Writeback implements its own worker pool - each bdi can be associated with a worker thread which is created and destroyed dynamically. The worker thread for the default bdi is always present and serves as the "forker" thread which forks off worker threads for other bdis. there's no reason for writeback to implement its own worker pool when using unbound workqueue instead is much simpler and more efficient. This patch replaces custom worker pool implementation in writeback with an unbound workqueue. The conversion isn't too complicated but the followings are worth mentioning. * bdi_writeback->last_active, task and wakeup_timer are removed. delayed_work ->dwork is added instead. Explicit timer handling is no longer necessary. Everything works by either queueing / modding / flushing / canceling the delayed_work item. * bdi_writeback_thread() becomes bdi_writeback_workfn() which runs off bdi_writeback->dwork. On each execution, it processes bdi->work_list and reschedules itself if there are more things to do. The function also handles low-mem condition, which used to be handled by the forker thread. If the function is running off a rescuer thread, it only writes out limited number of pages so that the rescuer can serve other bdis too. This preserves the flusher creation failure behavior of the forker thread. * INIT_LIST_HEAD(&bdi->bdi_list) is used to tell bdi_writeback_workfn() about on-going bdi unregistration so that it always drains work_list even if it's running off the rescuer. Note that the original code was broken in this regard. Under memory pressure, a bdi could finish unregistration with non-empty work_list. * The default bdi is no longer special. It now is treated the same as any other bdi and bdi_cap_flush_forker() is removed. * BDI_pending is no longer used. Removed. * Some tracepoints become non-applicable. The following TPs are removed - writeback_nothread, writeback_wake_thread, writeback_wake_forker_thread, writeback_thread_start, writeback_thread_stop. Everything, including devices coming and going away and rescuer operation under simulated memory pressure, seems to work fine in my test setup.

Writeback conversion to workqueue will be based on top of wq/for-3.10 branch to take advantage of custom attrs and NUMA support for unbound workqueues. Mainline currently contains two commits which result in non-trivial merge conflicts with wq/for-3.10 and because block/for-3.10/core is based on v3.9-rc3 which contains one of the conflicting commits, we need a pre-merge-window merge anyway. Let's pull v3.9-rc5 into wq/for-3.10 so that the block tree doesn't suffer from workqueue merge conflicts. The two conflicts and their resolutions: * e68035fb ("workqueue: convert to idr_alloc()") in mainline changes worker_pool_assign_id() to use idr_alloc() instead of the old idr interface. worker_pool_assign_id() goes through multiple locking changes in wq/for-3.10 causing the following conflict. static int worker_pool_assign_id(struct worker_pool *pool) { int ret; <<<<<<< HEAD lockdep_assert_held(&wq_pool_mutex); do { if (!idr_pre_get(&worker_pool_idr, GFP_KERNEL)) return -ENOMEM; ret = idr_get_new(&worker_pool_idr, pool, &pool->id); } while (ret == -EAGAIN); ======= mutex_lock(&worker_pool_idr_mutex); ret = idr_alloc(&worker_pool_idr, pool, 0, 0, GFP_KERNEL); if (ret >= 0) pool->id = ret; mutex_unlock(&worker_pool_idr_mutex); >>>>>>> c67bf5361e7e66a0ff1f4caf95f89347d55dfb89 return ret < 0 ? ret : 0; } We want locking from the former and idr_alloc() usage from the latter, which can be combined to the following. static int worker_pool_assign_id(struct worker_pool *pool) { int ret; lockdep_assert_held(&wq_pool_mutex); ret = idr_alloc(&worker_pool_idr, pool, 0, 0, GFP_KERNEL); if (ret >= 0) { pool->id = ret; return 0; } return ret; } * eb283428 ("workqueue: fix possible pool stall bug in wq_unbind_fn()") updated wq_unbind_fn() such that it has single larger for_each_std_worker_pool() loop instead of two separate loops with a schedule() call inbetween. wq/for-3.10 renamed pool->assoc_mutex to pool->manager_mutex causing the following conflict (earlier function body and comments omitted for brevity). static void wq_unbind_fn(struct work_struct *work) { ... spin_unlock_irq(&pool->lock); <<<<<<< HEAD mutex_unlock(&pool->manager_mutex); } ======= mutex_unlock(&pool->assoc_mutex); >>>>>>> c67bf5361e7e66a0ff1f4caf95f89347d55dfb89 schedule(); <<<<<<< HEAD for_each_cpu_worker_pool(pool, cpu) ======= >>>>>>> c67bf5361e7e66a0ff1f4caf95f89347d55dfb89 atomic_set(&pool->nr_running, 0); spin_lock_irq(&pool->lock); wake_up_worker(pool); spin_unlock_irq(&pool->lock); } } The resolution is mostly trivial. We want the control flow of the latter with the rename of the former. static void wq_unbind_fn(struct work_struct *work) { ... spin_unlock_irq(&pool->lock); mutex_unlock(&pool->manager_mutex); schedule(); atomic_set(&pool->nr_running, 0); spin_lock_irq(&pool->lock); wake_up_worker(pool); spin_unlock_irq(&pool->lock); } } Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>

