When ACPI SLIT table has an I/O locality (i.e. a locality unique to an I/O device), numa_set_distance() emits this warning message: NUMA: Warning: node ids are out of bound, from=-1 to=-1 distance=10 acpi_numa_slit_init() calls numa_set_distance() with pxm_to_node(), which assumes that all localities have been parsed with SRAT previously. SRAT does not list I/O localities, where as SLIT lists all localities including I/Os. Hence, pxm_to_node() returns NUMA_NO_NODE (-1) for an I/O locality. I/O localities are not supported and are ignored today, but emitting such warning message leads to unnecessary confusion. Change acpi_numa_slit_init() to avoid calling numa_set_distance() with NUMA_NO_NODE. Signed-off-by:

There was a large ebizzy performance regression that was bisected to commit 611ae8e3 (x86/tlb: enable tlb flush range support for x86). The problem was related to the tlb_flushall_shift tuning for IvyBridge which was altered. The problem is that it is not clear if the tuning values for each CPU family is correct as the methodology used to tune the values is unclear. This patch uses a conservative tlb_flushall_shift value for all CPU families except IvyBridge so the decision can be revisited if any regression is found as a result of this change. IvyBridge is an exception as testing with one methodology determined that the value of 2 is acceptable. Details are in the changelog for the patch "x86: mm: Change tlb_flushall_shift for IvyBridge". One important aspect of this to watch out for is Xen. The original commit log mentioned large performance gains on Xen. It's possible Xen is more sensitive to this value if it flushes small ranges of pages more frequently than workloads on bare metal typically do. Signed-off-by:

There was a large performance regression that was bisected to commit 611ae8e3 ("x86/tlb: enable tlb flush range support for x86"). This patch simply changes the default balance point between a local and global flush for IvyBridge. In the interest of allowing the tests to be reproduced, this patch was tested using mmtests 0.15 with the following configurations configs/config-global-dhp__tlbflush-performance configs/config-global-dhp__scheduler-performance configs/config-global-dhp__network-performance Results are from two machines Ivybridge 4 threads: Intel(R) Core(TM) i3-3240 CPU @ 3.40GHz Ivybridge 8 threads: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-3770 CPU @ 3.40GHz Page fault microbenchmark showed nothing interesting. Ebizzy was configured to run multiple iterations and threads. Thread counts ranged from 1 to NR_CPUS*2. For each thread count, it ran 100 iterations and each iteration lasted 10 seconds.

The patch addresses the problem. Next was a tlbflush microbenchmark written by Alex Shi at http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=133727348217113 . It measures access costs while the TLB is being flushed. The expectation is that if there are always full TLB flushes that the benchmark would suffer and it benefits from range flushing There are 320 iterations of the test per thread count. The number of entries is randomly selected with a min of 1 and max of 512. To ensure a reasonably even spread of entries, the full range is broken up into 8 sections and a random number selected within that section. iteration 1, random number between 0-64 iteration 2, random number between 64-128 etc This is still a very weak methodology. When you do not know what are typical ranges, random is a reasonable choice but it can be easily argued that the opimisation was for smaller ranges and an even spread is not representative of any workload that matters. To improve this, we'd need to know the probability distribution of TLB flush range sizes for a set of workloads that are considered "common", build a synthetic trace and feed that into this benchmark. Even that is not perfect because it would not account for the time between flushes but there are limits of what can be reasonably done and still be doing something useful. If a representative synthetic trace is provided then this benchmark could be revisited and the shift values retuned.

The scheduler benchmarks were somewhat inconclusive. They showed gains and losses and makes me reconsider how stable those benchmarks really are or if something else might be interfering with the test results recently. Network benchmarks were inconclusive. Almost all results were flat except for netperf-udp tests on the 4 thread machine. These results were unstable and showed large variations between reboots. It is unknown if this is a recent problems but I've noticed before that netperf-udp results tend to vary. Based on these results, changing the default for Ivybridge seems like a logical choice.

When choosing between doing an address space or ranged flush, the x86 implementation of flush_tlb_mm_range takes into account whether there are any large pages in the range. A per-page flush typically requires fewer entries than would covered by a single large page and the check is redundant. There is one potential exception. THP migration flushes single THP entries and it conceivably would benefit from flushing a single entry instead of the mm. However, this flush is after a THP allocation, copy and page table update potentially with any other threads serialised behind it. In comparison to that, the flush is noise. It makes more sense to optimise balancing to require fewer flushes than to optimise the flush itself. This patch deletes the redundant huge page check. Signed-off-by:

Bisection between 3.11 and 3.12 fingered commit 9824cf97 ("mm: vmstats: tlb flush counters") to cause overhead problems. The counters are undeniably useful but how often do we really need to debug TLB flush related issues? It does not justify taking the penalty everywhere so make it a debugging option. Signed-off-by:

This is under CAP_SYS_ADMIN, but Smatch complains that mask comes from the user and the test for "mask > 0xf" can underflow. The fix is simple: amd_set_subcaches() should hand down not an 'int' but an 'unsigned long' like it was originally indended to do. Signed-off-by:

