be resolved for the zoned VM counters. I listed some in 
the header.

> page-flags.h was an inappropriate place for that code.

You mean I should move all the vm counters into separate header and c file 
right?

I've placed a rollup of 2.6.17-rc6-mm2 minus the zoned-vm and eventcounter
patches at

	http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/cl.bz2

Patches against that would suit.

I won't be in a position to do much merging or any testing for the next
week, so no rush.

Oh. So 2.6.17-rc6-mm2 is out with that counter patchset. 

If someone needs a fix then please try this patch that was posted last 
night. Seems that was too late for 2.6.17-rc6-mm2.


light weight counters: race free through local_t

One way of making the light weight counters race free for x86_64 and
i386 is to use local_t. With that those two platforms are fine.

However, the others fall back to atomic operations.

Maybe we could deal with that on per platform basis? Some platforms
may want to switch away from atomics to regular integers if preemption
is not configured. Most commercial Linux distros ship with preempt off.
So this would preserve the speed of light weight counters.

Some of the potential races with just plain integers are not that good.

F.e. if an integer is loaded via the per cpu area and then
we switch to another processor. At that point the per cpu area changes.
We may then increment the count from the old processor and store it
to the counter of the new processor. Ick.

Sorry that patch was still against mm1. Here is a fixed up version that 
applies cleanly against mm2:

light weight counters: race free through local_t

One way of making the light weight counters race free for x86_64 and
i386 is to use local_t. With that those two platforms are fine.

However, the others fall back to atomic operations.

Maybe we could deal with that on per platform basis? Some platforms
may want to switch away from atomics to regular integers if preemption
is not configured. Most commercial Linux distros ship with preempt off.
So this would preserve the speed of light weight counters.

Some of the potential races with just plain integers are not that good.

F.e. if an integer is loaded via the per cpu area and then
we switch to another processor. At that point the per cpu area changes.
We may then increment the count from the old processor and store it
to the counter of the new processor. Ick.

below is an updated patch that includes fixups for i386 - but the real 
fix should be to properly reduce the per-arch local.h footprint to the 
bare minimum possible, and to do this fix on the asm-generic headers.

I think an even better approach would be to use local_save_flags() / 
local_restore_flags () and then use a normal increment and get
rid of smp_processor_id completely.

I've never seen any evidence that the complex and bloated code generated by 
this is any better that just enabling/disabling interrupts. 

In the x86 world P4 has costly cli/sti, but I wouldn't expect
that problem to be very widespread.

local_irq_save()/local_irq_restore() you must have meant :-)

i think you are right - but if someone goes the trouble of implementing 
per-arch support for local increments then i'm not against it. (except 
if the generated code is grossly inefficient) There are architectures 
where cli/sti hurts alot.

In any case, on x86 we should switch to a cli/sti implementation indeed 
- it will quite likely have alot smaller footprint than __per_cpu_offset 
based approaches.

Although on x86_64 we'd probably be pretty OK if all per-cpu variables 
were in the PDA and were thus at a constant %gs-relative offset. But for 
now we only have data_offset in the PDA so there's one more unnecessary 
indirection.

I was refering to asm-generic/local.h

x86 doesn't need it IMHO - as long as the RMW is atomic as seen by the local
CPU it's ok to use a stale per CPU variable here. So using raw_smp_processor_id()
for this is ok.

I looked at this some time ago. The problem is that it would require
new relocation types implemented in the assembler/linker. So I kept
the current implementation.

But even the current code is ok because the access is atomic towards
the local CPU. If it's out of date by two cycles on preempt it doesn't
matter much.

I have previously suggested a lightweight solution that pins a process
to a cpu for the short duration that it accesses cpu local variables.

That is preempt_disable()/preempt_enable() effectively
It's also light weight as much as these things can be.

The difference being that preempt_disable() does not allow the code to
sleep.  There are some places where we want to use cpu local data and
the code can tolerate preemption and even sleeping, as long as the
process schedules back on the same cpu.

Seems like a pretty obscure case to optimize for.

Anyways if you want to do that you can always do

disable_preempt(); 
set thread affinity mask to current cpu
enable_preempt(); 
do weird stuff and sleep ...  ;
restore affinity mask

Can any of these people proposing "solutions" in this thread
demonstrate this stuff is actually performance critical?

You can't do this in general, because CPU hotplug will reset the
affinity mask if the CPU is unplugged. I'd just say: don't do that.

However you can get some similar functionality by putting stuff in
task_struct.

It would be easy to use this mechanism wrongly:

	thread 1 on CPU N		thread 2 on CPU N

	foo = per_cpu(...)
	<preempt>
					foo = per_cpu(...);
					foo++;
					per_cpu(...) = foo;
					<unpreempt>
	foo++;
	per_cpu(...) = foo;	// whoops


In which scenarios did you envisage it being used?

There are not many scenarios where this makes any sense.  One is where
the code is working on a collection of related cpu data and the whole
collection is protected by a per cpu mutex.  Taking the mutex stops
your race.  I doubt if we have any code like that yet.