workqueue: update sysfs interface to reflect NUMA awareness and a kernel param to disable NUMA affinity Unbound workqueues are now NUMA aware. Let's add some control knobs and update sysfs interface accordingly. * Add kernel param workqueue.numa_disable which disables NUMA affinity globally. * Replace sysfs file "pool_id" with "pool_ids" which contain node:pool_id pairs. This change is userland-visible but "pool_id" hasn't seen a release yet, so this is okay. * Add a new sysf files "numa" which can toggle NUMA affinity on individual workqueues. This is implemented as attrs->no_numa whichn is special in that it isn't part of a pool's attributes. It only affects how apply_workqueue_attrs() picks which pools to use. After "pool_ids" change, first_pwq() doesn't have any user left. Removed. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Reviewed-by: Lai Jiangshan <laijs@cn.fujitsu.com>

Currently, an unbound workqueue has single current, or first, pwq (pool_workqueue) to which all new work items are queued. This often isn't optimal on NUMA machines as workers may jump around across node boundaries and work items get assigned to workers without any regard to NUMA affinity. This patch implements NUMA affinity for unbound workqueues. Instead of mapping all entries of numa_pwq_tbl[] to the same pwq, apply_workqueue_attrs() now creates a separate pwq covering the intersecting CPUs for each NUMA node which has online CPUs in @attrs->cpumask. Nodes which don't have intersecting possible CPUs are mapped to pwqs covering whole @attrs->cpumask. As CPUs come up and go down, the pool association is changed accordingly. Changing pool association may involve allocating new pools which may fail. To avoid failing CPU_DOWN, each workqueue always keeps a default pwq which covers whole attrs->cpumask which is used as fallback if pool creation fails during a CPU hotplug operation. This ensures that all work items issued on a NUMA node is executed on the same node as long as the workqueue allows execution on the CPUs of the node. As this maps a workqueue to multiple pwqs and max_active is per-pwq, this change the behavior of max_active. The limit is now per NUMA node instead of global. While this is an actual change, max_active is already per-cpu for per-cpu workqueues and primarily used as safety mechanism rather than for active concurrency control. Concurrency is usually limited from workqueue users by the number of concurrently active work items and this change shouldn't matter much. v2: Fixed pwq freeing in apply_workqueue_attrs() error path. Spotted by Lai. v3: The previous version incorrectly made a workqueue spanning multiple nodes spread work items over all online CPUs when some of its nodes don't have any desired cpus. Reimplemented so that NUMA affinity is properly updated as CPUs go up and down. This problem was spotted by Lai Jiangshan. v4: destroy_workqueue() was putting wq->dfl_pwq and then clearing it; however, wq may be freed at any time after dfl_pwq is put making the clearing use-after-free. Clear wq->dfl_pwq before putting it. v5: apply_workqueue_attrs() was leaking @tmp_attrs, @new_attrs and @pwq_tbl after success. Fixed. Retry loop in wq_update_unbound_numa_attrs() isn't necessary as application of new attrs is excluded via CPU hotplug. Removed. Documentation on CPU affinity guarantee on CPU_DOWN added.

Currently, an unbound workqueue has only one "current" pool_workqueue associated with it. It may have multple pool_workqueues but only the first pool_workqueue servies new work items. For NUMA affinity, we want to change this so that there are multiple current pool_workqueues serving different NUMA nodes. Introduce workqueue->numa_pwq_tbl[] which is indexed by NUMA node and points to the pool_workqueue to use for each possible node. This replaces first_pwq() in __queue_work() and workqueue_congested(). numa_pwq_tbl[] is currently initialized to point to the same pool_workqueue as first_pwq() so this patch doesn't make any behavior changes. v2: Use rcu_dereference_raw() in unbound_pwq_by_node() as the function may be called only with wq->mutex held.

Move wq->flags and ->cpu_pwqs to the end of workqueue_struct and align them to the cacheline. These two fields are used in the work item issue path and thus hot. The scheduled NUMA affinity support will add dispatch table at the end of workqueue_struct and relocating these two fields will allow us hitting only single cacheline on hot paths. Note that wq->pwqs isn't moved although it currently is being used in the work item issue path for unbound workqueues. The dispatch table mentioned above will replace its use in the issue path, so it will become cold once NUMA support is implemented.

Currently, when exposing attrs of an unbound workqueue via sysfs, the workqueue_attrs of first_pwq() is used as that should equal the current state of the workqueue. The planned NUMA affinity support will make unbound workqueues make use of multiple pool_workqueues for different NUMA nodes and the above assumption will no longer hold. Introduce workqueue->unbound_attrs which records the current attrs in effect and use it for sysfs instead of first_pwq()->attrs.

When worker tasks are created using kthread_create_on_node(), currently only per-cpu ones have the matching NUMA node specified. All unbound workers are always created with NUMA_NO_NODE. Now that an unbound worker pool may have an arbitrary cpumask associated with it, this isn't optimal. Add pool->node which is determined by the pool's cpumask. If the pool's cpumask is contained inside a NUMA node proper, the pool is associated with that node, and all workers of the pool are created on that node. This currently only makes difference for unbound worker pools with cpumask contained inside single NUMA node, but this will serve as foundation for making all unbound pools NUMA-affine.

Currently, all workqueue workers which have negative nice value has 'H' postfixed to their names. This is necessary for per-cpu workers as they use the CPU number instead of pool->id to identify the pool and the 'H' postfix is the only thing distinguishing normal and highpri workers. As workers for unbound pools use pool->id, the 'H' postfix is purely informational. TASK_COMM_LEN is 16 and after the static part and delimiters, there are only five characters left for the pool and worker IDs. We're expecting to have more unbound pools with the scheduled NUMA awareness support. Let's drop the non-essential 'H' postfix from unbound kworker name. While at it, restructure kthread_create*() invocation to help future NUMA related changes. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Reviewed-by: Lai Jiangshan <laijs@cn.fujitsu.com>

29c91e99 ("workqueue: implement attribute-based unbound worker_pool management") implemented attrs based worker_pool matching. It tried to avoid false negative when comparing cpumasks with custom hash function; unfortunately, the hash and comparison functions fail to ignore CPUs which are not possible. It incorrectly assumed that bitmap_copy() skips leftover bits in the last word of bitmap and cpumask_equal() ignores impossible CPUs. This patch updates attrs->cpumask handling such that impossible CPUs are properly ignored. * Hash and copy functions no longer do anything special. They expect their callers to clear impossible CPUs. * alloc_workqueue_attrs() initializes the cpumask to cpu_possible_mask instead of setting all bits and explicit cpumask_setall() for unbound_std_wq_attrs[] in init_workqueues() is dropped. * apply_workqueue_attrs() is now responsible for ignoring impossible CPUs.