The workaround for this Erratum is included in AGESA. But BIOSes spun only after Jan2014 will have the fix (atleast server versions of the chip). The erratum affects both embedded and server platforms and since we cannot say with certainity that ALL BIOSes on systems out in the field will have the fix, we should probably insulate ourselves in case BIOS does not do the right thing or someone is using old BIOSes. Refer to Revision Guide for AMD F16h models 00h-0fh, document 51810 Rev. 3.04, November2013 for details on the Erratum. Tested the patch on Fam16h server platform and it works fine. Signed-off-by:

Bugzilla: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=64791 When a cpu is downed on a system, the irqs on the cpu are assigned to other cpus. It is possible, however, that when a cpu is downed there aren't enough free vectors on the remaining cpus to account for the vectors from the cpu that is being downed. This results in an interesting "overflow" condition where irqs are "assigned" to a CPU but are not handled. For example, when downing cpus on a 1-64 logical processor system: <snip> [ 232.021745] smpboot: CPU 61 is now offline [ 238.480275] smpboot: CPU 62 is now offline [ 245.991080] ------------[ cut here ]------------ [ 245.996270] WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 0 at net/sched/sch_generic.c:264 dev_watchdog+0x246/0x250() [ 246.005688] NETDEV WATCHDOG: p786p1 (ixgbe): transmit queue 0 timed out [ 246.013070] Modules linked in: lockd sunrpc iTCO_wdt iTCO_vendor_support sb_edac ixgbe microcode e1000e pcspkr joydev edac_core lpc_ich ioatdma ptp mdio mfd_core i2c_i801 dca pps_core i2c_core wmi acpi_cpufreq isci libsas scsi_transport_sas [ 246.037633] CPU: 0 PID: 0 Comm: swapper/0 Not tainted 3.12.0+ #14 [ 246.044451] Hardware name: Intel Corporation S4600LH ........../SVRBD-ROW_T, BIOS SE5C600.86B.01.08.0003.022620131521 02/26/2013 [ 246.057371] 0000000000000009 ffff88081fa03d40 ffffffff8164fbf6 ffff88081fa0ee48 [ 246.065728] ffff88081fa03d90 ffff88081fa03d80 ffffffff81054ecc ffff88081fa13040 [ 246.074073] 0000000000000000 ffff88200cce0000 0000000000000040 0000000000000000 [ 246.082430] Call Trace: [ 246.085174] <IRQ> [<ffffffff8164fbf6>] dump_stack+0x46/0x58 [ 246.091633] [<ffffffff81054ecc>] warn_slowpath_common+0x8c/0xc0 [ 246.098352] [<ffffffff81054fb6>] warn_slowpath_fmt+0x46/0x50 [ 246.104786] [<ffffffff815710d6>] dev_watchdog+0x246/0x250 [ 246.110923] [<ffffffff81570e90>] ? dev_deactivate_queue.constprop.31+0x80/0x80 [ 246.119097] [<ffffffff8106092a>] call_timer_fn+0x3a/0x110 [ 246.125224] [<ffffffff8106280f>] ? update_process_times+0x6f/0x80 [ 246.132137] [<ffffffff81570e90>] ? dev_deactivate_queue.constprop.31+0x80/0x80 [ 246.140308] [<ffffffff81061db0>] run_timer_softirq+0x1f0/0x2a0 [ 246.146933] [<ffffffff81059a80>] __do_softirq+0xe0/0x220 [ 246.152976] [<ffffffff8165fedc>] call_softirq+0x1c/0x30 [ 246.158920] [<ffffffff810045f5>] do_softirq+0x55/0x90 [ 246.164670] [<ffffffff81059d35>] irq_exit+0xa5/0xb0 [ 246.170227] [<ffffffff8166062a>] smp_apic_timer_interrupt+0x4a/0x60 [ 246.177324] [<ffffffff8165f40a>] apic_timer_interrupt+0x6a/0x70 [ 246.184041] <EOI> [<ffffffff81505a1b>] ? cpuidle_enter_state+0x5b/0xe0 [ 246.191559] [<ffffffff81505a17>] ? cpuidle_enter_state+0x57/0xe0 [ 246.198374] [<ffffffff81505b5d>] cpuidle_idle_call+0xbd/0x200 [ 246.204900] [<ffffffff8100b7ae>] arch_cpu_idle+0xe/0x30 [ 246.210846] [<ffffffff810a47b0>] cpu_startup_entry+0xd0/0x250 [ 246.217371] [<ffffffff81646b47>] rest_init+0x77/0x80 [ 246.223028] [<ffffffff81d09e8e>] start_kernel+0x3ee/0x3fb [ 246.229165] [<ffffffff81d0989f>] ? repair_env_string+0x5e/0x5e [ 246.235787] [<ffffffff81d095a5>] x86_64_start_reservations+0x2a/0x2c [ 246.242990] [<ffffffff81d0969f>] x86_64_start_kernel+0xf8/0xfc [ 246.249610] ---[ end trace fb74fdef54d79039 ]--- [ 246.254807] ixgbe 0000:c2:00.0 p786p1: initiating reset due to tx timeout [ 246.262489] ixgbe 0000:c2:00.0 p786p1: Reset adapter Last login: Mon Nov 11 08:35:14 from 10.18.17.119 [root@(none) ~]# [ 246.792676] ixgbe 0000:c2:00.0 p786p1: detected SFP+: 5 [ 249.231598] ixgbe 0000:c2:00.0 p786p1: NIC Link is Up 10 Gbps, Flow Control: RX/TX [ 246.792676] ixgbe 0000:c2:00.0 p786p1: detected SFP+: 5 [ 249.231598] ixgbe 0000:c2:00.0 p786p1: NIC Link is Up 10 Gbps, Flow Control: RX/TX (last lines keep repeating. ixgbe driver is dead until module reload.) If the downed cpu has more vectors than are free on the remaining cpus on the system, it is possible that some vectors are "orphaned" even though they are assigned to a cpu. In this case, since the ixgbe driver had a watchdog, the watchdog fired and notified that something was wrong. This patch adds a function, check_vectors(), to compare the number of vectors on the CPU going down and compares it to the number of vectors available on the system. If there aren't enough vectors for the CPU to go down, an error is returned and propogated back to userspace. v2: Do not need to look at percpu irqs v3: Need to check affinity to prevent counting of MSIs in IOAPIC Lowest Priority Mode v4: Additional changes suggested by Gong Chen. v5/v6/v7/v8: Updated comment text Signed-off-by:

On PA-Semi firmware, the instance-to-package callback doesn't seem to be implemented. We didn't check for error, however, thus subsequently passed the -1 value returned into stdout_node to thins like prom_getprop etc... Thus caused the firmware to load values around 0 (physical) internally as node structures. It somewhat "worked" as long as we had a NULL in the right place (address 8) at the beginning of the kernel, we didn't "see" the bug. But commit 5c0484e2 "powerpc: Endian safe trampoline" changed the kernel entry point causing that old bug to now cause a crash early during boot. This fixes booting on PA-Semi board by properly checking the return value from instance-to-package. Signed-off-by:

I was not able to recreate this via normal files. But I'm not sure they are safe. It may just be that the race window is much harder to hit. What seems to have happened (and what I have traced), is the file is being opened at the same time the file or directory is being deleted. As the dentry and inode locks are not held during the path walk, nor is the inodes ref counts being incremented, there is nothing saving these structures from being discarded except for an rcu_read_lock(). The rcu_read_lock() protects against freeing of the inode, but it does not protect freeing of the inode_security_struct. Now if the freeing of the i_security happens with a call_rcu(), and the i_security field of the inode is not changed (it gets freed as the inode gets freed) then there will be no issue here. (Linus Torvalds suggested not setting the field to NULL such that we do not need to check if it is NULL in the permission check). Note, this is a hack, but it fixes the problem at hand. A real fix is to restructure the destroy_inode() to call all the destructor handlers from the RCU callback. But that is a major job to do, and requires a lot of work. For now, we just band-aid this bug with this fix (it works), and work on a more maintainable solution in the future.

This patch calls blk_cleanup_queue() for MQ to drain all pending requests first and release the reference counter of queue kobject, then blk_mq_free_queue() will be called in queue kobject's release handler when queue kobject's reference counter drops to zero.

Currently, the tx queue were selected implicitly in ndo_dfwd_start_xmit(). The will cause several issues: - NETIF_F_LLTX were removed for macvlan, so txq lock were done for macvlan instead of lower device which misses the necessary txq synchronization for lower device such as txq stopping or frozen required by dev watchdog or control path. - dev_hard_start_xmit() was called with NULL txq which bypasses the net device watchdog. - dev_hard_start_xmit() does not check txq everywhere which will lead a crash when tso is disabled for lower device. Fix this by explicitly introducing a new param for .ndo_select_queue() for just selecting queues in the case of l2 forwarding offload. netdev_pick_tx() was also extended to accept this parameter and dev_queue_xmit_accel() was used to do l2 forwarding transmission. With this fixes, NETIF_F_LLTX could be preserved for macvlan and there's no need to check txq against NULL in dev_hard_start_xmit(). Also there's no need to keep a dedicated ndo_dfwd_start_xmit() and we can just reuse the code of dev_queue_xmit() to do the transmission. In the future, it was also required for macvtap l2 forwarding support since it provides a necessary synchronization method.

In the past the IFA_PERMANENT flag indicated, that the valid and preferred lifetime where ignored. Since change fad8da3e ("ipv6 addrconf: fix preferred lifetime state-changing behavior while valid_lft is infinity") we honour at least the preferred lifetime on those addresses. As such the valid lifetime gets recalculated and updated to 0. If loopback address is added manually this problem does not occur. Also if NetworkManager manages IPv6, those addresses will get added via inet6_rtm_newaddr and thus will have a correct lifetime, too. Reported-by:
