Memory is internally accounted in bytes, using spinlock-protected 64-bit counters, even though the smallest accounting delta is a page. The counter interface is also convoluted and does too many things. Introduce a new lockless word-sized page counter API, then change all memory accounting over to it. The translation from and to bytes then only happens when interfacing with userspace. The removed locking overhead is noticable when scaling beyond the per-cpu charge caches - on a 4-socket machine with 144-threads, the following test shows the performance differences of 288 memcgs concurrently running a page fault benchmark: vanilla: 18631648.500498 task-clock (msec) # 140.643 CPUs utilized ( +- 0.33% ) 1,380,638 context-switches # 0.074 K/sec ( +- 0.75% ) 24,390 cpu-migrations # 0.001 K/sec ( +- 8.44% ) 1,843,305,768 page-faults # 0.099 M/sec ( +- 0.00% ) 50,134,994,088,218 cycles # 2.691 GHz ( +- 0.33% ) <not supported> stalled-cycles-frontend <not supported> stalled-cycles-backend 8,049,712,224,651 instructions # 0.16 insns per cycle ( +- 0.04% ) 1,586,970,584,979 branches # 85.176 M/sec ( +- 0.05% ) 1,724,989,949 branch-misses # 0.11% of all branches ( +- 0.48% ) 132.474343877 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.21% ) lockless: 12195979.037525 task-clock (msec) # 133.480 CPUs utilized ( +- 0.18% ) 832,850 context-switches # 0.068 K/sec ( +- 0.54% ) 15,624 cpu-migrations # 0.001 K/sec ( +- 10.17% ) 1,843,304,774 page-faults # 0.151 M/sec ( +- 0.00% ) 32,811,216,801,141 cycles # 2.690 GHz ( +- 0.18% ) <not supported> stalled-cycles-frontend <not supported> stalled-cycles-backend 9,999,265,091,727 instructions # 0.30 insns per cycle ( +- 0.10% ) 2,076,759,325,203 branches # 170.282 M/sec ( +- 0.12% ) 1,656,917,214 branch-misses # 0.08% of all branches ( +- 0.55% ) 91.369330729 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.45% ) On top of improved scalability, this also gets rid of the icky long long types in the very heart of memcg, which is great for 32 bit and also makes the code a lot more readable. Notable differences between the old and new API: - res_counter_charge() and res_counter_charge_nofail() become page_counter_try_charge() and page_counter_charge() resp. to match the more common kernel naming scheme of try_do()/do() - res_counter_uncharge_until() is only ever used to cancel a local counter and never to uncharge bigger segments of a hierarchy, so it's replaced by the simpler page_counter_cancel() - res_counter_set_limit() is replaced by page_counter_limit(), which expects its callers to serialize against themselves - res_counter_memparse_write_strategy() is replaced by page_counter_limit(), which rounds down to the nearest page size - rather than up. This is more reasonable for explicitely requested hard upper limits. - to keep charging light-weight, page_counter_try_charge() charges speculatively, only to roll back if the result exceeds the limit. Because of this, a failing bigger charge can temporarily lock out smaller charges that would otherwise succeed. The error is bounded to the difference between the smallest and the biggest possible charge size, so for memcg, this means that a failing THP charge can send base page charges into reclaim upto 2MB (4MB) before the limit would have been reached. This should be acceptable.

Joonsoo Kim authored
Unlike SLUB, sometimes, object isn't started at the beginning of the slab in the SLAB. This causes the unalignment problem when after slab merging is supported by commit 12220dea ("mm/slab: support slab merge"). Alignment mismatch check is introduced ("mm/slab: fix unalignment problem on Malta with EVA due to slab merge") to prevent merge in this case. This causes undesirable result that merging happens between infrequently used kmem_caches if there are kmem_caches with same size and is 256 bytes, are merged into pool_workqueue rather than kmalloc-256, because kmem_caches for kmalloc are at the tail of the list. To prevent this situation, this patch reverses iteration order in find_mergeable() to find frequently used kmem_caches. This change helps to merge kmem_cache to frequently used kmem_caches, such as kmalloc kmem_caches.

Currently we print the slabinfo header in the seq start method, which makes it unusable for showing leaks, so we have leaks_show, which does practically the same as s_show except it doesn't show the header. However, we can print the header in the seq show method - we only need to check if the current element is the first on the list. This will allow us to use the same set of seq iterators for both leaks and slabinfo reporting, which is nice.

ocfs2_readpages() use nonblocking flag to avoid page lock inversion. It will trigger cluster hang because that flag OCFS2_LOCK_UPCONVERT_FINISHING is not cleared if nonblocking lock cannot be granted at once. The flag would prevent dc thread from downconverting. So other nodes cannot acheive this lockres for ever. So we should not set OCFS2_LOCK_UPCONVERT_FINISHING when receiving ast if nonblocking lock had already returned.