The other possibility is to allow work to preempt the current process
while it spins in udelay().  This is a problem on systems that use the
cycle counter (TSC, ITC) and different cpus run at different rates.
See http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-ia64&m=113460274218885&w=2

I am not going to be too persistent about this facility.  If it seems
too risky or of too little use, then forget it.

broken local_t on i386

Nak. This is simply evidence of local.t breakage on i386. One cannot 
calculate the address of a per cpu area and then increment without 
disabling preemption. The process may have been moved to another processor 
between those two operations and will then increment the event counter of 
the former processor (which in turn may at the same time increment the 
same counter). The inc is not atomic in the sense that it syncs multiple 
processors. So we will have the race back.

The increment must occur directly through the atomic-vs-interrupt dec/inc 
on the local per cpu area *without* any use of *_smp_processor_id().

As far as I can see x86_64 does the right thing and it increments on the 
local per cpu area. The definition of __get_cpu_var is:

#define __get_cpu_var(var) (*RELOC_HIDE(&per_cpu__##var, __my_cpu_offset()))

i386 uses the asm-generic/percpu.h but provides its own 
implementation of local.t. That simply cannot work. i386
must provide a definition of __get_per_var that increments directly 
on the variable in the local per cpu area.

The definition for __get_cpu_var in asm-generic/percpu.h is:

#define __get_cpu_var(var) per_cpu(var, smp_processor_id())

This breaks the cpu_* operations for local.t on i386.

Also we have various forms of __raw_get_cpu_var() around. Is there any 
reason for their existence. The presence of these shows the assumption 
that one can determine the current processor id and then index into an 
array of per cpu areas. That is not possible with preemption enabled.

In the absence of a race free __get_cpu_var() i386 would need to fall 
back to atomic ops by using asm-generic/local.t.

It is also affected by your race. The inc would only be atomic if the counter
was in the PDA, but standard per cpu data isn't. So it has to follow 
a pointer and then it could already have switched.

[I think Ingo stated this earlier, but I didn't get -- sorry]

Fix would be to disable preemption. I don't think it needs cli/sti
on non preemptible kernels.

I thought the above would refer to a PDA memory area that is specially 
mapped by each processor? That is the only thing that would get this 
working right because we would map to a different PDA if the process 
would be mapped to a different processor.

Yuck. The advantage of local.t was that it does not need any of these 
tricks. What is the point of local.t if one needs to disable preemption?

It does, but the per cpu data that everybody uses doesn't reside in the PDA
because it wasn't possible to make this work with binutils

It would require a relocation relative to another symbol which isn't
really supported.

At some point I considered using runtime patching to work around
this limitation, but it would be some work and relatively complex.

So the PDA just contains a pointer to the real per CPU area and it's
added. Unfortunately it's three instructions or so and not atomic 
(mov, add, reference)

No atomic operations. Preemption just requires to increase a counter
in thread info.

Also on non preemptive kernels - which are the majority - it's a single
instruction on x86. I guess preempt users can live with a bit more
overhead ...

I'd love to know how anyone measured that (or indeed any other similar
xyz distro or xyz freely distributable relicable product)

Perhaps the new Ubuntu super-army can fix or extend binutils to handle
the needed relocations if they want extra performance on pre-emption
kernels ?

I dont think you need a relocation relative to another symbol. Map the 
pda to a virtual adress range. That is then translated with a 
processor specific page table to various physical addresses.

Per processor page tables are not really practical on x86-64. They would
get really messy because you would need to duplicate the top level
of the page tables per CPU.

The two instructions occur over and over again for each PDA reference. And 
then there are now two more instruction for disabling preempt and 
reenabling preempt.

A simple dec/inc <absolute location> would be nicely suitable for 
inlining per processor counters.

How would that work?

IMHO The linker cannot help with virtual to physical address translations. 
A linker that will link per processor would be amazing. What happens if 
the process is rescheduled? We dynamically relink to the new processor?

I thought you had some funky segment registers on i386 and x86_64. Cant 
they be switched on context switch? If an inc/dec could work relative to 
those then you would not need a virtual mapping.

Either changing the linker and telling everybody to upgrade 
or writing a mini linker that works at kernel boot time.

Upgrading binutils is imho not acceptable and doing
the runtime relocation would be a lot of code for 
questionable gain.

The segment register needs an offset. So you need the linker to generate
the offset from the base of the per cpu segment somehow. At compile time the 
address is not known so it cannot be done then.

To work around this we do it at runtime.

User space TLS has some specialized relocations for this, but they
are so hack^wspecialized that they are not usable for the kernel.

Define something like a big struct and use offsetof?

So the compiler is not able to generate an offset to the beginning of a 
data segment?

That is how the basic architecture specific PDA works (asm/pda.h)

But i don't see a good way to define a big struct for asm/percpu.h

Preprocessing would be too slow and getting all people to put
their per CPU variables into a single header also doesn't seem
like a good idea.

What happens if you put a section at zero and a section at non-fixed
address (aligned). In the asm macros you stick the variable in both,
using the zero based one for linker symbols and the non zero based one
for data, then discard the zero based one.