A result of ENOENT from a read request for an object that's part of an rbd image indicates that there is a hole in that portion of the image. Similarly, a short read for such an object indicates that the remainder of the read should be interpreted a full read with zeros filling out the end of the request. This behavior is not correct for objects that are not backing rbd image data. Currently rbd_img_obj_request_callback() assumes it should be done for all objects. Change rbd_img_obj_request_callback() so it only does this zeroing for image objects. Encapsulate that special handling in its own function. Add an assertion that the image object request is a bio request, since we assume that (and we currently don't support any other types). This resolves a problem identified here: http://tracker.ceph.com/issues/4559 The regression was introduced by bf0d5f50.

Commit 3e7fc708 ("ia64 idle: delete pm_idle") in 3.9-rc1 didn't finish the job, leaving an un-initialized reference to (*idle)().

A user reported a panic where we were panicing somewhere in tree_backref_for_extent from scrub_print_warning. He only captured the trace but looking at scrub_print_warning we drop the path right before we mess with the extent buffer to print out a bunch of stuff, which isn't right. So fix this by dropping the path after we use the eb if we need to.

This patch fixes a regression introduced in v3.8-rc1 code where a failed target_check_reservation() check in target_setup_cmd_from_cdb() was causing an incorrect SAM_STAT_GOOD status to be returned during a WRITE operation performed by an unregistered / unreserved iscsi initiator port. This regression is only effecting iscsi-target due to a special case check for TCM_RESERVATION_CONFLICT within iscsi_target_erl1.c:iscsit_execute_cmd(), and was still correctly disallowing WRITE commands from backend submission for unregistered / unreserved initiator ports, while returning the incorrect SAM_STAT_GOOD status due to the missing SAM_STAT_RESERVATION_CONFLICT assignment. This regression was first introduced with: commit de103c93 Author: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Date: Tue Nov 6 12:24:09 2012 -0800 target: pass sense_reason as a return value Go ahead and re-add the missing SAM_STAT_RESERVATION_CONFLICT assignment during a target_check_reservation() failure, so that iscsi-target code sends the correct SCSI status. All other fabrics using target_submit_cmd_*() with a RESERVATION_CONFLICT call to transport_generic_request_failure() are not effected by this bug.

This patch adds a VHOST_SCSI_FEATURES mask minus VIRTIO_RING_F_EVENT_IDX so that vhost-scsi-pci userspace will strip this feature bit once GET_FEATURES reports it as being unsupported on the host. This is to avoid a bug where ->handle_kicks() are missed when EVENT_IDX is enabled by default in userspace code. (mst: Rename to VHOST_SCSI_FEATURES + add comment) Acked-by: Michael S.

This reverts commit 18693050 ("mm: introduce VM_POPULATE flag to better deal with racy userspace programs"). VM_POPULATE only has any effect when userspace plays racy games with vmas by trying to unmap and remap memory regions that mmap or mlock are operating on. Also, the only effect of VM_POPULATE when userspace plays such games is that it avoids populating new memory regions that get remapped into the address range that was being operated on by the original mmap or mlock calls. Let's remove VM_POPULATE as there isn't any strong argument to mandate a new vm_flag.

Pull TTY/serial fixes from Greg Kroah-Hartman: "Here are some tty/serial driver fixes for 3.9. The big thing here is the fix for the huge mess we caused renaming the 8250 driver accidentally in the 3.7 kernel release, without realizing that there were users of the module options that suddenly broke. This is now resolved, and, to top the injury off, we have a backwards- compatible option for those users who got used to the new name since 3.7. Ugh, sorry about that.