Error handling if creation of root of debugfs in ocfs2_init() fails is broken. Although error code is set we fail to exit ocfs2_init() with error and thus initialization ends with success. Later when mounting a filesystem, ocfs2 debugfs entries end up being created in the root of debugfs filesystem which is confusing. Fix the error handling to bail out. Coverity id: 1227009.

Filesize is not a good indication that the file needs to be synced. An example where this breaks is: 1. Open the file in O_SYNC|O_RDWR 2. Read a small portion of the file (say 64 bytes) 3. Lseek to starting of the file 4. Write 64 bytes If the node crashes, it is not written out to disk because this was not committed in the journal and the other node which reads the file after recovery reads stale data (even if the write on the other node was successful) Signed-off-by: Goldwyn Rodrigues <rgoldwyn@suse.de> Reviewed-by: Mark Fasheh <mfasheh@suse.de> Cc: Joel Becker <jlbec@evilplan.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Set nn_persistent_error to -ENOTCONN will stop reconnect since the "stop" condition in o2net_start_connect() will be true. stop = (nn->nn_sc || (nn->nn_persistent_error && (nn->nn_persistent_error != -ENOTCONN || timeout == 0))); This will make connection never be established if the first connection request is lost. Set nn_persistent_error to 0 when connect expired to fix this. With this changes, dlm will not be waken up when connect expired, this is OK since dlm depends on network, dlm can do nothing in this case if waken up. Let it wait there for network recover and connect built again to continue.

Node A sends master query request to node B which is the master. At this time lockres happens to be on purgelist. dlm_master_request_handler gets the dlm spinlock, finds the resource and releases the dlm spin lock. Right at this dlm_thread on this node could purge the lockres. dlm_master_request_handler can then acquire lockres spinlock and reply to Node A that node B is the master even though lockres on node B is purged. The above scenario will now make node A falsely think node B is the master which is inconsistent. Further if another node C tries to master the same resource, every node will respond they are not the master. Node C then masters the resource and sends assert master to all nodes. This will now make node A crash with the following message. dlm_assert_master_handler:1831 ERROR: DIE! Mastery assert from 9, but current owner is 10!

The change from \d+ to .+ inside __aligned() means that the following structure: struct test { u8 a __aligned(2); u8 b __aligned(2); }; essentially gets modified to struct test { u8 a; }; for purposes of kernel-doc, thus dropping a struct member, which in turns causes warnings and invalid kernel-doc generation.

dma_debug_init() is called by architecture specific code at different levels, but typically as a fs_initcall due to the debugfs initialization. Some platforms may have early callers of the DMA-API, running prior to the fs_initcall() level, which is not much of an issue unless CONFIG_DMA_API_DEBUG is set. When the DMA-API debugging facilities are turned on a caller will go through: debug_dma_map_{single,page} -> dma_mapping_error (inline function usually) -> debug_dma_mapping_error -> get_hash_bucket Calling get_hash_bucket() returns a valid hash value since we hash on high bits of the dma_addr cookie, but we will grab an unitialized spinlock, which typically won't crash but produce a warning, the real crash will however happen during the bucket list traversal because the list has not been initialized yet. An obvious solution is of course to move some of the offenders to run after the fs_initcall level, but since this might not always be an option, we add a flag "dma_debug_initialized" which is set to false by default, and set to true once dma_debug_init() has had a chance to run. The dma_debug_disabled() helper function previously introduced just needs to check for dma_debug_initialized to allow the caller to proceed or not.

Pull irq domain updates from Thomas Gleixner: "The real interesting irq updates: - Support for hierarchical irq domains: For complex interrupt routing scenarios where more than one interrupt related chip is involved we had no proper representation in the generic interrupt infrastructure so far. That made people implement rather ugly constructs in their nested irq chip implementations. The main offenders are x86 and arm/gic. To distangle that mess we have now hierarchical irqdomains which seperate the various interrupt chips and connect them via the hierarchical domains. That keeps the domain specific details internal to the particular hierarchy level and removes the criss/cross referencing of chip internals. The resulting hierarchy for a complex x86 system will look like this: vector mapped: 74 msi-0 mapped: 2 dmar-ir-1 mapped: 69 ioapic-1 mapped: 4 ioapic-0 mapped: 20 pci-msi-2 mapped: 45 dmar-ir-0 mapped: 3 ioapic-2 mapped: 1 pci-msi-1 mapped: 2 htirq mapped: 0 Neither ioapic nor pci-msi know about the dmar interrupt remapping between themself and the vector domain. If interrupt remapping is disabled ioapic and pci-msi become direct childs of the vector domain. In hindsight we should have done that years ago, but in hindsight we always know better :) - Support for generic MSI interrupt domain handling We have more and more non PCI related MSI interrupts, so providing a generic infrastructure for this is better than having all affected architectures implementing their own private hacks. - Support for PCI-MSI interrupt domain handling, based on the generic MSI support. This part carries the pci/msi branch from Bjorn Helgaas pci tree to avoid a massive conflict. The PCI/MSI parts are acked by Bjorn. I have two more branches on top of this.