That used to work for old binutils which didn't care/spot if you were
discarding material you actually linked against. Not sure what todays
binutils does with it.

Hmmm. That is hotplug which I cannot enable on ia64. I checked this by
moving the #ifdef CONFIG_HOTPLUG

We need to move things aroind between files anyway - it's best that I drop
everything so it can all be refactored.  Please keep the same breakup
(patch swap_prefetch.c separately, reiser4 as well).

Also, it's really preferable that the kernel compile and work at each step
of the series.  V1 didn't come close.

So the series needs significant restructuring.

That would be nice.  I was worried about fixing the per-cpu errors in
page-flags.h because that adds lots of include dependencies and we'd
probably introduce build breakage.

Hi Andrew!

2.6.17-rc6-mm2 and -mm1 don't boot on my amd64 machine. When I select 
the kernel in grub my computer reboots.

FYI, on my AMD64 box it works just fine with PREEMPT (still without SMP).

I don't think I saw this bug caught by anyone yet.  I was getting
segmentation faults in modpost while building out of tree modules.  I'm
pretty sure the code should look like the following patch.  Otherwise,
it makes modname look like "vmlinux\tEXPORT_SYMBOL" which then fails
badly later on.

Seems that req->wb_page may be NULL.

This patch may fix it but we may miss an unstable page then. We may 
have to move the decrement of NR_UNSTABLE to a different location when
wb_page is still valid.

I guess this is correct. nfs_clear_page_writeback also ignores the page 
if req->wb_page == NULL. Trond?

Sorry I'm late in responding. I'm currently on vacation in Iceland.

This is most probably an issue with nfs_cancel_requests(). We shouldn't
be calling nfs_clear_page_writeback() without _first_ decrementing
NR_UNSTABLE. I'll have a look, but I may be a bit unresponsive until I
get to a new place with an internet connection.

Cheers,

thanks for the patch ! I gave it a try but req->wb_page seems bogus ?

It seems that req->wb_page is bogus after nfs_clear_page_writeback()
has run. So we need to do the statistics before.

But then we miss the decrement of NR_UNSTABLE when a page is freed before 
we get to that function. NR_UNSTABLE grows beyond bounds and the write 
throttling stalls processes.

So we need an additional dec_zone_state..

Sigh. There is another issue that the NR_DIRTY count is not decremented.

OK.  The powerpc tree in rc6-mm2 was fairly sick, but it looks like you
avoided the thus-far-known problems.

"unable to allocate DMA table".  Sergei,
ide-always-release-dma-engine.patch plays with that code.

Badari, it would be super-useful if you could retest with that reverted.

I don't know what happened there - it might well be a preexisting bug which
is triggered by the ide_allocate_dma_engine() failure.

Nope. Reverting the patch did not help. I ran into same panic on boot.

Thanks.   Reverting the below might fix it.


From: Sergei Shtylylov <sshtylyov@ru.mvista.com>

Release the DMA engine for the custom mapping IDE drivers also (for
example, siimage.c does allocate it in both I/O-mapped and custom-mapped
modes).  Remove useless code from the error path of
ide_allocate_dma_engine().

    Frankly speaking, I don't see how that can be possible. I haven't touched 
any *real* checks in ide_allocate_dma_engine(), so it should fail regardless 
of my patch. I'd rather supposed that pci_alloc_consistent() had failed...

It appears that Sergei may be correct. I get the same failure with that
one patch reverted.

Oh, OK, yes, sorry, you're right, I forgot.  pci_alloc_consistent() is
broken on powerpc in that kernel.

- If you hit a bug in -mm and it's not obvious which patch caused it, it is
  most valuable if you can perform a bisection search to identify which patch
  introduced the bug.  Instructions for this process are at

        http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/bisecting-mm-trees.txt

  But beware that this process takes some time (around ten rebuilds and
  reboots), so consider reporting the bug first and if we cannot immediately
  identify the faulty patch, then perform the bisection search.

- When reporting bugs, please try to Cc: the relevant maintainer and mailing
  list on any email.

Yeah, ramdisk does strange things.

That's two.  I guess I need to see if Neil left any other little timebombs
in there for us ;)

Mmmm, somthing strange is in this kernel. Is hangs the box in the middle
of the night, it looks like it got stuck on the scsi disk on an AHC
controller...I get no info on syslog.

Are there any changes in aic drivers ? It also has a raid array, perhaps
some change in md code is borking when cron jobs are run in the night...

diffstat will tell.

 b/drivers/scsi/aic7xxx/aic79xx_core.c      |   33 
 b/drivers/scsi/aic7xxx/aic79xx_osm.c       |  559

 b/drivers/scsi/aic7xxx/aic7xxx_osm.c       |   45 
 b/drivers/scsi/aic7xxx/aic7xxx_osm.h       |    5 

There are large numbers of changes to scsi core as well.  And MD.  And
everything else.

Can no info be obtained from sysrq-P or sysrq-T?

If it's running X then I'd suggest you quit from X overnight, see if
anything pops up on the screen, and to simplify using sysrq.