Pull scheduler updates from Ingo Molnar: "The main changes in this cycle are: - 'Nested Sleep Debugging', activated when CONFIG_DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP=y. This instruments might_sleep() checks to catch places that nest blocking primitives - such as mutex usage in a wait loop. Such bugs can result in hard to debug races/hangs. Another category of invalid nesting that this facility will detect is the calling of blocking functions from within schedule() -> sched_submit_work() -> blk_schedule_flush_plug(). There's some potential for false positives (if secondary blocking primitives themselves are not ready yet for this facility), but the kernel will warn once about such bugs per bootup, so the warning isn't much of a nuisance. This feature comes with a number of fixes, for problems uncovered with it, so no messages are expected normally. - Another round of sched/numa optimizations and refinements, for CONFIG_NUMA_BALANCING=y. - Another round of sched/dl fixes and refinements. Plus various smaller fixes and cleanups" * 'sched-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (54 commits) sched: Add missing rcu protection to wake_up_all_idle_cpus sched/deadline: Introduce start_hrtick_dl() for !CONFIG_SCHED_HRTICK sched/numa: Init numa balancing fields of init_task sched/deadline: Remove unnecessary definitions in cpudeadline.h sched/cpupri: Remove unnecessary definitions in cpupri.h sched/deadline: Fix rq->dl.pushable_tasks bug in push_dl_task() sched/fair: Fix stale overloaded status in the busiest group finding logic sched: Move p->nr_cpus_allowed check to select_task_rq() sched/completion: Document when to use wait_for_completion_io_*() sched: Update comments about CLONE_NEWUTS and CLONE_NEWIPC sched/fair: Kill task_struct::numa_entry and numa_group::task_list sched: Refactor task_struct to use numa_faults instead of numa_* pointers sched/deadline: Don't check CONFIG_SMP in switched_from_dl() sched/deadline: Reschedule from switched_from_dl() after a successful pull sched/deadline: Push task away if the deadline is equal to curr during wakeup sched/deadline: Add deadline rq status print sched/deadline: Fix artificial overrun introduced by yield_task_dl() sched/rt: Clean up check_preempt_equal_prio() sched/core: Use dl_bw_of() under rcu_read_lock_sched() sched: Check if we got a shallowest_idle_cpu before searching for least_loaded_cpu ...

Pull asm-generic asm/io.h rewrite from Arnd Bergmann: "While there normally is no reason to have a pull request for asm-generic but have all changes get merged through whichever tree needs them, I do have a series for 3.19. There are two sets of patches that change significant portions of asm/io.h, and this branch contains both in order to resolve the conflicts: - Will Deacon has done a set of patches to ensure that all architectures define {read,write}{b,w,l,q}_relaxed() functions or get them by including asm-generic/io.h. These functions are commonly used on ARM specific drivers to avoid expensive L2 cache synchronization implied by the normal {read,write}{b,w,l,q}, but we need to define them on all architectures in order to share the drivers across architectures and to enable CONFIG_COMPILE_TEST configurations for them - Thierry Reding has done an unrelated set of patches that extends the asm-generic/io.h file to the degree necessary to make it useful on ARM64 and potentially other architectures" * tag 'asm-generic-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arnd/asm-generic: (29 commits) ARM64: use GENERIC_PCI_IOMAP sparc: io: remove duplicate relaxed accessors on sparc32 ARM: sa11x0: Use void __iomem * in MMIO accessors arm64: Use include/asm-generic/io.h ARM: Use include/asm-generic/io.h asm-generic/io.h: Implement generic {read,write}s*() asm-generic/io.h: Reconcile I/O accessor overrides /dev/mem: Use more consistent data types Change xlate_dev_{kmem,mem}_ptr() prototypes ARM: ixp4xx: Properly override I/O accessors ARM: ixp4xx: Fix build with IXP4XX_INDIRECT_PCI ARM: ebsa110: Properly override I/O accessors ARC: Remove redundant PCI_IOBASE declaration documentation: memory-barriers: clarify relaxed io accessor semantics x86: io: implement dummy relaxed accessor macros for writes tile: io: implement dummy relaxed accessor macros for writes sparc: io: implement dummy relaxed accessor macros for writes powerpc: io: implement dummy relaxed accessor macros for writes parisc: io: implement dummy relaxed accessor macros for writes mn10300: io: implement dummy relaxed accessor macros for writes ...
